Listing Note. The convertible
note to be issued by Borrower to Special Limited Partner as evidence of Special Limited Partner’s right to receive
an aggregate amount of distributions from Borrower, in an amount equal to the difference between (i) fifteen percent (15%) of the
amount, if any, by which (a) the sum of (I) the market value of REIT’s outstanding common stock (based
on the average market value of such shares issued and outstanding at listing on NASDAQ over the 30 trading days beginning 180 days
after such shares are first listed on NASDAQ) plus (II) the sum of all distributions paid by REIT prior to the listing of
REIT’s common stock on NASDAQ, exceeds (b) the sum of (I) the total amount of capital raised from stockholders during REIT’s
prior offering plus (II) the amount of cash flow necessary to generate a six percent (6%) annual cumulative, non-compounded return
to such stockholders (with no accrual of additional amounts on the outstanding obligations), minus (ii) any distributions received
by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 5.02(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement (as set forth in the form of the

direct or indirect investments in real property, loans and other investments permitted by the Limited Partnership Agreement and
the Loan Documents occurring after REIT’s common stock is first listed on NASDAQ, and which note shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.


 


Limited Partnership Agreement.

LTIP Units. Equity Interests
in Borrower issued to the Advisor pursuant to the Advisor LTIP and the Limited Partnership Agreement in the form set forth in the
Limited Partnership Agreement as of April 7, 2014 in exchange for services performed or to be performed to or for the benefit of

LTIP and the Partnership Agreement, shall at all times rank pari passu with the units of limited partnership interest in
the Borrower as to the payment of regular and special periodic or other distributions (and are similarly treated as units of limited
partnership interest of the Borrower with respect to the payment of distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
up). At the time the Borrower’s capital account with respect to an LTIP Unit is economically equivalent to the average capital
account balance of the limited partnership interest of the Borrower and has been earned and has been vested under the terms and
condition of the Advisor LTIP for 30 days, the applicable LTIP Unit will automatically convert into a unit of limited partnership
interest of the Borrower on a one-to-one basis.

Agreement. The Subordination and Standstill Agreement, to be entered into substantially contemporaneously with the issuance

modifying §3.2 of the Credit Agreement, by adding the parenthetical “(not including the Listing Note so long as the
obligations thereunder are subject to the Subordination and Standstill Agreement)” after the words “the aggregate principal
amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness”, in the first sentence thereof.


 


(p)          By

proceeds from a Loan may be used to redeem shares of REIT’s common stock through a share repurchase program pursuant to §8.7(a)(vi)
provided that such redeemed shares are immediately retired, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.”

to its partners, members or other owners of REIT, to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Distributions paid in any fiscal
quarter, when added to the aggregate amount of all other Distributions paid in the same fiscal quarter and the preceding three
(3) fiscal quarters, exceeds ninety-five percent (95%) of such Person’s Modified FFO for such period (provided that
(X) during the time period commencing on April 1, 2014 and ending on March 31, 2015, such limit shall be one hundred ten percent
(110%) and any Distributions paid by Borrower or REIT to their respective partners, members or other owners before such period
shall not be considered in the calculation of the limitations contained in this §8.7(a), it being agreed that until three
(3) fiscal quarters following April 1, 2014 have occurred, the aggregate amount of such permitted Distributions shall be determined
by using the quarters elapsed from April 1, 2014 and annualizing such amount in a manner reasonably acceptable to Agent, and (Y)
upon the expiration of such time period, any Distributions paid by Borrower or REIT to their respective partners, members or other
owners during such period from April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015 shall not be considered in the calculation of the limitations contained
in this §8.7(a) for the period commencing April 1, 2015 and continuing thereafter, it being agreed that until three (3) fiscal
quarters following April 1, 2015 have occurred, the aggregate amount of such permitted Distributions shall be determined by using
the quarters elapsed from April 1, 2015 and annualizing such amount in a manner reasonably acceptable to Agent); provided
that the limitations contained in this §8.7(a) shall not preclude the Borrower or REIT from making Distributions in an amount
equal to the minimum distributions required under the Code to maintain the REIT Status of REIT, as evidenced by a certification
of the principal financial officer or accounting officer of REIT containing calculations in detail reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to the Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
result therefrom, including an Event of Default related to any financial covenant set forth in this Agreement, (i) Borrower and
REIT may request the Majority Lenders’ consent to a Distribution that is not a Distribution permitted by the immediately
preceding sentence, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the sole, but good faith, business judgment of the Majority Lenders,
(ii) Borrower and REIT may make a one-time election by delivering written notice thereof to Agent upon which the limitations contained
in this §8.7(a) shall not apply for two consecutive fiscal quarters, provided that, any Distributions paid by Borrower
or REIT to their respective partners, members or other owners during such period described in clause (ii) shall nonetheless be
considered in the calculation of the limitations contained in this §8.7(a) after the end of such period and provided
further that this election may not be made at any time prior to April 1, 2015, (iii) Borrower and REIT may purchase, redeem or
otherwise acquire Equity Interests issued by it with the proceeds received from the substantially concurrent issue (occurring in
under thirty (30) days) of new Equity Interests, (iv) Borrower, REIT and each Subsidiary may make payments in lieu of the issuance
of fractional shares representing insignificant interests in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Interests of REIT, Borrower or any Subsidiary, (v) Borrower, REIT and each Subsidiary
may make non-cash Distributions in connection with the implementation of or pursuant to any retirement, health, stock option and
other benefit plans, bonus plans, performance-based incentive plans, and other similar forms of compensation for the benefit of
the directors, officers and employees of REIT, Borrower and the Subsidiaries or the Advisor LTIP, (vi) REIT may, and Borrower may
make Distributions to allow REIT to, make payments for share repurchase programs in connection with the listing of REIT on an exchange,
provided that such payments shall be made within ninety (90) days of such listing and shall not exceed $300,000,000.00 in
the aggregate, and (vii) Borrower or any Guarantor may make any Distribution of non-core assets (or the Equity Interest of any
Subsidiary of which the sole assets are non-core assets) acquired as permitted under §§8.3(o) or 8.4 provided
that (A) such Distribution shall be made within one year of such acquisition, (B) immediately prior thereto, and immediately thereafter
and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default has occurred or would result therefrom and (C) the Loan Parties
will remain in pro forma compliance with the covenants set forth in §9 after giving effect to such Distribution. For purposes
of this §8.7(a), Distributions shall not include any Dividend Reinvestment Proceeds. Borrower shall be permitted to issue
LTIP Units to Advisor in connection with the initial listing of REIT’s common stock on NASDAQ, provided that any further
Distributions with respect thereto shall be subject to the terms of §8.7.”

modifying §8.1 of the Credit Agreement by adding the parenthetical “(other than the Listing Note so long as the obligations
thereunder are subject to the Subordination and Standstill Agreement)” after the words “guaranty of Unsecured Indebtedness”
appearing in clause (ii) of the last paragraph thereof.

the incurrence and payment of the obligations evidenced thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of §8.14
below and the Subordination and Standstill Agreement, and (vii) the implementation and funding of the Advisor LTIP, including,

“§8.14
Listing Note. Prior to or contemporaneously with the execution of the Listing Note, Borrower shall deliver to Agent (x)
an original counterpart of the Subordination and Standstill Agreement duly executed by Borrower and Special Limited Partner, together
with evidence of Special Limited Partner’s authority to execute and deliver the Subordination and Standstill Agreement reasonably

or waived in any respect (provided that with respect to this clause (a), Agent’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld);

the payment is made from Distributions permitted pursuant to §8.7), or (c) paid except as permitted in this §8.14.
Borrower shall promptly notify Agent in writing of the principal balance of the Listing Note once such amount has been determined.


 


(u)          By

Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges that the existence of the Subordination and Standstill Agreement and the performance by the
Agent and the Lenders of their obligations under the Subordination and Standstill Agreement shall not affect, impair or release
the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents. The Subordination and Standstill Agreement is solely for the benefit
of the Agent and the Lenders and not for the benefit of the Borrower, and the Borrower shall have no rights thereunder or any right
to insist on the performance thereof. The Agent is authorized by the Lenders to perform its obligations under the Subordination
and Standstill Agreement, and each Lender agrees to be bound thereby.”
