BLACK CREEK INDUSTRIAL REIT IV INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” and “BCI IV” refers to Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in the annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been omitted. As such, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 5, 2020 (“2019 Form 10-K”).

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with GAAP.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”), which updates various codification topics to simplify the accounting guidance for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, with a specific focus on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2020-06 when it becomes effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2021. The Company’s initial analysis indicates that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2020-03”), which updates various codification topics related to financial instruments by clarifying or improving the disclosure requirements to align with the SEC’s regulations. The Company adopted this standard immediately upon its issuance. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments only apply to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after March 12, 2020, with early adoption permitted, through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into after December 31, 2022. The Company adopted this standard immediately upon its issuance. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2020, the FASB issued a Staff Question-and-Answer to clarify whether lease concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 require the application of lease modification guidance under the new lease standard, which the Company adopted on January 1, 2019. The guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. However, its future impact to the Company is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to customers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering such concessions. It is not possible at this time to accurately project the nature or extent of any such possible future concessions.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10, “Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2020-10”), which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving disclosure requirements to align with the SEC’s regulations. The Company adopted this standard immediately upon its issuance. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture Partnerships

The Company analyzes its investment in an unconsolidated joint venture under GAAP to determine if the joint venture is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether the requisite substantial participating rights described in the GAAP are held by the partners not affiliated with the Company. If the joint venture is not a VIE and the partners not affiliated with the Company hold substantial participating rights, the Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost (including direct acquisition costs) and subsequently adjusted to reflect the Company’s proportionate share of equity in the joint venture’s net income (loss), distributions received, contributions made and certain other adjustments made, as appropriate, which is included in investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The proportionate share of ongoing income or loss of the unconsolidated joint venture partnerships is recognized in equity in loss of unconsolidated joint venture partnerships on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The outside basis portion of the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture partnerships is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the joint ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

When circumstances indicate there may have been a reduction in the value of an equity investment, the Company evaluates whether the loss is other than temporary. If the Company concludes it is other than temporary, an impairment charge is recognized to reflect the equity investment at fair value. No impairment losses were recorded related to the Company’s investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. See “Note 5” for additional information regarding the Company’s investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships.

Revenue Recognition

The Company must make estimates as to collectability of its accounts receivable related to rental income and straight-line rent. Management analyzes accounts receivable by considering customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, including the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on customers’ businesses, and customers’ ability to make payments on time and in full when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2020, the impact of COVID-19 on customer collectability has been minimal and has not had a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2020 was approximately $6,000 and the Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2019.

5. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE PARTNERSHIPS

On July 15, 2020, the Company acquired, from a subsidiary of Industrial Property Trust (“IPT”), interests in two joint venture partnerships with third party investors for purposes of investing in industrial properties located in certain major U.S. distribution markets. The Company reports its investments in the Build-To-Core Industrial Partnership I LP (the “BTC I Partnership”) and the Build-To-Core Industrial Partnership II LP (the “BTC II Partnership” and, together with the BTC I Partnership, the “BTC Partnerships”) under the equity method on its consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence in each partnership but does not have control of the entities. See “Note 10” for further discussion of the transaction. The following table summarizes the Company’s investment in the BTC Partnerships:

As of September 30, 2020, the book value of the Company’s investment in the BTC Partnerships was $301.3 million, which includes $168.2 million of outside basis difference. The outside basis difference represents the difference between the purchase price paid by the Company for the minority ownership interests in the joint venture partnerships, which was based on fair value, and the book value of the Company’s share of the underlying net assets and liabilities of the joint venture partnerships. This difference is a result of the fair value of the real estate and noncurrent nonfinancial assets and promote receivable at acquisition.

(1) The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.10%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.30% to 1.10%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Customary fall-back provisions apply if LIBOR is unavailable. The line of credit is available for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, the acquisition and operation of permitted investments by the Company. As of September 30, 2020, total commitments for the line of credit were $315.0 million and the unused and available portions under the line of credit were both $314.9 million.
(2) The effective interest rate is calculated based on either (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.05%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.05%, depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements. As of September 30, 2020, total commitments for the term loan were $415.0 million, and there were no unused nor available amounts. This term loan is available for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, the acquisition and operation of permitted investments by the Company.
(3) Interest rates range from 3.59% to 3.75%. The assets and credit of each of the Company’s consolidated properties pledged as collateral for the Company’s mortgage notes are not available to satisfy the Company’s other debt and obligations, unless the Company first satisfies the mortgage notes payable on the respective underlying properties.
(4) The weighted-average remaining term of the Company’s consolidated debt was approximately 3.5 years as of September 30, 2020, excluding any extension options on the line of credit.

As of September 30, 2020, the principal payments due on the Company’s consolidated debt during each of the next five years and thereafter were as follows:

Table of Contents

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) that regulates LIBOR announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”), which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative rate for LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. The Company is not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR markets. Any changes adopted by the FCA or other governing bodies in the method used for determining LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR. If that were to occur, our interest payment could change. In addition, uncertainty about the extent and manner of future changes may result in interest rate and/or payments that are higher or lower than if LIBOR were to remain available in the current form.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s line of credit and term loan are the only consolidated indebtedness with maturities beyond 2021 that have exposure to LIBOR. The agreement governing the term loan provides procedures for determining a replacement or alternative base rate in the event that LIBOR is discontinued. However, there can be no assurances as to whether such replacement or alternative base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has interest rate swaps in place to hedge LIBOR on $350.0 million of commitments under its term loan. The Company intends to monitor the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with its lenders to seek to ensure any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on its financial condition, but can provide no assurances regarding the impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR.

Debt Covenants

The Company’s line of credit, term loan and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2020.

Derivative Instruments

To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable-rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Certain of the Company’s variable-rate borrowings are not hedged, and therefore, to an extent, the Company has on-going exposure to interest rate movements.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the same period that the hedged transaction affects earnings, which is when the interest expense is recognized on the related debt. The gain or loss on the derivative instrument is presented in the same line item on the condensed consolidated statement of operations as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that approximately $3.5 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense related to active effective hedges of existing floating-rate debt.

The following table summarizes the location and fair value of the cash flow hedges on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies it believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Company would realize upon disposition of its financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Derivative Instruments. The derivative instruments are interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps are standard cash flow hedges whose fair value is estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models involve using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements, which the Company has concluded are not material to the valuation. Due to the interest rate swaps being unique and not actively traded, the fair value is classified as Level 2. See “Note 6” above for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.

8. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Public Offerings

On September 5, 2019, the Company’s initial public offering was terminated immediately upon effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement for its follow-on public offering of up to $2.0 billion of shares of its common stock, and the follow-on public offering commenced the same day. Under the follow-on public offering, the Company is offering up to $1.5 billion of shares of its common stock in the primary offering and up to $500.0 million of shares of its common stock pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan, in any combination of Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares. The Company may reallocate amounts between the primary offering and distribution reinvestment plan. The Company’s follow-on public offering is a continuous offering that will end no later than September 5, 2021, unless extended in accordance with federal and state securities laws.

Pursuant to its public offerings, the Company offered and continues to offer shares of its common stock at the “transaction price,” plus applicable selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The “transaction price” generally is equal to the net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Company’s common stock most recently disclosed. The Company’s NAV per share is calculated as of the last calendar day of each month for each of its outstanding classes of stock, and will be available generally within 15 calendar days after the end of the applicable month. Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan are offered at the transaction price, as indicated above, in effect on the distribution date. The Company may update a previously disclosed transaction price in cases where the Company believes there has been a material change (positive or negative) to its NAV per share relative to the most recently disclosed monthly NAV per share.

The Company shows these as reimbursements to the Advisor to the same extent that the Company recognizes the related share-based compensation on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company reimbursed the Advisor approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $2.0 million and $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, for such compensation expenses.

(3) The Company is reimbursing the Advisor for all organization and offering costs incurred on its behalf as of December 31, 2019 ratably over 60 months. Since January 1, 2020, the Company either pays directly or reimburses the Advisor for offering costs as and when incurred.

Joint Venture Partnerships

Interests Purchase

On July 15, 2020, the Company acquired interests in two portfolios comprised of 64 acquired or completed buildings and 18 buildings under construction or in the pre-construction phase. As a result of the acquisition, the Company owns a 19.9% limited partner interest in the BTC I Partnership, a 0.1% general partner interest in the BTC I Partnership, a 7.9% limited partner interest in the BTC II Partnership, and a 0.1% general partner interest in the BTC II Partnership (collectively, the “Interests”). The purchase price for the Interests was $301.0 million in cash paid at closing, exclusive of due diligence expenses and other closing costs. The Company funded the acquisition of the Interests using proceeds from its public offering.

The Company acquired the Interests from Industrial Property Operating Partnership LP (“IPT OP”), a subsidiary of IPT, which was a Maryland statutory trust that was advised by Industrial Property Advisors LLC (the “IPT Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company’s Advisor. IPT terminated its existence on July 28, 2020, following the sale of its interests in the BTC Partnerships. The Company and IPT also had certain common officers. Certain former officers of IPT and certain former trustees of the IPT board of trustees (the “IPT Board”) are also stockholders of the Company. Prior to the termination of IPT, the Company and IPT were also sponsored by affiliates of Black Creek Group, LLC, and such sponsors held partnership units in the operating partnerships of the Company and IPT, respectively, and certain former trustees of IPT were also members of the Company’s board of directors. The IPT Board and the Company’s board of directors each established a special committee of independent trustees or directors, as applicable, to review and approve the agreements between the Company and IPT OP and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the sale of the Interests. The members of the IPT special committee did not overlap with members of the Company’s special committee, and none of the members of the Company’s special committee were trustees of IPT. All of the members of the Company’s special committee were disinterested in the transactions, including the sale of the Interests. Each of the special committees engaged legal counsel and an independent financial advisor to assist the special committees in their evaluation and negotiation of the transactions. CBRE Capital Advisors, Inc., the independent financial advisor to the IPT special committee, delivered a fairness opinion to the IPT special committee. Duff & Phelps, the independent financial advisor to the Company special committee, delivered a fairness opinion to the Company special committee. The agreements between the Company and IPT OP and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the sale of the Interests, were approved by the special committees of each of the Company and IPT.

BTC I Services Agreement and Incentive Distributions Sharing

Pursuant to the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the BTC I Partnership, as amended (the “BTC I Partnership Agreement”), the Company, as the general partner of the BTC I Partnership (the “BTC I GP”) will provide, directly or indirectly by appointing an affiliate or a third party, acquisition and asset management services and, to the extent applicable, development management and development oversight services (the “BTC I Advisory Services”). As compensation for providing the BTC I Advisory Services, the BTC I Partnership will pay the BTC I GP, or its designee, certain fees in accordance with the terms of the BTC I Partnership Agreement. On February 12, 2015, the BTC I GP and IPT Advisor and an entity owned by affiliates of the Advisor, entered into an agreement that the IPT Advisor subsequently assigned to Industrial Property Advisors Sub I LLC (the “BTC I SLP”), an entity owned by affiliates of the Advisor. Pursuant to this agreement (the “BTC I Services Agreement”), the BTC I GP appointed the BTC I SLP to provide the BTC I Advisory Services and assigned to the BTC I SLP the fees payable pursuant to the BTC I Partnership Agreement for providing the BTC I Advisory Services. As a result of the payment of the fees pursuant to the BTC I Services Agreement, the fees payable to the Advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement will be reduced by the product of (i) the fees actually paid to the BTC I SLP pursuant to the BTC I Services Agreement, and (ii) the percentage interest of the BTC I Partnership owned by the Company through its general partner and limited partner interests.

In connection with the sale of the Interests, the parties to the BTC I Services Agreement amended such agreement to make certain conforming changes to reflect the new indirect ownership structure of the BTC I Partnership as a result of the sale of the Interests.

In addition, the BTC I Partnership Agreement contains procedures for making distributions to the parties, including incentive distributions to the BTC I GP and the BTC I SLP, which are subject to certain return thresholds being achieved. The BTC I GP and the BTC I SLP have agreed to split such incentive distributions such that the BTC I SLP will receive 60% of the incentive distributions attributable to interests in the BTC I Partnership which are not owned by the BTC I GP or the BTC I LP.

Pursuant to the BTC I Partnership Agreement, the partners will be obligated to make capital contributions in proportion to their respective partnership interests with respect to each approved investment as well as with respect to any additional capital calls the BTC I GP makes from time to time, including with respect to the funding of incentive distributions, certain preservation costs, certain limited operating and capital variances and other items.

Table of Contents

Pursuant to an agreement between the BTC I SLP and the subsidiaries through which the Company owns its general partner and limited partner interests in the BTC I Partnership, dated September 15, 2016, if the Company proposes to transfer all (but not less than all) of its respective interests in the BTC I Partnership to an unrelated third party, then the Company can require the BTC I SLP to transfer its special limited partnership interest to the purchaser on the same terms and conditions.

BTC II Services Agreement and Incentive Distributions Sharing

Pursuant to the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the BTC II Partnership, as amended (the “BTC II Partnership Agreement”), the Company, as the general partner of the BTC II Partnership (the “BTC II GP”) will provide, directly or indirectly by appointing an affiliate or a third party, acquisition and asset management services and, to the extent applicable, development management and development oversight services (the “BTC II Advisory Services”). As compensation for providing the BTC II Advisory Services, the BTC II Partnership will pay the BTC II GP, or its designee, certain fees in accordance with the terms of the BTC II Partnership Agreement. On May 19, 2017, the BTC II GP and Industrial Property Advisors Sub III LLC (the “BTC II Service Provider”), an entity owned by affiliates of the Advisor, entered into that certain agreement (the “BTC II Services Agreement”), pursuant to which the BTC II GP appointed the BTC II Service Provider to provide the BTC II Advisory Services and assigned to the BTC II Service Provider the fees payable pursuant to the BTC II Partnership Agreement for providing the BTC II Advisory Services. As a result of the payment of the fees pursuant to the BTC II Services Agreement, the fees payable to the Advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement will be reduced by the product of (i) the fees actually paid to the BTC II Service Provider pursuant to the BTC II Services Agreement, and (ii) the percentage interest of the BTC II Partnership owned by the Company through its general partner and limited partner interests.

In connection with the sale of the Interests, the parties to the BTC II Services Agreement amended such agreement to make certain conforming changes to reflect the new indirect ownership structure of the BTC II Partnership as a result of the sale of the Interests.

In addition, the BTC II Partnership Agreement contains procedures for making distributions to the parties, including incentive distributions to the BTC II GP and Industrial Property Advisors Sub IV LLC (the “BTC II SLP”), an entity owned by affiliates of the Advisor, which are subject to certain return thresholds being achieved. The BTC II GP and the BTC II SLP have agreed to split such incentive distributions such that the BTC II SLP will receive 80% of the incentive distributions attributable to interests in the BTC II Partnership which are not owned by the Company through its general partner and limited partner interests.

Pursuant to the BTC II Partnership Agreement, the partners will be obligated to make capital contributions in proportion to their respective partnership interests with respect to each approved investment as well as with respect to any additional capital calls the BTC II GP makes from time to time, including with respect to the funding of incentive distributions, certain preservation costs, certain limited operating and capital variances and other items.

Joint Venture Partnership Fees

For the period from July 16, 2020 through September 30, 2020, the BTC Partnerships (as described in “Note 5”) incurred in aggregate approximately $2.9 million in acquisition and asset management fees, which were paid to affiliates of the Advisor pursuant to the respective service agreements. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had amounts due from the BTC Partnerships in aggregate of approximately $14,000, which were recorded in due from affiliates on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Advisory Agreement

On July 15, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of the Interests, the Company, BCI IV Operating Partnership LP, the Company’s operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Advisor entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (2020), dated as of June 12, 2020. Amendment No. 1 provides that the Advisor shall receive a development fee in connection with providing services related to the development, construction, improvement or stabilization, including tenant improvements, of development properties or overseeing the provision of these services by third parties on behalf of the Company. The fee will be an amount that will be equal to 4.0% of total project cost of the development property (or the Company’s proportional interest therein with respect to real property held in joint ventures or other entities that are co-owned). If the Advisor engages a third party to provide development services, the third party will be compensated directly by the Company, and the Advisor will receive the development fee if it provides development oversight services.

12. SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Currently, one of the most significant risks and uncertainties is the adverse effect of the current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The extent of the impact from COVID-19 on the commercial real estate sector continues to vary dramatically across real estate property types and markets, with certain property segments such as hospitality, gaming, shopping malls, senior housing, and student living being impacted particularly hard. While not immune to the effects of COVID-19, the industrial property sector in which the Company invests continues to remain relatively resilient; however, the Company has had customers request rent deferral or rent abatement during this pandemic. The outbreak has triggered a period of global economic slowdown and could trigger a global recession.

The COVID-19 pandemic could have material and adverse effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in the near term due to, but not limited to, the following:

reduced economic activity severely impacts the Company’s customers’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause customers to be unable to fully meet their obligations to the Company or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations, resulting in increases in uncollectible receivables and reductions in rental income;
the negative financial impact of the pandemic could impact the Company’s future compliance with financial covenants of the Company’s credit facility and other debt agreements; and
weaker economic conditions could cause the Company to recognize impairment in value of its tangible or intangible assets.

The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how it will impact its customers and business partners. While the Company did not incur significant disruptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is unable to predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties and the impact could be material. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s operations and those of the Company’s customers will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company and the Operating Partnership are not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries.

OVERVIEW

General

Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on August 12, 2014 to make investments in income-producing real estate assets consisting primarily of high-quality distribution warehouses and other industrial properties that are leased to creditworthy corporate customers. We currently operate as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and elected to be treated as a REIT beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2017. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership.

On September 5, 2019, our initial public offering was terminated immediately upon the effectiveness of our registration statement for our follow-on public offering of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock, and the follow-on public offering commenced the same day. Under the follow-on public offering, we are offering up to $1.5 billion of shares of our common stock in our primary offering and up to $500.0 million of shares of our common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, in any combination of Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares. We may reallocate amounts between the primary offering and distribution reinvestment plan. Our follow-on public offering is a continuous offering that will end no later than September 5, 2021, unless extended in accordance with federal securities laws.

Pursuant to our public offerings, we offered and continue to offer shares of our common stock at the “transaction price,” plus applicable selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The “transaction price” generally is equal to the net asset value (“NAV”) per share of our common stock most recently disclosed. Our NAV per share is calculated as of the last calendar day of each month for each of our outstanding classes of common stock, and is available generally within 15 calendar days after the end of the applicable month. Shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan are offered at the transaction price, as indicated above, in effect on the distribution date. We may update a previously disclosed transaction price in cases where we believe there has been a material change (positive or negative) to our NAV per share relative to the most recently disclosed monthly NAV per share. See “Net Asset Value” below for further detail.

As of September 30, 2020, we had raised gross proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion from the sale of 128.9 million shares of our common stock and the issuance of notes payable in our public offerings, including shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. See “Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for information concerning our public offerings.

On July 15, 2020, we acquired minority ownership interests in two joint venture partnerships, the BTC I Partnership and the BTC II Partnership, with third party investors for $301.0 million in cash paid at closing, exclusive of due diligence expenses and other closing costs. As of the date of acquisition, the joint venture partnerships’ aggregate real estate portfolios consisted of 64 acquired or completed buildings and 18 buildings under construction or in the pre-construction phase.

As of September 30, 2020, we owned and managed, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships (which are presented as if we own a 100% interest), a total real estate portfolio that included 124 industrial buildings totaling approximately 29.4 million square feet located in 23 markets throughout the U.S., with 191 customers, and was 81.1% occupied (86.3% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 4.8 years. The occupied rate reflects the square footage with a paying customer in place. The leased rate includes the occupied square footage and additional square footage with leases in place that have not yet commenced. As of September 30, 2020, our total real estate portfolio included:

108 industrial buildings totaling approximately 26.0 million square feet comprised our operating portfolio, which includes stabilized properties, and was 90.8% occupied (94.3% leased); and

25


Table of Contents

16 industrial buildings totaling approximately 3.4 million square feet comprised our value-add portfolio, which includes buildings acquired with the intention to reposition or redevelop, or buildings recently completed which have not yet reached stabilization. We generally consider a building to be stabilized on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of a building’s shell completion or a building achieving 90% occupancy.

Of our total portfolio, we owned and managed 67 buildings totaling approximately 17.5 million square feet through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships (as described in “Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”).

Through September 30, 2020, we had directly acquired 57 buildings comprised of approximately 11.9 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $1.2 billion, as well as the minority ownership interests in the two joint venture partnerships, as described above. Also, through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, we completed the development of three industrial buildings comprising an aggregate of 1.0 million square feet and total costs to complete the development of approximately $91.7 million during the period from July 16, 2020 through September 30, 2020. We funded these acquisitions and development activity primarily with proceeds from our public offering, institutional equity and debt financings.

We have used, and intend to continue to use, the net proceeds from our offerings primarily to make investments in real estate assets. We may use the net proceeds from our offerings to make other real estate-related investments and debt investments and to pay distributions. The number and type of properties we may acquire and debt and other investments we may make will depend upon real estate market conditions, the amount of proceeds we raise in our offerings, and other circumstances existing at the time we make our investments.

Our primary investment objectives include the following:

preserving and protecting our stockholders’ capital contributions;
providing current income to our stockholders in the form of regular cash distributions; and
realizing capital appreciation upon the potential sale of our assets or other liquidity events.

There is no assurance that we will attain our investment objectives. Our charter places numerous limitations on us with respect to the manner in which we may invest our funds. In most cases these limitations cannot be changed unless our charter is amended, which may require the approval of our stockholders.

We may acquire assets free and clear of mortgage or other indebtedness by paying the entire purchase price in cash or equity securities, or a combination thereof, and we may selectively encumber all or only certain assets with debt. The proceeds from our borrowings may be used to fund investments, make capital expenditures, pay distributions, and for general corporate purposes.

We expect to manage our corporate financing strategy under the current mortgage lending and corporate financing environment by considering various lending sources, which may include long-term fixed-rate mortgage loans, unsecured or secured lines of credit or term loans, private placement or public bond issuances, and the assumption of existing loans in connection with certain property acquisitions, or any combination of the foregoing.

Net Asset Value

Our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures, as amended from time to time, that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. With the approval of our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, we have engaged Altus Group U.S., Inc., a third-party valuation firm, to serve as our independent valuation advisor (“Altus Group” or the “Independent Valuation Advisor”) with respect to providing monthly real property appraisals, reviewing annual third-party real property appraisals, reviewing the internal valuations of debt-related assets and liabilities performed by our Advisor, helping us administer the valuation process for the real properties in our portfolio, and assisting in the development and review of our valuation procedures. As part of this process, our Advisor reviews the estimates of the values of our real property portfolio, real estate-related assets, and other assets and liabilities within our portfolio for consistency with our valuation guidelines and the overall reasonableness of the valuation conclusions, and informs our board of directors of its conclusions. Although the Independent Valuation Advisor or other pricing sources may consider any comments received from us or our Advisor or other valuation sources for their individual valuations, the final estimated fair values of our real property assets are determined by the Independent Valuation Advisor and real estate-related assets and other assets and liabilities are determined by the applicable pricing source. With respect to the valuation of our real property assets, the Independent Valuation Advisor provides our board of directors with periodic valuation reports and is available to meet with our board of directors to review valuation information, as well as our valuation guidelines and the operation and results of the valuation process generally. Unconsolidated real property assets held through joint ventures or partnerships are valued according to the valuation procedures set by such joint ventures or partnerships. At least once per year, each unconsolidated real property asset will be appraised by a third-party

26


Table of Contents

appraiser. If the valuation procedures of the applicable joint ventures or partnerships do not accommodate a monthly determination of the fair value of real property assets, we will determine the estimated fair value of the unconsolidated real property assets for those interim periods. All parties engaged by us in connection with the calculation of our NAV, including Altus Group, ALPS Fund Services Inc. (“ALPS”) and our Advisor, are subject to the oversight of our board of directors. Our board of directors has the right to engage additional valuation firms and pricing sources to review the valuation process or valuations, if deemed appropriate. At least once each calendar year our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, reviews the appropriateness of our valuation procedures with input from the Independent Valuation Advisor. From time to time our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, may adopt changes to the valuation procedures if it: (1) determines that such changes are likely to result in a more accurate reflection of NAV or a more efficient or less costly procedure for the determination of NAV without having a material adverse effect on the accuracy of such determination; or (2) otherwise reasonably believes a change is appropriate for the determination of NAV. We will publicly announce material changes to our valuation procedures or the identity or role of the Independent Valuation Advisor or ALPS. See Exhibit 99.2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed description of our valuation procedures, including important disclosures regarding real property valuations provided by the Independent Valuation Advisor.

Our valuation procedures, which address specifically each category of our assets and liabilities and are applied separately to the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, involve adjustments from historical cost. There are certain factors which cause NAV to be different from net book value on a GAAP basis. Most significantly, the valuation of our real estate assets, which is the largest component of our NAV calculation, is provided to us by the Independent Valuation Advisor on a monthly basis. For GAAP purposes, these assets are generally recorded at depreciated or amortized cost. Other examples that will cause our NAV to differ from our GAAP net book value include the straight-lining of rent, which results in a receivable for GAAP purposes that is not included in the determination of our NAV. Third party appraisers may value our individual real estate assets using appraisal standards that deviate from fair value standards under GAAP. The use of such appraisal standards may cause our NAV to deviate from GAAP fair value principles. We did not develop our valuation procedures with the intention of complying with fair value concepts under GAAP and, therefore, there could be differences between our fair values and the fair values derived from the principal market or most advantageous market concepts of establishing fair value under GAAP.

As used below, “Fund Interests” means our outstanding shares of common stock, along with the partnership units in our Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), which may be held directly or indirectly by the Advisor, the Sponsor and third parties, and “Aggregate Fund NAV” means the NAV of all of the Fund Interests.

Under GAAP, we record liabilities for ongoing distribution fees that (i) we currently owe under the terms of the dealer manager agreement and (ii) we estimate we may pay to the Dealer Manager in future periods for shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2020, we estimated approximately $43.6 million of ongoing distribution fees were potentially payable to the Dealer Manager. We do not deduct the liability for estimated future distribution fees in our calculation of NAV since we intend for our NAV to reflect our estimated value on the date that we determine our NAV. Accordingly, our estimated NAV at any given time does not include consideration of any estimated future distribution fees that may become payable after such date.

From November 1, 2017 through January 31, 2020, we valued our debt-related investments and real estate-related liabilities generally in accordance with fair value standards under GAAP. Beginning with our valuation for February 29, 2020, our property-level mortgages and corporate-level credit facilities that are intended to be held to maturity (which for fixed rate debt not subject to interest rate hedges may be the date near maturity at which time the debt will be eligible for prepayment at par for purposes herein), including those subject to interest rate hedges, were valued at par (i.e. at their respective outstanding balances). In addition, because we utilize interest rate hedges to stabilize interest payments (i.e. to fix all-in interest rates through interest rate swaps or to limit interest rate exposure through interest rate caps) on individual loans, each loan and associated interest rate hedge is treated as one financial instrument which is valued at par if intended to be held to maturity. This policy of valuing at par applies regardless of whether any given interest rate hedge is considered as an asset or liability for GAAP purposes. We currently estimate the fair value of our debt (inclusive of associated interest rate hedges) that was intended to be held to maturity as of September 30, 2020 was $9.6 million higher than par for such debt in aggregate, meaning that if we used the fair value of our debt rather than par (and treated the associated hedge as part of the same financial instrument), our NAV would be lower by approximately $9.6 million, or $0.07 per share, as of September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we classified all of our debt as intended to be held to maturity. See “Performance” below for further information concerning the impact of interest rate movements on our share returns assuming we continue to include the mark-to-market adjustments for all borrowing-related interest rate hedge and debt instruments.

Performance

Our NAV increased from $10.0763 per share as of December 31, 2019 to $10.0904 per share as of September 30, 2020. The increase in NAV was primarily driven by the performance of our real estate portfolio, including the acquisition of eight operating properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, for an aggregate purchase price of over $277.0 million, exclusive of due diligence expenses and other closing costs, as well as the acquisition of minority ownership interests in two joint venture partnerships for an aggregate purchase price of $301.0 million, partially offset by the repayment of organization and offering costs that were previously funded on behalf of the Company by the Advisor.

Table of Contents

As noted above, effective February 29, 2020, our board of directors approved amendments to our valuation procedures which revised the way we value property-level mortgages, corporate-level credit facilities and associated interest rate hedges when loans, including associated interest rate hedges, are intended to be held to maturity, effectively eliminating all mark-to-market adjustments for such loans and hedges from the calculation of our NAV. The following table summarizes the impact of interest rate movements on our Class I share return assuming we continued to include the mark-to-market adjustments for all borrowing-related interest rate hedge and debt instruments beginning with the February 29, 2020 NAV:

(1) Performance is measured by total return, which includes income and appreciation (i.e., distributions and changes in NAV) and reinvestment of all distributions (“Total Return”) for the respective time period. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Performance data quoted above is historical. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Actual individual stockholder returns will vary. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in our portfolio, which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for our NAV. Valuations based upon unaudited or estimated reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments or revisions, may not correspond to realized value and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated on any given day.
(2) The inception date for Class I shares and Class T shares was November 1, 2017, which is when shares of our common stock were first issued to third-party investors in our initial public offering. The inception date for Class W shares was July 2, 2018, which is when Class W shares of common stock were first issued to third-party investors.
(3) The Total Returns presented are based on the actual NAVs at which stockholders transacted, calculated pursuant to our valuation procedures. With respect to the “Class T Share Total Return (with Sales Charge),” the Total Returns are calculated assuming the stockholder also paid the maximum upfront selling commission, dealer manager fee and ongoing distribution fees in effect during the time period indicated. With respect to “Class T Share Total Return (without Sales Charge),” the Total Returns are calculated assuming the stockholder did not pay any upfront selling commission or dealer manager fee, but did pay the maximum ongoing distribution fees in effect during the time period indicated. From NAV inception to January 31, 2020, these NAVs reflected mark-to-market adjustments on our borrowing-related debt instruments and our borrowing-related interest rate hedge positions.
(4) The Adjusted Total Returns presented are based on adjusted NAVs calculated as if we had continued to mark our borrowing-related hedge and debt instruments to market following a policy change to largely exclude borrowing-related interest rate hedge and debt marks to market from our NAV calculations (except in certain circumstances pursuant to our valuation procedures), beginning with our NAV calculated as of February 29, 2020. Therefore, the NAVs used in the calculation of Adjusted Total Returns were calculated in the same manner as the NAVs used in the calculation of the unadjusted total return for periods through

29


Table of Contents

January 31, 2020. The Adjusted Total Returns include the incremental impact of the adjusted NAVs on advisory fees and performance fees; however, they do not include the incremental impact that the adjusted NAVs would have had on any expense support from our Advisor, or the prices at which shares were purchased in our public offering or pursuant to our share redemption program. For calculation purposes, transactions in our common stock were assumed to occur at the adjusted NAVs.

Impacts of COVID-19

The global pandemic and resulting shut down of large parts of the U.S. economy has created significant uncertainty and enhanced investment risk across many asset classes, including real estate. The extent of the impact on the commercial real estate sector continues to vary dramatically across real estate property types and markets, with certain property segments affected particularly harshly. While not immune to the effects of COVID-19, the industrial property sector continues to remain relatively resilient and we believe we are well-positioned to navigate this unprecedented period. From December 31, 2019 through November 4, 2020, we raised over $924.6 million in equity capital. We believe that the increased pace at which we raised capital in early 2020 was primarily due to an influx of capital from IPT shareholders who determined to invest in our common shares following the completion of IPT’s asset sale in January 2020. We have continued to see steady capital inflows from new investors who invested $304.5 million of new capital into the Company during the second and third quarters. As a result, our balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 was strong with $1.7 billion in assets, over $150.0 million of cash, and 26% leverage, calculated as our total borrowings outstanding divided by the fair value of our real property plus our investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships and cash and cash equivalents. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity—Offering Proceeds” for further information concerning capital raised thus far in 2020 and our expectations regarding the pace of capital raising in the near term. As of September 30, 2020, we owned and managed, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, a total real estate portfolio comprised of 124 industrial buildings totaling 29.4 million square feet, with 191 customers, spanning a multitude of industries and sectors across 23 markets, with a strategic weighting towards top tier markets where we have historically seen the lowest volatility combined with positive returns over time. Our total portfolio was 81.1% occupied (86.3% leased) as of September 30, 2020, with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 4.8 years, and our operating portfolio was 90.8% occupied (94.3% leased). During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we leased approximately 1.2 million square feet, which included 1.0 million square feet of new and future leases and 0.2 million square feet of renewals, through 15 separate transactions with an average annual base rent of $5.53 per square foot. Future leases represent new leases for units that are entered into while the units are occupied by the current customer.

Our asset management teams are working directly with our customers to manage through these turbulent times. Many of our customers’ businesses have been disrupted and some of our more impacted customers are experiencing lost revenue. Our teams are working with these customers to ensure they take advantage of any available insurance and government stimulus programs, which may help them pay rent whether in full or in part. Where appropriate, we have restructured leases and may restructure additional leases to provide temporary rent relief needed by certain customers while positioning ourselves to recapture abated rent over time. Within our total portfolio, after adjusting for customers with such forbearance agreements in place, we received or agreed to defer 98% of our rent originally payable for the third quarter of 2020, compared to average annual collections of over 99% prior to the pandemic. We have executed or agreed to such forbearance agreements with approximately 1% of our customers (based on third quarter gross rent). Within our total portfolio, and without adjusting for the effects of such forbearance agreements, we received 97% of our contractual rent for the third quarter of 2020, and 97% of our contractual rent for October as of November 4, 2020. Rent relief requests have decreased in the three months ended September 30, 2020 and did not have a material impact on our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to continue to collect rent at the same level that we did prior to the pandemic. Furthermore, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to recover unpaid rent.

While the uncertain length and depth of the damage from business disruptions remain a significant risk, we believe our NAV as of September 30, 2020 currently reflects this uncertainty. During the third quarter of 2020, we experienced a reduction of deployment due to increased demand for industrial properties, as well as the effects of COVID-19. Going forward, the market disruption may continue to slow our pace of deployment further as sellers may be less willing to transact. Slower deployment of capital into income producing real estate further reduces near-term cash flow generated to cover our distributions to our stockholders and may cause us to reduce our NAV in future periods in the absence of asset appreciation or expense support from the Advisor. However, we believe our strong balance sheet and ability as an operator will allow us to be a patient buyer of assets in order to maximize long-term total return.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary of 2020 Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we completed the following activities:

Our NAV was $10.0904 per share as of September 30, 2020 as compared to $10.0763 per share as of December 31, 2019.
We raised $832.7 million of gross equity capital from our public offerings during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
We acquired 12 industrial buildings comprised of 3.4 million square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $329.0 million, which is equal to the total consideration paid. We funded these acquisitions with proceeds from our public offerings and debt financings.
We closed a transaction to acquire interests in two joint venture partnerships, the BTC I Partnership and the BTC II Partnership, with third party investors for a purchase price of $301.0 million in cash paid at closing, exclusive of due diligence expenses and other closing costs.
For the period from July 16, 2020 through September 30, 2020, we, through our 20.0% ownership interest in the BTC I Partnership, completed the development of one industrial building comprising 0.3 million square feet for aggregate total costs to complete the development of approximately $30.9 million.
For the period from July 16, 2020 through September 30, 2020, we, through our 8.0% ownership interest in the BTC II Partnership, completed the development of two industrial buildings comprising 0.7 million square feet for aggregate total costs to complete the development of approximately $60.8 million.
As of September 30, 2020, our joint venture partnerships had nine buildings under construction totaling approximately 2.7 million square feet and six buildings in the pre-construction phase for an additional 1.7 million square feet.
We entered into interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million during the first quarter of 2020 to hedge LIBOR on our term loan, including one that became effective during the second quarter. These interest rate swaps, in combination with those already in place, effectively fix LIBOR at a weighted-average of 1.14% and result in an all-in interest rate on our term loan ranging from 1.84% to 2.60% depending on our consolidated leverage ratio.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to the Same Periods in 2019

The following table summarizes the changes in our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019. We evaluate the performance of consolidated operating properties we own and manage using a same store analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, thereby eliminating the effects of any material changes in the composition of the aggregate portfolio on performance measures. We have defined the same store portfolio to include consolidated operating properties owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods for which the operations had been stabilized. “Other properties” includes buildings not meeting the same store criteria. The same store operating portfolio for the three month periods presented below included 34 buildings totaling approximately 5.7 million square feet owned as of July 1, 2019, which represented 47.8% of total rentable square feet, 54.0% of total revenues, and 53.0% of net operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The same store operating portfolio for the nine month periods presented below included 13 buildings totaling approximately 2.7 million square feet owned as of January 1, 2019, which represented 23.0% of total rentable square feet, 29.0% of total revenues, and 29.3% of net operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Rental Revenues. Rental revenues are comprised of rental income, straight-line rent, and amortization of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities. Total rental revenues increased by approximately $8.8 million and $30.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2019, primarily due to an increase in non-same store revenues, which was attributable to the significant growth in our portfolio. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, non-same store rental revenues reflect the addition of 44 and 23 buildings we have acquired since January 1, 2019 and July 1, 2019, respectively. Same store rental revenues remained consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, same store rental revenues increased $0.4 million, or 2.2%, as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to an increase in recoverable expenses that resulted in increases to recovery revenue.

Rental Expenses. Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our customers, such as real estate taxes, property insurance, repair and maintenance, and utilities. Total rental expenses increased by approximately $1.9 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2019, primarily due to an increase in non-same store rental expenses attributable to the significant growth in our portfolio since January 1, 2019 and July 1, 2019. Same store rental expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 3.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to a credit related to a 2019 tax appeal related to one of our properties, that was settled in the third quarter of 2020, partially offset by an increase in property taxes for certain of our assets. Same store rental expenses increased $0.1 million, or 2.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to an increase in property taxes for certain of our assets, partially offset by a decrease in repairs and maintenance, including lower snow removal and landscaping costs.

Other Expenses. Other expenses, in aggregate, increased by approximately $16.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to the following:

an increase in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, advisory fees and general and administrative expenses totaling an aggregate amount of $10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as a result of the growth in our portfolio as compared to the same period in 2019; and
a net decrease in the expense support from the Advisor of $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, due to the $4.4 million of net reimbursement to the Advisor of deferred fees and other expenses that were previously supported pursuant to the expense support agreement between us and the Advisor, as compared to the $0.7 million of net expense support received for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Other expenses, in aggregate, increased by approximately $27.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to the following:

an increase in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, advisory fees and general and administrative expenses totaling an aggregate amount of $28.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as a result of the growth in our portfolio as compared to the same period in 2019; and
an increase in interest expense of $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily related to: (i) an increase in the interest expense from the two mortgage notes assumed in connection with the acquisition of the Dallas Infill Industrial Portfolio in June 2019 of $0.9 million, as compared to the same period in 2019 and (ii) an increase in the interest expense of $2.7 million from borrowings under the term loan due to an increase in average net borrowings of $259.0 million, as compared to the same period in 2019; partially offset by a decrease in interest from borrowings under the line of credit due to lower average net borrowings of $40.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the same period in 2019.

Partially offset by:

a net increase in expense support from the Advisor of $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, due to the $5.9 million of net expense support received for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the $0.5 million of net reimbursement to the Advisor of deferred fees and other expenses that were previously supported pursuant to the expense support agreement between us and the Advisor for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE

Net Loss and Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our results of operations because NOI reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related expenses, impairment charges, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such expenses, which expenses could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe our net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall performance. Refer to “Results of Operations” above for a reconciliation of our GAAP net income (loss) to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Company-defined Funds from Operations (“Company-defined FFO”) and Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”)

We believe that FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO, in addition to net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are useful supplemental performance measures that our management uses to evaluate our consolidated operating performance. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our performance and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. No single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations. Fees deferred or waived by the Advisor and payments received from the Advisor and/or reimbursed to the Advisor pursuant to the expense support agreement are included in determining our net income (loss), which is used to determine FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO. If we had not received support from the Advisor and/or reimbursed the Advisor pursuant to the expense support agreement, our FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO would have been lower or higher. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and similar measures differently and choose to treat acquisition-related costs and potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment and operating strategy or for other reasons.

FFO. As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization. We believe FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance that is useful to investors because depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. We use FFO as an indication of our consolidated operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments.

Company-defined FFO. Similar to FFO, Company-defined FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization and also excludes acquisition-related costs, which are characterized as expenses in determining net income (loss) under GAAP. The purchase of operating properties has been a key strategic objective of our business plan focused on generating growth in operating income and cash flow in order to make distributions to investors. However, the corresponding acquisition-related costs are driven by transactional activity rather than factors specific to the on-going operating performance of our properties or investments. Company-defined FFO may not be a complete indicator of our operating performance, and may not be a useful measure of the long-term operating performance of our properties if we do not continue to operate our business plan as disclosed.

MFFO. As defined by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”), MFFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure used to evaluate our operating performance. Similar to FFO, MFFO excludes items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization. Similar to Company-defined FFO, MFFO excludes acquisition-related costs. MFFO also excludes straight-line rent and amortization of above- and below-market leases. In addition, there are certain other MFFO adjustments as defined by the IPA that are not applicable to us and are not included in our presentation of MFFO.

We are in the acquisition phase of our life cycle. Management does not include historical acquisition-related costs in its evaluation of future operating performance, as such costs are not expected to be incurred once our acquisition phase is complete. We use FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO to, among other things: (i) evaluate and compare the potential performance of the portfolio after the acquisition phase is complete, and (ii) evaluate potential performance to determine liquidity event strategies. Although some REITs may present similar measures differently from us, we believe FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO generally facilitate a

34


Table of Contents

comparison to other REITs that have similar operating characteristics to us. We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analyses and evaluation with the same performance metrics used by management in planning and executing our business strategy. We believe that these performance metrics will assist investors in evaluating the potential performance of the portfolio after the completion of the acquisition phase. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of future performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities and is not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments used to calculate FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT, or a regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-traded REIT industry at which point we may adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO.

See “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Distributions” below for details concerning our distributions, which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock by participants in our distribution reinvestment plan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements during our acquisition phase are, and will be, net proceeds from our public offerings, including proceeds from the sale of shares offered through our distribution reinvestment plan, debt financings, cash resulting from the expense support provided by the Advisor and cash generated from operating activities. We currently intend to maintain an allocation of 10% of our NAV to cash-related liquidity. Our principal uses of funds are, and will be, for the acquisition of properties and other investments, capital expenditures, operating expenses, payments under our debt obligations, and distributions to our stockholders. Over time, we intend to fund a majority of our cash needs for items other than asset acquisitions, including the repayment of debt and capital expenditures, from operating cash flows and refinancings. There may be a delay between the deployment of proceeds raised from our public offerings and our purchase of assets, which could result in a delay in the benefits to our stockholders, if any, of returns generated from our investments.

The global pandemic and resulting shut down of large parts of the U.S. economy has created significant uncertainty and enhanced investment risk across many asset classes, including real estate. The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as the reduced economic activity severely impacts certain of our customers’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause certain customers to be unable to meet their obligations to us in full. However, since December 31, 2019 and through November 4, 2020, we have raised over $924.6 million in equity capital. We believe that the increased pace at which we raised capital in early 2020 was primarily due to an influx of capital from IPT shareholders who determined to invest in our common shares following the completion of IPT’s asset sale in January 2020. As a result, we ended the third quarter with $1.7 billion in assets and 26% leverage, calculated as our total borrowings outstanding divided by the fair value of our real property plus our investment in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships and cash and cash equivalents. We have continued to see steady capital inflows from new investors who invested $304.5 million of new capital into the Company during the second and third quarters. See “—Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity—Offering Proceeds” for further information concerning capital raised thus far in 2020 and our expectations regarding the pace of capital raising in the near term. As of September 30, 2020, we owned and managed, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint venture partnerships, a total real estate portfolio comprised of 124 industrial buildings totaling 29.4 million square feet, with a diverse roster of 191 customers, large and small, spanning a multitude of industries and sectors across 23 markets, with a strategic weighting towards top tier markets where we have historically seen the lowest volatility combined with positive returns over time. Our total portfolio was 81.1% occupied (86.3% leased) as of September 30, 2020, with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 4.8 years. Within our total portfolio, after adjusting for customers with forbearance agreements in place, we received or agreed to defer 98% of our rent originally payable for the third quarter of 2020, compared to average annual collections of over 99% prior to the pandemic. We have executed or agreed to such forbearance agreements with approximately 1% of our customers (based on third quarter gross rent).Within our total portfolio, and without adjusting for the effects of forbearance agreements, we received 97% of our contractual rent for the third quarter of 2020, and 97% of our contractual rent for October as of November 4, 2020.

The Advisor, subject to the oversight of our board of directors and, under certain circumstances, the investment committee or other committees established by our board of directors, will continue to evaluate potential acquisitions and will engage in negotiations with sellers and lenders on our behalf. Pending investment in property, debt, other investments, and our 10% cash allocation mentioned above, we may decide to temporarily invest any unused proceeds from our public offering in certain investments that are expected to yield lower returns than those earned on real estate assets. During these times of economic uncertainty, we have seen a slow down in transaction volume, which has adversely impacted our ability to acquire real estate assets, which would cause us to retain more lower yielding investments and hold them for longer periods of time while we seek to acquire additional real estate assets. These lower returns may affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of assets, and undistributed funds from operations.

We believe that our cash on-hand, anticipated net offering proceeds, anticipated financing activities and cash resulting from the

expense support provided by the Advisor will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

Cash Flows. The following table summarizes our cash flows, as determined on a GAAP basis, for the following periods:

Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased by approximately $10.4 million as compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to the growth in our property operations. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased by approximately $204.5 million as compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to our acquisition of minority ownership interests in two joint venture partnerships for an aggregate purchase price of $301.0 million, exclusive of due diligence expenses and other closing costs, and an increase in capital expenditures of $3.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in acquisition volume of directly owned properties, as compared to the same period in 2019. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased approximately $293.3 million as compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to an increase in net proceeds raised in our public offerings of $528.5 million, driven in part by the influx of capital following the completion of IPT’s asset sale in January 2020, partially offset by a decrease of $224.6 million in our net borrowing activity.

Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity

In addition to our cash and cash equivalents balance available, our capital resources and uses of liquidity are as follows:

Line of Credit and Term Loan. As of September 30, 2020, we had an aggregate of $730.0 million of commitments under our credit agreement, including $315.0 million under our line of credit and $415.0 million under our term loan. As of that date, we had no amounts outstanding under our line of credit and $415.0 million outstanding under our term loan with an effective interest rate of 2.24%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements. The unused and available portions under our line of credit were both $314.9 million as of September 30, 2020. There were no unused nor available amounts under our term loan as of September 30, 2020. Our $315.0 million line of credit matures in November 2023 and may be extended pursuant to a one-year extension option, subject to continuing compliance with certain financial covenants and other customary conditions. Our $415.0 million term loan matures in February 2024. Our line of credit and term loan borrowings are available for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, the acquisition and operation of permitted investments by us. Refer to “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our line of credit and term loan.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) that regulates LIBOR announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”), which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative rate for LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. We are not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR markets. Any changes adopted by the FCA or other governing bodies in the method used for determining LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR. If that were to occur, our interest payment could change. In addition, uncertainty about the extent and manner of future changes may result in interest rate and/or payments that are higher or lower than if LIBOR were to remain available in the current form.

As of September 30, 2020, our line of credit and term loan are our only consolidated indebtedness with maturities beyond 2021 that have exposure to LIBOR. The agreement governing the term loan provides procedures for determining a replacement or alternative base rate in the event that LIBOR is discontinued. However, there can be no assurances as to whether such replacement or alternative base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. As of September 30, 2020, we have interest rate swaps in place to hedge LIBOR on $350.0 million of commitments under our term loan. We intend to monitor the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with our lenders to seek to ensure any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on our financial condition, but can provide no assurances regarding the impact of the discontinuation of LIBOR.

Mortgage Notes. As of September 30, 2020, we had property-level borrowings of approximately $49.3 million of principal outstanding with a weighted-average remaining term of 4.6 years. These borrowings are secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and related assignments and security interests in the collateralized properties, and had a weighted-average interest rate of 3.71%. Refer to

37


Table of Contents

“Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the mortgage notes.

Debt Covenants. Our line of credit, term loan and mortgage note agreements contain various property-level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the agreement governing our line of credit and term loan contains certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt, to make borrowings under our line of credit, or to pay distributions. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of September 30, 2020.

Offering Proceeds. As of September 30, 2020, aggregate gross proceeds raised since inception from our public and private offerings, including proceeds raised through our distribution reinvestment plan, were $1.35 billion ($1.27 billion net of direct selling costs). These proceeds include $528.2 million from the sale of 50.6 million shares of our common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We believe that the increased pace at which we raised capital in early 2020 was primarily due to an influx of capital from IPT shareholders who determined to invest in our common shares following the receipt of a special distribution from IPT related to the completion of IPT’s asset sale in January 2020. Due to the unique nature of these circumstances, we do not expect that this increased pace will be sustained throughout 2020. We have continued to steadily raise capital, with $304.5 million of new capital inflows during the second and third quarters of 2020. In addition, due to the economic disruption created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect the pace of capital raising to be slower in the near term and to return to a pace more consistent with or slower than the pace we experienced during 2019.

Distributions. We intend to continue to accrue and make distributions on a regular basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 2.1% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, and 97.9% of our total gross distributions were funded from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis; specifically 29.0% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash provided by expense support from the Advisor, 19.1% were funded with proceeds from financing activities, and 49.8% of our total gross distributions were funded with proceeds from shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. Some or all of our future distributions may be paid from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, such as cash flows from financing activities, which include borrowings (including borrowings secured by our assets), proceeds from the issuance of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, proceeds from sales of assets, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees otherwise payable to the Advisor or its affiliates (including cash received pursuant to the expense support agreement), interest income from our cash balances, and the net proceeds from primary shares sold in our public offerings. We have not established a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. The amount of any distributions will be determined by our board of directors, and will depend on, among other things, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by our board.

For the fourth quarter of 2020, our board of directors authorized monthly distributions to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on the last business day of each month for the fourth quarter of 2020, or October 31, 2020, November 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020 (each a “Distribution Record Date”). The distributions were authorized at a quarterly rate of (i) $0.13625 per Class I share of common stock and (ii) $0.13625 per Class T share and per Class W share of common stock, less the respective annual distribution fees that are payable monthly with respect to such Class T shares and Class W shares. This quarterly rate is equal to a monthly rate of (i) $0.04542 per Class I share of common stock and (ii) $0.04542 per Class T share and per Class W share of common stock, less the respective annual distribution fees that are payable with respect to such Class T shares and Class W shares. Distributions for each month of the fourth quarter of 2020 have been or will be paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock for those electing to participate in our distribution reinvestment plan following the close of business on the respective Distribution Record Date applicable to such monthly distributions.

There can be no assurances that the current distribution rate or amount per share will be maintained. In the near-term, we expect that we may need to continue to rely on expense support from the Advisor and sources other than cash flows from operations, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay distributions, which if insufficient could negatively impact our ability to pay such distributions.

(1) For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, the Advisor provided expense support of $13.5 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Expense support from the Advisor used to pay distributions is presented above without the effect of our reimbursements to the Advisor of previously deferred fees and other expenses. We reimbursed the Advisor $7.6 million and $13.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively. See “Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on the expense support from and reimbursement to the Advisor during the quarter. Refer to Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2019 Form 10-K for a description of the expense support agreement.
(2) Stockholders may elect to have their distributions reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan.
(3) Gross distributions are total distributions before the deduction of any distribution fees relating to Class T shares and Class W shares issued in the primary portion of our public offerings.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $19.0 million, as compared to our aggregate total gross distributions declared (which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan) of $42.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $8.6 million, as compared to our aggregate total gross distributions declared (which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan) of $13.9 million.

Refer to “Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on our distributions.

Redemptions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received eligible redemption requests for approximately 0.3 million shares of our common stock, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $3.2 million, or an average price of $9.83 per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we received eligible redemption requests for 0.1 million shares of our common stock, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $1.4 million, or an average price of $9.87 per share. See Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program,” for a description of our share redemption program.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Status of the Public Offerings

As of November 4, 2020, we had raised gross proceeds of $1.4 billion from the sale of 137.7 million shares of our common stock in our public offerings, including $37.0 million from the sale of 3.7 million shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan. These proceeds include $528.2 million from the sale of 50.6 million shares of our common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We believe that the increased pace at which we raised capital in early 2020 was primarily due to an influx of capital from IPT shareholders who determined to invest in our common shares following their receipt of a special distribution from IPT related to the completion of IPT’s asset sale in January 2020. Due to the unique nature of these circumstances, we do not expect that this increased pace will be sustained throughout 2020. Although we have continued to steadily raise capital, with $304.5 million of new capital inflows during the second and third quarters, we have noted a slowdown in capital raising, which we attribute primarily to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect sales of our common shares to return to a pace more consistent with the pace we experienced during 2019. As of November 4, 2020, approximately $1.0 billion in shares of our common stock remained available for sale pursuant to our follow-on public offering in any combination of Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares, including approximately $471.4 million in shares of common stock available for sale through our distribution reinvestment plan, which may be reallocated for sale in our primary offering.

Completed Acquisitions

On October 9, 2020, we acquired two industrial buildings located in the Cincinnati market. The total purchase price was approximately $30.2 million, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs and other closing costs.

Acquisitions Under Contract

We have entered into contracts to acquire properties with an aggregate contract purchase price of approximately $54.8 million, comprised of four industrial buildings. There can be no assurance that we will complete the acquisition of the properties under contract.

Status of Secured Mortgage Notes

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we entered into a secured fixed-rate mortgage note in the amount of $118.5 million with an interest rate of 2.90% and a term of seven years. The assets and credit of each of our properties pledged as collateral for our mortgage notes are not available to satisfy our other debt and obligations, unless we first satisfy the mortgage notes payable on the respective underlying properties.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2019 was disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K. Except as otherwise disclosed in “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” relating to borrowings under our line of credit and term loan, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business from the future obligations disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of September 30, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect, on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”), which updates various codification topics to simplify the accounting guidance for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, with a specific focus on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. We plan to adopt ASU 2020-06 when it becomes effective for us, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2021. Our initial analysis indicates that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions, and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2019 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2020, our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2019 Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We may be exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and optimize overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we plan to borrow on a fixed interest rate basis for longer-term debt and utilize interest rate swap agreements on certain variable interest rate debt in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations. As of September 30, 2020, our consolidated debt outstanding consisted of borrowings under our term loan and mortgage notes.

Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2020, our consolidated fixed interest rate debt consisted of $350.0 million under our term loan, which was effectively fixed through the use of interest swap agreements, and $49.3 million of principal borrowings under our mortgage notes. In total, our fixed rate debt represented approximately 86.0% of our total consolidated debt as of September 30, 2020. The impact of interest rate fluctuations on our consolidated fixed interest rate debt will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows unless such borrowings mature, are otherwise terminated or payments are made on the principal balance. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt. As of September 30, 2020, the fair value and the carrying value of our consolidated fixed interest rate debt, excluding the values of hedges, were $396.6 million and $399.3 million, respectively. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on September 30, 2020. Based on our debt as of September 30, 2020, we do not expect that market fluctuations in interest rates will have a significant impact on our future earnings or operating cash flows.

Variable Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2020, our consolidated variable interest rate debt consisted of $65.0 million under our term loan, which represented 14.0% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate changes on the variable portion of our consolidated variable-rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of such debt. As of September 30, 2020, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $65.0 million of consolidated borrowings. A hypothetical 25 basis points increase in the all-in interest rate on the outstanding balance of our consolidated variable interest rate debt as of September 30, 2020, would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $0.2 million.

Derivative Instruments. As of September 30, 2020, we had seven outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $350.0 million. See “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on our interest rate swaps. We are exposed to credit risk of the counterparty to our interest rate swap agreements in the event of non-performance under the terms of the agreements. If we were not able to replace these swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, we would be subject to variability of the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our term loan that is fixed through the use of the swaps.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal control over financial reporting to date as a result of many of the employees of our Advisor and its affiliates working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 pandemic on our internal controls to minimize the impact to their design and operating effectiveness.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2019 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (the “First Quarter 2020 10-Q”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in our 2019 Form 10-K and our First Quarter 2020 10-Q are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.

With the exception of the risk factors set forth below, which update the risk factors disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K and our First Quarter 2020 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K and our First Quarter 2020 10-Q.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR GENERAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND OUR CORPORATE STRUCTURE

The current outbreak of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, has caused severe disruptions in the U.S. and global economy and will likely have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. This impact could be materially adverse to the extent the current COVID-19 outbreak, or future pandemics, cause customers to be unable to pay their rent or reduce the demand for commercial real estate, or cause other impacts described below.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spread to over 100 countries, including the United States. COVID-19 has also spread to every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020 the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19.

The outbreak of COVID-19 in many countries, including the United States, continues to adversely impact global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and, as cases of the virus have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries, including the United States, have reacted by instituting quarantines and restrictions on travel.

Between March and May 2020, nearly all U.S. cities and states, including cities and states where our properties are located, have also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “shelter in place” rules, restrictions on types of business that may continue to operate, and/or restrictions on types of construction projects that may continue. Beginning in early May 2020, parts of the U.S. began to ease the lockdown restrictions and allow for the reopening of businesses. The gradual reopening of retail, manufacturing, and office facilities came with required or recommended safety protocols. However, due to the recent increases in COVID-19 cases, these lockdown restrictions may be reinstated in certain areas to varying degrees in the future. Additionally, there is no assurance that the reopening of businesses, even if those businesses adhere to recommended safety protocols, will enable us or many of our customers to avoid adverse effects on our and our customers’ operations and businesses. The COVID-19 outbreak has had, and future pandemics could have, a significant adverse impact on economic and market conditions of economies around the world, including the United States, and has triggered a period of global economic slowdown or global recession.

The effects of COVID-19 or another pandemic could adversely affect us and/or our customers due to, among other factors:

the unavailability of personnel, including executive officers and other leaders that are part of the management team and the inability to recruit, attract and retain skilled personnel—to the extent management or personnel are impacted in significant numbers by the outbreak of pandemic or epidemic disease and are not available or allowed to conduct work—business and operating results may be negatively impacted;
difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all—a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our and our customers’ ability to access capital necessary to fund business operations or replace or renew maturing liabilities on a timely basis, and may adversely affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities, any of which could affect our ability to meet liquidity and capital expenditure requirements or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;
an inability to operate in affected areas, or delays in the supply of products or services from the vendors that are needed to operate effectively;
customers’ inability to pay rent on their leases or our inability to re-lease space that is or becomes vacant, which inability, if extreme, could cause us to: (i) no longer be able to pay distributions at our current rates or at all in order to preserve liquidity and (ii) be unable to meet our debt obligations to lenders, which could cause us to lose title to the properties securing such

43


Table of Contents

debt, trigger cross-default provisions, or could cause us to be unable to meet debt covenants, which could cause us to have to sell properties or refinance debt on unattractive terms;
Uncertainty related to whether the U.S. Congress or state legislatures will pass additional laws providing for additional economic stimulus packages, governmental funding, or other relief programs, whether such measures will be enacted, whether our customers will be eligible or will apply for any such funds, whether the funds, if available, could be used by our customers to pay rent, and whether such funds will be sufficient to supplement our customers’ rent and other obligations to us;
an inability to ensure business continuity in the event our continuity of operations plan is not effective or improperly implemented or deployed during a disruption;
our inability to raise capital in our ongoing public offering, if investors are reluctant to purchase our shares;
our inability to deploy capital due to slower transaction volume which may be dilutive to stockholders; and
our inability to satisfy redemption requests and preserve liquidity, if demand for redemptions exceeds the limits of our share redemption program or ability to fund redemptions.

Because our property investments are located in the United States, COVID-19 continues to impact our properties and operating results given its continued spread within the United States reduces occupancy, increases the cost of operation, results in limited hours or necessitates the closure of such properties. In addition, quarantines, states of emergencies and other measures taken to curb the spread of COVID-19 may negatively impact the ability of such properties to continue to obtain necessary goods and services or provide adequate staffing, which may also adversely affect our properties and operating results.

Customers and potential customers of the properties we own operate in industries that are being adversely affected by the disruption to business caused by this global outbreak. Customers or operators have been, and may in the future be, required to suspend operations at our properties for what could be an extended period of time. Whereas a number of our customers requested rent deferrals in the second quarter of 2020, these requests significantly decreased in the third quarter. However, more customers may request rent deferrals or may not pay rent in the future. This could lead to increased customer delinquencies and/or defaults under leases, a lower demand for rentable space leading to increased concessions or lower occupancy, and/or tenant improvement expenditures, or reduced rental rates to maintain occupancies. Our operations could be materially negatively affected if the economic downturn is prolonged, which could adversely affect our operating results, ability to pay our distributions, our ability to repay or refinance our debt, and the value of our shares.

The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate impact of COVID-19. The full extent of the impact and effects of COVID-19 on our future financial performance, as a whole, and, specifically, on our real estate property holdings are uncertain at this time. The impact will depend on future developments, including, among other factors, the duration and spread of the outbreak, along with related travel advisories and restrictions, the recovery time of the disrupted supply chains, the consequential staff shortages, and production delays, and the uncertainty with respect to the duration of the global economic slowdown. COVID-19 and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and value of our shares.

The current outbreak of COVID-19 and resulting impacts on the U.S. economy and financial markets has created extreme uncertainty and volatility with respect to the current and future values of real estate, and therefore our NAV per share, as well as the market value of our debt (including associated interest rate hedges). As a result, our NAV per share may not reflect the actual realizable value of our underlying properties at any given time or the market value of our debt (including associated interest rate hedges).

44


Table of Contents

The current outbreak of COVID-19 and resulting impacts on the U.S. economy and financial markets have created extreme uncertainty and volatility with respect to the current and future values of real estate and real estate-related assets, borrowings and hedges. The recent COVID-19 pandemic is expected to continue to have a significant impact on local, national and global economies and has resulted in a world-wide economic slowdown. The fallout from the ongoing pandemic on our investments is uncertain; however, it has had a negative impact on the overall real estate market, with a particularly adverse impact on certain sectors, including hospitality, shopping malls, gaming, and student living. In addition, slower transaction volume may result in less data for assessing real estate values. This increases the risk that our NAV per share may not reflect the actual realizable value of our underlying properties at any given time, as valuations and appraisals of our properties and real estate-related assets are only estimates of market value as of the end of the prior month and may not reflect the changes in values resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, as this impact is occurring rapidly and is not immediately quantifiable. To the extent real estate values decline after the date we disclose our NAV, whether due to the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise, (i) we may overpay to redeem our shares, which would adversely affect the investment of non-redeeming stockholders, and (ii) new investors may overpay for their investment in our common stock, which would heighten their risk of loss. Furthermore, because we generally do not mark to market our property-level mortgages and corporate-level credit facilities that are intended to be held to maturity or our associated interest rate hedges that are intended to be held to maturity, the realizable value of our company or our assets that are encumbered by debt may be higher or lower than the value used in the calculation of our NAV. This risk may be exacerbated by the current market volatility, which can lead to large and sudden swings in the fair value of our assets and liabilities. We currently estimate the fair value of our debt (inclusive of associated interest rate hedges) that was intended to be held to maturity as of September 30, 2020 was $9.6 million higher than par for such debt in aggregate, meaning that if we used the fair value of our debt rather than par (and treated the associated hedge as part of the same financial instrument), our NAV would be lower by approximately $9.6 million, or $0.07 per share, as of September 30, 2020.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Share Redemption Program

Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our share redemption program may provide a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of our common stock redeemed for cash. To the extent our board of directors determines that we have sufficient available cash for redemptions, we initially intend to redeem shares under our share redemption program on a monthly basis; however, our board of directors may determine from time to time to adjust the timing of redemptions or suspend, terminate or otherwise modify our share redemption program.

While stockholders may request on a monthly basis that we redeem all or any portion of their shares pursuant to our share redemption program, we are not obligated to redeem any shares and may choose to redeem only some, or even none, of the shares that have been requested to be redeemed in any particular month, in our discretion. In addition, our ability to fulfill redemption requests is subject to a number of limitations. As a result, share redemptions may not be available each month. Under our share redemption program, to the extent we determine to redeem shares in any particular month, we will only redeem shares as of the last calendar day of that month (each such date, a “Redemption Date”). Redemptions will be made at the transaction price in effect on the Redemption Date, except that all shares of our common stock that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be redeemed at 95.0% of the transaction price and Class T shares that have been outstanding for at least one year but less than two years will be redeemed at 97.5% of the transaction price. Each of these deductions is referred to as an “Early Redemption Deduction.” An Early Redemption Deduction will not be applied with respect to: (i) Class W shares and Class I shares that have been outstanding for at least one year; and (ii) Class T shares that have been outstanding for at least two years. The “transaction price” generally will be equal to the NAV per share of our common stock most recently disclosed by us. We will redeem shares at a price that we believe reflects the NAV per share of such stock more appropriately than the most recently disclosed monthly NAV per share, including by updating a previously disclosed transaction price, in cases where we believe there has been a material change (positive or negative) to the NAV per share relative to the most recently disclosed monthly NAV per share. An Early Redemption Deduction may be waived in certain circumstances including: (i) in the case of redemption requests arising from the death or qualified disability of the holder; (ii) in the event that a stockholder’s shares are redeemed because the stockholder has failed to maintain the $2,000 minimum account balance; or (iii) with respect to shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan or received from us as a stock dividend. To have shares redeemed, a stockholder’s redemption request and required documentation must be received in good order by 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the second to last business day of the applicable month. Settlements of share redemptions will be made within three business days of the Redemption Date. An investor may withdraw its redemption request by notifying the transfer agent before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the last business day of the applicable month.

Under our share redemption program, we may redeem during any calendar month shares whose aggregate value (based on the price at which the shares are redeemed) is 2.0% of our aggregate NAV as of the last calendar day of the previous quarter and during any calendar quarter whose aggregate value (based on the price at which the shares are redeemed) is up to 5.0% of our aggregate NAV as

45


Table of Contents

of the last calendar day of the prior calendar quarter. During a given quarter, if in each of the first two months of such quarter the 2.0% redemption limit is reached and stockholders’ redemptions are reduced pro rata for such months, then in the third and final month of that quarter, the applicable limit for such month will likely be less than 2.0% of our aggregate NAV as of the last calendar day of the previous month because the redemptions for that month, combined with the redemptions in the previous two months, cannot exceed 5.0% of our aggregate NAV as of the last calendar day of the prior calendar quarter.

Although the vast majority of our assets consist of properties that cannot generally be readily liquidated on short notice without impacting our ability to realize full value upon their disposition, we intend to maintain a number of sources of liquidity including: (i) cash equivalents (e.g. money market funds), other short-term investments, U.S. government securities, agency securities and liquid real estate-related securities; and (ii) one or more borrowing facilities. We may fund redemptions from any available source of funds, including operating cash flows, borrowings, proceeds from our public offering and/or sales of our assets.

Should redemption requests, in our judgment, place an undue burden on our liquidity, adversely affect our operations or risk having an adverse impact on us as a whole, or should we otherwise determine that investing our liquid assets in real properties or other illiquid investments rather than redeeming our shares is in the best interests of the company as a whole, then we may choose to redeem fewer shares than have been requested to be redeemed, or none at all. In the event that we determine to redeem some but not all of the shares submitted for redemption during any month for any of the foregoing reasons, shares submitted for redemption during such month will be redeemed on a pro rata basis. All unsatisfied redemption requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next month or quarter, or upon the recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable. If the transaction price for the applicable month is not made available by the tenth business day prior to the last business day of the month (or is changed after such date), then no redemption requests will be accepted for such month and stockholders who wish to have their shares redeemed the following month must resubmit their redemption requests.

The preceding summary does not purport to be a complete summary of our share redemption program and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the share redemption program, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Refer to Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for additional details regarding our redemption history.

BCI IV Holdco has the requisite organizational power and authority to own, lease, hold, encumber and operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a BCI IV Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.2Authority.

(a)BCI IV Holdco has the requisite limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to which BCI IV Holdco is a

24


party, including the Interest Sale. The execution and delivery and performance by BCI IV Holdco of this Agreement and the consummation by BCI IV Holdco of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on behalf of BCI IV Holdco, and no other proceedings on the part of BCI IV Holdco are necessary to authorize this Agreement or the Interest Sale or to consummate the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by BCI IV Holdco and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Company OP, constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of BCI IV Holdco, enforceable against BCI IV Holdco in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(b)The BCI IV Board, following the unanimous approval and recommendation of the BCI IV Special Committee, has (i) determined that (a) this Agreement, the Interest Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are advisable and in the best interests of BCI IV and are fair and reasonable to BCI IV, (b) there is substantial justification for the amount by which the Purchase Price exceeds the amount that Company OP invested in IPT Holdco and that the Purchase Price is reasonable, and (c) the joint venture terms of Build-To-Core Industrial Partnership I LP and Build-To-Core Industrial Partnership II LP are fair and reasonable to BCI IV and on terms and conditions that are no less favorable than those that would be available to unaffiliated parties, and (ii) approved this Agreement, the Interest Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and authorized BCI IV, in its capacity as the sole general partner of BCI IV OP, on behalf of BCI IV OP, in its capacity as the sole member of BCI IV Holdco, on behalf of BCI IV Holdco, to execute, deliver and perform the Purchase Agreement, which resolutions remain in full force and effect and have not been subsequently rescinded, modified or withdrawn in any way.

Section 4.3No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

(a)Assuming that all consents, approvals, authorizations and permits described in Section 4.3(b) have been obtained, all filings and notifications described in Section 4.3(b) have been made and any waiting periods thereunder have terminated or expired, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by BCI IV Holdco does not, and the performance of this Agreement and its obligations hereunder will not, (i) conflict with or violate any provision of any organizational or governing document of BCI IV Holdco, or (ii) conflict with or violate any Law applicable to BCI IV Holdco or by which any property or asset of BCI IV Holdco is bound, except, as to this clause (ii), for any such conflicts or violations that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a BCI IV Material Adverse Effect.

(b)The execution and delivery of this Agreement by BCI IV Holdco does not, and the performance of this Agreement by BCI IV Holdco will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any Governmental Authority, except (i) the filing with the SEC of such reports under, and other compliance with, the Exchange Act and the Securities Act as may be required in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) such filings as may be required in connection with

25


state and local Transfer Taxes, and (iii) where failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a BCI IV Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.4 Investment Representation. BCI IV Holdco is acquiring the IPT Holdco Interests for its own account for purposes of investment and not with a view to the distribution of its interests therein or dividing all or any part of its interest therein with any other Person. BCI IV Holdco acknowledges that the sale of the IPT Holdco Interests has not been registered under Law (including the Securities Act and any state, local or foreign securities laws) and that the IPT Holdco Interests may not be transferred without registration under, pursuant to an exemption from or in a transaction not subject to, Law.

Section 4.5Taxes.

(a)BCI IV Holdco’s indirect ownership of the BTC REITs will not cause a material amount received or accrued by any BTC REIT during such BTC REIT’s taxable year that includes the Closing Date to fail to be to treated as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code by reason of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code to the extent that it would cause such BTC REIT to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) or 856(c)(3) of the Code for such year.

(b)BCI IV Holdco’s indirect ownership of the BTC REITs will not cause any BTC REIT to be “closely held” as determined under Section 856(h) of the Code at any time during such BTC REIT’s taxable year that includes the Closing Date.

Section 5.6 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This  Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both

28


written and oral, among the Parties, or between any of them, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except for the provisions of Section 2.7 (which, from and after the Closing Date, shall be for the benefit of, and may be enforced by, IPT Liquidator LLC). The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations between the Parties and are for the sole benefit of the Parties.

Section 5.7 Amendment. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the Parties hereto by action taken or authorized by the Company Board (with the prior approval and recommendation of the Company Special Committee) and the BCI IV Board (with the prior approval and recommendation of the BCI IV Special Committee), respectively. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Parties.

Section 5.8 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all Actions (whether at Law, in contract or in tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland without giving effect to any choice or conflicts of Law principles (whether of the State of Maryland or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland.

Section 5.9 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each Party irrevocably agrees and consents (a) to submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Circuit Court for Baltimore City (Maryland), and to request assignment to the Business and Technology Case Management Program (the “Maryland Court”) for the purpose of any Action (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise), directly or indirectly, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the actions of the Parties in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement of this Agreement, (b) that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) that it waives any objection to the laying of venue of any Action in the Maryland Court and agrees not to plead or claim in the Maryland Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum, (d) that it will not bring any Action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the actions of the parties hereto in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement of this Agreement in any court other than the Maryland Court, and (e) that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to request and/or consent to the assignment of any Action to the Maryland Court’s Business and Technology Case Management Program. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or affect the rights of any Party to  pursue appeals from any judgments or order of the Maryland Court as provided by Law. Each Party agrees, (x) to the extent such Party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of

29


Maryland, to appoint and maintain an agent in the State of Maryland as such Party’s agent for acceptance of legal process, and (y) that service of process may also be made on such Party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the United States Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service. Service made pursuant to clauses (x) or (y) above shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Maryland.

Section 5.10 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 5.11 Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

Section 5.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.11.

Section 5.13 Authorship. The Parties agree that the terms and language of  this Agreement are the result of negotiations among the Parties and their respective advisors and, as a result, there shall be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against any Party. Any controversy over construction of this Agreement shall be  decided without regard to events of authorship or negotiation.

Exhibit 10.2

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO

AMENDED AND RESTATED ADVISORY AGREEMENT (2020)

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AMENDED AND RESTATED ADVISORY AGREEMENT (2020) (this “Amendment”), dated and effective as of July 15, 2020, is entered into by and among Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Corporation”), BCI IV Operating Partnership LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and BCI IV Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”). The Corporation, the Operating Partnership and the Advisor are collectively referred to in this Amendment as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Advisory Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, the Parties entered into that certain Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (2020) (the “Advisory Agreement”), dated as of June 12, 2020, pursuant to which the Advisor agreed to provide certain services to the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into this Amendment to provide that the Advisor shall receive a fee for rendering services related to the development, construction, improvement or stabilization of certain Real Property or overseeing the provision of these services by third parties.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Sections 9 (b) – (f) are hereby renumbered to be Sections 9 (c) – (g) and new Section 9(b) of the Advisory Agreement is hereby included:

(b) Development Fee. The Advisor shall receive a Development Fee (defined below) with respect to each Real Property for which the Advisor provides Development Services (defined below) or Development Oversight Services (defined below), either in connection with the acquisition of such Real Property (including, without limitation, forward commitment acquisitions), the stabilization of such Real Property (including, without limitation, development or value add transactions), or both (any of the foregoing being “Development Real Properties”). In connection with providing services related to the development, construction, improvement or stabilization, including tenant improvements, of Development Real Properties (collectively, “Development Services”) or overseeing the provision of these services by third parties on behalf of the Corporation (“Development Oversight Services”), the fee (the “Development Fee”) will be an amount that will equal up to 4.0% of Total Project Cost of such Development Real Property (or the Corporation’s proportional interest therein with respect to Real Property held in Joint Ventures or other entities that are co-owned). If the Advisor engages a third party to provide Development Services directly to the Corporation,  the third party shall be compensated directly by the Corporation, and the Advisor shall receive the Development Fee if it provides the Development Oversight Services. The total of all Development Fees and Acquisition Expenses paid by the Corporation with respect to any Real Property shall not exceed 6%


of the Contract Purchase Price or the Total Project Cost (as applicable) of such Real Property unless Development Fees in excess of such amount are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors.

2.This Amendment constitutes an amendment to the Advisory Agreement. Except as set forth in this Amendment, all of the provisions of the Advisory Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Advisory Agreement and the provisions of this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.

3.This Amendment (a) shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; (b) may be executed in several counterparts, each of which counterpart, when so executed and delivered, shall constitute an original agreement, and all such separate counterparts shall constitute but one and the same agreement; and (c) together with the Advisory Agreement, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, consents and understandings relating to such subject matter.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date and year first above written.

ARTICLE 3

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

3.1Composition. The Partnership shall have an executive committee of the Partnership (the “Executive Committee”) selected by the General Partner, the IPT Limited Partner and the BCIMC Limited Partner as provided herein. At all times during the Term, the Executive Committee shall be comprised of three (3) members (each member, a Representative”) consisting of: (a) one
(1)Representative appointed by the General Partner; (b) one (1) Representative appointed by the IPT Limited Partner; and (c) one (1) Representative appointed by the BCIMC Limited Partner (acting collectively) (the “BCIMC Representative”). As of the date hereof, the Representatives  shall be: (i) Dwight Merriman, appointed by the General Partner; (ii) Tom McGonagle, appointed by the IPT Limited Partner; and (iii) either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford, appointed by the BCIMC Limited Partner. For purposes of clarity, the consent of either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford  with respect to any matter requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee hereunder shall be deemed to be the consent of the BCIMC Representative with respect to such matter and any Partner’s or Representative’s obligation to provide notice to or solicit the consent of the BCIMC Representative hereunder shall be deemed satisfied to the extent such Partner or Representative provides notice to or solicits the consent of either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Representative shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including the Partners’ respective interests, and shall have no fiduciary duty or other duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of, or factors affecting, any other Person. In the event of the resignation or death of a Representative, the Partner that so appointed such Representative shall designate a successor to such Representative within thirty (30) days after such resignation or death by written notice to all of the Partners. Any Partner also shall have the right to replace its Representative by giving written notice of the removal of such Representative to all of the Partners, together with its appointment of a replacement therefor. Representatives shall  be entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership for their reasonable travel expenses and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their attendance at meetings of the Executive Committee (provided, however, that with respect to any particular meeting of the Executive Committee, the Partnership shall only be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the BCIMC Representative incurred by Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford (but not both) in connection with such meeting), but shall not be entitled to any fees, remuneration or other reimbursements from the Partnership or any of the Partners. Each Representative shall be bound by Section 12.11 of this Agreement.

3.2Role of Executive Committee. Subject to Section 4.4(e), the unanimous consent of the Representatives constituting a quorum (the “Approval of the Executive Committee” or “Approval”, and any matter upon receiving the Approval of the Executive Committee, “Approved”) shall be required with respect to any Proposed Investment, all Major Decisions, as more specifically set forth in Section 6.2, and such other matters as are prescribed herein as requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee; provided, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, that the General Partner shall be entitled to take any action that the General Partner determines to be reasonably necessary to prevent imminent and material damage or to prevent impending health, life

5


or safety emergencies without the Approval of the Executive Committee. Any Major Decision requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee that is proposed by any Representative but is  not Approved or deemed Approved shall constitute a “Deadlock Event”.

3.3Meetings.

(a)General. Any Executive Committee meetings held in person shall be held in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area except as otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee (either in advance of or at such meeting); provided, however, in the case of meetings held by telephone conference or similar means pursuant to Section 3.3(e), no Representative need be in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area.

(b)Nature of Meetings. The General Partner shall give notice to each Representative of each meeting, including the time, place and purpose of such meeting. Notice of each such meeting shall be sent by overnight delivery, personal delivery, or electronic communication to each Limited Partner and each Representative, addressed to him or her at the last address provided by the Representative or Limited Partner to the General Partner for such purpose, at least five (5) “Business Days” (which shall mean days upon which banks in New York, New York are open for normal business) before the day on which such meeting is to be held, except  as otherwise provided herein. Such notice need not be given to any Representative who in fact attends such meeting. A written waiver of notice delivered to the General Partner, whether before or after the time of the meeting stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Any Limited Partner with representation on the Executive Committee shall also have the right to call a meeting of the Executive Committee to discuss a Major Decision, by giving notice of such meeting to each Representative in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3 that apply to the General Partner.

(c)Quorum. Except as set forth below, at all meetings of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is to be considered, the presence of the BCIMC Representative and at least one (1) Representative appointed by either the General Partner or the IPT Limited Partner shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. At any duly called meeting of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is to be considered, if a quorum shall not be present solely as a result of the failure of any Representative to attend or as a result of the failure of any Partner to appoint its Representative, after the death or resignation of its Representative, the Partner that called such meeting may call a second meeting to consider such matter on twenty-four

(24) hours’ notice and if the Representative that was not present fails to attend such second meeting or is not appointed, such meeting may nevertheless take place and the Representative that was not present shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision proposed at such subsequently held meeting.

(d)Action Without a Meeting. Any action of the Executive Committee may be taken without a meeting of the Executive Committee, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing or by electronic transmission (including email confirmation or approval), setting forth the action to be so taken, shall be provided by all of the Representatives. Any Representative shall be entitled to require the General Partner to circulate a written consent to the Executive Committee in lieu of meeting. In the event the General Partner promptly delivers any written consent requested by any Representative in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence  and such requesting Representative fails to return such written consent within the time periods prescribed for any such meeting as set forth above, such requesting Representative shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision described in such written consent.

(e)Telephone Participation. Any Representative may participate in  any  meeting of the Executive Committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications

6


equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting may talk with and hear one another.

(f)Rules. The Executive Committee may adopt by Approval such other rules of procedure governing its meetings, communications and actions as it deems necessary, appropriate or helpful.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Percentage Interest of the Special Limited Partner shall at all times be zero percent (0%). The Percentage Interests of the Partners as of the date of this  Agreement are set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, which may be revised from time to time by the General Partner (without the consent of the Limited Partners or the Special Limited Partner) to reflect the then applicable Percentage Interests of the Partners. Except as otherwise provided under this Agreement, the respective Percentage Interests of the Partners also shall constitute the respective voting interests of the Partners for any votes of the Partners required or permitted under the Act or this Agreement with regard to any matter specifically requiring a vote of the Partners under this Agreement.

(b)Interests. As referred to herein, a Partner’s “Interest” means the entire interest of a Partner in the Partnership at any particular time, including, without limitation, the right of such Partner to any and all rights and benefits to which a Partner may be entitled as provided in this Agreement, together with the obligations of such Partner to comply with all the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(b)Capital Contributions for Approved Investments. During the Investment Period, the Partners shall be obligated to fund, pro rata based on their Percentage Interests: (i) any Capital Contributions required in order to fund the closing of acquisitions or development costs in respect of Approved Investments that occur during the Investment Period (exclusive of amounts allocated to such acquisitions that are included in the Initial Capital Contributions); and (ii) with respect to any Approved Investment that is Approved by the Executive Committee during the Investment Period but not consummated as of the end of the Investment Period, the Partners shall make any Capital Contribution required in order to fund the closing of the acquisition or development costs in respect of such Approved Investment and pay any costs or expenses related to such Approved Investment.

(iv)any Capital Contributions required in order to fund amounts paid or payable to lenders under guarantees or credit enhancement made or provided by the Partnership, the General Partner, any Limited Partner, or the Special Limited Partner (or any of their Affiliates) to such lenders pursuant to any guarantee or credit enhancement relating to any Indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities, which guarantee or credit enhancement is Approved by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 6.2 (to the extent that, after taking into account any existing cash reserves of the Partnership and the Investment Entities, the Partnership has insufficient funds to pay the required amounts), but not to the extent that the events giving rise to such payments were caused by or resulted from any Willful Bad Act or gross negligence by the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee; provided, that to the extent any obligation under such guaranty or credit enhancement is caused by any Willful Bad Act or gross negligence by  (A)  the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee, such obligations shall be an obligation solely of the General Partner or such GP Indemnitee or (B) a Limited Partner or any LP Indemnitee, such obligations shall be an obligation solely of such Limited Partner or such LP Indemnitee;

(v)any Capital Contributions required in order to fund such amounts which the General Partner reasonably and in good faith determines (after taking into account any existing cash reserves of the Partnership or the Investment Entities, as applicable) are necessary to fund the payment of debt service obligations with  respect to any Indebtedness secured by any Investment or other assets of the Partnership or an Investment Entity (pursuant to a financing previously Approved by the Executive Committee and provided that the fair value of any such Investment or assets securing such Indebtedness is not less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding amount of such Indebtedness), real estate taxes, utility costs, insurance premiums, and/or other costs or expenses reasonably necessary to prevent imminent and material damage or to prevent impending health, life or safety emergencies (all such costs, collectively “Preservation Costs”);

(vii)any Capital Contributions required in order to fund the payment of the General Partner Carried Interest Amount Deficiency pursuant to Section 5.3(a)(ii); and

(viii)any Capital Contributions required in order to fund the payment of the Redemption Price Deficiency pursuant to Section 5.3(b)(ii)(A).

(d)Capital Call Notices. With respect to each Capital Contribution to be made  by the Partners pursuant to this Agreement, including following the Approval of an Approved Investment, the General Partner shall issue a written capital call notice (a “Capital Call Notice”) to each Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) setting forth: (i) the total amount of equity to be contributed by the Partners to the Partnership; (ii) the amount that each Partner must contribute, which shall be the product of the Capital Contribution and such Partner’s Percentage Interest; and (iii) the date on which such Capital Contribution must be made, which date shall not  be less than five (5) Business Days following the date of such notice (the “Capital Call Funding Period”); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the General Partner fails to promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) issue a Capital Call Notice pursuant to this Section 4.3(d) with respect to the funding of any Preservation Costs identified in a written request from the BCIMC Limited Partner (in either case,  a “Limited Partner Funding Request”) that the General Partner issue such a Capital Call  Notice, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall be entitled to issue a Capital Call Notice to each Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) for the Preservation Costs identified in the Limited Partner Funding Request (a “Limited Partner Capital Call”) and in such event the Partners shall make such Capital Contribution set out in the Limited Partner Capital Call pro rata based on their Percentage Interests. If the Capital Call Notice is issued with respect to an Approved Investment, the total amount of equity to be contributed by the Partners will include the amount of acquisition costs and other costs pursuant to Section 6.4(c) incurred with respect to such Approved Investment. By the date specified by the General Partner (or, to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 4.3(d), the BCIMC Limited Partner) in the applicable Capital Call Notice, each Partner shall be required to fund its Capital Contributions with respect thereto as required by this Agreement.  If  any transaction for which Capital Contributions are funded is terminated, then so long as, and to  the extent that, the Partnership no longer is liable in connection therewith, such Capital Contributions shall be returned to the Partners within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of such termination less any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such terminated transaction. The General Partner shall hold each Partner’s Capital Contribution in trust until all Partners have made their respective capital contributions or a Partner is deemed to be a Defaulting Partner pursuant to Section 4.4.

(e)Maximum Capital Commitments.Unless the Executive Committee has

10


Approved a Major Decision to the contrary, under no circumstances will any Partner be obligated to (i) make Capital Contributions which, when aggregated with all its prior Capital Contributions, exceeds the amount set forth as its “Capital Commitment” on Schedule 1 (with respect to each Partner, the “Capital Commitment”) or (ii) make Capital Contributions after the expiration of the Investment Period in respect of any Proposed Investment not Approved by the Executive Committee on or before the expiration of the Investment Period.

4.4Treatment of Defaulting Partner.

(a)Default. If any Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, within the period set forth in the applicable Capital Call Notice, such Partner shall be considered a “Defaulting Partner.” A Partner that has become a Defaulting Partner shall not be entitled to any additional period in which to cure the default and pay its required Capital Contribution. The portion of such Capital Contribution that such Defaulting Partner was required  to make and did not actually fund shall be referred to herein as the “Unfunded Amount.”

(b)Remedies Generally. If, and to the extent, a Defaulting Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, each of the other Partners that has fully funded its required Capital Contribution that is not an Affiliate of the Defaulting Partner (each, a “Contributing Partner”), shall have the right, without obligation, either to:

(i)Require the General Partner (or the BCIMC Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) to (and the General Partner (or the BCIMC Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) shall) revoke or  revise the Capital Call Notice, whereupon any Capital Contributions paid by the Contributing Partner pursuant to such Capital Call Notice shall be returned to it within ten (10) Business Days following such Partner’s election to revoke or revise the Capital Call Notice and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as never having been made (and no default shall be deemed to have occurred), in which event the Executive Committee shall reconsider the needs of the Partnership for additional capital and the General Partner may issue a new Capital Call Notice following such reconsideration with the Approval of the Executive Committee.

(ii)In addition to making its own Capital Contribution then due, fund the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who  has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, on the terms set forth below in this Section 4.4(b)(ii). Any Unfunded Amount contributed to the Partnership by the Contributing Partner shall be deemed to be senior preferred equity (“Senior Preferred Equity Contributions”) and shall be entitled to an amount equal to a cumulative per annum return of twenty percent (20%), compounded annually to the extent not paid currently, on each dollar of a Contributing Partner’s Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, from the first day that such dollar is contributed to the Partnership pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until the date that such dollar of the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution is returned to that Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 5.2 (the “Senior Preferred Return”). In the event a Contributing Partner elects to fund the Unfunded Amount pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), such Contributing Partner shall notify the other Partners in writing upon such election. A Defaulting Partner may cause the Partnership to repay the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, together with any accrued Senior Preferred Return, at any time, by contributing such amounts to the Partnership and directing the General Partner to distribute such amounts to the Contributing Partner(s) in accordance with Section 5.2(a)(i) and Section 5.2(a)(ii).

11


(iii)In addition to the foregoing, make an additional Capital Contribution  to the Partnership equal to the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, whereupon (i) the Contributing Partner(s) shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution for all purposes hereunder (including in respect of Capital Accounts, Carried Interest Distributions and calculations under Section 5.3) in an amount equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the amount funded and (ii) the Percentage Interests of each Partner shall be recalculated at such time pursuant to Section 4.2 such that the dilution of the deemed Capital Contribution reduces only the Percentage Interest of the Defaulting Partner and increases only the Percentage Interest(s) of the Contributing Partner(s). Further, in such event when any IPT Partner is the Defaulting Partner and to the extent such IPT Partner fails to cure the applicable default within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of written notice from the BCIMC Limited Partner, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall have the right to declare by written notice to the General Partner that each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(y), 5.2(a)(v)(z), 5.2(a)(vi)(y) and 5.2(a)(vi)(z) shall be decreased to an amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to the product of (A) such percentage and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests after adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii) and the denominator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests prior to adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), and following the adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(x) and 5.2(a)(vi)(x) shall be increased by a corresponding amount so that the total of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v) and 5.2(a)(vi) is always one hundred percent (100%).

For purposes of this Section 4.4(b), if more than one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution pursuant to clause (ii) above and/or to make an additional Capital Contribution pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Contributing Partners will fund their pro rata share, based on relative Percentage Interests, of such Senior Preferred Equity Contribution and/or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in an aggregate collective amount equal to the Unfunded Amount. If only one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or an additional Capital Contribution, the electing Contributing Partner shall fund the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in the entire amount of the Unfunded Amount.

(c)Default Date and Default Period. Subject to Section 4.4(b)(i), the day that a Partner becomes a Defaulting Partner shall be referred to herein as the “Default Date”. If any of the Contributing Partners elect the remedy set forth in Section 4.4(b)(ii), the Defaulting Partner shall be deemed to have cured the default at such time as the Contributing Partner(s) (or its Affiliate, as applicable) actually receive full repayment of their Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon (the “Cure Date” being the date on which the Contributing Partner receives full repayment of the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon, and the period from the Default Date until the Cure Date (if applicable), the “Default Period”). In addition to the specific remedies set forth in this Section 4.4, the Contributing Partner(s) shall have all rights and remedies available at law and in equity arising from a Defaulting Partner’s failure to contribute its Unfunded Amount.

(d)Termination of Rights. The following rights of a Defaulting Partner under this Agreement shall terminate on the Default Date and shall only be reinstated on the Cure Date, if applicable:

12


(i)With respect to any Defaulting Partner, (A) the right of first opportunity in connection with a Transfer by the Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 8.1(c), (B) the right to tag-along to a Transfer by the Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 8.1(d), (C) the right to deliver a Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 9.1 and (D) the right to initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2;

(ii)If each of (x) any BCIMC Limited Partner and (y) the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) is a Defaulting Partner, the General Partner shall have no further obligation to present to the Partnership potential investments pursuant to Section 6.6; and

(iii)If either IPT Partner is the Defaulting Partner and the General  Partner is an Affiliate of the IPT Limited Partner, the General Partner may be removed for Cause pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(viii); provided, however, removal for such Cause shall be permitted only during the Default Period.

(e)Exclusion from the Executive Committee. During the Default Period for a Defaulting Partner, any Representative appointed by such Defaulting Partner, or by any other Partner that is an Affiliate of such Defaulting Partner, shall no longer be entitled to participate in any way in the affairs of the Executive Committee and shall not be counted toward a quorum.

4.5Capital Accounts. The Capital Contributions of each Partner shall be credited to  such Partner’s “Capital Account.” A Partner’s Capital Account also shall be credited with the amount of income and gain of the Partnership allocable to the Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any income and gain exempt from tax), and shall be debited with (a) such Partner’s share of all Partnership distributions and (b) the amount of losses and deductions allocated to such Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any income and gain exempt from tax). Capital Accounts shall be maintained and adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations and the more detailed rules set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.  A Partner shall be considered to have only  one Capital Account. Any permitted transferee (pursuant to the terms hereof) of all or any portion of an Interest shall succeed to the portion of the Capital Account relating to the Interest transferred.

4.6No Interest on, or Right to Return of Capital Contributions or Capital Account. No Partner shall be entitled to receive any interest on its Capital Contributions or its outstanding Capital Account balance. Except upon the dissolution and termination of the Partnership to the extent provided herein, or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Partner shall have the right to demand or to receive the return of all or any part of its Capital Contribution or its Capital Account.

4.7Cash Contributions. All Capital Contributions to the Partnership by the Partners shall be in cash denominated in U.S. dollars.

5.4 Timing of Distributions.

(a)Quarterly Distributions. For purposes of Section 5.2, Cash Available for Distribution (other than proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition of assets or from a refinancing or other borrowing) shall be distributed at least quarterly within sixty (60) days after  the end of each fiscal quarter. Cash Available for Distribution also may be distributed at such other time or times as the General Partner may decide in anticipation of the quarterly-end determination thereof, and any such distributions shall be subject to quarterly-end adjustment based on the amount of Cash Available for Distribution ultimately determined to be available for distribution  with respect to such quarter.

(b)Sales Proceeds and Refinancing Proceeds. For purposes of Section 5.2 and subject to Section 5.4(d), Cash Available for Distribution derived from a sale, exchange or other disposition of assets (including condemnation proceeds) or from a refinancing or other borrowing shall be distributed within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such proceeds by the Partnership.

(c)Sale of All or Substantially All Assets. Cash Available for Distribution derived from the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership (or of all of the Investment Entities) will be distributed to the Partners as provided in Section 10.2(a).

(d)Investment of Cash Available for Distribution. Pending distribution, funds held by the Partnership that are required to be distributed pursuant to Section 5.2 may, in the General Partner’s discretion, be invested in cash (or cash equivalents), interest bearing accounts, money market funds or instruments or other liquid securities that are intended to provide for the preservation of capital.

5.5Allocations. All items of income, gain, deduction and loss of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A attached hereto.

5.6No Violations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership shall make no distribution that violates the Act.

5.7 Withholding.

(a)Requirements. The Partnership shall comply with withholding requirements under United States federal, state and local law and shall remit amounts withheld to, and file required forms with, the applicable jurisdictions. To the extent the Partnership is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Partner (including any taxes arising under Code §§6221 through 6241, as amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor

14


provisions and any similar provision of state or local tax laws (the “Partnership Tax Audit Rules”), the amount withheld shall be treated as a distribution to that Partner in the amount of the withholding. In the event of any claimed over-withholding, Partners shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction, and not against the Partnership. If the amount withheld or required to be withheld (including under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules) was not withheld from actual distributions, the Partnership may, at its option, (i) require the Partner to reimburse the Partnership for such withholding or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding. Each Partner agrees to furnish the Partnership with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Partnership to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations. Each Partner will indemnify the General Partner and the Partnership against any losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, interest and penalties) related to any withholding obligations with respect to allocations or distributions made to it by the Partnership other than amounts resulting from the Partnership’s failure to timely pay over any amounts withheld or to timely file any returns.

(b)Exemptions. The Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize or eliminate any withholding tax imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts  distributable by the Partnership to the Partners, including under Sections 1471 and 1472 of the Code, to the extent permissible pursuant to applicable law. The General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist each Partner to obtain any exemption, exclusion, credit or refund associated with the taxation (including, without limitation, withholding tax) of any amounts distributable to the Partner (“Exemption”) for which the Partnership or the Partner qualifies, in each case at such Partner’s expense. In addition, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist each Partner in obtaining available information for such Partner to make filings, applications or elections to obtain the Exemption at such Partner’s expense. If, and to the extent, reasonably requested in writing by a Partner, and at the expense of the requesting Partner, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filings, applications or elections to be prepared and filed on the Partner’s behalf with respect to Exemptions from withholding or other tax arising out of the Partner’s Interest. The General Partner acknowledges that, absent a change in law or the administrative or judicial interpretation thereof, it does not intend to withhold taxes under Sections 1445 and 1446 of the Code with respect to BCIMC WCBAF’s share of any gains from the disposition of an Investment Entity on the basis that each Investment Entity qualifies as a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity” within the meaning of Section 897(h)(4) of the Code; provided that BCIMC WCBAF provides the Partnership with any necessary forms and all other documentation and representations reasonably requested by the General Partner to avoid such withholding and provided that the General Partner is not otherwise required to withhold such taxes by an applicable tax or other governmental authority. In connection with the foregoing, BCIMC WCBAF represents and warrants that it holds less than 50% of the Interests.

(c)Withholding Notices. The Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) give reasonable notice prior to any withholding to any taxing authority on behalf of a Partner, and (ii) give such Partner the reasonable opportunity to provide such applicable forms, information returns or other documentation, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner in its reasonable discretion, to establish an exemption from withholding with respect to the Partner under the laws of the applicable taxing jurisdiction; provided, that such documentation shall be provided to the General Partner no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the date that withholding would otherwise be required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Partnership from withholding on any distributions in respect of a Partner if the General Partner determines in its reasonable discretion that withholding is required under applicable law.

(d)Tax Status of the BCIMC Limited Partner.

15


(i)Each of BCIMC College, BCIMC Municipal, BCIMC Public Service, BCIMC Teachers, BCIMC WCB and BCIMC Hydro will provide the General Partner with a duly-completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for any available exemption from or reduction in withholding taxes, and will provide the General Partner with a signed affidavit in the form of Exhibit N hereto (the “QFPF Certification”).

(ii)BCIMC WCBAF has informed the General Partner that it is generally exempt from U.S. federal income tax on U.S. source dividends (other than capital gain dividends taxable under Section 897(h)(1) of the Code) and interest by reason of being a company, organization or other arrangement, described in either subsection 3(a) or subsection 3(b) of Article XXI (3) of the income tax treaty between the United States and Canada (the Treaty”).

(iii)BCIMC WCBAF will provide the General Partner with a duly- completed IRS Form W-8EXP and/or IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for such exemption or reduced withholding, as the case may be.

(iv)Under existing law and assuming BCIMC WCBAF provides the IRS forms (and any applicable renewals, updates, or successors to such forms under applicable law) described in the preceding clause (iii) on a timely basis, the General Partner does not intend to withhold from any distribution to BCIMC WCBAF where such distribution is made in respect of BCIMC WCBAF’s distributive share of U.S. source dividends or interest, other than withholding required as a result of the application of Section 897(h)(1) of the Code to any such distributions.

(e)For the avoidance of doubt, any taxes, penalties and interest payable under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules by the Partnership or any fiscally transparent entity in which the Partnership owns an interest shall be treated as specifically attributable to the Partners of the Partnership, and the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allocate the burden of (or any diminution in distributable proceeds resulting from) any such taxes, penalties or interest to those Partners to whom such amounts are specifically attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions or otherwise), as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE 6

(iii)engage in any kind of activity and perform and carry out contracts of any kind necessary to, or in connection with, or incidental to the accomplishment of, the purposes and objectives of the Partnership, as may be lawfully carried on or performed by a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware, and in each state where the Partnership has been qualified to do business; and

(iv)take such actions (including, without limitation, amending this Agreement) or decline to take such actions as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion are advisable or necessary, based upon advice of counsel to the Partnership, (A) to preserve the tax status of the Partnership as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes or (B) to conform this Agreement to either (I) the Act, or

(b)Partnership Budget.

(i)No later than November 1 of each year, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), a draft annual budget consistent with the provisions of this Agreement for the Partnership for the forthcoming calendar year relating to Investments owned by Investment Entities as of September 30 of the current year (other than those for which existing approved budgets are not yet in place pursuant to Section 6.3(b)(ii) below), as well as for due diligence, engineering, entitlement and similar pursuit costs for potential investments, together with all assumptions, supporting materials, financial and other information and explanations about the operations of the Partnership and the Investment Entities reasonably

20


necessary to allow the Executive Committee to make an informed decision about the draft budget, including historical and expected operating revenues and expenses and historical and expected capital expenditures and projected operating income and expenses and capital expenditures for any Investments and Approved Investments (collectively, the “Supporting Materials”). The General Partner shall provide any additional information reasonably requested by any Representative in connection with the budget review process promptly following such request and the Executive Committee shall have reasonable access during normal business hours of the  General Partner to the General Partner’s management personnel to obtain and discuss such information. No less than fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of  the draft annual budget described above (or such other date Approved by the Executive Committee), the General Partner shall call a meeting of the Executive Committee for the purpose of considering and approving such draft annual budget (the “Initial Budget Approval”). Within ten (10) Business Days after the Initial Budget Approval, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), a full Partnership budget by adding the initial budget approval partnership level expenses such as general and administrative expenses and GP  Fees and shall set a date for a meeting of the Executive Committee for the purpose of considering and approving such draft annual budget, with the objective of finalizing the Approved Partnership Budget no later than December 31. The General Partner shall consider in good faith, but without any obligation to make, any suggested changes and adjustments to the draft annual budget proposed by any Representative (other than changes that are inconsistent with the manner in which GP Fees are computed in accordance with Exhibit D), and if any changes are made by the General Partner to the draft annual budget prior to its approval, the General  Partner shall submit a revised annual budget to the Executive Committee for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), together with any new, additional or updated Supporting Materials (not previously provided) that are reasonably necessary for the Executive Committee to make an informed decision about the revised draft annual budget. If the Executive Committee rejects the draft annual budget for any calendar year that is submitted to it for approval as  a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), then not later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such rejection, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), either the same or a revised draft of the annual budget for such year, incorporating any such changes the General Partner elects to make based upon its good faith consideration of any feedback and comments provided on the  prior draft annual budget by a Representative to the General Partner (other than changes that are inconsistent with the manner in which GP Fees are computed in accordance with Exhibit D). Upon the Approval of the full draft budget by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 6.2(c), such budget shall become the Approved Partnership Budget for all purposes under this Agreement and shall supersede any prior Approved Partnership Budget; provided, however, if the Representatives are unable to agree on an annual budget, the prior year’s Approved Partnership Budget shall continue in effect (save and except in respect of non- recurring line items), adjusted by uncontrollable costs (such as, insurance, taxes and utilities), inflation and the requirements of tenant leases entered into by the Investment Entities. The failure of the Executive Committee to Approve two (2) consecutive annual budgets within the time periods set forth in this Section 6.3(b)(i) shall be deemed to be a Deadlock Event.

(ii)The General Partner shall be authorized to make the expenditures and

21


incur the obligations set forth in, and otherwise implement, the then Approved Partnership Budget.

(c)Filings. The General Partner shall take such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to form or qualify the Partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Partnership is doing business or owns property or in which such formation or qualification is necessary in order to protect the limited liability of each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner or in order to continue in effect such formation or qualification. If required by law, the General Partner shall file or cause to be filed for recordation in the office of the appropriate authorities of the State of Delaware, and in the proper office or offices in each other jurisdiction in which the Partnership is formed or qualified, such certificates (including, without limitation, limited partnership and fictitious name certificates) and other documents as are required by the applicable statutes, rules or regulations of any such jurisdiction or as are necessary to reflect the identity of the Partners and the amounts of their respective Capital Contributions.

(d)Partnership Tax Returns. The General Partner shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file on or before the due date (including any extensions thereof) any Federal, state or local tax returns required to be filed by the Partnership.

(e)Appraisals.

(i)The General Partner shall cause a nationally recognized MAI appraiser with experience in appraising the value of real estate having a similar character to and in a similar geographic location as the Investments (a “Qualified Appraiser”) to value (A) each Development Investment and Value-Add Investment within the calendar year following the date of Stabilization of each such Development Investment and Value-Add Investment and annually thereafter and (B) each Core Investment within the calendar year following the date of the acquisition of each such Core Investment and annually thereafter, in each case at the expense of the Partnership. The General Partner shall direct the appointed Qualified Appraiser to finalize each such appraisal no later than two (2) weeks prior to the end of the calendar year in which such appraisal is being conducted (the “Appraisal Date),  and to reflect an effective date of such valuation as of December 31 of such calendar year; provided, that the General Partner shall have no liability with respect to the failure of such Qualified Appraiser to finalize any such appraisal by the Appraisal Date. The General Partner shall deliver to the BCIMC Limited Partner any  appraisal commissioned pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(i) upon the written request of the BCIMC Limited Partner.

(ii)In addition, no more than 180 days prior to the Calculation Date, the General Partner shall value the entire Portfolio (the “Portfolio Appraisal”) by either (A) aggregating the values of the last annual appraisals commissioned pursuant to Section 6.3(e)(i) or (B) commissioning a Qualified Appraiser to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) and, in either case, subject to clause (iii) below, such Portfolio Appraisal shall be binding on the Partnership and the Partners absent manifest error or fraud. The Portfolio  Appraisal performed pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(ii) shall be deemed to have been performed by the “GP Appraiser”. The Portfolio Appraisal shall be used to determine the Appraised Value of the Portfolio (including, without limitation, the Carried Interest Distributions) in accordance with Section 5.3.

(iii)Within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of the Portfolio Appraisal, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall provide written notice (the Appraisal

22


Notice”) to the General Partner electing to (x) agree to the Portfolio Appraisal or (y) reject the Portfolio Appraisal. In the event the BCIMC Limited Partner rejects the Portfolio Appraisal, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall select, approve and appoint a Qualified Appraiser to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal (the “LP Appraiser”) within five (5) Business Days following the General Partner’s receipt of the Appraisal Notice (the “LP Appraiser Appointment Period”) by providing notice to the General Partner of such appointment (the “LP Appraiser Notice”). If the BCIMC Limited Partner fails to appoint the LP Appraiser within the LP Appraiser Appointment Period, the Portfolio Appraisal shall be conclusive on the Partners. If both the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser are appointed, then the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) Qualified Appraiser (the “Independent Appraiser” and, together with the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser, collectively, the “Appraisers”) and give notice thereof to the Partners within ten (10) days following the General Partner’s receipt of the LP Appraiser Notice (the “Independent Appraiser Appointment Period”). If the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser fail to appoint the Independent Appraiser within the Independent Appraiser Appointment Period, any Partner  (other than the Special Limited Partner) may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint the Independent Appraiser.

(iv)Each of the Appraisers shall promptly fix a time for the completion of the Portfolio Appraisal, which shall not be later than thirty (30) days from the appointment of the Independent Appraiser. The Appraisers shall determine the Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal by determining the fair market value of the assets to be appraised (other than cash in Partnership accounts), such being the fairest price estimated in the terms of money which the Partnership could obtain if such assets were sold, for all cash, in the open market allowing a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases such assets with knowledge of the business of the Partnership and such assets. If the Appraisers are not able to agree upon a single Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal, each shall  render its own Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal. Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as to the Portfolio Value, if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is not more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the values proposed by the Appraisers shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”; provided, that if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the two appraisals closest in value shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”.

(v)If the GP Appraiser, the LP Appraiser and the Independent Appraiser are appointed, the General Partner shall pay for the services of the GP Appraiser,  the BCIMC Limited Partner and/or the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) shall  pay for the services of the LP Appraiser and the cost of the services of the Independent Appraiser shall be paid by the Partners pro rata in accordance with their Percentage Interests. The costs of the services of the Partnership’s  accountants, if applicable, shall be paid by the Partnership.

(vi)As used herein, “Appraised Value” of an asset or assets means, as the context so provides, the value of such asset(s) as determined by appraisal. For any Investment which has been acquired by the Partnership but has not yet been appraised by a Qualified Appraiser, the acquisition and development cost paid by the

23


Partnership for the Partnership’s interest in such Investment shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be its value established pursuant to this Section 6.3(e) until such time as such Investment is appraised in accordance with this Section 6.3.

(f)Limitations on Liability of General Partner. The General Partner shall have no liability hereunder, and shall not be in breach of its obligations hereunder, if the General Partner is unable to take any action or perform any duty which would otherwise be required hereunder to  the extent that (i) such inability to act was caused by the action or failure to act of the Limited Partners that are not Affiliates of the General Partner, (ii) such inability to act resulted from a lack of available funds (provided the General Partner has issued Capital Call Notices for such funds in accordance with Article 4), (iii) such action or omission would have been reasonably expected to violate any law, or (iv) such action or omission was based on the advice of reputable counsel or other consultant with knowledge of such matter selected by the General Partner with Due Care.

6.4Fees; Expenses.

(a)Fees. The Partnership shall pay to the General Partner the fees (the “GP Fees”) as compensation for providing services in managing the activities of the Partnership specifically enumerated in Section 6.3(a) (or where applicable providing such services to the Investment Entities) pursuant to and as and when set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto; provided, however, the General Partner may direct the Partnership to pay directly any of such GP Fees directly to any Unrelated Third Party (including the Special Limited Partner) or Affiliate.

(b)General Partner Expenses. Subject to Section 6.4(c), the General Partner shall be responsible for all the overhead expenses of performing the duties as described in Section 6.3(a), including without limitation, compensation for its employees, rent, utilities and other general internal expenses. The costs of forming the Partnership were funded in accordance with the A&R Partnership Agreement.

(c)Expenses of the Partnership. The Partnership (or the Investment Entities,  as applicable) shall bear all expenses in any Fiscal Year (other than those expressly related to the duties of the General Partner for which it receives the GP Fees pursuant to Section 6.4(a) above), including Unrelated Third Party expenses relating to the performance of those duties described in clauses (xii), (xviii) and (xxv) of Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(d), Section 6.3(e), Section 6.8 and expenses associated with any transactions outside the Partnership’s (or the Investment Entities’) general day- to-day operations, such as due diligence and other pursuit costs, any acquisitions, development activities, financing transactions, sales of assets, mergers, acquisitions and the like (such as accounting, engineering, consulting, environmental consulting, entitlement, brokerage, financing, legal costs and expenses), and including, without limitation, construction, repairs, replacements, the preparation of financial statements, property-level audits, annual valuations, tax returns and K-1s and tax compliance activities for the Investment Entities (collectively, “Partnership Expenses”); provided, however, that a reasonable allocation of the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates for legal services, coordinating annual valuations, tax and REIT compliance activities, financing activities and the preparation of reporting packages or reconciliations, in each case in respect of the Investment Entities or the Investments, shall be deemed to be Partnership Expenses to the extent such expenses are included in the Approved Partnership Budget or otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee, it being understood that the General Partner shall have no obligation to oversee or provide the foregoing activities unless there exists an Approved Partnership Budget for the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates performing the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any costs or expenses incurred by the Partnership or the Investment Entities in connection with establishing and maintaining the REIT status of the Investment Entities shall be borne entirely by the BCIMC Limited Partner, except to the extent the

24


Sell-Down Transferee requires similar REIT services and structural considerations, in which case, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Partnership.

(d)To the extent that any financing is obtained by the Partnership or any Investment Entity, the General Partner shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, but not an obligation, to provide (or cause one or more of its Affiliates to provide), any guaranties, indemnities or other credit enhancement as may be required by the lender providing such financing (each, a “Guaranty”); provided, that any such Guaranty shall be Approved by the Executive Committee in accordance with Section 6.2 (after taking into account the Partners’ obligations pursuant to Section 4.3(c)(iv) and any limitation on the deductibility of interest). In the event the General Partner or any of its Affiliates (but not the BCIMC Limited Partner or the Sell-Down Transferee) provides a Guaranty, the General Partner shall be entitled to an annual guarantee fee from the Partnership as set forth on Exhibit D (a “Guaranty Fee”), paid by January 15 of each year and shall be payable in arrears based the applicable averages as of December 31 of the prior year. In the event the Partnership does not pay all or any portion of any Guaranty Fee, such unpaid Guaranty Fee or portion thereof shall accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum until paid. Under no circumstances shall any Partner or any of their respective Affiliates have any obligation to provide any Guaranty.

6.5Permitted Other Activities.

Subject to Section 6.6, any Partner may engage independently or with others in other business ventures of every nature and description. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit any Affiliate of a Partner from dealing, or otherwise engaging in business, with Persons transacting business with the Partnership or an Investment Entity or from providing services relating to the purchase, sale, financing, management, development, operation, leasing or disposition of industrial-type facilities and receiving compensation therefor, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership or the Investment Entities. Except to the extent provided for under this Agreement, no Partner shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement or the relationship created hereby in or to such other ventures or activities or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership hereunder or any of the Investment Entities.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding other than by a settlement or judgment on the merits  or a conviction (for example, termination by a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent) shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption that the General Partner’s conduct did constitute Willful Bad  Acts or gross negligence. Each of the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner shall be solely responsible to the Partnership for any Losses relating to any guaranties of Indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities to the extent that such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates causes recourse liability for any GP Indemnitee in respect of such guaranties arising out of such Limited Partner’s or the  Special Limited Partner’s (i) Willful Bad Acts or (ii) gross negligence.

(d)Indemnification of the LP Indemnitees and the EC Indemnitees by the Partnership. To the extent that Section 6.7(c) (i) is not applicable, or (ii) if applicable, is not  sufficient to cover all Losses to the extent caused by the Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence by the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee, the Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the LP Indemnitees and EC Indemnitees to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all Losses arising out of their role as limited partners of the Partnership or Representatives, respectively, except to the extent such Losses are a result of the Willful Bad Acts of any such LP Indemnitee or EC Indemnitee.

(e)Defense Costs. Expenses incurred by any of the Indemnitees in defending  any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Sections 6.7(b) and (d), from time to time, upon request by the Indemnitee shall be advanced by the Partnership prior to the settlement or judgment of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount promptly, with interest calculated at the rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the “Federal Short-Term Rate” as defined in Section 1274(d)(1)(c)(i) of the Code, as amended (or any successor to such section) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is less, calculated upon the outstanding principal balance of such amount, if it shall be determined in a judicial proceeding or a binding arbitration that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement.

26

(h)Insurance.

Each insurance policy shall name as additional insureds the Partnership, the General  Partner, the Representatives and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine. The cost of any such insurance shall be an expense of the Partnership for purposes of Section 6.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, fidelity bonds or insurance, or errors and omissions insurance, or other insurance not falling within the first sentence hereof, shall be obtained and maintained on behalf of the General Partner at the General Partner’s expense unless otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the taking of any action and the incurring of any expense by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole discretion of the Tax Matters Partner and the provisions on limitations of liability of the General Partner and indemnification set forth in Section 6.7 of this Agreement shall be fully applicable to the Tax  Matters Partner in its capacity as such.

6.9Prohibited Payments. The General Partner shall not knowingly (a) make any payment or transfer anything of value with the intent, or which has the purpose or effect of, engaging in commercial bribery, or acceptance of or acquiescence in kickbacks or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining or retaining business and not promise, offer, or (b) give to a government official, directly or indirectly, any money or anything else of value, for the government official himself or herself or another Person, in order to influence that government official to act or refrain from acting in the exercise of his or her official duties, in both cases, in relation to the business of the Partnership or the Investment Entities.

7.1Voluntary Withdrawal. Except as otherwise provided in Article 8, the General Partner shall not have the right to retire or withdraw voluntarily from the Partnership, and any withdrawal in violation hereof shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the IPT Limited Partner shall have the right to appoint a substitute general partner which is an Affiliate of the IPT Limited Partner, which shall be admitted immediately prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner and shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution. Prior to any such voluntary withdrawal from the Partnership and appointment of a substitute general partner, the General Partner shall give the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner notice of its intention to withdraw at least ninety
(90) days in advance of such withdrawal.

29


to be the general partner of the Partnership and its Interest shall terminate; provided, however, that such termination shall not affect any rights or liabilities of the General Partner which matured prior to such event, or the value, if any, at the time of such event of the Interest of the General Partner.

7.3Liability of Withdrawn General Partner. If the General Partner shall cease to be general partner of the Partnership, it shall be and remain liable for all obligations and liabilities incurred by it as general partner prior to the time such withdrawal shall have become effective, but it shall be free of any obligation or liability incurred on account of the activities of the Partnership from and after the time such withdrawal shall have become effective; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve the General Partner from any liability arising from any withdrawal  from the Partnership in violation of this Agreement.

7.4Removal of General Partner for Cause. The Partners have set forth certain terms relating to the Removal of the General Partner in Exhibit M, which is incorporated by reference  and attached hereto; all references herein to Section 7.4 shall be referred to Exhibit M.

ARTICLE 8

TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

8.1 Assignments.

(a)Restriction of Assignments. No Partner shall, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, transfer by gift, exchange or otherwise dispose of or encumber its Interests by operation of law or otherwise (all of the foregoing being referred to hereinafter as a “Transfer”, but excluding from the definition of Transfer any IPT REIT Listing Transaction), except in accordance with this Section 8.1. Any assignment and the rights of the assignee with respect to the assigned Interest in connection with a Transfer permitted by this Agreement shall be subject to Section 8.2. Any Transfer made in contravention of this Agreement shall be null and void and the transferee shall receive no right, title or interest in or to any Interests as a result of such Transfer made in violation of this Agreement. In addition, any Transfer otherwise permitted by this Agreement shall be null and void unless (i) the permitted transferee (the “Transferee”) agrees to adopt and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and other relevant documents as if the Transferee had been an original party hereto and (ii) the Transfer would not result in any violation of the ownership limitations set forth in the organizational documents of each Investment Entity intended to preserve the qualification of such Investment Entity as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code. The parties acknowledge that a transfer or issuance of any interests in IPT, IPT HoldCo, IPT OpCo, IPT Advisors Group, or IPT Advisors shall not constitute a Transfer for the purposes of this Agreement; provided, that such a transfer may still constitute an IPT Change of Control pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(vi).

(b)Permitted Assignments. Subject to the General Partner’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.2(e), (x) at any time, each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to an Affiliate of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or (y) from and after the date on which Stabilization has been obtained in respect of the Partnership’s last acquired Development Investment (the “Trigger Date”), but subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), a Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to any Unrelated Third Party; provided, however, that any Transfer shall be subject, in all events, to the following limitations:

(i) no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal

30


counsel to the Partnership, such assignment would require filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any Federal or state securities or Blue Sky laws (including any investment suitability standards) or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Interests;

(ii)no Transfer on any date of an Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would be effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code;

(iii)no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it likely would cause any Investment Entity to no longer qualify as a real estate investment trust or would subject any Investment Entity to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code;

(iv)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is an Accredited Investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, as certified to the satisfaction of the Partnership;

(v)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is (A) a real estate investment trust, bank, saving and loan association, investment bank, insurance company, trust company, commercial credit corporation, pension plan, pension fund or pension advisory firm, mutual fund, government entity or plan, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause (A) satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (B) an investment company, money management firm or “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause (B) satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (C) an institution substantially similar to any of the Persons described in clause (A) or (B) above that satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, or (D) an investment fund, limited liability company, limited partnership or general partnership where either (I) a nationally-recognized manager of investment funds that (x) invests in debt or equity interests relating to commercial real estate, (y) invests through a fund with committed capital of at least

$1,000,000,000, and (z) is not the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding or (II) an entity that is otherwise a Qualified Institutional Transferee under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above acts as the general partner, managing member or fund manager and at least fifty percent (50%) of the equity interests in such investment vehicle are owned, directly or indirectly, by one or more Persons that are otherwise Qualified Institutional Transferees under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above (each of the foregoing, a “Qualified Institutional Transferee”);

(vi)no Transfer of any Interest held by the IPT Limited Partner may be made to a Transferee unless the General Partner concurrently Transfers its Interest to such Transferee (or to such Transferee’s Affiliate or designee); and

(vii)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a governmental or sovereign entity of British Columbia.

As used herein, “Eligibility Requirements” shall mean with respect to any Person, that (x) such Person has total assets (in name, under management or advisement and/or pursuant to undrawn, binding, irrevocable capital commitments) in excess of $1,000,000,000 and (except with respect to a pension advisory firm, registered investment advisor or asset manager) capital/statutory surplus,

In addition, subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), at any time following the Trigger Date, upon receipt of prior written approval thereof by the BCIMC Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, that it shall be deemed reasonable to take into consideration factors other than financial capability), the General Partner may, on its own behalf and on behalf of the IPT Limited Partner, Transfer all of the Interests held by the General Partner and the IPT Limited Partner in the Partnership to a Qualified Institutional Transferee, in which event the provisions of Article 7 shall apply governing substitution of the General Partner and transition of its duties and responsibilities to a substitute general partner of the Partnership.

(c)Rights of First Opportunity.

(i)If any Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) should desire  to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner or a Transfer pursuant to Section 8.1(e), such Partner (the “Offering Partner”) first shall submit to all of the other Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) (the “Offeree Partners”) a binding written offer (the “Offer”) to sell such Interest to the Offeree Partners; provided, that a copy of any Offer shall also be delivered to the Special Limited Partner.  The Offer shall include the price of the Interest (the “Offer Price”) and  any other terms of the proposed Transfer and shall continue to be a binding offer to sell until the earlier of (i) the date the Offer is expressly rejected by all the Offeree Partners or (ii) the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Offer by the Offeree Partners (the “Offer Period”). If the Offeree Partner(s) desire to accept the Offer, the Offeree Partner(s) shall notify the Offering Partner in writing prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, which notice shall be irrevocable (a “ROFO Acceptance Notice”). If more than one Offeree Partner shall  have  accepted the Offer within the Offer Period, then the Interests shall be allocated among such Offeree Partners as they may agree or, if they fail to agree, then in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase. As used herein, “Allocable Share” shall mean with respect to any Partner, a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is such Partner’s Percentage Interest and (y) the denominator of which is the sum of the applicable Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests.

(ii)Closing.

(A) Closing Date. The closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall  be held on the date mutually selected by the Offeree Partner(s) that is no later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the ROFO Acceptance Notice (the “Closing Period”). The  closing shall be completed through a customary closing escrow, and the Offer Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds.  The closing of the sale  of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be on an “as is” and “where is” basis with no representations or warranties other than a representation from the Offering Partner that (A) it owns the Interest being

32


transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances other than permitted liens, claims or encumbrances that were deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or an Investment Entity, (B) it has full right and authority to sell such Interest and that the sale has been duly authorized, (C) the assignment document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, (D) the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Offering Partner is a party, or any order, judgment, or decree applicable to the Offering Partner and (E) no consent, approval, or authorization of or designation, declaration, or filing with any governmental authority or other Person is required on the part of the Offering Partner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or, if required, has been obtained (clauses (A) - (E), the “Required Representations”).

(B) Required Documents. Prior to or at the closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner shall supply to the Offeree Partner(s) all documents customarily required (or reasonably required by the Offeree Partner(s)) to make a good and sufficient conveyance of such Interest to the Offeree Partner(s), which documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.

(C) Conditions Precedent to Closing. The obligation of the  Offeree Partner(s) to pay the purchase price in connection with a sale of Interests pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be conditioned upon the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, other than permitted liens, claims and encumbrances that were waived by the Offeree Partner(s) and deducted in determining  the applicable price of the Interest and permitted liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities. This condition is for the sole benefit of the Offeree Partner(s) and may be waived by the Offeree Partner(s) in whole or in part in each of their sole discretion.

(D) Brokerage. No brokerage fees or commissions shall be  payable by the Partnership in connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), and each Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any such claims made based upon the actions of such Partner, including any fees and expenses in defending any such claims.

33


(iii) In connection with any sale made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c):

(A) the Offeree Partner(s) shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by purchasers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction where the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);

(B) the Offering Partner shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by sellers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);

(C) the Offering Partner and the Offeree Partner(s) each shall pay its own legal fees; and

(D) the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall adjust the purchase price to reflect all adjustments customarily made in connection with the sale of companies that own and operate real estate in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include the  proration and apportionment of any revenues and expenses of the Investments).

In the event of a dispute with respect to any of the adjustments and prorations to be made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(iii), each of the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall submit to an arbitration pursuant to Section 9.4 of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall be limited  to awarding only one or the other of the two adjustment proposals submitted. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.

(iv)Within three (3) Business Days after the Offering Partner’s receipt of a ROFO Acceptance Notice, the Offeree Partner(s) shall deposit in immediately available funds to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the price of the offered Interest (the “Deposit”). The Deposit shall be applied against the Offer Price at closing and shall be nonrefundable to the Offeree Partner(s) (except in the event of a material default of the Offering Partner in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii)).

(v)At the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partner(s) have accepted the Offer, the Offering Partner may Transfer the Interest (in whole, but not in part) subject to the Offer to any Transferee (but subject to the Offeree Partner(s)’ continuing rights to participate in a Tag Along Transfer) for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Offer Period. If no such sale is made by the Offering Partner within such one hundred and twenty (120) day period, the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.1(c) thereafter shall continue to apply to the offered Interest, and no Interests thereafter shall be subject to a Transfer by the Offering Partner without again first complying with all the provisions of this Agreement.

34


(vi)Termination of Obligations. Upon the effective date of any transfer of an Interest pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such transferred Interest, except as to indemnity rights of such Partner under this Agreement attributable to acts or events occurring prior to the effective date of such transfer and except for liabilities and obligations of such Partner arising out of such Partner’s breach of this Agreement.

(vii)Offeree Partner(s) Failure to Close Offer. If the  Offeree  Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offeree Partner(s) (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offeree Partner(s) shall be in material default hereunder and the Offering Partner shall have the right to retain the Deposit and the Offeree Partner(s) shall reimburse the Offering Partner for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offering Partner in connection with the exercise of the Offer. Thereafter, the Offering Partner (1) may pursue any other sale of its Interest to an Unrelated Third Party for a cash price and such other terms and conditions as are determined by the Offering Partner in its sole discretion (without regard to the Offer Price) for an unrestricted period and without any obligation to give any notices of such sale (including any Offer, it being agreed that this Section 8.1(c) shall no longer be applicable to such sale) or (2) may elect to purchase the Interests of the Offeree Partner(s) at the Offer Price. Further, thereafter, the Offeree Partner(s) shall not under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).

(viii)Offering Partner Failure to Close Offer. If the Offeree Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offering Partner (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offering Partner shall be in material default hereunder and the Offeree Partner(s) shall have the right to either (1) seek specific performance from the Offering Partner in respect of such sale or (2) elect not to close, in which event the Offering Partner shall return the Deposit to the Offeree Partner(s), the Offering Partner shall pay to the Offeree Partner(s) an amount equal to the Deposit, and the Offering Partner shall reimburse the Offeree Partner(s) for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offeree Partner(s) in connection with exercising the relevant Offer. Further, thereafter, the Offering Partner shall not under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).

(ix)Release of Offering Partner. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, it shall be a requirement of any offer and the closing of any acquisition of an Interest pursuant to an Offer to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a release of the Offering Partner and the Offering Partner’s Affiliates from any personal liability arising out of any and all written documents (e.g., a guaranty) with respect to any and all Partnership or Investment Entity indebtedness or obligations, including without limitation, all loans secured by any Investment (and in the event that such release is not possible in spite of commercially reasonable efforts, a creditworthy entity reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner shall indemnify  the Offering Partner and its Affiliates for any claims against the Offering Partner under any such written documents on such terms and conditions to be agreed to by

35


the Offering Partner in its reasonable discretion until such indebtedness or obligations are released).

(d)Tag-Along Right. Subject to the foregoing, after the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partners have accepted the Offer and the Offering Partner should desire to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) to a Transferee, other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner, if the Offering Partner wishes to Transfer its Interest to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Offering Partner) (a “Tag Along Transfer”), the Offering Partner shall comply with the requirements of this Section 8.1(d).

(i)Prior to undertaking a Tag Along Transfer, the Offering Partner shall provide written notice to the Offeree Partners and the Special Limited Partner (the “Tag Along Notice”), which notice shall set forth (A) all of the material terms and conditions, including consideration pursuant to which it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer (the “Tag Along Offer Terms”) and (B) the identity of, and information concerning, the Person (the “Tag Along Purchaser”) to whom it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer.

(ii)Within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of an effective Tag Along Notice, each Offeree Partner shall give written notice to the Offering Partner that (A) such Offeree Partner elects to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser on the Tag Along Offer Terms (the “Tag Along Option”) or (B) such Offeree Partner elects not to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser (the “Non-Transfer Option”). An Offeree Partner shall be conclusively deemed to have elected the Non- Transfer Option if it fails to give written notice of its election of either of the above- described options within such ten (10) Business Day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tag Along Notice is delivered simultaneously with or within twenty
(20)days after an Offer is distributed to the Partners pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the time periods for notices and responses under Section 8.1(c) shall govern, as applicable.

(iii)If an Offeree Partner elects or is deemed to have elected the Non- Transfer Option, the Offering Partner shall be permitted to make the Tag Along Transfer without such Offeree Partner, so long as such Tag Along Transfer takes place within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the Tag Along Notice and is otherwise in accordance with Section 8.1.

(iv)If an Offeree Partner elects the Tag Along Option, the Offering Partner shall not make the Tag Along Transfer to the Tag Along Purchaser unless such Tag Along Purchaser acquires, simultaneously with its acquisition of the Offering Partner’s Interest, the Interest of such Offeree Partner at a purchase price equal to

(i) the purchase price for the Offering Partner’s Interest divided by the Offering Partner’s Percentage Interest multiplied by (ii) the Offeree Partner’s Percentage Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate reasonable and customary expenses of the Partners incurred in connection with the transfer of their Interests (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any brokerage fees) shall be paid (or reimbursed) out of the aggregate purchase price  paid to the transferring Partners.

(v) If an Offeree Partner shall exercise the Tag Along Option, such Offeree Partner shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause its Interest to be transferred to the Tag Along Purchaser, such actions to include, without limitation, executing a contract of sale if requested to do so by the Tag Along Purchaser (which

36


contract shall be commercially reasonable and no more onerous to such Offeree Partner than the contract of sale executed by the Offering Partner) and complying with the terms thereof.

(e)IPT Sell-Down. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in  this  Agreement, the IPT Limited Partner may Transfer a portion of its Interest at any time (the “IPT Sell-Down”) to one real estate investor approved in writing by the BCIMC Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) (the “Sell-Down Transferee”); provided, that the IPT Limited Partner shall maintain at least a ten percent (10%) Percentage Interest in the Partnership immediately following any such IPT Sell-Down.

(f)Successors to a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner. If a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner becomes bankrupt, the trustee or receiver of the estate, shall have all of the rights of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, solely for the purpose of settling or managing the estate and such power as such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, possessed to assign all or any part of the Interest and to join with the assignee thereof in satisfying conditions precedent to such assignee becoming a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable. The bankruptcy of a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner in and of itself shall not dissolve the Partnership or cause any successor to such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, to become a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable, of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner.

(g)Recognition of Assignment. The Partnership will not recognize for any purpose any assignment of any Interest unless (i) there shall have been filed with the Partnership a duly executed and acknowledged counterpart of the instrument making such assignment signed by both the assignor and the assignee and such instrument evidences, inter alia, the written acceptance by the assignee of all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and represents that such assignment was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations (including investment suitability standards) and (ii) the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) has determined  that such an assignment is permitted under this Article 8. Irrespective of whether or not any successor to a Partner or a purported assignee of a Partner’s Interest hereunder provides the aforesaid instruments, any such Person shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. As a condition to any voluntary assignment of an Interest, the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) may require that the assignor or the assignee of the Interest or their respective representatives provide to the Partnership information that is reasonably requested by counsel to the Partnership to enable such counsel to determine that such assignment is not prohibited by this Article 8.

(h)Continued Obligations. In no event shall a permitted Transfer be deemed to relieve the Partners who transfer their Interests from their obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, including, without limitation, their obligations with respect to Capital Contributions, except obligations arising after the permitted Transferee becomes a substituted Partner in accordance with Section 8.2.

8.2 Admission of Assignees as Substituted Partners.

(a)Requirements for Admission. No assignee of a Partner’s Interest, whether or not such assignment is permitted under Section 8.1, shall be entitled to become a substituted Partner unless:

(i)the assignee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by and shall have accepted, adopted and approved in writing all of the terms and provisions of this

37


Agreement, as the same may have been amended, and executed a power of attorney similar to the power of attorney granted in this Agreement; and

(ii)the assignee shall pay or obligate itself to pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with his admission as a substituted Partner.

(b)Effect of Assignment. If a Partner assigns all of its Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8, it shall cease to be a partner of the Partnership as of the date that such assignment is given effect by the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Article

8. A purported assignment of an Interest not in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8 shall not be given effect for any purpose.

(c)Rights of Assignee. Any Person who is a permitted assignee of any of the Interest of a Partner in accordance with the terms of this Article 8, but who does not become a substituted Partner shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partner interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share of net profits, gain, net losses, loss and any specially allocated items attributable to the Interests assigned to such Person, but shall not be deemed to be the owner of an Interest for any other purpose under this Agreement. In the event any such Person desires to make a further assignment of any such Interests, such Person shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 8 to the same extent and in the same manner as a Partner.

(d)Notification of Assignment. If a Partner assigns or exchanges all or any portion of its Interest, it must notify the Partnership of such assignment or exchange. Such notification must be in writing and must be given within fifteen (15) days after the assignment or exchange. Such notification must include the names and addresses of the transferor and transferee, the taxpayer identification numbers of the transferor and the transferee, the date of the assignment or exchange and any other information required by the Partnership.

ARTICLE 9

BUY-SELL; FORCED SALE; DISPUTE RESOLUTION

9.1 Buy-Sell.

(a) Process.

(i)At any time after the Trigger Date, any Limited Partner (which in the case of the IPT Limited Partner, shall be deemed to include the General Partner for all purposes of this Article 9) that is not a Defaulting Partner (the “Triggering Partner”) may initiate the procedures of this Section 9.1 (the “Buy-Sell”) by  delivery of a written notice (a “Buy-Sell Notice”) to the other Limited Partners (the “Responding Partners”) and the Special Limited Partner stating that the Triggering Partner desires to initiate the Buy-Sell. In the event that more than one Limited Partner issues a Buy-Sell Notice in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.1, the Buy-Sell Notice complying with this Section 9.1(a) that is issued first (i.e.,  the Buy-Sell Notice received by the other applicable Limited Partners first as determined by the date and time of receipt) shall be effective, and the other Buy-Sell Notice(s) shall be deemed not to have been issued (and therefore be ineffective).

(ii)The Buy-Sell Notice shall set forth the gross purchase price for the

38


Portfolio proposed by the Triggering Partner (the “Offered Price”). Until the date which is ninety (90) days after receipt of an Buy-Sell Notice (the “Response Period”), the Responding Partners may deliver a written notice which shall be irrevocable to the Triggering Partner after electing either to (A) accept the offer to sell its Interest (an “Acceptance Notice”) to the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Responding Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to sell, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Selling Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”) or (B) elect to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Triggering Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to buy, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Purchasing Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”);  provided, that if one Responding Partner elects to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner and the other Responding Partner elects to sell its Interest to the Triggering Partner, the Responding Partner electing to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall also be required to buy the Interest of the other Responding Partner at the price applicable to such Responding Partner’s Interest (which shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”). A failure to respond during the Response Period shall be deemed to constitute an election to sell. If more than one Purchasing Partner shall have elected to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner, then the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall be allocated among such Purchasing Partners in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if IPT has commenced a bona fide, good faith IPT REIT Listing Transaction, the IPT Partners may, one-time only, delay (up to no more than ninety (90) days) any Buy-Sell triggered by any Limited Partner; provided, however, if IPT has filed an offering document with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), such ninety (90)-day period may be extended for up to three (3) additional separate one (1)-month periods as long as IPT is diligently responding to comments from the SEC at the time of each such extension.

(b)Carried Interest Amounts. In connection with a Buy-Sell, if the Carried Interest Amounts have not been previously paid or otherwise satisfied in accordance with Section 5.3, the Partnership shall (x) pay the General Partner Carried Interest Amount to the General Partner and (y) effect the Redemption and pay the Redemption Price to the Special Limited Partner, in each case, following the procedures set forth in Section 5.3, except that the date of the closing of the Buy-Sell shall be substituted for the Calculation Date, an amount equal to the Offered Price shall be substituted for the Appraised Value and the General Partner Carried Interest Amount and the Redemption Price shall be paid in cash to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, at the closing of the Buy-Sell.

ARTICLE 2.

PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES

2.1Purposes. The purposes of the Partnership are to acquire, entitle, develop, own, use, operate, manage, finance, sell, lease, sublease, exchange or otherwise dispose of selected

3


industrial- type properties in the United States (indirectly, through the Investment Entities) and engage in any other activities related or incidental thereto, in each case in accordance with this Agreement.

2.2Overview. The Partners have set forth the objectives of the Partnership in Exhibit I, which is incorporated by reference and attached hereto; all references herein to Section 2.2 shall be referred to Exhibit I.

2.3Financing. The Partnership will generally seek: (a) short-term, floating and fixed- rate financing with an Investment loan-to-value ratio of up to fifty-five percent (55%) of the total cost for each Development Investment and each Value-Add Investment prior to Stabilization of such Development Investment or Value-Add Investment, which financing shall be fully prepayable through and at Stabilization of such Development Investment or Value-Add Investment (the “Pre-Stabilization Leverage Target”); (b) fixed-rate, cross-collateralized or single asset financing with an Investment loan-to-value ratio of up to fifty-five percent (55%) of the total value for each Core Investment, each Value-Add Investment and each Development Investment following Stabilization of such Value-Add Investment or Development Investment, which financing shall be subject to customary prepayment, release and substitution provisions (the “Post-Stabilization Leverage Target”); and/or (c) Partnership-level financing which, together with all other financing of the Partnership and the Investment Entities, does not exceed a Portfolio loan-to-value ratio of fifty-five percent (55%), which may be unsecured or which may include a secured revolving credit facility in the name of the Partnership, which may be cross- collateralized by all of the Properties owned by the Investment Entities (the “Partnership Leverage Target” and, together with the Pre-Stabilization Leverage Target and the Post- Stabilization Leverage Target, the “Leverage Targets”); in each case, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such financing is subject to the Approval of the Executive Committee to the extent required by Section 6.2 of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, “Stabilization” shall mean, with respect to any Investment, the first date on which (A) seventy-five percent (75%) of the rentable space of such Investment has been leased to tenants under leases for which the lease commencement date has occurred, such tenants have taken occupancy of their premises and have commenced base rent payments, and (B) the weighted average lease term of the leases with respect to such Investment is greater than two (2) years (assuming, in the determination of the weighted average lease term, that any existing tenant termination right is exercised as of the first date such termination would be effective, and no existing tenant option to extend its lease term is exercised). For the avoidance of doubt, the test for Stabilization need only be met once for each Investment to be deemed to have achieved Stabilization for the remainder of the Term. Consistent with Section 2.2(i), except as otherwise approved by the QuadReal Limited Partner, at no time shall any financing result in or be permitted where the QuadReal Limited Partner is required to provide security for such financing and/or provide any collateral, covenants, guarantees, security or assignments in respect thereof or otherwise incur any debt obligation.

ARTICLE 3.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

3.1Composition. The Partnership shall have an executive committee of the Partnership (the Executive Committee”) selected by the Partners as provided herein. At all

4


times during the Term, the Executive Committee shall be comprised of two (2) members (each member, a “Representative”) consisting of: (a) one (1) Representative appointed by the IPT Limited Partner (the “IPT Representative”); and (b) one (1) Representative appointed by QuadReal US (the “QuadReal Representative”); provided that, following an IPT Sell-Down, the Executive Committee shall be comprised of three (3) members consisting of: (a) the IPT Representative; (b) the QuadReal Representative; and (c) one (1) Representative appointed by the Sell-Down Transferee. As of the date hereof, the Representatives shall be: (i) either Dwight Merriman or Tom McGonagle, appointed by the IPT Limited Partner; and (ii) Timothy Works, appointed by QuadReal US. For purposes of clarity, (i) with respect to the QuadReal Representative, the consent of either Timothy Works or any additional representative appointed by QuadReal US pursuant to this Section 3.1 with respect to any matter requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee hereunder shall be deemed to be the consent of the QuadReal Representative with respect to such matter and any Partner’s or Representative’s obligation to provide notice to or solicit the consent of the QuadReal Representative hereunder shall be deemed satisfied to the extent such Partner or Representative provides notice to or solicits the consent of either Timothy Works or any additional representative appointed by QuadReal US pursuant to this Section 3.1, and (ii) with respect to the IPT Representative, the consent of either Dwight Merriman, Tom McGonagle or any additional representative appointed by the IPT Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 3.1 with respect to any matter requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee hereunder shall be deemed to be the consent of the IPT Representative with respect to such matter and any Partner’s or Representative’s obligation to provide notice to or solicit the consent of the IPT Representative hereunder shall be deemed satisfied to the extent such Partner or Representative provides notice to or solicits the consent of either Dwight Merriman, Tom McGonagle or any additional representative appointed by the IPT Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 3.1. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Representative shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including the Partners’ respective interests, and shall have no fiduciary duty or other duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of, or factors affecting, any other Person. In the event of the resignation or death of a Representative, the Partner that so appointed such Representative shall designate a successor to such Representative within thirty (30) days after such resignation or death by written notice to all of the Partners. Any Partner also shall have the right to replace or supplement the list of individuals appointed to serve as its Representative by giving written notice of the removal, replacement or supplement of such Representative to all of the Partners, and, in the case of removal of its last Representative, together with its appointment of a replacement therefor. For the avoidance of doubt, a Partner may appoint more than one individual to serve as its Representative, but only one such individual may act as the Representative of such Partner with respect to any particular matter before the Executive Committee. Representatives shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership for their reasonable travel expenses and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their attendance at meetings of the Executive Committee (provided, however, that with respect to any particular meeting of the Executive Committee, the Partnership shall only be obligated to reimburse the expenses of one (1) individual for the QuadReal Representative and one (1) individual for the IPT Representative in connection with such meeting), but shall not be entitled to any fees, remuneration or other reimbursements from the Partnership or any of the Partners. Each Representative shall be bound by Section 12.11 of this Agreement.

3.2Role of Executive Committee. Subject to Section 4.4(e), the unanimous consent  of the Representatives constituting a quorum (the “Approval of the Executive Committee” or “Approval”, and any matter upon receiving the Approval of the Executive Committee, “Approved”) shall be required with respect to any Proposed Investment, all Major Decisions, as more specifically set forth in Section 6.2, and such other matters as are prescribed herein as requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee; provided, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, that the General Partner shall be entitled to take any action that the General Partner determines to be reasonably necessary to prevent imminent and material damage or to prevent impending health, life or safety emergencies without the Approval of the Executive Committee. Any Major Decision requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee that is proposed by any Representative but is not Approved or deemed Approved shall constitute a “Deadlock Event”.

3.3 Meetings.

(a)General. Any Executive Committee meetings held in person shall be held in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area except as otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee (either in advance of or at such meeting); provided, however, in the case of meetings held by telephone conference or similar means pursuant to Section 3.3(e), no Representative need be in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area.

(b)Nature of Meetings. The General Partner shall give written notice to each Representative of each meeting, including the time, place and purpose of such meeting. Notice  of each such meeting shall be sent by overnight delivery, personal delivery, or electronic communication to each Limited Partner and each Representative, addressed to him or her at the last address provided by the Representative or Limited Partner to the General Partner for such purpose, at least five (5) “Business Days” (which shall mean days upon which banks in New York, New York and Vancouver, Canada are open for normal business) before the day on which such meeting is to be held, except as otherwise provided herein. Such notice need not be given  to any Representative who in fact attends such meeting. A written waiver of notice delivered to the General Partner, whether before or after the time of the meeting stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Any Limited Partner with representation on the Executive Committee shall also have the right to call a meeting of the Executive Committee to discuss a Major Decision, by giving notice of such meeting to each Representative in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3 that apply to the General Partner.

(c)Quorum. Except as set forth below, at all meetings of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is to be considered, the presence of the QuadReal Representative and the IPT Representative shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. At any duly called meeting of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is  to be considered, if a quorum shall not be present solely as a result of the failure of any Representative to attend or as a result of the failure of any Partner to appoint its Representative, after the death, removal or resignation of its Representative, the Partner that called such meeting may call a second meeting to consider such matter on twenty-four (24) hours’ notice and if the Representative that was not present fails to attend such second meeting or is not appointed, such meeting may nevertheless take place and the Representative that was not present shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision proposed at such subsequently held meeting.

6


(d)Action Without a Meeting. Any action of the Executive Committee may be taken without a meeting of the Executive Committee, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing or by electronic transmission (including email confirmation or approval), setting forth the action to be so taken, shall be provided by all of the Representatives. Any Representative shall be entitled to require the General Partner to circulate a written consent to the Executive Committee in lieu of meeting. In the event the General Partner promptly delivers any written consent requested by any Representative in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and such requesting Representative fails to return such written consent within the time periods prescribed for any such meeting as set forth above, such requesting Representative shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision described in such written consent.

(e)Telephone Participation. Any Representative may participate in any meeting of the Executive Committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting may talk with and hear one another.

(f)Rules. The Executive Committee may adopt by Approval such other rules of procedure governing its meetings, communications and actions as it deems necessary, appropriate or helpful.

By the date specified by  the General Partner (or, to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 4.3(d), the QuadReal Limited Partner) in the applicable Capital Call Notice, each Partner shall be required to fund its Capital Contributions with respect thereto as required by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, whenever the Limited Partners are required to fund Capital Contributions pro rata based on their respective Percentage Interests, the BCIG Limited Partner shall not be obligated to fund any portion of its share of such Capital Contribution in excess of its unfunded Capital Commitment, and the IPT Limited Partner shall fund such excess Capital Contribution. In the event that the IPT Limited Partner funds such excess Capital Contribution, IPT Limited Partner shall be treated for all purposes as having made such Capital Contribution for its own account, and the Percentage Interests, Capital Commitments and Capital Contributions of the IPT Limited Partner and the BCIG Limited Partner set forth on Schedule 1 shall be updated accordingly.

(g)IPT Limited Partner Co-Investment Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in lieu of funding any Capital Contributions (or any portion thereof) pursuant to this Section 4.3, the IPT Limited Partner shall have the right to designate the BCIG Limited Partner or an Affiliate of the BCIG Limited Partner, subject to the consent of the BCIG Limited Partner or such Affiliate, to fund such Capital Contributions (or  any portion thereof) on its behalf. In any such event, (i) each such Affiliate of the BCIG Limited Partner that is not a Limited Partner shall be admitted as a Limited Partner of the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (each admitted Affiliate of the BCIG Limited Partner, a “BCIG Partner”, and together with the BCIG Limited Partner, the “BCIG Partners”), (ii) the Percentage Interests, Capital Commitments and Capital Contributions of the IPT Limited Partner and the BCIG Limited Partners set forth on Schedule 1 shall be updated accordingly, and (iii) any such newly admitted BCIG Partner shall not have the right to appoint a Representative to the Executive Committee.

4.4 Treatment of Defaulting Partner.

(a)Default. If any Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, within the period set forth in the applicable Capital Call Notice, such Partner shall be considered a “Defaulting Partner.” A Partner that has become a Defaulting Partner shall not be entitled to any additional period in which to cure the default and pay its required Capital Contribution. The portion of such Capital Contribution that such Defaulting Partner was  required to make and did not actually fund shall be referred to herein as the “Unfunded Amount.”

(b)Remedies Generally. If, and to the extent, a Defaulting Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, each of the other Partners that has fully funded its required Capital Contribution that is not an Affiliate of the Defaulting Partner, but excluding the BCIG Partners in the event one of the IPT Partners is the Defaulting Partner (each, a “Contributing Partner”), shall have the right, without obligation, either to:

12


(i)Require the General Partner (or the QuadReal Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) to (and the General Partner (or the QuadReal Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) shall) revoke or revise the Capital Call Notice, whereupon any Capital Contributions paid by the Contributing Partner pursuant to such Capital Call Notice shall be returned to it within ten (10) Business Days following such Partner’s election to revoke or revise the Capital Call Notice and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as never having been made (and no default shall be deemed to have occurred), in which event the Executive Committee shall reconsider the needs of the Partnership for additional capital and the General Partner may issue a new Capital Call Notice following such reconsideration with the Approval of the Executive Committee.

(ii)In addition to making its own Capital Contribution then due, fund the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, on the terms set forth below in this Section 4.4(b)(ii). Any Unfunded Amount contributed to the Partnership by the Contributing Partner shall be deemed to be senior preferred equity (“Senior Preferred Equity Contributions”) and shall be entitled to an amount equal to a cumulative per annum return of twenty percent (20%), compounded annually to the extent not paid currently, on each dollar of a Contributing Partner’s Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, from the first day that such dollar is contributed to the Partnership pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until the date that such dollar of the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution is returned to that Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 5.2 (the “Senior Preferred Return”). In the event a Contributing Partner elects to fund the Unfunded Amount pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), such Contributing Partner shall notify the other Partners in writing upon such election. A Defaulting Partner may cause the Partnership to repay the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, together with any accrued Senior Preferred Return, at any time, by contributing such amounts to the Partnership and directing the General Partner to distribute such amounts to the Contributing Partner(s) in accordance with Section 5.2(a)(i) and Section 5.2(a)(ii).

(iii)In addition to the foregoing, make an additional Capital Contribution to the Partnership equal to the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, whereupon (i) the Contributing Partner(s) shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution for all purposes hereunder (including in respect of Capital Accounts, Carried Interest Distributions and calculations under Section 5.3) in an amount equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the amount funded and (ii) the Percentage Interests of each Partner shall be recalculated at such time pursuant to Section 4.2 such that the dilution of the deemed Capital Contribution reduces only the Percentage Interest of the Defaulting Partner and increases only the Percentage Interest(s) of the

13


Contributing Partner(s). Further, in such event when any IPT Partner is the Defaulting Partner and to the extent such IPT Partner fails to cure the applicable default within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of written notice from the QuadReal Limited Partner, the QuadReal Limited Partner shall have the right to declare by written notice to the General Partner that each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(y), 5.2(a)(v)(z), 5.2(a)(vi)(y) and 5.2(a)(vi)(z) shall be decreased to an amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to the product of (A) such percentage and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests after adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii) and the denominator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests prior to adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), and following the adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(x) and 5.2(a)(vi)(x) shall be increased by a corresponding amount so that the total of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v) and 5.2(a)(vi) is always one hundred percent (100%).

For purposes of this Section 4.4(b), if more than one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution pursuant to clause (ii) above and/or to make an additional Capital Contribution pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Contributing Partners will fund their pro rata share, based on relative Percentage Interests, of such Senior Preferred Equity Contribution and/or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in an aggregate collective amount equal to the Unfunded Amount. If only one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or an additional Capital Contribution, the electing Contributing Partner shall fund the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in the entire amount of the Unfunded Amount.

(c)Default Date and Default Period. Subject to Section 4.4(b)(i), the day that a Partner becomes a Defaulting Partner shall be referred to herein as the “Default Date”. If any of the Contributing Partners elect the remedy set forth in Section 4.4(b)(ii), the Defaulting Partner shall be deemed to have cured the default at such time as the Contributing Partner(s) (or its Affiliate, as applicable) actually receive full repayment of their Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon (the “Cure Date” being the date on which the Contributing Partner receives full repayment of the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon, and the period from the Default Date until the Cure Date (if applicable), the “Default Period”). In addition to the specific remedies set forth in this Section 4.4, the Contributing Partner(s) shall have all rights and remedies available at law and in equity arising from a Defaulting Partner’s failure to contribute its Unfunded Amount.

(d)Termination of Rights. The following rights of a Defaulting Partner under this Agreement shall terminate on the Default Date and shall only be reinstated on the Cure Date, if applicable:

(i)With respect to any Defaulting Partner, (A) the right of first opportunity in connection with a Transfer by the Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 8.1(c), (B) the right to tag-along to a Transfer by the Contributing Partner

14


pursuant to Section 8.1(d), (C) the right to deliver a Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 9.1 and (D) the right to initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2;

(ii)If each of (x) any QuadReal Limited Partner and (y) the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) is a Defaulting Partner, the General Partner shall have no further obligation to present to the Partnership potential investments pursuant to Section 6.6; and

(iii)If either of the IPT Partners is a Defaulting Partner and the General Partner is an Affiliate of the IPT Limited Partner, the General Partner may be removed for Cause pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(viii); provided, however, removal for such Cause shall be permitted only during the Default Period.

(e)Exclusion from the Executive Committee. During the Default Period for a Defaulting Partner, any Representative appointed by such Defaulting Partner, or by any other Partner that is an Affiliate of such Defaulting Partner, shall no longer be entitled to participate in any way in the affairs of the Executive Committee and shall not be counted toward a quorum.

(f)IPT Limited Partner and BCIG Partner Cure Rights. If either the IPT Limited Partner or a BCIG Limited Partner fails to fund a Capital Contribution (or any portion thereof) within the period required under the applicable Capital Call Notice (a “Failed Contribution”), but the IPT Limited Partner or a BCIG Limited Partner, as applicable, funds its Capital Contribution with respect to the applicable Capital Call Notice, such funding Limited Partner may elect, but shall not be obligated, to fund the non-funding Limited Partner’s Failed Contribution (or any portion thereof) on its behalf at any time during the ten (10) Business Days immediately following the end of the applicable Capital Call Funding Period (the “Cure Period”). For all purposes under this Agreement, and notwithstanding Section 4.4(a) to the contrary, if a funding Limited Partner funds a Failed Contribution within the Cure Period, the non-funding Limited Partner shall not be a Defaulting Partner. If a funding Limited Partner  elects to fund all or any portion of a Failed Contribution within the Cure Period, such funding Limited Partner shall be treated for all purposes as having made such Capital Contribution for its own account, and the Percentage Interests, Capital Commitments and Capital Contributions of the IPT Limited Partner and the BCIG Limited Partner set forth on Schedule 1 shall be updated accordingly.

4.5Capital Accounts. The Capital Contributions of each Partner shall be credited to such Partner’s “Capital Account.” A Partner’s Capital Account also shall be credited with the amount of income and gain of the Partnership allocable to the Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any income and gain exempt from tax), and shall be  debited with (a) such Partner’s share of all Partnership distributions and (b) the amount of losses and deductions allocated to such Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any income and gain exempt from tax). Capital Accounts shall be maintained and adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations and the more detailed rules set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. A Partner shall  be considered to have only one Capital Account. Any permitted transferee (pursuant to the terms hereof) of all or any portion of an Interest shall succeed to the portion of the Capital Account relating to the Interest transferred.

15


4.6No Interest on, or Right to Return of Capital Contributions or Capital Account. No Partner shall be entitled to receive any interest on its Capital Contributions or its outstanding Capital Account balance. Except upon the dissolution and termination of the Partnership to the extent provided herein, or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Partner shall have the right to demand or to receive the return of all or any part of its Capital Contribution or its Capital Account.

4.7Cash Contributions. All Capital Contributions to the Partnership by the Partners shall be in cash denominated in U.S. dollars.

Cash Available for Distribution also may be distributed at such other time or times as the General Partner may decide in anticipation of the quarterly-end determination thereof, and any such distributions shall be subject to quarterly-end adjustment based on the amount of Cash Available for Distribution ultimately determined to be available for distribution with respect to such quarter.

5.7 Withholding.

(a)Requirements. The Partnership shall comply with withholding requirements under United States federal, state and local law and shall remit amounts withheld to, and file required forms with, the applicable jurisdictions. To the extent the Partnership is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Partner (including any taxes arising under Code §§6221 through 6241, as amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions and any similar provision of state or local tax laws (the “Partnership Tax Audit Rules”), the amount withheld shall be treated as a distribution to that Partner in the amount of the withholding. In the event of any claimed over-withholding, provided that the Partnership has used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such withholding requirements, Partners shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction, and not against the Partnership. If the amount withheld or required to be withheld (including under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules) was not withheld from actual distributions, the Partnership may, at its option, (i) require the Partner to reimburse the Partnership for such withholding or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding. Each Partner agrees to furnish the Partnership with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Partnership to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations. Each Partner will indemnify the General Partner and the Partnership against any losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, interest and penalties) related to any withholding obligations with respect to allocations or distributions made to it by the Partnership other than amounts resulting from the Partnership’s failure to timely pay over any amounts withheld or to timely file any returns.

(b)Exemptions. The Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize or eliminate any withholding tax imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts distributable by the Partnership to the Partners, including under Sections 1471 and 1472 of the Code, to the extent permissible pursuant to applicable law. The General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist each Partner to obtain any exemption, exclusion, credit or refund associated with the taxation (including, without limitation, withholding tax) of any amounts distributable to the Partner (“Exemption”) for which the Partnership or the Partner qualifies, in each case at such Partner’s expense. In addition, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist each Partner in obtaining available information for such Partner to make filings, applications or elections to obtain the Exemption at

17


such Partner’s expense. If, and to the extent, reasonably requested in writing by a Partner, and at the expense of the requesting Partner, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filings, applications or elections to be prepared and filed on the Partner’s behalf with respect to Exemptions from withholding or other tax arising out of the Partner’s Interest.

(c)Withholding Notices. The Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) give reasonable notice prior to remitting any withholding tax to any taxing authority on behalf of a Partner, and (ii) give such Partner the reasonable opportunity to provide such applicable forms, information returns or other documentation, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner in its reasonable discretion, to establish an exemption from withholding with respect to the Partner under the laws of the applicable taxing jurisdiction; provided, that such documentation shall be provided to the General Partner no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the date that withholding would otherwise be required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Partnership from withholding on any distributions in respect of a Partner if the General Partner determines in its reasonable discretion that withholding is required under applicable law.

(d) Tax Status of the QuadReal Limited Partner.

(i)Each of QuadReal College, QuadReal Municipal, QuadReal Public Service, QuadReal Teachers, QuadReal WCB and QuadReal Hydro will provide the General Partner with a duly-completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for any available exemption from or reduction in withholding taxes, and will provide the General Partner with a signed affidavit in the form of Exhibit N hereto (the “QFPF Certification”).

(ii)QuadReal WCBAF has informed the General Partner that it is generally exempt from U.S. federal income tax on U.S. source dividends (other than capital gain dividends taxable under Section 897(h)(1) of the Code) and interest by reason of being a company, organization or other arrangement. described in either subsection 3(a) or subsection 3(b) of Article XXI (3) of the income tax treaty between the United States and Canada (the Treaty”).

(iii)QuadReal WCBAF will provide the General Partner with a duly- completed IRS Form W-8EXP and/or IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for such exemption or reduced withholding, as the case may be.

(iv)Under existing law and assuming QuadReal WCBAF provides the IRS forms (and any applicable renewals, updates, or successors to such forms under applicable law) described in the preceding clause (iii) on a timely basis, the General Partner does not intend to withhold from any distribution to QuadReal WCBAF where such distribution is made in respect of QuadReal WCBAF’s distributive share of U.S. source dividends or interest, other than withholding required as a result of the application of Section 897(h)(1) of the Code to any such distributions.

18


(e)For the avoidance of doubt, any taxes, penalties and interest payable under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules by the Partnership or any fiscally transparent entity in which the Partnership owns an interest shall be treated as specifically attributable to the Partners of the Partnership, and the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allocate the burden of (or any diminution in distributable proceeds resulting from) any such taxes, penalties or interest to those Partners to whom such amounts are specifically attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions or otherwise), as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

(iv)take such actions (including, without limitation, amending this Agreement) or decline to take such actions as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion are advisable or necessary, based upon advice of counsel to the Partnership, (A) to preserve the tax status of the Partnership as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes or (B) to conform this Agreement to either (I) the Act, or (II) provisions of the Code or the Treasury Regulations relating to taxation of partners and partnerships and real estate investment trusts, including, without limitation, any changes thereto.

The General Partner shall act in good faith to take all action which may be reasonably necessary or appropriate for the acquisition, development, maintenance, preservation, management and operation of the properties and assets of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and applicable laws and regulations with the skill, care, prudence and diligence that a competent and prudent real estate professional in a similar position would use under similar circumstances, consistent with then prevailing standards of general partners performing similar duties in relation to properties and assets comparable to the properties and assets of the Partnership (all of the foregoing being referred to as the General Partner’s duty of “Due Care”), it being understood and agreed, however, that the General Partner may contract with Unrelated Third Parties (including the Special Limited Partner) or its Affiliates for the direct performance of the general day-to-day management and operational services for the Partnership, certain of the costs of which shall be paid by the General Partner pursuant to Section 6.4(b); provided, that the General Partner shall not be required to perform any other services outside of the scope of this Agreement unless the expense related thereto is included in an Approved Partnership Budget.

If the Executive Committee rejects the draft annual budget for any calendar year that is submitted to it for approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), then not later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such rejection, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), either the same or a revised draft of the annual budget for such year, incorporating any such changes the General Partner elects to make based upon its good faith consideration of any feedback and comments provided on the prior draft annual budget by a Representative to the General Partner (other than changes that are inconsistent with the manner in which GP Fees are computed in accordance with Exhibit D). Upon the Approval of the full draft budget by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 6.2(c), such budget shall become the Approved Partnership Budget for all purposes under this Agreement and shall supersede any prior Approved Partnership Budget; provided, however, if the Representatives are unable to agree on an annual budget, the prior year’s Approved Partnership Budget shall continue in effect (save and except in respect of non-recurring line items), adjusted by uncontrollable costs (such as, insurance, taxes and utilities), inflation and the requirements of tenant leases entered into by the Investment Entities. The failure of the Executive Committee to Approve two

(2) consecutive annual budgets within the time periods set forth in this Section 6.3(b)(i) shall be deemed to be a Deadlock Event.

(ii)The General Partner shall be authorized to make the expenditures and incur the obligations set forth in, and otherwise implement, the then Approved Partnership Budget.

(c)Filings. The General Partner shall take such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to form or qualify the Partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Partnership is doing business or owns property or in which such formation or qualification is necessary in order to protect the limited liability of each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner or in order to continue in effect such formation or qualification. If required by law, the General Partner shall file or cause to be filed for recordation in the office of the appropriate authorities of the State of Delaware, and in the proper office or offices in each other jurisdiction in which the Partnership is formed or qualified, such certificates (including, without limitation, limited partnership and fictitious name certificates) and other documents as are required by the applicable statutes, rules or regulations of any such jurisdiction or as are necessary to reflect the identity of the Partners and the amounts of their respective Capital Contributions.

(d)Partnership Tax Returns. The General Partner shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file on or before the due date (including any extensions thereof) any Federal, state or local tax returns required to be filed by the Partnership.

(e) Appraisals.

(i)The General Partner shall cause a nationally recognized MAI appraiser with experience in appraising the value of real estate having a similar character to and in a similar geographic location as the Investments (a “Qualified Appraiser”) to value (A) each Development Investment within the calendar year following the date of completion of each such Development Investment and annually thereafter, and (B) each Value-Add Investment and Core Investment within the calendar year following the date of the acquisition of each such Value- Add Investment and Core Investment and annually thereafter, in each case at the expense of the Partnership. Following the date that any Carried Interest Distributions are distributed to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner shall cause a Qualified Appraiser to value 25% of the entire Portfolio each calendar quarter, such that each Investment is appraised at least one time per calendar year, in each case at the expense of the Partnership.  The General Partner shall direct the appointed Qualified Appraiser to finalize each such appraisal no later than the last day of the calendar year or calendar quarter,  as applicable, in which such appraisal is being conducted (the “Appraisal Date”), and to reflect an effective date of such valuation as of December 31 of such calendar year or the last day of such applicable calendar quarter, as applicable; provided, that the General Partner shall have no liability with respect to the failure of such Qualified Appraiser to finalize any such appraisal by the Appraisal Date. The General Partner shall deliver to the QuadReal Limited Partner any appraisal commissioned pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(i) upon the written request of the QuadReal Limited Partner.

(ii)In addition, no more than 180 days prior to the Calculation Date, the General Partner shall value the entire Portfolio (the “Portfolio Appraisal”) by either (A) aggregating the values of the last annual appraisals commissioned pursuant to Section 6.3(e)(i) or (B) commissioning a Qualified Appraiser to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) and, in either case, subject to clause (iii) below, such Portfolio Appraisal shall be binding on the Partnership and the Partners absent manifest error or fraud. The Portfolio Appraisal performed pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(ii) shall be deemed to have been performed by the “GP Appraiser”. The Portfolio Appraisal shall be used to determine the Appraised Value of the Portfolio (including, without limitation, the Carried Interest Distributions) in accordance with Section 5.3.

(iii)Within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of the Portfolio Appraisal, the QuadReal Limited Partner shall provide written notice (the “Appraisal Notice”) to the General Partner electing to (x) agree to the Portfolio Appraisal or (y) reject the Portfolio Appraisal. In the event the  QuadReal Limited Partner rejects the Portfolio Appraisal, the QuadReal Limited Partner shall select, approve and appoint a Qualified Appraiser to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal (the “LP Appraiser”) within five (5) Business Days following the General Partner’s receipt of the Appraisal

26


Notice (the “LP Appraiser Appointment Period”) by providing notice to the General Partner of such appointment (the “LP Appraiser Notice”). If the QuadReal Limited Partner fails to appoint the LP Appraiser within the LP Appraiser Appointment Period, the Portfolio Appraisal shall be conclusive on the Partners. If both the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser are appointed, then the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) Qualified Appraiser (the “Independent Appraiser” and, together with the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser, collectively, the “Appraisers”) and give notice thereof to the Partners within ten (10) days following the General Partner’s receipt of the LP Appraiser Notice (the “Independent Appraiser Appointment Period”). If the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser fail to appoint the Independent Appraiser within the Independent Appraiser Appointment Period, any Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint the Independent Appraiser.

(iv)Each of the Appraisers shall promptly fix a time for the completion of the Portfolio Appraisal, which shall not be later than thirty (30) days from the appointment of the Independent Appraiser. The Appraisers shall determine the Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed  Portfolio Appraisal by determining the fair market value of the assets to be appraised (other than cash in Partnership accounts), such being the fairest price estimated in the terms of money which the Partnership could obtain if such assets were sold, for all cash, in the open market allowing a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases such assets with knowledge of the business of the Partnership and such assets. If the Appraisers are not able to agree upon a single Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed  Portfolio Appraisal, each shall render its own Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal. Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as to the Portfolio Value, if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is not more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the values proposed by the Appraisers shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”; provided, that if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the two appraisals closest in value shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”.

(v)If the GP Appraiser, the LP Appraiser and the Independent Appraiser are appointed, the General Partner shall pay for the services of the GP Appraiser, the QuadReal Limited Partner and/or the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) shall pay for the services of the LP Appraiser and the cost of the services of the Independent Appraiser shall be paid by the Partners pro rata in accordance with their Percentage Interests. The costs of the services of the Partnership’s accountants, if applicable, shall be paid by the Partnership.

(vi)As used herein, “Appraised Value” of an asset or assets means, as the context so provides, the value of such asset(s) as determined by appraisal. For any Investment which has been acquired by the Partnership but has not yet been

27


appraised by a Qualified Appraiser, the acquisition and development cost paid by the Partnership for the Partnership’s interest in such Investment shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be its value established pursuant to this Section 6.3(e) until such time as such Investment is appraised in accordance with this Section 6.3.

(f)Limitations on Liability of General Partner. The General Partner shall have no liability hereunder, and shall not be in breach of its obligations hereunder, if the General Partner is unable to take any action or perform any duty which would otherwise be required hereunder to the extent that (i) such inability to act was caused by the action or failure to act of the Limited Partners that are not Affiliates of the General Partner, (ii) such inability to act resulted from a lack of available funds (provided the General Partner has issued Capital Call Notices for such funds in accordance with Article 4), (iii) such action or omission would have been reasonably expected to violate any law, or (iv) such action or omission was based on the advice of reputable counsel or other consultant with knowledge of such matter selected by the General Partner with Due Care.

6.4 Fees; Expenses.

(a)Fees. The Partnership shall pay to the General Partner the fees (the “GP Fees”) as compensation for providing services in managing the activities of the Partnership specifically enumerated in Section 6.3(a) (or where applicable providing such services to the Investment Entities) pursuant to and as and when set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto; provided, however, the General Partner may direct the Partnership to pay directly any of such GP Fees directly to any Unrelated Third Party (including the Special Limited Partner or Affiliate).

(b)General Partner Expenses. Subject to Section 6.4(c), the General Partner shall be responsible for all the overhead expenses of performing the duties as described in Section 6.3(a), including without limitation, compensation for its employees, rent, utilities and other general internal expenses. Each Partner shall bear its own costs of forming the Partnership, including without limitation, legal fees incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation this Agreement and related documents.

(c)Expenses of the Partnership. The Partnership (or the Investment Entities, as applicable) shall bear all expenses in any Fiscal Year (other than those expressly related to the duties of the General Partner for which it receives the GP Fees pursuant to Section 6.4(a) above), including Unrelated Third Party expenses relating to the performance of those duties described in clauses (xii), (xviii) and (xxv) of Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(d), Section 6.3(e), Section 6.8 and expenses associated with any transactions outside the Partnership’s (or the Investment Entities’) general day-to-day operations, such as due diligence and other pursuit costs, any acquisitions, development activities, financing transactions, sales of assets, mergers, acquisitions and the like (such as accounting, engineering, consulting, environmental consulting, entitlement, brokerage, financing, legal costs and expenses), and including, without limitation, construction, repairs, replacements, the preparation of financial statements, property-level audits, annual valuations, tax returns and K-1s and tax compliance activities for the Investment Entities (collectively, “Partnership Expenses”); provided, however, that a reasonable allocation of the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates for legal services, coordinating annual

28


valuations, tax and REIT compliance activities, financing activities and the preparation of reporting packages or reconciliations, in each case in respect of the Investment Entities or the Investments, shall be deemed to be Partnership Expenses to the extent such expenses are included in the Approved Partnership Budget or otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee, it being understood that the General Partner shall have no obligation to oversee or provide the foregoing activities unless there exists an Approved Partnership Budget for the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates performing the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any costs or expenses incurred by the Partnership or a Subsidiary REIT in connection with establishing and maintaining the REIT status of such entity shall be borne entirely by the QuadReal Limited Partner, except to the extent the Sell-Down Transferee requires similar REIT services and structural considerations, in which case, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Partnership.

(d)To the extent that any financing is obtained by the Partnership, any subsidiary or any Investment Entity, the General Partner shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, but not an obligation, to provide (or cause one or more of its Affiliates to provide), any guaranties, indemnities or other credit enhancement as may be required by the lender providing such financing (each, a “Guaranty”); provided, that any such Guaranty shall be Approved by the Executive Committee in accordance with Section 6.2 (after taking into account the Partners’ obligations pursuant to Section 4.3(c)(iv) and any limitation on the deductibility of interest). In the event the General Partner or any of its Affiliates (but not the QuadReal Limited Partner or the Sell-Down Transferee) provides a Guaranty, the General Partner shall be entitled to an annual guarantee fee from the Partnership as set forth on Exhibit D (a “Guaranty Fee”), paid by January 15 of each year and shall be payable in arrears based the applicable averages as of December 31 of the prior year. In the event the Partnership does not pay all or any portion of any Guaranty Fee, such unpaid Guaranty Fee or portion thereof shall accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum until paid. Under no circumstances shall any Partner or any of their respective Affiliates have any obligation to provide any Guaranty.

6.5 Permitted Other Activities.

Subject to Section 6.6, any Partner may engage independently or with others in other business ventures of every nature and description. Except as otherwise expressly  provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit any Affiliate of a Partner from dealing, or otherwise engaging in business, with Persons transacting business with the Partnership or an Investment Entity or from providing services relating to the purchase, sale, financing, management, development, operation, leasing or disposition of industrial-type facilities and receiving compensation therefor, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership or the Investment Entities. Except to the extent provided for under this Agreement, no Partner shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement or the relationship created hereby in or to such other ventures or activities or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership hereunder or any of the Investment Entities.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding other than by a settlement or judgment on the merits or a conviction (for example, termination by a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent) shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption that the General Partner’s conduct did constitute Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence. Each of the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner shall be solely responsible to the Partnership for any Losses relating to any guaranties of Indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities to the extent that such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates causes recourse liability for any GP Indemnitee in respect of such guaranties arising out of such Limited Partner’s or the Special Limited Partner’s (i) Willful Bad Acts or (ii) gross negligence.

(d)Indemnification of the LP Indemnitees and the EC Indemnitees by the Partnership. To the extent that Section 6.7(c) (i) is not applicable, or (ii) if applicable, is not sufficient to cover all Losses to the extent caused by the Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence by the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee, the Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the LP Indemnitees and EC Indemnitees to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all Losses arising out of their role as limited partners of the Partnership or Representatives, respectively, except to the extent such Losses are a result of the Willful Bad Acts of any such LP Indemnitee or EC Indemnitee.

(e)Defense Costs. Expenses incurred by any of the Indemnitees in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Sections 6.7(b) and (d), from time to time, upon request by the Indemnitee shall be advanced by the Partnership prior to the settlement or judgment of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount promptly, with interest calculated at the rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the “Federal Short-Term Rate” as defined in Section 1274(d)(1)(c)(i) of the Code, as amended (or any successor to such section) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is less, calculated upon the outstanding principal balance of such amount, if it shall be determined in a judicial proceeding or a binding arbitration that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement.

(g)Non-Exclusive Rights. The rights provided by Sections 6.7(b), (c) and   (d), shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement in writing or as a matter of law or equity shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee, and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(h)Insurance. The General Partner shall cause the Investment Entities to be covered by such property, casualty, general liability and environmental insurance in connection with the business or activities of the Partnership hereunder and the Investment Entities exercising Due Care. Each insurance policy shall name as additional insureds the Partnership, the General Partner, the Representatives and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine. The cost of any such insurance shall be an expense of the Partnership for purposes of Section 6.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, fidelity bonds or insurance, or errors and omissions insurance, or other insurance not falling within the first sentence hereof, shall be obtained and maintained on behalf of the General Partner at the General Partner’s expense unless otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee.

31


(i)No Disqualification.  An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification  in whole or in part under this Section 6.7 or otherwise by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

6.11Partnership Tax Audit Procedures for Tax Years Ending after December 31, 2017. This Section 6.11 shall apply for tax years ending after December 31, 2017.

(a)Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015. For purposes of this Section 6.11, unless otherwise specified, all references to provisions of the Code shall be to such provisions as enacted by the Partnership Tax Audit Rules as such provisions may subsequently be modified.

(b)Partnership Representative. The General Partner shall be the Company’s designated “partnership representative” within the meaning of Code Section 6223 (the “Tax Representative”) with sole authority to act on behalf of the Partnership for purposes of Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code and any comparable provisions of state or local income tax laws. The General Partner may designate another person to act as the partnership representative, and if such a person is so designated, all references to the “Tax Representative” in this Section 6.11 are to that person.

(c)Preference For Opt-Out. If the Partnership qualifies to elect pursuant to Code Section 6221(b) (or successor provision) to have Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code not apply to any federal income tax audits and other proceedings, the Tax Representative shall cause the Company to make such election.

(d)Notification. The Tax Representative shall promptly, within fifteen days, notify the Partners and the Executive Committee if the Partnership receives any notification or Information Document Request from the IRS indicating that the Partnership is being audited. If any “partnership adjustment” (as defined in Code Section 6241(2)) is determined with respect to the Partnership, the Tax Representative shall promptly notify the Executive Committee upon the receipt of a notice of final partnership adjustment, and shall take such actions as directed by the Executive Committee in writing within 10 Business Days after the receipt of such notice, including whether to file a petition in Tax Court, cause the Partnership to pay the amount of any such adjustment under Code Section 6225, or make the election under Code Section 6226.

(e)Capital Reserve. In the event of an IRS, or equivalent state or local, audit, the Tax Representative may cause the Partnership to engage professionals, experts, and other assistants, to cause appraisals and studies to be conducted on behalf of the Partnership, and to incur reasonable expenses in connection with the defense of the audit. The Partnership shall reserve sufficient capital, and if necessary the Partners may be required to contribute in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests additional capital in a capital call, to defend a Partnership audit. Any such contribution required under this section shall not be subject to any other limitations on required contributions set out in this Agreement including the limitation described in Section 4.3(e), however, in the event that a Partner fails to contribute capital necessary to defend an audit under this section such a Partner shall be treated as a Defaulting Partner under Section 4.4.

(f)Litigation. The Tax Representative shall be authorized to engage in any litigation deemed necessary by the Tax Representative in order to defend any audit or proposed assessment by the IRS, or an equivalent state or local tax authority, against the Partnership. The Tax Representative may engage in such litigation only with the consent of the Executive Committee, but shall not require the consent of any other Partner prior to initiating such

35


litigation. The Partnership shall reserve sufficient capital, and if necessary the Partners may be required to contribute additional capital in a capital call, as set out in subsection (e) above, to pursue such litigation.

(g)Settlement. With the approval of the Executive Committee, the Tax Representative may cause the Partnership to pay the assessment of the imputed underpayment under Section 6225(a)(l) of the Code, or to enter into a settlement agreement regarding that same assessment. In that event, the Executive Committee will reasonably and equitably determine each Partner's and former Partner's share of the imputed underpayment, taking into account the Partner’s or former Partner’s adjusted distributive share in the year or years subject to review in the settled audit and adjustments that may have been made in computing the imputed underpayment. The determination by the Executive Committee will be binding on the Partnership and on each Partner, provided that the determination is made in good faith for a purpose reasonably believed by them to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership unless the determination was the result of actual fraud or willful misconduct or resulted in any improper personal benefit. Each Partner’s and former Partner's share of the imputed underpayment, as reasonably and equitably determined by the Executive Committee, will be treated like a withholding tax under Section 5.7(a) hereof. The obligations of Partners under this paragraph and that this Section 6.11 also will extend to former Partners and to unadmitted assignees of a Partnership Interest who may be considered current or former tax partners of the Partnership.

(h)Code Section 6226 Election. With the approval of the Executive Committee, the Tax Representative may elect under Code Section 6226 and its related Treasury Regulations to cause any Partners affected by an IRS adjustment in an audited tax year or years (the “Reviewed Year Partners”) to take into account the adjustments made by the IRS and to pay any tax, interest, and penalties due as a result of those adjustments. In this case, the Reviewed Year Partners will take into account the adjustments made by the IRS and pay any tax, penalties and interest due as a result of those adjustments. All Reviewed Year Partners will reasonably cooperate with the Tax Representative and will provide to the Tax Representative all Partner information necessary to make this election.

(i)Successor Tax Representative. The Tax Representative may resign from its position as such upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the General Partner, and the General Partner or the Executive Committee may remove the Tax Representative at any time. In that event, the General Partner will designate another person to be Tax Representative.

(j)Code Section 6227 Adjustments. The Tax Representative will notify all Partners before filing, pursuant to Section 6227 of the Code, a request for administrative adjustment of partnership items for any Partnership taxable year. The Tax Representative will file the request for administrative adjustment on behalf of the Partnership if the Executive Committee approves the request for administrative adjustment.

(k)Partnership Adjustment after Withdrawal, Removal, Resignation, or Sale of Partnership Interest. In the event that the Partnership has different Partners, in any class, at  the conclusion of an audit subject to this Section 6.11, and the Partnership must pay an entity level tax in settlement or as a result of an assessment to any taxing authority, the General Partner,

36


if so authorized by the Executive Committee, may, at its discretion, make a claim against any former Partners who were Partners in the Partnership at any time during the adjusted year(s).  The General Partner may claim against said former Partners any amount up to the former Partner’s pro rata share (based on percentage ownership of the Partnership, prorated by the number of days that Partner owned a Partnership Interest during the reviewed year) of the Partnership assessment or settlement for the adjusted year(s). To the extent that the General Partner recoups such claims from former Partners, the current Partners’ contributions for the reviewed year assessment or settlement shall be reduced proportionally to the amount collected from the former Partners. This provision shall survive the withdrawal, removal, resignation or sale of any Partnership Interest as to the withdrawn, resigned, removed, or former Partner. Failure to make such a contribution, after (30) thirty written notice of such claim by the General Partner, by the former Partner shall be considered a breach of this Agreement.

(l)Partnership Adjustment after Liquidation. In the event that the Partnership winds up and liquidates prior to the conclusion of the audit under subject to this Section 6.11, then the Tax Representative may make one or more written capital calls on the Partners for such funds as may be necessary to fund the audit defense under this section. These capital calls will  be made on the Partners and former Partners in accordance with their distributive shares in the reviewed year(s), as determined equitably and in good faith by the General Partner. A Partner or former Partner will be obligated to satisfy a capital call in immediately available funds within ten

(10) Business Days of notice. The General Partner, at its option, may seek reimbursement of all audit expenses and all litigation expenses related to the determination of the correct tax liability of the Partnership from the Partners and former Partners. The General Partner will allocate these expenses equitably among the Partners in seeking reimbursement. This allocation will consider the adjustment to the distributive share of the Partner or the former Partner in the reviewed year and the contribution of that adjustment to the imputed underpayment of the Partnership. After determining the Partners' and former Partners' shares of these expenses, the General Partner will promptly invoice each Partner and former Partner during the reviewed year for that Partner or former Partner's equitable  share of these expenses.  This invoice will be payable on demand.  The Partnership will retain its records with respect to each Fiscal Year until the expiration of the period within which additional federal or state income tax may be assessed for the year.

(m)Tax Representative Indemnity. The Partnership will indemnify and will hold harmless the Tax Representative from and against any and all Tax Representative expenses related to a defense of a tax claim under this Section 6.11. The Tax Representative will properly report these expenses in writing to the General Partner and will provide reasonable documentation of these expenses to the General Partner, in accordance with policies adopted by the General Partner, prior to receiving reimbursement. The Tax Representative will comply with all policies of the Partnership with respect to incurring and documenting expenses.

(n)Code Section 6227 Adjustment. If any subsidiary of the Partnership (i) pays any partnership adjustment under Code Section 6225; (ii) or otherwise requires the Partnership to file an amended tax return and pay associated taxes to reduce the amount of a partnership adjustment imposed on the subsidiary, or (iii) makes an election under Code Section 6226, the Tax Representative shall cause the Partnership to make the administrative adjustment request provided for in Code Section 6227 consistent with the principles and limitations set forth in Section 6.11(d) above for partnership adjustments of the Partnership, and the Partners shall

37


take such actions reasonably requested by the Tax Representative in furtherance of such administrative adjustment request.

(o)Surviving Obligations. The obligations of each Partner or former Partner under this Section 6.11 shall survive the transfer or redemption by such Partner of its Partnership Interest and the termination of this Agreement or the dissolution of the Partnership.

ARTICLE 7.

WITHDRAWAL AND REMOVAL OF GENERAL PARTNER

7.1Voluntary Withdrawal. Except as otherwise provided in Article 8, the General Partner shall not have the right to retire or withdraw voluntarily from the Partnership, and any withdrawal in violation hereof shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the IPT Limited Partner shall have the right to appoint a substitute general partner which shall be an Affiliate of IPT or an Affiliate of BCG or an entity sponsored or advised by an Affiliate of BCG, and which shall be admitted immediately prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner and shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution; provided however, that (i) the withdrawing General Partner shall not be released from any obligations hereunder arising prior to such withdrawal, and (ii) such substitute general partner shall assume all rights and obligations of the withdrawing General Partner from and after such withdrawal. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.1 shall be subject to the Key Person requirements in Section 6.1. Prior to any such voluntary withdrawal from the Partnership and appointment of a substitute general partner, the General Partner shall give the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner notice of its intention to withdraw at least ninety (90) days in advance of such withdrawal.

7.2Bankruptcy or Dissolution of the General Partner. In the event of the bankruptcy of the General Partner or other events that cause the General Partner to cease to be a general partner under Sections 17-402(a)(6), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11) or (12) of the Act, the General Partner shall cease to be the general partner of the Partnership and its Interest shall terminate; provided, however, that such termination shall not affect any rights or liabilities of the General Partner which matured prior to such event, or the value, if any, at the time of such event of the Interest of the General Partner.

7.3Liability of Withdrawn General Partner. If the General Partner shall cease to be general partner of the Partnership, it shall be and remain liable for all obligations and liabilities incurred by it as general partner prior to the time such withdrawal shall have become effective, but it shall be free of any obligation or liability incurred on account of the activities of the Partnership from and after the time such withdrawal shall have become effective; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve the General Partner from any liability arising from any withdrawal from the Partnership in violation of this Agreement.

7.4Removal of General Partner for Cause. The Partners have set forth certain terms relating to the Removal of the General Partner in Exhibit M, which is incorporated by reference and attached hereto; all references herein to Section 7.4 shall be referred to Exhibit M.

ARTICLE 8.

TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

8.1 Assignments.

(a)Restriction of Assignments. No Partner shall, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, transfer by gift, exchange or otherwise dispose of or encumber its Interests by operation of law or otherwise (all of the foregoing being referred to hereinafter as a “Transfer”, but excluding from the definition of Transfer any IPT REIT Listing Transaction), except in accordance with this Section 8.1. Any assignment and the rights of the assignee with respect to the assigned Interest in connection with a Transfer permitted by this Agreement shall be subject to Section 8.2. Any Transfer made in contravention of this Agreement shall be null and void and the transferee shall receive no right, title or interest in or to any Interests as a result of such Transfer made in violation of this Agreement. In addition, any Transfer otherwise permitted by this Agreement shall be null and void unless (i) the permitted transferee (the “Transferee”) agrees to adopt and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and other relevant documents as if the Transferee had been an original party hereto and (ii) the Transfer would not result in any violation of the ownership limitations set forth in the organizational documents of each Investment Entity intended to preserve the qualification of such Investment Entity as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 856  of the Code. The parties acknowledge that a transfer or issuance of any interests in IPT, IPT HoldCo, IPT OpCo, IPT Advisors Group, or IPT Advisors or any BCIG Partner shall not constitute a Transfer for the purposes of this Agreement; provided, that such a transfer may still constitute an IPT Change of Control pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(vi).

(b)Permitted Assignments. Subject to the General Partner’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.2(e), (x) at any time, each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to an Affiliate of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or (y) from and after the date on which Stabilization has been obtained in respect of the Partnership’s last acquired Development Investment (the “Trigger Date”), but subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), a Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to any Unrelated Third Party; provided, however, that any Transfer shall be subject, in all events, to the following limitations:

(i)no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, such assignment would require filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any Federal or state securities or Blue Sky laws (including any investment suitability standards) or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Interests;

(ii)no Transfer on any date of an Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would be effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code;

39


(iii)no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it likely would cause any Investment Entity to no longer qualify as a real estate investment trust or would subject any Investment Entity to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code;

(iv)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is an Accredited Investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, as certified to the satisfaction of the Partnership;

(v)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is (A) a real estate investment trust, bank, saving and loan association, investment bank, insurance company, trust company, commercial credit corporation, pension plan, pension fund or pension advisory firm, mutual fund, government entity or plan, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause
(A)satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (B) an investment company, money management firm or “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause (B) satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (C) an institution substantially similar to any of the Persons described in clause (A) or
(B)above that satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, or (D) an investment fund, limited liability company, limited partnership or general partnership where either

(I) a nationally-recognized manager of investment funds that (x) invests in debt or equity interests relating to commercial real estate, (y) invests through a fund with committed capital of at least One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000), and (z) is not the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding or (II) an entity that is otherwise a Qualified Institutional Transferee under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above acts as the general partner, managing member or fund manager and at least fifty percent (50%) of the equity interests in such investment vehicle are owned, directly or indirectly, by one or more Persons that are otherwise Qualified Institutional Transferees under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above (each of the foregoing, a “Qualified Institutional Transferee”);

(vi)no Transfer of any Interest held by the IPT Limited Partner may be made to a Transferee unless the General Partner concurrently Transfers its Interest to such Transferee (or to such Transferee’s Affiliate or designee); and

(vii)no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a governmental or sovereign entity of British Columbia.

As used herein, “Eligibility Requirements” shall mean with respect to any Person, that (x) such Person has total assets (in name, under management or advisement and/or pursuant to undrawn, binding, irrevocable capital commitments) in excess of One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) and (except with respect to a pension advisory firm, registered investment advisor or asset manager) capital/statutory surplus, shareholder’s equity and/or undrawn, binding, irrevocable capital commitments of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000,000) and (y) such

40


Person is regularly engaged in the business of making or owning (or, in the case of a pension advisory firm, registered investment advisor, asset manager or similar fiduciary, regularly engaged in managing investments in) debt or equity interests relating to commercial real estate.

In addition, subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), at any time following the Trigger Date, upon receipt of prior written approval thereof by the QuadReal Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, that it shall be deemed reasonable  to take into consideration factors other than financial capability), the General Partner may, on its own behalf and on behalf of the IPT Limited Partner, Transfer all of the Interests held by the General Partner and the IPT Limited Partner in the Partnership to a Qualified Institutional Transferee, in which event the provisions of Article 7 shall apply governing substitution of the General Partner and transition of its duties and responsibilities to a substitute general partner of the Partnership.

(c) Rights of First Opportunity.

(i)If any Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) should desire to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner or a Transfer pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or a Transfer pursuant to Section 8.1(h), such Partner (the “Offering Partner”) first shall submit to all of the other Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) (the “Offeree Partners”) a binding written offer (the “Offer”) to sell such Interest to the Offeree Partners; provided, that a copy of any Offer shall also be delivered to the Special Limited Partner. The Offer shall include the price of the Interest (the “Offer Price”) and any other terms of the proposed Transfer and shall continue to be a binding offer to sell until the earlier of (i) the date the Offer is expressly rejected by all the Offeree Partners or (ii) the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Offer by the Offeree Partners (the “Offer Period”). If the Offeree Partner(s) desire to accept the Offer, the Offeree Partner(s) shall notify the Offering Partner in writing prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, which notice shall be irrevocable (a “ROFO Acceptance Notice”). If any IPT Partner is an Offeree Partner, and it rejects the Offer, then, at any time for ten (10) Business Days immediately following the expiration of the Offer Period, the BCIG Limited Partner may elect to acquire the Interest offered to such IPT Partner pursuant to such Offer by delivering the Offering Partner a ROFO Acceptance Notice specifying such election. If more than one Offeree Partner shall have accepted the Offer within the Offer Period, then the Interests shall be allocated among such Offeree Partners as they may agree or, if they fail to agree, then in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase. As used herein, “Allocable Share” shall  mean with respect to any Partner, a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is such Partner’s Percentage Interest and (y) the denominator of which is the sum of the applicable Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests.

(ii) Closing.

41


(A) Closing Date. The closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be held on the date mutually selected by the Offeree Partner(s) that is no later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the last ROFO Acceptance Notice (the  “Closing  Period”). The closing shall be completed through a customary  closing escrow, and the Offer Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds.  The closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be on an “as is” and “where is” basis with no representations or warranties other than a representation from the Offering Partner that (A) it owns the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances other than permitted liens, claims or encumbrances that were deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or an Investment Entity, (B) it has full right and authority to sell such Interest and that the sale has been duly authorized,

(C) the assignment document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, (D) the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Offering Partner is a party, or any order, judgment, or decree applicable to the Offering Partner and (E) no consent, approval, or authorization of or designation, declaration, or filing with any governmental authority or other Person is required on the part of the Offering Partner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or, if required, has been obtained (clauses (A) - (E), the “Required Representations”).

(B) Required Documents. Prior to or at the closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner shall supply to the Offeree Partner(s) all documents customarily required (or reasonably required by the Offeree Partner(s)) to make a good and sufficient conveyance of such Interest to the Offeree Partner(s), which documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.

(C) Conditions Precedent to Closing. The obligation of the Offeree Partner(s) to pay the purchase price in connection with a sale of Interests pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be conditioned upon the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, other than

42


permitted liens, claims and encumbrances that were waived by the Offeree Partner(s) and deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and permitted liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities. This condition is for the sole benefit of the Offeree Partner(s) and may be waived by the Offeree Partner(s) in whole or in part in each of their sole discretion.

(D) Brokerage. No brokerage fees or commissions shall be payable by the Partnership in connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), and each Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any such claims made  based upon the actions of such Partner, including any fees and expenses in defending any such claims.

(iii) In connection with any sale made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c):

(A) the Offeree Partner(s) shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by purchasers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction where the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as  applicable);

(B) the Offering Partner shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by sellers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);

(C) the Offering Partner and the Offeree Partner(s) each shall pay its own legal fees; and

(D) the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall adjust the purchase price to reflect all adjustments customarily made in connection with the sale of companies that own and operate real estate in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include the proration and apportionment of any revenues and expenses of the Investments).

In the event of a dispute with respect to any of the adjustments and prorations to be made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(iii), each of the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall submit to an arbitration pursuant to Section 9.4 of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall be limited to awarding only one or the other of the two adjustment proposals submitted.

43


The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.

(iv)Within three (3) Business Days after the Offering Partner’s receipt of a ROFO Acceptance Notice, the Offeree Partner(s) shall deposit  in immediately available funds to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the price of the offered Interest (the “Deposit”). The Deposit shall be applied against the Offer Price at closing and shall be nonrefundable to the Offeree Partner(s) (except in the event of a material default of the Offering Partner in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii)).

(v)At the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partner(s) have accepted the Offer, the Offering Partner may Transfer the Interest (in whole, but not in part) subject to the Offer to any Transferee (but subject to the Offeree Partner(s)’ continuing rights to participate in a Tag Along Transfer) for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Offer Period. If no such sale is made by the Offering Partner within such one hundred and twenty (120) day period, the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.1(c) thereafter shall continue to apply to the offered Interest, and no Interests thereafter shall be subject to a Transfer by the Offering Partner without again first complying with all the provisions of this Agreement.

(vi)Termination of Obligations. Upon the effective date of  any transfer of an Interest pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such transferred Interest, except as to indemnity rights of such Partner under this Agreement attributable to acts or events occurring prior to the effective date of such transfer and except for liabilities and obligations of such Partner arising out of such Partner’s breach of this Agreement.

(vii)Offeree Partner(s) Failure to Close Offer. If the Offeree Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offeree Partner(s) (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offeree Partner(s) shall be in material default hereunder and the Offering Partner shall have the right to retain the Deposit and the Offeree Partner(s) shall reimburse the Offering Partner for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offering Partner in connection with the exercise of the Offer. Thereafter, the Offering Partner (1) may pursue any other sale of its Interest to an Unrelated Third Party for a cash price and such other terms and conditions as are determined by the Offering Partner in its sole discretion (without regard to the Offer Price) for an unrestricted period and without any obligation to give any notices of such sale (including any Offer, it being agreed that this Section 8.1(c) shall no longer be applicable to such sale) or (2) may elect to purchase the Interests of the Offeree Partner(s) at the Offer Price. Further, thereafter, the Offeree Partner(s) shall not

44


under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).

(viii)Offering Partner Failure to Close Offer. If the Offeree Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offering Partner (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offering Partner shall be in material default hereunder and the Offeree Partner(s) shall have the right to either (1) seek specific performance from the Offering Partner in respect of such sale or (2) elect not to close, in which event the Offering Partner shall return the Deposit to the Offeree Partner(s), the Offering Partner shall pay to the Offeree Partner(s) an amount equal to the Deposit, and the Offering Partner shall reimburse the Offeree Partner(s) for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offeree Partner(s) in connection with exercising the relevant Offer. Further, thereafter, the Offering Partner shall not under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant  to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).

(ix)Release of Offering Partner. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, it shall be a requirement of any offer and the closing of any acquisition of an Interest pursuant to an Offer to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a release of the Offering Partner and the Offering Partner’s Affiliates from any personal liability arising out of any and all written documents (e.g., a guaranty) with respect to any and all Partnership or Investment Entity indebtedness or obligations, including without limitation, all loans secured by any Investment (and in the event that such release is not possible in spite of commercially reasonable efforts, a creditworthy entity reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner shall indemnify the Offering Partner and its Affiliates for any claims against the Offering Partner under any such written documents on such terms and conditions to be agreed to by the Offering Partner in its reasonable discretion until such indebtedness or obligations are released).

(d)Tag-Along Right. Subject to the foregoing, after the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partners have accepted the Offer and the Offering Partner should desire to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) to a Transferee, other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner or pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or (h), if the Offering Partner wishes to Transfer its Interest to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Offering Partner or pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or (h)) (a “Tag Along Transfer”), the Offering Partner shall comply with the requirements of this Section 8.1(d).

(i)Prior to undertaking a Tag Along Transfer, the Offering Partner shall provide written notice to the Offeree Partners and the Special Limited Partner (the “Tag Along Notice”), which notice shall set forth
(A) all of the material terms and conditions, including consideration pursuant to which it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer (the Tag Along Offer Terms”) and

45


(B) the identity of, and information concerning, the Person (the “Tag Along Purchaser”) to whom it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer.

(ii)Within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of an effective Tag Along Notice (the “Tag Along Offer Period”), each Offeree Partner shall give written notice to the Offering Partner that (A) such Offeree Partner elects to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser on the Tag Along Offer Terms  (the “Tag Along Option”) or (B) such Offeree Partner elects not to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser (the “Non-Transfer Option”). An Offeree Partner shall be conclusively deemed to have elected the Non-Transfer Option if it fails to give written notice of its election of either of the above- described options within such ten (10) Business Day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tag Along Notice is delivered simultaneously with or within twenty (20) days after an Offer is distributed to the Partners pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the time periods for notices and responses under Section 8.1(c) shall govern, as applicable.

(iii)If an Offeree Partner elects or is deemed to have elected the Non- Transfer Option, the Offering Partner shall be permitted to make the Tag Along Transfer without such Offeree Partner, so long as such Tag Along Transfer takes place within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the Tag Along Notice and is otherwise in accordance with Section 8.1.

(iv)If an Offeree Partner elects the Tag Along Option, the Offering Partner shall not make the Tag Along Transfer to the Tag Along Purchaser unless such Tag Along Purchaser acquires, simultaneously with its acquisition of the Offering Partner’s Interest, the Interest of such Offeree Partner at a purchase price equal to (i) the purchase price for the Offering Partner’s Interest divided by the Offering Partner’s Percentage Interest multiplied by (ii) the Offeree Partner’s Percentage Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate reasonable and customary expenses of the Partners incurred in connection with the transfer of their Interests (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any brokerage fees) shall be paid (or reimbursed) out of the aggregate purchase price paid to the transferring Partners.

(v)If an Offeree Partner shall exercise the Tag Along Option, such Offeree Partner shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause its Interest to be transferred to the Tag Along Purchaser, such actions to include, without limitation, executing a contract of sale if requested to do so by the Tag Along Purchaser (which contract shall be commercially reasonable and no more onerous to such Offeree Partner than the contract of sale executed by the Offering Partner) and complying with the terms thereof.

(e)IPT Sell-Down. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the IPT Limited Partner may Transfer a portion of its Interest at any time (the “IPT Sell-Down”) to one real estate investor approved in writing by the QuadReal Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) (the “Sell-Down Transferee”); provided, that

46


the IPT Limited Partner shall maintain at least a ten percent (10%) Percentage Interest in the Partnership immediately following any such IPT Sell-Down.

(f)Successors to a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner. If a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner becomes bankrupt, the trustee or receiver of the estate, shall have all of the rights of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, solely for the purpose of settling or managing the estate and such power as such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, possessed to assign all or any part of the Interest and to join with the assignee thereof in satisfying conditions precedent to such assignee becoming a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable. The bankruptcy of a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner in and of itself shall not dissolve the Partnership or cause any successor to such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, to become a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable, of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner.

(g)Recognition of Assignment. The Partnership will not recognize for any purpose any assignment of any Interest unless (i) there shall have been filed with the Partnership a duly executed and acknowledged counterpart of the instrument making such assignment signed by both the assignor and the assignee and such instrument evidences, inter alia, the written acceptance by the assignee of all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and represents that such assignment was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations (including investment suitability standards) and (ii) the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) has determined that such an assignment is permitted under this Article 8. Irrespective of whether or not any successor to a Partner or a purported assignee of a Partner’s Interest hereunder provides the aforesaid instruments, any such Person shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. As a condition to any voluntary assignment of an Interest, the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) may require that the assignor or the assignee of the Interest or their respective representatives provide to the Partnership information that is reasonably requested by counsel to the Partnership to enable such counsel to determine that such assignment is not prohibited by this Article 8.

(h)BCIG Partner Acquisition of IPT Partner Interests. At any time, notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary and not subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), the IPT Partners may Transfer all or any portion of their respective Interests to one or more Affiliates of BCG; provided, that (i) if the General Partner (so long as the General Partner is an IPT Partner) Transfers all but not less than all of its Interest to one or more Affiliates of BCG, such transferee shall become a substitute General Partner hereunder and assume all of the rights and obligations of the General Partner hereunder accruing on and after the date of such Transfer, and in such event the provisions of Article 7 shall apply governing substitution of the General Partner and transition of its duties and responsibilities to a substitute general partner of the Partnership, and (ii) if the IPT Limited Partner Transfers all, but not less than all, of its Interest to one or more Affiliates of BCG, such transferee shall, from and after the date of such Transfer, assume the rights and obligations of IPT Limited Partner hereunder, including the right to appoint a Representative to the Executive Committee pursuant to Section

3.1 and the IPT Limited Partner’s rights set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.2.

47


(i)   Continued Obligations.    In no event shall a permitted Transfer be deemed   to relieve the Partners who transfer their Interests from their obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, including, without limitation, their obligations with respect to Capital Contributions, except obligations arising after the permitted Transferee becomes a substituted Partner in accordance with Section 8.2.

8.2 Admission of Assignees as Substituted Partners.

(a)Requirements for Admission. No assignee of a Partner’s Interest, whether or not such assignment is permitted under Section 8.1, shall be entitled to become a substituted Partner unless:

(i)the assignee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by and shall have accepted, adopted and approved in writing all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, as the same may have been amended, and executed a power of attorney similar to the power of attorney granted in this Agreement; and

(ii)the assignee shall pay or obligate itself to pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with his admission as a substituted Partner.

(b)Effect of Assignment.

ARTICLE 9.

BUY-SELL; FORCED SALE; DISPUTE RESOLUTION

9.1 Buy-Sell.

48


(a) Process.

(i)At any time after the Trigger Date, any Limited Partner (which in the case of the IPT Limited Partner, shall be deemed to include the General Partner for all purposes of this Article 9) that is not a BCIG Partner, the Special Limited Partner or a Defaulting Partner (the “Triggering Partner”) may initiate the procedures of this Section 9.1 (the “Buy-Sell”) by delivery of a written notice (a “Buy-Sell Notice”) to the other Limited Partners (the “Responding Partners”) and the Special Limited Partner stating that the Triggering Partner desires to initiate the Buy-Sell. In the event that more than one Limited Partner issues a Buy-Sell Notice in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.1, the Buy-Sell Notice complying with this Section 9.1(a) that is issued first (i.e., the Buy-Sell Notice received by the other applicable Limited Partners first as determined by  the date and time of receipt) shall be effective, and the other Buy-Sell Notice(s) shall be deemed not to have been issued (and therefore be ineffective).

(ii)The Buy-Sell Notice shall set forth the gross purchase price for the Portfolio proposed by the Triggering Partner (the “Offered Price”). Until the  date which is ninety (90) days after receipt of an Buy-Sell Notice (the “Response Period”), the Responding Partners may deliver a written notice which shall be irrevocable to the Triggering Partner after electing either to (A) accept the offer to sell its Interest (an “Acceptance Notice”) to the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Responding Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to sell, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Selling Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”) or (B) elect to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Triggering Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to buy, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Purchasing Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”); provided, that if one Responding Partner elects to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner and the other Responding Partner elects to sell its Interest to the Triggering Partner, the Responding Partner electing to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall  also be required to buy the Interest of the other Responding Partner at the price applicable to such Responding Partner’s Interest (which shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”). A failure to respond during the Response Period shall be deemed to constitute an election to sell. If more than one Purchasing Partner shall

49


have elected to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner, then the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall be allocated among such Purchasing Partners in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if IPT has commenced a bona fide, good faith IPT REIT Listing Transaction, the IPT Partners may, one-time only, delay (up to no more than ninety (90) days) any Buy-Sell triggered by any Limited Partner; provided, however, if IPT has filed an offering document with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), such ninety (90)-day period may be extended for up to three (3) additional separate one (1)-month periods as long as IPT is diligently responding to comments from the SEC at the time of each such extension.

(b)Carried Interest Amounts. In connection with a Buy-Sell, if the Carried Interest Amounts have not been previously paid or otherwise satisfied in accordance  with Section 5.3, the Partnership shall (x) pay the General Partner Carried Interest Amount to the General Partner and (y) effect the Redemption and pay the Redemption Price to the Special Limited Partner, in each case, following the procedures set forth in Section 5.3, except that the date of the closing of the Buy-Sell shall be substituted for the Calculation Date, an amount equal to the Offered Price shall be substituted for the Appraised Value and the General Partner Carried Interest Amount and the Redemption Price shall be paid in cash to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, at the closing of the Buy-Sell.

(c)Deposit. Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance Notice, the Purchasing Partner(s) shall deposit in immediately available funds to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Selling Partner(s) an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Purchasing Partner(s)’ Applicable Share of the Buy-Sell Price (the “Buy-Sell Deposit”). The Buy-Sell Deposit shall be applied to the Buy-Sell Price at closing and shall be nonrefundable to the Purchasing Partner(s) (except in the event of a material default of the Selling Partner(s) in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 9.1(d)).

(d) Closing.

(i)Closing Date. The closing of the sale of Interests to the Purchasing Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be held on the date mutually selected by the Purchasing Partner(s) that is no later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the Acceptance Notice (the “Buy-Sell Closing Period”). The closing shall be completed through a customary closing escrow, and the Buy-Sell Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds. The closing of the sale of Interests to the Purchasing Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be on an “as is” and “where is” basis with no representations or warranties other than the Required Representations.

This condition is for the sole benefit of the Purchasing Partner(s) and may be waived by the Purchasing Partner(s) in whole or in part in each of their sole discretion.

(e)Brokerage. No brokerage fees or commissions shall be payable by the Partnership in connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 9.1, and each Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any such claims made based upon the actions of such Partner, including any fees and expenses in defending any such claims.

(f)Adjustments and Closing Costs. In connection with any sale made pursuant to this Section 9.1:

(i)the Purchasing Partner(s) shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by purchasers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction where the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);

(h)Purchasing Partner(s) Failure to Close Buy-Sell. If the Purchasing Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered an Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Buy-Sell Closing Period as a result of a default of the Purchasing Partner(s) (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Purchasing Partner(s) shall be in material default hereunder and the Selling Partner(s) shall have the right to retain the Buy-Sell Deposit and the Purchasing Partner(s) shall reimburse the Selling Partner(s) for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Selling Partner(s) in connection with the exercise of the relevant Buy-Sell. Thereafter, the Selling Partner(s) (1) may pursue any other sale of its Interest to an Unrelated Third Party for a cash price and such other terms and conditions as are determined by the Selling Partner(s) in each of their sole discretion (without regard to the Offered Price) for an unrestricted period and without any obligation to give any notices of such sale (including any Buy-Sell Notice or Offer Notice, it being agreed that Section 8.1(c) or this Section 9.1 shall no longer be applicable to such sale) or (2) may elect to purchase the Interests of the Purchasing Partner(s) at the Offered Price.

(i)Not more than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, any Limited Partner except a BCIG Partner, the Special Limited Partner or a Defaulting Partner shall have the right to cause a sale (a “Forced Sale”) of the Portfolio and other assets of the Partnership and any Investment Entity to a Person that is not an Affiliate of such Limited Partner. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, no Forced Sale may be triggered while a Forced Sale or Buy-Sell has been triggered and the process relating to such Forced Sale or Buy- Sell is continuing.

(ii)If pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i), a Limited Partner has the right to trigger and effectuate a Forced Sale, then such Limited Partner (such triggering party, the “Initiator”) shall notify (the “Forced Sale Notice”) the other Partners of its desire to exercise its rights under this Section 9.2(a).

If more than one Recipient shall have elected to buy the Interests of the Initiator, then the Interest of the Initiator shall be allocated among such Recipients in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase.

With respect to a Forced Sale, the Initiator shall have the right to execute on behalf of the Partnership (or any Investment Entity) any and all contracts, agreements or certifications to effectuate such sale and in the event the Recipient(s) shall fail or refuse to execute any of such instruments in connection with a Forced Sale, the Initiator is hereby granted, without any further action or documents required, an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, which shall be binding on the Recipient(s) as to all third parties, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Recipient(s) all such required instruments of transfer.

9.3Specific Performance. It is expressly agreed that the remedy at law for breach of any of the obligations set forth in Section 8.1(c), Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 is inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a party to comply fully with each of such obligations, and
(ii)the uniqueness of each Partner’s business and assets and the relationship of the Partners. Accordingly, unless expressly provided otherwise herein, each of the aforesaid obligations and restrictions shall be, and is hereby expressly made, enforceable by specific performance without the necessity to prove irreparable harm or to post a bond.

The Partnership has agreed to pay certain fees (the “Fees”) as compensation for providing the services to the Partnership (the “Services”) that are specifically


enumerated in Section 6.3(a) of the Partnership Agreement, other than any investment advisory services with respect to securities (“Investment Advisory Services”), including, where applicable, providing such services to the subsidiaries of the Partnership.

The General Partner is an indirect subsidiary of Industrial Property Trust Inc., a Maryland corporation (“IPT”).

RECITALS:

A.The General Partner is the general partner of Build-to-Core Industrial Partnership II LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and has entered into that certain Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, dated as of the date hereof (the “Partnership Agreement”), by and among the General Partner, IPT BTC II LP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is a subsidiary of IPT (the “IPT Limited Partner” and, together with the General Partner, collectively, the “IPT Partners”), Industrial Property Advisors Sub IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor Sub IV”), BCG BTC II Investors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “BCG Investors”) and the QuadReal Limited Partner (as defined therein) (each a “Limited Partner” and, together with the IPT Partners, the Advisor Sub IV and the BCG Investors, collectively, the “Partners”).

B.The Partnership Agreement sets forth the terms pursuant to which the Partners intend to jointly invest in a portfolio of industrial properties located in major United States distribution markets. Any term with its initial letter capitalized and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Partnership Agreement.

C.Pursuant to Article 6 of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner, in its capacity as General Partner, is obligated to provide or appoint others, including its affiliates, to provide the Partnership with day-to-day management services, including but not limited to acquisition and asset management services and, to the extent applicable with respect to certain Partnership investments, development and construction management, property management, leasing and disposition services. The Partnership has agreed to pay certain fees (the “Fees”) as compensation for providing the services to the Partnership (the “Services”) that are specifically enumerated in Section 6.3(a) of the Partnership Agreement, other than any investment advisory services with respect to securities (“Investment Advisory Services”), including, where applicable, providing such services to the subsidiaries of the Partnership. The Fees are set forth in Exhibit D to the Partnership Agreement.

D.Pursuant to the Fourth Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement, dated as of August 12, 2016 (the “Advisory Agreement”), by and among IPT, Industrial Property Operating Partnership LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and Industrial Property Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Advisor”), the Advisor provides acquisition and asset management services and, to the extent applicable with respect to certain of IPT’s investments, development and construction management, property management, leasing and disposition services to IPT and IPT’s subsidiaries. The General Partner does not and will not have any employees. Accordingly, the General Partner desires to appoint the Advisor Sub, a subsidiary of the Advisor as the provider of the Services and to assign to the Advisor Sub


all the Fees associated therewith, except for the Guaranty Fee (such assigned Fees which exclude the Guaranty Fee referred to herein as the “Assigned Fees”), and the Advisor Sub desires to accept such appointment and such assignment.

E.The General Partner acknowledges and agrees that one hundred percent (100%) of the Assigned Fees should be paid directly by the Partnership to the Advisor Sub, as the entity that shall provide the Services to the Partnership and its subsidiaries.

NOW THEREFORE, the General Partner and the Advisor Sub hereby agree as follows:

1.Appointment.

2.Assigned Fees.

The General Partner shall direct the Partnership to pay the Assigned Fees directly to Advisor Sub. As a result of the payment of the Assigned Fees pursuant to this Section 2, the fees payable to the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement will be reduced by the product of (a) the Assigned Fees paid to the Advisor Sub, and (b) the percentage interest of the Partnership owned by IPT or any entity in which IPT directly or indirectly owns an interest.

4.            The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:

a.            Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;

b.            Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

5.            The registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

a.            All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
