employees and agents of the Manager and its Affiliates may serve as directors, officers, agents, nominees or signatories for any Company
Entity, to the extent permitted by their respective Governing Instruments or by any resolutions duly adopted by the Board, the Operating
Partnership or such Company Entity. When executing documents or otherwise acting in such capacities for any Company Entity, such Persons
shall indicate in what capacity they are executing on behalf of such Company Entity. Without limiting the foregoing, while this Agreement
is in effect, the Manager will provide the Company with a management team, including a president, chief financial officer and secretary,
along with appropriate support personnel, to provide the management services to be provided by the Manager to the Company Entities hereunder,
who shall devote such of their time to the management of the Company as necessary and appropriate, commensurate with the level of activity
of the Company from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the officers or employees of the Manager or its Affiliates will
be dedicated exclusively to the Company.

 

    10

     

    

 

(j)            The
Manager, at its sole cost and expense, shall at all times during the term of this Agreement maintain reasonable and customary “errors
and omissions” insurance coverage and other customary insurance coverage in respect to its obligations and activities under, or
pursuant to, this Agreement, naming BHM and the Operating Partnership as additional insureds.

 

(k)           The
Manager, at its sole cost and expense, shall provide such third party internal audit, compliance and control services as may be required
for the Company to comply with applicable law (including the Securities Act and Exchange Act), regulation (including SEC regulations)
and the rules and requirements of the applicable Securities Exchange and as otherwise reasonably requested by the Company or the
Board from time to time.

 

(l)            The
Manager acknowledges receipt of BHM’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Policy on Insider Trading (the “Conduct Policies”)
and agrees to require any Persons who provide services to the Company to comply with such Conduct Policies in the performance of such
services hereunder or such comparable policies as shall in substance hold such Persons to at least the standards of conduct set forth
in the Conduct Policies.

 

(m)          The
Manager, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain any required registration of the Manager or any Affiliate with the SEC under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or with any state securities authority in any state in which the Manager or its Affiliate
is required to be registered as an investment advisor under applicable state securities laws.

 

Section 3. Additional Activities of the Manager; Non-Solicitation;
Restrictions.

 

(a)            Except
as provided in the last sentence of this Section 3(a) and/or the Investment Guidelines nothing in this Agreement shall
(i) prevent the Manager or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors or employees, from engaging in other businesses or from rendering
services of any kind to any other Person or entity, whether or not the investment objectives or policies of any such other Person or entity
are similar to those of the Company; provided, however, that the Manager shall devote sufficient resources to the Company’s
business to discharge its obligations to the Company Entities under this Agreement; or (ii) in any way bind or restrict the Manager
or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors or employees from buying, selling or trading any securities or commodities for their own
accounts or for the account of others for whom the Manager or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors or employees may be acting. While
information and recommendations supplied to the Company shall, in the Manager’s reasonable and good faith judgment, be appropriate
under the circumstances and in light of the investment objectives and policies of the Company, they may be different from the information
and recommendations supplied by the Manager or any Affiliate of the Manager to others. The Company shall be entitled to equitable treatment
under the circumstances in receiving information, recommendations and any other services, but the Company recognizes that it is not entitled
to receive preferential treatment as compared with the treatment given by the Manager or any Affiliate of the Manager to others. The Company
shall have the benefit of the Manager’s best judgment and effort in rendering services hereunder and, in furtherance of the foregoing,
the Manager shall not undertake activities that, in its good faith judgment, will adversely affect the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement.

 

(b)            The
Manager shall report to the Board any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates or
could create a conflict of interest between the Manager’s obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any
other Person. If the Manager or any of its Affiliates sponsored any other investment program with similar investment objectives to the
Company that has investment funds available at the same time as the Company, the Manager shall inform the Board of the method to be applied
by the Manager in allocating investment opportunities among the Company and competing investment entities and shall provide regular updates
to the Board of the investment opportunities provided by the Manager to competing programs in order for the Board (including the Independent
Directors) to evaluate that the Manager is allocating such opportunities in accordance with such method.

 

    11

     

    

 

Section 4.
Bank Accounts.

 

At the direction of the Board, the Manager may
establish and maintain one or more bank accounts in the name of any Company Entity, and may collect and deposit into any such account
or accounts, and disburse funds from any such account or accounts, under such terms and conditions as the Board may approve; and the Manager
shall from time to time render appropriate accountings of such collections and payments to the Board and, upon request, to the Company’s
auditors.

 

Section 5.
Records; Confidentiality.

 

(a)            The
Manager shall maintain appropriate books of accounts and records relating to services performed hereunder, and such books of account and
records shall be accessible for inspection by representatives of the Company Entities at any time during normal business hours. The Manager
shall keep confidential any and all non-public information, written or oral, obtained by it in connection with the services rendered hereunder
(“Confidential Information”) and shall not use Confidential Information except in furtherance of its duties under this
Agreement or disclose Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any Person other than (i) to its Affiliates, officers, directors,
employees, agents, representatives or advisors who need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of rendering services hereunder,
(ii) to appraisers, financing sources and others in the ordinary course of the Company’s business ((i) and (ii) collectively,
 “Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties”), (iii) in connection with any governmental or regulatory filings of the
Company or filings with the NYSE, NYSE American, or other applicable Securities Exchange or market, or disclosure or presentations to
Company investors (subject to compliance with Regulation FD), (iv) to governmental officials having jurisdiction over the Company,
(v) as requested by law or legal process to which the Manager or any Person to whom disclosure is permitted hereunder is a party,
or (vi) with the consent of the Company. The Manager agrees to inform each of its Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties of the non-public
nature of the Confidential Information and to obtain agreement from such Persons to treat such Confidential Information in accordance
with the terms hereof.

 

(b)            Nothing
herein shall prevent the Manager from disclosing Confidential Information (i) upon the order of any court or administrative agency,
(ii) upon the request or demand of, or pursuant to any law or regulation to, any regulatory agency or authority, (iii) to the
extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, or (iv) to its legal counsel or independent auditors;
provided, however that with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), it is agreed that, so long as not legally prohibited, the Manager
will provide the Company with prompt written notice of such order, request or demand so that the Company may seek, at its sole expense,
an appropriate protective order and/or waive the Manager’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, failing the entry
of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Manager is required to disclose Confidential Information, the Manager
may disclose only that portion of such information that is legally required without liability hereunder; provided, that the Manager
agrees to exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, each of the following shall be deemed to be excluded from the provisions of this Section 5: any
Confidential Information that (A) is available to the public from a source other than the Manager, (B) is released in writing
by the Company to the public (except to the extent exempt under Regulation FD) or to persons who are not under similar obligation
of confidentiality to the Company, or (C) is obtained by the Manager from a third party where such disclosure, to the best of the
Manager’s knowledge, does not constitute a breach by such third party of an obligation of confidence with respect to the Confidential
Information disclosed.

 

    12

     

    

 

(d)            The
provisions of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year;
provided that the parties will maintain trade secrets of the other party identified in writing as trade secrets, and which in fact
constitute trade secrets, for a period of no longer than five (5) years thereafter.

 

Section 6.
Compensation.

 

(a)            For
the services rendered under this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Base Management Fee and the Incentive Fee to the Manager. The Manager
will not receive any compensation for the period prior to the Distribution Date other than expenses incurred and reimbursed pursuant to
Section 7 hereof.

 

(b)            The
parties acknowledge that the Base Management Fee is intended to compensate the Manager for advisory services and certain general management
services rendered under this Agreement.

 

(c)            The
Base Management Fee shall be payable in arrears, in quarterly installments commencing with the quarter in which this Agreement is executed.
If applicable, the initial and final installments of the Base Management Fee shall be pro-rated based on the number of days during the
initial and final quarters, respectively, that this Agreement is in effect. The Base Management Fee shall be promptly delivered to the
Company. The Company will be obligated to pay each quarterly installment of the Base Management Fee calculated for that quarter within
five (5) Business Days after delivery to the Company of the written statement of the Manager setting forth the computation of the
Base Management Fee for such quarter. One half of each quarterly installment of the Base Management Fee will be payable in C-LTIP Units.
The remainder of the Base Management Fee shall be payable in cash or C-LTIP Units, at the election of the Board. The number of C-LTIP
Units payable as the Base Management Fee to be issued to the Manager will be calculated in accordance with Section 6(f) in the
same manner as the number of C-LTIP Units calculated for the Incentive Fee.

 

(d)            The
Incentive Fee shall be payable in arrears, in quarterly installments commencing with the quarter in which this Agreement is executed.
The Manager shall compute each quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee within forty-five (45) days after the end of the calendar
quarter with respect to which such installment is payable. A copy of the computations made by the Manager to calculate such installment
shall thereafter promptly be delivered to the Board and, upon such delivery, payment of such installment of the Incentive Fee shown therein
shall be due and payable no later than the date which is five (5) Business Days after the date of delivery to the Board of such computations.
For purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee during the first 12 months after completion of the Distribution, AFFO will be determined
by annualizing the applicable period following completion of the Distribution.

 

(e)            Each
quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee shall be allocated and payable as follows:

 

(i)             fifty
percent (50%) of the Incentive Fee will be payable in C-LTIP Units; and

 

(ii)            the
remainder will be payable in cash or in C-LTIP Units, at the election of the Board.

 

(f)            The
number of C-LTIP Units payable as the Incentive Fee to be issued to the Manager will be equal to the dollar amount of the portion of the
quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee payable in such C-LTIP Units, divided by a value determined as follows:

 

(i)             if
the Company Common Stock is traded on a Securities Exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the
Company Common Stock on such exchange on the five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the quarterly installment of the Incentive
Fee is paid;

 

(ii)            if
the Company Common Stock is not traded on a Securities Exchange but is actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to
be the average of the closing bids or sales prices, as applicable, on the five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the quarterly
installment of the Incentive Fee is paid; and

 

    13

     

    

 

(iii)           if
the Company Common Stock is neither traded on a Securities Exchange nor actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be the fair
market value thereof, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board (including a majority of the Independent Directors).

 

(g)            If
at any time the Manager shall, in connection with a determination of the value of the Company Common Stock made by the Board pursuant
to Section 6(f)(iii) hereof, (i) dispute such determination in good faith by more than five percent (5%), and (ii) such
dispute cannot be resolved between the Independent Directors and the Manager within ten (10) Business Days after the Manager provides
written notice to the Company of such dispute (the “Valuation Notice”), then the matter shall be resolved by an independent
appraiser of recognized standing selected jointly by the Independent Directors and the Manager within not more than twenty (20) days
after the Valuation Notice. In the event the Independent Directors and the Manager cannot agree with respect to such selection within
the aforesaid twenty (20) day time-frame, the Independent Directors shall select one such independent appraiser and the Manager shall
select one independent appraiser within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the twenty (20) day period, with one
additional such appraiser (the “Last Appraiser”) to be selected by the appraisers so designated within five (5) Business
Days after their selection. Any valuation decision made by the Last Appraiser shall be deemed final and binding upon the Board and the
Manager and shall be delivered to the Manager and the Board within not more than fifteen (15) days after the selection of the Last
Appraiser. The expenses of the appraisal shall be paid by the party with the estimate that deviated the furthest from the final valuation
decision made by the independent appraisers.

 

Section 7.
Expenses of the Company.

 

(a)            Except
as otherwise set forth in Section 7(b)(iv) hereof with respect to the costs of legal, tax, accounting, consulting, auditing
and other similar services rendered for the Company as specified therein, which costs shall be the expense of the Company, the Manager
shall be responsible for the expenses related to any and all personnel of the Manager and its Affiliates who provide services to the Company
Entities pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, salaries, bonus and other wages, payroll taxes and the cost of employee
benefit plans of such personnel, and costs of insurance with respect to such personnel; provided, however, that the Manager shall
not be responsible for any such expenses payable subsequent to the Distribution Date to the extent (and only to such extent) that such
expenses were incurred or otherwise attributable to a time period preceding the Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any Equity
Incentive Plan of BHM or the Operating Partnership in which any person referred to above participates shall be excluded from the operation
of this Section 7(a) and will thus not be an expense of the Manager.

 

(b)            The
Company shall pay (or cause to be paid) all of the costs and expenses of each Company Entity and shall reimburse the Manager or its Affiliates
for documented expenses of the Manager and its Affiliates incurred on behalf of any Company Entity that are reasonably necessary for the
performance by the Manager of its duties and functions hereunder, which may include the Company’s pro rata portion of rent, telephone,
utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Manager and its Affiliates required
for the Company’s operations, provided, that such expenses are in amounts no greater than those that would be payable to
third-party professionals or consultants engaged to perform such services pursuant to agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis,
and excepting only those expenses that are specifically the responsibility of the Manager pursuant to Section 7(a) of
this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is specifically agreed that the following costs and expenses of the

of legal, tax, accounting, consulting, auditing and other similar services rendered for the Company by providers retained by the Manager
or, if provided by the Manager’s personnel, in amounts which are no greater than those which would be payable to outside professionals
or consultants engaged to perform such services pursuant to agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis. For the avoidance of
doubt, any Equity Incentive Plan of BHM or the Operating Partnership in which any person referred to in Section 7(a) above participates
shall be included in the operation of this Section 7(b)(iv);

 

(v)            the

(xviii)       expenses
connected with the payments of interest, dividends or distributions in cash or any other form authorized or caused to be made by the Board
to or on account of holders of the securities of any Company Entity, including, without limitation, in connection with any dividend reinvestment
plan;

 

(xix)          any
judgment or settlement of pending or threatened proceedings (whether civil, criminal or otherwise) against any Company Entity, or against
any trustee, director, partner, member or officer of such Company Entity in his capacity as such for which any Company Entity is required
to indemnify such trustee, director, partner, member or officer pursuant to the applicable Governing Instruments or any agreement
or other instrument or by any court or governmental agency; and

 

(xx)           all
other expenses actually incurred by the Manager (except as otherwise specified herein) that are reasonably necessary for the performance
by the Manager of its duties and functions under this Agreement.

 

(c)            Costs
and expenses incurred by the Manager on behalf of the Company shall be reimbursed monthly to the Manager. The Manager shall prepare a

Days after the receipt of the written statement without demand, deduction, offset or delay. Cost and expense reimbursement to the Manager
shall be subject to adjustment at the end of each calendar year in connection with the annual audit of the Company. The provisions of
this Section 7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement to the extent such expenses have previously
been incurred or are incurred in connection with such expiration or termination.

 

Section 8.
Limits of the Manager’s Responsibility.

 

(a)            The
Manager assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith and shall
not be responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendations of the Manager, including
as set forth in the Investment Guidelines. The Manager, its officers, members, managers, directors, personnel, Affiliates and any Person
providing sub-advisory services to the Manager (each, a “Manager Indemnified Party”), will not be liable to any Company
Entity or any of the stockholders, partners, members or other holders of equity interests of any Company Entity for any acts or omissions
by any Manager Indemnified Party performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, except by reason of any act or omission
on the part of such Manager Indemnified Party constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their
duties under this Agreement as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or those incurred in
connection with the Manager’s proper release of the Company’s money or other property.

 

    16

     

    

 

(b)            The
Company shall, to the full extent lawful, indemnify and hold harmless each Manager Indemnified Party, with respect to all expenses, losses,
damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively,
 “Losses”) in respect of or arising from any acts or omissions of such Manager Indemnified Party not constituting bad
faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence, reckless disregard of duties of such Manager Indemnified Party, performed in good faith in
accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or
those incurred in connection with the Manager’s proper release of the Company’s money or other property. In addition, the
Company shall advance funds to a Manager Indemnified Party for legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred as a result of any claim,
suit, action or proceeding for which indemnification is being sought pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided, that such
Manager Indemnified Party undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the Company, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon,
if it shall ultimately be determined that such Manager Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as provided
herein in connection with such claim, suit, action or proceeding.

 

(c)            The
Manager shall, to the full extent lawful, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, personnel, agents and Affiliates
(each, a “Company Indemnified Party,” and collectively with a Manager Indemnified Party, each an “Indemnified
Party”) with respect to all Losses in respect of or arising from (i) any acts or omissions of the Manager constituting
bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of the Manager under this Agreement, or (ii) any
claims by the Manager’s personnel relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by the Manager.

 

(d)            In
case any such claim, suit, action or proceeding (a “Claim”) is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of
which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant hereto, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice
thereof to the indemnifying party, which notice shall include all documents and information in the possession of or under the control
of such Indemnified Party reasonably necessary for the evaluation and/or defense of such Claim and shall specifically state that indemnification
for such Claim is being sought under this Section 8; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to
so notify the indemnifying party shall not limit or affect such Indemnified Party’s rights other than pursuant to this Section 8.
Upon receipt of such notice of Claim (together with such documents and information from such Indemnified Party), the indemnifying party
shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith defend any such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party,
which counsel may, without limiting the rights of such Indemnified Party pursuant to the next sentence of this Section 8(d),
also represent the indemnifying party in such investigation, action or proceeding. In the alternative, such Indemnified Party may elect
to conduct the defense of the Claim, if (i) such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the conduct of its defense by the indemnifying
party could be materially prejudicial to its interests, (ii) the indemnifying party refuses to assume such defense (or fails to give
written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of Claim that the indemnifying party assumes
such defense), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, to defend
the Claim in good faith. The indemnifying party may settle any Claim against such Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party’s
consent, provided (i) such settlement is without any Losses whatsoever to such Indemnified Party, (ii) the settlement does not
include or require any admission of liability or culpability by such Indemnified Party and (iii) the indemnifying party obtains an
effective written release of liability for such Indemnified Party from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made,
which release must be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, and a dismissal with prejudice with respect to all claims made
by the party against such Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. The applicable Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate
with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the defense or settlement of
any Claim in accordance with the terms hereof. If such Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Section 8 to elect to
defend such Claim by counsel of its own choosing and so elects, then the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any good faith settlement
of such Claim entered into by such Indemnified Party. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Indemnified Party may
pay or settle any Claim and seek reimbursement therefor under this Section 8.

 

    17

     

    

 

(e)            Any
Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall seek recovery under any insurance policies by which such Indemnified Party
is covered and any Indemnified Party shall obtain the written consent of the indemnifying party prior to entering into any compromise
or settlement which would result in an obligation of such indemnifying party to indemnify such Indemnified Party; provided, however,
that the possibility of recovery under any such insurance policies shall not preclude an Indemnified Party from seeking indemnification
pursuant to this Agreement. If such Indemnified Party shall actually recover any amounts under any applicable insurance policies, it shall
offset the net proceeds so received against any amounts owed by the indemnifying party by reason of the indemnity provided hereunder or,
if all such amounts shall have been paid by the indemnifying party in full prior to the actual receipt of such net insurance proceeds,
it shall pay over such proceeds (up to the amount of indemnification paid by the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party) to the
indemnifying party. If the amounts in respect of which indemnification is sought arise out of the conduct of the business and affairs
of the Company or any Subsidiary and also of any other Person or entity for which the Indemnified Party hereunder was then acting in a
similar capacity, the amount of the indemnification to be provided by the Company may be limited to the Company Parties’ proportionate
share thereof if so determined by the Company in good faith.

 

(f)            The
provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 9.
No Joint Venture.

 

The parties to this Agreement are not partners
or joint venturers with each other and nothing herein shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability
as such on any of them.

 

Section 10.
Term; Renewal; Nonrenewal Event; Internalization.

 

(a)            This
Agreement shall become effective on the Distribution Date and shall continue in operation, unless terminated in accordance with the terms
hereof, until the first anniversary of the Distribution Date (the “Initial Term”). After the Initial Term, this Agreement
shall be deemed renewed automatically each year for an additional one-year period (an “Automatic Renewal Term”) unless
the Company or the Manager elects not to renew this Agreement in accordance with Section 10(b) or Section 10(d),
respectively, the Company elects to internalize management pursuant to Section 10(f)(i) or this Agreement is earlier
terminated in accordance with Section 11.

 

(b)            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no later than 180 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any
Automatic Renewal Term, the Company may deliver written notice to the Manager informing it of the Company’s intention to decline
to renew this Agreement (the “Nonrenewal Notice”) if a Nonrenewal Event may have occurred. A Nonrenewal Event shall
occur upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors that (1) there has been unsatisfactory performance
by the Manager that is materially detrimental to the Company Entities taken as a whole or (2) the Base Management Fee and Incentive
Fee payable to the Manager are not, taken as a whole, in accordance with then-current market rates charged by asset management companies
rendering services similar to those rendered by the Manager (“Market Rates”), subject to Section 10(c),
and only after reasonable investigation by the Independent Directors as to the rates charged by similarly situated managers. If a Nonrenewal
Event has occurred, the Company shall pay the Manager the Termination Fee before or on the last day of the Initial Term or such Automatic
Renewal Term, as the case may be (the “Effective Termination Date”). The Company may terminate this Agreement for cause
pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof even after a Nonrenewal Notice and, in such case, no Termination Fee shall be payable.

 

    18

     

    

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the provisions of subsection (b) above, if the reason for the Nonrenewal Event specified in the Company’s Nonrenewal
Notice is that two-thirds of the Independent Directors have determined that the Base Management Fee and the Incentive Fee payable to the
Manager are not, taken as a whole, in accordance with Market Rates, there shall not have occurred a Nonrenewal Event in the event that
there is a Board-Approved Structure (as defined below). If the Manager wishes to continue to perform its duties during the Automatic Renewal
Term that would commence upon the expiration of the Initial Term or then current Automatic Renewal Term (and to assert that a Nonrenewal
Event shall not be deemed to have occurred), the Manager must first deliver to the Company, not less than 120 days prior to the pending
Effective Termination Date, written notice (a “Notice of Proposal to Negotiate”) of its intention to renegotiate the
Base Management Fee and/or the Incentive Fee. Thereupon, the Company and the Manager shall endeavor to negotiate the Base Management Fee
and/or the Incentive Fee in good faith. Provided that the Company and the Manager agree to a revised Base Management Fee, Incentive
Fee or other compensation structure (the “Agreed Structure”) within sixty (60) days following the Company’s receipt
of the Notice of Proposal to Negotiate, and at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors agree that the rates to be paid to the Manager
pursuant to the Agreed Structure are at or below Market Rates, taken as a whole (a “Board-Approved Structure”), the
Nonrenewal Notice from the Company shall be deemed of no force and effect, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
on the terms stated herein, except for any changes required to effectuate the Board-Approved Structure. The Company and the Manager agree
to execute and deliver an amendment to this Agreement setting forth such revisions promptly after the approval of the Board-Approved Structure,
with an effective date of what would have been the Effective Termination Date. In the event that the Company and the Manager are unable
to agree on an Agreed Structure during such sixty (60) day period, this Agreement shall terminate on the Effective Termination Date and
the Company shall be obligated to pay the Manager the Termination Fee upon the Effective Termination Date as a condition of such termination
action being effective.

 

(d)            No
later than 180 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Automatic Renewal Term, the Manager may deliver written notice
to the Company informing it of the Manager’s intention to decline to renew this Agreement, whereupon this Agreement shall not be
renewed and extended and this Agreement shall terminate effective on the anniversary date of this Agreement next following the delivery
of such notice. The Company is not required to pay to the Manager the Termination Fee if the Manager declines to renew this Agreement
pursuant to this Section 10(d).

 

(e)            Except
as set forth in this Section 10, a nonrenewal of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without any further
liability or obligation of either party to the other, except as provided in Section 5, Section 7, Section 8
and Section 14 of this Agreement.

 

(f)

 

(i)             Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, upon the determination by at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors that, upon an internalization
of the Company’s management, AFFO per share would be greater than AFFO per share immediately prior to such internalization, the
Company may internalize, with consideration upon such internalization being paid by the Company to the Manager (the “Internalization
Consideration”) equal to 2.75 times the sum of the Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee, in each case, earned by the Manager
during the 12-month period immediately preceding such internalization, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal
quarter before the date of the internalization.

 

(ii)            If
the Company elects to internalize management pursuant to Section 10(f)(i), then either the Manager or the Company may further
elect to structure such internalization as an acquisition of all of the membership interests in the Manager for which the acquisition
consideration shall be equal to the amount of the Internalization Consideration (and no separate Internalization Consideration would be
paid), which may be structured as a contribution of the Manager or the Manager’s assets to the Operating Partnership in exchange
for units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and/or cash, provided that at least
50% of the value of the Internalization Consideration will be satisfied in OP Units, or other tax-efficient transaction as agreed to by
the Manager and the Company. To the extent of an election under this Section 10(f)(ii), the parties shall negotiate in good
faith to prepare an acquisition agreement and related documents containing customary, standard and commercially reasonable representations,
warranties, covenants and indemnities. The consummation of an acquisition of the Manager pursuant to this Section 10(f)(ii) shall
be subject to the prior approval of (1) a majority of the Independent Directors, and (2) the Company’s stockholders as
required under Maryland law or the rules of the applicable Securities Exchange.

 

    19

     

    

 

Section 11.
Termination for Cause.

 

(a)            The
Company may terminate this Agreement effective upon 30 days’ prior written notice of termination from the Company to the Manager
(a “Cause Termination Notice”), without payment of any Termination Fee, if (i) the Manager, its agents or assignees
breaches any material provision of this Agreement and such breach shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof
specifying such breach and requesting that the same be remedied in such 30-day period (or 45 days after written notice of such breach
if the Manager takes steps to cure such breach within 30 days of the written notice), (ii) there is the commencement of any proceeding
relating to the Manager’s Bankruptcy or insolvency, including an order for relief in an involuntary bankruptcy case or the Manager
authorizing or filing a voluntary bankruptcy petition, (iii) any Manager Change of Control which a majority of the Independent Directors
determines is materially detrimental to the Company Entities taken as a whole, (iv) the Manager is unable to perform its obligations
under this Agreement; (v) the dissolution of the Manager, or (vi) the Manager commits fraud against the Company, misappropriates
or embezzles funds of the Company, or acts, or fails to act, in a manner constituting gross negligence, or acts in a manner constituting
bad faith or willful misconduct, in the performance of its duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that if any of the actions
or omissions described in this clause (vi) are caused by an employee and/or officer of the Manager or one of its Affiliates and the
Manager takes all necessary and appropriate action against such person and cures the damage caused by such actions or omissions within
30 days of the Manager’s actual knowledge of its commission or omission, the Company shall not have the right to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 11(a)(vi) and any Cause Termination Notice previously given in reliance on this clause
(vi) automatically shall be deemed to have been rescinded and nugatory.

 

(b)            The
Manager may terminate this Agreement effective upon 60 days’ prior written notice of termination to the Company in the event
that the Company shall default in the performance of any material term, condition or covenant contained in this Agreement and such default
shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof specifying such default and requesting that the same be remedied in
such 30 day period. The Company is required to pay to the Manager the Termination Fee if the termination of this Agreement is made pursuant
to this Section 11(b).

 

(c)            The
Manager may terminate this Agreement if the Company becomes required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company
Act, with such termination deemed to occur immediately before such event, in which case the Company shall not be required to pay the Termination
Fee.

 

Section 12.
Action Upon Termination.

 

From and after the effective date of termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 10 or 11 of this Agreement, the Manager shall not be entitled to compensation for further
services hereunder, but shall be paid all compensation accruing to the date of termination and, if (x) terminated pursuant to Section 11(b) hereof
or (y) not renewed pursuant to (i) Section 10(b) hereof (subject to Section 10(c) hereof),
the Termination Fee or (ii) Section 10(f) (subject to Section 10(f)(ii) hereof), the Internalization
Consideration. Upon any such termination or nonrenewal, the Manager shall forthwith:

 

(a)            after
deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses that have been submitted to the Company prior to the effective date
of termination, pay over to each Company Entity all money collected and held for the account of such Company Entity pursuant to this Agreement;

 

    20

     

    

 

(b)            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 with respect to the Company Entities;

 

(c)            deliver
to the Board all property and documents of the Company Entities then in the custody of the Manager; and

 

(d)            cooperate
with the Company Entities to provide an orderly management transition, including, but not limited to, the transition to a new manager
of control of the assets of the Company Entities.

 

Section 13.
Assignments.

 

(a)            Assignments
by the Manager. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Manager without the prior written consent of a majority of the Independent
Directors, except to an Affiliate of the Manager, in which case such Affiliate shall be bound under this Agreement and by the terms of
such assignment in the same manner as the Manager is bound under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may, without
the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors, delegate to one or more of its Affiliates the performance of any of its responsibilities
hereunder so long as it remains liable for any such Affiliate’s performance. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude
any pledge, hypothecation or other transfer of any amounts payable to the Manager under this Agreement.

 

(b)            Assignments
by the Company. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of the Manager, except in the
case of assignment by the Company to another REIT or other organization which is a successor (by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets,
or other transaction) to the Company, in which case such successor organization shall be bound under this Agreement and by the terms of
such assignment in the same manner as the Company is bound under this Agreement.

 

Section 14. Release of Money or Other Property Upon Written
Request.

 

The
Manager agrees that any money or other property of the Company Entities held by the Manager shall be held by the Manager as custodian
for the Company, and the Manager’s records shall be appropriately and clearly marked to reflect the ownership of such money or other
property by the Company. Upon the receipt by the Manager of a written request signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company requesting
the Manager to release to the Company any money or other property then held by the Manager for the account of the Company under this Agreement,
then subject to the Manager’s right to offset pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof, the Manager shall release such money or
other property to the Company within a reasonable period of time, but in no event later than 60 days following such request. Upon
delivery of such money or other property to the Company, the Manager shall not be liable to the Company, the Board, BHM’s stockholders
or Operating Partnership’s partners or any of the directors or equity holders of any subsidiary of the Company for any acts
or omissions by the Company in connection with the money or other property released to the Company in accordance with this Section 14.
The Company shall indemnify the Manager Indemnified Parties against any and all Losses which arise in connection with the Manager’s
proper release of such money or other property to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 14. Indemnification
pursuant to this provision shall be in addition to any right of the Manager Indemnified Parties to indemnification under Section 8
of this Agreement.

(a)              
Issuances of Additional Partnership Units.

 

(i)                
General. As of the effective date of this Agreement, the Partnership shall have two classes of Partnership Units, entitled
 “Common Units” and “LTIP Units.” The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership
to issue additional Partnership Interests, in the form of Partnership Units, for any Partnership purpose at any time or from time to time
to the Partners (including the General Partner) or to other Persons for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be
established by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, all without the approval of any Limited Partners. The General
Partner’s determination that consideration is adequate shall be conclusive insofar as the adequacy of consideration relates to whether
the Partnership Units are validly issued and fully paid. Any additional Partnership Units issued thereby may be issued in one or more
classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other
special rights, powers and duties, including rights, powers and duties senior to the then-outstanding Partnership Units held by the Limited
Partners, all as shall be determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion and without the approval of any Limited
Partner, subject to Delaware law, including, without limitation, (i) the allocations of items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction
and credit to each such class or series of Partnership Units; (ii) the right of each such class or series of Partnership Units to share
in Partnership distributions; and (iii) the rights of each such class or series of Partnership Units upon dissolution and liquidation
of the Partnership; provided, however, that no additional Partnership Units shall be issued to the General Partner (or any direct or indirect
wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner, including without limitation REIT Holdings) unless:

 

(1) (A) the additional
Partnership Units are issued in connection with an issuance of REIT Shares of or other interests in the General Partner, which shares
or interests have designations, preferences and other rights, all such that the economic interests are substantially similar to the designations,
preferences and other rights of the additional Partnership Units issued to the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly owned
Subsidiary of the General Partner) by the Partnership in accordance with this Section 4.02 and (B) the General Partner (or any direct
or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner) shall make a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in an amount equal to
the cash consideration received by the General Partner from the issuance of such REIT Shares or other interests in the General Partner;

 

    4

     

    

 

(2) (A) the
additional Partnership Units are issued in connection with an issuance of REIT Shares of or other interests in the General Partner
pursuant to a taxable share dividend declared by the General Partner, which shares or interests have designations, preferences and
other rights, all such that the economic interests are substantially similar to the designations, preferences and other rights of
the additional Partnership Units issued to the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General
Partner) by the Partnership in accordance with this Section 4.02, (B) if the General Partner allows the holders of its REIT Shares
to elect whether to receive such dividend in REIT Shares, other interests of the General Partner or cash, the Partnership will give
the Limited Partners (excluding the General Partner or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the General Partner) the same election
to elect to receive (I) Partnership Units or cash or, (II) at the election of the General Partner, REIT Shares or cash, and (C) if
the Partnership issues additional Partnership Units pursuant to this Section 4.02(a)(i)(2), then an amount of income equal to the
value of the Partnership Units received will be allocated to those holders of Common Units that elect to receive additional
Partnership Units;

 

(3) the additional Partnership
Units are issued in exchange for property owned by the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General
Partner) with a fair market value, as determined by the General Partner, in good faith, equal to the value of the Partnership Units;

 

(4) Common Units are
issued to all Partners owning Common Units or LTIP Units in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; or

 

(5) such Partnership
Units are issued pursuant to Section 4.11.

 

Without limiting the
foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units for less than fair market value,
so long as the General Partner concludes in good faith that such issuance is in the best interests of the General Partner and the Partnership.

 

(ii)             
Upon Issuance of Additional Securities. The General Partner shall not issue any additional REIT Shares or Rights (other
than (A) REIT Shares and Rights issued in connection with an exchange pursuant to Section 8.04, (B) Class A REIT Shares and Rights issued
upon a conversion in accordance with Section 5.2.6 of the Charter, (C) REIT Shares and Rights issued in a taxable share dividend as described
in Section 4.02(a)(i)(2), or (D) REIT Shares and Rights issued pursuant to a Separation Issuance) (collectively, “Additional
Securities”) other than to all holders of REIT Shares, unless (x) the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to
issue to the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner, including without limitation
REIT Holdings) Partnership Units or Rights having designations, preferences and other rights, all such that the economic interests are
substantially similar to those of the Additional Securities (provided that this clause (x) shall not apply in the case of any issuance
of Additional Securities that occurs following the record date for the Distribution and prior to the Distribution Effective Time (except
to the extent any proceeds from such issuance are contributed to the Partnership)), and (y) the General Partner (or any direct or indirect
wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner, including without limitation REIT Holdings) contributes the proceeds from the issuance
of such Additional Securities and from any exercise of Rights contained in such Additional Securities to the Partnership; provided, however,
that the General Partner is allowed to issue Additional Securities in connection with an acquisition of Property to be held directly
by the General Partner, but if and only if, such direct acquisition and issuance of Additional Securities have been approved by a majority
of the Independent Directors. Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized to issue Additional Securities
for less than fair market value, and the General Partner is authorized to cause the Partnership to issue to the General Partner (or any
direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner) corresponding Partnership Units, so long as (x) the General Partner
concludes in good faith that such issuance is in the best interests of the General Partner and the Partnership and (y) the General Partner
(or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner, including without limitation REIT Holdings) contributes all
proceeds from such issuance to the Partnership, including without limitation, the issuance of REIT Shares and corresponding Partnership
Units pursuant to a share purchase plan providing for purchases of REIT Shares at a discount from fair market value or pursuant to share
awards, including share options that have an exercise price that is less than the fair market value of the REIT Shares, either at the
time of issuance or at the time of exercise, and restricted or other share awards approved by the Board of Directors. For example, in
the event the General Partner issues REIT Shares for a cash purchase price and the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly
owned Subsidiary of the General Partner, including without limitation REIT Holdings) contributes all of the proceeds of such issuance
to the Partnership as required hereunder, the General Partner (or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the General Partner,
including without limitation REIT Holdings) shall be issued a number of additional Partnership Units equal to the product of (A) the
number of such REIT Shares issued by the General Partner, the proceeds of which were so contributed, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the
numerator of which is 100%, and the denominator of which is the Conversion Factor in effect on the date of such contribution.

 

    5

     

    

 

4.                 
LTIP Units. Section 4.04(a) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section
4.04(a) is inserted in its place (in each case effective as of immediately prior to the Redemption and Exchange):

 

(a)               Issuance
of LTIP Units.   The General Partner may from time to time cause the Partnership to issue LTIP Units to Persons who
provide services to the Partnership or the General Partner, for such consideration as the General Partner may determine to be
appropriate, and admit such Persons as Limited Partners. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 4.04 and the special
provisions of Sections 4.05 and 5.01(g), LTIP Units shall be treated as Common Units (and, specifically, C-LTIP Units shall be
treated as C-Common Units), with all of the rights, privileges and obligations attendant thereto. For purposes of computing the
Partners’ Percentage Interests, holders of LTIP Units shall be treated as Common Unit holders (and, specifically, holders of
C-LTIP Units shall be treated as holders of C-Common Units) and LTIP Units shall be treated as Common Units (and,
specifically, C-LTIP Units shall be treated as C-Common Units). In particular, the Partnership shall maintain at all times a
one-to-one correspondence between LTIP Units and Common Units for conversion, distribution and other purposes, including, without
limitation, complying with the following procedures:

 

(i)                
If an Adjustment Event occurs, then the General Partner shall make a corresponding adjustment to the LTIP Units to maintain a
one-for-one conversion and economic equivalence ratio between Common Units and LTIP Units. The following shall be “Adjustment
Events”: (A) the Partnership makes a distribution on all outstanding Common Units in Partnership Units, (B) the Partnership
subdivides the outstanding Common Units into a greater number of units or combines the outstanding Common Units into a smaller number
of units, or (C) the Partnership issues any Partnership Units in exchange for its outstanding Common Units by way of a reclassification
or recapitalization of its Common Units. If more than one Adjustment Event occurs, the adjustment to the LTIP Units need be made only
once using a single formula that takes into account each and every Adjustment Event as if all Adjustment Events occurred simultaneously.
For the avoidance of doubt, the following shall not be Adjustment Events: (w) the issuance of Partnership Units in a financing, reorganization,
acquisition or other similar business Common Unit Transaction, (x) the issuance of Partnership Units pursuant to any employee benefit
or compensation plan or distribution reinvestment plan, (y) the issuance of any Partnership Units to the General Partner in respect of
a capital contribution to the Partnership of proceeds from the sale of Additional Securities by the General Partner or (z) the Redemption
and Exchange. If the Partnership takes an action affecting the Common Units other than actions specifically described above as “Adjustment
Events” and in the opinion of the General Partner such action would require an adjustment to the LTIP Units to maintain the one-to-one
correspondence described above, the General Partner shall have the right to make such adjustment to the LTIP Units, to the extent permitted
by law and by any Equity Incentive Plan, in such manner and at such time as the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may determine
to be appropriate under the circumstances. If an adjustment is made to the LTIP Units, as herein provided, the Partnership shall promptly
file in the books and records of the Partnership an officer’s certificate setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of
the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest
error. Promptly after filing of such certificate, the Partnership shall mail a notice to each LTIP Unitholder setting forth the adjustment
to his or her LTIP Units and the effective date of such adjustment; and

 

    6

     

    

 

(ii)             
The LTIP Unitholders shall, when, as and if authorized and declared by the General Partner out of assets legally available for
that purpose, be entitled to receive distributions in an amount per LTIP Unit equal to the distributions per Common Unit (the “Common
Partnership Unit Distribution”), paid to holders of Common Units on such Partnership Record Date established by the General
Partner with respect to such distribution. So long as any LTIP Units are outstanding, no distributions (whether in cash or in kind) shall
be authorized, declared or paid on Common Units, unless equal distributions have been or contemporaneously are authorized, declared and
paid on the LTIP Units.

 

5.                 
Conversion of LTIP Units.

 

(a)       Section
4.05(a) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 4.05(a) is inserted in its place:

 

(a)               Subject
to the provisions of this section, an LTIP Unitholder shall have the right (the “Conversion Right”), at his or
her option, at any time to convert all or a portion of his or her Vested LTIP Units into Common Units; provided, however, that a
holder may not exercise the Conversion Right for less than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units or, if such holder holds less than
one thousand Vested LTIP Units, all of the Vested LTIP Units held by such holder. In any such conversion, Vested C-LTIP Units shall
be converted into C-Common Units and all other Vested LTIP Units shall be converted into Common Units that are not C-Common Units.
LTIP Unitholders shall not have the right to convert Unvested LTIP Units into Common Units until they become Vested LTIP Units;
provided, however, that when an LTIP Unitholder is notified of the expected occurrence of an event that will cause his or her
Unvested LTIP Units to become Vested LTIP Units, such LTIP Unitholder may give the Partnership a Conversion Notice conditioned upon
and effective as of the time of vesting and such Conversion Notice, unless subsequently revoked by the LTIP Unitholder, shall be
accepted by the Partnership subject to such condition. The General Partner shall have the right at any time to cause a conversion of
Vested LTIP Units into Common Units. In all cases, the conversion of any LTIP Units into Common Units shall be subject to the
conditions and procedures set forth in this Section 4.05.

 

    7

     

    

 

(b)       Section
4.05(b) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 4.05(b) is inserted in its place:

 

(b)                 A
holder of Vested LTIP Units may convert such LTIP Units into an equal number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Units, giving
effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 4.04. In any such conversion, Vested C-LTIP Units shall be converted
into C-Common Units and all other Vested LTIP Units shall be converted into Common Units that are not C-Common Units.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may a holder of Vested LTIP Units convert a number of Vested LTIP Units that exceeds (x)
the Economic Capital Account Balance of such Limited Partner, to the extent attributable to its ownership of LTIP Units, divided by
(y) the Common Unit Economic Balance, in each case as determined as of the effective date of conversion (the “Capital
Account Limitation”); it being understood that, in the case of the conversion of C-LTIP Units, a holder’s Capital
Account Limitation shall be determined by reference to such holder’s C-LTIP Units and not any other LTIP Units, and, in the
case of the conversion of other LTIP Units (other than C-LTIP Units), a holder’s Capital Account Limitation shall be
determined by reference to such holder’s other LTIP Units and not any C-LTIP Units. To exercise such LTIP
Unitholder’s Conversion Right, an LTIP Unitholder shall deliver a notice (a “Conversion Notice”)
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D to the Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) not less than ten nor
more than 60 days before a date (the “Conversion Date”) specified in such Conversion Notice; provided, however,
that if the General Partner has not given to the LTIP Unitholders notice of a proposed or upcoming Common Unit Transaction (as
defined in Section 4.05(f)) at least thirty (30) days before the effective date of such Common Unit Transaction, then LTIP
Unitholders shall have the right to deliver a Conversion Notice until the earlier of (x) the tenth day after such notice from the
General Partner of a Common Unit Transaction or (y) the third business day immediately preceding the effective date of such Common
Unit Transaction. A Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 12.01. Each LTIP Unitholder covenants and
agrees that all Vested LTIP Units to be converted pursuant to this Section 4.05(b) shall be free and clear of all liens.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a holder of LTIP Units may deliver a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section
8.04(a) relating to those Common Units that will be issued to such holder upon conversion of such LTIP Units into Common Units in
advance of the Conversion Date; provided, however, that the redemption of such Common Units by the Partnership shall
in no event take place until after the Conversion Date. For clarity, it is noted that the objective of this paragraph is to put an
LTIP Unitholder in a position where, if such LTIP Unitholder so wishes, the Common Units into which such LTIP Unitholder’s
Vested LTIP Units will be converted can be redeemed by the Partnership simultaneously with such conversion, with the further
consequence that, if the General Partner elects to assume the Partnership’s redemption obligation with respect to such Common
Units under Section 8.04(b) by delivering to such holder Class A REIT Shares or Class C REIT Shares, as applicable, rather than
cash, then such holder can have such Class A REIT Shares or Class C REIT Shares, as applicable, issued to him or her
simultaneously with the conversion of his or her Vested LTIP Units into Common Units. The General Partner and LTIP Unitholder shall
reasonably cooperate with each other to coordinate the timing of the events described in the foregoing sentence.

 

    8

     

    

 

(c)       Section
4.05(c) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 4.05(c) is inserted in its place:

 

(c)              
The Partnership, at any time at the election of the General Partner, may cause any number of Vested LTIP Units held by an LTIP
Unitholder to be converted (a “Forced Conversion”) into an equal number of Common Units, giving effect to all adjustments
(if any) made pursuant to Section 4.04; provided, however, that the Partnership may not cause Forced Conversion of any LTIP Units that
would not at the time be eligible for conversion at the option of such LTIP Unitholder pursuant to Section 4.05(b). In a Forced Conversion,
C-LTIP Units shall be converted to C-Common Units. To exercise its right of Forced Conversion, the Partnership shall deliver a notice
(a “Forced Conversion Notice”) in the form attached as Exhibit E to the applicable LTIP Unitholder not less
than ten nor more than sixty (60) days before the Conversion Date specified in such Forced Conversion Notice. A Forced Conversion
Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 12.01.

 

6.                 
Unit Split. Effective as of immediately prior to the Separation Transfer, Article IV of the Partnership Agreement is hereby
amended to include the following as Section 4.11 of the Partnership Agreement:

 

4.11        Unit
Split. 

 

(a)              
Initial Unit Split. Effective as of immediately prior to the Separation Transfer, each Common Unit and LTIP Unit outstanding
as of immediately prior to the Separation Transfer (after giving effect to the Redemption and Exchange) shall be split (the “Unit
Split”), such that each such Common Unit or LTIP Unit shall be converted into a number of Common Units or LTIP Units, as applicable,
equal to the Split Ratio, and Exhibit A shall be updated accordingly (it being understood that the Unit Split shall result, as of immediately
following the Distribution Effective Time, in a 1:1 ratio between the aggregate outstanding Common Units held by the General Partner and
the aggregate outstanding REIT Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including Section 4.02), following
the record date for the Distribution until the Distribution Effective Time, (i) the Partnership shall have no obligation to issue Common
Units in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares, and (ii) the fact that the number of outstanding Common Units held by the General
Partner does not equal the number of outstanding REIT Shares shall not be deemed a violation of this Agreement.

 

(b)              
Additional Unit Splits. The General Partner may from time to time, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any
other Partner, cause the Partnership to split, subdivide, reverse split, combine or reclassify any or all of the Common Units in order
to maintain a 1:1 correspondence of the number of outstanding Common Units held by the General Partner and the number of outstanding REIT
Shares. In connection therewith, the General Partner shall update Exhibit A hereto to reflect the outstanding Common Units following any
such action.

 

7.                 
Allocation of Profit and Loss. 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:

 

5.01        Allocation of Profits
and Losses. 

 

(a)               Profit.
After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.01(c), (d), and (e) hereof, Profit of the Partnership for each
fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

 

    9

     

    

 

(b)              
Loss. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.01(c), (d), and (e) hereof, Loss of the Partnership
for each fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

 

(c)              
Minimum Gain Chargeback. 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.

 

(d)              
Qualified Income Offset. 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).

 

(e)              
Capital Account Deficits. 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 shall be allocated
to such Partner in an amount necessary to offset the Loss previously allocated to each Partner under this Section 5.01(e).

 

    10

     

    

 

(f)                Special
Allocations Regarding LTIP Units. 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. 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. The “Economic Capital
Account Balance” of the LTIP Unitholders will be equal to their respective Capital Account balance to the extent
attributable to their ownership of LTIP Units; it being understood that a holder’s Economic Capital Account Balance with
respect to such holder’s C-LTIP Units shall be determined by reference to such holder’s C-LTIP Units and not any other
LTIP Units, and a holder’s Economic Capital Account Balance with respect to such other LTIP Units shall be determined by
reference to such holder’s other LTIP Units and not any C-LTIP Units. Similarly, the “Common Unit Economic
Balance” shall mean (i) the Capital Account balance of the General Partner, plus the amount of the General Partner’s
share of any Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain or Partnership Minimum Gain, in either case to the extent attributable to the
General Partner’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(f), divided by (ii) the number of
Common Units directly or indirectly owned by the General Partner. 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(f). The parties agree that the
intent of this Section 5.01(f) is to make the Capital Account balance associated with each LTIP Unit be economically equivalent to
the Capital Account balance associated with Common Units directly or indirectly owned by the General Partner (on a per-Unit
basis).

 

(g)              
Definition of Profit and Loss. “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), 5.01(d), or 5.01(e) 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.

 

(h)              
Allocations Between Transferor and Transferee. 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.

 

(i)                 Profits
Interests. LTIP Units are intended to constitute “profits interests” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Service
Revenue Procedure 93-27, 1993-2 C.B. 343, and Revenue Procedure 2001-43, 2001-2 C.B. 191, or any future Internal Revenue Service
guidance or other authority that supplements or supersedes the foregoing Revenue Procedures. 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

     

    

 

(j)                
Special Tax Allocations. Items of income, gain, loss, expense or credit resulting from a Covered Audit Adjustment shall
be allocated to the Partners in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Partnership Audit Tax Rules.

 

8.                 
Distributions. Section 5.04 of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section
5.04 is inserted in its place (in each case effective as of immediately prior to the Redemption and Exchange):

 

5.04       No
Right to Distributions in Kind. No Partner shall be entitled to demand property other than cash in connection with any distributions
by the Partnership; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the General Partner is expressly authorized,
in its sole discretion, to declare and cause the Partnership to make a non-pro rata distribution, with no other Partners receiving any
portion of such distribution, to the General Partner of 100% of the Partnership’s ownership interests in New LLC in exchange for
a redemption of all of the Preferred Units held by the General Partner and 25,210,092 Common Units held by the General Partner or a subsidiary
of the General Partner (and the General Partner shall not be required to redeem or cancel any of its capital stock in connection with
such redemption of Partnership Units held by the General Partner or a subsidiary of the General Partner) (the “Redemption and
Exchange”).

 

9.                 
Common Unit Redemption Right.

 

(a)       Section
8.04(a) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 8.04(a) is inserted in its place:

 

(a)                Subject
to Sections 8.04(b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) and the provisions of any agreements between the Partnership and one or more
Limited Partners with respect to Common Units (including any LTIP Units that are converted into Common Units) held by them,
each Limited Partner (other than the General Partner or any Subsidiary of the General Partner), shall have the right (the
 “Common Unit Redemption Right”) to require the Partnership to redeem on a Specified Redemption Date all or a
portion of the Common Units held by such Limited Partner at a redemption price equal to and in the form of the Common Redemption
Amount to be paid by the Partnership, provided that such Common Units (or the LTIP Units converted into such Common Units)
shall have been outstanding for at least one year (or such lesser time as determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute
discretion), and subject to any restriction agreed to in writing between the Redeeming Limited Partner and the Partnership or
General Partner. The Common Unit Redemption Right shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Exercise of Redemption Right in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit B delivered to the Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) by the Limited
Partner who is exercising the Common Unit Redemption Right (the “Redeeming Limited Partner”); provided, however,
that the Partnership shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, have the option, (i) with respect to a redemption of
C-Common Units, to deliver either the Cash Amount or the REIT Shares Amount applicable to
C-Common Units, or (ii) with respect to a redemption of any Common Units other than C-Common Units, to
deliver either the Cash Amount or the REIT Shares Amount applicable to Common Units other than C-Common Units; provided,
further, that the Partnership shall not be obligated to satisfy such Common Unit Redemption Right if the General Partner elects to
purchase the Common Units subject to the Notice of Redemption; and provided, further, that, subject to the terms of any agreement
between the General Partner and a Limited Partner with respect to Common Units (or any LTIP Units converted into such Common Units)
held by such Limited Partner, no Limited Partner may deliver more than two Notices of Redemption during each calendar year. A
Limited Partner may not exercise the Common Unit Redemption Right for less than one thousand (1,000) Common Units of the applicable
class or, if such Limited Partner holds less than one thousand (1,000) Common Units of the applicable class, all of the Common Units of
the applicable class held by such Limited Partner. The Redeeming Limited Partner shall have no right, with respect to any Common
Units so redeemed, to receive any distribution paid with respect to Common Units if the record date for such distribution is on or
after the Specified Redemption Date.

 

    12

     

    

 

(b)       Section
8.04(b) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 8.04(b) is inserted in its place:

 

(b)              
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.04(a), a Limited Partner that exercises the Common Unit Redemption Right shall be deemed
to have offered to sell the Common Units described in the Notice of Redemption to the General Partner, and the General Partner may, in
its sole and absolute discretion, elect to purchase directly and acquire such Common Units by paying to the Redeeming Limited Partner
either the Cash Amount or the applicable REIT Shares Amount, as elected by the General Partner (in its sole and absolute discretion),
on the Specified Redemption Date, whereupon the General Partner shall acquire the Common Units offered for redemption by the Redeeming
Limited Partner and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Common Units. If the General Partner shall
elect to exercise its right to purchase Common Units under this Section 8.04(b) with respect to a Notice of Redemption, it shall so notify
the Redeeming Limited Partner within five Business Days after the receipt by the General Partner of such Notice of Redemption. If the
General Partner shall exercise its right to purchase Common Units with respect to the exercise of a Common Unit Redemption Right, the
Partnership shall have no obligation to pay any amount to the Redeeming Limited Partner with respect to such Redeeming Limited Partner’s
exercise of such Common Unit Redemption Right, and each of the Redeeming Limited Partner, the Partnership and the General Partner shall
treat the transaction between the General Partner and the Redeeming Limited Partner for federal income tax purposes as a sale of the Redeeming
Limited Partner’s Common Units to the General Partner. Each Redeeming Limited Partner agrees to execute such documents as the General
Partner may reasonably require in connection with the issuance of Class A REIT Shares or Class C REIT Shares, as applicable, upon exercise
of the Common Unit Redemption Right.

 

(c)       Section
8.04(c) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 8.04(c) is inserted in its place:

 

(c)               Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 8.04(a) and 8.04(b), a Limited Partner shall not be entitled to exercise the Common Unit Redemption Right
if the delivery of Class A REIT Shares or Class C REIT Shares, as applicable, to such Limited Partner on the Specified Redemption
Date by the General Partner pursuant to Section 8.04(b) (regardless of whether or not the General Partner would in fact exercise its
rights under Section 8.04(b)) would (i) result in such Limited Partner or any other Person (as defined in the Charter) owning,
directly or indirectly, REIT Shares in excess of the Share Ownership Limit or any Excepted Holder Limit and calculated in accordance
therewith, except as provided in the Charter, (ii) result in REIT Shares being owned by fewer than 100 persons (determined without
reference to any rules of attribution), (iii) result in the General Partner being “closely held” within the meaning of
Section 856(h) of the Code, (iv) cause the General Partner to own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the ownership
interests in a tenant (other than a TRS) of the General Partner’s, the Partnership’s or a Subsidiary Partnership’s
real property, within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, (v) otherwise cause the General Partner to fail to qualify as
a REIT under the Code or (vi) cause the acquisition of REIT Shares by such Limited Partner to be “integrated” with any
other distribution of REIT Shares or Common Units for purposes of complying with the registration provisions of the Securities Act.
The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, may waive the restriction on redemption set forth in this Section
8.04(c).

 

    13

     

    

 

10.             
Registration.

 

(a)       Section
8.05(a) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 8.05(a) is inserted in its place:

 

(a)              
Registration of the REIT Shares. One year following the date of this Agreement, or as soon as is practicable thereafter,
the General Partner shall file with the Commission a continuous offering registration statement under Rule 415 of the Securities Act (a
 “Registration Statement”), or any similar rule that may be adopted by the Commission, on appropriate form as determined
by the General Partner, covering the resale of Class A REIT Shares issuable upon redemption of the Common Units or LTIP Units held
by the Limited Partners as of the date of this Agreement, or their respective transferees and assigns (collectively, “Qualifying
Limited Partners”), other than the Class A REIT Shares covered by a separate registration statement under the Securities
Act, including without limitation a registration statement on Form S-8 (“Initial Redemption Shares”). In connection
therewith, the General Partner will:

 

(1)        use
commercially reasonable efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective;

 

(2)        register
or qualify the Redemption Shares covered by a Registration Statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions within
the United States as required by law, and do such other reasonable acts and things as may be required of it to enable such holders to
consummate the sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions of the Initial Redemption Shares; provided, however, that
the General Partner shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or consent to a general or unlimited service or process
in any jurisdictions in which it would not otherwise be required to be qualified or so consent or (ii) qualify as a dealer in securities;
and

 

(3)        otherwise
use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission in connection with a Registration
Statement.

 

    14

     

    

 

The General Partner agrees
to supplement or make amendments to the Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the
registration form utilized by the General Partner or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder for a Registration Statement.
The General Partner further agrees that it shall, in its discretion, either (i) amend or supplement the Registration Statement filed with
respect to the Initial Redemption Shares (the “Initial Registration Statement”) to cover the resale of any Class A
REIT Shares issuable upon redemption of Common Units or LTIP Units issued by the Partnership to the Qualifying Limited Partners after
the Initial Registration Statement is declared effective, other than those Units covered by another registration statement under the Securities
Act, including without limitation a registration statement on Form S-8 (“Subsequent Redemption Shares” and collectively
with the Initial Redemption Shares, “Redemption Shares”); or (ii) file a new Registration Statement covering any Subsequent
Redemption Shares. In connection with and as a condition to the General Partner’s obligations with respect to the filing of the
Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 8.05, each Limited Partner agrees with the General Partner that:

 

(w)        it
will provide in a timely manner to the General Partner such information with respect to the Limited Partner as reasonably required to
complete a Registration Statement, including without limitation the information required by Item 507 of Regulation S-K promulgated under
the Securities Act, and file the Registration Statement and to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission and
cleared by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (if required), and take such other acts as otherwise required to comply with applicable
securities laws and regulations;

 

(x)        it
will not offer or sell its Redemption Shares until (A) such Redemption Shares have been included in a Registration Statement and (B) it
has received notice that the Registration Statement covering such Redemption Shares, or any post-effective amendment thereto, has been
declared effective by the Commission, such notice to have been satisfied by the posting by the Commission on www.sec.gov of a notice
of effectiveness;

 

(y)        if
the General Partner determines in its good faith judgment, after consultation with counsel, that the use of a Registration Statement,
including any pre- or post-effective amendment thereto, or the use of any prospectus contained in such Registration Statement would require
the disclosure of important information that the General Partner has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential
or the disclosure of which, in the judgment of the General Partner, would impede the General Partner’s ability to consummate a
significant transaction, upon written notice of such determination by the General Partner (which notice shall be deemed sufficient if
given through the issuance of a press release or filing with the Commission and, if such notice is not publicly distributed, the Limited
Partner agrees to keep the subject information confidential and acknowledges that such information may constitute material non-public
information subject to the applicable restrictions under securities laws), the rights of each Limited Partner to offer, sell or distribute
its Redemption Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus or to require the General Partner to take action with respect
to the registration or sale of any Redemption Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement (including any action contemplated by this
Section 8.05) will be suspended until the date upon which the General Partner notifies such Limited Partner in writing (which notice
shall be deemed sufficient if given through the issuance of a press release or filing with the Commission and, if such notice is not
publicly distributed, the Limited Partner agrees to keep the subject information confidential and acknowledges that such information
may constitute material non-public information subject to the applicable restrictions under securities laws) that suspension of such
rights for the grounds set forth in this paragraph is no longer necessary; provided, however, that the General Partner
may not suspend such rights for an aggregate period of more than 180 days in any 12-month period; and

 

    15

     

    

 

(z)        in
the case of the registration of any underwritten equity offering proposed by the General Partner (other than any registration by the General
Partner on Form S-8, or a successor or substantially similar form, of an employee share option, share purchase or compensation plan or
of securities issued or issuable pursuant to any such plan), each Limited Partner will agree, (i) if requested in writing by the General
Partner, managing underwriter or underwriters administering such offering, not to effect any offer, sale or distribution of any REIT Shares
or Redemption Shares (or any option or right to acquire REIT Shares or Redemption Shares) during the period commencing on the tenth day
prior to the expected effective date (which date shall be stated in such notice) of the registration statement covering such underwritten
primary equity offering or, if such offering shall be a “take-down” from an effective shelf registration statement, the tenth
day prior to the expected commencement date (which date shall be stated in such notice) of such offering and ending on the date specified
by such General Partner, managing underwriter, or underwriters administering such offering in such written request to the Limited Partners
and (ii) to keep all information regarding any such offering, including without limitation the existence, timing, pricing and terms of
any such offering, confidential until such time as the General Partner makes such information public; provided, however,
that no Limited Partner shall be required to agree not to effect any offer, sale or distribution of its Redemption Shares for a period
of time that is longer than the greater of 90 days or the period of time for which any senior executive of the General Partner is required
so to agree in connection with such offering. Nothing in this paragraph shall be read to limit the ability of any Limited Partner to redeem
its Common Units in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(b)       Section
8.05(b) of the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 8.05(b) is inserted in its place:

 

(b)              
Listing on Securities Exchange. If the General Partner lists or maintains the listing of Class A REIT Shares on any
securities exchange or national market system, it shall, at its expense and as necessary to permit the registration and sale of the Redemption
Shares hereunder, list thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing to include such Redemption Shares.

 

11.             
Designation of C-LTIP Units. The Partnership Agreement is hereby amended to include the following as Article XIV of the
Partnership Agreement:

 

Article XIV

C-LTIP Units

 

14.01        Designation and
Number. A new series of Partnership Units, designated the C-LTIP Units (the “C-LTIP Units”), is hereby
established. The number of authorized C-LTIP Units shall be [].

 

14.02       Special
Provisions. C-LTIP Units shall be subject to the following special provisions:

 

(a)             Vesting
Agreements. C-LTIP Units may, in the sole discretion of the General Partner, be issued subject to vesting, forfeiture and
additional restrictions on transfer pursuant to the terms of a Vesting Agreement. The terms of any Vesting Agreement may be modified
by the General Partner from time to time in its sole discretion, subject to any restrictions on amendment imposed by the relevant
Vesting Agreement or by the Equity Incentive Plan, if applicable. C-LTIP Units that have vested under the terms of a Vesting
Agreement are referred to as “Vested C-LTIP Units”; all other C-LTIP Units shall be treated as “Unvested
C-LTIP Units.”

 

    16

     

    

 

(i)                
Each C-LTIP Unit that has become a Vested C-LTIP Unit shall be treated in the same manner as a Vested LTIP Unit that has no separate
C-LTIP Unit designation with all the rights, privileges and obligations attendant thereto and all references to Vested LTIP Units herein
shall refer equally to Vested C-LTIP Units, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and except that Vested C-LTIP
Units shall only be convertible into C-Common Units (and no other Vested LTIP Units may be converted into C-Common Units), as set forth
in Section 4.05 of this Agreement. During such time as any C-LTIP Unit has not become a Vested C-LTIP Unit, each such C-LTIP Unit shall
be treated in the same manner as an Unvested LTIP Unit, and all references to an Unvested LTIP Unit herein shall refer equally to such
C-LTIP Unit.

 

(b)              
Forfeiture. Unless otherwise specified in the Vesting Agreement, upon the occurrence of any event specified in a Vesting
Agreement as resulting in either the right of the Partnership or the General Partner to repurchase C-LTIP Units at a specified purchase
price or some other forfeiture of any C-LTIP Units, then if the Partnership or the General Partner exercises such right to repurchase
or forfeiture in accordance with the applicable Vesting Agreement, the relevant C-LTIP Units shall immediately, and without any further
action, be treated as cancelled and no longer outstanding for any purpose. Unless otherwise specified in the Vesting Agreement, no consideration
or other payment shall be due with respect to any C-LTIP Units that have been forfeited, other than any distributions declared with respect
to a Partnership Record Date before the effective date of the forfeiture. In connection with any repurchase or forfeiture of C-LTIP Units,
the balance of the portion of the Capital Account of the C-LTIP Unitholder that is attributable to all of his or her C-LTIP Units shall
be reduced by the amount, if any, by which it exceeds the target balance contemplated by Section 5.01(g) of this Agreement, calculated
with respect to the C-LTIP Unitholder’s remaining C-LTIP Units, if any.

 

(c)              
Allocations. C-LTIP Unitholders shall be entitled to certain special allocations of gain under Section 5.01(g) of this Agreement.

 

(d)              
Redemption. The Common Unit Redemption Right provided to Limited Partners under Section 8.04 of this Agreement shall not
apply with respect to C-LTIP Units unless and until they are converted to C-Common Units as provided in Section 4.05 of this Agreement.

 

(e)              
Conversion to C-Common Units. Vested C-LTIP Units are eligible to be converted into C-Common Units in accordance with Section
4.05 of this Agreement.

 

(f)               
Voting. C-LTIP Unitholders shall have the same voting rights as other LTIP Unitholders, with the C-LTIP Units voting as
a single class with the Common Units and having one vote per C-LTIP Unit.

 

12.             
Designation of C-Common Units. The Partnership Agreement is hereby amended to include the following as Article XV of the
Partnership Agreement:

 

    17

     

    

 

Article XV

C-Common Units

 

 

15.01        Designation and
Number. A new series of Partnership Units, designated the C-Common Units (the “C-Common Units”), is hereby
established. The number of authorized C-Common Units shall be [                ].

 

15.02        Terms.
Each C-Common Unit shall be treated in the same manner as a Common Unit that has no separate C-Common Unit designation with all of the
rights, privileges and obligations attendant thereto and all references to Common Units herein shall refer equally to C-Common Units,
expect as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and except that only C-Common Units shall be redeemable for Class C REIT Shares
(at the Partnership’s option) (and no other Common Units shall be redeemable for Class C REIT Shares), as set forth in Section 8.04
of this Agreement.

 

15.03        Rank. The
C-Common Units will, with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, rank
(a) on a parity with the Common Units and any other class or series of Common Units issued by the Partnership expressly designated as
ranking on a parity with the C-Common Units as to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership;
and (b) junior to any class or series of Preferred Units issued by the Partnership expressly designated as ranking senior to the Common
Units with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership. The C-Common Units
will also rank junior in right or payment to the Partnership’s existing and future indebtedness.

 

15.04       Distributions.
The holders of C-Common Units shall be entitled to receive distributions at such times as distributions are made with respect to the Common
Units pursuant to Section 5.02 of this Agreement.

 

15.05       Voting
Rights. The holders of C-Common Units shall have the same voting rights as the holders of other Common Units, with the C-Common Units
voting as a single class with the Common Units and have one vote per C-Common Unit.

 

15.06       Redemption.
The C-Common Units shall be redeemable as set forth in Section 8.04 of this Agreement.

 

13.

Partnership Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership Agreement shall be construed to provide that notwithstanding
Section 17-401(b) of the Act, the Substitution does not require the consent of each partner of the Partnership, and the approvals

 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. For the avoidance of doubt, this Amendment and the Substitution, separately or taken together, do not modify
or cause any loss of the limited liability of the Limited Partners as limited partners under the laws of the State of Delaware and all
other applicable jurisdictions, and all such limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners are hereby preserved.
