Ladies and Gentlemen:
SC Distributors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Dealer Manager”), has entered into an agreement dated as of December 28, 2012 (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”), with RREEF Property Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and RREEF Property Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) that serves as the Company’s operating partnership subsidiary and of which the Company is the sole general partner. Under the Dealer Manager Agreement, the Dealer Manager serves as the Company’s exclusive Dealer Manager in connection with a public offering (the “Offering”) of the Company’s common stock consisting of: (a) up to $2,250,000,000 in any combination of Class A Shares and Class B Shares being offered to the public pursuant to the Company’s primary offering (the “Primary Shares”); and (b) up to $250,000,000 in any combination of Class A Shares and Class B Shares being offered to stockholders of the Company pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (together with the Primary Shares, the “Offered Shares”). The differences between the Class A Shares and the Class B Shares, including without limitation that selling commissions shall only be paid on Class A Shares, and the eligibility requirements for each class are described in detail in the Prospectus. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Dealer Manager Agreement.
The Primary Shares are being issued and sold to the public on a “best efforts” basis through the Dealer Manager and the broker-dealers and other appropriately licensed firms participating in the Offering (the “Participating Broker-Dealers”), pursuant to Participating Broker-Dealer Agreements between the Dealer Manager and each Participating Broker-Dealer (each, a “Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement”). The form of the Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement used by the Dealer Manager is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Wholesaling Agreement (this “Agreement”):
1.Appointment and Acceptance of the Wholesaler

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Realty Capital Securities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Wholesaler”), hereby is appointed, with the consent of the Company, as evidenced by its execution hereof, and hereby accepts such appointment, as the Dealer Manager’s distribution agent to assist, through the Wholesaler’s employees, agents, contractors, registered representatives and all other representatives who will perform services hereunder (collectively, the “RCS Service Providers”), the Dealer Manager with the sale of Primary Shares through the recruitment of, and the provision of assistance to, Participating Broker-Dealers, and the Wholesaler desires to accept such engagement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to: (i) contravene the Company’s appointment of the Dealer Manager as its exclusive agent and dealer manager during the Offering Period, and the Dealer Manager’s acceptance of such appointment, pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Dealer Manager Agreement; or (ii)





imply that the Dealer Manager shall not have sole discretion to accept or reject any subscription for the Primary Shares in whole or in part.
2.Undertakings of the Wholesaler
(a)The Wholesaler will use diligent efforts to recruit certain broker-dealers and other appropriately licensed firms to serve as Participating Broker-Dealers, each of which shall be a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) in good standing, to agree to offer and sell the Primary Shares on a best efforts basis without any commitment on the Participating Broker-Dealers’ part to purchase any Primary Shares pursuant to a Participating Broker-Dealer Agreement with the Dealer Manager.
(b)The Wholesaler will use diligent efforts to assist the Dealer Manager in providing certain services to Participating Broker-Dealers in connection with the Offering, which will consist primarily of:

(iv)furnishing Authorized Sales Material and Prospectuses to Participating Broker-Dealers and their registered representatives; and
(v)such other assistance to Participating Broker-Dealers and their registered representatives in marketing the Primary Shares and otherwise participating in the Offering as shall be reasonably determined to be appropriate by the chief executive officer or such other representative of the Dealer Manager as shall be authorized, in writing or otherwise, by the chief executive officer of the Dealer Manager to make certain determinations required to be made under this Agreement (the “Dealer Manager Representative”) after good faith consultation with the chief executive officer, or such other representative of the Wholesaler as shall be authorized, in writing or otherwise, by the chief executive officer of the Wholesaler to make certain determinations required to be made under this Agreement (the “Wholesaler Representative” and, together with the Dealer Manager Representative, the “Representatives”).
(c)The Wholesaler acknowledges that it is familiar with FINRA Rule 2310 and that it will comply in all material respects with all the terms thereof to the extent FINRA Rule 2310 applies to the conduct contemplated herein.

3.Compensation and Expense Reimbursement
(a)In consideration for the Wholesaler performing its obligations under this Agreement, the Dealer Manager shall pay the Wholesaler a sourcing fee (the “Sourcing Fee”) that accrues daily equal to (i) 1/365th of 0.55% of the Company’s NAV allocable to the Company’s outstanding Primary Shares for such day, multiplied by (ii) the percentage equal to the number of Primary Shares sold by Participating Broker-Dealers, which sales resulted primarily from the efforts of RCS Service Providers (“RCS Sales”) outstanding on such day divided by the total number of Primary Shares outstanding on such day (the “Pro Rata Share”); provided, however, the Sourcing Fee shall be payable solely from that portion of the Dealer Manager Fee that is (i)





actually received by the Dealer Manager from the Company pursuant to Section 5.2(c) of the Dealer Manager Agreement, and (ii) not reallowed to any Participating Broker-Dealer pursuant to Section 5.2(c) of the Dealer Manager Agreement (a “Sourcing Fee Reallowance”) in respect of any RCS Sales.

(i)The Wholesaler shall under no circumstances engage in any activities hereunder in any jurisdiction (i) in which the Dealer Manager has not informed the Wholesaler that counsel’s advice has been received that the Offered Shares are qualified for sale or are exempt under the applicable securities or Blue Sky laws thereof, or (ii) in which the Wholesaler may not lawfully engage.
(j)The Wholesaler shall comply, in all material respects, with all applicable laws, and the applicable rules and regulations of FINRA, the SEC, state securities administrators and any other applicable regulatory body in connection with the Offering.
(k)Without the Company’s prior written consent, neither the Wholesaler nor any current or future subsidiary of RCAP, in each case in such person’s capacity as a wholesale broker-dealer, which in any event shall not include RCS Capital, the investment banking and capital markets division of Realty Capital Securities, LLC (collectively, the “Covered Parties”), will serve as distribution agent or otherwise participate in a selling group distributing securities in the U.S. retail investor market for any other fund, limited liability company, partnership or other investment vehicle investing, or intending to invest, primarily in a multi-sector, diversified portfolio of real estate properties located in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision of exclusivity (the “Wholesaler Exclusivity”) shall not be construed to prohibit the Covered Parties from distributing, or participating in the distribution of, securities, including any follow-on offerings, for any fund, limited liability company, partnership or other investment vehicle of which any Covered Party is distributing or participating in an offering that does not invest, or intends to invest, primarily in a multi-sector, diversified portfolio of real estate properties located in the United States, including, without limitation, the products listed on Schedule 8(k) hereto. Nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit affiliated retail broker-dealers of RCAP, other than the Wholesaler, whether now owned or hereafter acquired from entering into selling agreements with respect to any issuer.





The Wholesaler Exclusivity will terminate upon termination of this Agreement.
(l)The Wholesaler possesses, and shall maintain, sufficient staff, infrastructure, information technology capability and facilities to provide the services to be provided by the Wholesaler pursuant to this Agreement and of the type customarily provided by distribution agents of similar investment products.
(m)The Wholesaler will assist the Dealer Manager with its obligations under Section 4.15(c) of the Dealer Manager Agreement to provide the reports set forth on Schedule 2 to the Dealer Manager Agreement and such other reports as are reasonably requested by the Company.
(n)The Wholesaler will perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the same ethical and business standards as those standards that the Wholesaler uses to perform its obligations under similar agreements entered into in connection with RCS Platform Offerings and as are customary and reasonable in the Wholesaler’s industry.
(o)The Wholesaler will provide the Dealer Manager within 15 days after the end of each calendar month a written schedule of all underwriting compensation (as defined pursuant to applicable FINRA rules) that the Wholesaler has paid related to the Offering during such month, which written schedules shall be true and complete in all material respects. Upon notice provided by the Dealer Manager, the Wholesaler will terminate any underwriting compensation in excess of the Sourcing Fee.
9.Indemnification; Contribution
(a)The Dealer Manager will indemnify, defend (subject to Section 7.6 of the Dealer Manager Agreement) and hold harmless the Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, other equity-holders and control persons (collectively, the “Other Indemnified Parties”), from and against any losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), to which the Wholesaler, its affiliates or their respective Other Indemnified Parties may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein by the Dealer Manager, any breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein of the Dealer Manager, or any failure by the Dealer Manager to comply with state or federal securities law applicable to the Offering; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any (A) Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any amendment of or supplement to the Prospectus, (B) Authorized Sales Materials, or (C) blue sky application or other document executed by the Company or the Operating Partnership (or on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership) specifically for the purpose of qualifying any of or all the Offered Shares for sale under the securities laws of any jurisdiction or based upon written information furnished by the Dealer Manager under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”), but only to the extent based upon written information furnished by the Dealer Manager; or (iii) any omission or alleged omission of the Dealer Manager to state a material fact required to be stated in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that that the indemnity provided for in clauses (ii) and (iii) above strictly is limited in each case to the extent and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Dealer Manager that was furnished to the Company by the Dealer Manager expressly for use in the preparation of any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The Dealer Manager will reimburse the Wholesaler and its Other Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective Other Indemnified Parties in connection with





investigating or defending such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Dealer Manager otherwise may have.
(b)Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend (subject to Section 7.6 of the Dealer Manager Agreement) and hold harmless the Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective Other Indemnified Parties, from and against from and against any losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), to which the Wholesaler, its affiliates or any of their respective Other Indemnified Parties may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein by the Company or the Operating Partnership, any breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein of the Company or the Operating Partnership, or any failure by the Company or the Operating Partnership to comply with state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any (A) Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, (B) Authorized Sales Materials, or (C) Blue Sky Application but only to the extent based on information provided by the Company or the Operating Partnership; or (iii) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company or the Operating Partnership will not be liable in any such case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) arises out of, or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission that was made in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Wholesaler or the Dealer Manager that was furnished by the Wholesaler or the Dealer Manager expressly for use in the preparation of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or the Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The Company and the Operating Partnership will reimburse the Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective Other Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Wholesaler and its Other Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company or the Operating Partnership otherwise may have.
(c)The Wholesaler will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Dealer Manager, the Company, the Operating Partnership and their respective Other Indemnified Parties, from and against any losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), to which the Dealer Manager, the Company, the Operating Partnership and any of their respective Other Indemnified Parties may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein by the Wholesaler, any breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein of the Wholesaler, or any failure by the Wholesaler to comply with state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering; (ii) any untrue statement or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto; or (iii) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided, however, that the indemnity provided for in clauses (ii) and (iii) above strictly is limited in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or in any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Wholesaler that





was furnished to the Company by the Wholesaler expressly for use in the preparation of any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or any Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The Wholesaler will reimburse the Dealer Manager, the Company, the Operating Partnership and their respective Other Indemnified Parties for legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Wholesaler may otherwise have.
(d)Any party which proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 9 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim of a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) is made or is to be made against an indemnified party under this Section 9, notify each indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, and the failure so to notify such indemnifying party of any such action, suit or proceeding shall relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 9 to the extent, and only to the extent, that such failure was prejudicial to the indemnifying party. In no event shall any such failure relieve an indemnifying party of any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9. In case any such action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party, and such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying part of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, if it shall wish to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of the election of the indemnifying party so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation requested by the indemnifying party subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ its counsel in any such action, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment by counsel by such indemnified party has been authorized by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party shall have reasonable concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in the conduct of the defense of such action (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit or proceeding in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party shall so assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, then the indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party reasonably apprised of the status thereof and shall furnish the indemnified party with such documents and information filed or delivered in connection with the Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnified party unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (A) provides for the payment of money by the indemnifying party as sole relief for the claimant, (B) subject to the making of such payment, results in the full and general release of all indemnified parties from all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities (including any investigatory, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) arising from or relating to the Third Party Claim, and (C) does not require an indemnified party to admit criminal or similar liability or other culpable conduct. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party may defend the Third Party Claim, but the indemnified party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(e)To the extent Section II.G. of the NASAA REIT Guidelines would apply to this Agreement and as required thereby, the indemnification and agreement to hold harmless provided in this Section 9 is further limited to the extent that no such indemnification by the Dealer Manager, the Company or the Operating Partnership of the Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective Other Indemnified Parties, shall be permitted under this Agreement for, or arising out of, an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws,





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 law 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 the particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which the securities were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.
(f)If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a), 9(b) or 9(c), then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in Section 9(a), 9(b) or 9(c) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of a particular party, on the one hand, and the other parties hereto, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by a particular party, on the one hand, and the other parties hereto, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9(f) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this Section 9(f). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9(f) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9(f).
10.Relationship of Wholesaler, Participating Broker-Dealers and the Dealer Manager
(a)The obligations of each of the Wholesaler and the Participating Broker‑Dealers are several and not joint. Nothing herein contained shall constitute the Wholesaler and the Participating Broker-Dealers, or any of them, as an association, partnership, unincorporated business or other separate entity. The Dealer Manager and the Company shall be under no liability to the Wholesaler except for lack of good faith and for obligations expressly assumed by the Dealer Manager and the Company in this Agreement.
(b)The parties hereto acknowledge that, other than as expressly set forth herein, the Wholesaler is not authorized to act as agent of the Dealer Manager or the Company in any connection or transaction, and the Wholesaler agrees that it will not so act or purport to so act.
(c)The parties hereto acknowledge that the Wholesaler’s obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation the Wholesaler Exclusivity have no impact on, and in no way release the Dealer Manager from, the Dealer Manager’s obligations and rights to act as the exclusive agent and dealer manager for the Company pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Dealer Manager Agreement.
11.Termination
(a)[Intentionally Omitted]
(b)This Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of the Offering.





(c)Any party may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving ten days’ prior written notice thereof to the other parties hereto. This Agreement automatically shall terminate with no further action by any party hereto if the Wholesaler or the Dealer Manager ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA, or with the securities commission of the state in which its principal office is located. The Wholesaler will notify the Dealer Manager immediately if the Wholesaler ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA or with the securities commission of any state in which the Wholesaler is currently registered or licensed. The Dealer Manager will notify the Wholesaler immediately if the Dealer Manager ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA or with the securities commission of any state in which the Dealer Manager is currently registered or licensed.
(d)In the event of termination under Section 11(b), the Dealer Manager will continue to pay the Sourcing Fees to the Wholesaler and reimburse costs and expenses incurred, to the extent reimbursable under Section 3(c), for so long as Primary Shares remain outstanding (it being understood and agreed that the calculation of the Sourcing Fees in such event shall take into account the number of Primary Shares sold primarily from the efforts of RCS Service Providers in the Offering). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Dealer Manager will not continue to pay the Sourcing Fee to the Wholesaler and reimburse costs and expenses related to the Offering incurred by the Wholesaler pursuant to Section 3(c) subsequent to the termination of the Offering to the extent, but only to the extent, that such payments or reimbursements would cause the total underwriting compensation (as defined in accordance with applicable FINRA rules) paid with respect to the Offering to exceed 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares calculated as of the termination of the Offering.
(e)The termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not affect (i) the Wholesaler’s obligations under the second sentence of Section 10(a), (ii) the indemnification obligations under Section 9, or (iii) this Section 11. Without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement with respect to any matter arising while this Agreement was in effect.
(f)If the Dealer Manager is entitled to receive a Termination Fee pursuant to Section 14.4 of the Dealer Manager Agreement (and as defined therein), the Wholesaler shall be entitled to receive from the Dealer Manager a Pro Rata Share of such Termination Fee.
12.Amendment
(a)The Dealer Manager has the right, subject to written consent from the other parties hereto which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to amend this Agreement as necessary, in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Dealer Manager, to comply with applicable law or the requirements of any governmental or self-regulatory body or agency.
(b)This Agreement may not otherwise be amended, supplemented or waived except by the express written consent of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement may be implied from any course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto or from any failure by any party hereto to assert its rights under this Agreement on any occasion or series of occasions.
13.Miscellaneous
(a)No party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.
(b)All notices, requests, demands, approvals, consents, waivers and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement (each, a “Notice”) shall be in writing and shall be (i) delivered personally, (ii) mailed by first-class, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) sent by next-day or overnight mail or delivery, or (iv) sent by facsimile transmission (provided,
