Any compensation payable to any such third parties shall be paid by the Advisor.
(c) The Advisor acknowledges and agrees that the acquisition, financing, origination and disposition of any Project or Loan shall require the prior approval of the officers of the Company.
4. Basic Compensation. As its basic compensation for providing the above services, the Advisor shall receive an annual asset management fee (the “Asset Management Fee”), paid on a monthly basis, equal to 0.75% of the Gross Assets of the Company held on the last day of the month for which the payment is made. If the Company has not liquidated all of the Projects on or before the 5th anniversary of the Offering Termination Date (the “Fee Adjustment Date”), the Asset Management Fee shall be reduced to 0.375% of the Gross Assets of the Company beginning after the Fee Adjustment Date.
5. Additional Compensation. For its services in investigating and negotiating the acquisition, financing, origination and disposition of the Projects, the Loans and any other investments of the Company, the Advisor shall receive the following additional compensation:
(a) Acquisition Fee. An acquisition fee for each Project acquired by the Company equal to 1.4% of the contract purchase price of the Project, including funds allocated for any property improvement plan, which shall be paid at the closing of the acquisition.
(b) Financing Fee and Refinancing Fee. A financing fee (the “Financing Fee”) equal to 1.4% of the contract purchase price of the Project, including funds allocated for any property improvement plan, and a refinancing fee equal to 0.75% of the principal amount of the refinancing (the “Refinancing Fee”), which shall be paid at the closing of the financing or refinancing. The Financing Fee and the Refinancing Fee shall be in addition to any fee paid to a third-party in connection with such financing or refinancing.
(c) Disposition Fee. A disposition fee (the “Disposition Fee”) to be determined as follows:
(i) In the event of a sale, exchange or other disposition of a Project, a Disposition Fee equal to between 0.0% and 4.0% of the contract sales price of the Project which shall be paid at the closing of such disposition, to be determined as follows:
(A) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is negative or zero, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 0.0%.
(B) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is greater than zero but less than 5.0% on an annualized, non-compounded basis of the net capital investment (prior to any reduction for the Disposition Fee) per year following the Offering Termination Date, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 0.75%.
(C) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is greater than or equal to 5.0% but less than 10% on an annualized, non-compounded basis of the net capital investment (prior to any reduction for the Disposition Fee) per year following the Offering Termination Date, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 2.0%.
(D) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is greater than or equal to 10% but less than 15% on an annualized, non-compounded basis of the net capital investment (prior to any reduction for the Disposition Fee) per year following the Offering Termination Date, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 2.5%.
(E) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is greater than or equal to 15% but less than 20% on an annualized, non-compounded basis of the net capital investment (prior to any reduction for the Disposition Fee) per year following the Offering Termination Date, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 3.0%.
(F) In the event the Capital Gain on a Project is greater than 20% on an annualized, non-compounded basis of the net capital investment (prior to any reduction for the Disposition Fee) per year following the Offering Termination Date, the Disposition Fee percentage shall be 4.0%.
For the removal of doubt, the Advisor shall forgo any Disposition Fees that result in a net loss on the Project.
(ii) In the event that all or substantially all of the Company is sold, merged or otherwise transferred, the Disposition Fee will be calculated as follows and will be paid at the closing of such merger, sale or other transaction:
(A) The gross consideration per share will be determined by the Board (the “Share Price”);
(B) The Share Price will be added to any and all distributions (whether dividends or return of capital) made to the shareholders in excess of a 6% cumulative, but not compounded, return per annum (combined the “Total Return Per Share”);
(C) The Disposition Fee percentage will be obtained by utilizing the chart on Exhibit A; and
(D) The Disposition Fee percentage will be multiplied by the gross consideration received in such merger, sale or other transaction (as grossed up for all liabilities of the Company) to determine the Disposition Fee payable.
(d) Guarantee Fee. An annual guarantee fee (“Guarantee Fee”) due to certain Affiliates of the Advisor for debt obligations of the Projects owned by the Company and personally guaranteed by those Affiliates in the amount of 1.0% of the guaranty per year, payable monthly. Certain lenders may require personal guarantees to further secure credit facilities while others may not. In cases in which a personal guarantee is not required, no Guarantee Fee would apply.
(e) Subordinated Performance Fee. An annual subordinated performance fee (the “Performance Fee”) equal to 20% of the distributions after the Partners (including the General Partner but not the Series B Limited Partner) have received a 6.0% cumulative, but not compounded, return per annum. The Performance Fee amount will depend on the Company’s performance as well as the number of REIT Shares sold in the Offering and the period of time the investors continue to hold the Shares. The Performance Fee shall be paid annually in arrears no later than 90 days after the end of the Fiscal Year, and may be made in any form and from any source, including Offering proceeds, dividend reinvestment program proceeds, financing proceeds and/or cash flows.
(f) Real Estate Commissions. For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of a Project in which the Advisor or its Affiliate or agent provides substantial services, the Advisor (or its Affiliate or agent) shall receive a Real Estate Commission of up to 3.0% of the contract sales price of the Project; provided, however, that in no event shall such commission be greater than one-half of the total Real Estate Commission paid with respect to the sale of the Project if a Real Estate Commission is paid to both a third-party and the Advisor (or its Affiliate or agent). Further, in no event shall the sum of the Real Estate Commissions paid to the Advisor (or its Affiliate or agent) and unaffiliated third parties exceed 5.0% of the contract sales price of the Project. For purposes of this Section 5(h), “substantial assistance” in connection with the sale of a Project includes the preparation of an investment package for the Project (including an investment analysis, a property description and other due diligence information) or certain other substantial services performed by the Advisor or its Affiliate or agent in connection with such sale. In the event the entire Company is sold, merged or otherwise transferred, the Real Estate Commission will be due in an amount as if the Projects were all sold at their gross value based on the merger or sale consideration (as grossed up for liabilities).
(g) Distributions to Series B Limited Partner. Under the Partnership Agreement, the Advisor, as the Series B Limited Partner, will receive the distributions which are payable to the Series B Limited Partner as provided thereunder.

(b) Non-Reimbursable Acquisition Costs. The Company shall be solely responsible for, and the Advisor shall be reimbursed by the Company for any Acquisition Costs incurred by the Advisor and its Affiliates relating to potential Projects and Loans that are either not submitted to the Board for approval or are approved by the Board.

The Company, either directly or through the Advisor, may fund any Organization and Offering Expenses (including all Selling Commissions and Expenses) in excess of such 15% limitation during the Offering period, provided that, at the end of the Offering period, the Advisor must reimburse the Company for any Organization and Offering Expenses (including all Selling Commissions and Expenses)in excess of 15% of the gross proceeds of the Offering either by payment or by reduction of the Asset Management Fee.
