This Agreement shall be effective as of the effective date of the Company’s registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission containing the Prospectus (as defined below) (the “Effective Date”).
WHEREAS, the Company proposes to offer and sell, on a best-efforts basis through the Managing Dealer, in its capacity as the managing dealer, and selected broker-dealers that are registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or intermediaries that are exempt from such broker-dealer registration (the Managing Dealer and such intermediaries are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Participating Broker-Dealers”), the Company’s shares of Class A, Class T, Class D, and Class I limited liability interests (the “Shares”), on a best-efforts basis, for at least $2,000,000 and up to $1,100,000,000 of gross offering proceeds (including the shares of its Class A, Class T and Class I common stock to be offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan), at an initial purchase price of up to $27.32 per Class A share, $26.25 per Class T share, $25.00 per Class D and $25.00 per Class I share (the “Offering”) pursuant to an offering prospectus as amended from time to time and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of a registration statement file no. 333-222986, including amended for additional share classes (hereinafter the “Prospectus”); and
WHEREAS, the Company has agreed that the subscription price paid by subscribers for Shares (with interest) will be promptly refunded in full to such subscribers if subscriptions and payment for an aggregate of at least $2,000,000 in Shares of the Company in the Offering or in separate private offering transactions have not been received on or before the date that is one year from the Effective Date (the “Outside Date”); and
WHEREAS, the Company has also engaged the Escrow Agent to act as escrow agent in connection with the Company’s private offering (the “Private Offering”) pursuant to the Escrow Agreement dated July 5, 2017 (the “Private Offering Escrow Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to establish an escrow account for the Offering as further described herein in which funds received from subscribers will be deposited in such account and the Escrow Agent is willing to serve as escrow agent for such account upon the terms and conditions herein set forth; and
WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent had engaged DST Systems, Inc. (“DST”) to receive, examine for “good order” and facilitate subscriptions into the Escrow Account as further described herein and to act as record keeper, maintaining on behalf of the Escrow Agent the ownership records for the escrow account (the “Processing Agent”); and
WHEREAS, in so acting, DST shall be acting solely in the capacity as the Processing Agent for the Escrow Agent and not in any capacity on behalf of the Company or the Managing Dealer, nor shall the Company or the Managing Dealer have any interest, other than that provided in this Agreement, in assets in Processing Agent’s possession as the agent of the Escrow Agent; and
WHEREAS, in order to subscribe for Shares, a subscriber must deliver an executed subscription agreement in substantially the form attached as an exhibit to the registration statement encompassing the Prospectus, along with the full amount of its subscription, subject to volume discounts or other discounts, as applicable: (i) by check in U.S. dollars or (ii) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars (collectively, the “Subscription Payment”). The Company or the Managing Dealer shall instruct any Participating Broker-Dealers that any such wire transfers shall be in accordance with the instructions provided on Exhibit B hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, the parties covenant and agree as follows:
| 1. | Effective Date. This Agreement shall be effective on the date of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”). |
| 2. | Establishment of Escrow Account. On or prior to the commencement of the Effective Date, the Company shall establish a deposit account with the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Account”). All monies deposited in the Escrow Account, together with any interest earned thereon, are hereinafter referred to as the “Escrowed Funds.” The initial escrow period (the “Initial Escrow Period”) shall commence upon the effectiveness of this Agreement and shall continue until the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Escrow Agent receives written confirmation from the Company that the Company has raised an aggregate of at least $2,000,000 of gross proceeds either (a) in the Offering or (b) in separate private offering(s) of the Company’s shares occurring prior to or concurrent with the Offering (the “Minimum Proceeds”), (ii) the Outside Date, or (iii) the date upon which the Escrow Agent receives written confirmation from the Company of the termination of the Offering prior to the receipt of the Minimum Proceeds. The Initial Escrow Period together with the Post Escrow Break Period (as defined in Section 5(b)) shall collectively be referred to as the “Escrow Period.” The Escrow Account shall be an interest bearing account until notified by the Company after which time the Escrow Account shall not be an interest-bearing account and at such time all amounts deposited into the Escrow Account shall be held un-invested. Upon meeting the minimum offering period and breaking the Initial Escrow period, all interest earned on the Escrowed Funds shall be held separate and allocated to the Company. |
| 3. | Deposits into the Escrow Account and Transmission of Subscription Documents. |
| (a) | Deposits in Escrow Account. During the Escrow Period, persons subscribing to purchase Shares will be instructed by the Company and the Participating Broker-Dealers to make checks for subscriptions payable to the order of “UMB Bank, N.A., as EA for CNL Strategic Capital, LLC” or any variation thereof permitting a deposit in the Escrow Account if accompanied by a corresponding subscription agreement. Completed subscription agreements and checks in payment for the purchase price shall be remitted to the Processing Agent at the address designated for the receipt of such agreements and funds; and, drafts or wires shall be transmitted directly to the Escrow Account. The Processing Agent will promptly deliver all monies received in good order from subscribers (or from the Managing Dealer or other Participating Broker-Dealers transmitting monies and subscriptions from subscribers) for the payment of Shares to the Escrow Agent for deposit in the Escrow Account no later than the end of the business day on which such monies are received by the Processing Agent. Any Subscription Payments received prior to the time, if any, that the Escrowed Funds are deliverable to the Company, and that are made payable to a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be promptly returned to the Participating Broker-Dealer who submitted the Subscription Payment. Completed subscription agreements and checks shall be delivered by the Participating Broker-Dealer to the Processing Agent no later than the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the Participating Broker-Dealers; provided, however, if the Participating Broker-Dealers receives subscription agreements and checks at a branch office and final supervisory review is conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), then the branch office shall transmit the subscription agreements and checks to the Final Review Office by the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the branch office and the Final Review Office shall review the subscription agreements and check to ensure their proper execution and form and, if they are acceptable, deliver the subscription agreements and the funds to the Processing Agent by the close of business on the first business day after their receipt by the Final Review Office. All Escrowed Funds shall be held in the Escrow Account until such funds are disbursed in accordance with Section 5. Prior to the disbursement of Escrowed Funds, none of the Escrow Agent, the Processing Agent or the Company is entitled to any funds received into the Escrow Account, and no amounts deposited in the Escrow Account shall become the property of the Company, its affiliates, the Escrow Agent or the Processing Agent, nor be subject to the debts or offsets of the Company, its affiliates, the Escrow Agent, the Processing Agent or Participating Broker-Dealers. |

The Escrow Agent agrees to cause the Processing Agent to maintain a written account of each subscription, which account shall set forth, among other things, the following information: (i) the subscriber’s name and address, (ii) the number of Shares purchased by such subscriber, and (iii) the subscription amount paid by such subscriber for such Shares. |
| 4. | Collection Procedure for Subscription Payments. |

| (c) | In the event that the Company or any agent acting on behalf of the Company rejects any subscription for Shares and the funds for such subscription have already been collected by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt from the Company or the Processing Agent of written notice of such rejection, promptly cause the issuance of a refund payment by bank check to the rejected or withdrawing subscriber, with interest or income thereon, if applicable. If the Escrow Agent has not yet collected funds for such subscription but has submitted such subscription for clearing, the Escrow Agent shall promptly cause the issuance of a payment by bank check in the amount of such Subscription Payment to the rejected or withdrawing subscriber only after the Escrow Agent has cleared such funds. If the Escrow Agent has not yet submitted the Subscription Payment relating to the subscription of the rejected or withdrawing subscriber, the Escrow Agent shall promptly cause such Subscription Payment to be remitted to the drawer of the Subscription Payment submitted by or on behalf of the subscriber. |
| (d) | In the event that money is deposited into the Escrow Account in error, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Processing Agent in writing via mail, email or facsimile of any such error and promptly cause the issuance of a refund payment by bank check to the appropriate party only after the Subscription Payment has cleared. |
