SELLING AGREEMENT

Northern Lights Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter of shares of Bluerock Total Income + Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”), a closed-end investment company, shares of which company is distributed by Distributor at its respective net asset value plus sales charges as applicable, pursuant to a written agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”).  Distributor invites you (the “Company”) to participate as a non-exclusive agent in the distribution of shares of the Fund upon the following terms and conditions:

Section 1. Sale and Redemption of Fund Shares

(a)

Company shall offer and sell such shares only at the public offering price which shall be currently in effect, in accordance with the terms of the current Prospectus¹.  The applicable public offering price may reflect scheduled variations in, or the elimination of, sales charges or concessions on sales of the Fund’s shares, as described in the Prospectus.  Company agrees that it will apply any scheduled variation in, or elimination of, any sales charge or concession uniformly to all offerees in a class as specified in the Prospectus.  Company agrees to act only as agent in such transactions and nothing in this agreement shall constitute either Distributor or Company as agent of the other or shall constitute Company or the Fund as agent of the other.  

(b)

As a selected dealer in Fund shares, Company is authorized and agrees to transmit orders for purchases and redemptions, or any other requested actions with respect to Fund shares, to the Fund’s transfer agent.  Procedures related to the transmission and handling of orders for Fund share transactions (including the applicable price and effective time of orders) will be governed by applicable law, the terms of the Prospectus, the relevant account application(s) and any written instructions that Distributor may periodically issue to Company.  In all transactions in Fund shares between Company and Distributor, Distributor is acting as agent for the Fund and not as principal.  All orders are subject to acceptance by Distributor and become effective only upon confirmation by Distributor.  Distributor reserves the right in its sole discretion to reject any order.  Company agrees to submit orders for Fund share transaction only in compliance with the terms and conditions in the Prospectus.

¹ As used in this agreement, the term “Prospectus” means that applicable Fund’s prospectus and related statement of additional information, whether in paper or electronic format, included in the Fund’s then currently effective registration statement (or post-effective amendment thereto), and any information that Distributor or the Fund may provide to you as a supplement to such prospectus or statement of additional information, all as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as may be amended.

(c)

Company further agrees to provide certain services in order to promote the sale of shares of the Fund, including but not limited to: answering routine inquiries concerning the Fund; assisting in the maintenance of accounts or sub-accounts in the Fund; processing purchase or redemption transactions; making the Fund’s investment plans and shareholder services available; and providing such other information and services to investors in shares of the Fund as Distributor or the Fund may reasonably request.  

(d)

With respect to the Fund the shares of which are indicated in the Prospectus as being sold with a sales charge, Company will be allowed the concessions from the public offering price provided in the Prospectus and/or periodic written correspondence from Distributor.  With respect to the Fund the shares of which are indicated in the Prospectus as being sold with a contingent deferred sales, early withdrawal or similar charge, Company will be paid a commission or concession as disclosed in the Prospectus and/or periodic written correspondence from Distributor.  Any such sales charges or discounts may be subject to reductions under a variety of circumstances as described in the Prospectus.  If a customer qualifies for a reduced sales charge as described in the Prospectus, Company agrees to offer and sell Fund shares to such customer at the applicable reduced sales charge.  To obtain these reductions, Distributor must be notified when the sale takes place which would qualify for the reduced charge.  There will be no sales charge paid or discount allowed (if any) on the reinvestment of any dividends or distributions in additional Fund shares.

(e)

All purchases of shares of the Fund made under any cumulative purchase privilege as set forth in the Prospectus shall be considered an individual transaction for the purpose of determining any sales concession from the public offering price to which Company may be entitled as set forth in the Prospectus.  

(f)

As the Fund’s agent, Distributor shall sell shares to Company for the account of its customers or for its own bona fide investment.  Company agrees that its transactions in shares of the Fund will be limited to (i) the purchase of shares from Distributor for resale to customers at the applicable public offering price or for Company’s own bona fide investment; (ii) exchanges of shares between the Fund to the extent permitted by the Prospectus and in accordance with any written instructions from Distributor; and (iii) transactions involving the redemption of shares by the Fund or the repurchase of shares by Distributor as an accommodation to shareholders or as applicable through tender offers.  Company agrees to sell Fund shares only to (i) Company’s customers at the applicable public offering price, as determined in accordance with the Prospectus or (ii) Distributor (or the Fund itself) at the applicable redemption price, as determined in accordance with the Prospectus.  Company agrees to purchase shares of the Fund only from (i) Company’s customers at the applicable redemption price, as determined in accordance with the Prospectus or (ii) Distributor (or the Fund itself) at the applicable public offering price, as determined in accordance with the Prospectus.

(g)

Company agrees not to purchase any Fund shares from its customers at a price lower than the applicable redemption price, determined in accordance with the Prospectus.     Company represents that any order, instruction and/or related information transmitted to Distributor by Company for the Fund share transaction has been authorized by Company’s customers or is being requested for Company’s own investment purposes.  Any Fund share transaction order that Company places with Distributor or the Fund is subject to the timely receipt by the Fund’s transfer or other designated agent of all required documents in good order.  If such documents are not received within a reasonable time after the order is placed, the order is subject to cancellation, in which case Company agrees to be responsible for any loss to the Fund or Distributor resulting from such cancellation.  Company shall be responsible for the accuracy, timeliness and completeness of any Fund share transaction orders transmitted by Company to Distributor, and Company shall indemnify Distributor against any third-party claims as a result of Company’s failure to properly transmit such orders.  Company also shall be responsible for date and time stamping all orders for transactions in Fund shares that Company receives from its customers.

(i)

Company must pay for Fund shares in accordance with Distributor’s instructions, and Distributor must receive payment for such shares on or before the settlement date established in accordance with Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as may be amended (the “Exchange Act”).  If Distributor does not receive payment on or before such settlement date, Distributor may, without notice, cancel the sale or, at Distributor’s option, sell the share that Company ordered back to the issuing Fund, and Distributor may hold Company responsible for any loss suffered by Distributor or the issuing Fund as a result of Company’s failure to make payment as required.  

(j)

If any shares sold to Company under the terms of this agreement are repurchased by the Fund or by Distributor as the Fund’s agent, or for the account of the Fund or are tendered to the Fund for purchase at liquidating value under the terms of the Agreement and Declaration of Fund or other document governing such Fund within seven (7) business days after the date of confirmation to Company of Company’s original purchase order therefor, Company agrees to pay forthwith to Distributor the full amount of the concession allowed to Company on the original sale and Distributor agrees to forward payment of such amount to the Fund when received.  Distributor shall notify Company of such repurchase within ten (10) days of the effective date of such repurchase.
