circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. On the date of the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, as applicable, the Prospectus did not or will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company’s

or any of the Dealers and are based upon information furnished by the Dealer Manager in writing to the Company specifically for inclusion therein.

domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company, except to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnity provisions contained in Section 6 of this Agreement may be limited under applicable securities law and to the extent
that the enforceability of this Agreement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws that affect creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to the availability of remedies.

	 	4.1.	In connection with the Dealer Manager’s participation in the offer and sale of Shares (including, without limitation, any resales and transfers of Shares), the

 6 









	 	
except as set forth in the Prospectus as amended and supplemented and in the Authorized Sales Materials. 


 

	 	4.4.	The Dealer Manager will offer Shares, and in its agreements with Dealers will require that the Dealers offer Shares, only to persons who meet the financial
qualification and suitability standards set forth in the Prospectus as amended and supplemented or in any suitability letter or memorandum sent to the Dealer Manager by the Company. The Dealer Manager further agrees that the Company, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever and no commission will be paid to the Dealer Manager with respect to the portion of any subscription that is rejected.


 The Dealer Manager shall maintain, or in its agreements with Dealers shall require the Dealers to maintain, for
at least six years, a record of the information obtained to determine that an investor meets the financial qualification and suitability standards imposed on the offer and sale of the Shares (both at the time of the initial subscription and at the
time of any additional subscriptions). 
 In making these determinations as to financial qualification and suitability, the
Dealer Manager may rely on representations from (i) investment advisers who are not affiliated with a Dealer or (ii) banks acting as trustees or fiduciaries. With respect to the Dealer Manager’s obligation to maintain records of an
investor’s financial qualification and suitability, the Company agrees that the Dealer Manager can satisfy its obligations by contractually requiring such information to be maintained by the investment advisers or banks discussed in the
preceding sentence.

Dealer Manager agrees not to use any such material that has not been authorized by the Company. The Dealer Manager further agrees (a) not to deliver any Authorized Sales Materials to any person unless it is accompanied or preceded by the
Prospectus as amended and supplemented, (b) not to show or give to any investor or prospective investor or reproduce any material or writing that is supplied to it by the Company and marked “broker-dealer use only” or otherwise
bearing a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public and (c) not to show or give to any investor or prospective investor in a particular jurisdiction any material or writing that is
supplied to it by the Company if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public in such jurisdiction. 


 

	 	4.6.	 The Dealer Manager agrees to be bound by the terms of the Amended and Restated Escrow Agreement dated March 8, 2010, among UMB Bank,



  

 7 









	 	
N.A., as escrow agent, the Dealer Manager and the Company, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit B and the Dealer Manager further agrees that it will not represent or imply that
UMB Bank, N.A., as the escrow agent identified in the Prospectus, has investigated the desirability or advisability of an investment in the Company or has approved, endorsed or passed upon the merits of the Shares or of the Company, nor will the
Dealer Manager use the name of said escrow agent in any manner whatsoever in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares other than by acknowledgment that it has agreed to serve as escrow agent. 


 

	 	4.7.	The Dealer Manager will provide the Company with such information relating to the offer and sale of the Shares by it as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request or as may be requested to enable the Company to prepare such reports of sale as may be required to be filed under applicable federal or state securities laws. 


 

	 	4.8.	The Dealer Manager will permit a Dealer to participate in the Offering only if such Dealer is a member of FINRA. 


 

	5.	Obligations and Compensation of Dealer Manager. 

  

	 	5.1.	The Company hereby appoints the Dealer Manager as its agent and principal distributor during the Offering Period (as defined in Section 5.2) for the purpose
of finding, on a best-efforts basis, purchasers for the Shares for cash through the distribution channels contemplated herein. The Dealer Manager may also arrange for the sale of Shares for cash directly to clients and customers identified by the
Company on the terms and conditions stated herein and in the Prospectus. The Dealer Manager hereby accepts such agency and distributorship and agrees to use its best efforts to find purchasers for the Shares on said terms and conditions.


  

	 	5.2.	The “Offering Period” shall mean that period during which Shares may be offered for sale, commencing on the Effective Date of the Registration
Statement (but in no event prior to the Effective Date of the Registration Statement), during which period offers and sales of the Shares shall occur continuously in the jurisdictions in which the Shares are registered or qualified or exempt from
registration (as confirmed in writing by the Company to the Dealer Manager) unless and until the Offering is terminated, provided that the Dealer Manager and the Dealers will suspend or terminate offering Shares upon request of the Company at any
time and will resume offering Shares upon subsequent request of the Company. The Offering Period shall in all events terminate upon the sale of all of the Shares. Upon termination of the Offering Period, the Dealer Manager’s agency and this
Agreement shall terminate without obligation on the part of the Dealer Manager or the Company except as set forth in this Agreement.

	 	5.3.	Except as may be provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, which may be amended and supplemented from time to time, as compensation

 The
reduced selling price, selling commission and dealer manager fee will apply to the entire purchase. All commission rates and dealer manager

fees are calculated assuming a price per share of $10.00. For example, a purchase of 250,000 shares in a single transaction would result in a purchase price of $2,450,000 ($9.80 per share),
selling commissions of $112,500 and dealer manager fees of $75,000. 
 The Company will also reimburse the Dealer Manager for
all items of underwriter compensation referenced in the Prospectus to the extent the Prospectus indicates that they will be paid by the Company, provided that the Company’s reimbursement payments shall not cause (i) total underwriting
compensation to exceed 10% of gross proceeds from the Offering (excluding proceeds from the offering of Shares pursuant to the DRP), or (ii) total organization and offering expenses to exceed 15% of gross proceeds from the Offering. In
accordance with FINRA Rule 2310, the Company shall also pay directly or reimburse the Dealer Manager for bona fide invoiced due diligence expenses of the Dealers and non-participating broker-dealers, subject to the cap on organization and offering
expenses described above. 
 As described in the Prospectus, the Dealer Manager agrees to sell up to 5% of the Shares in the
primary offering to persons identified by the Company pursuant to the Company’s “friends and family” program. The purchase price for Shares under this program will be $9.35 per share, reflecting that selling commissions will not be
payable in connection with such sales. The Dealer Manager agrees to work together with the Company to implement this program and to execute sales under the program according to the procedures agreed upon by the Dealer Manager and the Company.

 In addition, as described in the Prospectus, the Dealer Manager may sell shares to Dealers, their retirement plans, their
representatives and the family members, IRAs and the qualified plans of their representatives at a purchase price of $9.35 per share, reflecting that selling commissions in the amount of $0.65 per share will not be payable in consideration of the
services rendered by such Dealers and representatives in the Offering. For purposes of this discount, a family member includes such person’s spouse, parent, child, sibling, mother- or father-in-law, son- or daughter-in law or brother- or
sister-in-law. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no commissions, payments or amounts whatsoever will be paid to the Dealer
Manager under this Section 5.3 unless or until the Company raises $2.5 million in the Offering from persons not affiliated with the Company or its sponsor (the “Minimum Offering”). Until the Minimum Offering is reached,
investments will be held in escrow. Until $66.7 million (the “Pennsylvania Minimum”) has been raised in the Offering from persons not affiliated with the Company or its sponsor, investments from Pennsylvania investors will be held
in a separate escrow and no commissions, payments or amounts whatsoever 
  

 10 








 
will be paid thereon to the Dealer Manager under this Section 5.3 unless and until the Pennsylvania Minimum has been reached, and then only with respect to such investments from
Pennsylvania investors as are released to the Company from such escrow. Until $10 million (the “Tennessee Minimum”) has been raised in the Offering from persons not affiliated with the Company or its sponsor, investments from
Tennessee investors will be held in a separate escrow and no commissions, payments or amounts whatsoever will be paid thereon to the Dealer Manager under this Section 5.3 unless and until the Tennessee Minimum has been reached, and then
only with respect to such investments from Tennessee investors as are released to the Company from such escrow. If the Minimum Offering is not reached within the time period specified in the Prospectus, investments will be returned to the investors
in accordance with the Prospectus. If the Pennsylvania Minimum is not obtained within the time period specified in the Prospectus, the investments from Pennsylvania investors will be returned or held for subsequent escrow periods in accordance with
the Prospectus. If the Tennessee Minimum is not obtained within the time period specified in the Prospectus, the investments from Tennessee investors will be returned to Tennessee investors in accordance with the Prospectus. 

The Company will not be liable or responsible to any Dealer for direct payment of commissions to such Dealer; it is the sole and
exclusive responsibility of the Dealer Manager for payment of commissions to Dealers. Notwithstanding the above, at its discretion, the Company may act as agent of the Dealer Manager by making direct payment of commissions to such Dealers without
incurring any liability therefor. 
  

	6.	Indemnification. 

  

	 	6.1.	 To the extent permitted by the Company’s charter and the provisions of Article II.G of the NASAA Guidelines, and subject to the limitations below,
the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Dealers and the Dealer Manager, their officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls such Dealer or Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (the
“Indemnified Persons”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (“Losses”), joint or several, to which such Indemnified Persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or
otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (i) in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any
Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or (ii) in any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company or on its behalf
specifically for the purpose of qualifying any or all of the Shares for sale under the securities laws of any jurisdiction or based upon written 



 

 11 









	 	
information furnished by the Company under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”) or
(iii) in any Authorized Sales Materials, or (b) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any
post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in any Blue Sky Application or Authorized Sales Materials a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. The Company will reimburse each Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending such Loss. 


Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such Loss or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished (x) to the Company by the
Dealer Manager or (y) to the Company or the Dealer Manager by or on behalf of any Dealer specifically for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them, any Blue Sky Application or any Authorized Sales Materials, and, further, the Company will not be liable in any such case if it is determined that such Dealer or the Dealer
Manager was at fault in connection with the Loss, expense or action. 
 The foregoing indemnity agreement of this
Section 6.1 is subject to the further condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in the Prospectus (or amendment or supplement thereto) that was eliminated
or remedied in any subsequent amendment or supplement thereto, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of an Indemnified Party from whom the person asserting any Losses purchased the Shares that are the subject thereof, if a copy of
the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented was not sent or given to such person at or prior to the time the subscription of such person was accepted by the Company, but only if a copy of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented had been
supplied to the Dealer Manager or the Dealer prior to such acceptance.  
  

	 	6.2.	 The Dealer Manager will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers and directors (including any person named in the Registration Statement,
with his consent, as about to become a director), each other person who has signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the



  

 12 









	 	
Securities Act (the “Company Indemnified Persons”), from and against any Losses to which any of the Company Indemnified Persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (i) in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in any Blue Sky Application or Authorized Sales Materials; or (b) the omission
or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in any Blue Sky
Application or Authorized Sales Materials a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that clauses (a) and (b) apply, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such
untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Dealer Manager specifically for use with reference to the Dealer Manager in the preparation of the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in preparation of any Blue Sky Application or
Authorized Sales Materials; or (c) any use of sales literature not authorized or approved by the Company or any use of “broker-dealer use only” materials with members of the public by the Dealer Manager in the offer and sale of the
Shares or any use of sales literature in a particular jurisdiction if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public in such jurisdiction; or (d) any untrue
statement made by the Dealer Manager or its representatives or agents or omission to state a fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in connection with the offer
and sale of the Shares; or (e) any material violation of this Agreement; or (f) any failure to comply with applicable laws governing privacy issues, money laundering abatement and anti-terrorist financing efforts, including applicable
rules of the SEC, FINRA and the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001; or (g) any other failure to comply with applicable rules of FINRA or federal or state securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Dealer Manager will
reimburse the aforesaid parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending such Loss, expense or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Dealer
Manager may otherwise have. 

  

	 	6.3.	 Each Dealer severally will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Dealer Manager, each of their officers and directors (including any person
named in the Registration Statement, with his consent, as about to become 


  

 13 









	 	
a director), each other person who has signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act (the “Dealer Indemnified Persons”) from and against any Losses to which a Dealer Indemnified Person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (i) in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective
date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in any Blue Sky Application or Authorized Sales Materials; or (b) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in any Blue Sky Application or Authorized Sales Materials a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that clauses (a) and (b) apply, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company or the Dealer Manager by or on behalf of the Dealer specifically for use with reference to the Dealer in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary
Prospectus used prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or supplement to any of them or in preparation of any Blue Sky Application or Authorized Sales Materials; or (c) any use of sales
literature not authorized or approved by the Company or any use of “broker-dealer use only” materials with members of the public by the Dealer in the offer and sale of the Shares or any use of sales literature in a particular jurisdiction
if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public in such jurisdiction; or (d) any untrue statement made by the Dealer or its representatives or agents or omission
to state a fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares; or (e) any material violation of this Agreement or the
Selected Dealer Agreement entered into between the Dealer Manager and the Dealer; or (f) any failure to comply with applicable laws governing privacy issues, money laundering abatement and anti-terrorist financing efforts, including applicable
rules of the SEC, FINRA and the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001; or (g) any other failure to comply with applicable rules of FINRA or federal or state securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Each such Dealer will reimburse
each Dealer Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such 


 

 14 









	 	
Loss, expense or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that such Dealer may otherwise have. 


 

	 	6.4.	Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify in writing the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The failure of an indemnified party to so notify the indemnifying party will relieve
the indemnifying party from any liability under this Section 6 as to the particular item for which indemnification is then being sought, but not from any other liability that it may have to any indemnified party. In case any such action
is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to
participate in the defense thereof, with separate counsel. Such participation shall not relieve such indemnifying party of the obligation to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable legal and other expenses (subject to Section 6.5)
incurred by such indemnified party in defending itself, except for such expenses incurred after the indemnifying party has deposited funds sufficient to effect the settlement, with prejudice, of the claim in respect of which indemnity is sought. Any
such indemnifying party shall not be liable to any such indemnified party on account of any settlement of any claim or action effected without the consent of such indemnifying party. Any indemnified party shall not be bound to perform or refrain
from performing any act pursuant to the terms of any settlement of any claim or action effected without the consent of such indemnified party. 

  

	 	6.5.	 The indemnifying party shall pay all legal fees and expenses of the indemnified party in the defense of such claims or actions; provided, however, that
the indemnifying party shall not be obliged to pay legal expenses and fees to more than one law firm in connection with the defense of similar claims arising out of the same alleged acts or omissions giving rise to such claims notwithstanding that
such actions or claims are alleged or brought by one or more parties against more than one indemnified party. If such claims or actions are alleged or brought against more than one indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall only be obliged
to reimburse the expenses and fees of the one law firm that has been selected by a majority of the indemnified parties against which such action is finally brought; and in the event a majority of such indemnified parties are unable to agree on which
law firm for which expenses or fees will be reimbursable by the indemnifying party, then payment shall be made to the first law firm of record representing an indemnified party against the action or claim. Such law firm shall be paid only to the
extent of services performed by such law firm and no reimbursement shall be 


  

 15 









	 	
payable to such law firm on account of legal services performed by another law firm. 

  

	7.	Survival of Provisions. 

  

	 	7.1.	The respective agreements, representations and warranties of the Company and the Dealer Manager set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Dealer Manager or any Dealer or any person controlling the Dealer Manager or any Dealer or by or on behalf of the Company or any person controlling the Company and
(b) the acceptance of any payment for the Shares. 

  

	 	7.2.	The respective agreements and obligations of the Company and the Dealer Manager set forth in Sections 3.7, 4.1, 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, 5.3, 6 through 10 and 12 through
13 of this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Dealer Manager or any Dealer or any person controlling the Dealer Manager or any Dealer or by or on
behalf of the Company or any person controlling the Company, (b) the acceptance of any payment for the Shares and (c) the termination of this Agreement. 


 

	8.	Applicable Law and Invalid Provision. 

  

	 	8.1.	This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of California; provided, however, that causes of action for violations of federal or state securities laws
shall not be governed by this Section 8.1. 

  

	 	8.2.	The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all
respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision was omitted. 

  

	9.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. Each counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall be an original contract, but all
counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

  

	10.	Successors and Assigns. 

  

	 	10.1.	This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Dealer Manager and the Company and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Dealers to the extent set forth in Sections 1, 3 and 6 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give to any other person any right, remedy or claim, except as otherwise
specifically provided herein. 

  

 16 









	 	10.2.	No party shall assign this Agreement or any right, interest or benefit under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party.


  

	11.	Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by the written agreement of the Dealer Manager and the Company. 


 

	12.	Term. Any party to this Agreement shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on 60 days’ written notice or immediately upon notice to the other party
in the event that such other party shall have failed to comply with any material provision hereof. If not sooner terminated, the Dealer Manager’s agency and this Agreement shall terminate upon termination of the Offering Period without
obligation on the part of the Dealer Manager or the Company, except as set forth in this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement, (a) the Company shall pay to the Dealer Manager all accrued amounts payable under Section 5
hereof at such time as such amounts become payable and (b) the Dealer Manager shall promptly deliver to the Company all records and documents in its possession that relate to the Offering and that are not designated as “dealer”
copies. 

  

	13.	Customer Complaints. Each party herby agrees to promptly provide to the other party copies of any written or otherwise documented complaints from customers of
the Dealer Manager or any Dealer received by such party relating in any way to the Offering (including, but not limited to, the manner in which the Shares are offered by the Dealer Manager or the Dealer). 


 

	14.	No Partnership. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to constitute the Dealer Manager as in association with or in partnership with the
Company; instead, this Agreement shall only constitute the Dealer Manager as a dealer authorized by the Company to sell and to manage the sale by others of the Shares according to the terms set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus
as amended or supplemented and in this Agreement. 

  

	15.	Submission of Orders. 

  

	 	15.1.	 Those persons who purchase Shares will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or the Dealer to make their checks payable to “UMB Bank, N.A., as
escrow agent for KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc.” or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company, except with respect to Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors. Checks from Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors must be
made payable to “UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc.” until the Pennsylvania Minimum and Tennessee Minimum, respectively, have been achieved. The Dealer Manager, any agent of the Dealer Manager and
any Dealer receiving a check not conforming to the foregoing instructions shall return such check directly to such subscriber not later than the end of the next business day following its receipt. Checks received by the Dealer Manager, any agent of
the Dealer Manager 


  

 17 









	 	
or a Dealer that conform to the foregoing instructions shall be transmitted for deposit pursuant to one of the methods described in this Section 15. 


 

	 	15.2.	Where, pursuant to a Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, internal supervisory review is conducted at the same location at which subscription documents and
checks are received from subscribers, checks will be transmitted by the end of the next business day following receipt by the Dealer for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company or
its agent, except for investments from Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors. The Dealer will transmit checks from Pennsylvania investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Pennsylvania Minimum has been achieved, to the
Company or its agent. The Dealer will transmit checks from Tennessee investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Tennessee Minimum has been achieved, to the Company or its agent. 


 

	 	15.3.	Where, pursuant to a Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, final internal supervisory review is conducted at a different location, checks will be transmitted
by the end of the next business day following receipt by the Dealer to the office of the Dealer conducting such final internal supervisory review (the “Final Review Office”). The Final Review Office will in turn by the end of the
next business day following receipt by the Final Review Office, transmit such checks for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company or its agent, except for investments from
Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors. The Final Review Office will transmit checks from Pennsylvania investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Pennsylvania Minimum has been achieved, to the Company or its agent. The
Final Review Office will transmit checks from Tennessee investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Tennessee Minimum has been achieved, to the Company or its agent. 


 

	 	15.4.	 Where the Dealer Manager (or its agent) receives investor proceeds, checks will be transmitted by the Dealer Manager (or its agent) for deposit to the
escrow agent for the Company or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company or its agent (except for investments from Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors) as soon as practicable but in any event by the end of the second business
day following receipt by the Dealer Manager (or its agent). The Dealer Manager (or its agent) will transmit checks from Pennsylvania investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Pennsylvania Minimum has been achieved, to
the Company or its agent. The Dealer Manager (or its agent) will transmit checks from Tennessee investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Tennessee Minimum has been



  

 18 









	 	
achieved, to the Company or its agent. Checks of rejected potential investors will be promptly returned to such potential investors. 


 

	 	15.5.	Notwithstanding the above, the Dealer Manager may authorize certain Dealers that are “$250,000 broker-dealers” to instruct their customers to make their
checks for Shares subscribed for payable directly to the Dealer or authorize a debit from the customer’s account maintained with the Dealer for the amount of shares subscribed for by the customer. In such case, the Dealer will collect the
proceeds of the subscribers’ checks and debits and wire funds to the escrow agent or, if instructed by the Dealer Manager, issue a check for the aggregate amount of the subscription proceeds made payable to the order of the escrow agent, or if
instructed by the Dealer Manager, made payable to “KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc.” The procedures for the transmittal of checks and wiring of funds of $250,000 broker-dealers will be set forth in the agreements between the
$250,000 broker-dealer and the Dealer Manager.

 EXHIBIT A 

KBS LEGACY PARTNERS APARTMENT REIT, INC. 

Up to 280,000,000 Shares of Common Stock 

FORM OF SELECTED DEALER AGREEMENT 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Dealer Manager Agreement between the Dealer Manager and the Company, dated March 12, 2010, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”). 

 

	I.	Dealer Manager Agreement 


By your acceptance of this Agreement, you will become one of the Dealers referred to in the Dealer Manager Agreement and will be entitled
and subject to the provisions contained in such Dealer Manager Agreement related to the Dealers, including the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 1 of the Dealer Manager Agreement and the indemnification
provisions contained in Section 6 of the Dealer Manager Agreement, including specifically the provisions of such Dealer Manager Agreement (Section 6.3) wherein each Dealer severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Dealer

Company and the Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The indemnification agreements contained in Section 6 of the Dealer Manager Agreement shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the Dealer Manager Agreement. 
  

	II.	Submission of Orders 


Those persons who purchase Shares will be instructed by the Dealer to make their checks payable to “UMB Bank, N.A. as escrow agent
for KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc.” or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company, except with respect to Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors. Checks from Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors must be made payable
to “UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc.” until the Pennsylvania Minimum and Tennessee Minimum, respectively, have been achieved. The Dealer will return any check it receives not conforming to the
foregoing instructions directly to such subscriber not later than the end of the next business day following its receipt. Checks 

 

 A-1 








 
received by the Dealer that conform to the foregoing instructions shall be transmitted for deposit pursuant to one of the following methods: 

Where, pursuant to the Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, internal supervisory review is conducted at the same location at
which subscription documents and checks are received from subscribers, checks will be transmitted by the end of the next business day following receipt by the Dealer for deposit to an escrow agent for the Company or, after the Minimum Offering has
been achieved, to the Company or its agent, except for investments from Pennsylvania and Tennessee investors. The Dealer will transmit checks from Pennsylvania investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Pennsylvania
Minimum has been achieved, to the Company or its agent. The Dealer will transmit checks from Tennessee investors for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Tennessee Minimum has been achieved, to the Company or its agent.

 Where, pursuant to the Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, final internal supervisory review is conducted at a
different location, checks will be transmitted by the end of the next business day following receipt by the Dealer to the office of the Dealer conducting such final internal supervisory review (the “Final Review Office”). The Final
Review Office will in turn by the end of the next business day following receipt by the Final Review Office transmit such checks for deposit to the escrow agent for the Company or, after the Minimum Offering has been achieved, to the Company or its

	III.	Pricing 

 Except as
otherwise provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus (as amended and supplemented), the Shares are to be sold at a per Share cash price as follows: 

 

					
	 Distribution Channel
	  	Primary
Offering
Shares	  	DRP Shares
	 Sales through a Dealer earning transaction-based compensation
	  	$ 10.00	  	$ 9.50
	 Sales through all other distribution channels as described in the Prospectus
	  	$   9.35	  	$ 9.50

  

 A-2 








 Upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus, pursuant to the Company’s volume discount
program, Shares shall be sold at reduced prices in accordance with the following table, which may be amended and supplemented by the Prospectus: 
  

			
	 Dollar Volume Shares Purchased
	  	Price Per Share to
Investor
	 $                0    
to     $   999,999
	  	$10.00
	 $  1,000,000     to     $1,999,999
	  	$  9.90
	 $  2,000,000     to     $2,999,999
	  	$  9.80
	 $  3,000,000     to     $3,999,999
	  	$  9.65
	 $  4,000,000     to     $9,999,999
	  	$  9.50
	 $10,000,000   and above
	  	$  9.40

 The
reduced selling price (and the applicable selling commission and dealer manager fee under the volume discount program) will apply to the entire purchase. For example, a purchase of 250,000 shares in a single transaction would result in a purchase
price of $2,450,000 ($9.80 per share). 
 In addition, as described in the Prospectus, the Dealer Manager may sell shares to the
Dealer, its retirement plans, its representatives and the family members, IRAs and the qualified plans of its representatives at a purchase price of $9.35 per share, reflecting that selling commissions in the amount of $0.65 per share will not be
payable in consideration of the services rendered by the Dealer and its representatives in the Offering. For purposes of this discount, a family member includes such person’s spouse, parent, child, sibling, mother- or father-in-law, son- or
daughter-in law or brother- or sister-in-law. 
  

	IV.	Dealer’s Commissions 


Except for discounts described in or as otherwise provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus (as amended
and supplemented), the Dealer’s selling commission applicable to the public offering price of the Shares sold by the Dealer, which it is authorized to sell hereunder, is as follows: 

 

					
	 	  	Selling Commissions
	 Distribution Channel
	  	Primary
Offering
Shares	  	DRP
	 Sales through a Dealer earning transaction-based compensation
	  	6.5%	  	0.0%
	 Sales through all other distribution channels as discussed in the Prospectus
	  	0.0%	  	0.0%

  

 A-3 








 The preceding commission (for the Dealer distribution channel) shall be adjusted for sales
under the volume discount program in accordance with the following table, which may be amended and supplemented by the Prospectus: 
  

					
	 Dollar Volume Shares Purchased
	  	Sales
Commissions
(Based on $10.00
Price Per Share)	  	Dealer
Manager Fee
(Based on $10.00
Price Per Share)
	 $                0
    to     $   999,999
	  	6.5%	  	3.0%
	 $  1,000,000     to     $1,999,999
	  	5.5%	  	3.0%
	 $  2,000,000     to     $2,999,999
	  	4.5%	  	3.0%
	 $  3,000,000     to     $3,999,999
	  	3.5%	  	2.5%
	 $  4,000,000     to     $9,999,999
	  	2.5%	  	2.0%
	 $10,000,000   and above
	  	1.5%	  	2.0%

 The reduced selling
commission and dealer manager fee will apply to the entire purchase. All commission rates and dealer manager fees are calculated assuming a price per share of $10.00. For example, a purchase of 250,000 shares in a single transaction would result in
selling commissions of $112,500 and dealer manager fees of $75,000. 
 All selling commissions shall be based on Shares sold by
Dealer and accepted and confirmed by the Company, which commission will be paid by the Dealer Manager. For these purposes, a “sale of Shares” shall occur if and only if a transaction has closed with a subscriber for Shares pursuant to all
applicable offering and subscription documents, payment for the Shares has been received in full in the manner provided in Section II hereof, the Company has accepted the subscription agreement of such subscriber and the Company has thereafter
distributed the commission to the Dealer Manager in connection with such transaction. The Dealer affirms that the Dealer Manager’s liability for commissions payable is limited solely to the proceeds of commissions receivable from the Company
and the Dealer hereby waives any and all rights to receive payment of commissions due until such time as the Dealer Manager is in receipt of the commission from the Company. 

In addition, upon the terms set forth herein or in the Prospectus (as amended and supplemented), the Dealer Manager may agree to reallow
to any Dealer a portion of its dealer manager fee pursuant to a separate marketing fee agreement. For volume discount sales of $3,000,000 or more, the dealer manager fee is reduced as set forth above. The amount of the dealer manager fee reallowed
to a Dealer in that instance will be negotiated on a transaction by transaction basis. The Dealer Manager or, in certain cases at the option of the Company, the Company, will pay or reimburse bona fide invoiced due diligence expenses of Dealer
unless such payment would cause the aggregate of such reimbursements to Dealer and other broker-dealers, together with all other organization and offering expenses, to exceed 15% of gross proceeds from the Offering. 

The parties hereby agree that the foregoing commission is not in excess of the usual and customary distributors’ or sellers’
commission received in the sale of securities similar to the Shares, that Dealer’s interest in the Offering is limited to such commission from the Dealer Manager and Dealer’s indemnity referred to in Section 6 of the Dealer

  

 A-4 








 
Manager Agreement and that the Company is not liable or responsible for the direct payment of such commission to the Dealer. 

 

	V.	Payment 

 Payment of
selling commissions or any reallowance of a portion of the dealer manager fee will be made by the Dealer Manager (or by the Company as provided in the Dealer Manager Agreement) to the Dealer within 30 days of the receipt by the Dealer Manager of the
gross commission payments from the Company. Dealer acknowledges that, if the Company pays selling commissions to the Dealer Manager, the Company is relieved of any obligation for selling commissions to the Dealer. The Company may rely on and use the
preceding acknowledgment as a defense against any claim by the Dealer for selling commissions the Company pays to Dealer Manager but that Dealer Manager fails to remit to the Dealer. 

 

	VI.	Right to Reject Orders or Cancel Sales 


All orders, whether initial or additional, are subject to acceptance by and shall only become effective upon confirmation by the Company.
The Dealer agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and no commission will be paid to the Dealer with respect to the portion of any
subscription that is rejected. Orders not accompanied by a Subscription Agreement with the signature page and the required check in payment for the Shares may be rejected. Issuance and delivery of the Shares will be made only after actual receipt of
payment therefor. If any check is not paid upon presentment, or if the Company is not in actual receipt of clearinghouse funds or cash, certified or cashier’s check or the equivalent in payment for the Shares, the Company reserves the right to
cancel the sale without notice. In the event an order is rejected, canceled or rescinded for any reason, the Dealer agrees to return to the Dealer Manager any commission theretofore paid with respect to such order within 30 days thereafter and,
failing to do so, the Dealer Manager shall have the right to offset amounts owed against future commissions due and otherwise payable to the Dealer. 
  

	VII.	Covenants of the Dealer 


Dealer covenants and agrees with the Dealer Manager and the Company that: 

 

	 	7.1	Dealer will use its best efforts to sell the Shares for cash on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented.


  

	 	7.2	 In connection with the Dealer’s participation in the offer and sale of Shares (including, without limitation, all initial and additional
subscriptions for Shares and any resales and transfers of Shares), the Dealer will comply with all requirements and obligations imposed upon it by (a) the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as



  

 A-5 









	 	
amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated under both such acts; (b) all applicable state securities laws and regulations as from
time to time in effect; (c) the applicable rules of FINRA, including, but not in any way limited to, Rule 2730, Rule 2740, Rule 2420, Rule 2440 and Rule 2750 of the NASD Conduct Rules and FINRA Rule 2310; (d) all applicable rules and
regulations relating to the suitability of investors, including, without limitation, the provisions of Articles III.C. and III.E of the Statement of Policy regarding Real Estate Investment Trusts of the North American Securities Administrators
Association, Inc. (the “NASAA Guidelines”); (e) any other state and federal laws and regulations applicable to the Offering, the sale of Shares or the activities of the Dealer pursuant to this Agreement, including without
limitation the privacy standards and requirements of state and federal laws, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, and the laws governing money laundering abatement and anti-terrorist financing efforts, including the applicable rules of the
SEC and FINRA, the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended, the USA Patriot Act of 2001, and regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Asset Control at the Department of the Treasury; and (f) this Agreement and the Prospectus as amended and
supplemented. 

  

	 	7.3	The Dealer will not offer Shares in any jurisdiction unless and until (a) the Dealer has been advised in writing by the Company or the Dealer Manager that the
Shares are either registered in accordance with, or exempt from, the securities laws of such jurisdiction and (b) the Dealer has all required licenses and registrations to offer shares in that jurisdiction. 


 

	 	7.4	The Dealer will offer Shares (both at the time of an initial subscription and at the time of any additional subscription) only to persons who meet the financial
qualifications and suitability standards set forth in the Prospectus as amended or supplemented or in any suitability letter or memorandum sent to the Dealer by the Company or the Dealer Manager. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed
to relieve the Dealer of the Dealer’s suitability obligations under Rule 2310 of the NASD Conduct Rules (or applicable successor FINRA rule). 

  

	 	7.5	 The Dealer agrees to comply with the record-keeping requirements imposed by (a) federal and state securities laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder, (b) the applicable rules of FINRA and (c) the NASAA Guidelines, including the requirement to maintain records (the “Suitability Records”) of the information used to determine that an investment in Shares is
suitable and appropriate for each subscriber for a period of six years from the date of the sale of the Shares. The Dealer further agrees to make the Suitability Records available to the Dealer Manager and the Company upon request and to make them
available to representatives of the SEC and FINRA and applicable state securities 


  

 A-6 









	 	
administrators upon the Dealer’s receipt of a subpoena or other appropriate document request from such agency. 


 

	 	7.6	The Dealer will provide the Dealer Manager with such information relating to the offer and sale of the Shares by it as the Dealer Manager may from time to time
reasonably request or as may be requested to enable the Dealer Manager or the Company, as the case may be, to prepare such reports of sale as may be required to be filed under applicable federal or state securities laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder. 

  

	 	7.7	The Dealer agrees to be bound by the terms of the Amended and Restated Escrow Agreement dated March 8, 2010, among UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, the Dealer
Manager and the Company, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit B and the Dealer further agrees that it will not represent or imply that UMB Bank, N.A., as the escrow agent identified in the Prospectus, has investigated the
desirability or advisability of an investment in the Company or has approved, endorsed or passed upon the merits of the Shares or of the Company, nor will the Dealer use the name of said escrow agent in any manner whatsoever in connection with the
offer or sale of the Shares other than by acknowledgment that it has agreed to serve as escrow agent. 

  

	VIII.	Prospectus and Sales Literature 


Dealer is not authorized or permitted to give, and will not give, any information or make any representation (written or oral) concerning
the Shares except as set forth in the Prospectus as amended and supplemented or in the Authorized Sales Materials. The Dealer Manager will supply Dealer with reasonable quantities of the Prospectus, including amendments of and supplements to the
Prospectus, and any Authorized Sales Materials, for delivery to investors, and Dealer will deliver a copy of the Prospectus, including any amendments and supplements thereto, as required by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated under both. The Dealer agrees that (a) it will deliver a copy of the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to each investor to whom an offer is made prior to or simultaneously with the first solicitation of an offer to
sell the Shares to an investor and (b) it will not send or give any Authorized Sales Materials to an investor unless the Authorized Sales Materials are accompanied by or preceded by the Prospectus as amended and supplemented. 

Except for the Authorized Sales Materials, the Company has not authorized the use of any supplemental literature or sales materials in
connection with the Offering and the Dealer agrees not to use any material unless it has been authorized by the Company and provided to the Dealer by the Dealer Manager. Dealer agrees that it will not show or give to any investor or prospective
investor or reproduce any material or writing that is supplied to it by the Dealer Manager and marked “broker-dealer use only” or otherwise bearing a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to
members of the public. Dealer agrees that it will not show or give to any investor or prospective investor in a particular jurisdiction any material or writing that is supplied to 

 

 A-7 








 
it by the Dealer Manager if such material bears a legend denoting that it is not to be used in connection with the sale of Shares to members of the public in such jurisdiction. Dealer agrees that
it will not use in connection with the offer or sale of Shares any material or writing that relates to another company supplied to it by the Company or the Dealer Manager bearing a legend that states that such material may not be used in connection
with the offer or sale of any securities of the Company. 
 Dealer agrees to furnish a copy of the Prospectus (as amended and
supplemented) required for compliance with the provisions of federal and state securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Rule 15c2-8 under Exchange Act. Regardless of the termination of this Agreement, Dealer will deliver a
Prospectus (as amended and supplemented) in transactions in the Shares for a period of 90 days from the effective date of the Registration Statement or such other period as may be required by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

  

	IX.	License and Association Membership 


Dealer represents and warrants to the Company and the Dealer Manager that it is a properly registered or licensed broker-dealer, duly
authorized to offer and sell Shares under federal securities laws and regulations and the securities laws and regulations of all states where it offers or sells Shares and that it is a member of FINRA in good standing. This Agreement shall
automatically terminate if the Dealer ceases to be a member of FINRA in good standing or is subject to a FINRA suspension or if the Dealer’s registration or license under the Exchange Act or any state securities laws or regulations is
terminated or suspended; the Dealer agrees to notify the Dealer Manager immediately if any of these events occur. 
  

	X.	Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Programs 


Dealer’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes a representation to the Company and the Dealer Manager that the Dealer has
established and implemented an anti-money laundering and customer identification compliance program (“AML Program”) in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, including federal and state securities laws, applicable rules of
FINRA, and the Bank Secrecy Act, Title 31 U.S.C. Sections 5311-5355, as amended by the USA Patriot Act of 2001, and related regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 103), and will continue to maintain its AML Program consistent with applicable laws and
regulations during the term of this Agreement. 
 In accordance with these applicable laws and regulations and its AML Program,
Dealer agrees to verify the identity of its new customers; to maintain customer records; to check the names of new customers against government watch lists, including the Office of Foreign Asset Control’s (“OFAC”) list of
Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons. Additionally, Dealer will monitor account activity to identify patterns of unusual size or volume, geographic factors and any other “red flags” described in the USA Patriot Act as
potential signals of money laundering or terrorist financing. Dealer will submit to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network any required suspicious activity reports about such activity and further will disclose such activity to applicable

  

 A-8 








 
federal and state law enforcement when required by law. Upon request by the Dealer Manager at any time, the Dealer hereby agrees to furnish (a) a copy of its AML Program to the Dealer
Manager for review, and (b) a copy of the findings and any remedial actions taken in connection with Dealer’s most recent independent testing of its AML Program. 

 

	XI.	Effectiveness, Termination and Amendment 


This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution hereof by the Dealer and the receipt of this executed Agreement by the Dealer
Manager. Dealer will immediately suspend or terminate its offer and sale of Shares upon the request of the Company or the Dealer Manager at any time and will resume its offer and sale of Shares hereunder upon subsequent request of the Company or the
Dealer Manager. In addition to termination pursuant to Section IX, any party may terminate this Agreement by written notice, which termination shall be effective 48 hours after such notice is given. Upon the sale of all of the Shares or the
termination of the Dealer Manager Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate without obligation on the part of the Dealer or the Dealer Manager, except as set forth in this Agreement. The indemnification agreements contained in Section 6 of the
Dealer Manager Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Dealer Manager Agreement, and the respective agreements and obligations of the Dealer Manager and the Dealer set forth in Sections IV, V, VI, 7.2, 7.5, 7.6, VIII and XI
through XXI of this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement. 

This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Dealer Manager by written notice to the Dealer. Any such amendment shall be deemed
accepted by the Dealer upon the Dealer placing an order for the sale of Shares after it has received such notice. 
  

	XII.	Privacy Laws 

 The Dealer
Manager and Dealer (each referred to individually in this section as a “party”) agree as follows: 
  

	 	12.1	Each party agrees to abide by and comply in all respects with (a) the privacy standards and requirements of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999
(“GLBA”) and applicable regulations promulgated thereunder, (b) the privacy standards and requirements of any other applicable federal or state law, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and
(c) its own internal privacy policies and procedures, each as may be amended from time to time. 

  

	 	12.2	Dealer shall not disclose nonpublic personal information (as defined under the GLBA) of all customers who have opted out of such disclosures, except to service
providers (when necessary and as permitted under the GLBA) or as otherwise required by applicable law; 

  

	 	12.3	Except as expressly permitted under the FCRA, Dealer shall not disclose any information that would be considered a “consumer report” under the FCRA; and


  

 A-9 









	 	12.4	Dealer shall be responsible for determining which customers have opted out of the disclosure of nonpublic personal information by periodically reviewing and, if
necessary, retrieving a list of such customers (the “List”) to identify customers that have exercised their opt-out rights. In the event either party expects to use or disclose nonpublic personal information of any customer for
purposes other than servicing the customer, or as otherwise required by applicable law, that party must first consult the List to determine whether the affected customer has exercised his or her opt-out rights. Each party understands that it is
prohibited from using or disclosing any nonpublic personal information of any customer that is identified on the List as having opted out of such disclosures. 


 

	XIII.	Customer Complaints 


Each party agrees to promptly provide to the other party copies of any written or otherwise documented complaints from customers of the
Dealer received by such party relating in any way to the Offering (including, but not limited to, the manner in which the Shares are offered by the Dealer). 
  

	XIV.	Notice 

 All notices to
the Dealer Manager shall be in writing addressed to the Dealer Manager at the address set forth below. All notices to Dealer shall be in writing addressed to the Dealer at the address specified by the Dealer at the end of this Agreement. Notices
addressed to the intended recipient as described above will be duly given (a) when personally delivered or by commercial messenger, (b) one business day following deposit with a recognized overnight courier service, provided such deposit
occurs prior to the deadline imposed by such service for overnight delivery; or (c) when transmitted, if sent by facsimile copy, provided confirmation of receipt is received by sender and such notice is sent by an additional method provided
hereunder. 
 To the Dealer Manager: 
  

			
	KBS Capital Markets Group LLC	  	
	660 Newport Center Drive, Suite 1200

	XV.	Confirmation 

 The Dealer
Manager hereby acknowledges that the Dealer Manager has assumed the duty to confirm on behalf of the Dealers all orders for purchases of Shares accepted by the Company. Such confirmations will comply with the rules of the SEC and FINRA and will
comply with the applicable laws of such other jurisdictions to the extent that the Dealer Manager is advised of such laws in writing by the Dealer. 
  

 A-10 









	XVI.	Entire Agreement 

 This
Agreement and the exhibits hereto are the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof between the parties hereto. 

 

	XVII.	Successors and Assigns 


No party shall assign this Agreement or any right, interest or benefit under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
other party. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Dealer Manager and the Dealer and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 
  

	XVIII.	Arbitration, Attorney’s Fees, Jury Trial and Applicable Law 


In the event of a dispute concerning any provision of this Agreement (including any provisions of the Dealer Manager Agreement
incorporated into this Agreement), either party may require the dispute to be submitted to binding arbitration, conducted on a confidential basis, under the then current commercial arbitration rules of FINRA or the American Arbitration Association
(at the discretion of the party requesting arbitration) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including the governing law provisions of this section) and pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 – 16). The
parties will request that the arbitrator or arbitration panel (“Arbitrator”) issue written findings of fact and conclusions of law. The Arbitrator shall not be empowered to make any award or render any judgment for punitive damages,
and the Arbitrator shall be required to follow applicable law in construing this Agreement, making awards, and rendering judgments. The decision of the arbitration panel shall be final and binding, and judgment upon any arbitration award may be
entered by any court having jurisdiction. All arbitration hearings will be held at the Los Angeles FINRA District Office or at another mutually agreed upon site. The parties may agree on a single arbitrator, or, if the parties cannot so agree, each
party will have the right to choose one arbitrator, and the selected arbitrators will choose a third arbitrator. Each arbitrator must have experience and education that qualify him or her to competently address the specific issues to be designated
for arbitration. Notwithstanding the preceding, no party will be prevented from immediately seeking provisional remedies in courts of competent jurisdiction, including but not limited to, temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, but
such remedies will not be sought as a means to avoid or stay arbitration. Except as provided otherwise in Section 6 of the Dealer Manager Agreement, in any action or arbitration to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or to secure damages
for its breach, the prevailing party shall recover its costs and reasonable attorney’s fees. Each party to this Agreement hereby waives a trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement. This Agreement shall be
construed under the laws of the State of California; provided, however, that the governing law for causes of action for violations of federal or state securities law shall be governed by the applicable federal or state securities law. 

 

 A-11 









	XIX.	Severability 

 The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision was omitted. 

 

	XX.	Counterparts 

 This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. Each counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall be an original contract, but all counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

 

	XXI.	No Partnership 

 Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to constitute the Dealer as an employee, agent or representative of, or in association with or in partnership with, the Dealer Manager, the Company or the other Dealers; instead, this Agreement
shall only constitute the Dealer as a dealer authorized by the Dealer Manager to sell the Shares according to the terms set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented and in this Agreement.
