Article 3

Compensation

3.1 Commissions and Marketing Support Fees.

(a) The Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer, as compensation for all services to be rendered by the Managing Dealer pursuant to this Agreement, a commission of up to seven percent (7.0%) of the selling price of each Share for which a sale is completed, regardless of whether such Share is sold by the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker; provided, however, that the Company will not pay commissions for sales of Shares pursuant to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, and that it will pay reduced commissions or may eliminate commissions on certain sales of Shares, including the reduction or elimination of commissions in accordance with, and on the terms set forth in, the Prospectus and Section 3.2(a) and 3.2(c) below, which reduction or elimination of commissions will not change the net proceeds to the Company. Such commission rates shall remain in effect during the full term of this Agreement unless otherwise changed by a written agreement between the parties hereto. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or a portion of these commissions to a Participating Broker.

(b) The Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer a nonaccountable marketing support fee for assistance in selling and marketing the Shares of one percent (1.0%) of the selling price of each Share which is sold in the Offering. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or any portion of this marketing support fee for each Share sold by a Participating Broker which agrees to use their internal marketing support personnel to assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team and use their internal marketing communication tools to promote the Company.

-3-

(c) The Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer a nonaccountable dealer manager fee equal to two percent (2.0%) of the selling price of each Share which is sold in the Offering for serving as managing dealer of the Offering. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or a portion of this fee to a Participating Broker.

3.2 Reduced Fees and Other Fee Matters.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 3.1 above, the following persons and entities may purchase Shares net of some or all of the 7.0% commission and the 1.0% marketing support fee (but not net of the 2.0% dealer manager fee), at a per Share purchase price of $9.20 (assuming no other discounts apply): (i) A registered principal or representative or associated person of the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker and any employee, officer or director of affiliates of the Managing Dealer or the affiliated entity itself (and the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons); (ii) employees, officers, trustees and directors of the Company, the Advisor or CB Richard Ellis Investors L.L.C., or of the affiliates of either of the foregoing entities (and the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons), and any Plan established exclusively for the benefit of such persons or entities; (iii) a client of an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws (other than any registered investment adviser that is also registered as a broker dealer, with the exception of clients who have “wrap” accounts which have asset based fees with such dually registered investment adviser/broker dealer); and (iv) a person investing in a bank trust account with respect to which the decision-making authority for investments made has been delegated to the bank trust department. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family members” means such person’s spouse, parents, children, grandparents, grandchildren and any such person who is so related by marriage such that this includes “step-” and “-in law” relations as well as such persons so related by adoption. In addition, Participating Brokers that have a contractual arrangement with their clients for the payment of fees on terms that are inconsistent with the acceptance of all or a portion of the commissions and the marketing support fee may elect not to accept all or a portion of their compensation in the form of commissions and the marketing support fees offered by the Company for Shares that they sell. In that event, such Shares shall be sold to the investor net of some or all of the 7.0% commission and the 1.0% marketing support fee at a per share purchase price as low as $9.20. The amount of proceeds to the Company will not be affected by reducing commissions and marketing support fees payable in connection with sales to investors described in this paragraph.

(b) A Participating Broker may withhold the selling commissions to which it is entitled from the purchase price for the Shares in the Offering and forward the balance of the subscription proceeds to the Company if (i) the Participating Broker is legally permitted to do so and (ii) (a) the Participating Broker meets all applicable net capital requirements under the rules of FINRA or other applicable rules regarding such an arrangement; (b) the Participating Broker forwards the subscription agreement to the Company and receives the Company’s written acceptance of the subscription prior to forwarding the purchase price for the Shares, net of the commissions to which the Participating Broker is entitled, to the Company; and (c) the Participating Broker verifies that there are sufficient funds in the investor’s account with the Participating Broker to cover the entire cost of the subscription.

(c) In connection with the purchase and subsequent purchase of certain minimum numbers of Shares, the amount of commissions otherwise payable may be reduced in accordance with the volume discounts schedule set forth in the Prospectus.

(d) In the event that the Company pays any commissions and fees to the Managing Dealer for a sale of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded or rejected as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the commission rate established in this Section 3.1, multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded or rejected, as applicable. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the Managing Dealer after such withdrawal occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Company within ten (10) days following receipt of notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded or rejected subscriptions.

-4-

(e) Shareholders who elect to participate in the Reinvestment Plan will be charged $9.50 per Share, or 95% of the fair market value of a Share on the reinvestment date, as determined by the Advisor, or another firm the Company may choose for such purpose, and no commissions, dealer manager fees or marketing support fees will be paid to the Managing Dealer or any Participating Brokers in connection with Shares purchased in the Reinvestment Plan.

3.3 Due Diligence Fees. The Company will reimburse the Managing Dealer for bona fide due diligence expenses incurred by the Managing Dealer or reimbursed by the Managing Dealer to the Participating Brokers in connection with the Offering. Such due diligence expense reimbursements will not exceed one half of one percent (0.50%) of the selling price of each Share which is sold in the Offering. All due diligence expense reimbursements paid by the Managing Dealer to Participating Brokers shall be reimbursed by the Company to the Managing Dealer and shall be subject to (i) this expense cap; and (ii) the cap on reimbursement of organizational and offering expenses set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; provided, however, in each such case, such Participating Broker shall be required to provide detailed and itemized invoices supporting such expenses to the Managing Dealer.

3.4 Completed Sale.

(a) Subscription documents for the Offering will be executed as described in the Prospectus. The Company will accept or reject each subscription within 30 days of receipt by the Company’s transfer agent. A sale of a Share shall be deemed by the Company to be completed for purposes of Section 3.1 if and only if (i) the Company has received a properly completed and executed subscription agreement, together with payment of the full purchase price of each purchased Share, from an investor who satisfies the applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Registration Statement as determined by the Participating Broker (or Managing Dealer if applicable) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription; and (iii) such investor has been admitted as a shareholder of the Company. In addition, no sale of Shares shall be completed until at least five business days after the date on which the subscriber receives a copy of the Prospectus.

(b) The Managing Dealer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and no commission, marketing support fee or dealer manager fee will be paid to the Managing Dealer with respect to that portion of any subscription which is rejected.

3.5 Payment. Except as provided in the Prospectus, the commissions specified in Section 3.1 for the sale of any Shares shall be payable in cash by the Company, as specified in Section 3.1, no later than 30 days after the investor subscribing for the Share is admitted as a shareholder of the Company. Investors whose subscriptions for Shares are accepted shall be admitted no later than the last day of the calendar month in which such subscriptions are accepted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Company pays any commission, marketing support fee or dealer manager fee to the Managing Dealer for sale by a Participating Broker of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the commission rate established in Section 3.1 of this Agreement, multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the Managing Dealer after such withdrawal occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Company within ten (10) days following receipt of notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded subscriptions.

3.6 Sales Incentives. The Company or its affiliates may provide incentive items for registered representatives of the Managing Dealer and the Participating Brokers, which in no event shall exceed an aggregate of $100 per annum per participating registered representative. In the event other incentives are provided to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers, they will be paid only in cash, and such payments will be made only to the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers rather than to their registered representatives. Sales incentive programs offered to Participating Brokers must first have been submitted for review by FINRA, and must comply with FINRA Conduct Rule 2710 or 2810, as applicable. Sales incentive programs

-5-

offered to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer must comply with FINRA Conduct Rule 2710 or 2810, as applicable but are not required to be submitted to FINRA. Costs incurred in connection with such sales incentive programs, if any, will be considered underwriting compensation.

3.7 FINRA Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Company pay or give or cause to be paid or given any compensation or incentives in excess of amounts permitted under applicable FINRA rules or published guidance.

Such registration statement and the prospectus on file with the SEC are herein called the Registration Statement and the Prospectus respectively, except that (A) if the Company files a post-effective amendment to such registration statement, then the term “Registration Statement” shall, from and after the declaration of the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment, refer to such registration statement as amended by such post-effective amendment, and the term “Prospectus” shall refer to the amended prospectus then on file with the SEC, and (B) if the prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to either Rule 424(b) or (c) of the rules and regulations of the SEC under the 1933 Act (the “Regulations”) shall differ from the prospectus on file at the time the Registration Statement or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto, if any, shall have become effective, the term “Prospectus” shall refer to such prospectus filed pursuant to either Rule 424(b) or (c), as the case may be, from and after the date on which it shall have been filed. The SEC has not issued any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus.

(d) The Company will give the Managing Dealer written notice when the Registration Statement becomes effective and shall deliver to the Managing Dealer a signed copy of the Registration Statement, including its exhibits, and such number of copies of the Registration Statement, without exhibits, and the Prospectus, and any supplements and amendments thereto which are finally approved by the SEC, as the Managing Dealer may reasonably request for sale of the Shares.

(i) The Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy and similar laws and principals of equity. The execution and delivery of the Agreement, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and the compliance with the terms hereof by the Company do not and will not conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the organizational documents of the Company, (ii) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party as of the date of this Agreement, or (iii) any law, order, rule or regulation, writ, injunction or decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) only, for such conflicts or defaults that could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect; and no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or other governmental agency or body has been or is required for the performance of the Company or for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except such as have been already made or obtained under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, FINRA or the securities laws of all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

(j) There are no actions or proceedings against, or investigations of, the Company pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, before any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other tribunal (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Shares or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) that might materially and adversely affect the performance by the Company of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement, or the Shares or (iv) seeking to affect adversely the federal income tax attributes of the Shares except as described in the Prospectus.

(b) The Company shall not be required to provide indemnity or hold the Managing Dealer or officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons harmless for any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense suffered by the Managing Dealer or the Company unless: (i) the party seeking indemnification has determined, in good faith, that its course of conduct was in the best interests of the Company; (ii) the person seeking indemnification was acting on behalf of or performing services on behalf of the Company; (iii) the loss, liability, claim, damage or expense was not the result of negligence or misconduct on the part of the party seeking indemnification or the Indemnified Party; and (iv) any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense is recoverable only out of the net assets of the Company and not from the personal assets of its stockholders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.1(a), the Managing Dealer and each Participating Broker and its or their respective officers, directors, partners, associated persons, and control

-11-

persons shall not be indemnified by the Company for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities laws violations as to the particular indemnitee; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission and of the published position of any securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.

(f) The indemnity provided by this Section 8.1 will be in addition to any liability which a party may otherwise have.

8.2 Contribution and Notices.

(a) If the right to indemnification provided for in Section 8.1 would by its terms be available to a person hereunder (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually, an “Indemnified Party”), but is held to be unavailable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then the Company, the Managing Dealer and the Participating Brokers (collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties” and individually, an “Indemnifying Party”) shall contribute to the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as are contemplated in those paragraphs (including, but not limited to, any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any claim, action, suit or proceeding) in the ratio in which the net proceeds of the Offering of Shares have been actually received and retained by such Indemnifying Party. For purposes of the preceding sentence, proceeds paid to the Managing Dealer under this Agreement and paid by the Managing Dealer to a Participating Broker, shall not be deemed received and retained by the Managing Dealer. However, the right of contribution described in the preceding sentences is subject to the following limitation: No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(b) Any Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification will, promptly after receipt of such notice of commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or claim against him or it in respect of which a claim for contribution or indemnification may be made against another Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying

-12-

Parties, notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties. Failure to so notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise, unless the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced in its ability to defend the action as a result of such delay. If such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties are so notified, such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim at its or their own expense or in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to all parties who may be required to contribute. After notice from such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification of its or their acknowledgement of its or their obligations hereunder and its or their election to assume its or their own defense, the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties so electing shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses of litigation subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification or contribution in connection with the defense thereof, other than the reasonable costs of investigation. No party shall be required to contribute or provide indemnification with respect to the settlement amount of any action or claim settled without its consent.

WHEREAS, the Managing Dealer, which has heretofore entered into a Managing Dealer Agreement with the Company pursuant to which it has been designated the Managing Dealer to sell and manage the sale by others of the Shares pursuant to the terms of such agreement and the Offering, is a corporation incorporated and presently in good standing in the State of Florida, and is presently registered with (i) the authorities administering the securities laws in all fifty states in the United States, the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico; and (ii) the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.

WHEREAS, the Broker is an entity organized and presently in good standing in the state(s) and/or foreign or other jurisdictions in which it does business, presently registered as a broker dealer with FINRA, and presently licensed by the appropriate regulatory agency of each jurisdiction in which it will offer and sell the Shares as a securities broker dealer qualified to offer and sell to members of the public securities of the type represented by the Shares or exempt from all such registration requirements; and

WHEREAS, the Managing Dealer desires to retain the Broker to use its best efforts to sell the Shares, and the Broker is willing and desires to serve as a broker for the Managing Dealer for the sale of the Shares upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

1. Relationship.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Managing Dealer hereby retains the Broker to use its best efforts to sell for the account of the Company all or any portion of the Shares described in the Registration Statement. The Broker hereby accepts such retention and covenants, warrants and agrees to sell the Shares according to all of the terms and conditions of the Registration Statement, all applicable state, federal and other jurisdictional laws, including the 1933 Act, and any and all regulations and rules pertaining thereto, heretofore or hereafter issued by the SEC and FINRA as well as all applicable laws and regulations of foreign jurisdictions. The Broker and its associated persons shall have no authority to give any information or make any representations in connection with any offer or sale of the Shares other than as contained in the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Approved Sales Literature (as defined below), each as amended and supplemented.

(b) The Broker shall use its best efforts, promptly following receipt of written notice from the Managing Dealer of the effective date of the Registration Statement, to sell the Shares to such persons and according to all such terms as are contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. The Broker shall comply with all requirements set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. The Broker shall use and distribute, in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares, only the Prospectus and such sales literature and advertising as shall conform in all respects to any restrictions of local law and the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act, and which has been approved in writing by the Company or the Managing Dealer (“Approved Sales Literature”). The Managing Dealer reserves the right to establish such additional procedures as it may deem necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Registration Statement, and the Broker shall comply with all such additional procedures to the extent that it has received written notice thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2 of this Agreement, in the event that the Managing Dealer pays any commission to the Broker for the sale of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded or rejected as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Managing Dealer shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Broker by the Managing Dealer under this Agreement by an amount equal to the commission rate established in Section 2 of this Agreement, multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded or rejected, as applicable. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the Broker after such withdrawal occurs, the Broker shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Managing Dealer within ten (10) days following mailing of notice to the Broker by the Managing Dealer stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded or rejected subscriptions.

(d) All monies received for the purchase of Shares shall be promptly transmitted by the Broker to the Company’s transfer agent, Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., as set forth in the Prospectus. In order to purchase shares, the subscriber must complete and execute a subscription agreement. Checks may be made payable to the Company in the amount of $10.00 per share, subject to certain discounts as set forth in the Prospectus. Subscription proceeds will not be held in escrow.

(e) The Managing Dealer may authorize the Broker, if its “net capital,” as defined in the applicable federal securities regulations, equals or exceeds $250,000, to instruct its customers to make their payments for Shares subscribed for payable directly to the Broker. In such case, the Broker will collect the proceeds of the subscribers’ payments and issue a payment made payable to the order of the Company for the aggregate amount of the subscription proceeds.

(f) Subscription documents for the Offering (the “Subscription Documents”) will be executed as described in the Prospectus. The Company will accept or reject each subscription within 30 days of receipt thereof. A sale of a Share shall be deemed to be completed if and only if (i) the Company has received a properly completed and executed subscription agreement, together with payment of the full purchase price of each purchased Share, from an investor who satisfies the applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Registration Statement as determined by the Broker in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription; and (iii) such investor has been admitted as a stockholder of the Company. In addition, no sale of Shares shall be completed until at least five business days after the date on which the subscriber receives a copy of the Prospectus.

- 2 -

(g) The Broker hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and no commission will be paid to the Broker with respect to that portion of any subscription which is rejected.

(h) Subscriber monies shall be deposited or transmitted by the Broker to the Company’s transfer agent no later than the close of business of the first business day following their receipt by the Broker; provided, however, if the Broker maintains a branch office, the branch office shall transmit the Subscription Documents and funds to the Broker by the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the branch office and the Broker shall review the Subscription Documents and check to ensure their proper execution and form and, if they are acceptable, transmit the funds to the Company’s transfer agent by the close of business on the first business day after their receipt by the Broker. The Company’s transfer agent will transmit the check or monies to the Company no later than the close of business on the first business day after such funds are received from the Broker.

2. Compensation of Broker.

(a) The Managing Dealer shall pay the Broker, as compensation for services to be rendered by the Broker hereunder, a commission of up to 7.0% on sales of Shares by such Broker, subject to reduction as specified in this Section 2 and the Prospectus. From its marketing support fee, the Managing Dealer may allow up to 1.0% on sales of Shares to any Broker that agrees to use its internal marketing support personnel to assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team and their internal marketing communication tools to promote the Company as set forth below. Such commission rates shall remain in effect during the full term of this Agreement unless otherwise changed by a written agreement between the parties hereto. Such compensation shall be payable to the Broker by the Managing Dealer after such acceptance of the subscription agreement; provided however, that compensation or commissions shall not be paid by the Managing Dealer: (i) other than from funds received as compensation or commissions from the Company for the sale of its Shares; (ii) until any and all compensation or commissions payable by the Company to the Managing Dealer have been received by the Managing Dealer; and (iii) to the extent the commission payable to any broker dealer or salesman exceeds the amount allowed by any regulatory agency. The Broker shall not reallow any commissions to non-FINRA members. The Company (and the Managing Dealer) may pay reduced commissions or may eliminate commissions on certain sales of Shares, including the reduction or elimination of commissions in accordance with the following paragraphs of this Section 2. Any such reduction or elimination of commissions will not, however, change the net proceeds to the Company.

(b) The Broker may withhold the selling commissions to which it is entitled from the purchase price for the Shares in the Offering and forward the balance to the Managing Dealer if it represents to the Managing Dealer that (i) the Broker is legally permitted to do so; (ii) (a) the Broker meets all applicable net capital requirements under the rules of FINRA or other applicable rules regarding such an arrangement; (b) the Broker has forwarded the subscription agreement to the Company and received the Company’s written acceptance of the subscription prior to forwarding the purchase price for the Shares, net of the commissions to which the Broker is entitled, to the Company; and (c) the Broker has verified that there are sufficient funds in the investor’s account with the Broker to cover the entire cost of the subscription; and (iii) the Broker has performed its obligations under paragraph 7(h) of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 2(a) above, the following persons and entities may purchase Shares net of some or all of the 7.0% commission and the 1.0% marketing support fee (but not net of the 2.0% dealer manager fee), at a per Share purchase price of $9.20 (assuming no other discounts apply): (i) A registered principal or representative or associated person of the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker and any employee, officer or director of affiliates of the Managing Dealer or the affiliated entity itself (and the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons); (ii) employees, officers, trustees and directors of the Company, the Advisor or CB Richard Ellis Investors L.L.C., or of the affiliates of either of the foregoing entities (and the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons), and any Plan established exclusively for the benefit of

- 3 -

such persons or entities; (iii) a client of an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws (other than any registered investment advisor that is also registered as a broker dealer, with the exception of clients who have “wrap” accounts which have asset based fees with such dually registered investment advisor/broker dealer); and (iv) a person investing in a bank trust account with respect to which the decision-making authority for investments made has been delegated to the bank trust department. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family members” means such person’s spouse, parents, children, grandparents, grandchildren and any such person who is so related by marriage such that this includes “step-” and “-in law” relations as well as such persons so related by adoption. In addition, Participating Brokers that have a contractual arrangement with their clients for the payment of fees on terms that are inconsistent with the acceptance of all or a portion of the commissions and the marketing support fee may elect not to accept all or a portion of their compensation in the form of commissions and the marketing support fees offered by the Company for Shares that they sell. In that event, such Shares shall be sold to the investor net of some or all of the 7.0% commission and the 1.0% marketing support fee at a per share purchase price as low as $9.20. The amount of proceeds to the Company will not be affected by reducing commissions and marketing support fees payable in connection with sales to investors described in this paragraph.

(d) In connection with the purchase and subsequent purchase of certain minimum numbers of Shares, the amount of commissions otherwise payable may be reduced in accordance with certain discounts for breakpoints for volume purchases as set forth in the Prospectus. It is the Broker’s responsibility to determine which investors qualify (i) for breakpoints; and (ii) as a “single purchaser” as defined in the Prospectus. To the extent an investor qualifies for a volume discount on a particular purchase, such investor’s subsequent purchases, regardless of the Shares subscribed for in such purchases, will also qualify for (i) that volume discount, or (ii) to the extent the subsequent purchase when aggregated with the prior purchases qualifies for a greater volume discount, such greater discounts. Any request to treat a subsequent purchase collectively for purposes of the volume discount must be made by Broker in writing in a form satisfactory to the Managing Dealer and must set forth the basis of such request. Any request to combine more than one subscription must be made in writing in a form satisfactory to the Managing Dealer and must set forth the basis for such request. Any such request will be subject to prior verification by the Broker that all of such subscriptions were made by a single investor. For purposes of volume discounts, all such Shares must be purchased through the same participating broker.

(e) Shareholders who elect to participate in the dividend reinvestment plan as described in the Prospectus will be charged $9.50 per Share or 95% of the fair market value of a Share on the reinvestment date, as determined by CBRE Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), or another firm the Company may choose for such purpose, and no commissions or marketing support fees will be paid to the Broker in connection with any Shares so purchased.

(f) Eligibility to receive the marketing support fee is conditioned upon the Broker’s compliance with one or more of the following conditions. Any determination regarding the Broker’s compliance with the listed conditions will be made by the Managing Dealer, in its sole discretion.

(1) The Broker has internal marketing support personnel (telemarketers, marketing director, etc.) who assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team;

(2) The Broker has and uses internal marketing communications vehicle(s) to promote the Company. Vehicles may include, but are not restricted to, newsletters, conference calls, cassette tapes, internal mail, etc.;

(3) The Broker will respond to investors’ inquiries concerning monthly statements, valuations, distribution rates, tax information, annual reports, reinvestment and redemption rights and procedures, the financial status of the Company and the real estate markets in which the Company has invested;

(4) The Broker will assist investors with reinvestments and redemptions; and/or

- 4 -

The Broker will provide other services requested by investors from time to time and will maintain the technology necessary to adequately service investors.

(g) The Managing Dealer will reimburse the Participating Broker for bona fide due diligence expenses incurred by the Participating Broker in connection with the Offering. Such due diligence expense reimbursements are limited to the amount the Managing Dealer is reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the Managing Dealer Agreement.

3. Association with Other Dealers

It is expressly understood between the Managing Dealer and the Broker that the Managing Dealer may cooperate with other broker dealers who are registered as broker dealers with FINRA and duly licensed by the appropriate regulatory agency of each jurisdiction in which they will offer and sell the Shares or with broker dealers exempt from all such registration requirements. Such other participating broker dealers may be retained by the Managing Dealer as brokers on terms and conditions identical or similar to this Agreement and shall receive such rates of commission as are agreed to between the Managing Dealer and the respective other participating broker dealers and as are in accordance with the terms of the Registration Statement. The Broker understands that, to that extent, such other participating broker dealers shall compete with the Broker in the sale of the Shares.

4. Conditions of the Broker’s Obligations.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Broker agrees not to publish, circulate or otherwise use any other advertisement or solicitation material other than the Prospectus and Approved Sales Literature.

- 11 -

(d) If the right to indemnification provided for in this Section 9 would by its terms be available to a person hereunder (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually, an “Indemnified Party”), but is held to be unavailable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason other than because of the terms of such indemnification provision, then the Company, the Managing Dealer and the Broker (collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties” and individually, an “Indemnifying Party”) shall contribute to the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as are contemplated in those paragraphs (including, but not limited to, any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any claim, action, suit or proceeding) in the ratio in which the net proceeds of the Offering of Shares have been actually received and retained by such Indemnifying Party.

If such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties are so notified, such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim at its or their own expense or in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to all parties who may be required to contribute. After notice from such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification of its or their acknowledgement of its or their obligations hereunder and its or their election to assume its or their own defense, the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties so electing shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses of litigation subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification or contribution in connection with the defense thereof, other than the reasonable costs of investigation. No party shall be required to contribute or provide indemnification with respect to the settlement amount of any action or claim settled without its consent.
