 2.2 Individual Limitations. 

(a) No more than two hundred thousand (200,000) Shares may be made subject to Options or SARs to a single individual in a single
calendar year, subject to adjustment as provided herein, and no more than two hundred thousand (200,000) Shares may be made subject to stock-based awards other than Options or SARs (including Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units or Other

available for Awards under the Plan.

that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or share exchange, or other
similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Shares the Administrator shall make such equitable changes or adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants under the Plan to any or all of
(i) the number and kind of Shares or other property (including cash) that may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards, (ii) the number and kind of Shares or other property (including cash) issued or issuable in respect of
outstanding Awards, (iii) the exercise price, grant price, or purchase price relating to any Award; provided, that, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, such adjustment shall be made in accordance with Section 424(h) of the

adjustment pursuant to Section 2.4). The Director Restricted Stock shall fully vest if the Non-Employee Director completes the term or partial term for which he or she was elected and in which the Shares of Director Restricted Stock were
awarded. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of Shares of Director Restricted Stock to be issued
pursuant to this Article VII shall be reduced or eliminated to the 

  
 12 









 
extent that the issuance of such Shares of Director Restricted Stock would otherwise (i) enable the Independent Directors as a group to hold more than 10% of the outstanding Shares if such
Shares of Director Restricted Stock were fully vested; (ii) result in the Company being “closely-held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code; (iii) cause the Company to own, directly or constructively, 10% or more
of the ownership interests in a tenant of the property of the Company (or of the property of one or more partnerships in which the Company is a partner), within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code; (iv) result in a violation of
any of the stock ownership and transfer restrictions imposed under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended; or (v) cause, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, the Company to fail to qualify (or create, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, a risk that the Company would no longer qualify) as a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code. 
 (c) Except as provided otherwise in this Plan, the Director Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Restricted Stock.

 8.1 Restricted Stock Units. The Administrator is
authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Individuals, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

8.4 Forfeiture. Upon Termination of Service during the applicable deferral period or portion thereof to which forfeiture conditions
apply, or upon failure to satisfy any other conditions precedent to the delivery of Shares or cash to which such Restricted Stock Units relate, all Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited; provided, that the Administrator may provide, by
rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock Units will be waived in whole or in part in the event of termination resulting from
specified causes, and the Administrator may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. 

8.5 Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents shall not be granted unless and until the Common Stock is listed on a national securities
exchange. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator at the date of grant, any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit shall be either (A) paid with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit at the
dividend payment date in cash or in Shares of unrestricted Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, or (B) deferred with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit and the amount or value thereof automatically
deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units, 

  
 13 









 
other Awards or other investment vehicles, as the Administrator shall determine or permit the Participant to elect. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether any Dividend Equivalents
shall be paid at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant (subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code). 
 ARTICLE IX 
 OTHER AWARDS

the Company and which shall contain such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine. Awards granted pursuant to this Article IX may be granted with value and payment contingent upon the attainment of one or more performance goals. The
Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards at the date of grant or thereafter.

 ARTICLE XI 
 ADMINISTRATION 
 11.1 Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the
Board or, if the Board so delegates its authority, by the Compensation Committee. If the Board administers the Plan, all references herein to the “Administrator” shall be references to the Board. If the Compensation Committee is appointed
to administer the Plan, all references herein to the “Administrator” shall be references to the Compensation Committee. The Administrator shall have the authority in its absolute discretion, subject to and not inconsistent with the express
provisions of the Plan, to administer the Plan and to exercise all the powers and authorities either specifically granted to it under the Plan or necessary or advisable in the administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, the authority
to grant Awards; to determine the Eligible Individuals to whom and the time or times at which Awards shall be granted; to determine the type and number of Awards to be granted, the number of Shares to which an Award may relate and the terms,
conditions, restrictions and performance criteria relating to any Award; to accelerate the vesting of any Award at any time; and to determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled, cancelled, forfeited,
exchanged, or surrendered; to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the performance goals (if any) included in, Awards; to construe and interpret the Plan and any Award; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating
to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the Award Agreements (which need not be identical for each Participant); and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Board, the Compensation Committee nor their respective delegates shall have the authority to
reprice (or cancel and regrant) any Option or, if applicable, other Award at a lower exercise, grant or purchase price without first obtaining the approval of the Company’s stockholders. 

In addition, an Award shall not be granted, become vested, be exercised or paid if, in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Administrator, the grant, vesting, exercise or payment of such Award could result in any of the following: 
 (a) the
Participant’s or any other person’s ownership of Shares being in violation of any of the stock ownership and transfer restrictions imposed under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended; 

(b) the Shares shall be deemed not to be transferable within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code; 

(c) income to the Company or any other result that could impair the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust within the
meaning of the Code. 
 11.2 Duties and Powers of Administrator. The Administrator may appoint a chairperson and a secretary and
may make such rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it shall deem advisable, and shall keep minutes of its meetings. All determinations of the Administrator shall be made by a majority of its members either present in person or
participating by conference telephone at a meeting or by written consent. The Administrator 

  
 15 









 
may delegate to one or more of its members or to one or more agents such administrative duties as it may deem advisable, and the Administrator or any person to whom it has delegated duties as
aforesaid may employ one or more persons to render advice with respect to any responsibility the Administrator or such person may have under the Plan. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding
on all persons, including but not limited to the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company or any Participant (or any person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Participant) and any stockholder. 

11.3 Professional Assistance; Good Faith Actions. The Administrator may employ attorneys, consultants, accountants, appraisers, brokers,
or other persons. The Administrator, the Company and the Company’s officers shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any such persons. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the
Administrator in good faith shall be final and binding upon all Participants, the Company, stockholders and all other interested persons. No members of the Administrator shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made
in good faith with respect to the Plan and all members of the Administrator and shall be fully protected by the Company in respect of any such action, determination or interpretation. 

11.4 Delegation of Authority to Grant Awards. The Administrator may, but need not, delegate from time to time to a committee consisting
of one or more of the Company’s officers authority to grant Awards under the Plan to Eligible Individuals; provided, however, that each such Eligible Individual must be an individual other than an “officer,”
“director” or “beneficial owner of more than ten per cent of any class of any equity security” of the Company within the meaning of each such term as it is used under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Any delegation
hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Administrator specifies at the time of such delegation of authority and may be rescinded at any time by the Administrator. At all times, any subcommittee appointed under this
Section 11.4 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Administrator. 
 ARTICLE XII 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 12.1 Rights as Stockholders. Except as determined by the Administrator and set forth in an Award Agreement, the holders of Awards shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, stockholders of
the Company in respect of any Shares subject to an Award unless and until such Shares have been issued by the Company to such holders. 
 12.2 Not Transferable. Awards granted under the Plan may not be sold, pledged, assigned, or transferred in any manner other than by will or applicable laws of descent and distribution. No Award holder
shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or his or her successors-in-interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such
disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no
effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by the preceding sentence. 

  
 16 









 During the lifetime of the Participant, only he or she may exercise an Option or SAR (or any
portion thereof) granted to him or her under the Plan. After the death of the Participant, any exercisable portion of the Option or SAR may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement,
be exercised by his or her personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution. 

12.3 No Right to Employment or Other Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award Agreement hereunder shall (i) confer
upon any Participant any right to (a) continue in the employ of his or her Employer or to provide services to the Company, or (b) receive any severance pay from the Company or his or her Employer, or (ii) interfere with or restrict in
any way the rights of the Company or his or her Employer, which are hereby expressly reserved, to terminate the services of any Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause. 

12.4 Term of Plan. Unless earlier terminated by the Board, the Plan shall automatically expire and terminate on the tenth anniversary of
the date on which it was adopted by the Company. The expiration or other termination of the Plan shall have no adverse affect on any Awards that are outstanding on the date of such expiration or other termination. 

12.5 Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan. The Plan may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or
terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board; provided, however, that unless otherwise determined by the Board, an amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to continue to comply with applicable
law, regulation or stock exchange requirement shall not be effective unless approved by the requisite vote of stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the holder
of an Award, alter or impair any rights or obligations under such Award theretofore granted or awarded unless the Award Agreement itself otherwise expressly so provides, and no amendment shall be made that could jeopardize the status of the Company
as a real estate investment trust under the Code. No Awards may be granted or awarded during any period of suspension or after termination of the Plan. 
 12.6 Change in Control and Other Corporate Events. 
 (a) Subject to
Section 12.6(b), in the event of any Change in Control or other transaction or event described in Section 2.4 or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Affiliate of the Company, or the financial
statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, the Administrator is hereby authorized to any action with respect to Awards at such time and on such terms and conditions as the
Administrator determines in its absolute direction to be desirable, which action(s) may include, without limitation: 
 (i) a
determination that the Company shall pay to the holder of any Award, in consideration for the cancellation of such Award, an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the vesting or exercise of such Award had such Award
been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested, as applicable, or the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; 

  
 17 









 (ii) a determination that Awards cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such
event; 
 (iii) a determination that all or some Awards shall become immediately vested and/or exercisable either prior to or as
of such event, or that for a specified period of time prior to transaction or event, an Option or SAR shall be exercisable as to all Shares covered thereby; 
 (iv) a determination that upon such event, such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar awards covering the
stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of Shares or other property and prices which are the subject of such Award; or 

(v) a determination to make adjustments to Awards consistent with Section 2.4. 

(b) With respect to Awards, no adjustment or action described in this Section 12.6 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be
authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 unless the Administrator determines that the Award is
not to comply with such exemptive conditions. The number of Shares subject to any Option shall always be rounded to the next whole number. 
 12.7 Approval of Plan by Stockholders. This Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company’s stockholders following the Board’s initial adoption of the Plan. Awards may be granted prior
to such stockholder approval, provided, that no Award shall become vested or exercisable prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders and, provided further, that, if such approval has not been obtained within 12
months following the date of adoption of the Plan, all Awards previously granted under the Plan shall thereupon be cancelled and shall automatically become null and void. 
 12.8 Tax Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to require of each Participant satisfaction of the Company’s withholding obligations under federal, state or local tax law with respect to the
issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award, and the Company may defer such issuance, vesting, exercise or payment unless indemnified to its satisfaction. The Administrator shall provide in the applicable Award Agreement the acceptable
methods of satisfying such withholding obligations, which may include: (i) deducting such amounts from other compensation otherwise payable to the Participant; (ii) having Shares otherwise issuable hereunder withheld, the Fair Market Value
of which is sufficient to satisfy the Participant’s minimum estimated tax obligations associated with the transaction; (iii) tendering back to the Company previously acquired Shares or (iv) a combination of the foregoing. 

  
 18 









 12.9 Forfeiture Provisions. Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms and
conditions applicable to Awards granted under the Plan, the Administrator shall have the right to provide, in the terms of an Award Agreement, or by separate written instrument, that (i) any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or
constructively received by an Participant upon the receipt or exercise of the Option, or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying such Award, must be paid to the Company, and (ii) the Award shall terminate and any outstanding portion
of such Award (whether or not vested) shall be forfeited, if (a) a Termination of Service occurs prior to a specified date, or within a specified time period following receipt or exercise of the Award, or (b) the Participant, at any time,
or during a specified time period, engages in any activity in competition with his or her Employer or the Company, or which is inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of his or her Employer or the Company, as may be further defined from time
to time by the Administrator. 
 12.10 Limitations Applicable to Section 16. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act
(including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive
rule. 
 12.11 Effect of Plan Upon Other Equity and Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other
equity- or cash-based compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company from time to time. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company (i) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for
employees of the Company, the Manager or the Advisor, or (ii) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose including, but not by way of limitation, the grant
or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise of the business, stock or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm or association. 

12.12 Section 83(b) Election Prohibited. No Participant may make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to
any Award granted under the Plan without the Company’s consent. 
 12.13 Compliance with Laws. This Plan, the granting and
vesting of Awards under the Plan, the issuance and delivery of Shares, and the payment of money or other consideration allowable under the Plan or under Awards granted hereunder are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws,
rules and regulations (including, but not limited to, state and federal securities laws and federal margin requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Board, the
Compensation Committee or the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company,
provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Board, the Compensation Committee or the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements. 

  
 19 









 To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to
conform to such laws, rules and regulations. 
 12.14 Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to
serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of the Plan. 
 12.15 Governing Law. This Plan and any agreements hereunder
shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Colorado without regard to conflicts of laws provisions thereof. 
 12.16 Code Section 409A. 
 (a) The Award Agreement for any Award that the
Administrator reasonably determines to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” under Section 409A of the Code (a “Section 409A Plan”), and the provisions of the Plan applicable to that Award, shall be
construed in a manner consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Administrator, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Participant, may amend any Award Agreement (and the provisions of the
Plan applicable thereto) if and to the extent that the Administrator determines that such amendment is necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

(b) If any Award constitutes a Section 409A Plan, then the Award shall be subject to the following additional requirements, if and
to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code: 
 (i) Payments under the Section 409A Plan may not be
made earlier than the first to occur of (u) the Participant’s “separation from service”, (v) the date the Participant becomes “disabled”, (w) the Participant’s death, (x) a “specified time (or
pursuant to a fixed schedule)” specified in the Award Agreement at the date of the deferral of such compensation, (y) a “change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of
the assets” of the Company, or (z) the occurrence of an “unforeseeble emergency”; 
 (ii) The time or
schedule for any payment of the deferred compensation may not be accelerated, except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations or other applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service; 

(iii) Any elections with respect to the deferral of such compensation or the time and form of distribution of such deferred compensation
shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A(a)(4) of the Code; and 
 (iv) In the case of any Participant who is
“specified employee”, a distribution on account of a “separation from service” may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (or, if earlier, the
date of the Participant’s death). 

  
 20 









 For purposes of the foregoing, the terms in quotations shall have the same meanings as those terms have for
purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and the limitations set forth herein shall be applied in such manner (and only to the extent) as shall be necessary to comply with any requirements of Section 409A of the Code that are applicable to
the Award. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to any Participant or Beneficiary
that any Awards made pursuant to this Plan are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Participant or any Beneficiary
for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Participant or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Plan, or any Award Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with
respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.
