Redemption of Partnership Interests of Ineligible Holders (a) If at any time a Limited Partner fails to furnish an Eligibility Certificate or any other information requested within the period of time specified in Section 4.9, or if upon receipt of such Eligibility Certificate or other information the General Partner determines, with the advice of counsel, that a Limited Partner is an Ineligible Holder, the Partnership may, unless the Limited Partner establishes to the satisfaction of the General Partner that such Limited Partner is not an Ineligible Holder or has transferred his Limited Partner Interests to a Person who is not an Ineligible Holder and who furnishes an Eligibility Certificate to the General Partner prior to the date fixed for redemption as provided below, redeem the Limited Partner Interest of such Limited Partner as follows:
Preferred Stock Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the creation and issuance of such series adopted by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided. Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation of any such series, by adopting a resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of the shares thereof and by filing a certificate of designation relating thereto in accordance with the DGCL (a “Certificate of Designation”), to determine and fix the number of shares of such series and such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including without limitation thereof, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, and to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by the DGCL.

Investors Investors will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealer to remit the purchase price in the form of checks (“instruments of payment”) payable to the order of “UMB BANK, N.A., ESCROW AGENT FOR LIGHTSTONE REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST.” By 12:00 p.m. Eastern the next business day after receipt of instruments of payment, the Escrow Agent shall be furnished with a list of the Investors who have paid for the Common Shares showing the name, address, tax identification number, number of Common Shares subscribed for, the amount paid and whether such Investors are New York Investors, Tennessee Investors or Pennsylvania Investors (the “List of Investors”). The information comprising the identity of Investors shall be provided to the Escrow Agent in the format set forth in the “List of Investors” attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the List of Investors in determining whether Investors are New York Investors, Tennessee Investors or Pennsylvania Investors, and shall have no duty to independently determine or verify the same. Any checks made payable to a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be returned to the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer that submitted the check. If any subscription agreement for the purchase of Common Shares solicited by a Soliciting Dealer is rejected by the Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and the related check for the purchase of Common Shares will be returned to the rejected subscriber within ten (10) business days from the date of rejection. If an Investor sends a check to the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealer that does not conform to the subscription instructions, the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, shall return the check directly to such Investor not later than the end of the next business day after the date on which the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, received such check. All Investor Funds deposited in the Escrow Account shall not be subject to any liens or charges by the Company or the Escrow Agent, or judgments or creditors’ claims against the Company, until and unless released to the Company as hereinafter provided. The Company understands and agrees that the Company shall not be entitled to any Investor Funds on deposit in the Escrow Account and no such funds shall become the property of the Company or any other entity except as released to the Company pursuant to Section 3, Section 4 for New York Investors, Section 5 for Tennessee Investors or Section 6 for Pennsylvania Investors. The Escrow Agent will not use the information provided to it by the Company for any purpose other than to fulfill its obligations as Escrow Agent hereunder. The Escrow Agent will treat all Investor information as confidential.
Investment Intent; Accredited Investor The Investor is purchasing the Note and the Warrant for its own account, for investment purposes, and not with a view towards distribution. The Investor is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the 1933 Act. The Investor has, by reason of its business and financial experience, such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial and business matters and in making investment decisions of this type that it is capable of (a) evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Note, the Warrant and the Investor Shares and making an informed investment decision, (b) protecting its own interests and (c) bearing the economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time.
Preferred Units Without the consent of any Common Unitholder, the Board may cause the Company to issue one class of Preferred Units, which Preferred Units would have rights senior to those of the Common Units, and such other characteristics as the Board may determine, but, for so long as the Company operates as a BDC, in a manner that complies with the legal requirements applicable to a BDC. Prior to the issuance of a series of Preferred Units, the Board shall set the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption.
