The Company will: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto to become effective with the SEC as promptly as possible; (b) (i) promptly furnish the Dealer Manager with a copy of any comments of, or requests for additional or supplemental information from, the SEC, (ii) promptly advise the Dealer Manager of the receipt of any comments of, or requests for additional or supplemental information from, any state securities administrator, and upon request from the Dealer Manager promptly furnish the Dealer Manager with a copy of such comments or requests, and (iii) promptly advise the Dealer Manager of the time and date that the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective with the SEC; (c) timely file every amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that may be required by the SEC or under the Securities Act; and (d) if at any time the SEC shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the use of the Prospectus, or shall institute any proceedings for that purpose, promptly notify the Dealer Manager and, to the extent the Company determines such action is in the best interest of the Company, use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of such order, or to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible time. Prior to filing any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any pre-effective or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement with the SEC, the Company will use its best efforts to provide a draft of the filing to the Dealer Manager a reasonable time prior to the initial delivery of the proposed changes or amended filing to the financial printer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not file with the SEC any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any pre-effective or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which in any way materially amends, supplements or otherwise modifies (i) the section of the Prospectus entitled “Plan of Distribution” or (ii) any other material disclosure in the Prospectus regarding the Dealer Manager or Colony S2K Servicing LLC (the “Service Provider”) without first providing the Dealer Manager with a copy of such proposed filing and obtaining the Dealer Manager’s consent thereto, with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

2.2 Delivery of Registration Statement, Prospectus and Authorized Sales Materials. At the Dealer Manager’s reasonable written request, the Company will furnish the Dealer Manager, at no expense to the Dealer Manager, with (a) one signed copy of the Registration Statement, including its exhibits, and (b) such number of printed copies of the Registration Statement, including all amendments and exhibits thereto, and the Prospectus, including all amendments and supplements thereto, as the Dealer Manager may reasonably request. The Company also will furnish to the Dealer Manager and others designated by the Dealer Manager as many copies of the Authorized Sales Materials as the Dealer Manager may reasonably request in connection with the Offering (provided that the use of such Authorized Sales Materials has been previously approved for use by all applicable regulatory agencies).

2.3 Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify the Offered Shares for offering and sale under, or to establish the exemption of the offering and sale of the Offered Shares from qualification or registration under, the applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws of each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico (such jurisdictions in which qualifications or exemptions for the offer and sale of the Offered Shares are in effect as of a relevant date are referred to herein as the “Qualified Jurisdictions”), to file such documents and furnish such information as may be reasonably required for that purpose, and to maintain such qualifications or exemptions in effect throughout the Offering. In connection therewith, the Company will prepare and file all such post-sales filings or reports as may be required by the securities regulatory authorities in the Qualified Jurisdictions in which the Offered Shares have been sold, provided that the Dealer Manager shall have provided the Company with any information required for such filings or reports that is solely in the Dealer Manager’s possession and is reasonably requested by the Company. The Company will furnish to the Dealer Manager a blue sky memorandum, prepared and updated from time to time by counsel to the Company, naming the Qualified Jurisdictions, which shall be true and correct in all respects, and which the Dealer Manager shall rely upon in making offers and sales in such Qualified Jurisdictions. The Company will, at the Dealer Manager’s request, furnish the Dealer Manager with a copy of such documents and information filed by the Company in connection with such qualifications and exemptions. The Company will notify the Dealer Manager promptly following a change in the status of the qualification or exemption of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction in any respect, including any stop order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or of the institution of any proceedings for that purpose, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order, and if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting or removal of such order as promptly as possible. The Company will file and obtain clearance of the Authorized Sales Material to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations of the Qualified Jurisdictions.

2.4 Continued Compliance with Securities Act. If at any time when a Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (a) any event occurs, or the Company receives notice from the Dealer Manager that it believes an event has occurred, as a result of which the Prospectus or any Authorized Sales Materials could include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (b) it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Prospectus or Authorized Sales Materials to comply with the Securities Act or the Securities Act Regulations, the Company will promptly notify the Dealer Manager thereof (unless the information shall have been received from the Dealer Manager), and the Company will prepare and file with the SEC an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the relevant Authorized Sales Materials which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance to the extent required. Upon such an event, the Dealer Manager will notify the Participating Broker-Dealers to suspend the offering and sale of the Offered Shares in accordance with Section 4.10 hereof until such time as the Company, in its sole discretion (i) instructs the Dealer Manager to resume the offering and sale of the Offered Shares and (ii) has prepared any required supplemental or amended Prospectus or Authorized Sales Materials or otherwise effected compliance with the Securities Act.

2.5 Reporting Requests. The Company will comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act relating to the Company’s obligation to file and, as applicable, deliver to its stockholders, periodic reports including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

2.9 Certain Payments. Without the prior consent of the Dealer Manager, none of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their respective affiliates will make any payment (cash or non-cash) to any associated person or registered representative of the Dealer Manager.

2.10 Exclusivity. The Company and the Operating Partnership will work exclusively with the Dealer Manager to distribute the Offered Shares and any other securities of the Company publicly or privately sold or distributed through the independent broker-dealer distribution channel during the term of this Agreement.

2.11 Authority to Perform Agreements. The Company undertakes to obtain, and maintain, all consents, approvals, authorizations or orders of any court or governmental agency or body which are required for the Company’s performance of this Agreement and under the Company’s charter and bylaws for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, respectively, or the conducting by the Company of the business described in the Prospectus.

2.12 Use of Name and Logo. Other than with respect to use of Authorized Sales Materials or the Prospectus, the Company will not, without the Dealer Manager’s prior written consent, reproduce, distribute or in any manner use (a) the Dealer Manager’s name, brand, logo or trademark or any reasonably similar variant or derivative thereof or (b) the “S2K” name, brand, logo or trademark or any reasonably similar variant or derivative thereof.

Any expenses reimbursed pursuant to this Section 3.2 will be reimbursed to the Dealer Manager within thirty (30) days of the Dealer Manager’s presentation of a detailed and itemized invoice or receipt or such other documentation as the Company may deem acceptable for such expenses to the Company.

5.2 Compensation.

(a) Selling Commissions. Subject to volume discounts and other special circumstances disclosed in the section of the Prospectus titled “Plan of Distribution,” the Company will pay to the Dealer Manager up-front selling commissions in the amount of (collectively, “Selling Commissions”):

The Dealer Manager will reallow all Selling Commissions to the Participating Broker-Dealers who sold the Offered Shares giving rise to such Selling Commissions, as described in the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement entered into with such Participating Dealer.

(b) Dealer Manager Fee. Subject to the discounts and other special circumstances disclosed in the section of the Prospectus titled “Plan of Distribution,” the Company will pay to the Dealer Manager an up-front dealer manager fee of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Class K-I Shares, Class K Shares and Class K-T Shares in the Primary Offering (“Dealer Manager Fee”). The Company will not pay any Dealer Manager Fees with respect to the sale of (i) any shares of any class sold to the Advisor or its affiliates or (ii) any DRIP Shares.

The terms of the Dealer Manager’s reallowance of Dealer Manager Fees to a Participating Broker-Dealer shall be as set forth in Schedule 1 to the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with such Participating Broker-Dealer.

(i) Except as may be disclosed in the section of the Prospectus titled “Plan of Distribution,” the Company will pay to the Dealer Manager a stockholder servicing fee (the “Stockholder Servicing Fee”) with respect to each outstanding Class K-T Share sold in the Primary Offering in an amount equal to 1.0%, annualized, of the most recent estimated net asset value (“NAV”) per Class K-T Share on a continuous basis from year to year.

No Stockholder Servicing Fee will be paid with respect to Class K-T Shares that are DRIP Shares or Class K-T Shares sold to the Advisor, or its affiliates. The Dealer Manager may reallow all or a portion of the Stockholder Servicing Fee to the Participating Broker-Dealers who sold the Class K-T Shares giving rise to a portion of such Stockholder Servicing Fee, to the extent the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with such Participating Broker-Dealer provides for such a reallowance and such Participating Broker-Dealer is in compliance with the terms of such Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement related to such reallowance. The terms of the Dealer Manager’s reallowance of Stockholder Servicing Fee 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.

(ii) The Company will cease paying the Stockholder Servicing Fee with respect to all outstanding Class K-T Shares sold in the Primary Offering at the earlier of: (i) the end of the month in which the Company’s transfer agent, on the Company’s behalf, determines that the aggregate underwriting compensation (as defined in accordance with applicable FINRA Rules) paid from all sources in connection with the Offering equals 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Offered Shares in the Primary Offering, (ii) the listing of the Class K-I Shares, Class K Shares or Class K-T Shares (or any other class or series of the Company’s stock) on a national securities exchange, or (iii) the merger or consolidation of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Company will cease paying the Stockholder Servicing Fee with respect to any individual outstanding Class K-T Share sold in the Primary Offering at the earlier of: (i) the end of the month in which the Company’s transfer agent, on the Company’s behalf, determines that the total underwriting compensation (as defined in accordance with applicable FINRA Rules), including Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees, paid with respect to such Class K-T Share would be in excess of 10% of the total gross purchase price paid for such Class K-T Share in the Primary Offering, (ii) the end of the month in which the Company’s transfer agent, on the Company’s behalf, determines that the Stockholder Servicing Fee paid with respect to such Class K-T Share would be in excess of 3.0% of the total gross purchase price paid for such Class K-T Share in the Primary Offering, (iii) the date on which such Class K-T Share is repurchased by the Company, and (iv) the date on which the holder of such Class K-T Share or its agent notifies the Dealer Manager or its agent that such holder is represented by a new broker-dealer; provided, that the Company will continue paying the Stockholder Servicing Fee, which shall be reallowed to such new broker-dealer, if the new broker-dealer enters into a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement and becomes a Participating Broker-Dealer with respect to the Offering or otherwise agrees to provide the ongoing services set forth in the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement.

(iii) At the time the Company ceases paying the Stockholder Servicing Fee with respect to a Class K-T Share pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 5.2(c)(ii) above, such Class K-T Share (including any associated Class K-T Shares issued pursuant to the DRIP) will convert (A) into a number of Class K Shares (including any fractional Class K Shares) with an equivalent estimated NAV of such Class K-T Share as of the date of such conversion; provided, that in the case of a listing of any class or series of the Company’s stock on a national securities exchange, into one share (subject to pro rata adjustment, or any other adjustment deemed appropriate and equitable by the Company’s board of directors as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination or similar corporate event) of the class or series of stock that is listed, or (B) as otherwise set forth in the Prospectus and pursuant to the terms of the Company’s charter.

5.3 Obligations to Participating Broker-Dealers. Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees received by the Dealer Manager will be reallowed to Participating Broker-Dealers who sold the Primary Shares giving rise to such Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees pursuant to the terms of the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement entered into with such Participating Broker-Dealers. The Company will not be liable or responsible to any Participating Broker-Dealer for direct payment or reallowance of Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees or Stockholder Servicing Fees to any Participating Broker-Dealer, it being the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Dealer Manager for payment or reallowance of Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees to Participating Broker-Dealers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in its sole discretion, may act as agent of the Dealer Manager by making direct payment of Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees to Participating Broker-Dealers without incurring any liability therefor.

The Dealer Manager will, and the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with each Participating Broker-Dealer will require each Participating Broker-Dealer to, retain the documents and records referred to in subsection (f) in compliance with the record keeping requirements provided in Section 4.6 above and to make such documents and records available to (i) the Dealer Manager upon request, (ii) the Company upon request, and (iii) representatives of the SEC, FINRA and applicable state securities administrators upon the Dealer Manager’s receipt of an appropriate document subpoena or other appropriate request for documents from any such agency.

7.1 Indemnified Parties Defined. For the purposes of this Section 7, an entity’s “Indemnitees” shall include such entity’s officers, directors, employees, members, partners, affiliates, agents and representatives, and each person, if any, who controls such entity within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act.

7.2 Indemnification of the Dealer Manager and Participating Broker-Dealers. The Company and the Operating Partnership will, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealers, and their respective Indemnitees, from and against any losses, damages, claims, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in the investigation and defense thereof), joint or several, to which such Participating Broker-Dealers or the Dealer Manager, or their respective Indemnitees, may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise (“Losses”), insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (a) in whole or in part, any material inaccuracy in a representation or warranty contained herein by either the Company or the Operating Partnership, any material breach of a covenant contained herein by either the Company or the Operating Partnership, or any other material breach of this Agreement by the Company or the Operating Partnership, or any material failure by the Company or the Operating Partnership to perform its obligations hereunder or to comply with state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering, or (b) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (ii) any Authorized Sales Materials or (iii) any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company or on its behalf specifically for the purpose of qualifying any or all of the Offered Shares for sale under the securities laws of any jurisdiction or based upon written information furnished by the Company or the Operating Partnership under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”), or (c) the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials or any Blue Sky Application or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company and the Operating Partnership will reimburse each Participating Broker-Dealer or the Dealer Manager, and their respective Indemnitees, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Participating Broker-Dealer or the Dealer Manager, and their respective Indemnitees, in connection with investigating or defending such Losses (subject to Section 7.6); provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arise out of, or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished either (x) to the Company or the Operating Partnership by the Dealer Manager expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials or any Blue Sky Application, or (y) to the Company or the Operating Partnership by or on behalf of any Participating Broker-Dealer expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials or any Blue Sky Application. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which either the Company or the Operating Partnership may otherwise have.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as required by Section II.G. of the NASAA REIT Guidelines, the indemnification and agreement to hold harmless provided in this Section 7.2 is further limited to the extent that no such indemnification by the Company or the Operating Partnership of a Participating Broker-Dealer or the Dealer Manager, or their respective Indemnitees, shall be permitted under this Agreement for, or arising out of, an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws, unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (a) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (b) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; or (c) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which the securities were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.

7.3 Dealer Manager Indemnification of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Dealer Manager will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the Operating Partnership, their respective Indemnitees and each person who has signed the Registration Statement, from and against any Losses, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (a) in whole or in part, any material inaccuracy in a representation or warranty contained herein by the Dealer Manager, any material breach of a covenant contained herein by the Dealer Manager, or any other material breach of this Agreement by the Dealer Manager or material failure by the Dealer Manager to perform its obligations hereunder, (b) any untrue statement or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any (i) Registration Statement or in the Prospectus, (ii) any Authorized Sales Materials or (iii) any Blue Sky Application, (c) the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials or any Blue Sky Application or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided, however, that in each case described in clauses (b) and (c) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Dealer Manager expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials or any Blue Sky Application, (d) any use by the Dealer Manager of sales literature that is not Authorized Sales Materials or any use by the Dealer Manager of “broker-dealer use only” materials with members of the public, or (e) in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Shares, any untrue statement of a material fact made by the Dealer Manager or its representatives or agents or omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, other than statements or omissions made in conformity with the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Authorized Sales Materials, or any other materials or information furnished by or on behalf of the Company, and the Dealer Manager will reimburse the Company, the Operating Partnership, their respective Indemnitees and each person who has signed the Registration Statement for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending such Losses (subject to Section 7.6). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Dealer Manager may otherwise have.

7.4 Participating Broker-Dealer Indemnification of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Dealer Manager. By virtue of entering into a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement, each Participating Broker-Dealer severally will agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager, each of their respective Indemnitees, and each person who signs the Registration Statement, from and against any Losses to which the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager, or any of their respective Indemnitees, or any person who signed the Registration Statement, may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, as more fully described in each Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement.

7.5 Action Against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by any party entitled to seek indemnification under this Section 7 (an “indemnified party”) of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any party with an obligation to provide indemnification to such indemnified party under this Section 7 (an “indemnifying party”), promptly notify in writing the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability under this Section 7 as to the particular item for which indemnification is then being sought except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to participate in the defense thereof, with separate counsel. Such participation shall not relieve such indemnifying party of the obligation to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable legal and other expenses (subject to Section 7.6) incurred by such indemnified party in defending itself, except for such expenses incurred after the indemnifying party has deposited funds sufficient to effect the settlement, with prejudice, of, and unconditional release from, the claim in respect of which indemnity is sought. Any such indemnifying party shall not be liable to any such indemnified party on account of any settlement of any claim or action effected without the consent of such indemnifying party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

7.6 Reimbursement of Fees and Expenses. An indemnifying party under Section 7 of this Agreement shall be obligated to reimburse an Indemnified Party for reasonable legal and other expenses as set forth in this Section 7.6. The indemnifying party shall pay all reasonably incurred legal fees and expenses of the indemnified party in the investigation and defense of such claims or actions; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay legal expenses and fees to more than one law firm in connection with the defense of similar claims arising out of the same alleged acts or omissions giving rise to such claims notwithstanding that such actions or claims are alleged or brought by one or more parties against more than one indemnified party. If such claims or actions are alleged or brought against more than one indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall only be obliged to reimburse the expenses and fees of the one law firm that has been participating by a majority of the indemnified parties against which such action is finally brought; and in the event a majority of such indemnified parties is unable to agree on which law firm for which expenses or fees will be reimbursable by the indemnifying party, then payment shall be made to the first law firm of record representing an indemnified party against the action or claim. Such law firm shall be paid only to the extent of services performed by such law firm and no reimbursement shall be payable to such law firm on account of legal services performed by another law firm.

8. Contribution.

8.1 If the indemnification provided for in Section 7 hereof is for any reason unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager, a Participating Broker-Dealer or any Indemnified Party thereof in respect of any Losses referred to in Section 7 hereof for which such party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7 hereof, then the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such Losses as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, from the proceeds of the offering of the Primary Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

8.2 The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, in connection with the proceeds of the offering of the Primary Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Primary Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the relevant Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Stockholder Servicing Fees received by the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Primary Shares.

8.3 The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Company or the Operating Partnership, or by the Dealer Manager or the Participating Broker-Dealer, respectively, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

8.4 The Company, the Operating Partnership, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer (by virtue of entering into the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement) agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable contributions referred to above in this Section 8. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an Indemnified Party and referred to above in this Section 8 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

8.5 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer shall not be required to contribute any amount by which the total price at which the Primary Shares sold to the public by them exceeds the amount of any damages which the Dealer Manager and the Participating Broker-Dealer have otherwise been required to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

8.6 No party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

8.7 For the purposes of this Section 8, the Dealer Manager’s officers, directors, employees, members, partners, agents and representatives, and each person, if any, who controls the Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution of the Dealer Manager, and each of the officers, directors, employees, members, partners, agents and representatives of the Company and the Operating Partnership, respectively, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution of the Company and the Operating Partnership, respectively. The Participating Broker-Dealers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the number of Primary Shares sold by each Participating Broker-Dealer and not joint.

9. Survival of Provisions.

The respective agreements, representations and warranties of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Dealer Manager set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect until the Termination Date (as defined below) regardless of: (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Dealer Manager or any Participating Broker-Dealer or any person controlling the Dealer Manager or any Participating Broker-Dealer or by or on behalf of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any person controlling the Company; and (b) the delivery of payment for the Offered Shares. Following the Termination Date, this Agreement will become void and there will be no liability of any party to any other party hereto, except for obligations under Sections 5.2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14 (including the sections referenced therein for purposes of such surviving section), 16, 17, 18, 19, 21 and 23, all of which will survive the termination of this Agreement. The Dealer Manager’s obligation to pay the reallowance portions of the Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fee or Stockholder Servicing Fee that it has agreed to pay to Participating Broker-Dealers pursuant to Participating Broker-Dealer Agreements executed prior to the Termination Date will survive the termination of this Agreement, to the extent that the Dealer Manager has received or receives such amounts to be reallowed from the Company, unless and until the Company has provided written notice to the Dealer Manager that the Company or its agent will assume the responsibility to pay such reallowance amounts to such Participating Broker-Dealers.
