BLACK CREEK INDUSTRIAL REIT IV INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” 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, 2018 , filed with the SEC on March 6, 2019 (“2018 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 Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Subtopic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for greater transparency in financial reporting by organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes and manufacturing equipment by requiring such organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the standard when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. Under the practical expedients election, the Company was not required to reassess: (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for expired or existing leases; and (iii) whether costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. The practical expedient also allowed the Company to not separate tenant reimbursement revenue from rental revenue if certain criteria were met. The Company assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the related tenant reimbursement revenue are the same and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As such, the Company accounts for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursement revenue as a single component in the condensed consolidated statements of operations . The standard also requires new disclosures within the notes accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, in January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, “Leases (Subtopic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842” (“ASU 2018-01”), which updates ASU 2016-02 to include land easements under the updated guidance, including the option to elect the practical expedient discussed above. The Company also adopted ASU 2018-01 when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. In addition, in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20, “Narrow—Scope Improvements for Lessors” (“ASU 2018-20”), which updates ASU 2016-02 by providing the option to elect a practical expedient for lessors to exclude sales and other similar taxes from the transaction price of the contract, requires lessors to exclude from revenue and expense lessor costs paid directly to a third party by lessees, and clarifies lessors’ accounting for variable payments related to both lease and nonlease components. The Company adopted ASU 2018-20 when it became effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and the Company elected the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. The adoption of these standards did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2019-01”), which updates ASU 2016-02 to clarify that entities are not required to provide interim disclosures related to their adoption of ASU 2016-02 as required for other accounting changes and error corrections. The Company adopted this standard in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
BCI IV Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”) holds, either directly or indirectly, partnership units in the Company’s operating partnership (“OP Units”), which were issued as payment of the performance component of the advisory fee for the year ended December 31, 2018 pursuant to the amended and restated advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) by and among the

7


Company, BCI IV Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”) and BCI IV Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”). The Company has classified these OP Units as redeemable noncontrolling interest in mezzanine equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets due to the fact that, as defined in the operating partnership agreement, the Sponsor has the ability to redeem its OP units at the election of the Sponsor. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the greater of the carrying amount, adjusted for its share of the allocation of income or loss and dividends, or the redemption value, which is equivalent to fair value, of such OP units at the end of each measurement period.
Reclassifications
Certain items in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets for 2018 have been reclassified to conform to the 2019 presentation. Debt issuance costs related to the line of credit have been reclassified from assets to liabilities and are presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the related debt liability.
3. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS

The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 1.60% to 2.50% ; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.60% to 1.50% , 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. A pledge of equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries that directly own unencumbered properties will be provided until such time as the Company elects to terminate such pledges, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants. As of June 30, 2019 , the unused portion under the line of credit was $57.9 million , and we had no amounts available.
(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 Company has the ability to borrow an additional $110.0 million under this term loan for total commitments of $200.0 million , of which $90.1 million was available as of June 30, 2019 . 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 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 debt was approximately 3.1 years as of June 30, 2019 , excluding any extension options on the line of credit.
As of June 30, 2019, the principal payments due on the Company’s consolidated debt during each of the next five years and thereafter were as follows:

The term of the line of credit may be extended pursuant to two one -year extension options, subject to certain conditions.
LIBOR is expected to be discontinued after 2021. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s term loan is its only indebtedness with a maturity beyond 2021 that has 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

11


assurances as to whether such replacement or alternative base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. 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 June 30, 2019 .
6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company estimates fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies it believes to be appropriate for these purposes. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, prepaid expenses, other assets, due from/to affiliates, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The table below includes fair values for certain of the Company’s financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
References to the terms “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, our ability to raise capital and effectively and timely deploy the net proceeds of our public offering, the expected use of net proceeds from the public offering, our reliance on the Advisor and BCI IV Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), our understanding of our competition and our ability to compete effectively, our financing needs, our expected leverage, the effects of our current strategies, rent and occupancy growth, general conditions in the geographic area where we will operate, our future debt and financial position, our future capital expenditures, future distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), other developments and trends of the real estate industry, investment strategies and the expansion and growth of our operations. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “project,” or the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions, and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:
Our ability to raise capital and effectively deploy the net proceeds raised in our public offering in accordance with our investment strategy and objectives;
The failure of properties to perform as we expect;
Risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and development of properties;
Our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations;
Unexpected delays or increased costs associated with any development projects;
The availability of cash flows from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures;
Defaults on or non-renewal of leases by customers, lease renewals at lower than expected rent, or failure to lease properties at all or on favorable rents and terms;
Difficulties in economic conditions generally and the real estate, debt, and securities markets specifically;
Legislative or regulatory changes, including changes to the laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”);
Our failure to obtain, renew, or extend necessary financing or access the debt or equity markets;
Conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with the Sponsor, the Advisor, and their affiliates;
Risks associated with using debt to fund our business activities, including re-financing and interest rate risks;
Increases in interest rates, operating costs, or greater than expected capital expenditures;
Changes to GAAP; and
Our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT.
Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could prove to be inaccurate. Our stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances, or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, the risks described under “Risk Factors,” the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

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.
We have registered with the SEC an initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of our common stock in any combination of Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares, consisting of $1.5 billion in our primary offering and up to $500.0 million in shares under our distribution reinvestment plan. We are offering 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 June 30, 2019 , we had raised gross proceeds of approximately $388.2 million from the sale of 37.1 million  shares of our common stock and the issuance of notes payable in our public and private offerings, including shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. See “ Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ” for information concerning our public and private offerings.
As of June 30, 2019 , we owned and managed a real estate portfolio that included 34 industrial buildings totaling approximately 5.7 million square feet located in 12 markets throughout the U.S., with 86 customers, and was 99.1% occupied ( 99.6% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 4.4 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.
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 execute our corporate financing strategy 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 that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. See our valuation procedures, incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for a more detailed description of our valuation procedures, including important disclosure regarding real property valuations provided by Altus Group U.S. Inc. (the “Independent Valuation Firm”). All parties engaged by us in the calculation of our NAV, including the Advisor, are subject to the oversight of our board of directors. Generally, all of our real properties are appraised once each calendar year by third-party appraisal firms in accordance with our valuation procedures and such appraisals are reviewed by our Independent Valuation Firm. As used below, “Fund Interests” means our outstanding shares of common stock, along with the partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) held directly or indirectly by the Sponsor, and “Aggregate Fund NAV” means the NAV of all of the Fund Interests.
The following table sets forth the components of Aggregate Fund NAV as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

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 the Dealer Manager in future periods for shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2019 , we estimated approximately $13.6 million of ongoing distribution fees were potentially payable to the Dealer Manager. We intend for our NAV to reflect our estimated value on the date that we determine our NAV. As such, we do not deduct the liability for estimated future distribution fees in our calculation of NAV that may become payable after the date as of which our NAV is calculated.
The valuation for our real properties as of June 30, 2019  was provided by the Independent Valuation Firm in accordance with our valuation procedures and determined by starting with the acquisition price of our real properties, which was adjusted based on subsequent events and assumptions used by the Independent Valuation Firm. Certain key assumptions that were used by our Independent Valuation Firm in the discounted cash flow analysis are set forth in the following table:
 
 
Weighted-Average
Basis
Exit capitalization rate
 
5.4
%
Discount rate / internal rate of return
 
6.5
%
Holding period of real properties (years)

A change in the rates used would impact the calculation of the value of our real properties. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, the changes listed below would result in the following effects on the value of our real properties:

The valuation of our debt obligations as of June 30, 2019 was calculated in accordance with fair value standards under GAAP. The key assumption used in the discounted cash flow analysis was the market interest rate. Market interest rates relating to the underlying debt obligations are based on unobservable Level 3 inputs, which we have determined to be our best estimate of current market interest rates of similar instruments. The weighted-average market interest rate used in the June 30, 2019 valuation was 3.63%.
A change in the market interest rates used could impact the calculation of the fair value of our debt obligations. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, a decrease in the weighted-average market interest rate of 0.25% would increase the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.24%. Alternatively, assuming all other factors remain constant, an increase in the weighted-average market interest rate of 0.25% would decrease the fair value of our debt obligations by approximately 0.57%.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary of 2019 Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we completed the following activities:
Our NAV was $10.0583 per share as of June 30, 2019 as compared to $10.0571 per share as of December 31, 2018 .
We raised $175.4 million of gross equity capital from our public offering.
We acquired 21 industrial buildings comprising 2.9 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $306.5 million , exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, and other closing costs. We funded these acquisitions with proceeds from our public offering and debt financings.
In February 2019, our $200.0 million credit facility was amended and restated to provide for a $200.0 million line of credit facility and a $200.0 million term loan facility. We have the ability to increase the size of the aggregate commitment under the credit facility agreement up to $600.0 million, subject to certain conditions.

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 $6.2 million and $12.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018 , primarily due to growth in our portfolio over these periods.
Rental Expenses . Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our customers, such as real estate taxes, property insurance, property management fees, repair and maintenance, and utilities. Total rental expenses increased by approximately $1.4 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018 , primarily due to growth in our portfolio over these periods.
Other Expenses. Other expenses, in aggregate, increased by approximately $5.7 million and $14.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to the same periods in 2018 , 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 $4.9 million and $9.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as a result of the growth in our portfolio, as compared to the same periods in 2018;
a net decrease in expense support from the Advisor of $0.4 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, primarily due to the Company reimbursing the Advisor in 2019 for previously deferred fees and other expenses that were supported, as compared to no reimbursements during the same periods in 2018; and
an increase in interest expense of $0.8 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, primarily related to: (i) the interest expense derived from the term loan entered into in February 2019; (ii) an increase in average net borrowings under the line of credit of $0.4 million and $31.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018; and (iii) a higher aggregate weighted-average interest rate for our line of credit of 4.00% as of June 30, 2019 , as compared to 3.69% as of June 30, 2018 .

ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE
Net Loss and Net Operating Income (“NOI”)
We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.9 million and $7.0 million , respectively, as compared to $1.0 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , NOI was $5.5 million and $10.0 million , respectively, as compared to $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , respectively. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and 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 six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 .
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

Table of Contents

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 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.

offered through our distribution reinvestment plan) of $13.4 million , or $1.48 per share, for the period from inception (August 12, 2014) to June 30, 2019 , are not indicative of future performance as we recently initiated the acquisition phase of our life cycle. 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. 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 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, or other investments, 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. 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 six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by approximately $3.1 million as compared to the same period in 2018 , due to growth in our property operations, partially offset by advisory fees and expense reimbursements paid to the Advisor and its affiliates. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by approximately $104.7 million as compared to the same period in 2018 due to our acquisition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2019 . Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased approximately $132.3 million as compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to an increase in net proceeds raised in our offering of $102.7 million , as well as an increase of $33.9 million in our net borrowing activity that was comprised of aggregate proceeds received of $260.0 million from borrowing under our line of credit and term loan, which was partially offset by repayments on our line of credit of $147.0 million .

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. On February 21, 2019, we amended and restated our existing $200.0 million credit facility to provide for a $200.0 million line of credit facility and the establishment of a $200.0 million term loan. We have the ability from time to time to increase the size of the credit facility by up to an additional $200.0 million for a total of up to $600.0 million, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of other conditions. Any increase to the size of the credit facility may be in the form of an increase in the aggregate revolving loan commitments, the establishment of a term loan, or a combination of both. As of June 30, 2019 , we had $142.0 million outstanding under our line of credit with an effective interest rate of 4.00% , and $90.0 million outstanding under our term loan with an effective interest rate of 3.65% . The unused portion under our line of credit was $57.9 million , and we had no amounts available as of June 30, 2019 . We also have the ability to borrow an additional $110.0 million under our term loan, of which $90.1 million was available as of June 30, 2019 . Our $200.0 million line of credit matures in September 2020 , and may be extended pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to continuing compliance with certain financial covenants and other customary conditions. Our $200.0 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. A pledge of equity interests in our subsidiaries that directly own unencumbered properties will be provided until such time as we elect to terminate such pledges, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants. Refer to “ Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ” for additional information regarding our line of credit and term loans.
LIBOR is expected to be discontinued after 2021. As of June 30, 2019, the term loan is our only indebtedness with a variable interest rate tied to LIBOR and a maturity beyond 2021. 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. 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 June 30, 2019 , we had property-level borrowings of approximately $49.3 million of principal outstanding with a weighted-average remaining term of 5.9 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 “ Note 5 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 our debt covenants as of June 30, 2019 .
Offering Proceeds. As of June 30, 2019 , aggregate gross proceeds raised since inception from our public and private offerings, including proceeds raised through our distribution reinvestment plan, were $388.2 million ( $354.9 million net of direct selling costs).
Distributions . We intend to continue to accrue and make distributions on a regular basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , approximately 9.2% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, and 90.8% of our total gross distributions were funded from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis; specifically 41.5% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash provided by expense support from the Advisor, and 49.3% 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 initial public offering. 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.

Table of Contents

For the third quarter of 2019 , 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 third quarter of 2019 , or July 31, 2019, August 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019 (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 third quarter of 2019 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.
The following table outlines sources used, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay total gross distributions (which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan) for the quarters ended as of the dates indicated below:

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 initial public offering.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $4.6 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 $8.2 million . For the six months ended June 30, 2018 , our cash flows provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis were $1.5 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 $1.3 million .
Refer to “ Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ” for further detail on our distributions.
Redemptions . For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we received eligible redemption requests for approximately 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 $1.0 million , or an average price of $9.99 per share. We had not redeemed any shares of our common stock and had not received any eligible requests for redemption pursuant to our share redemption program for the six months ended June 30, 2018 . See Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program,” for further description of our share redemption program.

As of August 6, 2019 , approximately $1.6 billion in shares of our common stock remained available for sale pursuant to our initial public offering in any combination of Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares, including approximately $492.6 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
395 Distribution Center . On August 5, 2019 , we acquired two industrial buildings located in the Reno market. The total purchase price was $53.9 million , exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs and other closing costs.
Acquisitions Under Contract
As of August 6, 2019 , we had entered into contracts to acquire properties with an aggregate contract purchase price of approximately $7.0 million , comprised of one industrial buildings. There can be no assurance that we will complete the acquisition of the properties under contract.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2018 was disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K. Except as otherwise disclosed in “ Note 5 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 2018 Form 10-K.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of June 30, 2019 , 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.
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 2018 Form 10-K. As of June 30, 2019 , our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2018 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 June 30, 2019 , our debt outstanding consisted of borrowings under our line of credit, term loan, mortgage notes and notes payable to investors in our private offering.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of June 30, 2019 , our fixed interest rate debt consisted of $49.3 million of principal borrowings under our mortgage notes and $0.4 million of notes payable issued pursuant to our private offering. The impact of interest rate fluctuations on our 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 June 30, 2019, the fair value and the carrying value of our fixed interest rate debt were $50.8 million and $49.7 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 June 30, 2019. Based on our debt as of June 30, 2019 , 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  June 30, 2019 , our variable interest rate debt consisted of $142.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit and  $90.0 million of borrowings under our term loan. Interest rate changes on our variable-rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of such debt. As of  June 30, 2019 , we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on  $232.0 million of borrowings. A hypothetical 10% change in the average interest rate on the outstanding balance of our variable interest rate debt as of  June 30, 2019 , would change our annual interest expense by approximately  $0.6 million .
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 June 30, 2019 . Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2019 , 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 six months ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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 2018 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in our 2018 Form 10-K 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 updates the risk factors disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K.
RISKS RELATED TO INVESTING IN OUR PUBLIC OFFERING
No rule or regulation requires that we calculate our NAV in a certain way, and our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, may adopt changes to the valuation procedures. In addition, because we do not include organization and offering expenses and acquisition expenses for which the Advisor has agreed to defer reimbursement in our calculation of NAV for a certain period of time, our NAV will be higher during the period of the deferral and may decrease once such deferral ends.
There are no existing rules or regulatory bodies that specifically govern the manner in which we calculate our NAV. As a result, it is important that our stockholders pay particular attention to the specific methodologies and assumptions we will use to calculate our NAV. Other public REITs may use different methodologies or assumptions to determine their NAV. In addition, each year our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, will review the appropriateness of our valuation procedures and may, at any time, adopt changes to the valuation procedures. For example, we do not currently include any enterprise value or real estate acquisition costs in our assets calculated for purposes of our NAV. If we acquire real property assets as a portfolio, we may pay a premium over the amount that we would pay for the assets individually. In addition, we will not include organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions, dealer manager fees and distribution fees) in our calculation of NAV for periods through December 31, 2019, but rather will amortize them to expense on a straight-line basis over the five years following December 31, 2019. Beginning January 1, 2020, all organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions, dealer manager fees and distribution fees, which will affect the NAV as indicated below) incurred, as well as those expenses incurred prior to January 1, 2020 which will be amortized, will reduce NAV as part of our estimated income and expense accruals. We have adopted this methodology due to the Advisor’s agreement to advance all such organization and offering expenses through December 31, 2019 and to be reimbursed by us for such advanced organization and offering expenses ratably over the sixty months following December 31, 2019. Similarly, for NAV calculation purposes, any acquisition expenses incurred or paid which have not been reimbursed to the Advisor will not reduce NAV for periods through December 31, 2019, but rather will be amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the eighteen months following December 31, 2019. Beginning January 1, 2020, all acquisition expenses incurred, as well as those expenses incurred prior to January 1, 2020, which will be amortized, will reduce NAV as part of our estimated income and expense accruals. We have adopted this methodology due to the Advisor’s agreement to defer reimbursement of all or a portion of acquisition expenses incurred or paid on our behalf if, in a given month, the reimbursement of acquisition expenses to the Advisor would cause the NAV per share to be lower than the lesser of $10.00 or the NAV per share calculated for the prior month, which we refer to as a shortfall. If the reimbursement would result in a shortfall, then the Advisor will defer reimbursement of acquisition expenses in the amount necessary to prevent a shortfall for such month. The Advisor will be reimbursed for any such unreimbursed acquisition expenses ratably over the eighteen months following December 31, 2019. Accordingly, during the period of the Advisor’s deferral of the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses and acquisition expenses, our NAV will be higher than it would otherwise be but for the deferral and may decrease once such deferral ends. Investors should consider this when determining to purchase shares of our common stock during the period of the deferral. As of June 30, 2019, the Advisor had incurred organization and offering expenses and acquisition expenses for which the Advisor had deferred reimbursement in an aggregate amount equal to $21.5 million. Our board of directors may change these or other aspects of our valuation procedures, which changes may have an adverse effect on our NAV and the price at which our stockholders may sell shares to us under our share redemption program. See our valuation procedures, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for more details regarding our valuation methodologies, assumptions and procedures.

RISKS RELATED TO THE ADVISOR AND ITS AFFILIATES
We compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor, for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire or sell investments, and for customers, which may have an adverse impact on our operations.
We compete with existing entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor and may compete with any such entity created in the future, as well as entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire, lease, finance or sell certain types of properties. We may also buy, finance or sell properties at the same time as these entities are buying, financing or selling properties. In this regard, there is a risk that we will purchase a property that provides lower returns to us than a property purchased by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor and entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services. Certain entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor own and/or manage properties in geographical areas in which we expect to own properties. Therefore, our properties may compete for customers with other properties owned and/or managed by these entities. The Advisor may face conflicts of interest when evaluating customer leasing opportunities for our properties and other properties owned and/or managed by these entities and these conflicts of interest may have a negative impact on our ability to attract and retain customers.
The Sponsor and the Advisor have implemented lease allocation guidelines to assist with the process of the allocation of leases when we and certain other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing certain advisory services have potentially competing properties with respect to a particular customer. Pursuant to the lease allocation guidelines, if we have an opportunity to bid on a lease with a prospective customer and one or more of these other entities has a potentially competing property, then, under certain circumstances, we may not be permitted to bid on the opportunity and in other circumstances, we and the other entities will be permitted to participate in the bidding process. The lease allocation guidelines are overseen by a joint management committee consisting of our management committee and certain other management representatives associated with other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing similar services.
Because affiliates of the Sponsor and the Advisor currently sponsor and in the future may advise other investment vehicles (each, an “Investment Vehicle”) with overlapping investment objectives, strategies and criteria, potential conflicts of interest may arise with respect to industrial real estate investment opportunities (“Industrial Investments”). In order to manage this potential conflict of interest, in allocating Industrial Investments among the Investment Vehicles, the Sponsor follows an allocation policy (the “Allocation Policy”) which currently provides that if the Sponsor or one of its affiliates is awarded and controls an Industrial Investment that is suitable for more than one Investment Vehicle, based upon various Allocation Factors (defined below), including without limitation availability of capital, portfolio objectives, diversification goals, target investment markets, return requirements, investment timing and the Investment Vehicle’s applicable approval discretion and timing, then the Industrial Investment will be allocated to Investment Vehicles on a rotational basis and will be offered to the Investment Vehicle at the top of the rotation list (that is, the Investment Vehicle that has gone the longest without being allocated an Industrial Investment). If an Investment Vehicle on the list declines the Industrial Investment, it will be rotated to the bottom of the rotation list. Exceptions may be made to the Allocation Policy for (x) transactions necessary to accommodate an exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or (y) characteristics of a particular Industrial Investment or Investment Vehicle, such as adjacency to an existing asset, legal, regulatory or tax concerns or benefits, portfolio balancing or other Allocation Factors listed below, which make the Industrial Investment more advantageous to one of the Investment Vehicles. In addition, the Sponsor may from time to time specify that it will not seek new allocations for more than one Investment Vehicle until certain minimum allocation levels are reached.
The Sponsor may from time to time grant to certain Investment Vehicles certain exclusivity, rotation or other priority (each, a “Special Priority”) with respect to Industrial Investments or other investment opportunities. Current existing Special Priorities have been granted to: (i) Build-to-Core Industrial Partnership III LLC (“BTC III”), pursuant to which BTC III will be presented one out of every three qualifying development Industrial Investments (subject to the terms and conditions of the BTC III partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments thereunder have been fully committed; (ii) Black Creek Industrial Fund LP (“BCIF”) pursuant to which BCIF will be presented one out of every three potential development Industrial Investments, one out of every five potential value-add Industrial Investments, and one out of every three potential core Industrial Investments (subject to terms and conditions of the BCIF partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments accepted by BCIF on or prior to March 31, 2020 have been called or committed.; and (iii) the BTC II Partnership pursuant to which the BTC II Partnership will be presented one out of every three qualifying development Industrial Investments (subject to terms and conditions of the BTC II Partnership agreement) until such time as capital commitments thereunder have been fully committed. The Sponsor or its affiliates may grant additional special priorities in the future and from time to time. In addition, to the extent that a potential conflict of interest arises with respect to an investment opportunity other than an Industrial Investment, the Sponsor currently expects to manage the potential conflict of interest by allocating the

32

Table of Contents

investment in accordance with the principles of the Allocation Policy the Sponsor follows with respect to Industrial Investments.
“Allocation Factors” are those factors that the Sponsor maintains and updates from time to time based on review by the Sponsor’s Head of Real Estate. Current examples of Allocation Factors include:
Overall investment objectives, strategy and criteria, including product type and style of investing (for example, core, core plus, value-add and opportunistic);
The general real property sector or debt investment allocation targets of each program and any targeted geographic concentration;
The cash requirements of each program;
The strategic proximity of the investment opportunity to other assets;
The effect of the acquisition on diversification of investments, including by type of property, geographic area, customers, size and risk;
The policy of each program relating to leverage of investments;
The effect of the acquisition on loan maturity profile;
The effect on lease expiration profile;
Customer concentration;
The effect of the acquisition on ability to comply with any restrictions on investments and indebtedness contained in applicable governing documents, SEC filings, contracts or applicable law or regulation;
The effect of the acquisition on the applicable entity’s intention not to be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act;
Legal considerations, such as Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (“FIRPTA”), that may be applicable to specific investment platforms;
The financial attributes of the investment opportunity;
Availability of financing;
Cost of capital;
Ability to service any debt associated with the investment opportunity;
Risk return profiles;
Targeted distribution rates;
Anticipated future pipeline of suitable investments;
Expected holding period of the investment opportunity and the applicable entity’s remaining term;
Whether the applicable entity still is in its fundraising and acquisition stage, or has substantially invested the proceeds from its fundraising stage;
Whether the applicable entity was formed for the purpose of making a particular type of investment;
Affiliate and/or related party considerations;
The anticipated cash flow of the applicable entity and the asset;
Tax effects of the acquisition, including on REIT or partnership qualifications;
The size of the investment opportunity; and
The amount of funds available to each program and the length of time such funds have been available for investment.
The Sponsor may modify its overall allocation policies from time to time. Any changes to the Sponsor’s allocation policies will be timely reported to our Conflicts Resolution Committee. The Advisor will be required to provide information to our board of directors on a quarterly basis to enable our board of directors, including the independent directors, to determine whether such policies are being fairly applied.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Use of Proceeds
On February 18, 2016, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-200594), pursuant to which we are making our initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of common stock, was declared effective under the Securities Act and our initial public offering commenced the same day. Our initial public offering is a continuous offering that was initially expected to end no later than February 18, 2019. On January 4, 2019, we filed a new registration statement for the offering of up to $2.0 billion in Class T shares, Class W shares and Class I shares of common stock, consisting of up to $1.5 billion offered in the primary offering and up to $500.0 million offered under the distribution reinvestment plan. We may reallocate amounts between the primary offering and distribution reinvestment plan. This new registration statement is not yet effective and our initial public offering will continue until the time that such registration statement becomes effective.
The table below summarizes the gross offering proceeds raised from our initial public offering, including shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan; the direct selling costs incurred by certain of our affiliates on our behalf in connection with the issuance and distribution of our registered securities; and the offering proceeds net of those direct selling costs.

The selling commissions and dealer manager fees were payable to the Dealer Manager. A substantial portion of the commissions and fees were reallowed by the Dealer Manager to participating broker dealers as commissions and marketing fees and expenses.
(2)
This amount excludes the distribution fees paid to the Dealer Manager, all or a portion of which are reallowed by the Dealer Manager to participating broker dealers or broker dealers servicing accounts of investors who own Class T shares or Class W shares, referred to as servicing broker dealers. The distribution fees are not paid from and do not reduce offering proceeds, but rather they reduce the distributions payable to stockholders with respect to Class T shares and Class W shares.
As of June 30, 2019 , we owned and managed 34 buildings totaling approximately  5.7 million  square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately  $605.3 million , exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, and other closing costs.
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

34

Table of Contents

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 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% 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 4.3 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.

Sellers shall cause Title Company to deliver to Buyer the Preliminary Title Reports. Buyer shall notify Sellers in writing (the “ Title Notice ”) prior to 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on Wednesday, May 15, 2019 (the period beginning on the Access Acceptance Date and ending at such time is referred to herein as the “ Title Review Period ”) as to which matters, if any, within the Preliminary Title Reports and which matters shown on the Surveys (or any update thereof) are not acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion (individually, a “ Disapproved Title Matter ”). Any matter within the Preliminary Title Reports, the Surveys, and any matter that would be disclosed by a current, accurate survey of the Land and the Improvements that Buyer fails to so disapprove in a Title Notice delivered prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period shall be conclusively deemed to have been approved by Buyer. If Buyer timely delivers a Title Notice indicating a Disapproved Title Matter, then Sellers shall have three (3) business days after receipt of such Title Notice to elect to notify Buyer in writing (a “ Title Response Notice ”) that Sellers either (a) will in good faith attempt to remove such Disapproved Title Matter from title to the applicable Property on or before the Closing, or (b) elects not to cause such Disapproved Title Matter to be removed from title to the applicable Property. If Sellers fail to deliver a Title Response Notice as to a particular Disapproved Title Matter within such three (3) business day period, then Sellers shall be deemed to have made the election in clause (b) above as to such Disapproved Title Matter. Prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, the procurement by Sellers of a written commitment from Title Company to issue the “Owner’s Policy” (as hereinafter defined), or an endorsement thereto insuring Buyer against any Disapproved Title Matter at Closing, shall be deemed the removal of such Disapproved Title Matter from title to the applicable Property, provided that such endorsement shall be satisfactory to Buyer in its sole discretion, and shall be issued at Sellers’ sole cost and expense. If Sellers make (or are deemed to have made) the election in clause (b) above as to any Disapproved Title Matter, then Buyer shall

9


have until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, within which to notify Sellers in writing that Buyer elects to either (x) nevertheless proceed with the purchase and take title to the Properties subject to such Disapproved Title Matter, or (y) terminate this Agreement. If Buyer makes the election set forth in clause (y) above, then this Agreement shall immediately terminate, Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, which shall be paid to Sellers), and Sellers and Buyer shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the provisions hereof that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Buyer fails to notify Sellers in writing of its election prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have made the election set forth in clause (x) above.
4.5.2      Additional Title Matters. Approval by Buyer of any additional title exceptions, defects, encumbrances or other title matters first disclosed in writing after the end of the Title Review Period (“ Additional Title Matters ”) shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations to purchase the Properties (Buyer hereby agreeing that its approval of such Additional Title Matters shall be subject to Buyer’s approval in its sole and absolute discretion). Unless Buyer gives written notice (“ Title Disapproval Notice ”) that it disapproves any Additional Title Matters, stating the Additional Title Matters so disapproved, before the sooner to occur of the Closing or five (5) days after receipt of written notice of such Additional Title Matters, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such Additional Title Matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if Buyer receives notice of an Additional Title Matter on or after the date which is two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date, then either party shall have the option to extend the Closing for three (3) additional business days to allow the parties sufficient time to review such Additional Title Matter provided that the party requesting such extension of the Closing delivers to the other party written notice of such extension within one (1) business day of receipt of the Additional Title Matter. Sellers shall have until the Closing within which to remove the disapproved Additional Title Matters set forth therein from title or obtain from Title Company a commitment to issue an endorsement affirmatively insuring against such items in a form acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s commercially reasonable discretion, at no cost or expense to Buyer (Sellers having the right but not the obligation to do so). The procurement by Sellers of a written commitment from Title Company to issue the Owner’s Policy, or an endorsement thereto insuring Buyer against the disapproved Additional Title Matter at Closing, shall be deemed the removal of such disapproved Additional Title Matter from title to the applicable Property, provided that such endorsement shall be to Buyer’s commercially reasonable satisfaction, and shall be issued at Sellers’ sole cost and expense. In the event Sellers determine at any time that it is unable or unwilling to remove any one or more of such disapproved Additional Title Matters, Sellers shall give written notice to Buyer to such effect; in such event, Buyer may, at its option, terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Sellers but only if given prior to the sooner to occur of the Closing or five (5) days after Buyer receives Sellers’ notice, in which case this Agreement shall immediately terminate, the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, which shall be paid to Sellers), shall be returned to Buyer, and Sellers and Buyer

10


shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the provisions hereof that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give such termination notice by such date, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its objection to, and to have approved, the matters set forth in Sellers’ notice.
4.5.3      Exceptions to Title. Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Properties is subject to the condition precedent that, at the Closing, Title Company shall be willing to issue the Owner’s Policy effective upon the Closing. Buyer shall be obligated to accept title to the Properties, subject to the following exceptions to title (the “ Permitted Exceptions ”):
(a)      Real estate taxes and assessments not yet delinquent;
(b)      The printed exceptions, if any, which appear in a 2006 ALTA extended coverage form Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance issued by Title Company in the State of Nevada;
(c)      The Leases; and
(d)      Such other exceptions to title or survey exceptions as may be approved or deemed approved by Buyer pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 4.5 or otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement, or any exceptions resulting from the actions (or inactions) of Buyer or its agents or representatives.
Conclusive evidence of the availability of such title shall be the willingness of Title Company to issue to Buyer on the Closing Date a 2006 ALTA extended form Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance issued by Title Company in the State of Nevada (or policies if Buyer elects to obtain a policy for each Property) (collectively, the “ Owner’s Policy ”), in the face amount of the Purchase Price, which policy shall show (i) title to the Land and Improvements to be vested of record in Buyer, and (ii) the Permitted Exceptions to be the only exceptions to title; provided, however, if Buyer fails to fulfill Title Company’s conditions required for issuance of such Owner’s Policy, including but not limited to delivery of a current ALTA survey, then the condition precedent described in this Section 4.5.3 shall be deemed satisfied if Title Company shall be willing to issue a ALTA standard coverage form Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance upon or following the Closing. In connection with obtaining coverage over survey matters under any ALTA form of Owner’s Policy, Buyer shall deliver to Title Company prior to the Closing Date a current ALTA survey certified by a licensed surveyor in the State of Nevada sufficient to permit or cause Title Company to insure against survey matters at the Closing. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the Closing Documents, any or all of the Permitted Exceptions may be omitted by Sellers in the “Deeds” (as hereinafter defined) without giving rise to any liability of the applicable Sellers, irrespective of any covenant or warranty of such Seller that may be contained or implied in the Deeds (which provisions of this sentence shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein).

11


Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Sellers agree that it will remove all Liens (other than non-delinquent taxes) expressly caused or permitted by Sellers, or insure or endorse over any other Liens (other than non-delinquent taxes); provided however, any insurance or endorsement over a Lien shall be to Buyer’s commercially reasonable satisfaction if Sellers did not expressly cause or permit such Lien, and to Buyer’s sole satisfaction if Sellers expressly caused or permitted such Lien.
4.5.4      Endorsements to Owner’s Policy. It is understood that Buyer may request a number of endorsements to the Owner’s Policy. Buyer shall satisfy itself prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period whether Title Company will be willing to issue such endorsements at the Closing and the issuance of such endorsements shall not be a condition to the Closing.
4.6      Due Diligence Reviews. Except for title matters and matters shown on the Surveys (which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.5 above), and subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, Buyer shall have until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period within which to perform and complete all of Buyer’s due diligence examinations, reviews and inspections of all matters pertaining to the purchase of the Properties, including all engineering and environmental reports and all leases, license agreements and service contracts, sewer/water conditions, utilities service information, zoning information, access information, assessments and city fees, developmental conditions and approvals, operating expenses and legal, physical, environmental and compliance matters and conditions regarding the Properties (the foregoing being collectively called the “ Property Information ”).

4.6.1      Review Standards. Buyer shall at all times conduct its due diligence reviews, inspections and examinations (and shall cause its consultants’ and other third parties’ reviews, inspections and examinations performed for or at the request of Buyer to be conducted) in a manner so as to not cause liability, damage, lien, loss, cost or expense to Sellers or the Properties and so as to not unreasonably interfere with or disturb any tenant or Sellers’ operation of the Properties. Buyer will indemnify, defend, and hold Sellers, their respective members, partners, employees, manager, agents, officers, directors, shareholders, fiduciaries, attorneys, licensees, contractors, brokers, invitees, tenants and the Properties harmless from and against any such liability, damage, lien, loss, cost or expense (except to the extent arising from the mere discovery of any pre-existing condition at the Properties or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sellers). Prior to entry upon the Properties, Buyer shall provide Sellers with copies of certificates of insurance in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Access Agreement that shall be maintained by Buyer and each consultant which Buyer will have present on the Properties in connection with its investigations upon the Properties. Without limitation on the foregoing, in no event shall Buyer: (a) conduct any intrusive physical testing (environmental, structural or otherwise) at the Properties (such as soil borings, water samplings or the like) or take physical samples from the Properties without Sellers’ express, prior written consent, which consent, as to such intrusive physical testing or sampling, may be given or withheld in Sellers’ sole discretion (and Buyer shall in all events promptly restore the Properties to substantially the same condition existing immediately prior to such entry (provided, however, Buyer shall have no obligation to repair any damage caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sellers or to restore any pre-existing latent defect or condition unless Buyer exacerbated such pre-existing latent defect or condition in violation of this Agreement)) and which consent to intrusive physical testing or sampling, may be further conditioned upon, among other things, Sellers’ approval of the following: (i) the insurance coverage of the contractor who will be conducting such testing or sampling, (ii) the scope and nature of the testing or sampling to be performed by such contractor, and (iii) a written confidentiality agreement by such contractor in form reasonably satisfactory to Sellers; (b) contact any consultant or other professional engaged by Sellers or Tenant (or its representatives) without Sellers’ express, prior

13


written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); or (c) contact any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over the Properties, other than ordinary contact normally associated with routine due diligence examinations that does not involve any discussions with governmental officials or applications of any kind, with the express understanding that Buyer shall not undertake any discussions or communications with any governmental officials without (i) Sellers’ express, prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld in Sellers’ sole and absolute discretion for any reason or no reason, and (ii) participation by a representative of Sellers. Without limitation of the foregoing, Buyer shall not be permitted to contact tenants of the Properties without giving Sellers (i) advance written notice, and (ii) the opportunity to have a representative of Sellers participate in any such communications. Sellers shall have the right, at its option, to cause a representative of Sellers to be present at all inspections, reviews and examinations conducted hereunder. Buyer shall schedule any entry (by it or its designees) onto the Properties in advance with Sellers, upon not less than twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice (written or e-mail) to Sellers or their authorized representative. Buyer shall keep the Properties free and clear of all mechanics’, materialmen’s and other liens resulting from the due diligence examinations or any of its other work under this Agreement. Buyer shall remove or bond over any liens within ten (10) days after Buyer becomes aware of the same. Upon the completion of any inspection, review or examination, Buyer shall promptly restore the Properties to substantially the same condition existing immediately prior to Buyer’s conducting such inspection, review or examination, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, Buyer shall have no obligation to repair any damage caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sellers or to restore any pre-existing latent defect or condition unless Buyer exacerbated such pre-existing latent defect or condition in violation of this Agreement. In the event of any termination hereunder (other than by reason of Sellers’ default), Buyer shall return all documents and other materials furnished by Sellers hereunder and at Sellers’ written request, then Buyer shall promptly deliver to Sellers true, accurate and complete copies of any draft or final written reports relating to the Properties prepared for or on behalf of Buyer by any third party without any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such documents, all at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer shall not be required to provide, copy or make available to Sellers any internal memoranda, appraisals and valuation reports and similar information or information covered by the attorney-client privilege. The Access Agreement is hereby incorporated by this reference and shall apply to this Agreement; provided, however, to the extent that the terms and conditions of the Access Agreement conflicts with this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Buyer shall be responsible to Sellers for any breaches of the Access Agreement by any person or entity to whom information or access to the Properties was given by or through Buyer as though the breach were committed by Buyer itself. This Section 4.6.1 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

14


4.6.2      Termination Right. Prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer may in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, terminate this Agreement by written notice to Sellers (such notice being herein called the “ Termination Notice ”), whereupon this Agreement, and the obligations of the parties hereunder, shall terminate (and no party hereto shall have any further obligation in connection herewith except under those provisions that expressly survive a termination of this Agreement), One Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($100.00) of the Deposit shall be paid to Sellers as independent consideration for this Agreement (the “ Independent Consideration ”), and the balance of the Deposit shall be delivered to Buyer. In the event that Buyer shall fail to have delivered the Termination Notice to Sellers before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have no further right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.6 .
4.7      Tenant Estoppel Certificates. It shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to acquire the Properties hereunder that Sellers obtain and deliver estoppel certificates (“ Tenant Estoppel Certificates ”), in the form required under Section 4.7.1 below, from (i) at the Eldorado Property: (A) Fabrication Technologies, Inc. (B) Solotech (USA), Inc. and (C) Specialty Color Corp., Inc., (ii) at the Cameron Property: (A) WorldPac, Inc., (B) Tellworks Communications, Inc., (C) Preferred Laminations, LLC, (D) Walker Zanger, Inc. and (D) Sunbay Supplies LLC (the tenants identified in (i) and (ii) are collectively, the “ Required Tenants ”), (iii) tenants occupying at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the rentable square feet of the Eldorado Property, in the aggregate, actually rented to tenants of the Eldorado Property as of the Effective Date (the “ Eldorado Estoppel Threshold ”), and (iv) tenants occupying at least seventy percent (70%) of the rentable square feet of the Cameron Property, in the aggregate, actually rented to tenants of the Cameron Property as of the Effective Date (the “ Cameron Estoppel Threshold ”). The rentable square footage of space leased by Required Tenants shall be included in the calculation of the Eldorado Estoppel Threshold and the Cameron Estoppel Threshold, respectively, and the delivery of an estoppel certificate from the Required Tenants in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.7 shall be applied towards the satisfaction of the Eldorado Estoppel Threshold and the Cameron Estoppel Threshold, respectively. If such condition is not satisfied (or waived by Buyer), on or before 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on the date which is two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date (the “ Estoppel Condition Deadline Date ”), then (a) either Buyer or Sellers shall each have the right to extend the Estoppel Condition Deadline Date for up to fifteen (15) days after the scheduled Closing Date (the “ Extended Estoppel Condition Deadline Date ”) by providing written notice thereof to the other party on or before 3:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Estoppel Condition Deadline Date, in order to allow Sellers sufficient time to satisfy this condition precedent to the Closing, and upon the timely satisfaction (or waiver by Buyer) of such condition, the Closing shall occur two (2) business days after satisfaction of the condition set forth in this Section 4.7 (the “ Extended Closing Date ”), or (b) if neither Buyer nor Sellers have timely elected to extend the Estoppel Condition Deadline Date and the Closing Date as provided in (a) above, then Buyer shall have the

15


right to terminate this Agreement by written notice given prior to 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Estoppel Condition Deadline Date, in which case this Agreement shall terminate and Buyer shall be entitled to a refund of the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, which shall be paid to Sellers), and no party hereto shall have any further obligation under this Agreement except under those provisions that expressly survive a termination of this Agreement.
4.7.1      The Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall be substantially in (a) the form required under the applicable tenant’s Lease (including specific limitations set forth in such Lease which limit the scope of the information required to be provided by such tenant in any Tenant Estoppel Certificate to be provided by such tenant), or (b) the form estoppel certificate attached hereto as Exhibit D , modified, as applicable, to comply with any provisions in the applicable tenant’s Lease that pertain to estoppel certificates; provided, however, that the form may also be the standard form generally used by the applicable tenant so long as such standard form complies with the applicable tenant’s Lease; provided further, however, if Sellers receive from a tenant such standard form prior to such tenant’s execution thereof, then Buyer shall have the right to reasonably approve of such form. In addition, any provisions of the estoppel certificate (or comparable certificate or statement) regarding defaults, defenses, disputes, environmental matters, claims, offsets, credits, abatements, concessions and recaptures against rent and other charges may be limited to the actual knowledge of a tenant. Buyer’s failure to object to a Tenant Estoppel Certificate (or any information or provision therein) by written notice to Sellers given within three (3) days after Buyer’s receipt thereof (but not later than the Closing Date) shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s acceptance and approval thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer may not object to (A) any matter adverse to the Properties, in any material respect, (B) any objectionable information or provision contained in a Tenant Estoppel Certificate or (C) any uncompleted obligations or defaults by landlord or tenant unless such obligations or defaults will be completed prior to Closing or credited to Buyer at Closing, provided that in all instances described in clauses (A), (B) or (C), such matter, information or provision was (i) set forth in the Leases, (ii) disclosed in the Due Diligence Materials, or (iii) actually known to Buyer prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (as such knowledge is defined in Section 7.4.2 herein).
4.7.2      Sellers shall utilize commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Tenant Estoppel Certificates. As used in this Agreement, “ commercially reasonable efforts ” shall not include any obligation to institute or threaten legal proceedings, to declare or threaten to declare any person in default, to incur any liabilities, to expend any monies or to cause any other person to do any of the same.
4.8      Leases for Required Tenants . It shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to acquire the Properties hereunder that (i) the Required Tenants, (ii) tenants occupying at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the rentable square feet of the Eldorado Property, in the aggregate, actually rented to tenants of the Eldorado Property as of the Closing Date (the “ Eldorado

16


Occupancy Threshold ”), and (iii) tenants occupying at least seventy percent (70%) of the rentable square feet of the Cameron Property, in the aggregate, actually rented to tenants of the Cameron Property as of the Closing Date (the “ Cameron Occupancy Threshold ”), shall not have terminated, or given written notice of its intent, to terminate their respective Leases pursuant to the terms of such Leases or otherwise. The rentable square footage of space leased by Required Tenants shall be included in the calculation of the Eldorado Occupancy Threshold and the Cameron Occupancy Threshold, respectively, and the continued effectiveness of the leases by the Required Tenants shall be applied towards the satisfaction of the Eldorado Occupancy Threshold and the Cameron Occupancy Threshold, respectively. In addition, the Required Tenants and the tenants necessary to satisfy the Eldorado Occupancy Threshold and the Cameron Occupancy Threshold, respectively, shall not have vacated the applicable Property, abandoned such Property or filed for bankruptcy or be subject to an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding.
5.      Closing Procedure . The closing (the “ Closing ”) of the sale and purchase herein provided shall occur on the Closing Date.
5.1      Escrow. The Closing shall be accomplished pursuant to escrow instructions (the “ Escrow Agreement ”) among Buyer, Sellers and Escrow Agent in the form of Exhibit E , which Buyer and Sellers shall execute concurrently herewith, and any supplemental escrow instructions provided by Buyer or Sellers as may be permitted by the terms of the Escrow Agreement (so long as the material terms of this Agreement shall control in the event of any inconsistencies).

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, accountants and other professionals.
5.4      Prorations .
5.4.1      Items to be Prorated. The initial prorations and payments provided for in this Section 5.4 shall be made at the Closing on the basis of the Closing Statement, which shall be prepared by Title Company, as approved by Sellers and submitted to Buyer for its review and approval at least two (2) Business days prior to the Closing. The following shall be prorated between Sellers and Buyer as of the Closing Date (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over the applicable period), with Buyer being deemed to be the owner of the Properties during the entire day on the Closing Date, and entitled to receive all operating income of the Properties, and obligated to pay all operating expenses of the Properties, with respect to the Closing Date:
(a)      All non-delinquent real estate and personal property taxes and assessments on the Properties for the current tax year. Sellers shall be responsible for the payment of any real estate and personal property taxes that are delinquent before the Closing or that are attributable to the period prior to the Closing. For example, if the Closing Date is May 27, 2019, then Sellers shall be responsible for the real estate and personal property taxes and assessments on the Properties for the 2018-2019 tax year through and including May 26, 2019 regardless of when said taxes are due and payable. In no event shall Sellers be charged with or be responsible for any increase in the taxes on the Properties resulting

20


from the sale of the Properties contemplated by this Agreement, any change in use of the Properties on or after the Closing Date, or from any improvements made or leases entered into on or after the Closing Date. If any assessments on the Properties are payable in installments, then the installment allocable to the current period shall be prorated (with Buyer being allocated the obligation to pay any installments due after the Closing Date).
(b)      All fixed and additional rentals under the Leases, security deposits (except as hereinafter provided) and other tenant charges. Sellers shall deliver or provide a credit in an amount equal to all prepaid rentals for periods after the Closing Date and all refundable cash security deposits (to the extent the foregoing were made by tenants under the Leases and are not applied or forfeited prior to the Closing) to Buyer on the Closing Date; it being agreed, however, that Sellers shall notify Buyer in writing if it applies any security deposit prior to the Closing, and from and after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Sellers shall not apply any security deposit without obtaining Buyer’s prior consent which consent Buyer may withhold in Buyer’s sole discretion. Rents that are delinquent (or payable but unpaid) as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated on the Closing Date. Rather, Buyer shall cause any such delinquent rent (or payable but unpaid rent) for the period prior to the Closing to be remitted to Sellers if, as and when collected. At the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a schedule of all such delinquent or payable but unpaid rent. Additionally, there shall be no proration of any rent that a tenant under a Lease delivers to either Buyer or Sellers and that such tenant has identified, at the time of such delivery, as constituting payment or rent due for a month or other period prior to the month in which the Closing occurs (“ Identified Pre-Closing Rent ”). If Buyer receives any such Identified Pre-Closing Rent, Buyer shall cause such Identified Pre-Closing Rent to be remitted to Sellers if, as, and when collected. Until the date that is six (6) months after the Closing, Buyer shall include such delinquencies (or unpaid amounts) in its normal billing and shall pursue the collection thereof in good faith after the Closing Date (but Buyer shall not be required to litigate or declare a default under any Lease or pursue any other action or remedy in connection with the recovery from tenants of such delinquencies or other unpaid amounts). To the extent that Buyer or Sellers receives payment of rents (or other income of any kinds whatsoever in connection with other Tenant charges) on or after the Closing Date other than Identified Pre-Closing Rent, such payments shall be applied first toward the rent (or other tenant charge) for the month in which the Closing occurs then to the rent (or other tenant charge) owed to Buyer in connection with the applicable Lease or other document for which such payments are received, and then to any delinquent rents (or other tenant charges) owed to Sellers, with a party’s share thereof being promptly delivered to such party; provided, however, that any year-end or similar reconciliation payment shall be allocated as hereinafter provided. Buyer may not waive any delinquent (or unpaid) rents or modify a Lease so as to reduce or otherwise affect amounts owed thereunder for any period in which Sellers are

21


entitled to receive a share of charges or amounts without first obtaining Sellers’ written consent. Sellers hereby reserve the right to pursue any remedy for damages against any tenant owing delinquent rents and any other amounts to Sellers (but following the Closing shall not be entitled to terminate any Lease or any tenant’s right to possession), provided that, Sellers shall not exercise any such remedy for a period of six (6) months after the Closing except in connection with the recovery from tenants of taxes or assessments relating to any period prior to the Closing Date (the “ Pre-Closing Tax Collection Remedies ”). Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers, at no material out-of-pocket cost to Buyer, in any collection efforts hereunder, including Sellers’ Pre-Closing Tax Collection Remedies, but shall not be required to litigate or declare a default under any Lease. With respect to delinquent or other uncollected rents and any other amounts or other rights of any kind regarding tenants who are no longer tenants of the Properties as of the Closing Date, Sellers shall retain all of the rights relating thereto.
(c)      Payments required to be paid by tenants under Leases for such tenants’ shares of property taxes and assessments, insurance, common area maintenance and other expenses of the Properties are collectively referred to herein as “ Reimbursable Tenant Expenses .” Reimbursable Tenant Expenses shall be determined in accordance with the Leases, including any Lease provisions that provide for the adjustment of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses based on occupancy changes ( i.e., “gross-up” provisions). Sellers’ “share” of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs (the “ Closing Year ”) shall be determined in accordance with Section 5.4.4(a) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no proration of any such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses that are delinquent as of the Closing. Rather, until the date that is six (6) months after the Closing, Buyer shall include such delinquencies (or unpaid amounts) in its normal billing and shall pursue the collection thereof in good faith after the Closing Date (but Buyer shall not be required to litigate or declare a default under any Lease or pursue any other action or remedy in connection with the recovery from tenants of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses relating to any period prior to the Closing Date).
(d)      All amounts payable under any Service Agreements (to the extent assumed by Buyer and subject to the terms of Section 7.5.2 below); reimbursements and recoveries of water, sewer and trash charges under the Leases; annual permits and/or inspection fees (calculated on the basis of the period covered); and any other expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Properties.
(e)      Any other items of operating income or operating expense that are customarily apportioned between the parties in real estate closings of comparable commercial properties in the metropolitan area where the Properties are located, as applicable; however, there will be no prorations for debt service, insurance premiums or

22


payroll (because Buyer is not acquiring or assuming Sellers’ financing, insurance or employees).
5.4.2      Utilities. To the extent not in a tenant’s name, Buyer shall transfer all utilities to its name as of the Closing Date, and where necessary, post deposits with the utility companies. To the extent not in a tenant’s name, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all utility meters to be read as of the Closing Date. Sellers shall be entitled to recover any and all deposits held in Sellers’ name by any utility company as of the Closing Date. To the extent not in a tenant’s name, all charges for utilities for which the meters cannot be read or amounts ascertained at Closing shall be prorated outside of the escrow contemplated herein within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.
5.4.3      Leasing Costs. Sellers shall be responsible for all Leasing Costs that are payable by reason of (a) the execution of the Leases prior to the Effective Date, (b) the renewal, extension, expansion of, or the exercise of any other option under, the Leases, prior to the Effective Date, and (c) amendments of the Leases entered into prior to the Effective Date. If the Closing occurs, Sellers hereby agree to provide Buyer with a credit at the Closing in an amount equal to those Leasing Costs expressly set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto which have not been paid as of the Closing Date. If the Closing occurs, Buyer shall be responsible for the payment (or, in the case of any amounts paid prior to the Closing, the reimbursement to Sellers) of all other Leasing Costs which are not the responsibility of Sellers hereunder, including (A) all Leasing Costs that become due and payable (whether before or after the Closing) as a result of (1) any Leases entered into during the Escrow Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (“ New Leases ”), (2) amendments entered into during the Escrow Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to renew, extend, expand or otherwise amend the Leases or New Leases, or (3) any renewals, extensions or expansions of, or the exercise of any other option under, the Leases or New Leases exercised by tenants during the Escrow Period; and (B) all Leasing Costs as a result of renewals, extensions, expansions, or the exercise of any other option, occurring on or after the Closing Date of any Leases. Except as expressly set forth set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, Buyer shall assume the economic effect of any “free rent” or other concessions pertaining to the period from and after the Effective Date. Except as expressly set forth set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, if, as of the Closing Date, Sellers shall have paid any Leasing Costs, including absorbing any free rent as owner of the Properties during the Escrow Period, for which Buyer is responsible pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Buyer shall reimburse Sellers therefor at the Closing provided that Sellers provides Buyer with reasonable notice of such amounts prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Sellers shall pay (or cause to be paid), prior to the Closing, or credit Buyer at the Closing (to the extent unpaid) all Leasing Costs for which Sellers are responsible pursuant to the foregoing provisions, and (subject to the reimbursement obligations set forth above) Sellers shall pay (or cause to be paid) when due all Leasing Costs payable during the

23


Escrow Period. For purposes hereof, the term “ Escrow Period ” shall mean the period from the Effective Date until the Closing Date.
5.4.4      Proration of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses .
(a)      For the Closing Year. In order to enable Buyer to make any reconciliations of tenant reimbursements of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for the portion of the Closing Year during which Sellers owned the Properties, Sellers shall determine in accordance with Section 5.4.1(c) above the Reimbursable Tenant Expenses actually paid or incurred by Sellers for the portion of the Closing Year during which Sellers owned the Properties (“ Sellers’ Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses ”) and the tenant reimbursements for such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses actually paid to Sellers by tenants for the portion of the Closing Year during which Sellers owned the Properties (“ Sellers’ Actual Tenant Reimbursements ”). Without limitation on Section 5.4.6 below, on or before the date that is three (3) months after the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer for Buyer’s review and approval, a proposed reconciliation statement (a “ Sellers’ Reconciliation Statement ”) for the Properties setting forth (i) Sellers’ Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses, (ii) Sellers’ Actual Tenant Reimbursements, and (iii) a calculation of the difference between the two ( i.e., establishing that Sellers’ Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses were either more or less than Sellers’ Actual Tenant Reimbursements).

10.2.2      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) if the Closing of the transactions hereunder shall have occurred, Sellers shall have no liability to Buyer (and Buyer shall make no claim against Sellers) for a breach of any representation or warranty or any other covenant, agreement or obligation of Sellers, or for indemnification, under this Agreement or any Closing Document executed by Sellers in connection with this Agreement, unless (i) the valid claims for all such breaches and indemnifications collectively aggregate to more than FIFTY THOUSAND AND No/100 DOLLARS ($50,000.00) (provided, however, that if such valid claims do exceed $50,000.00 in the aggregate, Sellers shall only be responsible for that portion of the claim over $50,000.00), and (ii) the liability of Eldorado under this Agreement and such documents shall not exceed, in the aggregate, an amount equal three percent (3%) of the Eldorado Purchase Price (the “ Eldorado Liability Cap ”), and (iii) the liability of Cameron under this Agreement and such documents shall not exceed, in the aggregate, an amount equal three percent (3%) of the Cameron Purchase Price (the “ Cameron Liability Cap ”); provided, however, the Eldorado Liability Cap and the Cameron Liability Cap shall not apply to any amounts due for reproration under Section 5.4.6 hereof for the Eldorado Property and the Cameron Property, respectively, any indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof or the Leasing Costs for which Eldorado and Cameron, as applicable, are expressly responsible pursuant to Section 5.4.3 hereof; and (b) in no event shall Sellers be liable for any consequential or punitive damages. In connection with any action alleging

37


a breach of any warranty of title in the Deed, Buyer agrees that it shall in good faith pursue Title Company under its title policy(ies) with respect to any claim relating to the warranty of title under the Deed prior to bringing an action against Sellers provided that the foregoing obligation in no way invalidates the Owner’s Policy. For six (6) months following the Closing Date, Sellers shall maintain access to funds so as to have the ability to satisfy any post-closing obligations that it may have hereunder.
10.2.3      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.2 , Buyer understands that each Seller has an interest in only its Property and each Seller shall be severally (but not (i) jointly or (ii) jointly and severally) obligated to Buyer under or in connection with this Agreement or any document executed in connection herewith, and only to the extent that the obligations contained in this Agreement or such other documents relate to such Seller or the portion of the Property owned by such Seller (and shall not be obligated to the extent that any such obligations relate to the portion of the Property not owned by such Seller). Without limitation on the foregoing, the closing costs and prorations provided for in Sections 5.3 and 5.4 shall be allocated separately among the Property owned by each Seller.
10.2.4      The limitations of liability contained in this Section 10.2 are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation on liability provided elsewhere in this Agreement or by Law or by any other contract, agreement or instrument.
10.3      Schedules and Exhibits; Entire Agreement; Modification.

38


consultation, have reviewed and revised this Agreement. As such, the terms of this Agreement shall be fairly construed and the usual rule of construction, to the effect that any ambiguities herein should be resolved against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or exhibits hereto or thereto.

A.    Earnest Money.

Within three (3) business days following the mutual execution of this Agreement (the “Earnest Money Deadline”), Purchaser shall deposit $2,000,000 (the "Earnest Money") with the Title Company. The Earnest Money shall be held by the Title Company in accordance with the terms hereof and invested in a money market account, and all interest earned on the Earnest Money shall be added to and deemed a part of the Earnest Money. The Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser if this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Deadline or if both Lender’s Approvals are not timely obtained as expressly described herein (unless the Lenders’ Approvals are not timely obtained due to Purchaser’s refusal or failure to (i) provide, within a reasonable time following Lenders’ request therefor, information required to be provided by assuming borrowers under the Documents (as defined in Section 6(A)(ix) hereof) or (ii) otherwise comply with reasonable requests of the Lenders to the extent such requests are permitted under the Documents; provided, that Purchaser will not be required for purposes of this Section or Section 5(G) to provide information that is confidential or that is not customarily provided to mortgage lenders of borrowers with non-traded public REIT structures except to the extent such information is required by Lenders to comply with law). If the Closing does not occur hereunder for any reason other than Purchaser's default hereunder, the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser; and, if the Closing does not occur due to Purchaser's default hereunder, the Earnest Money shall be paid to Seller as liquidated damages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Closing occurs hereunder, the Earnest Money shall be paid to Seller and credited against the Purchase Price.

B.    Purchase and Sale.

On the Closing Date Seller shall convey the Project to Purchaser on the terms and conditions set forth herein. On the Closing Date Purchaser shall accept title to the Project from Seller on the terms and conditions set forth herein and shall pay to Seller the aggregate purchase price (" Purchase Price ") of ONE HUNDRED FIFTEEN MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($115,000,000.00), subject to prorations as set forth below, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

C.    Independent Consideration.
The amount of $100.00 (the “Independent Consideration”) is expressly reserved from the Earnest Money. The parties have bargained for and agreed that the amount described in the preceding sentence, along with the expenditures of time and resources and possible loss of opportunity by Purchaser, constitute adequate consideration for Seller remaining bound by this Agreement notwithstanding such termination rights of Purchaser. Upon Seller’s request at any time, Title Company will release and disburse the Independent Consideration to Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Independent Consideration is in addition to and independent of any other consideration or payment provided in this Agreement, and is nonrefundable and may be retained by Seller in all events.

K.

In addition, Seller shall be relieved of any liability for the representations and warranties contained in Paragraph 3(E) with respect to any Tenant Lease to the extent Purchaser has received and approved an estoppel certificate covering the matters set forth in Paragraph 3(E) from the party who is the tenant under such Tenant Lease.

Except for the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 3(A) and 3(B) above which shall survive the Closing indefinitely, all representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement (as modified by the certificate delivered from Seller to Purchaser at Closing (described herein)) shall terminate 180 days after the Closing and Seller shall have no liability thereafter with respect to such representations and warranties except to the extent Purchaser has filed a lawsuit against Seller during such 180-day period for breach of any representation or warranty.

B.    Power.

This Agreement and all other agreements, instruments and documents required to be executed or delivered by Purchaser pursuant hereto have been or (if and when executed) will be duly executed

Except as provided below, no consents and permissions are required to be obtained by Purchaser for the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other documents to be executed by Purchaser hereunder (other than the Lenders’ Approvals). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, Purchaser will require approval of its board of directors in order to consummate the acquisition of the Project; provided, however, if Purchaser does not notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period pursuant to the terms of Section 6(B)(i) hereof, Purchaser shall be deemed to have obtained such approval and no further consents or permissions shall be required to be obtained by Purchaser for the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other documents to be executed by Purchaser hereunder (other than the Lenders’ Approvals). The consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and the fulfillment of the terms hereof will not result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or document to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order, rule or regulation of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body or any administrative agency or any other governmental body having jurisdiction over Purchaser.

C.    No Proceedings.

SECTION 5. OPERATION OF THE PROJECT PRIOR TO CLOSING.

Seller agrees to do all of the following, from and after the date hereof and prior to the Closing:

A.    Operate and maintain the Project in the same manner as it is currently being operated and shall, subject to damage, destruction or loss to the Project in which event Purchaser shall have the rights set forth in Section 7(C) below, cause the Project to be, on the Closing Date, in the same condition as exists as of the date of this Agreement (normal wear and tear excepted).

B.     Maintain, or cause to be maintained, all existing insurance carried by Seller on the Improvements.

C.    Without the prior written consent of Purchaser (except in the case of emergencies and except for tenant improvements required or permitted under the Tenant Leases), not make, or obligate itself to make, any material alterations or modifications to the Project.

D.    After the date which is two (2) business days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Deadline, not enter into any new agreements affecting the Project which would survive the Closing, including any leases or contracts, and not make any modifications or amendments to any agreements affecting the Project which would survive the Closing, without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent Purchaser may withhold in its sole discretion); provided, however, that (i) Seller shall not be obligated to obtain Purchaser's consent for any agreements or modifications which can be terminated on not more than 30 days' notice without the payment of any premium or penalty and (ii) Purchaser’s consent may not be unreasonably withheld, condition or delayed in connection with an amendment to the Ancora Lease solely for the purpose of acknowledging and effectuating transfer of the FF&E identified in the Ancora Lease from Seller to Ancora. Seller shall give Purchaser written notice of such agreements (if any) which Seller shall be entering into and Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after such notice from Seller to approve or disapprove such new lease or other document. In the event that Purchaser fails to respond within five (5) business days after a second notice from Seller requesting approval of a new lease or any other document, then Purchaser's approval shall be deemed granted.

E.    On or prior to Closing, terminate all property management agreements. The parties hereby agree and acknowledge that Purchaser shall assume all of the Contracts.

F.     Estoppel Letters .    Seller shall request in writing from each Tenant (and any guarantor of a Tenant’s obligations under a Tenant Lease, provided that an estoppel certificate not signed by said guarantor shall still satisfy the terms of this Section) at the Project an estoppel letter addressed to Purchaser substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J , or if such Tenant is unwilling to execute such form, then the form attached to such Tenant’s Lease (or if no form exists, then an estoppel letter based on the requirements of such Tenant’s Lease) (an “Estoppel Certificate”); provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall initially request from each Tenant an estoppel letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver each of the Estoppel Certificates to Purchaser on or before 3 business days prior to Closing. Each Estoppel Certificate shall be dated no earlier than 45 days prior to Closing. Prior to submitting each

11


draft of the Estoppel Certificates to each Tenant, Seller will deliver the same to Purchaser for Purchaser’s reasonable approval as to factual matters contained therein. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser within three (3) business days after receipt copies of any such executed Estoppel Certificates actually obtained by Seller. After executed Estoppel Certificates are received by Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller, within three (3) business days after receipt, written notice of Purchaser’s disapproval of any Estoppel Certificate which (i) contains an adverse and non-de minimus disclosure inconsistent with the applicable Tenant Lease or (ii) reveals any default past applicable notice and grace period by Seller, as landlord, or Tenant under the applicable Tenant Lease. In the event Purchaser disapproves any Estoppel Certificate in accordance with the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to attempt to cure such adverse disclosure or default and submit an additional or amended Estoppel Certificate to Purchaser for Purchaser’s approval or disapproval in accordance with the foregoing. Any Estoppels which do not reveal (i) or (ii) in the immediately preceding sentence, or which may reveal (i) or (ii) but with respect to which the Purchaser fails to give notice of objection with the three (3) business day period after receipt thereof, shall be deemed satisfying the requirements hereof and referred to herein as the “Approved Estoppel Certificates”.

G.     Approval of Loan Assumptions . Promptly (but in all events within three (3) business days) after the Effective Date, Seller shall, with appropriate cooperation and assistance from the Purchaser with respect to information related to Purchaser required by the Lenders, make a formal application to each of the Lenders, as applicable with regard to each, for approval of an assignment and assumption of its respective Documents between Seller and Purchaser and for Purchaser (or its affiliate) purchasing and taking title to the Project, which approvals and assignment and assumption documents shall be in forms reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (collectively the “Lenders’ Approvals” and each, a “Lender’s Approval”). Purchaser has advised Seller that Purchaser and its affiliates do not meet the definition of “Qualified Real Estate Investor” as set forth in the Pioneer Mortgage as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that, based on Purchaser’s most recent financial estimates and analyses, Purchaser and its affiliates will meet such definition upon Closing. Seller shall notify Pioneer Lender (as defined in Section 6(A)(ix) hereof) of the foregoing in Seller’s application to Pioneer Lender for its Lender’s Approval and shall endeavor to obtain confirmation from Pioneer Lender as soon as possible that Purchaser and its affiliates satisfy (or Pioneer Lender waives) Pioneer Lender’s “Qualified Real Estate Investor” requirement in connection with the proposed loan assumption (and for the avoidance of doubt, Pioneer Lender’s election to disapprove Purchaser and its affiliates due to the failure to meet the “Qualified Real Estate Investor” definition prior to Closing will not be deemed to be a default by Purchaser hereunder). The Lenders’ Approvals must include a release and discharge of Seller from obligations related to the applicable Documents first arising or accruing after the Closing Date, other than liabilities under any environmental indemnity or other provisions of the Documents not customarily released by such Lender, and assumption of all such obligations by Purchaser first arising or accruing after the Closing Date. Without limiting the reasons for which Purchaser may reasonably determine the Lenders’ Approvals to be unsatisfactory, it is expressly agreed that each Lender’s Approval must include the applicable Lender’s agreement to: (i) issue a statement to Purchaser, which statement shall include (but may not be limited to) confirmation as to the outstanding principal balance and all accrued interest and other charges due under the Documents as of Closing, confirmation that there are no outstanding defaults under the Documents and such other information as is reasonably requested by Purchaser (including, without limitation, a statement of any amounts being held in escrow); (ii) amend the Documents to provide, or otherwise agree in writing, that a prior default or failure to perform by Seller under the Documents that is discovered by the applicable Lender after the Closing will not constitute a default under the Documents; provided, that if a Lender

12


does not so agree, in lieu of such Lender’s agreement Purchaser will accept an indemnification from a creditworthy affiliate of Seller reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, against all costs, losses or damages resulting or arising from or attributable to a default under the Documents by Seller prior to the Closing Date which is deemed a default by the applicable Lender following the Closing Date; (iii) include modifications to the Documents to reflect modifications to the permitted transfer language, in substantially the form of Purchaser’s customary permitted transfers language as set forth on Exhibit L attached hereto; and (iv) not require any other material modifications to the Documents that are not acceptable to Purchaser, in Purchaser’s reasonable discretion; provided that it will be deemed reasonable for Purchaser to disapprove proposed material modifications that would change the economic terms of, or increase the obligations or liability of Purchaser or its affiliates under, the Documents. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it may be required by the Lenders to provide, and likewise shall provide if required by the applicable Lender, (1) financial information from Purchaser or creditworthy parties affiliated with Purchaser, (2) a standard non-recourse carve-out guaranty reasonably acceptable to Purchaser from a creditworthy affiliate of Purchaser, and if required by the applicable Lender, such creditworthy affiliate of Purchaser shall also execute and deliver an environmental indemnification agreement in substantially the same form as that which the applicable Seller previously delivered in favor of such Lender, and (3) covenants and agreements to abide by and perform the duties and obligations of the “Borrower” under the Documents from and after the Closing Date. Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approvals and confirmations (including drafts of any assumption or loan modification agreements) from the applicable Lenders in writing as soon as practicable after the Effective Date of this Agreement, which efforts shall include the submission of all statements, documents and other information required by the applicable Lenders (subject to the proviso in Section 2(A) regarding information to be provided). From and after the Effective Date to the Closing Date, Seller agrees to observe and comply with all of its obligations under the Documents, and Seller may not enter into or permit any amendments, modifications, restatements or supplements of the Documents without Purchaser’s prior written consent (to be given or withheld in Purchaser’s reasonable discretion; provided that following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may give or withhold its consent in its sole discretion). For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this Agreement, “Lender’s Approval” and “Lenders’ Approval” means Lenders’ approvals of the assumptions of the loans evidenced by the Documents strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 5(G) without any additional material conditions.

Seller covenants and agrees to cooperate with Lenders and Purchaser as may be required to ensure that the UCC financing statements and fixture filings initially filed by Lenders with respect to the Documents are terminated or assigned (to name Purchaser as “debtor”) of record promptly following the Closing. This covenant will survive the Closing indefinitely.

H.    At Seller’s sole cost, Seller shall stripe the requisite number of additional parking spaces at the Northgate Property such that the parking available at the Northgate Property is in compliance with applicable zoning ordinances (the “Parking Space Work”).

I.    Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts (but at no material cost to Seller) to obtain the assignment attached hereto as Exhibit M, signed by Artemis HIP Regency, LLC and City of Garland, Texas, a Texas Home-rule municipality.

SECTION 6. REVIEW OF PROJECT.

13



A.     Due Diligence Materials .

x.    All those certain documents listed on Exhibit A of the Letter of Intent dated March 5, 2019, from Black Creek Industrial Acquisitions LLC to LaSalle Investment Management, Inc., except for the engineering/property condition reports and current budget and variance report listed thereon.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser shall be responsible for verifying through Purchaser's own due diligence the accuracy and completeness of all documents and information, including the foregoing Due Diligence Materials, provided by Seller to Purchaser, and any reliance by Purchaser on such documents and information shall be at Purchaser's own risk and expense,

14


except as expressly set forth herein. In addition, Purchaser expressly acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall not be obligated to furnish, nor shall Purchaser be entitled to review or have access to, any confidential, proprietary or privileged documents or information connected with the Project, including but not limited to opinions, appraisals, audits, internal memoranda or internal work product, which are in the possession or control of Seller. Purchaser agrees that in connection with its purchase of the Project, Purchaser may review the Due Diligence Materials, as well as title to the Project, the physical condition of the Project, all zoning, land use, building, environmental and other statutes, rules or regulations applicable to the Project, and any other matters relevant to acquisition, ownership and operation of the Project (collectively the "Property Information"), all subject to Section 6(B) and 6(D) hereof. Seller shall promptly provide to Purchaser any updated Due Diligence Materials in the event Seller receives the same prior to Closing. LIKEWISE, SELLER HAS NOT UNDERTAKEN ANY INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION OF, AND, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER AS TO THE TRUTH, ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF, ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE DUE DILIGENCE MATERIALS AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS RELATING TO THE PROPERTY INFORMATION, DELIVERED OR MADE AVAILABLE BY SELLER TO PURCHASER IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN.
B.     Due Diligence Period .
i.    Purchaser shall have a period (the “Due Diligence Period”), commencing upon the Effective Date and extending through and expiring at 5:00 p.m. (Mountain Time) on May 17, 2019 (the "Due Diligence Deadline"), in which to review all aspects of the Project, and to determine in its sole and absolute discretion if the Project is satisfactory. If Purchaser shall conclude that the Project is not satisfactory, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller delivered prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, in which event the Earnest Money shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, Purchaser shall pay any cancellation fees or charges of the Escrow Agent and the parties shall have no further obligations or liability hereunder (except as may be expressly provided herein upon termination). In the event Purchaser does not so notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have automatically waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6(B)(i), and the parties shall proceed to closing in accordance with the terms set forth herein.
ii.    If during the Due Diligence Period any representations and warranties made by Seller and contained in Section 3 hereof are, or have become, not true and correct in any material respect (for reasons other than breach or fault of, and beyond the control of, Seller), Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing, and Seller shall not be in breach of this Agreement with respect thereto, and Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy (Purchaser hereby waiving all other remedies it may have, whether at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect thereto shall be (i) to waive same and consummate the transaction contemplated in this Agreement, or (ii) to terminate this Agreement by furnishing written notice thereof to the Seller on or prior to the last day of the Due Diligence Period, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement (except for those provisions which expressly survive termination of the Agreement), and the Earnest Money shall be returned to the Purchaser in the manner described in and in accordance with this Section 6(B).

15


C.     Right of Entry . During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser and its agents shall have the right to enter the Project during normal business hours for the purpose of examining the environmental, structural and other physical conditions of the Project. Such right of entry shall be governed by the following provisions:
i.    In exercising such right of entry, the Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with the operation of the Project or the rights of Tenants therein. Purchaser shall provide to Seller written notice (which may be provided electronically) of the intention of Purchaser and/or its agents to enter the Project at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to such intended entry and specify the intended purpose therefor and the inspections and examinations contemplated to be made. Furthermore, Purchaser shall not take any core samples, install any monitoring wells or undertake any other invasive tests or studies without the Seller's prior written consent (which may be withheld by Seller in its sole discretion). In all events, Purchaser shall repair and restore the Project to substantially the same condition existing at the time of such entry, if any physical damage is caused by the exercise of such rights; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have no obligation to repair any damage to the extent caused by Seller’s negligence or misconduct, to remediate, contain, abate or control any hazardous materials not placed on the Project by Purchaser or its agents (except to the extent exacerbated by Purchaser or its agents), or to repair or restore any latent condition discovered by Purchaser or its agents (except to the extent exacerbated by Purchaser or its agents).
ii.    Purchaser shall not contact or communicate with any Tenants at the Project without prior consent of Seller and without affording Seller an opportunity to review written communications in advance or accompany Purchaser on visits to Tenants (as the case may be). In addition, except for a customary and reasonable Phase I environmental audit, code compliance review of the Project and routine diligence and document requests, Purchaser shall not, without Seller’s prior written consent thereto, contact any governmental authority or any official, employee, agent or representative thereof regarding any matter with respect to the Project, including, without limitation, any hazardous materials on or the environmental condition of the Project or regarding the Project’s compliance or noncompliance with laws.
iii.    Prior to entering onto the Project, Purchaser, as well as any consultants or other third parties performing tests and studies of the Project, shall deliver to Seller certificates evidencing (1) commercial general liability insurance coverage against injury (including death) and property damage with a limit of not less than $2,000,000 and naming Seller, and any additional parties as may be designated by Seller, as additional insured(s), (2) worker's compensation insurance coverage with limits of not less than that required by law, (3) employer's liability insurance coverage against accident and disease with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 for each employee, and (4) contractual liability insurance. In addition, prior to allowing any consultant or other third party performing audits or other inspections of the environmental aspects of the Project, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller certificates evidencing that Purchaser and such party are covered by environmental liability insurance with a limit of not less than $1,000,000.
iv.    Purchaser hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Seller from and against any and all liability, losses and damages, suits, claims, actions or other proceedings (including reasonable attorneys' fees), and costs and expenses (including the costs of restoration, remediation and other similar activities) (collectively, “Losses”) to the extent caused by the physical investigations and entry at the Project by Purchaser or any of its employees, agents, contractors or consultants, but expressly excluding Losses to the extent arising out of latent defects, the existence of hazardous materials not placed on the

16


Project by Purchaser or its consultants, the negligence or misconduct of Seller, or any diminution in value in the Project arising from, or related to, matters discovered by Purchaser pre-existing during its investigation of the Project (except to the extent such latent defects, hazardous materials or pre-existing matters are exacerbated by Purchaser or its agents). The foregoing indemnity shall survive any termination of or closing under this Agreement.
v.    Purchaser agrees that if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not occur due to termination prior to the Closing or for any other reason other than a default by Seller, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller copies of the most recent version of any engineering, environmental and other studies, reports and inspections prepared by third parties in connection with the Project (the “Third Party Reports”) within five (5) days after (i) written request from Seller and (ii) receipt of one-half (1/2) of Purchaser’s out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the Third Party Reports; provided, (x) all of the Third Party Reports shall be furnished to Seller “AS IS” with no warranties or representations of any kind whatsoever from Purchaser, and (y) in no event shall Purchaser be required to provide to Seller any materials or documentation, the delivery of which would jeopardize their privileged status as attorney work product or attorney-client privileged communications.
vi.    Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller or destroy all copies, including any electronic copies, Purchaser has made of any Due Diligence Materials containing any confidential information before or after the execution of this Agreement, not later than ten (10) business days following the date this Agreement is terminated for any reason, and provide Seller with a notice of the completion of such destruction, provided, however, Purchaser will be entitled to retain one copy of the Due Diligence Materials for compliance purposes or for purposes of defending or maintaining litigation or threatened litigation.

PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SELLER MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND REGARDING THE PHYSICAL (INCLUDING ENVIRONMENTAL AND STRUCTURAL) CONDITION OF THE PROJECT, EXCEPT AS MAY BE EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN (IF AT ALL), AND PURCHASER SHALL RELY ENTIRELY ON PURCHASER'S OWN EXAMINATIONS AND INSPECTIONS OF THE PROJECT IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO PURCHASE THE PROJECT.
D.     Legal Review Period .

i    In the event Purchaser fails to deliver a notice of termination pursuant to Section 6(B), Purchaser shall be deemed to have automatically waived any objection to the state of title to the Project as set forth in any title insurance commitment received by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period ("Title Commitment") with respect to the Project or to any matter shown on any Survey Purchaser has obtained prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period ("Survey") with respect to the Project.

ii.    In the event that, after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, any matters not shown on the initial Title Commitment or initial Survey arise with respect to the Project and are included on a modified version of the Title Commitment or Survey, the following provisions shall apply to such new matters shown on the modified versions of the Title Commitment or Survey, as the case may be:


17


On or before the date five (5) business days after Purchaser's receipt of the modified Survey or Purchaser's receipt of the modified Title Commitment, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of any matter which is indicated on the modified Survey or modified Title Commitment to which Purchaser reasonably objects. If Purchaser does so notify Seller of a matter reasonably objectionable to Purchaser within the prescribed time, Seller shall have five (5) business days in which to determine whether or not to cure the defect or other matter so objected to by Purchaser and to notify Purchaser of Seller's decision in this regard (and no response by Seller within such period shall be deemed an election not to cure); however, Seller shall not be required or obligated to expend any amount of money or take any other action to cure such defect or other matter. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure the defect or other matter so objected to by Purchaser, Purchaser shall have the right, as its sole remedy on account thereof, to either (i) waive such defect or other matter and take title to the Project without any adjustment in the Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money (without prejudicing any of Purchaser’s rights in connection with a breach of a covenant or representation of Seller under this Agreement), provided that if Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser must notify Seller of its election to terminate within five (5) business days after the Seller's notice (or by the Closing Date defined in Section 1(C) hereof, if earlier), failing which option (i) will be applicable. In the event that Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing of a defect or other objectionable matter within the prescribed time as described above, or Purchaser fails to terminate the Agreement within the prescribed time upon Seller's election (or deemed election) not to cure, Purchaser shall be deemed to have automatically waived any objection to such matters.

iii.    In the event Seller commits in writing to cure any matters at set forth in this Section 6(D), Seller’s obligation to cause such cures shall be an additional Seller covenant and also a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations to close; provided that if Seller fails to cause such cures, despite Seller using commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the same, Purchaser’s only remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of its Earnest Money.

iv.    In all events and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, at Closing, (i) Seller will cause to be paid off (with proceeds up to the Seller's proceeds of sale) and released any mortgage or deed of trust encumbering title to the Project, except for the Documents, (ii) Seller will cause to be discharged and released any judgment liens against Seller and any mechanics liens as a result of any work done on the Project, and (iii) Seller will cause the discharge and removal of that certain Affidavit for Mechanic’s and Materialmen’s Lien filed by Christopher Hart against the Project, and such liens shall not be Permitted Exceptions (whether or not Purchaser expressly objects to such liens).


SECTION 7. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

A.     Conditions to Purchaser's Closing . In addition to the conditions expressly provided in other provisions of this Agreement, the satisfaction of each of the following conditions by the time of Closing hereunder shall be a condition to the Purchaser’s obligation to close hereunder:

(i)    The truth in all material respects of each representation and warranty of the respective Sellers set forth in Section 3 above.


18


(ii)    Seller shall have performed all of its obligations and not be in breach or default hereunder past applicable notice and grace period.

(iii)    Seller shall have obtained and delivered to Purchaser an Approved Estoppel Certificate dated within 45 days of Closing directly from (i) Cardone Industries, Inc. (“Cardone”), ADPI LLC, Briggs Equipment, PODS, Glidepath, Total Sweeteners and Arizona Partsmaster (collectively, the “Major Tenants”) and (ii) a sufficient number of other tenants such that the Approved Estoppel Certificates (inclusive of Approved Estoppel Certificates from Major Tenants) shall cover 75% of the leased rentable square feet of the Project (the “Estoppel Condition”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, upon written notice to Purchaser given on or before the third business day immediately preceding the then-scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall have the one-time right, subject to approval of the Lenders, to adjourn the Closing in order to obtain an additional or amended Estoppel Certificate that does not otherwise satisfy the Estoppel Condition, by extending the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) the date that is thirty (30) days after the date the Closing Date would have occurred but for such extension and (ii) the date that is three (3) business days after satisfaction of the Estoppel Condition.

Purchaser specifically acknowledges and agrees that the inability of Seller to obtain Tenant Estoppel Certificates despite commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the same or the existence of adverse matters disclosed in Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall not give rise to any remedy of any kind against Seller (other than the termination right in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this Section 7).        

(iv)    The Title Company shall have committed to issue to Purchaser a Form T-1 Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance, in the amount of the Purchase Price, insuring the title and interest of Purchaser in and to the Property and any easements or rights of way appurtenant thereto, with exception only for the Permitted Exceptions and standard exceptions that cannot be deleted or modified under Texas title insurance regulations (the “Title Policy”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall any standard pre-printed exceptions be deemed “Permitted Exceptions” for purposes of this Agreement (other than the standard survey exception and the rights of tenants, as tenants only, under the Tenant Leases).

(v)    Issuance of the Lenders’ Approvals.

(vi)    There shall not have occurred between the date hereof and the Closing Date, inclusive, destruction of or damage or loss to the Project (whether or not covered by insurance proceeds) from any cause whatsoever the cost of which to repair exceeds 2.5% of the Purchase Price or entitles any Tenant to terminate its Tenant Lease or results in an uninsured portion of the casualty equal to or greater than $750,000. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of such damage, and Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after receipt of such notice in which to elect to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement within such period or if the cost of repairing the damage to the Project is less than 2.5% of the Purchase Price, the parties shall proceed with the Closing in which case Seller shall assign to Purchaser any claims for proceeds from the insurance policies covering such destruction or damage (and give Purchaser a credit for the amount of any deductible thereof or any uninsured portion of the casualty up to an amount equal to $750,000), and Seller shall have no obligation to repair such damage. In the event the Agreement is

19


not terminated, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

(vii)    There shall not have occurred at any time or times on or before the Closing Date any taking or threatened taking of the Project or any material part thereof by condemnation (or any condemnation that allows any tenant to terminate its Tenant Lease), eminent domain or similar proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may elect to waive such condition in which case Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any proceeds resulting from any such proceeding. In the event the Agreement is not terminated, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims without the prior written consent of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(viii)    No Major Tenant shall have terminated or given written notice exercising its right to terminate its Tenant Lease. No Major Tenant shall have filed for voluntary bankruptcy or be subject to an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding.

(ix)    There shall not have occurred any default or event of default by Seller of any obligation under any of the Documents which has not been cured, and none of the Documents shall have been amended, modified, restated or supplemented (unless Purchaser has given its prior written consent as described in Section 5(G)).

(x)    To Seller’s actual knowledge, Cardone shall not be in default of its lease as of Closing.

(xi)    Seller shall have completed the Parking Space Work, such that the parking available at the Northgate Property is in compliance with applicable zoning ordinances.


To the extent that any one or more of the foregoing conditions is not satisfied in full by the time of Closing, unless waived in writing by Purchaser, Purchaser may, as its sole remedy on account thereof, terminate this Agreement and receive a return of its Earnest Money, in which event the parties shall have no further liability hereunder (except as may be expressly provided herein to the contrary). In addition to (and notwithstanding) the foregoing, if the failure of a condition is due to a breach by Seller hereunder, Purchaser may pursue any of its remedies under Section 13.
B.     Conditions to Seller's Closing . In addition to the conditions expressly provided in other provisions of this Agreement, the satisfaction of each of the following conditions by the time of Closing hereunder shall be a condition to the Seller’s obligation to close hereunder:
(i)    Purchaser shall have performed all of its obligations and not be in breach or default hereunder past applicable notice and grace period.
(ii)    The truth in all material respects of each representation and warranty of the Purchaser set forth in Section 4 above.
(iii)    Issuance of the Lenders’ Approvals.
To the extent that any one or more of the foregoing conditions is not satisfied in full by the time of Closing, unless waived in writing by Seller, Seller may, as its sole remedy on account thereof,

20


terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser shall receive a return of its Earnest Money and the parties shall have no further liability hereunder (except as may be expressly provided herein to the contrary). In addition to (and notwithstanding) the foregoing, if the failure of a condition is due to a breach by Purchaser hereunder, Seller may pursue any of its remedies under Section 13.

SECTION 8. CLOSING.

The Closing hereunder shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of the Title Company.

B.    Actions.

At the Closing, Seller shall convey the Project to Purchaser; and Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Purchase Price, plus or minus prorations as set forth herein.

(i) all keys and combinations to locks located at the Project;

(m)    a bill of sale and assignment from Seller to Ancora of the FF&E identified in the Ancora Lease, consistent with the terms of such lease and acknowledged by Ancora;

(e) any transfer tax declarations required to be signed by Purchaser under applicable law in connection with the Deed; and

(f)    any documents required to be signed by Purchaser in connection with the Lenders’ Approvals.


D.    Prorations.

The Purchase Price for the Project shall be subject to prorations and credits as follows to be determined as of 12:01 A.M. on the Closing Date, the Closing Date being a day of income and expense to Purchaser, with all prorations being based on the actual number of days in the year; provided, however, if Seller's bank does not receive the Purchase Price by 1:00 p.m. its time on the Closing Date, the prorations shall be determined as of 12:01 a.m. on the first business day following the Closing Date:

1.    Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all rents, including estimated payments for operating expenses and real estate taxes, collected by Seller prior to the Closing and allocable to the period after Closing but not for any rent which has not been collected by Seller. No credit shall be given the Seller for accrued and unpaid rent or any other non-current sums due from tenants until said sums are paid, and Seller shall retain the right to collect any such rent provided Seller does not sue to evict any tenants or terminate any Tenant Leases. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts after Closing to collect any rent under the Tenant Leases which has accrued as of the Closing; provided, however, Purchaser shall not be obligated to sue any tenants or exercise any legal remedies under the Tenant Leases or otherwise pursue such amounts other than the ordinary course of business. Any portion of any rents collected subsequent to the Closing Date and properly allocable to periods prior to the Closing Date shall be paid, promptly after receipt, to the Seller, but subject to all of the provisions of this Section; and any portion thereof properly allocable to periods on or subsequent to the Closing Date shall be paid to Purchaser. All payments collected from tenants after Closing by either Seller or Purchaser shall be applied to the rent designated by the tenant making such payment. If such tenant does not

23


designate the rent to which such payment shall be applied, such payments shall first be applied to the month in which the Closing occurs, then to any rent due to Purchaser for the period after Closing and finally to any rent due to Seller for the period prior to Closing; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller collects any payments from tenants after Closing through its own collection efforts, Seller may first apply such payments to rent due Seller for the period prior to the Closing. Any cash security deposits held by Seller at Closing shall be credited to Purchaser on the Closing Date, and any non-cash security deposits held by Seller at Closing, including letters of credit, shall be transferred to Purchaser at Closing. In furtherance of the foregoing, upon the Closing Date, Seller shall have obtained, prepared and executed a bank transfer application to transfer any letters of credit issued pursuant to a Tenant Lease to Purchaser, which application shall be delivered by Seller to the bank within one (1) business day following the Closing Date. Thereafter, the parties shall work together in good faith to cause the bank to issue the transferred letter of credit to Purchaser as soon as feasible. Such obligations shall survive the Closing Date. During the term of this Agreement, Seller shall not apply any security deposits without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

2.    The adjustment rent or escalation payments payable under the Tenant Leases for taxes and operating expenses shall be reprorated after their final determination based on Seller's and Purchaser's respective share of such taxes and operating expenses. Prior to Closing, and as a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to proceed to Closing, Seller shall make a final calculation of the real estate taxes and operating expenses for the Project for 2018, pay any amounts due to any Tenant (or, alternatively, provide a credit to Purchaser at Closing for such amounts), and provide reasonable evidence thereof to Purchaser. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing, Seller shall deliver Purchaser all back-up invoices for costs incurred by Seller as operating expenses in calendar year 2019, so as to allow Purchaser to perform a year end reconciliation as required under the Tenant Leases. As soon as reasonably possible after the end of the year in which the Closing occurs, Purchaser shall make a final calculation of the real estate taxes and operating expenses for the Project for such year as well as the adjustment rent or escalation payments payable under the Tenant Leases in connection therewith. Purchaser shall also calculate Purchaser’s and Seller’s share thereof as set forth in the preceding sentence which calculation shall be submitted to Seller for its reasonable approval but only as to the portion affecting Seller. Seller shall provide its approval or disapproval of such calculation within ten (10) days after receiving the calculation; and, if Seller does not notify Purchaser of its approval or disapproval within such ten (10) day period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved such calculation. If Seller has collected more in estimated payments from the tenants for operating expenses and taxes than it is entitled to retain after the final reconciliations are completed, Seller shall pay such excess to Purchaser for refund to the tenants; and, if Seller has collected less in estimated payments than it is entitled to receive after the final reconciliations are completed, Purchaser shall bill the tenants for such amount and shall remit such amounts to Seller upon receipt. Such obligations shall survive the Closing Date.

3.    Except to the extent they are directly paid by the tenants, real estate and personal property taxes due and payable with respect to the Project in the year in which the Closing occurs (regardless of when such taxes are assessed or accrue), shall be prorated based on the portion of the applicable tax year which has elapsed prior to the Closing Date. If the amount of any such taxes has not been determined as of Closing, such credit shall be based on the most recent ascertainable taxes and shall be reprorated upon issuance of the final tax bill. If the taxes can be paid on a discounted basis, the proration shall be done on the basis of the discounted amount payable at the earlier of the Closing Date or the date on which such taxes were paid. Seller shall also give Purchaser a credit for any special assessments against the Project which are due and payable prior to Closing, and Purchaser shall be

24


responsible for all special assessments due and payable on or after the Closing. Such obligations shall survive the Closing Date.

4.    If, after the Closing, Purchaser or Seller receives (in the form of a refund, credit, or otherwise) any amounts as a result of a real property tax contest, appeal, or protest (a " Protest "), such amounts will be applied as follows: first, to reimburse Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, for all costs incurred in connection with the Protest; second, to Purchaser for payment of refunds payable to past, present, or future tenants of the Project, in accordance with the terms of any Tenant Leases; and third, to Seller to the extent that such Protest covers the period prior to the Closing Date and to Purchaser to the extent that such Protest covers the period from and after the Closing Date. Seller will not initiate any new Protest without the prior reasonable approval of Purchaser, and Seller will not unreasonably refuse to initiate a Protest prior to the Closing Date if Purchaser so requests in writing. Such obligations shall survive the Closing Date.

5.    Utilities and fuel payable by the owner of the Project, including, without limitation, steam, water, electricity, gas and oil, which are not directly paid by tenants, shall be prorated as of the Closing. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause the meters, if any, for utilities to be read the day on which the Closing Date occurs and to pay the bills rendered on the basis of such readings. If any such meter reading for any utility is not available, then adjustment therefor shall be made on the basis of the most recently issued bills therefor which are based on meter readings no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date; and such adjustment shall be reprorated when the next utility bills are received. Purchaser shall give Seller a credit at Closing for all deposits with utility companies serving the Project in which case Seller shall assign its rights to such deposits to Purchaser at the Closing; or, at Seller's option, Seller shall be entitled to receive a refund of such deposits from the utility companies, and Purchaser shall post its own deposits.
  
6.    Charges payable by the owner of the Project under the Contracts pursuant to this Agreement shall be prorated on an accrual basis.

    At least three (3) days prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a draft closing statement setting forth the prorations required hereunder. Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser and Seller shall agree on a revised closing statement to the extent additional information is received after Closing with respect to the prorations described above; and within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of the year in which the Closing has occurred, Purchaser and Seller shall agree on final prorations provided, however, Seller shall in any event be entitled to recover its share of any tax refunds or percentage rents as set forth herein paid after such final prorations. The party owing money to the other party based on any revisions to the prorations shall make such payment within ten (10) business days after agreement on such revisions, except as may be otherwise provided herein with respect to Operating Expenses.

E.    Closing Costs.

Purchaser shall pay (1) the cost of any endorsements to the Title Policy, (2) the cost of the Survey requested by Purchaser, (3) one-half of any escrow or closing charge by the Title Company, (4) any recording fees payable in connection with the recording of the deed hereunder, and (5) its own due diligence and legal expenses. Seller shall pay (1) any transfer taxes payable in connection with the recording of the deed hereunder, (2) the premium for the ALTA coverage in the Title Policy, (3) one-

25


half of any escrow or closing charge by the Title Company, (4) its own legal expenses and (5) the costs contemplated under the Pioneer Mortgage and Northgate Mortgage to effectuate the assignment of the same to Purchaser (including, without limitation, assumption application fees, appraisal fees, loan transfer fees, costs and fees of the Lenders’ counsels and other consultants, and loan policy endorsement expenses).

F.
Leasing Expenses.

After Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless against, any brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other leasing costs (including free rent periods and rent abatements) in connection with any new leases or new amendments executed after April 1, 2019 or in connection with options exercised after April 1, 2019. In addition, Purchaser shall give Seller a credit at Closing for any such expenses or costs which are paid by Seller prior to Closing in connection with any new leases or amendments thereto executed, or options under Tenant Leases exercised, after April 1, 2019.

On or before Closing, Seller will either pay or give Purchaser a credit for (i) any unpaid commissions for any Tenant Leases or new lease amendments (including without limitation all unpaid commissions in connection with the Ancora Lease) executed prior to April 1, 2019, (ii) any unpaid tenant improvement expenses and other leasing costs (including free rent periods and rent abatements) for any Tenant Leases or new lease amendments (including without limitation, all unpaid tenant improvement expenses and free rent periods in connection with the Ancora Lease and the lease with Elliott Electric (i.e., $27,163.14 in rental abatement)) executed prior to April 1, 2019 (and Purchaser shall be responsible for paying such portions after Closing).


SECTION 9. WAIVER; SEVERABILITY.

Each party hereto may, at any time or times, at its election, waive any of the conditions to its obligations hereunder by a written waiver expressly detailing the extent of such waiver (and no other waiver or alleged waiver by such party shall be effective for any purpose). No such waiver shall reduce the rights or remedies of such party by reason of any breach by the other party or parties of any of its or their obligations hereunder. If any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall to any extent be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby.
  
SECTION 10. BROKERS.

Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not engaged or dealt with any brokers or finders in connection with the transactions set forth herein except for the Broker, and each party shall indemnify and hold the other party harmless from any claim, liability, loss or damage resulting from the indemnifying party's breach of the foregoing representation and warranty or from any party claiming a brokerage commission is due through such party's acts. Seller shall be obligated to pay any commissions or fees due the Broker.

SECTION 11. SURVIVAL; FURTHER INSTRUMENTS.

Except as expressly set forth herein, none of the terms and provisions herein shall survive the Closing, and neither party shall be entitled to bring any cause of action against the other party with respect thereto after Closing. Each party will, whenever and as often as it shall be requested so to do by the other, cause to be executed, acknowledged or delivered any and all such further instruments and documents as may be necessary or proper, in the reasonable opinion of the requesting party, in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement and as are consistent with this Agreement.

SECTION 12. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFITS.

This Agreement is made for the sole benefit of Purchaser and Seller and their respective successors and assigns (subject to the limitation on assignment set forth below), and no other person or persons shall have any right or remedy or other legal interest of any kind under or by reason of this Agreement. Whether or not either party hereto elects to employ any or all of the rights, powers or remedies available to it hereunder, such party shall have no obligation or liability of any kind to any third party by reason of this Agreement or by reason of any of such party's actions or omissions pursuant hereto or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 13. REMEDIES.

A.     Notice and Opportunity to Cure . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that either Seller or Purchaser is in breach or default of this Agreement during the period up to (and including) Closing hereunder, the other party shall, prior to exercising any remedies provided herein on account of such breach or default, deliver written notice to the breaching or defaulting party, and such breaching or defaulting party shall have a period of five (5) days in which to cure such breach or default (provided that the closing hereunder shall not be subject to any extension to accommodate such 5-day grace period), failing which the party not in breach or default shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies provided herein.

B.     Purchaser Defaults . If Purchaser defaults in its obligation to close escrow as provided in this Agreement, Seller's sole remedy shall be to recover the Earnest Money as liquidated damages; provided, however, the Earnest Money shall not be deemed liquidated damages or a limit to Purchaser’s indemnification obligations under Section 6 hereof. The parties agree that Seller's damages in the event of a failure by Purchaser to close escrow will be difficult to determine and that the Earnest Money is a fair estimate of those damages. THE AMOUNT PAID TO AND RETAINED BY SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS SHALL BE SELLER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IF PURCHASER FAILS TO CLOSE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROJECT. THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER'S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE BY PURCHASER TO CLOSE ESCROW WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE EARNEST MONEY PLUS ANY INTEREST ACCRUED THEREON REPRESENTS THE PARTIES' REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 13, SELLER AND PURCHASER AGREE

27


THAT THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION IS NOT INTENDED AND SHOULD NOT BE DEEMED OR CONSTRUED TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY PURCHASER’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 6 HEREOF .

C.
Seller Defaults.

If Seller shall default hereunder prior to Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled as its sole remedies to either (i) terminate this Agreement and obtain a refund of all of the Earnest Money and reimbursement of its actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $200,000; or (ii) to sue for specific performance of this Agreement; and Purchaser waives any other rights or remedies at law or equity. Seller shall have no liability after Closing for the breach of any representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement and any closing documents delivered pursuant hereto except to the extent the loss suffered by Purchaser as a result of such breach exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate, and in no event shall Seller's liability after Closing for a breach of Seller's representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement and any closing documents delivered pursuant hereto as a result of such breach exceed 2% of the Purchase Price in the aggregate. The foregoing cap, however, shall in no event be applicable to Seller's obligations with respect to prorations or the payment of commissions applicable to this Agreement. For six (6) months following the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain access to funds so as to have the ability to satisfy any post-closing obligations that it may have hereunder.

SECTION 14. NOTICES.

All notices and other communications which either party is required or desires to send to the other shall be in writing and shall be sent by (i) e-mail or facsimile provided a copy thereof is also sent by one of the following means, (ii) hand delivery, (iii) registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or (iv) nationally-recognized overnight courier service. Notices and other communications shall be deemed to have been given on actual receipt. Notices shall be addressed as follows:

SECTION 18.    WAIVER OF CERTAIN DAMAGES.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND RELEASE ANY RIGHT, POWER OR PRIVILEGE EITHER MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECEIVE FROM THE OTHER PARTY ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, STATUTORY OR TREBLE DAMAGES OR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ACKNOWLEDGING AND AGREEING THAT THE REMEDIES HEREIN PROVIDED, WILL IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES BE ADEQUATE.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT WITHOUT A JURY.

SECTION 20.    LIKE-KIND EXCHANGE

30



Each party agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other party in effecting an exchange transaction by the other party which includes the Project pursuant to Section 1031 of the United States Internal Revenue Code, provided that any exchange initiated by either party shall be at such party's sole cost and expense and shall not delay the Closing; and neither party shall be obligated to accept title to any other property as a result of such exchange. Each party hereby agrees to take all reasonable steps on or before the Closing Date to facilitate such exchange if requested by the other party, provided that (a) no party making such accommodation shall be required to acquire any substitute property, (b) such exchange shall not affect the representations, warranties, liabilities, covenants and obligations of the parties to each other under the Agreement, (c) no party making such accommodation shall incur any additional cost, expense or liability in connection with such exchange (other than expenses of reviewing and executing documents required in connection with such exchange), and (d) no dates in the Agreement will be extended as a result thereof unless by mutual written agreement of the parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, if Seller so elects to close the transfer of the Project as an exchange, then (i) Seller, at its sole option, may delegate its obligations to transfer some or all of the assets under the Agreement, and may assign its rights to receive all or a portion of the Purchase Price from Purchaser, to a deferred exchange qualified intermediary (a " QI" ) or to an exchange accommodation titleholder (" EAT" ), as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no way reduce, modify or otherwise affect the obligations of Seller pursuant to the Agreement; (iii) Seller shall remain fully liable for its obligations under the Agreement as if such delegation and assignment shall not have taken place; (iv) QI or EAT, as the case may be, shall have no liability to Purchaser; and (v) the closing of the transfer of the Project to Purchaser shall be undertaken by direct deed, assignment and other appropriate conveyance from Seller (or, if applicable, from other affiliates of Seller whom Seller will cause to execute such deeds, assignments and other appropriate instruments of conveyance) to Purchaser or to EAT, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, if Purchaser so elects to close the acquisition of the Project as an exchange, then (i) Purchaser, at its sole option, may delegate its obligations to acquire the Project under the Agreement, and may assign its rights to receive the Project from Seller, to a QI or to an EAT, as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no way reduce, modify or otherwise affect the obligations of Purchaser pursuant to the Agreement; (iii) Purchaser shall remain fully liable for its obligations under the Agreement as if such delegation and assignment shall not have taken place; (iv) QI or EAT, as the case may be, shall have no liability to Seller; and (v) the closing of the acquisition of the Project by Purchaser or the EAT, as the case may be, shall be undertaken by direct deed from Seller (or, if applicable, from other affiliates of Seller whom Seller will cause to execute such deeds, assignments and other appropriate instruments of conveyance) to Purchaser (or to EAT, as the case may be).

SECTION 21. MISCELLANEOUS.

A.     Miscellaneous; Assignment . THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ALL EXHIBITS HERETO WHICH ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE) CONTAINS THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES RESPECTING THE MATTERS HEREIN SET FORTH AND SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO RESPECTING SUCH MATTERS. THIS AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the state where the Project is located. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent

31


of Seller except Purchaser may assign all or any portion of this Agreement or its rights hereunder, or delegate all or any portion of its duties or obligations to one or more affiliates of Purchaser without Seller's written consent (but with prior written notice to Seller); any assignee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the assignor's obligations relating only to the portion of the Project that such assignee acquires (for the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser intends to assign its rights and obligations with respect to the Northgate Property, the Pioneer Property and the Pioneer Parking Property to two or more separate affiliates, and in such event, the assignee with respect to the Northgate Property shall only be obligated to assume assignor’s obligations under this Agreement relating to the Northgate Property (and such entity will assume only the Northgate Mortgage) and the assignee with respect to the Pioneer Property shall only be obligated to assume assignor’s obligations under this Agreement relating to the Pioneer Property (and such entity will assume only the Pioneer Mortgage) and the assignee with respect to the Pioneer Parking Property shall only be obligated to assume assignor’s obligations under this Agreement relating to the Pioneer Parking Property), and the assignor and such assignee shall remain joint and severally liable hereunder with respect to such portion of the Project. If either Lender requires, Seller and Purchaser agree to amend this Agreement so that the purchase and sale of the Northgate Property, the purchase and sale of the Pioneer Property and the purchase and sale of the Pioneer Parking Property will be governed by separate agreements, the terms of which are otherwise identical to this Agreement. Except in connection with a 1031 exchange, Seller shall not assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder, or delegate any of its obligations, without the prior written approval of Purchaser. For purposes of this Section 21, an affiliate of Purchaser shall include (a) any entity that is owned, controlled by or is under common control with Purchaser (a " Purchaser Control Entity "), (b) any entity in which one or more Purchaser Controlled Entities directly or indirectly is the general partner (or similar managing partner, member or manager) or owns more than 50% of the economic interests of such entity, or (c) any entity (or subsidiary thereof) that is advised by an affiliate of BCI-IV Advisors LLC. Purchaser shall notify Seller at least five (5) days prior to the Closing of any assignment of this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Time is of the essence of this Agreement and each provision hereof. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, changed or modified orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom any amendment, change or modification is sought. Purchaser shall not record this Agreement, any memorandum of this Agreement, any assignment of this Agreement or any other document which would cause a cloud on the title to the Project. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile or other electronic signature, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. The section headings appearing in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto. The phrase "business days" as used herein shall mean the days of Monday through Friday, excepting only federal holidays. The phrase "calendar days" as used herein shall mean all days of the week, including all holidays. The term "days" without reference to calendar or business days shall mean calendar days. If any date upon which an obligation is to be performed hereunder, or a period described herein expires, falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or other legal holiday recognized by national banks in the District of Columbia, then the date for such performance or the expiration of such period, as applicable, shall be extended to the next following day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or such legal holiday.


32


B.     1099-S; Real Estate Reporting Person . In order to comply with information reporting requirements provided by Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the parties hereby designate Escrow Agent as the party who shall be responsible for reporting to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) the sale of the Project on IRS form 1099-S. The parties shall provide Escrow Agent with the information necessary to complete Form 1099-S. Escrow Agent shall provide all the parties with a copy of the IRS Form 1099-S filed with the IRS and with any documentation used to complete IRS Form 1099-S. The parties agree to retain this Agreement for 4 years following December 31 of the calendar year in which the closing hereunder occurs.
C.     Perpetuities . If the rule against perpetuities would invalidate this Agreement or any portion hereof, due to the potential failure of an interest in property created herein to vest within a particular time, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each such interest in property must vest, if at all, before the passing of 10 years from the date of this Agreement, or this Agreement shall become null and void upon the expiration of such 21 year period and the parties shall have no further liability hereunder.

D.     Joint and Several . Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary and as to the representations and warranties made in Section 3 hereof, the obligation of each Seller hereunder and under all of the closing documents are joint and several with each other Seller, with a breach or default by any one Seller constituting a breach by all Sellers.


SECTION 22. ADDITIONAL REIT PROVISIONS.

A. Post-Closing Access to Records . Upon receipt by Seller of Purchaser's reasonable written request at anytime and from time to time within a period from the Closing until the later of (i) 2 years after Closing, or (ii) for the period any tenant has the right under its lease for the Project to audit such books and records of Seller, Seller shall, at Seller's principal place of business, during Seller's normal business hours, make all of Seller's records relating to the Project, other than those previously delivered to Purchaser and other than any privileged or confidential books and records, available to Purchaser for inspection and copying (at Purchaser's sole cost and expense).

B. Information and Audit Cooperation . To the extent necessary to enable Purchaser to comply with any financial reporting requirements applicable to Purchaser and upon at least five (5) business days prior written notice to Seller, within 90 days after the Closing Date, Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no cost or liability to Seller) and allow Purchaser's auditors to audit the trial balance related to the operation of the Project for the calendar year prior to the Closing Date and for the portion of the calendar year starting on January 1 through the Closing Date. Other than any representation, warranty or covenant otherwise set forth in this Agreement or the documents delivered at Closing, Seller makes no representations, warranties or covenants with respect to the trial balance or the books and records which may be reviewed in auditing the same, and Purchaser releases and waives any liability or claims against Seller related to the trial balance or the books and records which may be reviewed and audited.

(B)    the weighted-average number of OP Units outstanding during the applicable year, calculated in accordance with GAAP as applied on a consistent basis;
(C)    provided, that the Performance Component shall at no time be less than zero.

15




Except as described in the definition of Loss Carryforward in this Agreement, any amount by which the Annual Total Return Amount falls below the Hurdle Amount will not be carried forward to subsequent periods. If the Performance Component is payable pursuant to this Paragraph 9(a)(ii), the Sponsor or the Advisor, as applicable, shall be entitled to such payment or distribution, as applicable, even in the event that the total percentage return to Unitholders over any longer or shorter period, or the total percentage return to any particular Unitholder over the same, longer or shorter period, has been less than the Annual Total Return Amount used to calculate the Hurdle Amount. The Sponsor or the Advisor, as applicable, shall not be obligated to return any portion of any Advisory Fee paid based on the Corporation’s or the Operating Partnership’s subsequent performance.
If the Performance Component is being calculated with respect to a year in which the Corporation completes a Liquidity Event, for purposes of determining the Annual Total Return Amount, the change in VPU shall be deemed to equal the difference between the Ending VPU as of the end of the prior calendar year and the value per OP Unit determined in connection with such Liquidity Event. In connection with a Listing, for purposes of determining the Annual Total Return Amount, the change in VPU shall be deemed to equal the difference between the Ending VPU as of the end of the prior calendar year and an amount equal to the market value of the listed shares based upon the average closing price or, if the average closing price is not available, the average of the bid and asked prices, for the 30-day period beginning 90 days after such Listing. Upon a Liquidity Event other than a Listing, for purposes of determining the Annual Total Return Amount, the change in VPU shall be deemed to equal the difference between the Ending VPU as of the end of the prior calendar year and an amount equal to the consideration per Fund Interest received by holders of Fund Interests in connection with such Liquidity Event.
(iii)    The Advisory Fee will accrue monthly. The Fixed Component is payable monthly in arrears; provided that, with respect to a Disposition, the Fixed Component is payable upon the occurrence of a Listing or other Disposition, as described in Paragraph 9(a)(i) above. The Performance Component with respect to any calendar year is payable after the completion of the NAV Calculations for December of such year. The Fixed Component shall be payable for each month in which this Agreement is in effect, even if the Agreement is in effect for a partial month. The Performance Component shall be payable for each calendar year in which this Agreement is in effect, even if the Agreement is in effect for a partial calendar year. If the Advisory Fee is payable with respect to any partial calendar month or calendar year, then the Fixed Component shall be prorated based on the number of days elapsed during any partial calendar month and the Performance Component shall be calculated based on the annualized total return amount determined using the total return achieved for the period of such partial calendar year. In the event this Agreement is terminated or its term expires without renewal, the partial period Fixed Component and Performance Component of the Advisory Fee shall be calculated and due and payable upon the Termination Date. In such event, for purposes of determining the Annual Total Return Amount, the change in VPU shall be determined based on a good faith estimate of what the NAV Calculations would be as of the Termination Date; provided, that, if this Agreement is terminated with respect to a Liquidity Event, the Performance Component will be due and payable in connection with such Liquidity Event and the Annual Total Return Amount shall be calculated as set forth in Paragraph 9(a)(ii) above.

16




(iv)    In the event the Operating Partnership commences a liquidation of its Assets during any calendar year, the Sponsor or the Advisor, as applicable, shall be paid the Advisory Fee from the proceeds of the liquidation and the Performance Component shall be calculated at the end of the liquidation period prior to the distribution of the liquidation proceeds to the Unitholders. The calculation of the Performance Component for any partial year shall be calculated consistent with the applicable provisions of Paragraphs 9(a)(ii) and 9(a)(iii) above.
(v)    The measurement of the change in VPU for the purpose of calculating the Annual Total Return Amount is subject to adjustment by the Board to account for any dividend, split, recapitalization or any other similar change in the Operating Partnership’s capital structure or any distributions that the Board deems to be a return of capital if such changes are not already reflected in the Operating Partnership’s net assets.
(vi) The Performance Component shall not be calculated or accrued with respect to any year in which the Corporation has not determined an initial VPU in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. The Performance Component shall be calculated and accrued beginning as of the Corporation’s determination of an initial VPU in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and shall be calculated and accrued for periods thereafter. The Performance Component shall be calculated for the entire calendar year in which the Corporation determines an initial VPU and the Beginning VPU shall be deemed $10.00 for purposes of the calculation.
(b)    The Advisor or its Affiliates may incur third-party costs in connection with the performance of applicable services pursuant to this Agreement, which third-party costs shall be separately reimbursed pursuant to Paragraph 10 hereof.
(c)     Fees for other Services . The Corporation may retain certain of the Advisor’s Affiliates from time to time, for services relating to its investments or its operations, which may include property management services, leasing services, corporate services, statutory services, transaction support services (including but not limited to coordinating with brokers, lawyers, accountants and other advisors, assembling relevant information, conducting financial and market analyses, and coordinating closing procedures), construction and development management, and loan management and servicing, and within one or more such categories, providing services in respect of asset and/or investment administration, accounting, technology, tax preparation, finance (including but not limited to budget preparation and preparation and maintenance of corporate models), treasury, operational coordination, risk management, insurance placement, human resources, legal and compliance, valuation and reporting-related services, as well as services related to mortgage servicing, group purchasing, healthcare, consulting/brokerage, capital markets/credit origination, property, title and/or other types of insurance, management consulting and other similar operational matters. Any fees paid to the Advisor’s affiliates for any such services will not reduce the Advisory Fees. Any such arrangements will be at market rates or reimbursement of costs.
(d)     Loans from Affiliates . The Advisor or any Affiliate thereof may not make any loan to the Corporation or the Operating Partnership unless a majority of the Board of Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) approve the loan as being fair, competitive, and commercially reasonable and no less favorable to the Corporation or the Operating Partnership than comparable loans between unaffiliated parties.

17




(e)     Exclusion of Certain Transactions . In the event the Corporation or the Operating Partnership shall propose to enter into any transaction with the Sponsor, the Advisor, a Director or any Affiliate thereof, then such transaction shall be approved by a majority of the Board of Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) as fair and reasonable to the Corporation.
(f)     Payment in Shares or OP Units . The fees due under this Paragraph 9 shall be paid in cash; provided, however, that in lieu of cash, the Advisor may elect to receive the payment of the fees due under this Paragraph 9 in any class of Shares or OP Units. Any such Shares or OP Units shall be valued at the NAV per share applicable to such Shares or OP Units on the issue date. Such shares shall not be subject to any early redemption deduction under the Corporation’s share redemption programs.
10. EXPENSES    .
(a) In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Paragraph 9 hereof and subject to the limitations set forth in this Paragraph 10 and in Paragraph 12 and contained in the Charter, the Corporation or the Operating Partnership shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor or its Affiliates in connection with the services they provide to the Corporation and the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:
(i)    Organization and Offering Expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor or any of its Affiliates; subject to Paragraph 10(c) below and provided that after an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Corporation to the extent the sum of the Organization and Offering Expenses and the Sales Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Distribution Fees with respect to such Offering that are borne by the Corporation exceed 15.0% of the Gross Proceeds raised in the completed Offering; the Advisor shall be responsible for the payment of all the Corporation's Organization and Offering Expenses in excess of the maximum amount permitted;
 
(ii) Acquisition Expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor or any of its Affiliates; subject to Paragraph 10(d) below;
(iii) Disposition Expenses incurred in connection with the disposition of Assets;
(iv) the actual cost of goods and services used by the Corporation and obtained from Persons not affiliated with the Advisor, other than Acquisition Expenses, including brokerage fees paid in connection with the purchase and sale of any securities;
(v) interest and other costs for borrowed money, including discounts, points and other similar fees;
(vi) taxes and assessments on income of the Corporation or Assets and any other taxes otherwise imposed on the Corporation;
(vii) costs associated with insurance required in connection with the business of the Corporation or by the officers and Directors;

18




(viii) expenses of managing and operating Assets owned by the Corporation, whether payable to an Affiliate of the Corporation or a non-affiliated Person;
(ix) all expenses in connection with payments to the Directors and meetings of the Directors and Stockholders;
(x) expenses associated with a Listing, if applicable;
(xi) expenses connected with payments of Distributions in cash or otherwise made or caused to be made by the Corporation to the Stockholders;
(xii) expenses of organizing, revising, amending, converting, modifying, or terminating the Corporation or the Charter;
(xiii) expenses of maintaining communications with Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities;
(xiv) personnel (and related employment) costs and overhead (including, but not limited to, allocated rent paid to both third parties and an affiliate of the Advisor, equipment, utilities, insurance, travel and entertainment, and other costs) costs incurred by the Advisor or its Affiliates in performing the services described in Paragraph 3 hereof, including, but not limited to, total compensation, benefits and other overhead of all employees involved in the performance of such services; provided, however, that no reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel to the extent that such personnel perform services in transactions for which the Advisor receives a separate fee;
(xv) audit, accounting and legal fees and other fees for professional services relating to the operations of the Corporation and all such fees incurred at the request, or on behalf of, the Independent Directors or any committee of the Board of Directors;
(xvi) out-of-pocket costs for the Corporation to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances; and
(xvii) all other costs incurred by the Advisor in performing its duties hereunder.
(b) Expenses incurred by the Advisor or its Affiliates on behalf of the Corporation and the Operating Partnership and payable pursuant to this Paragraph 10 shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Corporation and the Operating Partnership and the calculation of the fees and commissions due under this Agreement during each month, and shall deliver such statement to the Corporation and the Operating Partnership within 45 days after the end of each month.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor shall pay for all Organization and Offering Expenses (other than the Sales Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Distribution Fees) incurred through December 31, 2019. The Corporation shall reimburse the Advisor for all such Organization and Offering Expenses (other than the Sales Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Distribution Fees) ratably over sixty months following December 31, 2019. Beginning January 1, 2020, the Corporation shall reimburse the Advisor for all Organization and Offering Expenses (other than the Sales Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Distribution Fees) as and

19




when incurred. Any reimbursement to the Advisor pursuant to this Paragraph 10(c) shall be subject to the limitation described in Paragraph 10(a)(i).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in a given month, the reimbursement of Acquisition Expenses to the Advisor would cause the NAV per Share calculated for such month to be lower than the lesser of $10.00 per Share or the NAV per Share calculated for the prior month (a “Shortfall”), then Advisor shall defer reimbursement of Acquisition Expenses as set forth in this Paragraph 10(d). The Advisor shall defer the reimbursement of all or a portion of the Acquisition Expenses necessary to prevent a Shortfall in a given month. This Paragraph 10(d) shall apply with respect to all Acquisition Expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor or its Affiliates through December 31, 2019. The Corporation shall reimburse the Advisor for any such unreimbursed Acquisition Expenses ratably over the eighteen months following December 31, 2019. Beginning on January 1, 2020, the Corporation shall reimburse the Advisor for all Acquisition Expenses as and when incurred.
11. OTHER SERVICES    . Should the Board of Directors request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Corporation and the Operating Partnership other than set forth in Paragraph 3, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Independent Directors of the Corporation, subject to the limitations contained in the Charter, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
 12. REIMBURSEMENT TO THE ADVISOR    . For any year in which the Corporation qualifies as a REIT, the Corporation shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter Total Operating Expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) for such year. Any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Corporation or, at the option of the Corporation, subtracted from the Total Operating Expenses reimbursed during the subsequent fiscal quarter unless a majority of the Independent Directors determine that such excess was justified based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, then the Excess Amount may be paid and within 60 days after the end of such Expense Year there shall be sent to the stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. Such determination shall be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors. The Corporation will not reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates for services for which the Advisor or its Affiliates are entitled to compensation in the form of a separate fee. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
13. OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR    . Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor or any of its Affiliates from engaging in or earning fees from other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any member, manager, director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in or earn fees from any other

20




business or to render services of any kind to any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association and earn fees for rendering such services. The Advisor may, with respect to any investment in which the Corporation is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein, and earn fees for rendering such advice and service. It is contemplated that the Corporation may enter into joint ventures or other similar co-investment arrangements with certain Persons, and pursuant to the agreements governing such joint ventures or arrangements, the Advisor may be engaged (directly or indirectly) to provide advice and service to such Persons, in which case the Advisor will earn fees for rendering such advice and service. The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that the Advisor may provide advice and render services to Persons that will compete with the Corporation for investments.
The Advisor shall report to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the Corporation and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership, corporation, limited liability company, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor or its Affiliates shall promptly disclose to the Board knowledge of such condition or circumstance. If the Advisor, its members, managers, directors, employees or Affiliates thereof have sponsored other investment programs with similar investment objectives which have investment funds available at the same time as the Corporation, it shall be the duty of the Independent Directors to ensure that the Advisor and its Affiliates follow the method approved by the Independent Directors, by which investments are to be allocated to the competing investment entities and to use their reasonable efforts to ensure that such method is applied fairly to the Corporation.
The Advisor shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present a continuing and suitable investment program to the Corporation which is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Corporation, but neither the Advisor nor any Affiliate of the Advisor shall be obligated generally to present any particular investment opportunity to the Corporation even if the opportunity is of character which, if presented to the Corporation, could be taken by the Corporation. In the event an investment opportunity is located, the allocation procedure set forth under the caption “Conflicts of Interest—Conflict Resolution Procedures” in any Prospectus (as such procedures may be amended from time to time by a majority of the Board, including the Independent Directors) shall govern the allocation of the opportunity among the Corporation and Affiliates of the Advisor.
14. TERM; TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT    . This Agreement shall continue in force for a period of one year from the date hereof, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties. It is the duty of the Independent Directors to evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing the Agreement, and each such renewal shall be for a term of no more than one year.
 
15. TERMINATION BY THE PARTIES    . This Agreement may be terminated (i) immediately by the Corporation and/or the Operating Partnership for Cause (subject to any applicable cure period), (ii) upon 60 days’ written notice without Cause and without penalty by a majority of the Independent Directors of the Corporation or by the Advisor, (iii) upon 60 days’ written notice with Good Reason by the Advisor or (iv) immediately by the Corporation and/or

21




the Operating Partnership in connection with a merger, sale of Assets or transaction involving the Corporation pursuant to which a majority of the Directors then in office are replaced or removed.
16. ASSIGNMENT TO AN AFFILIATE    . This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate or Affiliates with the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors). The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement to any Person without obtaining the approval of the Board of Directors. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Corporation or the Operating Partnership without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the Corporation or the Operating Partnership to a corporation, limited partnership or other organization which is a successor to all of the assets, rights and obligations of the Corporation or the Operating Partnership, in which case such successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Corporation and the Operating Partnership are bound by this Agreement.
17. PAYMENTS TO AND DUTIES OF ADVISOR UPON TERMINATION    .
(a) After the Termination Date, the Advisor shall not be entitled to compensation for further services hereunder except it shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation or the Operating Partnership within 30 days after the effective date of such termination: (i) subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 12 hereof and in the Charter, all unpaid reimbursements of expenses, including without limitation any Acquisition Expenses that have not been reimbursed to the Advisor as of the Termination Date pursuant to Paragraph 10(d) hereof and, subject to the limitation described in Paragraph 10(a)(i) hereof, any Organization and Offering Expenses that have not been reimbursed to the Advisor as of the Termination Date pursuant to Paragraph 10(c) hereof; and (ii) all earned but unpaid fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement.
(b) In addition, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 12, the Advisor shall be entitled to receive any Excess Amount (as defined in Paragraph 12) for which the Independent Directors determined (before or after the Termination Date) that there was justification based on unusual and nonrecurring factors.
(c) The Advisor shall promptly upon termination:
(i) pay over to the Corporation and the Operating Partnership all money collected and held for the account of the Corporation and the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, after deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which it is then entitled;
(ii) deliver to the Board of Directors a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last accounting furnished to the Board of Directors;
(iii) deliver to the Board of Directors all Assets and documents of the Corporation and the Operating Partnership then in the custody of the Advisor; and
(iv) cooperate with the Corporation and the Operating Partnership to provide an orderly management transition.

18. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE CORPORATION AND THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP    . The Corporation and the Operating Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective members, managers, officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland or the Charter.

19. INDEMNIFICATION BY ADVISOR    .
