The Performance Fee will equal 25.0% of the difference between (i) the Annual Total Return and (ii) the amount required to provide the Stockholders an Annual Total Return of 6% for the measurement period (the “Priority Return”).

The Base NAV is subject to downward adjustment in the event that the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, determines that such an adjustment is necessary to provide an appropriate incentive to the Advisor to perform in a manner that seeks to maximize stockholder value and is in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or similar change in the Company’s capital structure, the Base NAV shall be ratably adjusted to reflect the effect of any such event. The Advisor will begin the Performance Fee calculation for each share class with respect to each calendar year by taking the sum of (i) the Ending NAV for such class and (ii) the cumulative distributions per share for such class for the year, and then (iii) subtracting the Starting NAV per share for such class; provided, however, that if the Starting NAV for such class is less than the Base NAV for such class, the Base NAV shall be used as the Starting NAV for purposes of this calculation for such class. The Advisor will then divide the resulting amount by the Starting NAV for such class (or, if the Base NAV for such class is used as the Starting NAV pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Base NAV for such
8
class) to calculate the total return per share for such class, expressed as a percentage. If the total return per share for such class exceeds 6% and the Ending NAV for such class is greater than the Base NAV for such class, then the Performance Fee is calculated by multiplying the excess percentage (the percentage above 6%) by 25.0%, and then multiplying the resulting amount by the Starting NAV for such class (or, if the Base NAV for such class is used as the Starting NAV in the total return calculation for such class, the Base NAV for such class). Finally, that amount is multiplied by the weighted average number of shares of such class outstanding during the year (to reflect share issuances and/or share redemptions during the year) to arrive at the total amount of the Performance Fee payable for such class, subject to the limitation set forth above that in no event will the Performance Fee exceed 10.0% of the Annual Total Return for the calendar year for which the Performance Fee is being determined.
(d) Beginning January 1, 2019, the Performance Fee will be payable annually in arrears in an amount equal to:
(i) First, if the Total Return for the year exceeds the sum of (A) the Hurdle Amount for that year and (B) the Loss Carryforward Amount (any such excess, “Excess Profits”), 100% of such annual Excess Profits until the total amount allocated to the Advisor equals 12.5% of the sum of (x) the Hurdle Amount for that year and (y) any amount allocated to the Advisor pursuant to this clause; and
(ii) Second, to the extent there are remaining Excess Profits, 12.5% of such remaining Excess Profits.
Any amount by which Total Return falls below the Hurdle Amount that does not constitute Loss Carryforward Amount will not be carried forward to subsequent years.
The measurement of the change in NAV per Share for the purpose of calculating the Total Return is subject to adjustment by the Board to account for any dividend, split, recapitalization or any other similar change in the Company’s capital structure or any Distributions that the Board deems to be a return of capital if such changes are not already reflected in the Company’s net assets.
The Advisor will not be obligated to return any portion of the Performance Fee paid due to the subsequent performance of the Company.
(e) The Performance Fee for each calendar year for which the fee is payable shall be paid on or before the earlier of (y) promptly after the audited financial statements for such calendar year become available, or (z) March 15 of the year following such calendar year, provided that if this Agreement or its term expires without renewal prior to December 31 of any calendar year, then the Performance Fee for such partial year shall be payable promptly after the Company files its unaudited financial statements on Form 10-Q for the quarter that includes the Termination Date, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the partial year for such quarterly unaudited financial statements. The Performance Fee shall be payable for each calendar year in which this Agreement is in effect, even if the Agreement is in effect for less than a full calendar year.
(f) The Fees are payable in cash, unless the Company or the Operating Partnership elects, with the Advisor’s consent, to pay in any class of Shares, a promissory note or any combination of the foregoing.
(g) In the event the Company or the Operating Partnership commences a liquidation of its Investments during any calendar year, the Company will pay the Advisor the Fees from the proceeds of the liquidation and the Performance Fee will be calculated at the end of the liquidation period prior to the distribution of the liquidation proceeds to the Stockholders.
(h) In the event this Agreement is terminated or its term expires without renewal, the Fees will be calculated and due and payable after the calculation of NAV on the Termination Date. If the Fees are payable with respect to any partial calendar month or calendar year, the Advisory Fee will be prorated based on the number of days elapsed during any partial calendar month and the Performance Fee will be prorated based on the number of days elapsed during any partial calendar year and annual Total Return achieved for the period of such partial calendar year.
3.02 Expenses.
(a) As required by the NASAA Guidelines, Organization and Offering Expenses paid by the Company will not exceed 15.0% of Gross Proceeds from the sale of Shares in the Offering.
(b) In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, the Company or the Operating Partnership shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with the services it provides to the Company and the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:

(vii) expenses of managing and operating Assets and Other Investments owned by the Company, whether payable to an Affiliate of the Company, including wages and salaries and other personnel related expenses, unless otherwise waived, in whole or in part, by the Affiliate in its sole discretion, of all on-site and off-site employees of the Affiliate who are engaged in the operation, management, maintenance and leasing or access control of the Asset, or to a non-affiliated Person;
(viii) all expenses in connection with payments to the Board for attending meetings of the Board and Stockholders;
(ix) expenses associated with the issuance and distribution of Shares and other securities of the Company, such as underwriting fees, advertising expenses, legal and accounting fees, taxes and registration fees;
(x) expenses connected with payments of Distributions in cash or otherwise made or caused to be made by the Company to the Stockholders (xi) expenses of organizing, reorganizing, liquidating or dissolving the Company or of amending the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws;
(xi) expenses of any third-party transfer agent for the Shares and of maintaining communications with Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities;
(xii) administrative service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by Advisor in fulfilling its duties hereunder. Such costs and expenses may include reasonable wages and salaries and other personnel-related expenses of all employees of Advisor or its Affiliates who are engage in the management, administration, operations, and marketing of the Company and its Assets, including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses which are directly related to their services provided hereunder; and (xiv) audit, accounting and legal fees, and other fees and expenses associated with regulatory compliance.
(c) Expenses, other than Organization and Offering Expenses, incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and the Operating Partnership and payable pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor within 60 days after the end of each month. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership during each month, and shall deliver such statement to the Company and the Operating Partnership within forty-five (45) days after the end of each month.
(d) Organization and Offering Expenses incurred by the Advisor shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor within twenty-eight (28) days after the end of each month. The aggregate amount reimbursed each month can never exceed 0.75% of the aggregate Gross Proceeds from the sale of Shares in the Offering, including shares issued in connection with the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, but excluding selling commissions charged on Class D Shares, Class T Shares and Class S Shares sold in the primary offering. If the sum of the total unreimbursed amount of such Organization and Offering Expenses, plus new Organization and Offering Expenses incurred since the last reimbursement payment, exceeds the reimbursement limit described in the previous sentence for the applicable monthly installment, the excess will be eligible for reimbursement in subsequent months (subject to the 0.75% limit) calculated on an accumulated basis, until the Advisor has been reimbursed in full. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the Organization and Offering Expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership during each month, and shall deliver such statement to the Company and the Operating Partnership within twenty (20) days after the end of each month.
(e) The expense reimbursements payable to the Advisor are payable in cash, unless the Company or the Operating Partnership elects, with the Advisor’s consent, to pay in Shares, a promissory note or any combination of the foregoing.
3.03 Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Section 2.02, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are
10
agreed by the Advisor and the Board, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
3.04 Reimbursement to the Advisor. The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor, at the end of any fiscal quarter, for any Operating Expenses to the extent that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) the Operating Expenses exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of (i) 2% of Average Invested Assets or (ii) 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) for that period of four consecutive quarters unless the Independent Directors determine that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which the Independent Directors deem sufficient. If the Independent Directors do not approve such excess as being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If the Independent Directors determine such excess was justified, then within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total reimbursed Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of the Independent Directors, shall send our stockholders written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. The Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
