**Item 1.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

*First Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Alpine Income Property OP, LP*

In connection with the Offering (as defined below) by Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (the "Company") of the Company's 8.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Alpine Income Property OP, LP (the "Operating Partnership") was amended to provide for the issuance of up to 2,300,000 of the Operating Partnership's 8.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units (liquidation preference $25.00 per unit) (the "Series A Preferred Units"). Such amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein. The Company intends to contribute the net proceeds from the sale of the Series A Preferred Stock to the Operating Partnership in exchange for the same number of Series A Preferred Units. The Series A Preferred Units have economic terms that mirror the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. The issuance of the Series A Preferred Units is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

*Partial Management Fee Waiver*

Pursuant to the terms of the management agreement among the Company, the Operating Partnership and Alpine Income Property Manager, LLC (the "Manager"), dated November 26, 2019 and amended on July 18, 2024 (the "Management Agreement"), the Manager manages, operates, and administers the Company's day-to-day operations, business and affairs, subject to the direction and supervision of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") and in accordance with the investment guidelines approved and monitored by the Board. The Company pays the Manager a base management fee (the "Base Management Fee") equal to 1.50% per annum (0.375% per fiscal quarter) of the Company's "total equity" (as defined in the Management Agreement), calculated and payable in cash, quarterly in arrears.

In connection with the Offering, on November 5, 2025, the Manager executed a waiver (the "Waiver Letter"), which provides that, subject to the completion of the Offering, the Manager will waive a portion of the Base Management Fee attributable to the inclusion of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock in Total Equity (the "Incremental Equity Base"), such that the Base Management Fee rate on the Incremental Equity Base will equal 0.75% per annum (0.1875% per fiscal quarter), instead of 1.50% per annum (0.375% per fiscal quarter) as provided in the Management Agreement.

A copy of the Waiver Letter is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On November 10, 2025, the Company filed Articles Supplementary (the "Articles Supplementary") to the Company's charter with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of the State of Maryland (the "SDAT"), which classified and designated 2,300,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. A summary of the material terms of the Series A Preferred Stock is set forth under the caption "Description of the Series A Preferred Stock" in the Company's prospectus supplement, dated November 5, 2025, which forms a part of the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-274724), and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

The Series A Preferred Stock will rank senior to all classes or series of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), with respect to distribution rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. Upon issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the ability of the Company to declare dividends with respect to, or redeem, purchase or acquire, or make a liquidation payment on, any other shares of capital stock ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, will be subject to certain restrictions in the event that the Company does not declare dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock during any dividend period. When, as, and if authorized by the Company's board of directors and declared by the Company, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be payable quarterly in arrears on or about March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on December 31, 2025. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are cumulative.

The Series A Preferred Stock will generally not be redeemable by the Company before November 12, 2030, except in limited circumstances to preserve the Company's status as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") and except as described below upon the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the Articles Supplementary). On and after November 12, 2030, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not authorized or declared) up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity date and is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption provisions and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed or otherwise repurchased by the Company or converted in connection with a change of control by holders of the Series A Preferred Stock as described below.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part within 120 days after the first date on which such change of control occurred, by paying $25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, upon the occurrence of a change of control, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right (unless the Company has provided notice of its election to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock) to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder into a number of shares of Common Stock determined by a formula, on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Articles Supplementary.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights, except for limited voting rights, including if the Company fails to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for six or more quarterly periods (whether or not consecutive).

The shares of the Series A Preferred Stock are subject to certain restrictions on ownership and transfer designed to preserve the Company's qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full terms of the Series A Preferred Stock as set forth in the Articles Supplementary. A copy of the Articles Supplementary is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2025, and the information in the Articles Supplementary is incorporated into this Item 3.03 by reference.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On November 10, 2025, the Company filed the Articles Supplementary with the SDAT designating the powers, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Articles Supplementary were effective upon filing. The information about the Articles Supplementary under Item 3.03 of this report, including the summary description of the powers, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock, is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 5, 2025, the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, as the representatives of the underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (collectively, the "Underwriters") to issue and sell (the "Offering") 2,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. In addition, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 300,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Offering is expected to close on November 12, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The Underwriting Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the description of the material terms of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

A copy of the opinion of Venable LLP, Maryland counsel to the Company, relating to the legality of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Series A Stock to be purchased from the Company are called the "**Firm Securities**." In addition, the Company has granted to the Underwriters, upon the terms and conditions stated herein, an option to purchase up to an additional 300,000 shares of Series A Stock (the "**Additional Securities**") to cover over-allotments by the Underwriters, if any. The Firm Securities and the Additional Securities are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the "**Securities**." The terms of the Securities will be set forth in the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the Company, including articles supplementary (the "**Articles Supplementary**") to be filed by the Company with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (the "**SDAT**") on or prior to the Closing Date (as defined herein). Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated are acting as the representatives of the several Underwriters and in such capacity are referred to in this Agreement as the "**Representative**." The term Representative shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires.

Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership wishes to confirm as follows its respective agreement with the several Underwriters, on whose behalf you are acting as the Representative, in connection with the several purchases of the Securities from the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**Commission**") in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "**Securities Act**"), a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-274724), including a related base prospectus (the "**Base Prospectus**"), relating to certain securities, including the Securities, to be issued from time to time by the Company.

Any preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus that describes the Securities and the offering thereof and is used prior to the filing of a Prospectus (as defined below), including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, is referred to in this Agreement, together with the Base Prospectus, as a "**Preliminary Prospectus**." The term "**Prospectus**" shall mean the prospectus supplement relating to the Securities, together with the Base Prospectus, that is first filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act after the date and time that this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. For purposes of this Agreement, all references in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, a Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing, shall include any copy thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System ("**EDGAR**"). As used in this Agreement:

"<u>Applicable Time</u>" means 3:50 p.m. (Eastern time) November 5, 2025 or such other time as agreed by the Company and the Underwriters.

"<u>Statutory Prospectus</u>" as of any time means the prospectus relating to the Securities that is included in the Registration Statement immediately prior to that time, including any document incorporated by reference therein.

"<u>Issuer Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any "issuer free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act, relating to the Securities that (i) is required to be filed with the Commission by the Company, (ii) is a "road show that is a written communication" within the meaning of Rule 433(d)(8)(i) under the Securities Act whether or not required to be filed with the Commission or (iii) is exempt from filing pursuant to Rule 433(d)(5)(i) under the Securities Act because it contains a description of the Securities or of the offering that does not reflect the final terms, in each case in the form filed or required to be filed with the Commission or, if not required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company's records pursuant to Rule 433(g) under the Securities Act.

"<u>Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to prospective investors (other than a Bona Fide Electronic Road Show (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act)), as evidenced by its being specified in <u>Schedule II</u> hereto.

"<u>Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not an Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Agreements to Sell and Purchase</u>. Upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell an aggregate of 2,000,000 Firm Securities to the Underwriters. Upon the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager herein contained and subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company at a purchase price of $24.2125 per share of Series A Stock (the "**Purchase Price per Share**") the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in <u>Schedule I</u> hereto.

The Company hereby also agrees to sell to the Underwriters, and, upon the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager herein contained and subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters shall have the right for 30 days from the date of this Agreement to purchase from the Company up to 300,000 Additional Securities at the Purchase Price per Share, less an amount per share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Securities but not payable on the Additional Securities. The Additional Securities may be purchased solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering of the Firm Securities. If any Additional Securities are to be purchased, each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase the number of Additional Securities (subject to such adjustments as the Representative may determine to avoid fractional shares) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Additional Securities to be purchased by the Underwriter as the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto bears to the total number of Firm Securities. The option to purchase Additional Securities may be exercised at any time within 30 days after the date of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Terms of Public Offering</u>. The Company has been advised by the Representative that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Securities as soon after this Agreement is entered into as in the judgment of the Representative is advisable and initially to offer the Securities upon the terms set forth in the General Disclosure Package (as defined below). The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell Securities to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter, plus any additional number of Securities which such Underwriter may become obligated to purchase pursuant to the provisions of Section 13 hereof, subject, in each case, to such adjustments among the Underwriters as the Representative in its sole discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional securities.

Not later than 12:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on the second business day following the date the Securities are released by the Underwriters for sale to the public, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered copies of the Prospectus in such quantities and at such places as the Underwriters shall request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Delivery of the Securities and Payment Therefor</u>. Delivery to the Underwriters of the Firm Securities and payment therefor shall be made at the offices of Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, New York at 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time, on November 12, 2025, or such other time and date not later than 1:30 p.m., New York, New York time, on the second business day thereafter as the Representative shall designate by notice to the Company (the time and date of such closing are called the "**Closing Date**"). The place of closing for the Firm Securities and the Closing Date may be varied by agreement between the Representative and the Company. The Company hereby acknowledges that circumstances under which the Representative may provide notice to postpone the Closing Date as originally scheduled include any determination by the Company or the Representative to recirculate to the public copies of an amended or supplemented Prospectus or a delay as contemplated by the provisions of Section 13 hereof.

Delivery to the Underwriters of and payment for any Additional Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters shall be made at the offices of Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, New York, at 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time, on such date or dates (the "**Additional Closing Date**") (which may be the same as the Closing Date, but shall in no event be earlier than the Closing Date nor earlier than two nor later than ten business days after the giving of the notice hereinafter referred to) as shall be specified in a written notice, from the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters to the Company, of the Underwriters' determination to purchase a number, specified in such notice, of Additional Securities. Such notice may be given at any time within 30 days after the date of this Agreement and must set forth (i) the aggregate number of Additional Securities as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the names and denominations in which the Additional Securities are to be registered. The place of closing for the Additional Securities and the Additional Closing Date may be varied by agreement between the Representative and the Company.

Delivery of the Firm Securities and any Additional Securities to be purchased hereunder shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified in writing, not later than the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, by the Company. Payment for the Securities sold by the Company hereunder shall be delivered by the Representative to the Company.

It is understood that the Representative has been authorized, for its own account and for the accounts of the several Underwriters, to accept delivery of and receipt for, and make payment of the Purchase Price per Share for the Firm Securities and the Additional Securities, if any, that the Underwriters have agreed to purchase. Each of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated or Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, individually and not as the representative of the Underwriters, may, but shall not be obligated to, make payment for any Securities to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by the Representative by the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Covenants and Agreements of the Company and the Operating Partnership</u>. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership covenants and agrees with the several Underwriters as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company will advise the Representative promptly and, if requested by the Representative, will confirm such advice in writing (i) the time and date of any filing of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus and the time and date that any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective, (ii) when any supplement to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been filed, (iii) of the receipt of any comments of the Commission relating to the Registration Statement, or any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or for additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the suspension of qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purposes and (v) within the period beginning at the execution and delivery of this Agreement and thereafter from time to time for such period as in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with the sales by any Underwriter or a dealer, of any change in the condition (financial or otherwise), business, prospects, properties, assets, net worth or results of operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or of any event that comes to the attention of the Company and the Operating Partnership that makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any additions thereto or changes therein in order to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading in any material respect, or of the necessity to amend or supplement the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) to comply with the Securities Act or any other applicable law. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time. The Company will provide the Underwriters with copies of the form of Prospectus, in such number as the Underwriters may reasonably request, and file with the Commission such Prospectus in accordance with the provisions of Rule 430B under the Securities Act and in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) under the Securities Act and any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 433 under the Securities Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company will furnish to the Representative upon request, without charge, a photocopy of the signed original of the Registration Statement as originally filed with the Commission and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), and will also furnish to the Representative, without charge, such number of conformed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto as the Representative may reasonably request.

The Company consents to the use of the Prospectus and the General Disclosure Package (and of any amendment or supplement thereto) in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act and with the securities or Blue Sky laws of the jurisdictions in which the Securities are offered by the several Underwriters and by all dealers to whom Securities may be sold, both in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and for such period of time thereafter as the Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer. If at any time prior to the completion of the distribution of the Securities pursuant to the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement, any event shall occur that in the judgment of the Company or in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters is required to be set forth in the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) or should be set forth therein in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary to supplement or amend the Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or any other law, the Company will forthwith prepare and, subject to Section 5(a) hereof, file with the Commission and use its best efforts to cause to become effective as promptly as possible an appropriate supplement or amendment thereto, and will furnish to each Underwriter who has previously requested the Prospectus, without charge, a reasonable number of copies thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company will cooperate with the Representative and counsel for the Underwriters to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions (domestic or foreign) as the Representative may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect for a period of not less than one year from the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If this Agreement shall terminate or shall be terminated after execution pursuant to Section 11 hereof or clause (i) or clause (iii) of Section 14 hereof, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including travel expenses and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters, but excluding wages and salaries paid by the Underwriters) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Company and the Operating Partnership will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Company will comply with all provisions of any undertakings contained in the Registration Statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Company will use its best efforts to continue to qualify for taxation as a real estate investment trust ("**REIT**") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "**Code**"), for its taxable year ending December 31, 2025 and continue to qualify as a REIT for all subsequent taxable years, unless the Company's Board of Directors determines in good faith that it is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to be so qualified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representative, and each Underwriter represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an "issuer free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act, or that would otherwise constitute a "free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, required to be filed with the Commission; provided that the prior consent of the Representative and the Company shall be deemed to have been given in respect of any "issuer free writing prospectus" included in <u>Schedule II</u> attached hereto. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Representative is hereinafter referred to as a "**Permitted Free Writing Prospectus**." The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an "issuer free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping. For the purposes of clarity, nothing in this Section 5(l) shall restrict the Company from making any filings required under the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) For so long as any of the Securities are outstanding, the Company will reserve a sufficient number of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "**Common Stock**"), to satisfy the conversion of such outstanding Securities into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles Supplementary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company will use its best efforts to: (i) file the Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, which Articles Supplementary will comply with all applicable requirements of the Maryland General Corporation Law and will be in full force and effect at the Closing Date, and (ii) register the Series A Stock with the Commission under the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Manager will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued by the Commission, and no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act has been initiated against the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company and the Operating Partnership, threatened by the Commission.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company, at the time of initial filing of the Registration Statement, at the earliest time thereafter that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the Securities Act) of the Securities, on the date hereof and on the Closing Date or any Additional Closing Date, if applicable, was not, is not and will not be an "ineligible issuer" (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Prospectus will not, as of its date and on the Closing Date and any Additional Closing Date, if applicable, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through the Representative by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information is specified in Section 15 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any documents incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and the Prospectus pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 (the "**Incorporated Documents**") heretofore filed, when they were filed (or, if any amendment with respect to any such document was filed, when such amendment was filed), conformed in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; no such Incorporated Document when it was filed (or, if an amendment with respect to any such document was filed, when such amendment was filed), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) As of the Applicable Time, neither (x) the Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus(es) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time and the Statutory Prospectus as of the Applicable Time, considered together (collectively, the "**General Disclosure Package**"), nor (y) any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the General Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through the Representative by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information is specified in Section 15 hereof.

The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, except where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), business, properties, assets, net worth, results of operations or prospects of the Company and the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a "**Material Adverse Effect**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Operating Partnership has been duly formed and is validly existing as a limited partnership in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite limited partnership power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties (the "**OP Properties**") and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (and any amendment or supplement thereto) and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xx) Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, none of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their subsidiaries is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding with any person (other than this Agreement) that would give rise to a valid claim against the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their subsidiaries or any Underwriter for a brokerage commission, finder's fee or like payment in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(yy) Other than as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, no person has the right to require the Company or any of its subsidiaries to register any securities for sale under the Securities Act by reason of the filing of the Registration Statement with the Commission or the issuance and sale of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(zz) The statements included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the headings "Description of the Series A Preferred Stock," "Description of Capital Stock," "Certain Provisions of Maryland Law and of Our Charter and Bylaws," "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" and "Underwriting," insofar as such statements summarize legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are accurate and fair summaries of such legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings in all material respects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aaa) Nothing has come to the attention of the Company and the Operating Partnership that has caused the Company and the Operating Partnership to believe that the statistical and market-related data included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus are not based on or derived from sources that are reliable and accurate in all material respects and, to the extent required, the Company has obtained the written consent to the use of such data from such sources.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(bbb) Commencing with its short taxable year ended December 31, 2019, the Company has been organized and has operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as REIT under the Code, and the Company's current and proposed method of operation will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for its taxable years ending December 31, 2025 and thereafter. All statements regarding the Company's qualification and taxation as a REIT and descriptions of the Company's organization and method of operation set forth in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the General Disclosure Package are true, complete and correct in all material respects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ccc) Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership is a party to or otherwise bound by any instrument or agreements that limits or prohibits (whether with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both), directly or indirectly, the Company or the Operating Partnership from paying any dividends or making other distributions on its capital stock or partnership interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ddd) No subsidiary of the Company and the Operating Partnership is currently prohibited, directly or indirectly, under any agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or is subject, from paying any dividends to the Company or the Operating Partnership or from making any other distribution on such subsidiary's capital stock or similar ownership interest, except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(eee) Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the Company does not (i) have any material lending or other relationship with any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter or (ii) intend to use any of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities to repay any outstanding debt owed to any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(fff) No securities issued by the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their subsidiaries are rated by a "nationally recognized statistical rating organization," as such term is defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act.

Any certificate signed by any officer or any authorized representative of the Company or the Operating Partnership and delivered to the Underwriters or to counsel for the Underwriters shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, to the Underwriters as to the matters covered thereby as of the date or dates indicated on such certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Representations and Warranties of the Manager</u>. The Manager hereby represents and warrants to each Underwriter on the date hereof, and shall be deemed to represent and warrant to each Underwriter on the Closing Date and the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The information regarding the Manager in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus is true and correct in all material respects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Manager has been duly formed and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the limited liability company power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Management Agreement, and the Manager is duly qualified as a foreign limited liability company to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, except where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), business, properties, assets, net worth, results of operations or prospects of the Manager (a "**Manager Material Adverse Effect**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Manager.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Management Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Manager and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Manager, enforceable against the Manager in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by (i) the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and (ii) general equitable principles being applied at the discretion of a court before which any proceeding may be brought, except as to rights to indemnity and contribution thereunder may be limited by federal or state securities laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Manager is not (i) in violation of its organizational documents or (ii) in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any agreements to which it is bound, or which any of its property or assets is subject, except, in the case of (ii) above, for such defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Manager Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and compliance by the Manager with its obligations hereunder do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or Debt Repayment Triggering Event under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Manager pursuant to any agreement to which the Manager is bound or to which any of its properties or assets is subject (except for such conflicts, breaches, defaults or Debt Repayment Triggering Events or liens, charges or encumbrances that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Manager Material Adverse Effect), nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of the Manager or any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Manager or any of its properties or assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Manager is in compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules, regulations, orders, decrees and judgments, except where the failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Manager Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Manager, threatened, against or affecting the Manager that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Manager Material Adverse Effect, or that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the Management Agreement or the performance by the Manager of its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Neither the Manager nor any member, officer, or employee of the Manager nor, to the knowledge of the Manager, any agent, affiliate or other person associated with or acting on behalf of the Manager has: (A) used any funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity; (B) made or taken an act in furtherance of an offer, promise or authorization of any direct or indirect unlawful payment or benefit to any foreign or domestic government or regulatory official or employee, including of any government-owned or controlled entity or of a public international organization, or any person acting in an official capacity for or on behalf of any of the foregoing, or any political party or party official or candidate for political office; (C) violated or is in violation of any provision of the Anti-Corruption Laws; or (D) made, offered, agreed, requested or taken an act in furtherance of any unlawful bribe or other unlawful benefit, including, without limitation, any rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful or improper payment or benefit. The Manager has instituted, maintains and enforces, and will continue to maintain and enforce, policies and procedures designed to promote and ensure compliance with the Anti-Corruption Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The operations of the Manager are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements, including those of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws of all jurisdictions having jurisdiction over the Manager, and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any governmental agency, authority or body involving the Manager with respect to the Anti-Money Laundering Laws of any jurisdiction having jurisdiction over the Manager is pending or, to the knowledge of the Manager, threatened.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary or required for the performance by the Manager of its obligations hereunder, in connection with the offering or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Management Agreement, except such as have been already obtained or as may be required under the Securities Act or state securities laws or as are described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Manager possesses all licenses, certificates, permits and other authorizations issued by, and has made all declarations and filings with, the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign governmental agency, authority or body having jurisdiction over the Manager that are necessary for the ownership or lease of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business as currently conducted and described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, except where the failure to possess or make the same would not reasonably be expected to have, singly or in the aggregate, a Manager Material Adverse Effect. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the Manager has not received any notice or is otherwise aware of any revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, permit or authorization or has any reason to believe that any such license, certificate, permit or authorization will not be renewed in the ordinary course, except where such revocation, modification or non-renewal would not reasonably be expected to have, singly or in the aggregate, a Manager Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The execution, delivery and performance by the Manager of this Agreement and the Management Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Management Agreement will not (A) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, or the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any properties or assets of the Manager pursuant to, any agreement or instrument to which the Manager is a party or by which the Manager is bound or to which any of the properties or assets of the Manager is subject, (B) result in any violation of the provisions of the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Manager or (C) result in the violation of any law or statute applicable to the Manager or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any governmental agency, authority or body having jurisdiction over the Manager or any of its properties or assets, except, in the case of clauses (A) and (C) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation, default, acceleration, lien, charge or encumbrance that would not reasonably be expected to have, singly or in the aggregate, a Manager Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Manager has not been notified that any current executive officer of the Company or the Manager plans to terminate his, her or their employment with his, her or their current employer. Neither the Manager nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any executive officer or key employee of the Company or the Manager, is subject to any noncompete, nondisclosure, confidentiality, employment, consulting or similar agreement that would be violated by the present or proposed business activities of the Company or the Manager as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) The Manager has access to the personnel and other resources necessary for the performance of the duties of the Manager set forth in the Management Agreement and as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) The Manager operates a system of internal controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (A) transactions that may be effectuated by it on behalf of the Company and the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries pursuant to its duties set forth in the Management Agreement will be executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorization and (B) access to the Company's or the Operating Partnership's assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) The Manager is insured by insurers with appropriately rated claims paying abilities against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary for the businesses in which the Manager is engaged; all policies of insurance and fidelity or surety bonds insuring the Manager or its business, assets, employees, officers and directors are in full force and effect; and the Manager has not been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) The Manager (including its agents and representatives, other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) has not prepared, used, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, use, authorize, approve or refer to any "written communication" (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) The Manager has not taken, and will not take, directly or indirectly, any action that constituted, or any action designed to, or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in or constitute, under the Securities Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company and the Operating Partnership to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities or for any other purpose.

Any certificate signed by any officer or any authorized representative of the Manager and delivered to the Underwriters or to counsel for the Underwriters shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Manager to the Underwriters as to the matters covered thereby as of the date or dates indicated on such certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Expenses</u>. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated or this Agreement becomes effective or is terminated, the Company agrees to pay or cause to be paid the following: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company's and the Manager's counsel and accountants in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act and all other expenses in connection with the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and amendments and supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof and of the Preliminary Prospectus to the Underwriters and dealers; (ii) the printing and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, each Preliminary Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Blue Sky memoranda, this Agreement and all amendments or supplements to any of them as may be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities; (iii) consistent with the provisions of Section 5(d) hereof, all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under state securities laws or Blue Sky laws, including reasonable attorneys' fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the counsel for the Underwriters in connection therewith; (iv) the filing fees incident to securing any required review by FINRA of the fairness of the terms of the sale of the Securities and the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Underwriters' counsel relating thereto up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,000; (v) the cost of preparing stock certificates, if any; (vi) the costs and charges of any transfer agent or registrar; (vii) the cost of the tax stamps, if any, in connection with the issuance and delivery of the Securities to the respective Underwriters or their affiliates and (viii) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Securities on the NYSE. Except as provided in this Section 9, the Underwriters shall pay their own expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel. In addition, in the event that the proposed offering is terminated for the reasons set forth in Section 5(e) hereof, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters as provided in Section 5(e) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Indemnification and Contribution</u>. Subject to the limitations in this paragraph below, the Company and the Operating Partnership jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Representative and each other Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation and attorneys' fees and expenses (collectively, "**Damages**") arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or any "issuer information" filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; except with respect to (i) or (ii) to the extent that any such Damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that has been made therein or omitted therefrom in reliance upon and in conformity with the information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representative, expressly for use in connection therewith, which information is specified in Section 15 hereof. This indemnification shall be in addition to any liability that the Company and the Operating Partnership may otherwise have.

If any action or claim shall be brought against any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company and the Operating Partnership, such Underwriter or such controlling person shall promptly notify in writing the party(s) against whom indemnification is being sought (the "**indemnifying party**" or "**indemnifying parties**"), and such indemnifying party or parties shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably acceptable to such Underwriter or such controlling person and the payment of all reasonable fees of and expenses incurred by such counsel. Such Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person, unless (i) the indemnifying party(s) has (have) agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party(s) has (have) failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Underwriter or such controlling person or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Underwriter or such controlling person and the indemnifying party(s), and such Underwriter or such controlling person shall have been advised by its counsel that one or more legal defenses may be available to the Underwriter that may not be available to the Company and the Operating Partnership, or that representation of such indemnified party and any indemnifying party(s) by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them (in which case the indemnifying party(s) shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Underwriter or such controlling person (but the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Underwriters and such controlling persons)). The indemnifying party(s) shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its (their several) written consent, but if settled with such written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party(s) agree(s) to indemnify and hold harmless any Underwriter and any such controlling person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment, but in the case of a judgment only to the extent stated in the first paragraph of this Section 10.

Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and the Operating Partnership, their respective directors and their respective officers who sign the Registration Statement and any person who controls any of the Company and the Operating Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing several indemnity from the Company and the Operating Partnership to each Underwriter, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Preliminary Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, which is specified in Section 15 hereof. If any action or claim shall be brought or asserted against the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their respective directors, any of their respective officers or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Preliminary Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to this paragraph, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company and the Operating Partnership by the immediately preceding paragraph (except that if the Company and the Operating Partnership shall have assumed the defense thereof such Underwriter shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter's expense), and the Company and the Operating Partnership, their respective directors, their respective officers and any such controlling persons, shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by the immediately preceding paragraph.

In any event, (i) the Company and the Operating Partnership will not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which the indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Representative or any person who controls the Representative within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of all Underwriters and such controlling persons from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) the Underwriters will not, without the prior written consent of the Company and the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which the indemnification may be sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Company and the Operating Partnership from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 10, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by this Section 10 effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable or insufficient for any reason whatsoever to an indemnified party in respect of any Damages referred to herein, then an indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Damages (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, from the offering and sale of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative and several fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus; provided that, in the event that the Underwriters shall have purchased any Additional Securities hereunder, any determination of the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership or the Underwriters from the offering of the Securities shall include the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, from the sale of such Additional Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, or by the Underwriters on the other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 was determined by a pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Damages referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the underwriting commissions received by such underwriter in connection with the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Representative shall have received letters addressed to the Representative and dated the date hereof and the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, from the firm of Grant Thornton LLP, independent certified public accountants, provided that such letters shall have a "cut off" date of no more than three business days prior to such Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Company shall not have failed in any material respect at or prior to the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, to have performed or complied with any of its agreements herein contained and required to be performed or complied with by it hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Company and the Operating Partnership and the Manager shall have furnished or caused to have been furnished to the Representative such further certificates and documents as the Representative shall have reasonably requested.

All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and counsel for the Underwriters.

The several obligations of the Underwriters to purchase Additional Securities hereunder are subject to the satisfaction on and as of the Additional Closing Date of the conditions set forth in this Section 11, except that, if the Additional Closing Date is other than the Closing Date, the certificates, opinions and letters referred to in this Section 11 shall be dated as of the Additional Closing Date and the certificates, opinions and letters called for by paragraphs (c) through (e) shall be revised to reflect the sale of Additional Securities.

If any of the conditions hereinabove provided for in this Section 11 shall not have been satisfied when and as required by this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by the Representative by notifying the Company of such termination in writing at or prior to such Closing Date, but the Representative shall be entitled to waive any of such conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Effective Date of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Defaulting Underwriters</u>. If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder, and the aggregate number of Firm Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Firm Securities, each non-defaulting Underwriter shall be obligated, severally, in the proportion in which the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite its name in <u>Schedule I</u> hereto bears to the aggregate number of Firm Securities set forth opposite the names of all non-defaulting Underwriters or in such other proportion as the Representative may specify in an agreement among underwriters, to purchase the Firm Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed, but failed or refused to purchase. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Securities and the aggregate number of Firm Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Securities and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Firm Securities are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company, the Operating Partnership or the Manager. In any such case that does not result in termination of this Agreement, either the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven (7) days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any such default of any such Underwriter under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Termination of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representative, without liability on the part of any Underwriter to the Company by notice to the Company, if prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date (if different from the Closing Date and then only as to the Additional Securities), as the case may be, in the sole judgment of the Representative, (i) trading in the Common Stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or the NYSE, (ii) trading in securities generally on the NYSE shall have been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on such exchange, or additional material governmental restrictions, not in force on the date of this Agreement, shall have been imposed upon trading in securities generally by any such exchange or by order of the Commission or any court or other governmental authority, (iii) there has been since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (in each case exclusive of any amendments or supplements thereto subsequent to the date of this Agreement), any Material Adverse Effect, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (iv) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by either federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other international or domestic calamity, crisis or change in political, financial or economic conditions or other material event the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities. Notice of such cancellation shall be promptly given to the Company and its counsel by email or telephone and shall be subsequently confirmed by letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Information Furnished by the Underwriters</u>. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledges that the following information in the most recent Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus constitutes the only information furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriters through the Representative or on their behalf as such information is referred to in Section 7 and Section 10: (i) the list of Underwriters under the heading "Underwriting" and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities; (ii) the third paragraph of text under the heading "Underwriting" related to the public offering price and concessions; (iii) the fourth sentence of the sixth paragraph of text under the heading "Underwriting" related to market making activities and (iv) the ninth and tenth paragraphs of text under the heading "Underwriting" related to stabilization and syndicate covering transactions.

This Agreement has been and is made solely for the benefit of the several Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership and their respective directors and officers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. <u>Applicable Law; Counterparts</u>. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to choice of law principles thereunder other than New York General Obligations Law 5-1401 and 5-1402.

This Agreement may be signed in various counterparts, which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

This Agreement shall be effective when, but only when, at least one counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of each party hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. <u>No Fiduciary Duty</u>. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Underwriters have acted at arm's length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company and the Operating Partnership or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company and the Operating Partnership only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company and the Operating Partnership waive to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims they may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. <u>Research Analyst Independence</u>. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that (a) the Underwriters' research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies and (b) the Underwriters' research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company, the value of the Common Stock and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. The Company and the Operating Partnership hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that they may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by the Underwriters' independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company and the Operating Partnership by any Underwriter's investment banking division. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that each of the Underwriters is a full-service securities firm and as such, from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that are the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. <u>Consent to Jurisdiction</u>. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be instituted in (i) the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan or (ii) the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan (collectively, the "**Specified Courts**"), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any such court, as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive) of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party's address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. <u>Partial Unenforceability</u>. The invalidity or unenforceability of any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other Section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. <u>Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. Each of the Company (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates), the Operating Partnership, the Manager and the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23. <u>Amendments and Waivers</u>. Any provision or requirement of this Agreement may be waived or amended in any respect by a writing signed by the parties hereto. No waiver or amendment shall be enforceable against any party hereto unless in writing and signed by the party against which such waiver is claimed. A waiver of any provision or requirement of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term and shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. A waiver of a provision or requirement of this Agreement will apply only to the specific circumstances cited therein and will not prevent a party from subsequently requiring compliance with the waived provision or requirement in other circumstances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24. <u>Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity (as defined below) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate (as defined below) of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For purposes of this Section 24, a "BHC Act Affiliate" has the meaning assigned to the term "affiliate" in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Change of Control:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; A "Change of Control" is when, after the original issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the following have occurred and are continuing:<br>· the acquisition by any person, including any syndicate or group deemed to be a "person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, through a purchase, merger or other acquisition transaction or series of purchases, mergers or other acquisition transactions of stock of the Issuer entitling that person to exercise more than 50% of the total voting power of all stock of the Issuer entitled to vote generally in the election of the Issuer's directors (except that such person will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is currently exercisable or is exercisable only upon the occurrence of a subsequent condition); and<br>· following the closing of any transaction referred to in the bullet point above, neither the Issuer nor the acquiring or surviving entity has a class of common securities (or American Depositary Receipts representing such securities) listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), the NYSE American, LLC (the "NYSE American") or the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq"), or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or Nasdaq. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | &nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the transaction or series of transactions described in the first bullet point above (the "Change of Control Transaction") forms part of a series of related transactions that occur within twelve (12) months of the closing or consummation of the Change of Control Transaction (including, without limitation, any merger, consolidation, sale or transfer of assets, recapitalization, reorganization, or special or extraordinary distribution, in each case outside of the ordinary course of the Issuer's business (the "Related Transactions")), and if the aggregate consideration paid to the Issuer and/or holders of its common stock in connection with the Change of Control Transaction represents less than 50.0% of the aggregate consideration payable to the Issuer and/or its holders of common stock in connection with both the Change of Control Transaction and the Related Transaction on a combined basis, then the Change of Control Transaction shall be deemed to constitute a Change of Control, regardless of whether the second bullet point above is satisfied. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Conversion Rights:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right (unless, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Issuer has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock) to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder (the "Change of Control Conversion Right") on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of shares of the Issuer's common stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of:<br>· the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of (x) the $25.00 liquidation preference plus (y) the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a record date for a Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment and prior to the corresponding Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividend will be included in this sum) by (ii) the Common Stock Price; and<br>· 3.38066 (i.e., the Share Cap), subject to certain adjustments; subject, in each case, to provisions for the receipt of alternative consideration as described in the preliminary prospectus supplement.<br>The Share Cap is subject to pro rata adjustments for any share splits (including those effected pursuant to a distribution of the Issuer's common stock), subdivisions or combinations with respect to the Issuer's common stock as described in the preliminary prospectus supplement. |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp; Upon such a conversion, the holders will be limited to a maximum number of shares of the Issuer's common stock equal to the Share Cap multiplied by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted. If the Common Stock Price is less than $7.395 per share (which is approximately 50% of the per-share closing sale price of the Issuer's common stock reported on the NYSE on November 4, 2025), subject to adjustment, the holders will receive a maximum of 3.38066 shares of the Issuer's common stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock, which may result in the holders receiving a value that is less than the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock.<br>If, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Issuer has provided a redemption notice, whether pursuant to its special optional redemption right in connection with a Change of Control or its optional redemption right, holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not have any right to convert the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock selected for redemption in connection with the Change of Control Conversion Right and any shares of Series A Preferred Stock selected for redemption that have been tendered for conversion will be redeemed on the related date of redemption instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date.<br>The "Change of Control Conversion Date" is the date the Series A Preferred Stock is to be converted, which will be a business day that is no fewer than 20 days nor more than 35 days after the date on which the Issuer provides the required notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.<br>The "Common Stock Price" will be (i) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control by the holders of the Issuer's common stock is solely cash, the amount of cash consideration per share of the Issuer's common stock or (ii) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control by holders of the Issuer's common stock is other than solely cash (x) the average of the closing sale prices per share of the Issuer's common stock (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the closing bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average closing bid and the average closing ask prices) for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control as reported on the principal U.S. securities exchange on which the Issuer's common stock is then traded, or (y) the average of the last quoted bid prices for the Issuer's common stock in the over-the-counter market as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc. or similar organization for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control, if the Issuer's common stock is not then listed for trading on a<br> U.S. securities exchange. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the preferential rights of holders of any class or series of Preferred Units of the Partnership expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Units as to distributions, the holders of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized by the General Partner and declared by the Partnership, out of funds of the Partnership legally available for payment of distributions, cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 8.00% per annum of the Base Liquidation Preference (as defined below) per unit (equivalent to a fixed annual amount of $2.00 per unit) (the "***Series A Preferred Return***"*)*. Such distributions shall accrue and be cumulative from, and including, the Original Issue Date, and shall be payable quarterly in arrears, on each Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date (as defined below), commencing on December 31, 2025; *provided*, *however*, that if any Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the distribution which would otherwise have been payable on such Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date may be paid, at the General Partner's option, on either the immediately preceding Business Day or the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if paid on such Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date, and no interest or additional distributions or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day. The amount of any distribution payable on the Series A Preferred Units for any period greater or lesser than a full Distribution Period (as defined below) shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Distributions will be payable to holders of record of Series A Preferred Units as they appear on the records of the Partnership on the applicable Dividend Record Date (each, a "***Distribution Record Date***"*).* Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, each Series A Preferred Unit outstanding on any Distribution Record Date for the determination of holders of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive any distribution with respect to such Distribution Record Date equal to the distribution paid with respect to each other Series A Preferred Unit that is outstanding on such Distribution Record Date. "***Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date***" shall mean March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on December 31, 2025. "***Distribution Period***" shall mean the respective periods commencing on and including the first day of January, April, July and October of each year and ending on and including the day preceding the first day of the next succeeding Distribution Period (other than the initial Distribution Period, which shall commence on the Original Issue Date and end on and include December 31, 2025, and other than the Distribution Period during which any Series A Preferred Units are redeemed pursuant to Section ‎7, which shall end on and include the day preceding the redemption date with respect to the Series A Preferred Units being redeemed).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, distributions on the Series A Preferred Units shall accrue whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such distributions, and whether or not such distributions are authorized or declared.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Except as provided in Section 5(d), no distributions shall be declared and paid or declared and set apart for payment, and no other distribution of cash or other property may be declared and made, directly or indirectly, on or with respect to, any Junior Units or Parity Preferred Units (other than a distribution paid in Junior Units) for any period, nor shall any Junior Units or Parity Preferred Units be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration, nor shall any funds be paid or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of such Units, and no other distribution of cash or other property may be made, directly or indirectly, on or with respect thereto by the Partnership (except by conversion into or in exchange for Junior Units and except for the acquisition of Series A Preferred Units, Junior Units or Parity Preferred Units in connection with a redemption of stock pursuant to the provisions of Article VII of the Charter), unless full cumulative distributions on the Series A Preferred Units for all past Distribution Periods that have ended shall have been or contemporaneously are (i) declared and paid in cash or (ii) declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in cash is set apart for such payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) When distributions are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) on the Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Preferred Units, all distributions declared upon the Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Preferred Units shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of distributions declared per Series A Preferred Unit and such Parity Preferred Units shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued distributions per Series A Preferred Unit and such Parity Preferred Units (which shall not include any accrual in respect of unpaid distributions on such Parity Preferred Units for prior Distribution Periods if such Parity Preferred Units do not have a cumulative distribution) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment or payments on the Series A Preferred Units which may be in arrears.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to any distribution, whether payable in cash, property or units, in excess of full cumulative distributions on the Series A Preferred Units as provided above. Any distribution payment made on the Series A Preferred Units shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid distributions due with respect to such units which remain payable. Accrued but unpaid distributions on the Series A Preferred Units will accumulate as of the Distribution Payment Date on which they first become payable.

6. <u>Liquidation Preference</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of Junior Units, the holders of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Partnership legally available for distribution to its partners, after payment of or provision for the debts and other liabilities of the Partnership and any class or series of Preferred Units issued by the Partnership ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, senior to the Series A Preferred Units, a liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit (the "***Base Liquidation Preference***"*)*, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid distributions (whether or not authorized or declared) up to, but excluding, the date of payment. In the event that, upon such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the available assets of the Partnership are insufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding Series A Preferred Units and the corresponding amounts payable on any Parity Preferred Units, then the holders of the Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Preferred Units shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given not fewer than 30 or more than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of Series A Preferred Units at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on records of the Partnership. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series A Preferred Units will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership. The consolidation or merger of the Partnership with or into any other corporation, trust or other entity, or the voluntary sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Partnership, shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by distribution, redemption or other acquisition of the Partnership Units, is permitted under Delaware law, amounts that would be needed, if the Partnership were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be added to the Partnership's total liabilities.

7. <u>Redemption</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Series A Preferred Units are not redeemable except as otherwise provided in this Section ‎7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In connection with any redemption by the Parent REIT of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 of the Articles Supplementary, the Partnership shall redeem, on the date of such redemption, an equal number of Series A Preferred Units held by the Parent REIT. As consideration for the redemption of such Series A Preferred Units, the Partnership shall deliver to the Parent REIT an amount of cash equal to the amount of cash paid by the Parent REIT to the holder of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the redemption thereof.

8. <u>Voting Rights</u>. Holders of the Series A Preferred Units will not have any voting rights.

9. <u>Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Series A Preferred Units are not convertible or exchangeable for any other property or securities except as otherwise provided in this Section ‎9.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that a holder of Series A Preferred Stock exercises its right to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles Supplementary, then, concurrently therewith, an equivalent number of Series A Preferred Units held by the Parent REIT shall be automatically converted into a number of Common Units equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if a holder of Series A Preferred Stock receives cash or other consideration in addition to or in lieu of Common Stock in connection with such conversion, then the Parent REIT, as the holder of the Series A Preferred Units, shall be entitled to receive cash or such other consideration equal (in amount and form) to the cash or other consideration to be paid by the Parent REIT to such holder of the Series A Preferred Stock. Any such conversion will be effective at the same time the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock is effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No fractional units will be issued in connection with the conversion of Series A Preferred Units into Common Units. In lieu of fractional Common Units, the Parent REIT shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in respect of any fractional unit in an amount equal to the fractional interest multiplied by the Common Stock Price used in determining the Common Stock Conversion Consideration under the Articles Supplementary.

10. <u>Allocation of Profit and Loss</u>.

Section 5.01 of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 5.01 is inserted in its place:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Profit</u>. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(c), (d), and (e) hereof, and subject to Section 5.01(f), Profit of the Partnership for each fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Loss</u>. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(c), (d), and (e) hereof, and subject to Section 5.01(f), Loss of the Partnership for each fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Minimum Gain Chargeback</u>. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, (i) any expense of the Partnership that is a "nonrecourse deduction" within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1) shall be allocated in accordance with the Partners' respective Percentage Interests, (ii) any expense of the Partnership that is a "partner nonrecourse deduction" within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2) shall be allocated to the Partner that bears the "economic risk of loss" of such deduction in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1), (iii) if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(1) for any Partnership taxable year, then, subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2),(3), (4) and (5), items of gain and income shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and the ordering rules contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(j), and (iv) if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) for any Partnership taxable year, then, subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704(2)(g), items of gain and income shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and the ordering rules contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(j). The manner in which it is reasonably expected that the deductions attributable to nonrecourse liabilities will be allocated for purposes of determining a Partner's share of the nonrecourse liabilities of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be in accordance with a Partner's Percentage Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Qualified Income Offset</u>. If a Partner receives in any taxable year an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in subparagraphs (4), (5) or (6) of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) that causes or increases a deficit balance in such Partner's Capital Account that exceeds the sum of such Partner's shares of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, as determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i), such Partner shall be allocated specially for such taxable year (and, if necessary, later taxable years) items of income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit Capital Account balance as quickly as possible as provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). After the occurrence of an allocation of income or gain to a Partner in accordance with this Section 5.01(d), to the extent permitted by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), items of expense or loss shall be allocated to such Partner in an amount necessary to offset the income or gain previously allocated to such Partner under this Section 5.01(d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Capital Account Deficits</u>. Loss shall not be allocated to a Limited Partner to the extent that such allocation would cause a deficit in such Partner's Capital Account (after reduction to reflect the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)) to exceed the sum of such Partner's shares of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Any Loss in excess of that limitation shall be allocated to the General Partner. After the occurrence of an allocation of Loss to the General Partner in accordance with this Section 5.01(e), to the extent permitted by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), Profit first shall be allocated to the General Partner in an amount necessary to offset the Loss previously allocated to the General Partner under this Section 5.01(e).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Priority Allocations With Respect To Preferred Units</u>. After giving effect to the allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(c), (d), and (e) hereof, but before giving effect to the allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(a) and 5.01(b), Net Operating Income shall be allocated to the Parent REIT until the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income allocated to the Parent REIT under this Section 5.01(f) for the current and all prior years equals the aggregate amount of the Series A Preferred Return paid to the Parent REIT for the current and all prior years; *provided, however,* that the General Partner may, in its discretion, allocate Net Operating Income based on accrued Series A Preferred Return with respect to the January Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date if the General Partner sets the Distribution Record Date for such Series A Preferred Distribution Payment Date on or prior to December 31 of the previous year. For purposes of this Section 5.01(f), "***Net Operating Income***" means the excess, if any, of the Partnership's gross income over its expenses (but not taking into account depreciation, amortization, or any other noncash expenses of the Partnership), calculated in accordance with the principles of Section 5.01(j) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Allocations Between Transferor and Transferee</u>. If a Partner transfers any part or all of its Partnership Interest, the distributive shares of the various items of Profit and Loss allocable among the Partners during such fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee Partner either (i) as if the Partnership's fiscal year had ended on the date of the transfer or (ii) based on the number of days of such fiscal year that each was a Partner without regard to the results of Partnership activities in the respective portions of such fiscal year in which the transferor and the transferee were Partners. The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine which method shall be used to allocate the distributive shares of the various items of Profit and Loss between the transferor and the transferee Partner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Special Allocations Regarding LTIP Units</u>. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.01(a) and (b) hereof, Liquidating Gains shall first be allocated to the LTIP Unitholders until their Economic Capital Account Balances, to the extent attributable to their ownership of LTIP Units, are equal to (i) the Common Unit Economic Balance, multiplied by (ii) the number of their LTIP Units (the "***Target Balance***") and thereafter shall be allocated in accordance with Section 5.01(a); provided, however, that unless otherwise specified by the General Partner in the grant of specific LTIP Units, no such Liquidating Gains will be allocated with respect to any particular LTIP Unit unless and to the extent that such Liquidating Gains, when aggregated with other Liquidating Gains realized since the issuance of such LTIP Unit, exceed Liquidating Losses realized since the issuance of such LTIP Unit. Liquidating Gains that cannot be allocated to LTIP Unitholders by reason of the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be allocated to the holders of Common Units. Liquidating Gains otherwise allocable to the LTIP Unitholders pursuant to the second preceding sentence shall be allocated (i) on a "first-in, first-out" basis with respect to LTIP Units issued on different dates and (ii) on an equal basis with respect to LTIP Units issued on the same date (i.e., Liquidating Gains shall be allocated first to the LTIP Units that were issued on the earliest date, and then with respect to such LTIP Units, equally among such LTIP Units). For this purpose, "***Liquidating Gains***" means net capital gains realized in connection with the actual or hypothetical sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, including but not limited to net capital gain realized in connection with an adjustment to the value of Partnership assets under Section 704(b) of the Code. "***Liquidating Losses***" means any net capital loss realized in connection with any such event. The "***Economic Capital Account Balances***" of the LTIP Unitholders will be equal to their Capital Account balances plus shares of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain or Partnership Minimum Gain (after reduction to reflect the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)) to the extent attributable to their ownership of LTIP Units. Similarly, the "***Common Unit Economic Balance***" shall mean (i) the Capital Account balance of Parent REIT, plus the amount of Parent REIT's share of any Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain or Partnership Minimum Gain (after reduction to reflect the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)), in either case to the extent attributable to Parent REIT's direct or indirect ownership of Common Units and computed on a hypothetical basis after taking into account all allocations through the date on which any allocation is made under this Section 5.01(h), divided by (ii) the number of Common Units directly or indirectly owned by Parent REIT. Any such allocations shall be made among the LTIP Unitholders in proportion to the amounts required to be allocated to each under this Section 5.01(h). The parties agree that the intent of this Section 5.01(h) is to make the Capital Account balance associated with each LTIP Unit to be economically equivalent to the Capital Account balance associated with Common Units directly or indirectly owned by Parent REIT (on a per-Unit basis). The General Partner shall be permitted to interpret this Section 5.01(h) or to amend this Agreement to the extent necessary and consistent with this intention.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Preferred Units</u>. The General Partner shall amend this agreement from time to time to reflect the allocation of profit and loss in connection with priority distributions on any preferred units of limited partnership issued by the Partnership.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Definition of Profit and Loss</u>. "***Profit***" and "***Loss***" and any items of income, gain, expense or loss referred to in this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with federal income tax accounting principles, as modified by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), except that Profit and Loss shall not include items of income, gain and expense that are specially allocated pursuant to Sections 5.01(c), (d), (e) or (f) hereof. All allocations of income, Profit, gain, Loss and expense (and all items contained therein) for federal income tax purposes shall be identical to all allocations of such items set forth in this Section 5.01, except as otherwise required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4). With respect to properties acquired by the Partnership, the General Partner shall have the authority to elect the method to be used by the Partnership for allocating items of income, gain and expense as required by Section 704(c) of the Code with respect to such properties, and such election shall be binding on all Partners.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Profits Interests</u>. LTIP Units are intended to constitute "profits interests" within the meaning of Revenue Procedure 93-27, 1993-2 C.B. 343 (June 9, 1993), and Revenue Procedure 2001-43, 2001-2 C.B. 191 (August 3, 2001). For any fiscal year in which distributions are actually made to holders of LTIP Units, after all other allocations have been tentatively made pursuant to this Section 5.01, if necessary to cause the Capital Accounts relating to any LTIP Units to be equal (immediately before such distributions and so as to avoid negative Capital Accounts) to the amounts distributed to the holders of the LTIP Units, the General Partner, in its discretion, may allocate appropriate items of gross income that are accrued and realized following the issuance of the relevant LTIP Units to the holders of such LTIP Units. If there are insufficient items of gross income to be allocated to the holders of the LTIP Units, then such distributions shall, to the extent of such excess, be treated as "guaranteed payments" within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code.

11. Except as modified herein, all terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, which terms and conditions the General Partner hereby ratifies and confirms.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Amendment as of the date first set forth above.

Re: Management Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to that certain Management Agreement, dated November 26, 2019, and as amended on July 18, 2024 (as amended, the "<u>Management Agreement</u>"), among Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (the "<u>Company</u>"), Alpine Income Property OP, LP and Alpine Income Property Manager, LLC (the "<u>Manager</u>"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Management Agreement.

The Company has proposed an underwritten public offering (the "<u>Offering</u>") of shares of 8.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "<u>Preferred Shares</u>").

The Manager wishes to confirm certain matters, more fully set forth below, with respect to a partial waiver of the Base Management Fee attributable to the inclusion of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Preferred Shares in the Company's Total Equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Management Fee</u>.

In connection with and subject to the completion of the Offering, the Manager shall waive a portion of the Base Management Fee attributable to the inclusion of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Preferred Shares in Total Equity (the "<u>Incremental Equity Base</u>"), such that the Base Management Fee rate on the Incremental Equity Base will equal 0.75% per annum (0.1875% per fiscal quarter), instead of 1.50% per annum (0.375% per fiscal quarter) as provided in the Management Agreement (the "<u>Waiver</u>"). If the Offering is not completed by November 30, 2025, this Waiver becomes null and void.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>General</u>.

Except as expressly set forth in this waiver letter, nothing herein shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy under the Management Agreement, which otherwise remains in full force and effect.
