Β
SectionΒ 1.1Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Contribution Transactions.
Β
(a)Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β At the Closing and subject to and on the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Contributor shall contribute, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to the Company, all of the Holdings Interests (also sometimes referred to as the βContributed Assetsβ).Β The contribution of the Holdings Interests to the Operating Partnership shall be evidenced by the execution and delivery of a Contribution and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of ExhibitΒ C attached hereto and incorporated herein.
Β
(b)Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β The parties shall take such additional actions and execute such additional documentation as may be required by the Participating Entity Agreements or as requested in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Company or the Operating Partnership in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereby.
Β
SectionΒ 1.2Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Consideration forΒ Holdings Interests.Β In exchange for theΒ Holdings Interests contributed to the Operating Partnership by the Contributor, the Operating Partnership shall issue a certain number of Units to the Contributor based on the initial public offering price of the Common Stock as set forth below, such number of Units being referred to herein as the Contributorβs βConsiderationβ relating to theΒ Holdings Interests contributed hereunder.Β If the initial public offering price for the Common Stock is between $15.00 per share and $17.00 per share, then the Contributorβs Consideration shall be the number of Units set forth in the spreadsheet attached hereto and incorporated herein as ExhibitΒ K in the row corresponding with the initial public offering price of the Common Stock and the column entitled βSTAG IIIΒ Unitsβ.Β For example, if the initial pubic offering price for the Common Stock were $16.50 per share, the Consideration would beΒ 769,471 Units.Β If the initial public offering price for the Common Stock is less than $15.00 per share or more than $17.00 per share, then the Contributorβs Consideration shall be the number of Units determined by multiplying the Non-Venture Units (as hereinafter defined) by the Pro Rata Share.Β βPro Rata Shareβ means (a)Β the number of Units the Contributor would receive if the initial offering price of the Common Stock was $16.00 per share as set forth on ExhibitΒ K divided by (b)Β the Non-Venture Units if the initial public offering price of the Common Stock was $16.00 per share.Β The βNon-Venture Unitsβ meansΒ (y)Β the Total Units minus (z)Β the Venture Contributorβs Consideration.Β βVenture Contributorβs Considerationβ means the number of Units determined by dividing the Venture Contributorβs Value by the initial public offering price for the Common Stock.Β βVenture Contributors Valueβ means, if the initial public offering price for the Common Stock is less than $15.00 per share, $74,854,304, and if the initial public offering price for the Common Stock is greater than $17.00 per share, the sum of (A)Β $74,854,304 plusΒ (B)Β 64.3% of theΒ excess of (i)Β the product of theΒ Total Units multiplied by the initial public offering priceΒ per share of the Common Stock in the Public OfferingΒ overΒ (ii)Β $121,440,000, consistent with the allocation of Units when the initial public offering price for the Common Stock is between $16.01 per share and $17.00 per share as set forth on ExhibitΒ K attached hereto.Β In the event that, subsequent to the date of this Agreement but before the
Β
Β
closing of the Formation Transaction,Β the Common Stock or the units of limited partnership interest of the Operating Partnership issued and outstanding shall, through a reorganization, recapitalization, stock or unit dividend, stock or unit split or similar change in the capitalization of the Company or the Operating Partnership increase or decrease in number, then an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Consideration.
Β
SectionΒ 1.3Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Adjusted Consideration; Risk of Loss.
Β
(a)Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β At the Closing, (i)Β real estate taxes and assessments (including special assessments and, personal property taxes, if any), (ii)Β rental income (including base rents, additional rents, escalation charges, common area maintenance charges, imposition charges, heating and cooling charges, insurance charges, charges for utilities, percentage rent, and all other rents, charges and commissions paid by tenants to the Participating Entities), (iii)Β interest payable under loans secured by Permitted Liens, (iv)Β insurance premiums, (v)Β utilities serving the Properties, (vi)Β property management fees, (vii)Β prepaid charges, payment and accrued charges under any contracts entered into by Holdings or any Participating Entity with respect to the Properties and (viii)Β all other items of income and expense with respect to the Properties shall be prorated between the Contributor, on the one hand, and the Operating Partnership, on the other hand, with all such items attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date (as defined in SectionΒ 2.2) to be credited or charged to Contributor, and all such items attributable to the period commencing on the Closing Date to be credited or charged to the Operating Partnership.Β Except as otherwise provided in this SectionΒ 1.3, income and expenses shall be prorated on the basis of a 30-day month and on the basis of the accrual method of accounting.Β In addition, at Closing, the Contributor shall receive a credit equal to the amount of any reserves (other than any cash reserves established with the lender with respect to the Allocated Debt (the βLender Reservesβ)) established by Holdings or any Participating Entity with respect to the Properties (the βReservesβ).Β Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, to the extent that any tenant of a Property pays any of the expenses described in clausesΒ (i), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii)Β orΒ (viii)Β above directly to an applicable third party (and not as a reimbursement to a Participating Entity), such amounts shall not be prorated at Closing.Β The prorations to be performed hereunder shall be completed by the Company based on the partiesβ estimates as of the Closing, shall be evidenced by a closing statement prepared by the Company, shall be reconciled based on actual amounts when available, but in all events within ninety (90) days of Closing (the βReconciliation Periodβ), and shall be implemented through a cash payment from the Operating Partnership to the Contributor to the extent the prorations result in a net credit to the Contributor and a cash payment from the Contributor to the Operating Partnership to the extent the prorations result in a net charge to the Contributor.Β In addition, immediately prior to Closing, Holdings shall distribute to the Contributor any cash (other than Reserves and any security deposits then held by the Participating Entities under Leases for the Properties) then held by Holdings or any Participating Entity (to the extent not being transferred with the Contributed Assets as a proration in accordance with this SectionΒ 1.3(a)) and such cash shall not be contributed to the Operating Partnership with the Contributed Assets.Β On the Closing Date, in addition to the Consideration, the Operating Partnership shall pay to the Contributor by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds an amount equal to the Lender Reserves (but only to the extent the Lender Reserves and the obligation to maintain such Lender Reserves are not being released by the lender to the Contributor in connection with the Closing).Β The parties acknowledge that preparation of the closing statement will involve substantial time and effort because of the
Β
Β
number of Properties and hereby agree that the closing statement shall be prepared by the Company based on an assumption that the Closing takes place on the Estimated Closing Date.Β If the Closing actually takes place on a day other than the Estimated Closing Date, then, during the Reconciliation Period, the prorations shall be recalculated as of the actual Closing Date based on actual amounts and the Company shall prepare a revised closing statement, and to the extent such revised closing statement reveals that the Contributor received more or less cash than it should have received had the prorations included in the original closing statement not been based on estimated amounts and the Closing occurring on the Estimated Closing Date, then the Operating Partnership (if the Contributor received less cash than it should have received) or the Contributor (if the Contributor received more cash than it should have received), as applicable, shall make a cash payment to the other as necessary to make the cash received by the Contributor correct based on the revised closing statement.Β Finally, if the Allocated Debt is greater than or less than the Estimated Allocated Debt Amount, the difference (as well as any interest accruals or other charges or payments of the Allocated Debt for the period after Allocated Debt Determination Date and until the Closing Date) will be a proration item credited (to the extent the Allocated Debt is less than the Estimated Allocated Debt Amount) or charged (to the extent the Allocated Debt is greater than the Estimated Allocated Debt Amount) to the Contributor and adjusted in cash during the proration reconciliation process.Β The parties acknowledge that the Allocated Debt includes, inter alia, mezzanine debt secured in part by the Excluded Properties, which debt will be paid-off immediately upon Closing.
Β
(b)Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β The risk of loss relating to the Holdings Interests and the underlying Properties contributed hereunder prior to Closing shall be borne by the Contributor to the extent set forth in this SectionΒ 1.3(b).Β If, prior to the Closing, any Property is destroyed or materially damaged by fire or other casualty or taken by condemnation or similar proceeding, then the Company shall (a)Β cause the Operating Partnership to acquire the Holdings Interests (including, the Contributorβs indirect interests in any such Participating Entity that directly or indirectly owns the affected Property), (b)Β direct the Contributor to cause the Participating Entity or Participating Entities, as applicable, to pay or cause to be paid to the Operating Partnership any sums collected under any policies of insurance relating to such casualty or condemnation proceeds, as applicable, and otherwise assign to the Operating Partnership all rights to collect such sums as may then be uncollected, and (c)Β adjust or settle any insurance claim or condemnation proceeding.Β Under such circumstances, the pro rata share of the amount of any deductibles under the applicable insurance policies or award (except to the extent such deductibles are the responsibility of tenants under leases), plus all reasonable costs of collection shall be a proration item charged to the Contributor and adjusted in cash after the Closing during the proration reconciliation process in accordance with SectionΒ 1.3(a).
Β
SectionΒ 1.4Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Allocation of Consideration.Β In connection with the Closing, the Consideration shall be allocated for tax and accounting purposes among the Participating Entities (and to the extent necessary, among the Properties owned by a Participating Entity) as reasonably determined by the Company (in consultation with its independent public accountants).Β Each of the Contributor, the Company and the Operating Partnership agree to (a)Β be bound by such allocations, (b)Β act in accordance with the allocation in the preparation of financial statements and filing of all tax returns and in the course of any tax audit, tax review or tax litigation relating thereto, and (c)Β take no position, and cause their Affiliates to take no position, inconsistent with such allocations for income tax purposes.
Β
Β
SectionΒ 1.5Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Tax Treatment of Contribution.Β The contribution, transfer, conveyance and assignment of the Holdings Interests, Participating Equity Interests and/or Properties to the Operating Partnership from the Contributor is intended to be treated as a transaction qualifying under SectionΒ 721(a)Β of the Code.
Β
SectionΒ 1.6Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β SectionΒ 704(c)Β Method.Β The Operating Partnership shall use the βtraditional methodβ described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-3(b)Β with respect to the contributed Holdings Interests and the related Participating Entity Interests and underlying Properties, with no βcurative allocationβ of income or gain to offset any βshortfallβ in depreciation that results by reason of the use of the βtraditional method,β following any βBook-Up Eventβ (i.e.,Β a subsequent issuance of OPΒ Units (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement), an in-kind contribution of property to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OPΒ Units, or a redemption of OPΒ Units).

Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii)Β the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them and, in all such cases, the Indemnifying Party shall only be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.Β It is understood that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties not having actual or potential differing interests among them, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.Β In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by (i)Β in the case of Persons indemnified pursuant toΒ SectionΒ 2.7 hereof, the Selling Holders which owned a majority of the Registrable Securities sold under the applicable registration statement and (ii)Β in the case of Persons indemnified pursuant toΒ SectionΒ 2.8, the Company.Β The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any Loss (to the extent stated above) resulting from such settlement or judgment.Β No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding and does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party.
Β
SectionΒ 2.10Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Contribution.Β If the indemnification provided for in SectionΒ 2.7 or SectionΒ 2.8 hereof is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses , claims, damages or liabilities (i)Β as between the Company and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the securities, or if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Holders on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (ii)Β between the Company on the one hand and each Selling Holder on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of each Selling Holder in connection with such statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.Β The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Selling Holders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover pageΒ of the prospectus.Β The relative fault of the
Β
Β
Company and the Selling Holders on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Selling Holders or by the Underwriters.Β The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of each Selling Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party, and the partiesβ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.Β The Indemnifying Party shall not be required to contribute pursuant to thisΒ SectionΒ 2.10 if there has been a settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent.
Β
The Company and the Selling Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this SectionΒ 2.10 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.Β The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Losses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.Β Notwithstanding the provisions of this SectionΒ 2.10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total commissions and discounts received by such Underwriter in connection with the sale of the securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and no Selling Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds from the sale of the securities of such Selling Holder to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Selling Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.Β No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of SectionΒ 11(f)Β of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.Β The Selling Holderβs obligations to contribute pursuant to this SectionΒ 2.10 are several in proportion to the proceeds of the offering received by such Selling Holder bears to the total proceeds of the offering received by all the Selling Holders and not joint.
Β
SectionΒ 2.11Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Participation in Underwritten Registrations.Β No Person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Person (i)Β agrees to sell such Personβs securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii)Β completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, custodian agreementsΒ and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and these registration rights provided for in this ArticleΒ II.
Β
SectionΒ 2.12Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β RuleΒ 144.Β Until such date as no Holder owns any Registrable Securities, the Company covenants that it will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and that it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable Holders to sell Registrable
