After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as the Secured Party may determine, proper allowance and provision being made for any Obligations not then due.

Subordinated Disposition Fee If the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or an Affiliate shall receive a Subordinated Disposition Fee equal to the lesser of (i) one-half of a Competitive Real Estate Commission or (ii) 3% of the sales price of such Property or Properties. The Subordinated Disposition Fee will be paid only if Stockholders have received total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital and their aggregate Stockholders' 8% Return. To the extent that Subordinated Disposition Fees are not paid by the Company on a current basis due to the foregoing limitation, the unpaid fees will be accrued and paid at such time as the subordination conditions have been satisfied. The Subordinated Disposition Fee may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total real estate commissions paid to all Persons by the Company shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6% of the Contract Sales Price of a Property or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to such time as the Stockholders have received total Distributions in an amount equal to 100% of Invested Capital plus an amount sufficient to pay the Stockholders' 8% Return through the Termination Date, an appraisal of the Properties then owned by the Company shall be made and the Subordinated Disposition Fee on Properties previously sold will be deemed earned if the Appraised Value of the Properties then owned by the Company plus total Distributions received prior to the Termination Date equals 100% of Invested Capital plus an amount sufficient to pay the Stockholders' 8% Return through the Termination Date. Upon Listing, if the Advisor has accrued but not been paid such Subordinated Disposition Fee, then for purposes of determining whether the subordination conditions have been satisfied, Stockholders will be deemed to have received a Distribution in the amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing price of the Shares over a period, beginning 180 days after Listing, of 30 days during which the Shares are traded.
