DEALER-MANAGER COMPENSATION (i) Subject to the volume discounts and other special circumstances described in or otherwise provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus or this Section 3(d), the Company agrees to pay the Dealer Manager selling commissions in the amount of seven percent (7.0%) of the selling price of each Share for which a sale is completed from the Shares offered in the Primary Offering. Alternatively, if the Soliciting Dealer elects to receive selling commissions equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) in accordance with the Soliciting Dealers Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the Dealer Manager selling commissions in the amount of seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the selling price of each Share for which a sale is completed from the Shares offered in the Primary Offering, two and one-half percent (2.5%) of which selling commissions shall be payable at the time of such sale and one percent (1%) of which shall be paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale. The Company will not pay selling commissions for sales of DRP Shares, and the Company will pay reduced selling commissions or may eliminate commissions on certain sales of Shares, including the reduction or elimination of selling commissions in accordance with, and on the terms set forth in, the Prospectus. The Dealer Manager will reallow all the selling commissions, subject to federal and state securities laws, to the Soliciting Dealer who sold the Shares, as described more fully in the Soliciting Dealers Agreement. In no event shall the Dealer Manager be entitled to payment of any compensation in connection with the Offering that is not completed according to this Agreement; provided, however, that the reimbursement of out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually incurred by the Dealer Manager or Person associated with the Dealer Manager shall not be presumed to be unfair or unreasonable and shall be payable under normal circumstances.
(ii) Subject to the special circumstances described in or otherwise provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus or this Section 3(d), as compensation for acting as the dealer manager, the Company will pay the Dealer Manager, a dealer manager fee in the amount of three percent (3.0%) of the selling price of each Share for which a sale is completed from the Shares offered in the Primary Offering (the “Dealer Manager Fee”). Notwithstanding, the Dealer Manager Fee will be reduced to two and one-half percent (2.5%) if the selling commission is seven and one-half percent (7.5%) as described above. The Dealer manager may retain or re-allow all or a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee, subject to federal and state securities laws, to the Soliciting Dealer who sold the shares, as described more fully in the Soliciting Dealer Agreement. No Dealer Manager Fee will be paid in connection with DRP Shares. The Dealer Manager may retain or re-allow all or a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee, subject to federal and state securities laws, to the Soliciting Dealer who sold the Shares, as described more fully in the Soliciting Dealers Agreement.
(iii) All sales commissions payable to the Dealer Manager will be paid within thirty (30) days after the investor subscribing for the Share is admitted as a shareholder of the Company, in an amount equal to the sales commissions payable with respect to such Shares.
(iv) In no event shall the total aggregate compensation payable to the Dealer Manager and any Soliciting Dealers participating in the Offering, including, but not limited to, selling commissions and the Dealer Manager Fee exceed ten percent (10.0%) of gross offering proceeds from the Primary Offering in the aggregate. In connection with the minimum amount offered by the Company pursuant to the Prospectus and FINRA’s 10% underwriting compensation limitation under FINRA Rule 2310 (“FINRA’s 10% cap”), the Dealer Manager shall advance all of the fixed expenses, including, but not limited to, wholesaling salaries, salaries of dual employees allocated to wholesaling activities, and other fixed expenses, (including, but not limited to, wholesaling expense reimbursements and the Dealer Manager’s legal expenses associated with filing the Offering with FINRA), that are required to be included within FINRA’s 10% cap to ensure that the aggregate underwriting compensation paid in connection with the Offering does not exceed FINRA’s 10% cap. The Dealer Manager shall repay to the Company any excess amounts received over FINRA’s 10% cap if the Offering is abruptly terminated after receiving the minimum amount offered by the Company pursuant to the Prospectus and before reaching the maximum amount of offered by the Company pursuant to the Prospectus. No compensation in connection with the Offering may be paid to the Dealer Manager, Soliciting Dealers or their affiliates out of the proceeds of the Offering prior to the release of such proceeds from escrow. However, if any such payments are made from sources other than proceeds of the Offering, they shall be made only on the basis of bona fide transactions.
(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company pays any selling commission to the Dealer Manager for sale by a Soliciting Dealer of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, then the Company shall decrease the next payment of selling commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Dealer Manager by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the commission rate established in this Section 3(d), multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded. If no payment of selling commissions or other compensation is due to the Dealer Manager after such withdrawal occurs, then the Dealer Manager shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Company within a reasonable period of time not to exceed thirty (30) days following receipt of notice by the Dealer Manager from the Company stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded subscriptions.
Fees and Compensation Managers and Officers may receive such compensation and fees, if any, for their services, and such reimbursement for expenses, as may be determined by resolution of the Board.
