(h)          To
the extent permissible in connection with the Loan, to borrow money for the Company from banks, other lending institutions, Managers,
Members, or Affiliates of the Managers or Members on such terms as the Managers deem appropriate, and in connection therewith,
to hypothecate, encumber and grant security interests in the assets of the Company to secure repayment of the borrowed sums. No

of the Company expressly authorized by the Managers to contract such debts or incur such liability by the Managers.


 


(i)          To

Unless
authorized to do so by this Operating Agreement or by the Managers, no attorney-in-fact, employee or other agent of the Company
shall have any power or authority to bind the Company in any way, to pledge its credit or to render it liable pecuniary for any
purpose. No Member shall have any power or authority to bind the Company unless the Member has been authorized by the Managers
or Members to act as an agent of the Company in accordance with the previous sentence.


 


5.04        Management
Committee.


 


(a)          The
Managers and Members hereby establish a management committee (the “Management Committee”) for the Company for the purpose
of the Managers considering and approving actions pursuant to Section 5.03. The Management Committee shall consist of four (4)
individuals appointed to act as “representatives” of the Manager and Member that appointed him or her (the “Representatives”)
as follows: (i) BR Member shall be entitled to designate two (2) Representatives to represent the BR Member as Manager and Member;
and (ii) Catalyst Member shall be entitled to designate two (2) Representatives to represent the Catalyst Member as Manager and
Member. The initial members of the Management Committee are set forth on Exhibit A.


 


(b)          Each
Representative as a member of the Management Committee, subject to this Section 5.04(b), shall hold office until death, resignation
or removal at the pleasure of the Managers and Member that appointed him or her. If a vacancy occurs on the Management Committee,
the Manager with the right to appoint and remove such vacating Representative shall appoint his or her successor. A Manager shall
lose its right to have its Representatives vote on any item as of the date on which such Manager ceases to be a Manager, including
by means of removal under Section 5.09, or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. If the BR Member transfers all or a portion
of its membership interest to a transferee permitted by Section 12.02(a), such transferee shall automatically, and without any
further action or authorization by any Manager or Member, succeed to the rights and powers of the BR Member under this Section
5.04 as may be agreed to between the BR Member which is transferring the membership interest, on the one hand, and the permitted
transferee to which the membership interest is being transferred, on the other hand, including the shared or unilateral right to
appoint the Representatives that the BR Member was theretofore entitled to appoint pursuant to this Section 5.04. If the Catalyst
Member transfers all or a portion of its membership interest to a transferee permitted pursuant to Section 12.02(b), such permitted
transferee shall automatically, and without any further action or authorization by any Manager or Member, succeed to the rights
and powers of the Catalyst Member under this Section 5.04 as may be agreed to between the Catalyst Member which is transferring
the membership interest, on the one hand, and the permitted transferee to which the membership interest is being transferred, on
the other hand, including the shared or unilateral right to appoint the Representatives that the Catalyst Member was theretofore
entitled to appoint pursuant to this Section 5.04.


 




    	13



    	 



    

  


(c)          The
Management Committee shall meet at least once every quarter (unless waived by mutual agreement of the Managers) and as otherwise
required. The only Representatives required to constitute a quorum for a meeting of the Management Committee shall be one (1) Representative
appointed by BR Member and one (1) Representative appointed by Catalyst Member; provided, however, if any Representative fails
to attend any meeting and as a result thereof the Company is unable to obtain a quorum, and thereafter such Representative fails
to agree to reschedule and attend any such meeting within 15 days after receipt of written notice that the Company was unable to
obtain a quorum (the “Absent Representative”), then a quorum can be obtained
without the attendance of a Representative of the Member who selected the Absent Representative.


 


(d)          Each
of the two (2) Representatives appointed by BR Member shall be entitled to cast two (2) votes on any matter that comes before the
Management Committee and each of the Representatives appointed by Catalyst Member shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote on any
matter that comes before the Management Committee. Approval by the Management Committee of any matter (other than matters which
are Major Decisions under Section 7.07 or which may be made unilaterally by a Member, but only as expressly set forth in this Agreement)
shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes of the Representatives then in office voting at a duly held
meeting of the Management Committee.


 


(e)          Any
meeting of the Management Committee may be held by conference telephone call, video conference or through similar communications
equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation in a telephonic
and/or video conference meeting held pursuant to this Section 5.04(e) shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.


 


(f)          Any
action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Management Committee may be taken without a meeting, without prior
notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by Representatives
having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which
all Representatives entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. All consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings
of the Management Committee.

5.05         Limitation
of Liability. No Manager has guaranteed nor shall have any obligation with respect to the return of a Member’s Capital
Contributions or profits from the operation of the Company. Each Manager shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports
or statements, including but not limited to financial statements or other financial data prepared or presented in accordance with
the provisions of the Act. No Manager shall be liable to the Company or to any Member for good faith negligence or for honest mistakes
of judgment or losses or liabilities due to such good faith mistakes or due to the negligence, dishonesty, unlawful acts or bad
faith of any employee, broker or other agent, accountant, attorney, other professional or person employed by the Company provided
that such person was selected, engaged, retained and supervised by such Manager with reasonable care. No Manager shall have any
liability to the Company or to any Member for any loss suffered by the Company which arises out of any action or inaction of such
Manager if, prior thereto, such Manager, in good faith, determined that such course of conduct was in, and not opposed to, the
best interests of the Company and such course of conduct did not constitute willful misconduct or a material breach of this Agreement
or gross negligence. It is the express intention of the parties that the Managers’ standard of care be limited to acting
in a manner reasonably believed by them in good faith to be in accordance with their authority under this Agreement, that the Managers’
obligations be limited to those expressly provided in this Agreement, and that any duties of loyalty or care and any and all other
fiduciary duties arising at law or in equity, if any, are hereby strictly limited to accord with the provisions of this Section
5.05 and to the performance by the Managers of their express obligations under this Agreement, and any broader duty is hereby waived
by the other Members.


 


5.06         Managers
Have No Exclusive Duty to Company. A Manager shall not be required to manage the Company as his or its sole and exclusive function
and he or it (or any Manager) may have other business interests and may engage in other activities in addition to those relating
to the Company. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Operating Agreement, to share or participate
in such other investments or activities of a Manager or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom. A Manager shall incur no liability
to the Company or to any of the Members as a result of engaging in any other business or venture.


 


5.07         Bank
Accounts. The Management Committee may from time to time open bank accounts, brokerage accounts and other accounts in the name
of the Company, and the Managers shall be the sole signatories thereon, unless the Management Committee determines otherwise.


 


5.08         Resignation.
Any Manager of the Company may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Members of the Company. The resignation of any
Manager shall take effect upon receipt of notice thereof or at such later time as shall be specified in such notice; and, unless
otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. The resignation of
a Manager shall also constitute the resignation of such Manager’s Representatives on the Management Committee. The resignation
of a Manager who is also a Member shall not affect the Manager’s rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal
of a Member.


 




    	15



    	 



    

  


5.09         Removal
of Managers. At a meeting called expressly for that purpose, a Manager may be removed, by the affirmative vote of all Members
(excluding the Membership Interests of BR Member or its permitted transferee in the event BR Member or its permitted transferee
is the subject of such removal vote and excluding the Membership Interests of Catalyst Member or its permitted transferee in the
event Catalyst Member or its permitted transferee is the subject of such removal vote), only in the event of any of the following
(each a “Removal Action”): (a) a material breach of this Agreement on the part of such Manager or its Affiliated
Member, which breach shall continue uncured for thirty (30) calendar days after the giving of written notice thereof to such Manager
specifying the nature of such breach; (b) a Default Action by a Member (or an Affiliate of such Member) affiliated with such Manager;
(c) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Manager, its affiliated Member or any of their Affiliates (including
any Affiliated developer or property manager); provided, however, with regard to such acts by Affiliates, only to the extent such
acts result in a material adverse effect on the Property or the Company; or (d) in the case of a Manager designated by the Catalyst
Member, the termination of the Development Agreement as a result of an event of default by the Developer thereunder. 


 


The removal of a Manager
as a result of a Removal Action shall also constitute the removal of such Manager’s Representatives on the Management Committee.
The removal of a Manager who is also a Member shall not affect the Managers’ rights as a Member and shall not constitute
a withdrawal of a Member. However, if the Catalyst Member is removed as Manager pursuant to clause (b) of the preceding paragraph
as a result of the occurrence of an event described in either subsection (2) or subsection (3) of the definition of a Default Action,
(x) the BR Member shall have the right to cause the Company and the Borrower to terminate the Developer under the Development Agreement
and (y) if such removal occurs before Project Stabilization, the Catalyst Member will no longer be entitled to receive any portion
of the ‘promote’ otherwise payable to it under the Section 9.01 (i.e., the 30.56% share payable under Section 9.01(g)
or the 38.89% share payable under Section 9.01(h)), but rather will only be entitled to distributions to it under Sections 9.01(g)
or (h) based on its Ownership Percentage.


 


In any instance where
the Catalyst Member is removed as Manager and/or the Developer is removed as developer under the Development Agreement, regardless
of the cause of such removal, the BR Member shall cause the Catalyst Member and/or any Affiliate that executed a guaranty to be
released in full from any Loan Guaranty; provided, that, if the BR Member is unable to obtain such release despite its commercially
reasonable efforts to do so, the BR Member (and certain Affiliates reasonably acceptable to the Catalyst Member) shall be obligated
to indemnify and hold harmless the Catalyst Member and/or any Affiliate (each, a “Catalyst Indemnified Party”) pursuant
to an indemnification agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Catalyst Indemnified Parties, without prejudice
to any other indemnification right under Section 15, for any amount paid by the Catalyst Indemnified Parties under such
Loan Guaranty or other guaranty or indemnity agreement and actual losses and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees
and costs) incurred by the Catalyst Indemnified Parties in defending against a claim for performance under such Loan Guaranty or
other guaranty or indemnity agreement, except to the extent (i) the Catalyst Indemnified Parties are separately obligated to the
Company or the BR Member, without right of reimbursement, under a written agreement for the amount sought to be recovered under
such Loan Guaranty or indemnity agreement or (ii) the amount sought to be recovered would never be collectible from, or claimed
against, the Company but for the fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or willful misappropriation of funds by the Catalyst
Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that the BR Member and its Affiliates shall not be obligated to indemnify the Catalyst
Indemnified Parties if, with respect to any action taken by the BR Member after the date of removal, the Catalyst Member has expressly
approved of or consented to the action taken by BR Member in writing within two (2) business days following the receipt of written
notice from BR Member that BR Member intends to take such action (and if the Catalyst Member has not affirmatively responded to
BR Member by the end of such two (2) business day period, the Catalyst Member shall be deemed to have expressly disagreed with
the action).

5.10       Vacancies.
Any vacancy occurring for any reason in the number of Managers of the Company may be filled by the affirmative vote of all Members
(excluding the Membership Interests of BR Member or its permitted transferee to the extent the vacancy results from BR Member or
its permitted transferee being removed as Manager and excluding the Membership Interests of Catalyst Member or its permitted transferee
to the extent the vacancy results from Catalyst Member or its permitted transferee being removed as Manager). A Manager elected
to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of his predecessor in office and shall hold office until the expiration
of such term and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify or until his earlier death, resignation or removal.


 


5.11       Salaries.
The salaries and other compensation of the Managers shall be fixed from time to time by an affirmative vote of all the Members,
and no Manager shall be prevented from receiving such salary by reason of the fact that he is also a Member of the Company.


 


5.12       Development
and Development Fee.


 


		5.12.1	Development Agreement. The Borrower and Developer shall enter into a Development Agreement
in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto and by this reference made a part hereof to govern the rights and responsibilities
of the parties, including a Development Fee payable to Developer as described below. Developer will cause the Project to be constructed
in a first class manner in accordance with the Plans and the Total Project Budget (including reasonable change orders within the
scope of authority provided by Lender) as mutually agreed upon by Developer and BR Member. The Developer shall be responsible to
obtain from the Project’s design professional certified documentation at Project completion that the Project has been built
in accordance with the approved Plans.



 


		5.12.2	General Contractor. Developer shall be responsible for arranging with Summit Contracting
Group, Inc. or another arms-length, third-party general contractor a guaranteed maximum price contract for construction of the
Project (the “GMP Contract”) for execution and approval by the Borrower; provided, that, (x) the pricing terms set
forth in the GMP Contract must comply with the Total Project Budget and (y) the BR Member's approval of the GMP Contract is required.



 


		5.12.3	Development Fee. Under and subject to the Development Agreement, Developer will be entitled
to earn a Development Fee equal to three percent (3%) of the Total Project Budget (exclusive of the Development Fee). The Development
Fee shall compensate Developer for all development management and project management services (including financial reporting) required
to complete the Project, through and including issuance of final certificates of occupancy for all buildings and apartments. To
the extent permitted by the Lender, the Development Fee shall be paid in 18 equal monthly installments, to commence upon execution
of the GMP Contract, from draws against the Loan.



 




    	17



    	 



    

  


		5.12.4	Development Information. During the construction process, Developer will provide to Borrower,
Company and BR Member copies of all Loan-related and draw-related information, including but not limited to monthly copies of the
construction draws, construction draws top sheets with budget-versus-actual information to Borrower, Company and BR Member, plus
full physical access to the Property and all documentation in connection with the development and construction of the Project.



 


		5.12.5	Developer Contribution. Without limitation, and for no additional charge or credit to the
Catalyst Member’s Capital Account, Catalyst Member shall cause Developer to contribute to the Borrower all of (a) Developer’s
ownership and contract rights in and to the subject lands and/or purchase agreements (including but not limited to Developer’s
Affiliate’s rights to acquire the Property in accordance with the Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Cost-Sharing Agreement)
(the “Land Contract”), (b) all design and construction plans for the Project (at Developer’s actual cost, free
and clear of all liabilities), (c) all other tangible and intangible rights associated with the Project and (d) all other items
appurtenant to the development of the Project (collectively, the “Developer Rights”).



 


		5.12.6	BR Member’s Owner Representative. The BR Member will be entitled to staff the Project,
at the expense of the Co-Tenants, with an owner’s representative throughout the construction period to oversee, supervise
and assist the Developer in the administration of the Project as needed by the Developer. The reasonable cost of the owner’s
representative, which shall not exceed $50,000, will be capitalized into the Total Project Budget and paid from the construction
draws to the extent approved by Lender (or, to the extent not so paid, added to the Capital Account of the BR Member and set off
on a dollar for dollar basis amounts owed for the owner’s representative).



 


		5.12.7	Warranties. Catalyst Member shall cause the Developer to use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause the general contractor to warrant to the Borrower and the Company the construction of the Project for twelve (12) months
after the Certificate of Occupancy is received for the Project such that the general contractor must promptly correct and repair,
at its sole cost and expense, all defects discovered during such period. The Company may assign such warranty and any subcontractor
warranties to any third party who purchases the Project from the Borrower during such period.



 




    	18



    	 



    

  


5.13       Investment
Banking Fee. At the Closing of the acquisition of the Property, the BR Member or its designee shall earn an investment banking
fee equal to one percent (1%) of the Total Project Budget (exclusive of the Development Fee and this investment banking fee). In
lieu of the Company paying the investment banking fee to the BR Member in cash, the BR Member shall be entitled to offset a portion
of its Initial Capital Contribution by the amount of the investment banking fee.


 


5.14       Total Project
Budget and Operating Budget.


 


		5.14.1	Total Project Budget. The Members have attached the current agreed form of Total Project
Budget to this Agreement as Exhibit C. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the signing of the GMP Contract, the
Members anticipate that they will amend Exhibit C by attaching a revised Total Project Budget that has been mutually approved
by the Members and the Lender. Subject to the approval of the final Total Project Budget by the Members and the Lender, the Members
hereby authorize Developer to construct the Project in accordance with the Total Project Budget, with such modifications as may
be agreed to by the Members pursuant to Section 7.07.



 


		5.14.2	Operating Budget. Other than with respect to the construction of the Project, the Company
shall cause the Co-Tenants to operate the Project under a business plan and an annual operating budget (each, an “Operating
Budget”) commencing for the 12-month period beginning as of the date of issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy
for the Project. The Catalyst Member as Manager shall deliver to the Members for approval the initial proposed Operating Budget,
and also by November 1st for each following calendar. After the Operating Budget has been approved, the Catalyst Member shall administratively
implement it on behalf of Company and the other Co-Tenants and may incur the expenditures and obligations therein provided. No
material changes or departures from any item in an approved Operating Budget shall be made by the Catalyst Member without the prior
approval of the BR Member. If an Operating Budget has not been approved by January 1st of any subsequent year, the Company
and the other Co-Tenants shall continue to operate the Project under the Operating Budget for the previous year with such adjustments
as may be necessary to reflect deletion of non-recurring expense items set forth in the previous Operating Budget and positive
or negative adjustments in insurance costs, taxes, utility costs and Debt Service payments. The Catalyst Member shall promptly
advise and inform the BR Member of any transaction, notice, event or proposal directly relating to the management and operation
of the Project, other assets of the Company or Borrower or the Company or the Borrower which does or is likely to significantly
affect, either adversely or favorably, the Project, other assets of the Company or Borrower or is expected to cause a material
deviation from the Operating Budget.



 




    	19



    	 



    

  


5.15       Management
Company. The Managers shall agree upon and cause the Borrower to enter into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”)
with a management company mutually agreed upon by the Members (“Management Company”) to manage, lease-up and operate
the Property pursuant to the Management Agreement. The Management Agreement shall require that Management Company operate the Project
in a first class manner, and in accordance with the standards and conditions for the type, style, class, use and location of the
Property, consistent with the Property’s Operating Budget. The Borrower shall pay Management Company a management fee in
the amount of no more than three percent (3%) of annual gross cash revenues (except during the lease up phase), payable monthly.


 


5.16       Operation
in Accordance with REOC/REIT Requirements.


 


		5.16.1	The Members acknowledge that BR Member or one or more of its Affiliates (an “BR Affiliate”)
intends to qualify as a “real estate operating company” or “venture capital operating company” within the
meaning of U.S. Department of Labor Regulation 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101 (a “REOC”), and agree that the Company
and its Subsidiaries shall be operated in a manner that will enable BR Member and such BR Affiliate to so qualify; provided, however,
in no event shall the foregoing require any loss of voting or decision rights to the Catalyst Member or result in any adverse effect
on the economic rights of the Catalyst Member. Except as disclosed to BR Member, Catalyst Member (a) shall not fund any Capital
Contribution with the ‘plan assets’ of any ‘employee benefit plan’ within the meaning of Section 3(3) of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or any ‘plan’ as defined by Section 4975 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.



 


		5.16.2	Except for the Property, neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries shall hold any investment, incur
any indebtedness or otherwise take any action that would cause any Member of the Company (or any Person holding an indirect interest
in the Company through an entity or series of entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to realize
any “unrelated business taxable income” as such term is defined in Code Sections 511 through 514, unless specifically
agreed to by the Members in writing. No Manager or Member shall be liable for any income or other taxes, damages, costs or expenses
incurred by the Company or any Member by reason of the recognition by the Company of UBTI, unless caused by its own willful misconduct
or gross negligence and not related to the Property.

		5.16.3	The Company (and any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company) may not engage
in any activities or hold any assets that would constitute or result in the occurrence of a REIT Prohibited Transaction as defined
herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the time a REIT Member is a Member of the
Company, none of the Company, any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company, nor any Member of the Company shall take or refrain
from taking any action which, or the effect of which, would constitute or result in the occurrence of a REIT Prohibited Transaction
by the Company or any direct or indirect Subsidiary thereof, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
but in amplification thereof:



 


		5.16.3.1	Entering into any lease, license, concession or other agreement or permitting any sublease, license,
concession or other agreement that provides for rent or other payment based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any
person, excluding for this purpose a lease that provides for rent based in whole or in part on a fixed percentage or percentages
of gross receipts or gross sales of any person without reduction for any costs of the lessee (and in the case of a sublease, without
reduction for any sublessor costs);



 


		5.16.3.2	Leasing, as a lessor, personal property, excluding for this purpose a lease of personal property
that is entered into in connection with a lease of real property where the rent attributable to the personal property is less than
15% of the total rent provided for under the lease;



 


		5.16.3.3	Acquiring or holding any debt investments, excluding for these purposes “debt” solely
between wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Company, unless (I) the amount of interest income received or accrued by the Company under
such loan does not, directly or indirectly, depend in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person, and (II) the debt
is fully secured by mortgages on real property or on interests in real property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
in the case of debt issued to the Company by a Subsidiary which is treated as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” of the REIT
Member, such debt shall be secured by a mortgage or similar security interest, or by a pledge of the equity ownership of a subsidiary
of such taxable REIT subsidiary;



 


		5.16.3.4	Acquiring or holding, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the outstanding securities of any
one issuer (by vote or value) other than an entity which either (i) is taxable as a partnership or a disregarded entity for United
States federal income tax purposes, (ii) has properly elected to be a taxable REIT subsidiary of the REIT Member by jointly filing
with REIT, IRS Form 8875, or (iii) has properly elected to be a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

services to the tenants of any property that is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company other than (i) amounts received for
services that are customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of real property of a similar class in the geographic
areas in which the Property is located where such services are either provided by (A) an Independent Contractor (as defined in
Section 856(d)(3) of the Code) who is adequately compensated for such services and from which the Company or REIT Member do not,
directly or indirectly, derive revenue or (B) a taxable REIT subsidiary of REIT Member who is adequately compensated for such services
or (ii) amounts received for services that are customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of space for occupancy
only (as opposed to being rendered primarily for the convenience of the Property’s tenants);



 


		5.16.3.6	Entering into any agreement where a material amount of income received or accrued by the Company
under such agreement, directly or indirectly, does not qualify as either (i) “rents from real property” or (ii) “interest
on obligations secured by mortgages on real property or on interests in real property,” in each case as such terms are defined
in Section 856(c) of the Code;



 


		5.16.3.7	Holding cash of the Company available for operations or distribution in any manner other than a

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF MEMBERS


 


6.01         Limitation
on Liability. Each Members’ liability shall be limited as set forth in this Operating Agreement, the Act and other applicable
law.


 


6.02         No Liability
for Company Obligations. No Member will have any personal liability for any debts or losses of the Company beyond its respective
Capital Contributions, except as provided by law or otherwise provided by separate agreement among the Members.


 




    	23



    	 



    

  


6.03       List
of Members. Upon written request of any Member, the Company shall provide a list showing the names, addresses and Membership
Interest and Economic Interest of all Members and any other information required by Section 18-305 of the Act and maintained pursuant
to Section 11.02.


 


6.04       Dissenters’
Rights. No Member shall have appraisal or dissenters’ rights pursuant to Section 18-210 of the Act.


 


6.05       Financing
and Recourse Obligations; Refinancing.


 


(a)          The
Catalyst Member will use commercially reasonable efforts to secure a Loan from a Lender, which Loan shall be in an amount no less
than 70% (and may be up to 75%) of total development costs as set forth on the Total Project Budget subject to market terms and
conditions, with Borrower serving as the borrower; provided however, any “transfer” restrictions therein shall be at
the sole but reasonable discretion of the BR Member. In the event that the Catalyst Member fails to secure a Loan within six (6)
months after the date hereof, then, subject to Section 7.07, the BR Member shall have the right to secure a Loan on behalf of the
Borrower.


 


(b)          If
required in connection with the Loan, the Catalyst Member and/or an affiliate of the Catalyst Member acceptable to Lender in its
sole discretion shall be obligated to provide, or cause its Affiliate to provide (subject to the requirements of the applicable
Lender), any required guaranty or indemnity, including, without limitation, any project completion and repayment guaranties (each,
a “Recourse Guaranty”) and any “bad boy” non-recourse carveout guaranty and/or any environmental indemnification
agreement (each a “Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty”); provided, however, the terms and conditions of such guaranty or
indemnity shall be subject to the approval of the Catalyst Member in its sole and absolute discretion (each, as the same may be
amended or restated from time to time, a “Loan Guaranty”). The BR Member, in its sole and absolute discretion may,
if it elects to do so, provide or cause one of its Affiliates to provide, a Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty on terms and conditions
satisfactory to BR Member in its sole discretion. Neither BR Member nor any Affiliate of BR Member shall be required to execute
a Recourse Guaranty or Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Catalyst Member, for so long as the Catalyst Member or its Affiliate
has any outstanding Loan Guaranty, may unilaterally in the first instance make a call upon the Members for Additional Capital Contributions
to fund on a timely basis (other for than Hard Cost Overruns or Soft Cost Overruns, or for any such portions of the capital that
the Brown Co-Tenants would be obligated to fund under the TIC Agreement, or for amounts equivalent to Section 8.04(a) Advances)
any Debt Service Shortfall or other payment which if unpaid would constitute a payment default on any such guaranty or under
the Loan (a “Protection Payment”). Furthermore, if there is an imminent payment default under the Loan and the Catalyst
Member has not initiated the capital call noted above, then the BR Member may do so to the same extent necessary to raise the necessary
capital to make a Protection Payment.


 




    	24



    	 



    

  


In the event that either Member elects
to make such capital call for a Protection Payment, it shall cause the Company to cause the Borrower to issue a Cash Call Notice
(as that term is defined in the TIC Agreement) to the Co-Tenants, and they shall each have fourteen (14) days to fund their respective
shares of the required capital; namely, the Brown Co-Tenants shall be obligated to fund ten percent (10%) as Additional Cash Contributions
pursuant to the TIC Agreement, and the Company shall be required to fund the other ninety percent (90%) (all of which shall be
funded by the BR Member as an Additional Capital Contribution pursuant to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Brown Co-Tenants do not timely fund their 10% share, then the Company shall be required to fund the full one hundred percent (100%)
of the amount required pursuant to the Cash Call Notice (of which 90% shall be funded by the BR Member and 10% shall be funded
by the Catalyst Member as an Additional Capital Contribution pursuant to this Agreement).


 


If either the BR Member, on the one hand,
or both the Brown Co-Tenants and the Catalyst Member, on the other hand, fails or refuses to timely contribute its above share
of such call for Additional Capital Contributions for a Protection Payment, then the Member initiating the capital call, as the
sole remedy against the other Member, shall have the right to unilaterally cause the Borrower, but only so long as and only to
the extent necessary to prevent or cure such default under a Loan Guaranty, to (1) refinance the Loan on commercially reasonable
terms, (2) obtain commercially reasonable supplemental loans secured by assets of the Borrower, (3) enter into negotiations with
the Lender to restructure the Loan and modify the terms of the Loan on commercially reasonable terms, (4) sell the Project, (5)
exercise the Buy/Sell under Section 12.06 (notwithstanding any “lockout” period in Section 12.06) or (6) in the case
of the Catalyst Member, initiate its Put Right. For avoidance of doubt, failure to fund such call for Additional Capital Contributions
shall not give rise to Shortfall funding rights or treatment under Section 8.04(e) to the extent one Member, but not the other,
funds.


 


(d)          The
Catalyst Member shall have the unilateral right to cause the Borrower to refinance the Loan with Standard Market Financing at any
time; provided, however:


 


(A)       (i) before closing the new
refinancing loan the Catalyst Member must provide the terms of such proposed new loan to the BR Member (including without limitation
a copy of a fully negotiated term sheet or similar evidence of the terms of the proposed Standard Market Financing), (ii) the BR
Member shall have sixty (60) days from the date it receives the terms of such new proposed loan from the Catalyst Member within
which to obtain a loan proposal with the same or better economic terms than those obtained by the Catalyst Member (without requirement
for any guaranty or indemnity agreement by the Catalyst Member or any of its Affiliates, except as may have been included in the
Standard Market Financing proposal provided by the Catalyst Member), (iii) if the BR Member is able to obtain better loan terms
than those obtained by the Catalyst Member, the Company and the Members shall take any and all actions necessary to cause the Borrower
to close the new loan proposed by the BR Member and (iv) if the BR Member is unable to obtain better loan terms, the Company and
the Members shall take any and all actions necessary to cause the Borrower to close the Standard Market Financing obtained by the
Catalyst Member; and


 




    	25



    	 



    

  


(B) in no event shall any such
refinancing loan under this Section 6.05(d), (i) include any prepayment lock-outs (but this provision does not prohibit
breakage costs for loans based on LIBOR or other matched-funding arrangements or prepayment premiums not based on yield maintenance),
(ii) provide for a principal amount in excess of the then-current principal amount of the Loan (except for an increase in principal
to pay transactional costs for closing of the refinancing), (iii) provide for additional interest or similar payments to the lender
based on cash flow or profits of the Company or capital proceeds realized by the Company, (iv) except for a standard CMBS financing
transaction, be pooled (including as to collateralized or defaults) with any property not owned by the Company or (v) require the
BR Member or its Affiliates to take on any guaranty obligations beyond that which it had in connection with the Loan.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Catalyst Member has not prior to 120 days before maturity of the Loan put forth a Standard Market Financing proposal to
refinance the Loan, then the BR Member may proceed to refinance it on commercially reasonable terms so long as such refinancing
meets the same requirements and limitations in subsection (B) above and such financing does not require any guaranty or indemnity
agreement by the Catalyst Member or any of its Affiliates beyond a Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty of substantially similar scope
to that signed by the BR Member or its Affiliates.


 


6.06       Default.
If any Member or its Affiliate commits any Default Action (as defined below), then, provided the other Member and/or its Affiliate
is not in material breach or default hereunder and has not otherwise committed a Default Action, in addition to the rights available
under this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5.09) and any other legal or equitable remedy available to the non-breaching
Member, the non-breaching Member shall be entitled to recover its actual damages, including reasonable attorney’s fees (but
specifically excluding special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages) sustained by the non-breaching Member as a result
of such Default Action. The following actions are collectively referred to as “Default Actions”: (1) Bankruptcy of
a Member, (2) willful misconduct or gross negligence, (3) willful misappropriation of Company or Borrower funds, (4) the transfer
of a Membership Interest in violation of this Agreement (5) any action or omission that, to the extent caused solely by a Member’s
actions or omissions, results in Lender asserting liability under a Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty (but expressly excluding therefrom,
any liquidity based non-recourse carveout), (6) withdrawal of a Member in violation of the Agreement; (7) solely with respect to
the Catalyst Member, the Bankruptcy of Developer or any Affiliate of Catalyst that has provided a Loan Guaranty, but only to the
extent that the Bankruptcy by a Catalyst Affiliate triggers a default under the terms of the applicable Loan and (8) solely with
respect to the BR Member, the Bankruptcy of Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. following the date that it first acquires a
direct or indirect common interest in the Company or the Project; provided, that the non-defaulting Member shall provide notice
to the defaulting Member of the occurrence of any Default Action under clauses (1), (4), (5), (6), (7) or (8) and the defaulting
Member shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of such notice to cure such Default Action; provided, however, that if more
than thirty (30) days is reasonably required to cure such Default Action and if the defaulting Member has commenced to cure within
the original thirty (30) day cure period and diligently continues to cure such default, then the defaulting Member shall receive
such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the Default Action (not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days).

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMPANY AND CAPITAL
ACCOUNTS


 


8.01       Members’
Initial Capital Contributions. Each Member shall be obligated to contribute such amount as is set forth in Exhibit “A”
hereto as its share of the Initial Capital Contribution. The Members shall make their entire Initial Capital Contribution on the
date hereof. In addition to the Members’ Initial Capital Contributions, Exhibit A for informational purposes only
reflects the initial capital contributions into the Borrower that will be required from and simultaneously made by the Brown Co-Tenants.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members agree that all Pursuit Costs (as such term is defined in the Cost-Sharing Agreement)
previously incurred by a Member or its Affiliate either (i) shall be deemed an Initial Capital Contribution of such Member and
reduce the amount otherwise to be contributed by it to the Company or (ii) shall be refunded to such Member by the Borrower such
that each of the Co-Tenants bears its pro rata share of such amount.


 


8.02       Additional
Contributions. Except as set this Article 8, no Member shall be required to make any Capital Contributions to the Company.


 


8.03       Loans
to Company. To the extent approved by the Managers and Members pursuant to Section 7.07, any Member may make a secured or unsecured
loan to the Company or the Borrower.


 


8.04       Mandatory
Additional Capital Contributions; Cost Savings.


 


(a)          Non-Development
Cost Overruns. Except as separately addressed in Section 8.04(b) for Hard Cost Overruns and Soft Cost Overruns, in the event
the Borrower is reasonably expected to incur a Non-Development Cost Overrun not solely caused by the Catalyst Member, the BR Member
or their respective Affiliates and is expected to result in the Borrower having an imminent cash deficit, and such funds are not
obtained pursuant to Section 8.03 above or pursuant to the TIC Agreement, the Catalyst Member as Manager shall in the first
instance determine the amount of required funds (but if it fails to timely do so, the BR Member as Manager may do so), shall notify
the Management Committee of same and shall recommend that the Management Committee make a capital call for such funds pursuant
to this Section 8.04(a).


 




    	30



    	 



    

  


Upon the receipt of such
recommendation, the Management Committee shall evaluate it in good faith and determine whether such capital call is reasonably
required under the circumstances. In the event that the Management Committee elects to make such capital call, it shall cause the
Company to cause the Borrower to issue a Cash Call Notice (as that term is defined in the TIC Agreement) to the Co-Tenants, and
they shall each have fourteen (14) days to fund their respective shares of the required capital; namely, the Brown Co-Tenants shall
be obligated to fund ten percent (10%) as Additional Cash Contributions pursuant to the TIC Agreement, and the Company shall be
required to fund the other ninety percent (90%) (all of which shall be funded by the BR Member as an Additional Capital Contribution
pursuant to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Brown Co-Tenants do not timely fund their 10% share, then the
Company shall be required to fund the full one hundred percent (100%) of the amount required pursuant to the Cash Call Notice (of
which 90% shall be funded by the BR Member and 10% shall be funded by the Catalyst Member as an Additional Capital Contribution
pursuant to this Agreement). These fundings will, in turn, be contributed to the Borrower as Additional Cash Contributions (as
that term is defined and used in the TIC Agreement) and then returned by the Borrower back to the Company on a fourth priority
basis, in accordance with the provisions of the TIC Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing: (i) the Catalyst Member must on its own account solely fund into the Company any Non-Development Cost Overrun caused
by, or any other additional capital required by the Company because of, a Default Action of the Catalyst Member or its Affiliates
(a “Catalyst Section 8.04(a) Advance”) (to be paid back as provided in Section 9.01(f) below, but without any interest
or return thereon); and (ii) the BR Member must on its own account solely pay over to the Company any Non-Development Cost Overrun
caused by, or any other additional capital required by the Company because of, a Default Action of the BR Member or its Affiliates
(a “BR Section 8.04(a) Advance” and, generically with the Catalyst Section 8.04(a) Advance, the “Section 8.04(a)
Advance”) (to be paid back as provided in Section 9.01(f) below, but without any interest or return thereon).


  


(b)          Hard
Cost Overruns and Soft Cost Overruns. In the event the Borrower is reasonably expected to incur a Hard Cost Overrun or Soft
Cost Overrun, the Catalyst Member shall determine the amount of required funds to keep the Loan “in balance,” and shall
promptly notify the Management Committee of same and recommend that the Management Committee make a capital call for such funds
pursuant to this Section 8.04(b). Upon the receipt of the recommendation of the Catalyst Member, the Management Committee shall
evaluate it in good faith and determine whether such capital call is reasonably required under the circumstances. In the event
that the Management Committee elects to make such capital call, it shall cause the Company to cause the Borrower to issue a Cash
Call Notice (as that term is defined in the TIC Agreement) to the Co-Tenants, and they shall each have fourteen (14) days to fund
their respective shares of the required capital; namely, the Brown Co-Tenants shall be obligated to fund ten percent (10%) as Additional
Cash Contributions pursuant to the TIC Agreement, and the Company shall be required to fund the other ninety percent (90%) (of
which 55.56% shall be funded by the BR Member and 44.44% shall be funded by the Catalyst Member as an Additional Capital Contribution
pursuant to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Brown Co-Tenants do not timely fund their 10% share, then the
Company shall be required to fund the full one hundred percent (100%) of the amount required pursuant to the Cash Call Notice (of
which 50% shall be funded by the BR Member and 50% shall be funded by the Catalyst Member as an Additional Capital Contribution
pursuant to this Agreement).


 




    	31



    	 



    

  


(c)          In
the event a Member fails (as applicable, the “Defaulting Member”) to make all the Additional Capital Contributions
required above, or its Section 8.04(a) Advances, by the due date (the “Contribution Default Date”), the non-Defaulting
Member(s) may (but shall not be obligated to) contribute the unpaid portion that the Defaulting Member was obligated to fund (the
“Shortfall”). If there is more than one non-Defaulting Member desiring to contribute the Shortfall on behalf of a Defaulting
Member, then such non-Defaulting Members shall be entitled to do so in such amounts as they may agree among each other, or, in
the absence of such agreement, in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages. For the avoidance of doubt, it is the intent
of the Members that any such Shortfall will, in turn, be contributed to the Borrower and that the Borrower will then return such
Shortfall to the Company on a priority basis, in accordance with the provisions of the TIC Agreement.


 


(d)          Cost
Savings. With the approval of the Lender, the Catalyst Member may reallocate Cost Savings within Hard Costs or Soft Costs to
other line items within either such category of the Total Project Budget (including the contingency for Hard Costs or Soft Costs)
in order to pay for Hard Cost Overruns before having to make a capital call to pay for such Hard Cost Overruns or to pay for Soft
Cost Overruns before having to make a capital call to pay for such Soft Cost Overruns. The Catalyst Member shall provide to the
BR Member, on a monthly basis, a list of any proposed Cost Savings to be reallocated to another line item of the Total Project
Budget, identifying the line item from which the Cost Savings originated and the line item to which the Cost Savings were reallocated
if approved by the Lender. In the event Lender approves a construction draw on the Loan to pay the aggregate Cost Savings to Borrower,
then in such event the Catalyst Member shall be entitled to 100% of the proceeds derived from such funding draw on the Loan.


 


(e)          Failure
to Make Section 8.04(a) Advances or Fund Cost Overruns. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and in addition
to any other rights available under this Agreement, if a non-Defaulting Member contributes a Shortfall amount on behalf of a Defaulting
Member in connection with the failure to make Additional Capital Contributions required to fund Hard Cost Overruns or Soft Cost
Overruns or Section 8.04(a) Advances, then the non-Defaulting Member shall be credited with Additional Capital Contributions at
a 3:1 ratio for each such dollar of Shortfall/Additional Capital Contribution so made on behalf of the Defaulting Member. For example,
if the Brown Co-Tenants fail to fund their share of a Hard Cost Overrun and the Catalyst Member fails on their behalf to do so
as required under Section 8.04(b), the BR Member shall have the right but not the obligation to fund such amount to the Company
as an Additional Capital Contribution and, to the extent that it does, shall be credited at a 3:1 ratio (meaning, for every $100,000
of Additional Capital Contribution made by the BR Member for that purpose, the BR Member would be credited with having made $300,000
of Additional Capital Contributions and the 10% Additional Contribution Priority Return will be calculated on such $300,000 figure).
For the avoidance of doubt, as provided in the TIC Agreement, any such Shortfalls/Additional Capital Contributions made under this
Section 8.04(e) and contributed to the Borrower will be entitled to the same 3:1 ratio at the Borrower level and shall be returned
by the Borrower to the Company with the three times multiple, along with any further preferred return thereon, on a priority basis,
in accordance with the TIC Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.04(e) shall not apply with respect to the
failure of a Member to fund Non-Development Cost Overruns.

(f)          The
remedies provided in this Section 8.04 with respect to any Member’s failure to make any Additional Capital Contribution or
Section 8.04(a) Advance shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the non-Defaulting Member for such failure.


 


8.05       Withdrawal
or Reduction of Members’ Contributions to Capital.


 


(a)          A
Member shall not receive out of the Company’s property any part of such Member’s Capital Contributions until all liabilities
of the Company, except liabilities to Members on account of their Capital Contributions, have been paid or there remains property
of the Company sufficient to pay them.


 


(b)          A
Member, irrespective of the nature of such Member’s Capital Contribution, has only the right to demand and receive cash in
return for such Capital Contribution.


 


8.06       Maintenance
of Capital Accounts. The Company shall establish and maintain a Capital Account for each Member and Economic Interest Owner.
Each Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by (a) the amount of any Capital Contribution contributed by the Member
to the Company, (b) the fair market value of any property, as determined by the Company and the Member by arm’s length agreement
at the time of contribution (net of liabilities assumed by the Company or subject to which the Company takes such property within
the meaning of Section 752 of the Code), and (c) the Member’s share of Profits and of any separately allocated items of income
or gain (including any gain or income allocated to the Member to reflect the difference between the book value and tax basis of
assets contributed by such Member). Each Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by (a) the amount of any money distributed
to the Member by the Company (excluding payments received by a Member from the Company as repayment of a loan by the Company to
the Member), (b) the fair market value of any property distributed to the Member (net of liabilities of the Company assumed by
the Member or subject to which the Member takes such property within the meaning of Section 752 of the Code), and (c) the Member’s
share of Losses and of any separately allocated items of deduction or loss (including any loss or deduction allocated to the Member
to reflect the difference between the book value and tax basis of assets contributed by the Member).

ALLOCATIONS OF NET PROFITS AND NET
LOSSES


 


10.01      Allocation
of Profits and Losses. Profits and Losses for any Fiscal Year or other
period of the Company will be allocated to the Members as follows: 


 




    	34



    	 



    

  


(a)          Allocations
of Profits and Losses for Capital Account Purposes. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 10.02
and 10.03, Profits and Losses of the Company for any Fiscal Year or portion thereof shall be allocated among the Capital Accounts
of the Members in such a manner that would cause, to the extent possible, the Capital Accounts of the Members as of the end of
a Fiscal Year or portion thereof, after adjustment for all contributions and distributions during the year, and after adjustment
for the special allocations set forth in Sections 10.02 and 10.03 (including the allocations of such Members’ shares of the
“partnership minimum gain” and “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” (as such terms are used in Regulation
Section 1.704-2) not otherwise required to be taken into account during such period), to equal the aggregate distributions
that the Members would be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 9.01, in each case determined as if (i) all assets of the
Company, including cash, were sold for their Gross Asset Values (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be “booked
up” to fair market value for this purpose outside of an actual liquidation), (ii) all Company liabilities, including the
Company’s share of any liability of any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which the
Company is a partner, were satisfied in cash according to their terms (each nonrecourse liability is limited to the book value
of the assets securing such liability) and (iii) the remaining proceeds were distributed in accordance with Section 9.01.
The Managers, based on the advice of the Company’s tax advisors, shall have the authority to correct or adjust any allocation
provision hereunder as it determines to be necessary or appropriate (and not unfairly discriminatory against any Member) for such
allocations, in the aggregate, to be made in the manner provided in the first sentence of this Section 10.01.


 


(b)          Limitations
on Losses for Capital Account Purposes. Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.01(a) to the contrary, the Managers will
not allocate any item of loss or deduction to a Member that would cause or increase a deficit balance in such Member’s Capital
Account (as increased by such Member’s share of “partnership minimum gain” and “partner nonrecourse debt
minimum gain”, as such terms are defined in Regulations Section 1.704-2 and applied to the Members of the Company),
and will make special allocations of the Profits or Losses of the Company among the Members as necessary to cause the allocations
under this Section 10.01 to be respected under Code Section 704(b) and Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(1). The Managers
shall, to the extent possible and in whatever manner they deem appropriate, make subsequent curative allocations of other items
of income, gain, loss and deduction to offset any such special tax allocations.


 


10.02     Special
Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:


 


(a)          Minimum
Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 10, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain
during any Company Fiscal Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if
necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined
in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion
to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined
in accordance with Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations. This Section 10.02(a) is intended to comply with the minimum
gain chargeback requirement in such Section of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.


 


(b)          Member
Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 10, except Section 10.02(a), if there is
a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Company Fiscal Year, each Member who
has a share of the Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent
years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain attributable to such Member
Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence
shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be
so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations. This Section 10.02(b) is
intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such Section of the Regulations and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.


 




    	35



    	 



    

  


(c)          Qualified
Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or Distributions described in Regulations
Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member
in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit
of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 10.02(c) shall be made if and
only to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in
this Article 10 have been tentatively made as if this Section 10.02(c) were not in the Agreement.


 


(d)          Gross
Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company Fiscal Year that is in excess
of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore, and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to
restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall
be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation
pursuant to this Section 10.02(d) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account
in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article 10 have been tentatively made as if Section 10.02(c)
hereof and this Section 10.02(d) were not in the Agreement.


 


(e)          Nonrecourse
Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance
with their respective Ownership Percentages.


 


(f)          Member
Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specially allocated
to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse
Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).


 


(g)          Section 754
Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b)
or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in
determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the
adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially
allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant
to such Section of the Regulations.


 




    	36



    	 



    

  


10.03     Curative
Allocations.


 


(a)          The
allocations set forth in Sections 10.01(b) and 10.2 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain
requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall
be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or
deduction pursuant to this Section 10.03. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 10 (other than the
Regulatory Allocations), the Managers shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction
in whatever manner they determine appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital
Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations
were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section 10.01.


 


(b)          The
Managers shall have reasonable discretion, with respect to each Company Fiscal Year, to (i) apply the provisions of Section 10.03(a)
hereof in whatever manner is likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Regulatory Allocations,
and (ii) divide all allocations pursuant to Section 10.03(a) hereof among the Members in a manner that is likely to minimize
such economic distortions.


 


10.04     Tax
Allocations.


 


(a)          Except
as set forth in this Section 10.04, allocations for income tax purposes of items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credits,
and basis therefor, shall be made in the same manner as allocations for book purposes set forth in Sections 10.01, 10.02 and 10.03
hereof. In applying this Section 10.04, each item of income, gain, expense and loss for a period not specially allocated shall
be allocated in the same proportions as the allocation of Profits and Losses for such period.


 


(b)          In
the event of a contribution of property other than cash to the Company, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such contributed
property shall be shared among the Members for tax purposes so as to take account of the variation between the basis of the property
to the Company and its fair market value at the time of contribution in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations
thereunder.


 


(c)          In
the event the book value of any Company asset is adjusted to equal its fair market value in accordance with Regulations Sections
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d) and 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such
asset shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its fair
market value pursuant to Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.


 


(d)          In
accordance with Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, including Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i),
items of income, gain, deduction and loss with respect to any property that is properly reflected on the books of the Company at
a book value that differs from the adjusted tax basis of such property within the meaning of the Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g)(1)
(“Book Property”) (and, if necessary, any other property of the Company) shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated
among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of the Book Property to the Company for federal
income tax purposes and its book value.


 




    	37



    	 



    

  


(e)          To
the extent of any recapture income resulting from the sale or other taxable disposition of assets of the Company, the amount of
any gain from such disposition allocated to a Member (or a successor in interest) for federal income tax purposes pursuant to the
above provisions shall be deemed to be recapture income to the extent that such Member has been allocated or has claimed any deduction
directly or indirectly giving rise to the treatment of such gain as recapture income.


 


(f)          The
items of income, gain, deduction and loss for tax purposes allocated to the Members pursuant to this Section 10.04 shall not
be reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made
by the Managers in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intent of this Agreement and is consistent with the economic
arrangement among the Members.


 


(g)          Pursuant
to Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members hereby agree to allocate excess nonrecourse liabilities of the
Company in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages.


 


10.05         Varying
Interest in Company. Allocations to any Member whose Membership Interest changes during a Company Fiscal Year or to any Member
who is a Member for less than a full Company Fiscal Year, whether by reason of the admission of a Member, the withdrawal of a Member,
a non-pro rata contribution of capital to the Company or any other event described in Section 706(d)(1) of the Code and the
Regulations issued thereunder, shall be made in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code and the Regulations promulgated
thereunder to take into account the varying Interests of the Members in the Company during the Company Fiscal Year.

TRANSFERABILITY


 


12.01     General
Prohibition. Except as provided in Sections 12.02, 12.06 and 12.09 hereof, in which event no consent from any party shall be
required to effectuate the transfer(s) described therein, no Member or Economic Interest Owner may assign, convey, sell, transfer,
liquidate, encumber, or in any way alienate (collectively a “Transfer”), all or any part of its Interest without the
prior written consent of the Members, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole discretion of any Member; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall prohibit any transfers of direct or indirect equity interests in the Members so long as, in
the case of the Catalyst Member, such transfers do not result in a Catalyst Change of Control until after the Termination Conditions
have been satisfied. Any attempted Transfer of all or any portion of an Interest without the necessary consent, or as otherwise
permitted hereunder, shall be null and void and shall have no effect whatsoever. Upon the transfer of a Membership Interest in
accordance with this Article 12, the Ownership Percentages of the transferring Member and of the transferee shall be adjusted accordingly.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Transfers shall be permitted that would violate the terms of any
Loan documents.


 


12.02     Affiliate
Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the following Transfers shall not require
the approval set forth in Section 12.01:

activities of the BR Member such that BR REIT can consolidate the BR Member on its audited financial statements; and


 


(b)          Provided
only that the development of the Project is complete (as evidenced by the delivery of a final certificate of occupancy, the delivery
of an architect’s certificate of completion and the release of the final contractor retainage), any Transfer by Catalyst

Interest Owner only and shall be entitled only to the transferor’s Economic Interest to the extent assigned. Such transferee
shall not be entitled to vote on any question regarding the Company, and the Ownership Percentage associated with the transferred
Economic Interest shall not be considered to be outstanding for voting purposes.


 


12.05     Successors
as to Economic Rights. References in this Operating Agreement to Members shall also be deemed to constitute a reference to

may be broken by the invocation of the provisions of this Section 12.06; provided, however, this Section 12.06 may be invoked if
and only if such deadlock occurs after the date which is 24 months from the date of Project Stabilization. Prior to invoking
the provisions of this Article, the Members shall in good faith meet within fifteen (15) days of such deadlock, and use their reasonable
efforts to resolve any disagreements regarding any Major Decision. As used in this Section 12.06, “deadlock” shall
mean the inability of the Members to unanimously agree with respect to a Major Decision that requires unanimity.


 


(b)          Either
Member may initiate the buy/sell procedure by providing a written notice (the “Value Notice”) to the other Member.
The Member which initiates the buy/sell procedure, is referred to herein as the “Offeror.” The Member who receives
the Value Notice is referred to herein as the “Offeree.” The Value Notice shall include an offer by the Offeror to
purchase all (and not less than all) of the Membership Interest(s) owned by the Offeree and an offer by the Offeror to sell all
(and not less than all) of the Membership Interest(s) owned by the Offeror to the Offeree. In the case of the BR Member, the offer
referred to in the preceding sentence shall also include an offer to purchase the co-tenancy interest of the Brown Co-Tenants;
and in the case of the Catalyst Member, the offer referred to in the preceding sentence shall also include an offer to sell the
co-tenancy interest of the Brown Co-Tenants (with respect to which the Catalyst Member represents to the BR Member that it has
such drag-along rights). The Value Notice shall specify an amount (the “Stated Amount”), which shall in any case be
not less than the aggregate of all indebtedness owed at that time by the Borrower, and which shall be used in the calculations
of the purchase price pursuant to this Section 12.06. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the receipt of a Value Notice from the
BR Member, the Catalyst Member shall have the right, to the extent available pursuant to Section 12.09, to exercise the Put Right
contained in Section 12.09 below by issuing a Put Notice within ten (10) business days thereafter, in which case the Value Notice
shall be deemed to have been rescinded by the BR Member.


 


(c)          The
Offeree shall have forty-five (45) days from its receipt of the Value Notice to provide a written notice (the “Election Notice”)
to the Offeror stating either that the Offeree will sell all (and not less than all) its Membership Interest(s) to the Offeror
or that the Offeree will purchase all (and not less than all) the Offeror’s Membership Interest(s) at the purchase price
referenced in Section 12.06(b) hereof. If the Offeree fails to give a timely Election Notice, the Offeree shall be deemed to have
elected to sell all (and not less than all) its Membership Interest(s) to the Offeror. The Election Notice shall specify the date
of closing (the “Buy-Sell Closing Date”), which date shall be at least thirty (30) days after the giving of the Election
Notice, but in any event not later than the ninetieth (90th) day after such notice. If the Offeree fails to provide an Election
Notice, the Buy-Sell Closing Date shall be held on the first Business Day which is at least ninety (90) days after the giving of
the Value Notice. For the sake of clarity, all references in this Section and in Sections 12.07 and 12.08 to the Membership Interest
of the Catalyst Member shall be deemed to include a reference to the co-tenancy interests of the Brown Co-Tenants, to the extent
applicable.

(d)          The
Member (or Members) that finally becomes obligated to sell its or their Membership Interest(s) is sometimes referred to herein
collectively as the “Seller,” and the Member or Members that finally becomes obligated to purchase the other Member’s
or Members’ Membership Interest(s) is sometimes referred to herein as the “Buyer.” If the Catalyst Member is
the Seller, then the term shall also be deemed to include the Brown Co-Tenants.


 


(e)          The
aggregate purchase price for the Seller’s Membership Interest(s) pursuant to this Section 12.06 shall be that amount which
would be distributed to the Seller pursuant to Section 9.01 above (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement,
but after liquidating all Reserves then existing and without establishing any additional Reserves) if the Project was sold by the
Borrower on the Buy-Sell Closing Date for a gross sales price equal to the Stated Amount and all liabilities and obligations of
the Borrower were satisfied from the proceeds from such sales price and any remaining proceeds were distributed to the Co-Tenants
by the Borrower as required under applicable agreements, and then the proceeds received by the Company were distributed to the
Members in accordance with Section 9.01. If the Catalyst Member is the Seller, then the purchase price shall also include that
amount that would be distributed to the Brown Co-Tenants directly pursuant to the TIC Agreement in connection with the sale of
the Project, with any such portion of the price allocable to the Brown Co-Tenants paid directly thereto in exchange for full and
complete relinquishment of any and all of their rights in and to the Trust or the Property. No Member shall be entitled to any
sales fee or commission if either Member exercises the buy/sell procedure set forth in this Section 12.06.


 


(f)          The
closing of a purchase of Membership Interest(s) pursuant to this Section 12.06 shall be held on the Buy-Sell Closing Date, subject
to the terms and conditions specified herein.


 


(g)         As
of the effective date of any transfer of a Membership Interest(s) pursuant to this Section 12.06, the Buyer shall assume all obligations
of the Seller with respect to the Membership Interest so transferred, including any liability of the Seller or any Affiliate thereof
with respect to any Company liabilities. Upon such transfer, the Seller’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall
terminate with respect to such transferred Membership Interest, except as to indemnity rights of such Member under this Agreement
attributable to acts or events occurring prior to the effective date of such transfer. If the Buyer is the BR Member, the Buyer
shall also assume any obligations of the Brown Co-Tenants pursuant to the TIC Agreement.


 


(h)          Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Catalyst Member is the Buyer, the Catalyst Member shall have the right to assign
all of any portion of its rights under this Section 12.06 to one or more of the Brown Co-Tenants or their Affiliates.


 


12.07     Escrow
and Closing of Buy-Sell.


 


(a)          Closing
Time and Location. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the closing of any offer of a Membership Interest between
the Members pursuant to Section 12.06 shall take place through a mutually agreed escrow agent located in Atlanta, Georgia.


 




    	43



    	 



    

  


(b)          Required
Documents. Prior to or at the closing, Seller shall supply to Buyer all documents customarily required (or reasonably required
by Buyer) to make a good and sufficient conveyance of such Membership Interest to the Buyer, which documents shall be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and Seller. All payments shall be by wire transfer of immediately available funds.


 


(c)          Conditions
Precedent to Closing. The obligation of Buyer to pay the purchase price shall be conditioned upon the Membership Interest being
transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances (except for, in the case of the co-tenancy interest of the Brown
Co-Tenants, non-monetary liens otherwise affecting the Property that were of record on the date hereof or that were otherwise previously
approved by the Members (“Permitted Liens”)). This condition is for the sole benefit of Buyer and may be waived by
Buyer in whole or in part in its sole discretion.


 


(d)          Closing
Costs. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with the closing, and costs of
the escrow or closing, including, without limitation all premiums for title insurance and any escrow fees, recording charges, and
transfer taxes arising from the closing of the buy-sell transaction, shall be borne or allocated in the manner customary in the
area in which the Project is located and, to the extent no custom exists, shall be shared equally by Seller and Buyer. Unless previously
deducted in determining the price for the Membership Interest, the Buyer shall deduct from the price otherwise payable to the Seller
an amount equal to all liens, claims and encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable amount, if any, which encumber the Seller’s
Membership Interest being transferred which are not released or repaid on or prior to the closing (if Buyer elects to waive the
conditions set forth in Section 12.07(c)).


 


(e)          Warranty
of Title. The Seller shall represent, warrant and agree that its Membership Interest being sold hereunder is free of all liens,
claims and encumbrances (except liens, claims or encumbrances that were deducted in determining the applicable price of the Membership
Interest and except for Permitted Liens) and that the Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer from any such
liens, claims and encumbrances.


 


(f)          Closing
of Buy-Sell Transaction. At the closing of a sale of a Membership Interest by one Member to the other Member pursuant to Section
12.06 hereof, the following shall occur:


 


(i)          The
Seller shall convey and assign to the Buyer or its designee the entire Membership Interest of the Seller, free and clear of all
liens, claims and encumbrances (other than liens, claims and encumbrances that were waived by Buyer and deducted in determining
the applicable price of the Membership Interest and except for Permitted Liens), and the Seller and the Buyer shall execute all
documents which may be reasonably required to give effect to the sale and purchase of such Membership Interest.


 


(ii)         The
Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Seller the applicable purchase price for the Membership Interest being purchased in
cash or by wire transfer at the closing.


 




    	44



    	 



    

  


(iii)        Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, it shall be a condition or requirement of any offer and the closing to obtain a release of
the Seller and the Seller’s Affiliates from any personal liability arising out of any and all Recourse Guaranties and Non-Recourse
Carveout Guaranties.


 


12.08     Default.


 


(a)          Events
of Default. The failure of a Member to perform any of the obligations set forth in Sections 12.06 or 12.07 with respect to
an offer of its Membership Interest or purchase of the other Member’s Membership Interest shall constitute an event of default
(“Event of Default”) on the part of the Member with respect to whom such failure occurs.


 


(b)          Remedies.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the non-defaulting Member may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies
provided in this Agreement or available at law or in equity, any one or more of the remedies provided for in Section 12.08 (c)
below.


 


(c)          Remedies
for Failure to Transfer Membership Interest.


 


(i)          Seller’s
Failure. In the event that the Seller fails to make conveyance of its Membership Interest pursuant to its obligations herein,
then the Buyer shall have the option: (A) to demand and receive specific performance of the Seller’s obligations to convey
its Membership Interest as provided for herein; (B) to recover damages on account of the Seller’s failure to make conveyance
(which rights shall be in addition to the right granted under subparagraph (A) above, if the Buyer so elects); or (C) to terminate
the obligations of the parties to proceed with the sale of the Membership Interest, whereupon the position of the parties shall
revert to the status quo ante as if no notice to purchase from either party to the other had been given under the provisions of
this Agreement.


 


(ii)         Buyer’s
Failure. In the event that the Buyer defaults in the closing of a purchase of a Membership Interest as herein provided, then
the Seller shall have the option to: (A) elect to purchase the Buyer’s Membership Interest on the terms and conditions
otherwise set forth herein, by notice to the Buyer of the Seller’s intention so to do, given within fifteen (15) days after
such default in which event the Seller shall become the Buyer and the Buyer shall become the Seller, and all the applicable terms,
conditions and provisions of this Agreement with respect to such sales shall govern, except that the closing thereof shall take
place thirty (30) days after such date of notice from the Seller (now the Buyer) to the Buyer (now the Seller) and except that
the purchase price shall be ten percent (10%) less than the price which the Seller (now the Buyer) would have had to pay had such
Buyer (now the Seller) originally elected to sell its Membership Interest; (B) terminate the Seller’s obligation to convey
its Membership Interest to the Buyer by notice to the Buyer, in which case the position of the parties shall revert to the status
quo ante as if no notice from either party to the other had been given under the provisions of this Agreement; or (C) sue Buyer
in the appropriate court for specific performance.

12.09     Catalyst
Put Right.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that the Catalyst Member desires to either sell the Project or refinance
the Loan, and in either such case the BR Member fails to provide its consent thereto, then at the Catalyst Member’s election,
the Catalyst Member shall have the right to require that the BR Member purchase its Membership Interest on the terms contained
herein, along with the purchase of the co-tenancy interest of the Brown Co-Tenants (the “Put Right”); provided, however,
this Section 12.09 may only be invoked following Project Completion.


 


(b)          The
Catalyst Member may exercise the Put Right by providing a written notice (the “Put Notice”) to the BR Member. The Put
Notice shall state that the Catalyst Member is requiring the BR Member to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Membership
Interest owned by the Catalyst Member along with the co-tenancy interest of the Brown Co-Tenants at a price to be derived from
the Appraised Value of the Project. The Put Notice shall specify the date of closing (the “Put Closing Date”), which
date shall be no earlier than the later of (i) the thirtieth (30th) day after the giving of the Put Notice and (ii) the tenth (10th)
day following the final determination of Appraised Value, but in any event not later than the ninetieth (90th) day after such notice.


 


(c)          As
used herein, the term “Appraised Value” means the fair market value for the Project, to be established through the
following appraisal process. Each Member shall select an MAI certified appraiser, licensed in the State of Georgia, to value the
Project. If the deviation between the two valuations is less than three percent (3%), then the average of the two appraisals shall
form the basis of valuation for the Project. In the event the two appraised valuations deviate by more than three percent (3%),
then the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser to appraise the Project. The average of the two closest appraisals shall
form the basis of valuation for the Project. Catalyst shall have the right in its sole discretion to rescind its exercise of the
Put Right if it is unsatisfied with the results of the appraisal process but only on the following conditions: (i) it agrees to
bear all actual out-of pocket costs incurred in connection with the appraisal process; (ii) it agrees to waive all further rights
to exercise the Put Right; and (iii) if the BR Member had previously exercised the Buy-Sell in accordance with Section 12.06
above, the BR Member shall have the right to return to the extant Buy-Sell.


 


(d)          The
aggregate purchase price for the Catalyst Member’s Membership Interest pursuant to this Section 12.09 (the “Put Price”)
shall be that amount which would be distributed to the Catalyst Member pursuant to Section 9.01 above (after giving effect to all
applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all Reserves then existing and without establishing any additional
Reserves) if the Project were sold by the Borrower on the Put Closing Date for a gross sales price equal to the Appraised Value
and all liabilities and obligations of the Borrower were satisfied from the proceeds from such sales price and any remaining proceeds
were distributed to the Co-Tenants by the Borrower, and then the proceeds received by the Company were distributed to the Members
in accordance with Section 9.01. In addition, the purchase price shall include that amount that would be distributed to the Brown
Co-Tenants directly pursuant to the TIC Agreement in connection with the sale of the Project, with any such portion of the price
allocable to the Brown Co-Tenants paid directly thereto in exchange for full and complete relinquishment of any and all of their
rights in and to the Trust or the Property. No Member shall be entitled to any sales fee or commission if the Catalyst Member exercises
the Put Right set forth in this Section 12.09.


 




    	46



    	 



    

  


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, at any time prior to the commencement of vertical construction of the Project, in the
event that: (i) the Catalyst Member desires to commence vertical construction of the Project but is prohibited from doing so as
a result of the exercise by the BR Member of its rights pursuant to Section 7.07 above; and (ii) the Catalyst Member exercises
the Put Right as a result of its desire to market and sell the Project because of the BR Member’s unwillingness to proceed
with vertical construction, then the amount of the Put Price shall be an amount equal to the greater of: (x) the amount determined
pursuant to Section 12.09(d) above and (y) the sum of the (i) amount of the Catalyst Member’s Initial Capital Contributions
and (ii) the amounts contributed to the Borrower by the Brown Co-Tenants pursuant to the TIC Agreement.


 


(f)          The
closing of a purchase of Membership Interest(s) pursuant to this Section 12.09 shall be held on the Put Closing Date, subject to
the terms and conditions specified herein.


 


(g)          As
of the Put Closing Date, the BR Member shall assume all obligations of the Catalyst Member with respect to the Membership Interest
so transferred, including any liability of the Seller or any Affiliate thereof with respect to any Company liabilities. Upon such
transfer, the Catalyst Member’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such transferred
Membership Interest, except as to indemnity rights of such Member under this Agreement attributable to acts or events occurring
prior to the effective date of such transfer. In addition, the BR Member shall cause the TIC Agreement to be terminated in its
entirety following the purchase of the co-tenancy interest of the Brown Co-Tenants.


 


(h)          The
provisions of Sections 12.07 (including without limitation Section 12.07(f)(iii)) and 12.08 above shall apply to this Section 12.09,
to the extent applicable.


 


12.10     Specific
Performance. It is expressly agreed that the remedy at law for breach of any of the obligations set forth in this Article 12
is inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason
of the failure of a party to comply fully with each of said obligations, and (ii) the uniqueness of each Member’s business
and assets and the relationship of the Members. Accordingly, each of the aforesaid obligations and restrictions shall be, and is
hereby expressly made, enforceable by specific performance.

ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL MEMBERSHIP
INTERESTS


 


Except as otherwise
provided for herein, any Person approved by all of the Members may become a Member in the Company by the issuance by the Company
of Membership Interests for such consideration as all of the Members shall determine. No new Members shall be entitled to any retroactive
allocation of losses, income or expense deductions incurred by the Company. The Managers may, upon the approval of all the existing
Members, at the time a Member is admitted, close the Company books (as though the Company’s tax year had ended) or make pro
rata allocations of loss, income and expense deductions to a new Member for that portion of the Company’s tax year in which
a Member was admitted in accordance with the provisions of Section 706(d) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated
thereunder.

DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION


 


14.01     Dissolution.


 


(a)          The
Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the following events:


 


i.            by
the unanimous written agreement of all Members; or


 


ii.         by
a decree of judicial dissolution under the Act.


 


To the maximum extent
permitted under the Act, the Company shall not dissolve upon an event of dissociation with respect to the last remaining Member,
but instead the legal successor to such Member shall automatically become a Member of the Company with all rights and obligations
appurtenant thereto.


 


(b)          If
a Member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him to be incompetent to manage his person or
his property, the Member’s executor, administrator, guardian, conservator, or other legal representative may exercise all
of the Member’s rights for the purpose of settling his estate or administering his property, but such person shall be a holder
of an Economic Interest and shall not have the rights of a Member. Further, such Person shall be subject to the provisions of Article
12.


 


14.02     Effect
of Dissolution. Upon dissolution, the Company shall cease to carry on its business, except as permitted by Section 18-803 of
the Act.


 


14.03     Winding
Up, Liquidation and Distribution of Assets.


 


(a)          Upon
dissolution, an accounting shall be made by the Company’s independent accountants of the accounts of the Company and of the
Company’s assets, liabilities and operations, from the date of the last previous accounting until the date of dissolution.
The Managers or if none, the Person or Persons selected by the Members (the “Liquidators”) shall immediately proceed
to wind up the affairs of the Company.


 


(b)          If
the Company is dissolved and its affairs are to be wound up, the Liquidators shall:


 


i.            Sell
or otherwise liquidate all of the Company’s assets as promptly as practicable;


 




    	48



    	 



    

  


ii.         Allocate
any profit or loss resulting from such sales to the Members’ and Economic Interest Owners’ in accordance with Article
10 hereof as if the Company had distributed all distributable Capital Proceeds in accordance with Article 9 hereof;


 


iii.         Discharge
all liabilities of the Company, including liabilities to Members and Economic Interest Owners who are creditors, to the extent
otherwise permitted by law, other than liabilities to Members and Economic Interest Owners for distributions, and establish such
Reserves as may be reasonably necessary to provide for contingent liabilities of the Company; and


 


iv.         Distribute
the remaining proceeds to the Members in accordance with Section 9.01.


 


(c)          In
the final Fiscal Year of the Company, before making the final distributions provided for in Section 14.03(b)(iv), Profits and Losses
shall be credited or charged to Capital Accounts of the Members (which Capital Accounts shall be first adjusted to take into account
all distributions other than liquidating distributions made during the Fiscal Year) in the manner provided in Article 10. The allocations
and distributions provided for in this Agreement are intended to result in the Capital Account of each Member immediately prior
to the liquidation distributions of the Company’s assets pursuant to Section 14.03(b)(iv) being equal to the amount distributable
to such Member pursuant to Section 14.03(b)(iv). The Managers are authorized to make appropriate adjustments in the allocation
of Profits and Losses and, if necessary, items of gross income and gross deductions of the Company, for the year of liquidation
of the Company (or, if earlier, the year in which all or substantially all of the Company’s assets are sold, transferred
or disposed of) as necessary to cause the amount of each Member’s Capital Account immediately prior to the distribution of
the Company’s assets pursuant to Section 14.03(b)(iv) to equal the amount distributable to such Member pursuant to Section
14.03(b)(iv). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 14.03(c) shall affect the amounts distributable to the Members
under Section 14.03(b)(iv).


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Operating Agreement, upon a liquidation within the meaning of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of
the Treasury Regulations, if any Member has a deficit Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions,
allocations and other Capital Account adjustments for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs),
such Member shall have no obligation to make any Capital Contribution, and the negative balance of such Member’s Capital
Account shall not be considered a debt owed by such Member to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever.


 


(e)          Upon
completion of the winding up, liquidation and distribution of the assets, the Company shall be deemed terminated.


 


(f)          The
Liquidators shall comply with any applicable requirements of applicable law pertaining to the winding up of the affairs of the
Company and the final distribution of its assets.


 




    	49



    	 



    

  


14.04     Certificate
of Cancellation. When all debts, liabilities and obligations have been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been
made therefor and all of the remaining property and assets have been distributed to the Members, a Certificate of Cancellation
may be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware in accordance with Section 18-203 of the Act.


 


14.05     Return
of Contribution Nonrecourse to Other Members. Except as provided by law or as expressly provided in this Operating Agreement,
upon dissolution, each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution. If the
Company property remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return
the cash contribution of one or more Members, such Member or Members shall have no recourse against any other Member.

15.01     Indemnification
by Company. The Managers, the Members or their respective members, managers, agents, employees and representatives (each, an
“Indemnitee”) shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any losses, judgments,
liabilities, expenses and amounts paid in settlement of any claims sustained by it or any of them in connection with the Company
(each, a “Claim”), provided that (i) such course of conduct was, in good faith, intended to be in, and not opposed
to, the best interests of the Company and such liability or loss was not the result of willful misconduct, or a material breach
of this Agreement or gross negligence on the part of such Indemnitee, and (ii) any such indemnification will only be recoverable
from the assets of the Company and the Members shall not have any liability on account thereof except any obligations to return
distributions received from the Company that are required to be returned to the Company in respect of such indemnification obligations
under applicable law. No Member shall be authorized to make a call for capital to satisfy the Company’s indemnification obligations
under this Section 15.01.

16.21      Investment
Representations and Indemnity Agreement. In addition to the restrictions on transfer set forth above, each Member understands
that Members must bear the economic risk of this investment for an indefinite period of time because the Membership Interests are
not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) or the securities laws of any state or
other jurisdiction. Each Member has been advised that there is no public market for the Membership Interests and that the Membership
Interests are not being registered under the 1933 Act upon the basis that the transactions involving its sale are exempt from such
registration requirements and that reliance by the Company on such exemption is predicated in part on the Member’s representations
set forth in this Agreement. Each Member acknowledges that no representations of any kind concerning the Property or the future
intent or ability to offer or sell the Membership Interest in a public offering or otherwise have been made to the Member by the
Company or any other Person or entity. Each Member understands that the Company makes no covenant, representation or warranty with
respect to the registration of securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, or its dissemination to the public
of any current financial or other information concerning the Company. Accordingly, the Members acknowledge that there is no assurance
that there will ever by any public market for the Membership Interests, and that the Members may not be able to publicly offer
or sell any thereof. Furthermore, each Member (and his/her/its assignees and transferees) agrees to indemnify the other Members,
the Managers, the Company and any director, officer, employee, affiliate or legal counsel of such parties, from any and all losses,
damage, liability, claims and expenses incurred, suffered or sustained by any of them in any manner because of the falsity of any
representation contained in this Section including, without limitation, liability, for violation of the Securities Laws of the
United States or of any state which violation would not have occurred had such representation been true.


 




    	53



    	 



    

  


16.22      No
Partnership Interest for Non-Tax Purposes. The Members have formed the Company under the Act and expressly disavow any intention
to form a partnership under Delaware’s Uniform Partnership Act, Delaware’s Uniform Limited Partnership Act, or the
Partnership Act or laws of any other state. The Members do not intend to be partners one to another or partners as to any third
party. To the extent any Member, by word or action, represents to another person that any other Member is a partner or that the
Company is a partnership, the Member making such wrongful representations shall be liable to any other Member who incurs personal
liability by reason of such wrongful representation.


 


16.23      Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, along with the Cost-Sharing Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the
TIC Agreement, contains the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, oral or
written, except for the Cost-Sharing Agreement, Trust Agreement and TIC Agreement, which shall survive in accordance with its terms.
