Investment Adviser and Investment Sub-Adviser The Trustees may in their discretion, from time to time, enter into an investment advisory or management contract or contracts with respect to the Trust or any Series whereby the other party or parties to such contract or contracts shall undertake to furnish the Trust with such management, investment advisory, statistical and research facilities and services and such other facilities and services, if any, and all upon such terms and conditions, as the Trustees may in their discretion determine. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Instrument, the Trustees may authorize any investment adviser (subject to such general or specific instructions as the Trustees may from time to time adopt) to effect purchases, sales or exchanges of portfolio securities, other investment instruments of the Trust, or other Trust Property on behalf of the Trustees, or may authorize any officer, employee, agent, or Trustee to effect such purchases, sales or exchanges pursuant to recommendations of the investment adviser (and all without further action by the Trustees). Any such purchases, sales and exchanges shall be deemed to have been authorized by the Trustees. The Trustees may authorize, subject to applicable requirements of the 1940 Act, the investment adviser to employ, from time to time, one or more sub-advisers to perform such of the acts and services of the investment adviser, and upon such terms and conditions, as may be agreed upon between the investment adviser and sub-adviser. Any reference in this Trust Instrument to the investment adviser shall be deemed to include such sub-advisers, unless the context otherwise requires.
Subsidiaries and Investments The Company does not own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock or other equity, ownership or proprietary interest in any corporation, partnership, association, trust, joint venture or other entity (each a "Company Subsidiary").
Commingling and Investment The Trustee is expressly authorized in its discretion:
(a) To transfer from time to time any or all of the assets of the Fund to any common, commingled, or collective trust fund created by the Trustee in which the Fund is eligible to participate, subject to all of the provisions thereof, to be commingled with the assets of other trusts participating therein; and
(b) To purchase shares in any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, 15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq., including one which may be created, managed, underwritten, or to which investment advice is rendered or the shares of which are sold by the Trustee. The Trustee may vote such shares in its discretion.
Investors During the Escrow Period, Investors will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealers to remit the purchase price in the form of checks payable to the order of, or funds wired in favor of, “UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for Resource Apartment REIT III, Inc.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Pennsylvania Investors, Washington Investors and New York Investors shall continue to make checks payable to the order of “UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for Resource Apartment REIT III, Inc.” until, respectively, the Pennsylvania Minimum Offering, the Washington Minimum Offering or the New York Minimum Offering is raised. 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. By 12:00 p.m. (EST) of the next business day following the receipt of instruments of payment from the Offering, the Company or the Dealer Manager, as applicable, shall furnish the Escrow Agent with a list of the Investors who have paid for the Securities showing the name, address, tax identification number, the amount of Securities subscribed for purchase, the amount paid and whether such Investors are Pennsylvania Investors, Washington Investors or New York Investors. The information comprising the identity of Investors shall be provided to the Escrow Agent in substantially the format set forth in the list of Investors attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “List of Investors”). The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the List of Investors in determining whether Investors are Pennsylvania Investors, Washington Investors or New York Investors and shall have no duty to independently determine or verify the same. When a Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures are conducted at the site at which the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities were initially received by Soliciting Dealer from the subscriber, such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the subscription agreement and such check to the Escrow Agent by the end of the next business day following receipt of the check for the purchase of Securities and subscription agreement. When, pursuant to such Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, such Soliciting Dealer’s final internal supervisory procedures are conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the check for the purchase of Securities and subscription agreement to the Final Review Office by the end of the next business day following Soliciting Dealer’s receipt of the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities. The Final Review Office will, by the end of the next business day following its receipt of the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities, forward both the subscription agreement and such check to the Escrow Agent. If any subscription agreement solicited by a Soliciting Dealer is rejected by the Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities will be returned to the rejected subscriber within ten (10) business days from the date of rejection. 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 Sections 3, 4, 5 or 6 hereto. 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 Company and the Escrow Agent will treat all Investor information as confidential. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept any Investor Funds which are not accompanied by the information on the List of Investors.
