 8. FEES. 
 (A) ASSET MANAGEMENT FEE. Subject to the overall limitations contained below in this Section 8(a), commencing on the
Effective Date, the Advisor shall receive the Asset Management Fee in consideration for the services rendered in connection with the management of the Company’s assets, calculated on the last day of each preceding month. The Asset Management
Fee shall be payable by the Company in cash or in Shares at the election of the Advisor in whole or in part, from time to time, by the Advisor (without interest). If the Advisor elects to receive the Asset Management Fee in the form of Shares, then
the Shares shall be valued at a price per share equal to the average closing price of the Shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of such election if the Shares are Listed at such time. If the Shares are not Listed and the
Company is still in its Offering Stage at such time, the Advisor will estimate the per share value of the Shares at a price per share equal the most recent price paid to acquire a Share (excluding any Shares sold at a purchase price discounts for
certain categories of purchasers). If the Shares are not Listed and the Offering Stage has been completed for 12 month at such time, the Shares shall be valued at a price per share equal the published annual estimated value of the shares as
determined by the Advisor based upon the

  

 10 

 
Appraised Value of the Assets on the date of election. 
 (B) REAL ESTATE DISPOSITION FEE. If the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or
such Affiliate shall receive at closing a Real Estate Disposition Fee equal to the lesser of (i) one-half of the Competitive Real Estate Commission, or (1) if the contract price for the Sale is in excess of $20 million, then an amount not
to exceed 1.0% of the contract price of such Property or Properties, and (2) if the contract price for the sale is $20 million or less, then an amount not to exceed 2.0% of the sales price of such Property or Properties. In each case in which a
Real Estate Disposition Fee may be payable, the precise amount of the fee within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence shall be determined by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, based upon the extent of the
services provided by the Advisor or its Affiliate and market norms for the services provided. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Real Estate Disposition Fee shall be payable to the Advisor for Property Sales if such Sales involve
the Company selling all or substantially all of its Properties in one or more transactions designed to effectuate a business combination transaction (as opposed to a Company liquidation, in which case the Real Estate Disposition Fee would be payable
if the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount of services as provided above). Any Real Estate Disposition Fee payable under this section may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the
total real estate commissions (including such Real Estate Disposition Fee) paid to all Persons by the Company for each Property shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6.0% of the Contract Sales Price of the Property or
(ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for the Property. 
 (C) SPECIAL PARTNERSHIP UNITS. The Advisor
has made capital contributions to the Partnership in exchange for certain partnership units as described as follows: $2,000 in exchange for 200 common units and $1,000 in exchange for 100 Special Units. Upon the earliest to occur of the termination
of this Agreement for Cause, a Termination Event, or a Listing, all of the Special Units shall be redeemed by the Partnership in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. 
 (D) CHANGES TO FEE STRUCTURE. In the event of Listing, the Company and the Advisor shall negotiate in good faith to
establish a fee structure appropriate for a perpetual-life entity. 
 (E) NO DUPLICATION OF FEES. Under no
circumstances shall the Advisor be entitled to receive duplicate fees from the Company and the Operating Partnership for the provision of the same services. 
 9. EXPENSES. 
 (A) REIMBURSABLE EXPENSES. In
addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Company or the Partnership shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor (to the extent not reimbursable by
another party, such as the dealer manager) in connection with the services it provides to the Company and the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not

  

 11 

 
limited to: 
 (i) the Organization and
Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within 60 days after the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company to the extent (i) Capped O&O Expenses borne by the Company exceed the maximum
amount permitted pursuant to the prospectus for the Offering and (ii) Organization and Offering Expenses borne by the Company exceed 15% of the Gross Proceeds raised in a completed Offering; 
 (ii) Acquisition Expenses payable to unaffiliated Persons incurred in connection with the selection and
acquisition of Properties; 
 (iii) the actual cost of goods and services used by the Company and
obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor, other than Acquisition Expenses, including brokerage fees paid in connection with the purchase and sale of securities; 
 (iv) interest and other costs for borrowed money, including discounts, points and other similar fees;

 (v) taxes and assessments on income of the Company or Properties; 
 (vi) costs associated with insurance required in connection with the business of the Company or by the Board;

 (vii) expenses of managing and operating Properties owned by the Company, whether payable to
an Affiliate of the Company or a non-affiliated Person; 
 (viii) all expenses in connection with
payments to the Board and meetings of the Board and Stockholders; 
 (ix) expenses associated
with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of securities other than the Shares, such as selling commissions and fees, advertising expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, listing and registration fees; 
 (x) expenses connected with payments of Distributions in cash or otherwise made or caused to be made by the
Company to the Stockholders; 
 (xi) expenses of organizing, redomesticating, merging,
liquidating or dissolving the Company or of amending the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws; 
 (xii) expenses of maintaining communications with Stockholders or their financial advisors, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports required
by governmental entities; 
 (xiii) administrative service expenses (including (i) personnel
costs; provided, however, that no reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel to the extent that such personnel perform services in transactions for which the Advisor receives a separate

  

 12 

 
fee, and (ii) the Company’s allocable share of other overhead of the Advisor such as rent and utilities); 
 (xiv) regulatory compliance expenses; and 
 (xv) audit, accounting and legal fees. 
 (B) OTHER SERVICES. Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services
for the Company and the Partnership other than set forth in Section 3, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Board, including a majority of the Independent
Directors, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 (C) TIMING OF AND LIMITATIONS ON REIMBURSEMENTS. 
 (i) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and the Partnership and payable pursuant to this Section 9 shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall
prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company and the Partnership during each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company and the Partnership within 45 days after the end of each quarter. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 9 to the contrary, the expenses enumerated in this
Section 9 shall not become reimbursable out of proceeds of an Offering to the Advisor unless and until the Company has raised the minimum offering amount, if any, as provided in the prospectus for the Offering. 
 (iii) The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter Operating Expenses that,
in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “EXPENSE YEAR”) exceed (the “EXCESS AMOUNT”) the 2%/25% Guidelines for such year unless a majority of the Independent Directors determines that such excess was justified,
based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which a majority of our Independent Directors deems sufficient. If a majority of the Independent Directors does not approve such excess as being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a
fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If a majority of the Independent Directors determines such excess was justified, then within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total reimbursed Operating Expenses for
the Expense Year exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of a majority of our Independent Directors, shall send to the stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Independent
Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. The Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors. All figures used in the foregoing computation
shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. 
 10. OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR. 
 (A) GENERAL. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor
from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized

  

 13 

 
by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other
business or to render services of any kind to any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor may, with respect to any investment in which the Company or the Partnership is a participant, also render advice
and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor shall report to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates or could create a conflict of interest
between the Advisor’s obligations to the Company and the Partners and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. 
 (B) POLICY WITH RESPECT TO ALLOCATION OF INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES. Before the Advisor presents an investment opportunity
that would in its judgment be suitable for the Company or the Partnership to another Advisor-sponsored program, the Advisor shall determine in its sole discretion that the investment opportunity is more suitable for such other program than for the
Company or the Partnership based on factors such as the following: the investment objectives and criteria of each program; the cash requirements and anticipated cash flow of each program; the size of the investment opportunity; the effect of the
acquisition on diversification of each program’s investments by type of property and geographic area and, if applicable, tenant base; the policies of each program relating to leverage; the estimated income tax effects of the purchase on each
entity; the funds of each entity available for investment and the length of time such funds have been available for investment. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available that is, in the sole discretion of the Advisor, equally
suitable for the Company, the Partnership and another Advisor-sponsored program, then the Advisor may offer the other program the investment opportunity if it has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity.
The Advisor will use its reasonable efforts to fairly allocate investment opportunities in accordance with such allocation method and will promptly disclose any material deviation from such policy or the establishment of a new policy, which shall be
allowed provided (1) the Board is provided with notice of such policy at least 60 days prior to such policy becoming effective and (2) such policy provides for the reasonable allocation of investment opportunities among such programs. The
Advisor shall provide the Independent Directors with any information reasonably requested so that the Independent Directors can insure that the allocation of investment opportunities is applied fairly. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the
Advisor or an Affiliate from pursuing an investment opportunity directly rather than offering it to the Company or another Advisor-sponsored program so long as the Advisor is fulfilling its obligation to present a continuing and suitable investment
program to the Company which is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company and the Partnership. 
 11. RELATIONSHIP OF ADVISOR AND COMPANY. The Company, the Partnership and the Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make them
such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as such on either of them. 
 12. INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY. 
 (A) WORK PRODUCT. All right, title, and interest, including, without limitation, all intellectual
property rights, in or related to any services, work product, and development work

  

 14 

 
provided or performed by Advisor or Advisor’s subcontractors under or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any works of authorship, inventions, processes,
formulas, proprietary information, databases, customer lists, marketing plans, business strategies, financial information, forecasts, trademarks, services marks, brand names, documents, data, designs, ideas, concepts, technical data, and any other
work product (collectively, “Work Product”) shall vest in and be the sole and exclusive property of Company. All copyrightable Work Product performed by or for Advisor under this Agreement shall be considered works made for hire (as that
phrase is defined the United States Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 101, and used in 17 U.S.C. Section 201) and, as such, shall be owned by Company. In the event that any Work Product under this Agreement cannot be considered as a work
made for hire, Advisor hereby assigns, agrees to assign, and will cause its employees and subcontractors to assign, to Company for no additional consideration, all right, title, and interest that it may possess in such Work Product. If and to the
extent it is impossible as a matter of law to assign ownership rights, including, without limitation, intellectual property rights in any portion of the Work Product to Company, Advisor hereby grants to Company an exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual,
transferable, fully paid-up, worldwide and unlimited right to use and exploit in any possible way (including, without limitation, to modify, copy, amend, translate, further develop, prepare derivative works of, distribute and sublicense) all
intellectual property rights pertaining to the Work Product, and any portion of it, and warrants with respect to its employees and subcontractors, that they will do the same. Advisor represents and warrants that Advisor has enforceable written
agreements with all of its employees and subcontractors involved in the provision of services and work product under the Agreement to assign to Advisor ownership of work product, and the intellectual property rights therein, created in the course of
their employment or engagement. 
 (B) FURTHER ACTIONS. At Company’s request and without further
consideration, Advisor and Advisor’s successors in interest shall execute any and all powers of attorney, applications, assignments, declarations, affidavits, and any other papers or documents necessary to perfect such right, title, and
interest in Company, its successors, assigns, and legal representatives. Advisor shall not apply for the registration of rights in any of the Work Product under any local, state or federal law of the United States or any other nation and will not
oppose or object in any way to applications for registration of same by Company or Company’s designee. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as granting to Advisor any rights to the Work Product or any license to copy, adapt or take
any other action in respect of any Work Product, except on behalf of Company as provided in this Agreement. 
 (C) THIRD PARTY MATERIALS. If Advisor shall incorporate into any Work Product any materials of any third party, Advisor is responsible for obtaining, at its own expense, all rights, licenses, consents, and permissions necessary for Company
to have the fully paid up, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide and unlimited right to use and exploit in any possible way (including, without limitation, to modify, copy, amend, translate, further develop, prepare derivative works of, distribute and
sublicense) the third party materials in connection with the Work Product, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and to sublicense these rights to others. 
 13. TERM; TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. 
 (A)
TERM. This Agreement shall continue in force until the first anniversary of the Effective Date, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon mutual

  

 15 

 
consent of the parties. The Company, acting through the Board, will evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing the Agreement, and each such renewal shall be for a term of no
more than one year. 
 (B) TERMINATION BY EITHER PARTY. 
 (i) BY EITHER PARTY. This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice without Cause or penalty,
by either party (if by the Company, upon approval of a majority of the Independent Directors). 
 (ii) BY THE COMPANY. At the sole option of the Company, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company immediately, subject to the 60-day cure period, for Cause due to a material breach of this Agreement, upon written notice of termination
from the Board of Directors to the Advisor that the Company has Cause to terminate this Agreement. 
 (iii) BY THE ADVISOR. At the sole option of the Advisor, this Agreement shall be terminated by the Advisor immediately, subject to the 60-day cure period, for “Good Reason” due to a material breach of this Agreement, upon written
notice of termination from the Advisor to the Company that the Advisor has Good Reason to terminate this Agreement. 
 (iv) SURVIVAL. The provisions of Section 12 and Sections 15 through 27 shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 14. ASSIGNMENT TO AN AFFILIATE. This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors. The
Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Board. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company or the Partnership without the consent of the Advisor, except in
the case of an assignment by the Company or the Partnership to a corporation or other organization which is a successor to all of the assets, rights and obligations of the Company or the Partnership, as the case may be, in which case such successor
organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Company and the Partnership is bound by this Agreement. 
 15. PAYMENTS TO AND DUTIES OF ADVISOR UPON TERMINATION. Payments to the Advisor pursuant to this Section 15 shall be subject to the 2%/25% Guidelines to the extent applicable.

 (A) After the Termination Date, the Advisor shall not be entitled to compensation for further services
hereunder except it shall be entitled to receive from the Company within 30 days after the effective date of such termination all unpaid reimbursements of expenses and all earned but unpaid fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this
Agreement; and 
 (B) The Advisor shall promptly upon termination: 
 (i) pay over to the Company all money collected and held for the account of the Company pursuant to this
Agreement, after deducting any accrued compensation and

  

 16 

 
reimbursement for its expenses to which it is then entitled; 
 (ii) deliver to the Board a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last
accounting furnished to the Board; 
 (iii) deliver to the Board all assets, including
Properties, and documents of the Company then in the custody of the Advisor; and 
 (iv)
cooperate with the Company to provide an orderly management transition. 
 16. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY.
The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder,
and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, provided that the Company shall not indemnify and hold harmless the
Advisor or its Affiliates unless all of the following conditions are met: 
 (i) The Advisor or
its Affiliates has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best interests of the Company. 
 (ii) The Advisor or its Affiliates was acting on behalf of or performing services for the Company. 
 (iii) Such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the Advisor or its Affiliates.

 (iv) Such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of Net Assets
and not from the Stockholders. 
 17. INDEMNIFICATION BY ADVISOR. The Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company from contract or other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys’ fees, to the extent that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by
insurance and are incurred by reason of the Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, willful misfeasance, misconduct, or reckless disregard of its duties, but the Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to
follow advice or recommendation given by the Advisor. 
 18. NOTICES. Any notice, report or other communication
required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing unless some other method of giving such notice, report or other communication is required by the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, or accepted by the party to whom it is given, and
shall be given by being delivered by hand or by overnight mail or other overnight delivery service to the addresses set forth herein:
