 ARTICLE III 

COMPENSATION 

3.01 Fees. 
  

	 	(a)	Advisory Fee . On the last day of each month, the Company shall pay to the Advisor a monthly Advisory Fee based upon the monthly Average Invested Assets. The
Advisory Fee shall be calculated according to the following schedule: 

  

					
	 Average Invested Assets
	  	Annualized
Fee Rate	 
	 $0 — $2 billion
	  	 	0.75	% 
	 Over $2 billion — $4 billion
	  	 	0.70	% 
	 Over $4 billion
	  	 	0.65	% 

 The Advisory Fee shall be applied according to the above schedule for each level of monthly Average
Invested Assets, resulting in a blended annualized rate for fees paid in respect of Average Invested Assets in excess of $2 billion. For example, the annualized rate for fees paid in respect of Average Invested Assets of $5 billion is
0.71%. Any portion of the Advisory Fee may be deferred and paid in a subsequent period upon the mutual agreement of the parties hereto. 
  

	 	(b)	 Acquisition Fees . The Company shall pay the Advisor, or an Affiliate of the Advisor, a fee in the amount of 2.0% of the Contract Purchase Price
of each Asset as Acquisition Fees. The total of all Acquisition Fees and any Acquisition Expenses shall be limited in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, shall be reasonable and shall not exceed an amount equal to 6.0% of the aggregate
Contract Purchase Price paid for the total portfolio of Assets. Acquisition Fees shall be paid as follows: (1) for real property (including properties where development/redevelopment is

  
 8 

	 	
expected), at the time of acquisition, (2) for development/redevelopment projects (other than the initial acquisition of the real property), at the time a final budget is approved, and
(3) for loans and similar assets (including without limitation mezzanine loans), quarterly based on the value of loans made or acquired. In the case of a development/redevelopment project subject to clause (2) above, upon completion of the
development/redevelopment project, the Advisor shall determine the actual amounts paid. To the extent the amounts actually paid vary from the budgeted amounts on which the Acquisition Fee was initially based, the Advisor will pay or invoice the
Company for 2.0% of the budget variance such that the Acquisition Fee is ultimately 2.0% of amounts expended on such development/redevelopment project. Any portion of the Acquisition Fee may be deferred and paid in a subsequent period upon the
mutual agreement of the parties hereto. 

  

	 	(c)	 Subordinated Performance Fee . The Company shall pay the Advisor a Subordinated Performance Fee in connection with any one of the following
events: (1) Upon Listing, the Advisor shall be entitled to the Subordinated Performance Fee in an amount equal to 15.0% of the amount by which (i) the Market Value of the Company’s outstanding Shares plus distributions paid by the
Company prior to Listing, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital and (B) the total Distributions required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders’ 6.0% Return from inception through the date
that Market Value is determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a non-interest bearing promissory note, or any combination of the foregoing. If the Company pays
such fee with a non-interest bearing promissory note, payment in full shall be made from the Net Sales Proceeds of the first Sale completed by the Company after Listing. If the Net Sales Proceeds from the
first Sale after Listing are insufficient to pay the promissory note in full, then the promissory note shall be paid in part with such Net Sales Proceeds, and in part from the Net Sales Proceeds from the next successive Sales until the amount owing
pursuant to such promissory note is paid in full. If the promissory note has not been paid in full within five years from the date of Listing, then the Advisor, or its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the unpaid balance into Shares at a
price per Share equal to the average closing price of the Shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of such election. If the Shares are no longer Listed at such time as the promissory note becomes convertible into Shares as
provided in the immediately preceding sentence, then the price per Share, for purposes of conversion, shall be determined pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 3.01(c). (2) Upon a Sale, the Advisor shall be entitled to the Subordinated
Performance Fee in an amount equal to 15.0% of Net Sale Proceeds remaining after the Stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of the Stockholders’ 6.0% Return and 100% of Invested Capital. The Company shall have the option to
pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a non-interest bearing promissory note, or any combination of the foregoing. (3) Upon termination, unless such termination is by the Company because of a material
breach of this Agreement by the Advisor or occurs upon a Change of Control, the Advisor shall be entitled to receive a payment of the Subordinated Performance Fee equal to 15.0% of the amount, if any, by which (i) (A) prior to the NAV Pricing
Start Date, the Appraised Value of the Assets, valued on a portfolio basis, on the Termination Date, less the amount of all indebtedness secured by the Assets, or (B) after the NAV Pricing Start Date, the most recent NAV on the Termination Date
plus, in either case, the total Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company’s inception through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount equal to the Stockholders’ 6.0% Return from inception through
the Termination Date. The Company shall pay such Subordinated Performance Fee at such time as the Company completes the first Sale after the Termination Date. Payment shall be made from the Net Sales Proceeds of such Sale. The Company shall have the
option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a non-interest bearing promissory note, or any combination of the foregoing. If the Net Sales Proceeds from the first Sale after the Termination Date are
insufficient to pay the Subordinated Performance Fee in full, then the Subordinated Performance Fee shall be paid in part with such Net Sales Proceeds, and in part from the Net Sales Proceeds from the next successive Sales until the Subordinated
Performance Fee is paid in full. If the Subordinated Performance Fee has not been paid in full within five years from the Termination Date, then the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the fee into Shares at a
price per Share equal to the average closing price of the Shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of such election if the Shares are Listed at such time. If the Shares are not Listed at such time, the Advisor, its successors
or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the fee into Shares at a price per Share that shall be determined pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 3.01(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if termination occurs upon a Change of Control,
the Advisor shall be entitled to payment of the Subordinated Performance Fee equal to 15.0% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the value of the Assets on the Termination Date as determined in good faith by the Board, including a majority of
the Independent 

  
 9 

	 	
Directors, based upon such factors as the consideration paid in connection with the Change of Control and the most recent (A) prior to the NAV Pricing Start Date, Appraised Value of the Assets,
valued on a portfolio basis, less the amount of all indebtedness secured by the Assets, or (B) after the NAV Pricing Start Date, NAV, plus, in either case, the total Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company’s inception through the
Termination Date, exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount equal to the Stockholders’ 6.0% Return from inception through the Termination Date. No deferral of payment of the Subordinated Performance Fee may be made under this paragraph
of this Section 3.01(c). In the event that the Advisor disagrees with the valuation of Shares pursuant to the immediately preceding three sentences where the Shares are not Listed for purposes of determining the number of Shares to be issued to
the Advisor following the Advisor’s election to convert the balance of the Subordinated Performance Fee owed to the Advisor, then the fair market value of such Shares shall be determined by an Independent Expert of equity value selected by the
Advisor. For the purposes of the payment of the Subordinated Performance Fee in Shares pursuant to this Section 3.01(c), (i) prior to the NAV Pricing Start Date, each Share shall be valued at the per share offering price of the Shares in such
Offering minus the maximum Selling Commissions and dealer manager fee allowed in such Offering, and (ii) after the NAV Pricing Start Date, each Share shall be valued at the then-current NAV per Share; provided, however that the determination of the
value of each Share shall be subject to any regulatory requirements that may be applicable to such determination. 

  
 10 

	 	(d)	Disposition Fee . If the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Independent
Directors) in connection with the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive a Disposition Fee equal to up to one-half of the real estate commission paid on the Sale of the
Property, not to exceed 1% of the Contract Sales Price of each Property sold; provided, however, in no event may the Disposition Fee paid to the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor, when added to the real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, exceed the lesser of (i) the Competitive Real Estate Commission or (ii) 6.0% of the Contract Sales Price of a Property 

 

	 	(e)	Limitation on Insourced Acquisition Expenses. 

 (i) The total of all Insourced Acquisition Expenses with respect to any Asset shall initially be fixed at, and shall not exceed, 0.50% of the Contract Purchase Price of the Property or other Asset or
0.50% of the amount advanced with respect to a Mortgage, which the Company shall pay to the Advisor or its Affiliate as follows: (1) for real property (including properties where development/redevelopment is expected), at the time of acquisition,
(2) for development/redevelopment projects (other than the initial acquisition of the real property), at the time a final budget is approved, and (3) for loans and similar assets (including without limitation mezzanine loans), quarterly based on the
value of loans made or acquired. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment in respect of Insourced Acquisition Expenses shall be made unless the Advisor or its Affiliates shall have performed services related to selecting, evaluating and acquiring an
Asset, regardless of whether such Asset is ultimately acquired. 
 (ii) The total of all Insourced Acquisition Expenses for any
calendar year shall initially be fixed at, and shall not exceed, 0.50% of the aggregate Contract Purchase Price paid for the total portfolio of Properties or other Assets acquired during such period or 0.50% of the aggregate amounts advanced with
respect to Mortgages during such period (to be prorated for any partial calendar year); provided, however, within a reasonable period of time following the end of each such calendar year, the Company shall perform a Market Check and
provide the results thereof to the Advisor within a reasonable period of time and, if the result of the Market Check is that the projected amount of Acquisition Expenses that would be incurred if substantially similar services with respect to a
substantially similar amount of Assets were to be provided by a Person other than the Advisor or any of its Affiliates during the subsequent calendar year is lower than the amount of Insourced Acquisition Expenses paid to the Advisor or its
Affiliates during the previous calendar year, either (A) the Advisor shall agree to reduce the cap on the Insourced Acquisition Expenses until the next Market Check such that the cap on Insourced Acquisition Expenses does not exceed the projected
amount of Acquisition Expenses that would be incurred if substantially similar services with respect to a substantially similar amount of Assets were to be provided by a Person other than the Advisor or any of its Affiliates during the subsequent
calendar year or (B) the Company may outsource to a Person other than the Advisor or its Affiliate certain services previously provided by the Advisor or its Affiliates until the next Market Check. 

3.02 Expenses. 
  

	 	(a)	In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor, as applicable, for
all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to: 

(i) Organization and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within 60 days after the end of the month in which an Offering
terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company for any Organization and Offering Expenses reimbursed by the Company to the Advisor to the extent that such reimbursements exceed 2.0% of the Gross Proceeds raised in the completed Offering. The
Advisor shall be responsible for the payment of Organization and Offering Expenses in excess of 2.0% of the Gross Proceeds; 

(ii) Acquisition Expenses (excluding Insourced Acquisition Expenses) incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of
Assets in an amount estimated to be up to 0.5% of the Contract Purchase Price and Insourced Acquisition Expenses, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.01(e) of this Agreement; 

(iii) the actual cost of goods, services and materials used by the Company and obtained from Persons not affiliated with the
Advisor, other than Acquisition Expenses, including property management and leasing services;

 (v) taxes and assessments on income or
property and taxes as an expense of doing business; 
 (vi) costs associated with insurance required in connection with the
business of the Company or by the Board; 
 (vii) expenses of managing and operating Assets owned by the Company, whether
payable to an Affiliate of the Company, including wages and salaries and other personnel-related expenses, unless otherwise waived, in whole or in part, by the Affiliate in its sole discretion, of all on-site
and off-site employees of the Affiliate who are engaged in the operation, management, maintenance and leasing or access control of the Asset, or to a non-affiliated
Person; 
 (viii) all expenses in connection with payments to the Board for attendance at meetings of the Board and
Stockholders; 
 (ix) expenses associated with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of Shares and other securities
of the Company, such as Selling Commissions and fees, advertising expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, and Listing and registration fees; 
 (x) expenses connected with payments of Distributions in cash or otherwise made or caused to be made by the Company to the Stockholders; 

(xi) expenses of organizing, reorganizing, liquidating or dissolving the Company or amending the Articles of Incorporation or the
Bylaws; 
 (xii) expenses of any third party transfer agent for the Shares and of maintaining communications with
Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities; 

(xiii) administrative service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by Advisor in fulfilling its duties hereunder.
Such costs and expenses may include reasonable wages and salaries and other personnel-related expenses of all employees of Advisor or its Affiliates who are engage in the 

  
 11 

 
management, administration, operations, and marketing of the Company and its Assets, including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses which are directly related to their services provided hereunder, provided, however that the Company shall not reimburse the Advisor for salaries
and benefits paid to persons who are executive officers of the Company, nor shall the Company pay personnel costs in connection with services for which the Advisor receives an Acquisition Fee or Disposition Fee; and 

(xiv) audit, accounting and legal fees, and other fees and expenses associated with regulatory compliance. 

 

	 	(b)	Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and payable pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be reimbursed (excluding Insourced Acquisition Expenses
which shall be paid as described in Section 3.01(e)(i) of this Agreement) no less than quarterly to the Advisor within 60 days after the end of each quarter. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company during
each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company within 45 days after the end of each quarter. 

 3.03
Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Section 2.02, or should the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor
provide a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with the Sale of one or more Assets that are not Properties, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in
such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Board, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, in no event may the
compensation agreed upon by the Advisor and the Board in connection with the Sale of one or more Assets that are not Properties, if any, exceed 1% of the total consideration provided for in the sales contract for the sale of each such Asset sold;
and provided, further, that any such compensation must be approved by a majority of the Independent Directors. 
 3.04 Reimbursement to the
Advisor. The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor, at the end of any fiscal quarter, for any Operating Expenses to the extent that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) the Operating Expenses
exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of (i) 2% of Average Invested Assets or (ii) 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) for that period of four consecutive quarters unless the Independent Directors determine
that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which the Independent Directors deem sufficient. If the Independent Directors do not approve such excess as being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a
fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If the Independent Directors determine such excess was justified, then within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total reimbursed Operating Expenses for the Expense
Year exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of the Independent Directors, shall cause such fact to be disclosed in the next quarterly report of the Company or in a separate writing and sent to the stockholders, together with an
explanation of the factors the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. The Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board. All figures used
in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. 
 ARTICLE IV

 4.02 Termination. This Agreement will automatically terminate upon Listing. This Agreement also may be terminated at the option of either party upon 60 days written notice without cause

INDEMNIFICATION 

5.01 (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and
employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related
expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland, the Articles of Incorporation and the NASAA Guidelines under the Articles of Incorporation. The Company shall not indemnify or
hold harmless the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, for any liability or loss suffered by the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and
employees, nor shall it provide that the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Company, unless all of the following conditions

Company; (ii) the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, were acting on behalf of or performing services of the Company; (iii) such liability or loss was not the result of
negligence or misconduct by the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees; and (iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s net
assets and not from Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, shall not be indemnified by the Company for any losses, liability or expenses
arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged
securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; and (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction
approves a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws. 

  
 13 

 (b) The Articles of Incorporation provide that the advancement of Company funds to the
Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which indemnification is being sought is permissible only if all of
the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company; (ii) the legal action is initiated by a third-party who is not a
Stockholder or the legal action is initiated by a Stockholder acting in his or her capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement; (iii) the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective
officers, directors, partners and employees, undertake to repay the advanced funds to the Company together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which such Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers,
directors, partners and employees, are found not to be entitled to indemnification. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of
this Section 5.01, the Advisor shall not be entitled to indemnification or be held harmless pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any activity which the Advisor shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to
Section 5.02. 
 5.02 Indemnification by Advisor . The Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company from contract or
other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys’ fees, to the extent that (i) such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and
(ii) are incurred by reason of the Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, misfeasance, misconduct, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties. The Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to
follow any advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.
