Section 5.03 TAX MATTERS.

(a) So long as some portion of the Merger Consideration is in the form of OP Units, the parties hereto intend and agree that, for United States federal income tax purposes, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute an “assets-over” partnership merger within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(3)(i) pursuant to which the Management Company contributes all of its assets and liabilities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units in a transaction qualifying under Section 721(a) of the Code and immediately thereafter, the Management Company distributes such OP Units to the holders of Management Company Interests. As a result, (i) in accordance with Treasury Regulations

Section 1.708-1(c)(4), any payment of cash or REIT Shares attributable to a holder of Management Company Interests shall be treated as a sale by such holder of its Management Company Interests and a purchase of such interests by the Operating Partnership for the cash and/or REIT Shares so paid under the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) the Management Company shall cause each such holder of Management Company Interests who receives cash and/or REIT Shares to explicitly agree and consent (the “Sale Consent”) to such treatment in their Consent Forms as a condition to electing such consideration. To the extent the Operating Partnership acquires any Management Company Interests as described in clause (i) above, or otherwise previously acquired any such interests, for United States federal income tax purposes the receipt by the Operating Partnership of the portion of property attributable to such interests shall be treated as a distribution by the Management Company in redemption of such interests.

Notwithstanding Section 1.07 and Section 2.03(a), any cash paid as the Merger Consideration holder of Management Company Interests shall be paid only after the receipt of a Sale Consent from such holder of Management Company Interests.

(b) Each of the REIT, the Operating Partnership and the Management Company shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns related to the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and any audit, litigation or administrative, judicial or other inquiry or proceeding with respect to Taxes related to the transactions pursuant to this Agreement. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such action or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(c) The Operating Partnership shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all income Tax Returns of the Management Company which are due after the Closing Date. All such income Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(d) The Operating Partnership shall prepare or cause to be prepared all other Tax Returns of the Management Company.

(e) Prior to Closing, the Management Company shall deliver to the REIT a properly executed certificate prepared in accordance with Treasury Regulations section 1.1445-2(b) certifying the non-foreign status of the Management Company and of each holder of the Management Company Interests and any similar affidavits or other forms required under applicable state, local or foreign Tax Laws.

(f) Neither the REIT nor the Operating Partnership makes any representations or warranties to the Management Company or any holder of a Management Company Interest regarding the Tax treatment of the Merger or the other Formation Transactions, or with respect to any other Tax consequences to the Management Company or any holder of a Management

Company Interest of this Agreement, the Merger or the other Formation Transactions. The Management Company acknowledges that the Management Company and the holders of Management Company Interests are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other Formation Transactions and agreements contemplated hereby.

Section 5.04 CONSENT AND WAIVER OF RIGHTS UNDER ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS. As of the Closing, the Management Company waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits otherwise afforded to the Management Company (a) under its Organizational Documents including, without limitation, any rights of appraisal, rights of first offer or first refusal, buy/sell agreements, put, option, or similar parallel exit or dissenter rights in connection with the Formation Transactions and the Offering, and any right to consent to or approve of the sale or contribution or other transaction undertaken by any equity holder of the Management Company of their Management Company Interests to the REIT or any Affiliate thereof and any and all notice provisions related thereto and (b) for claims against any OP Party for breach by any of their respective present or former officers, directors, managing members, general partners or Affiliates of their fiduciary duties or similar obligations (including duties of disclosure) to any of their respective present or former shareholders, members, partners, equity interest holders or Affiliates or the terms of any applicable Organizational Documents. The Management Company acknowledges that the agreements contained herein and the transactions contemplated hereby and any actions taken in contemplation of the transactions contemplated hereby may conflict with, and may not have been contemplated by, the Organizational Documents of the Management Company or other agreements among one or more holders of Management Company Interests or one or more of the members of the Management Company. With respect to the Management Company and each property in which the Management Company Interests represent a direct or indirect interest, the Management Company expressly gives all consents (and any consents necessary to authorize the proper parties in interest to give all consents) and waivers it is entitled to give that are necessary or desirable to facilitate the contribution or other Formation Transactions relating to the Management Company or such property. In addition, the Management Company agrees that if the transactions contemplated hereby occur, this Agreement shall be deemed to be an amendment to the Organizational Documents of the Management Company to the extent the terms herein conflict with the terms thereof, including without limitation, terms with respect to allocations, distributions and the like. In the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not occur, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be or construed as an amendment or modification of, or commitment of any kind to amend or modify, the Organizational Documents of the Management Company, which shall remain in full force and effect without modification.

Section 5.05 EXCLUDED ASSETS. Prior to the Closing and after such amounts are reasonably determined, the Management Company shall distribute or cause to be distributed or paid out the Excluded Assets identified on Schedule 5.05.

Section 5.06 ALTERNATE TRANSACTION. In the event that the Operating Partnership determines that a structure change is necessary, advisable or desirable, the Operating Partnership may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to effect an Alternate Transaction

(subject to the limitations in the definition thereof), without the need for the OP Parties to seek any further consent or action from the Management Company, and the Management Company shall, and it shall cause its shareholders to, enter into such agreements as shall be necessary to consummate an Alternate Transaction.

Schedule 5.05

Excluded Assets

Excluded Assets consist of any excess of Net Working Capital over Target Net Working Capital.

“Net Working Capital” means current assets minus current liabilities of the relevant entity (on a stand-alone basis and without consolidating any Subsidiary of such entity) as of a date within forty five (45) days prior to the date of the preliminary Offering Document used in the Offering roadshow. Any Excluded Assets consisting of any excess of Net Working Capital of Target Working Capital shall be distributed or paid to the Pre-Formation Participants in the relevant entity immediately prior to the consummation of the Offering after determination by the REIT. The REITs determination of such amount shall be final and binding on all Pre-Formation Participants.

“Target Net Working Capital” means zero with respect to all entities.

Schedule 6.02(c)

Calculation of Equity Value

For purposes of all Formation Transaction Documentation, “Equity Value” of any Target Asset shall be calculated pursuant to the formula set forth below. Capitalized terms used in this Schedule 6.02(c) shall have the meanings set forth below and capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.

EV = EP x [TFTV-TPA]+AA;

where:

EV = Equity Value;

EP = Unadjusted Equity Percentage;

TFTV= Total Formation Transaction Value;

TPA = Total Portfolio Adjustment; and

AA = Asset Adjustment;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Equity Value attributable to any Capital Contributions (as such term is defined in the RIF V Fund’s and the RIF V REIT’s respective Organizational Documents) made to or applied by the RIF V Fund or RIF V REIT during the Interim Period will be an amount equal to the Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount. The Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount (if any) is intended to provide reasonable compensation to investors in RIF V Fund and RIF V REIT for Capital Contributions (if any) made to or applied by these entities after the Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx’ Fairness Opinion. To accomplish this, these Capital Contributions are treated separately from the Target Assets, and the Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount (if any) is included in the Total Portfolio Adjustment without creating a related Asset Adjustment. The result is that the Total Formation Transaction Value allocable to the Target Assets will be reduced by an amount equal to the Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount (if any), and such amount will be allocated to investors in the RIF V Fund and RIF V REIT in accordance with the Organizational Documents of each such entity.

Attached as Appendix A to this Schedule 6.02(c) are illustrative calculations of Equity Value for a hypothetical portfolio of Target Assets.

“Actual Balance” shall mean: (i) with respect to each Existing Loan to be assumed in connection with the Offering, the unpaid principal amount of and past due unpaid interest on such Existing Loan as of the Offering Closing Date and immediately prior to any such assumption and all assumption fees and any related expenses with respect to such Existing Loan; and (ii) with respect to each Existing Loan to be prepaid, repaid or refinanced in connection with the Offering, the unpaid principal amount of and past due unpaid interest on such Existing Loan as of the Offering Closing Date and immediately prior to any such prepayment, repayment or refinancing and any related prepayment penalties and any related expenses. With respect to each Existing Loan to be assumed, prepaid, repaid or refinanced in connection with the Formation

Transactions, the Actual Balance as of the Closing Date shall be determined by the REIT within forty-five (45) days prior to the date of the preliminary Offering Document used in the Offering roadshow based on its good faith estimate of what such amounts will be as of the Offering Closing Date.

“Asset Adjustment” shall mean with respect to each Target Asset and any Existing Loan relating to such Target Asset, an amount equal to the Base Balance minus the Actual Balance (expressed as a positive or negative number, as applicable) with respect to all Existing Loans relating to such Target Asset. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Asset Adjustment shall be made with respect to the pay down in the amount of $2,914,349.17 on the Existing Loan relating to the Target Asset referred to as “Broadway” in Appendix B to Schedule 6.02(c).¹

“Base Balance” shall mean with respect to each Existing Loan, the principal amount of such Existing Loan set forth on Appendix C to this Schedule 6.02(c).

“Eliminated Asset” shall mean any Target Asset subject to the Formation Transaction Documentation, or any interest therein, that is excluded pursuant to the terms of the Formation Transaction Documentation from the Formation Transactions.

“Excluded Assets” has the meaning set forth in Section 6.02(l) to the Agreement.

“Existing Loan” shall mean each loan directly secured by a Target Asset listed on Appendix C to this Schedule 6.02(c) and (ii) all other indebtedness of a Xxxxxxx Entity or of an entity in which a Xxxxxxx Entity has a direct or indirect interest that will be assumed, prepaid, repaid or refinanced in connection with the Offering and that is set forth on Appendix D to this Schedule 6.02(c) (all indebtedness falling within the scope of this clause (ii) shall be referred to as “Entity Specific Debt”). Existing Entity Specific Debt will be deemed to relate to the Target Asset(s) and, if to multiple Target Assets, in the proportions set forth opposite the name of such Entity Specific Debt on Appendix D to this Schedule 6.02(c), and all such Entity Specific Debt will be deemed to have a Base Balance of zero (because “Unadjusted Equity Percentage” as determined by Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, Inc. was determined at the property level and did not take into account Entity Specific Debt, Entity Specific Debt is deemed to be zero in order to cause a readjustment of “Equity Value” of all Target Assets after taking into account such Entity Specific Debt).

The Unadjusted Equity Percentage set forth in Appendix D to Schedule 6.02(c) for the Target Asset referred to as “Broadway” was originally attributable to a property referred to as “Xxxxxxxx” in the Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx Fairness Opinion. After the date of such opinion, the Xxxxxxxx asset was exchanged for the Broadway asset, plus a cash payment equal to the difference between the market value of the Xxxxxxxx asset and the market value of the Broadway asset. Such cash payment was then used to pay down a portion of the Entity Specific Debt previously allocated to the Xxxxxxxx asset (and now allocated to the Broadway asset), so an equitable result is achieved by applying the Unadjusted Equity Percentage set forth in Appendix B to Schedule 6.02(c) and the amount of Entity Specific Debt (prior to the pay down) set forth in Appendix D to Schedule 6.02(c) that were each previously allocated to the Xxxxxxxx Property to the Broadway Property, and not making an adjustment in connection with the pay down of such Entity Specific Debt that occurred.

“Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount” shall mean the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Capital Contributions (as such term is defined in the RIF V Fund’s and the RIF V REIT’s respective Organizational Documents) (x) made by partners or members therein during the Interim Period and applied by RIF V Fund or RIF V REIT, as applicable, for investment or other permitted purpose during the Interim Period or (y) made by such partners or members prior to the Interim Period but applied by such entity for investment or other permitted purpose during the Interim Period, plus (ii) a return on such Capital Contributions at an annualized rate of eight (8) percent for the period commencing on the date on which each such Capital Contribution is made (or, in the case of clause (y), applied) and ending on the Closing Date.

“Interim Period” means the period commencing on January 1, 2013 and ending on the Closing Date.

“Target Asset” shall mean each Property (or partial ownership interest in a Property) set forth on Appendix B to this Schedule 6.02(c) and the Management Companies.

“Target Net Working Capital” has the meaning set forth in Schedule 5.05 to the Agreement.

“Total Portfolio Adjustment” shall mean the sum (which may be a positive or negative number) of (i) all Asset Adjustments, excluding Asset Adjustments for any Eliminated Assets, and (ii) the Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount.

“Total Formation Transaction Value” shall mean the aggregate dollar value of (i) the cash, (ii) the REIT Shares and (iii) the OP Units that are issued or issuable to all Pre-Formation Participants in the Formation Transactions as set forth in the Offering Document. Total Formation Transaction Value will be determined valuing REIT Shares and OP Units at a value per REIT Share or OP Unit equal to the Offering Price.

“Unadjusted Equity Percentage” shall mean with respect to each Target Asset, the percentage (expressed as a decimal) set forth opposite the name of such Target Asset on Appendix B to this Schedule 6.02(c) (which percentage is based on the Fairness Opinion of Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, Inc. and represents such Target Asset’s percentage of the net asset values of the Target Assets (other than the Management Companies) and the net equity value of the Management Companies, taken as a whole); provided, however, that in the event a Target Asset is selected as or otherwise becomes for any reason an Eliminated Asset, then: (i) the Unadjusted Equity Percentage for each remaining Target Asset shall be recalculated as a fraction, the numerator of which is the original Unadjusted Equity Percentage for such remaining Target Asset and the denominator of which is (A) 100 minus (B) the original Unadjusted Equity Percentage of the Eliminated Asset; and (ii) the Unadjusted Equity Percentage of the Eliminated Asset shall be zero.

Appendix A to Schedule 6.02(c)

Worked Examples

The figures and calculations included in this Appendix A are for illustrative purposes only and are based on a hypothetical portfolio of properties. The goal of the examples below is to help investors better understand how the Equity Value formula operates and may be impacted by different types of possible changes in the assets comprising the REIT’s portfolio or the debt relating to the Target Assets prior to Closing. Accordingly, the examples have been highly simplified, using numbers that facilitate easy math.

The hypotheticals below assume that:

•

The Target Assets that will be acquired by the REIT in the Formation Transactions consist of five industrial centers, one of which is owned by each of the five Xxxxxxx Funds.

•

Each of the Target Assets in this hypothetical portfolio will be wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the REIT at the Closing.

•

Each Target Asset is subject to a $25 property-level mortgage, but no fund-level Entity Specific Debt.

•

Each Target Asset was determined by a third-party valuator to have a relative equity value equal to 20% of the entire portfolio.

In addition, the “Base Case” hypothetical below assumes that the initial Total Formation Transaction Value, or “TFTV,” for this entire portfolio of properties as of December 31, 2012 was $500. The subsequent hypothetical examples demonstrate how circumstances after December 31, 2012 but prior to the Closing, or that otherwise were not reflected in the Fairness Opinion, may impact Total Formation Transaction Value (TFTV), and how those changes affect the equity value allocable to each of the five Target Assets.

The following summarizes the “Base Case” portfolio for purposes of the hypotheticals below:


Target Asset	Unadjusted Equity Percentage (“EP”) (determined by Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, Inc. in the Fairness Opinion)	Property Holding Companies & Ownership %
RIF I Industrial Center	20%		Company A (100%)
RIF II Industrial Center	20%		Company B (100%)
RIF III Industrial Center	20%		Company C (100%)
RIF IV Industrial Center	20%		Company D (100%)
RIF V Industrial Center	20%		Company E (100%)
Total	100%

Example 1 - Base Case

Applying the Equity Value formula to the “Base Case” summarized above, and assuming that (i) there is no Entity Specific Debt (see Example 3 for a discussion of Entity Specific Debt) and (ii) the mortgage debt on each of the five properties does not change between December 31 and Closing and that there are no assumption or prepayment fees associated with assuming or prepaying those mortgages at the Closing, the Equity Value of each of the five properties is as set forth below:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [500 - 0] + 0
RIF II Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [500 - 0] + 0
RIF III Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [500 - 0] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [500 - 0] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [500 - 0] + 0
Total Equity Value		500

“EP” = Unadjusted Equity Percentage

“TFTV” = Total Formation Transaction Value

“TPA” = Total Portfolio Adjustment (see below)

“AA” = Asset Adjustment (see below)

Example 2 – Mortgage Payoff

In this example, all of the facts described in the Base Case above are the same, except that we assume that prior to the completion of the Formation Transactions, the $25 mortgage on RIF I Industrial Center reaches maturity and is paid off, such that at the time that the RIF I Industrial Center is acquired by the Operating Partnership, it is not subject to any mortgage debt. This results in the following variation of the variable “AA” in the formula as applied to the RIF I Industrial Center:


Property		Asset Adjustment (“AA”) (i.e., Base Balance -Actual Balance)
RIF I Industrial Center		25 = 25 - 0
RIF II Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
RIF III Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
RIF IV Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
RIF V Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
Total Portfolio Adjustment (“TPA”)		25

In effect, RIF I has repaid debt using $25 that otherwise would have been available for distribution to RIF I investors as part of the pre-Closing working capital distribution. Because the aggregate outstanding mortgage debt that will be assumed by the Operating Partnership at the Closing has decreased by $25 (without using funds from the Offering), we assume that the Total Formation Transaction Value would increase by the same amount, from $500 to $525.

Because the burden of creating this increase in TFTV has been borne solely by investors in RIF I (who otherwise would have received an additional $25 in the pre-Closing working capital distributions), the Equity Value formula works to allocate the increase in TFTV solely to the RIF I Industrial Center by virtue of the $25 Asset Adjustment calculated above, as set forth below:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		125 = 20% x [525 - 25] + 25
RIF II Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [525 - 25] + 0
RIF III Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [525 - 25] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [525 - 25] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [525 - 25] + 0
Total Equity Value		525

Example 3 – Entity Specific Debt

In this example, all of the facts described in the Base Case above are the same, except that we assume that (i) Company B is 100% owned by an upper-tier entity, “Holdings,” that will be acquired by the Operating Partnership in the Formation Transactions, (ii) Holdings is subject to $50 of Entity Specific Debt that will be assumed by the Operating Partnership at the Closing (for simplicity’s sake, we assume no assumption fee) and (iii) the $50 of Entity Specific Debt is allocated to RIF II Industrial Center. This results in the following variation of the variable “AA” in the formula as applied to RIF II Industrial Center:


Property		Asset Adjustment (“AA”) (i.e., Base Balance -Actual Balance)
RIF I Industrial Center		0 = 00 - 00
XXX XX Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx		-00 = 25 - 75
RIF III Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
RIF IV Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
RIF V Industrial Center		0 = 25 - 25
Total Portfolio Adjustment (“TPA”)		-50

As noted above, M&S’s Fairness Opinion takes into account only asset-level debt in determining the relative unadjusted equity percentages of the Target Assets. Entity Specific Debt is allocated to relevant properties in the relevant Funds directly through the Equity Value formula. As demonstrated below, the effect is to increase the relative value of properties that are not burdened by Entity Specific Debt, and correlatively decrease the value of properties that are subject to Entity Specific Debt.

The Equity Value formula accomplishes this by reflecting that TFTV decreases as a result of Entity Specific Debt. In the specific example above, because the aggregate outstanding debt that will be assumed by the Operating Partnership at the Closing now includes Holdings’ $50 of Entity Specific Debt, Total Formation Transaction Value would decrease by the same amount, from $500 to $450, relative to the Base Case.

The Equity Value formula allocates the $50 decrease in TFTV solely to RIF II Industrial Center, and does not impact the Equity Value of the other Target Assets, as set forth below:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [450 - (-50)] + 0
RIF II Industrial Center		50 = 20% x [450 - (-50)] + (-50)
RIF III Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [450 - (-50)] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [450 - (-50)] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [450 - (-50)] + 0
Total Equity Value		450

Example 4 – RIF V Subsequent Investment

In this example, all of the facts described in the Base Case above are the same, except that we assume that prior to the completion of the Formation Transactions, RIF V Fund calls $50 in Capital Contributions to acquire additional assets and the acquisitions are made exactly 3 months prior to the completion of the Formation Transactions.

Recall that, under the definition of “Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount,” this $50 of invested Capital Contributions is deemed to earn a flat return equal to 8.0% per annum, so, after 3 months, the $50 of invested Capital Contributions produces a Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount of $51.00 (3 months is a quarter of a year – so, one-quarter of 8.0% (i.e., 2.0%), multiplied by $50, nets $1.00 in appreciation on the $50 of invested Capital Contributions). Accordingly, $51.00 of Equity Value ($50.00 + $1.00) will be allocated to these additional assets (and therefore to Fund V investors) at the Closing.

The impact (if any) of this subsequent investment on the portion of TFTV allocated to the five existing Target Assets will depend on how much value the public attributes to these subsequently acquired assets in the Offering (as a result of the pre-IPO total equity value (as measured by the IPO price) being an amount other than $551), as demonstrated below.

For example, if the subsequent acquisition by RIF V Fund results in a $51 increase in TFTV, from $500 to $551, the Equity Value of each of the five existing Target Assets would be unchanged from the Base Case, as set forth below:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [551 - 51] + 0
RIF II Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [551 - 51] + 0
RIF III Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [551 - 51] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [551 - 51] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		100 = 20% x [551 - 51] + 0
Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount		51= 50 + [0.08 x 50 x (3/12)]
Total Equity Value		551

If instead we assume that the subsequent acquisition by RIF V Fund results in a $55 increase in TFTV, from $500 to $555, the Equity Value of each of the five existing Target Assets would increase as follows:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		100.80 = 20% x [555 - 51] + 0
RIF II Industrial Center		100.80 = 20% x [555 - 51] + 0
RIF III Industrial Center		100.80 = 20% x [555 - 51] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		100.80 = 20% x [555 - 51] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		100.80 = 20% x [555 - 51] + 0
Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount		51= 50 + [0.08 x 50 x (3/12)]
Total Equity Value		555

If instead we assume that the subsequent acquisition by RIF V Fund results in only a $45 increase in TFTV, from $500 to $545, the Equity Value of each of the five existing Target Assets would decrease as follows:


Property		Equity Value = EP x [TFTV - TPA] + AA
RIF I Industrial Center		98.80 = 20% x [545 - 51] + 0
RIF II Industrial Center		98.80 = 20% x [545 - 51] + 0
RIF III Industrial Center		98.80 = 20% x [545 - 51] + 0
RIF IV Industrial Center		98.80 = 20% x [545 - 51] + 0
RIF V Industrial Center		98.80 = 20% x [545 - 51] + 0
Fund V Subsequent Investment Amount		51= 50 + [0.08 x 50 x (3/12)]
Total Equity Value		545

It is possible that more than one of the types of transactions described in Examples 2-4 above could occur prior to Closing and, as a result, the formula could produce multiple adjustments to the Total Equity Value and the Equity Values of the various properties.
