The Company reserves the right to reallocate the Shares among the share classes in the Offerings. The Company also reserves the right to discontinue offering any class of Shares at any time during the Offerings, which shall be disclosed in each Prospectus.

(b) DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICING FEE.
(i) Amount.
Upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus and subject to the limitations set forth below, for providing the services described in Exhibit A attached hereto with respect to Class T Shares purchased in the primary portion of the Initial Offering (the “Primary Offering”) and Class T Shares and Class T2 Shares purchased in the Follow-On Offering only, the Company will pay to the Dealer Manager a distribution and servicing that accrues daily equal to (i) 1/365th of up to 1.0% of the most recent estimated NAV per Class T Share on a continuous basis from year to year for each Class T Share sold in the Primary Offering of the Initial Offering and the Follow-On Offering (the “Class T Distribution and Servicing Fee”) and (ii) 1/365th of up to 1.0% of the most recent estimated NAV per Class T Share (until the Company has determined an estimated NAV per Class T2 Share) on a continuous basis from year to year for each Class T2 Share sold in the Follow-On Offering (the “Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee” and together with the Class T Distribution and Servicing Fee, the “Distribution and Servicing Fee”).
(ii) Payment.
The Company will pay the Distribution and Servicing Fee to the Dealer Manager on a monthly basis in arrears. The Dealer Manager will reallow all of the Distribution and Servicing Fee to Participating Broker-Dealers as marketing fees or to defray other distribution-related expenses; provided, however, that, for Class T Shares, beginning June 1, 2017, a Participating Broker-Dealer may provide written notice (the “Waiver”) to the Dealer Manager that it will waive all or a portion of the reallowance of the Class T Distribution and Servicing Fee (the “Waived Amount”), and such Waiver shall be binding and irrevocable as to Participating Broker-Dealer, and shall only apply to Class T Shares sold through Participating Broker-Dealer on or after the Effective Waiver Date (as defined herein). The Waiver will become effective within three (3) business days of receipt by the Dealer Manager of such Waiver (the “Effective Waiver Date”). The Dealer Manager shall forward the Waiver to the Company within ten (10) business days of the Dealer Manager’s receipt of such Waiver. The Company will not pay to the Dealer Manager any Distribution and Servicing Fees in connection with the purchase of Class A Shares or Class I Shares or in connection with the purchase of Class T Shares or Class T2 Shares pursuant to the DRP.
(iii) Termination of Class T Distribution and Servicing Fee.
The Company will cease paying the Class T Distribution and Servicing Fee to the Dealer Manager upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) a listing of the Class T Shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) following the completion of the Initial Offering or the Follow-On Offering, as applicable, the date on which total underwriting compensation in such offering equals (a) 10% of the gross proceeds from such offering less (b) all Waived Amounts; (iii) there are no longer any Class T Shares outstanding; (iv) December 31, 2021, which is the fourth anniversary of the last day of the fiscal quarter in which the Primary Offering of the Initial Offering terminated; or (v) with respect to a Class T Share sold in the Primary Offering, the date on which the holder of such Class T share or its agent notifies the Company or its agent that he or she is represented by a new Participating Broker-Dealer; provided that the Company will continue paying the Distribution and Servicing Fee to the Dealer Manager, which shall reallow the Distribution and Servicing Fee to the Participating Dealer if the new Participating Dealer enters into a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with the Dealer Manager or otherwise agrees to provide the services set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement. The Company will not pay to the Dealer Manager any Distribution and Servicing Fees in connection with the purchase of any Class A Shares, Class I Shares or the purchase of any Class T Shares pursuant to the DRP.
(iv) Termination of Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee.
The Company’s obligations to pay the Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee to the Dealer Manager will survive until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) a listing of the Class T2 Shares on a national securities exchange; (ii) following the completion of the Follow-On Offering, the date on which total underwriting compensation in such offering equals 10% of the gross proceeds from the Follow-On Offering; (iii) there are no longer any Class T2 Shares outstanding; (iv) the end of the month in which the Company’s transfer agent, on behalf of the Company, determines that total underwriting compensation, including Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees, the Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee and other elements of underwriting compensation with respect to such Class T2 Share, would be in excess of 8.5% of the total gross investment amount at the time of purchase of such Class T2 Share in the Follow-On Offering; (v) the end of the month in which the Company’s transfer agent, on behalf of the Company, determines that the Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee with respect to such Class T2 Share would be in excess of 3.0% of the total gross investment amount at the time of purchase of such Class T2 Share in the Follow-On Offering; (vi) the date on which such Class T2 Share is repurchased by the Company; or (vii) the date on which the holder of such Class T2 Share or its agent notifies the Company or its agent that he or she is represented by a new Participating Broker-Dealer; provided that the Company will continue paying the Class T2 Distribution and Servicing Fee, which shall be reallowed to the new Participating Broker-Dealer, if the new Participating Broker-Dealer enters into a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement or otherwise agrees to provide the services set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement. At the time the Company ceases paying the Class T2 Distribution Servicing Fee with respect to a Class T2 Share pursuant to this Agreement, such Class T2 Share (and any shares issued under the DRP
with respect thereto) will convert into a number of Class I Shares (including any fractional shares) with an equivalent NAV as such share.
4. | Amendment to Section 4(c). |
Section 4(c) of the Dealer Manager Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(c) DEALER MANAGER FEE.

The Dealer Manager will receive a Dealer Manager Fee in an amount equal to up to 2.0% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of Class I Shares, of which 1.0% will be funded by the Advisor without reimbursement from the Company. The 1.0% of the Dealer Manager Fee with respect to Class I Shares that is paid from offering proceeds will be waived in the event an investor purchases Class I Shares through a registered investment adviser that is not affiliated with a broker dealer.

The Dealer Manager may reallow a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee, and the amounts paid by the Advisor to the Dealer Manager pursuant to this section, to Participating Broker-Dealers. The Dealer Manager’s reallowance of Dealer Manager Fees, and the amounts paid by the Advisor to the Dealer Manager, pursuant to this section to a particular Participating Broker-Dealer shall be as set forth in Schedule 1 to the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with such Participating Broker-Dealer.
The Company and the Advisor’s obligations to pay the amounts described in this Section 4(c) to the Dealer Manager with respect to a class of Shares will survive until the earliest to occur of (i) a listing of the Shares on a national securities exchange, (ii) the Shares no longer being outstanding, as a result of, without limitation, upon their redemption or other repurchase by the Company, upon the Company’s dissolution or upon a merger or extraordinary transaction to which
