Partnership. The OP Management Fee may be paid, at the Advisor’s election, in cash or cash equivalent aggregate net asset value amounts of Class I units of the Operating Partnership. If the Advisor elects to receive any portion of its Management Fee in Class I Common Shares or Class I units of the Operating Partnership, the Advisor may elect to have the Company or the Operating Partnership repurchase such Class I Common Shares or Class I units of the Operating Partnership from the Advisor at a later date at a repurchase price per Class I Common Share or Class I unit, as applicable, equal to the NAV per Class I Common Share. Class I Common Shares and Class I units of the Operating Partnership obtained by the Advisor will not be subject to the repurchase limits of the Company’s share repurchase plan or any reduction or penalty for an early repurchase. The Operating Partnership will repurchase any such Operating Partnership units for cash unless the Board determines that any such repurchase for cash would be prohibited by applicable law or the Charter, in which case such Operating Partnership units will be repurchased for Class I Common Shares with an equivalent aggregate NAV. The Advisor will have the option of exchanging Class I Common Shares for an equivalent aggregate NAV amount of Class T Common Shares, Class S Common Shares or Class D Common Shares and will have registration rights with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock.
(c) In the event this Agreement is terminated or its term expires without renewal, the Advisor will be entitled to receive its prorated Management Fee through the date of termination. Such pro ration shall take into account the number of days of any partial calendar month or calendar year for which this Agreement was in effect.
(d) In the event the Company or the Operating Partnership commences a liquidation of its Investments during any calendar year, the Company and the Operating Partnership will pay the Advisor the Management Fee from the proceeds of the liquidation.”

The Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, embodies the entire understanding of the parties, supersedes any prior agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, and cannot be altered, amended, supplemented, or abridged, or any provisions waived except by the written consent of the parties.
4. Counterparts.
