Ares Real Estate Income Trust Inc. Private Distribution Reinvestment Plan Agreement
Ares Real Estate Income Trust Inc. has established a Private Distribution Reinvestment Plan allowing shareholders and certain partnership unit holders to automatically reinvest dividends and distributions into additional company shares. Participants can enroll or be automatically enrolled, and shares are purchased at the most recent transaction price, typically based on net asset value. The plan can be terminated by participants at any time, and the company may pay distributions in cash at its discretion. Participation does not relieve individuals of tax obligations on dividends or distributions received.
