Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to make the Dealer an employee, agent, representative or partner of the Dealer Manager or of the Company, and the Dealer is not authorized to act for the Dealer Manager, the Advisor or the Company or to make any representations on their behalf except as set forth in the Prospectus and any Supplemental Information furnished to Dealer by the Dealer Manager or the (as defined below).

have satisfied the minimum purchase requirement, minimum additional purchases must be in increments of $500, except for purchases made pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. The Shares are nonassessable. The Dealer hereby agrees to place any order for the full purchase price.

 

 

IV.

Dealers’ Commissions and Expense Reimbursements

 

Except for discounts described in or as otherwise provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the Dealer’s sales commission is up to (a) seven percent (7.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Primary Shares and (b) three percent (3.0%) of the gross proceeds of the DRIP Shares, in each case, sold by it and accepted and confirmed by the Company, which commission will be paid to the Dealer Manager and reallowed to the Dealer. For these purposes, a “sale of Shares” shall occur if and only if a transaction has closed with a securities purchaser pursuant to all applicable offering and subscription documents and the Company has thereafter distributed the commission to the Dealer Manager in connection with such transaction.

 

As provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the Dealer Manager and the Dealer may reduce the amount of its dealer manager fee and its sales commission on sales of $250,000 of Primary Shares or more to certain purchasers in order to provide a reduction to the total purchase price for such Shares. It is the sole responsibility of the Dealer to determine whether a particular purchase by a subscriber qualifies for a volume discount to the Dealer’s sales commission and to confirm that the appropriate volume discount was accorded to the subscriber based on the Dealer’s review of the transaction confirmation issued by the Company.

 

The Company and the Advisor will not be liable or responsible to the Dealer for direct payment of commissions or any other amounts to the Dealer, it being the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Dealer Manager for all payments to the Dealer. The Dealer hereby waives any and all rights to receive payment of commissions and any other payments due until such time as the Dealer Manager is in receipt of the commission or other payment from the Company or the Advisor, as applicable. The Dealer affirms that the Dealer Manager’s liability for commissions payable is limited solely to the proceeds of commissions receivable associated therewith.

 

The parties hereby agree that the foregoing commission is not in excess of the usual and customary distributors’ or sellers’ commission received in the sale of securities similar to the Shares, that the Dealer’s interest in the offering is limited to such commission from the Dealer Manager and the Dealer’s indemnity referred to in Section 8 of the Dealer Manager Agreement, and that the Company is not liable or responsible for the direct payment of such commission to the Dealer.
