Section 2.1. Cost of Construction - Reimbursement of Contractor. For
construction of the Structures in the aggregate and other improvements and payment of all of the costs and expenses thereof, Contractor shall be paid the sum of $4,878,000.00 (the “Contractor’s Fee”), subject to the provisions of
Section 2.4. The Contractor’s Fee shall be payable to Contractor within five days after the end of each calendar month for work performed during such month as the construction of the Structures progresses, based upon payment requests certified
by Contractor. All monthly payments made to Contractor shall be subject to a 10% retention by Owner. The cost and expense of construction referred to in the prior sentence shall mean all actual costs incident to the proper performance of the work
during the construction phase of the Structures and in readying the Structures for occupancy and operation which are paid or incurred by or on behalf of the Contractor, including, without limitation, all building materials and supplies, and costs of
the parking lot, swimming pool, fitness center and equipment, driveways, acceleration/deceleration lanes, curbs and gutters, furniture, fixtures, equipment and the sign to be erected on each Property, all in accordance with the Plans and the
applicable Exhibit B. Owner hereby agrees that, within 60 days after receipt of Contractor’s certification of completion and other documents required pursuant to Section 2.2, payment will be made to Contractor of the balance of the
Contractor’s Fee (including all amounts retained by Owner) due hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2 below; provided, however, it is contemplated that the Owner may contribute a particular Property to a wholly owned subsidiary
which in turn may contribute the Property to a partnership for which such subsidiary serves as managing general partner (the “Partnership”) upon completion of the Structure and such wholly owned subsidiary and/or the Partnership may assume
the Owner’s obligations hereunder. Contractor expressly covenants that if the total costs and expense of construction of the Structures in accordance with the Plans (subject to approved Change Orders) exceed the Contractor’s Fee,
Contractor has an independent obligation to pay such excess amounts out of its own funds without
2
any right of reimbursement or repayment from the Owner. For purposes of making payments hereunder based on completion of a Structure, the amount
to be held back with respect to each Project and to establish a pro rata cost of each Structure, the Contractor’s Fee shall be allocated to each Property as set forth in Exhibit C hereto.
Section 2.2. Contractor’s Certification of Completion. The Contractor shall, upon final completion of its work
hereunder in accordance with the Plans and the applicable Exhibit B and any agreed modification thereof, submit a written request to the Owner for final inspection. Within ten days following the request for final inspection, the Owner and Contractor
shall make a joint inspection of the work and Owner shall furnish Contractor detailed written lists, if any, of any variances in construction of the Structures from the requirements of the Plans, including the identification of any work that does
not meet the standards of performance required under the terms of this Contract, Exhibits B-1 and B-2, and the Plans.
Upon receipt of the written list of incomplete work or defects, the Contractor shall immediately remedy such variances or defects in a workmanlike manner, or notify the Owner upon receipt of such lists that it does not consider the
specified item to be a variance or defect. All disputed items will be submitted in writing to the Architect who shall render a decision as soon as practicable, which decision will be binding on both parties.
When the Contractor and Owner have agreed that the written list of incomplete work or defects has been completed in a workmanlike manner,
the Contractor shall certify in writing to the Owner the completion of the Structure and furnish the Owner a sworn statement executed by Contractor certifying that there are no liens or rights of liens against the Structure or the Property as a
result of the work performed by or on behalf of the Contractor hereunder and shall deliver waivers or releases of all lien rights duly executed by all subcontractors and suppliers who furnished labor or materials for the work.
Section 2.3. Construction Period Interest. The Contractor shall reimburse the
Owner out of the Contractor’s Fee an amount equal to (i) all interest incurred by the Owner on amounts borrowed by Owner to finance the purchase of each Property and the construction of the Structure thereon for the period commencing upon the
date Owner purchases the Property and ending on the date Contractor certifies completion of the Structure pursuant to Section 2.2 above plus (ii) all fees charged by Owner’ s lender to provide construction financing for the Project; provided
further, if Owner uses its own funds to purchase the Property or pay construction costs in lieu of borrowing funds from a third party, Contractor shall pay owner interest on such funds at the same rate charged to Owner on funds borrowed from its
primary lenders. Contractor shall reimburse or pay Owner for such interest upon completion of the Structures.
Section 2.4. Profit Limitation. If the total costs incurred by Contractor for the work performed under this Contract are less than an amount equal to 90% of the Contractor’s Fee,
Contractor shall rebate to Owner that portion of the Contractor’s Fee which is in excess of 110% of the total costs incurred by Contractor for the work performed under this Contract. For purposes of this Section 2.4, costs incurred by
Contractor for work performed under this Contract shall include all costs that can be capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (including, but not limited to, an allocation of Contractor’s general and
administrative overhead costs and the construction period interest reimbursed to Owner) and such other general and administrative
3
costs properly allocable to the Project, but not capitalized. Owner shall have the right, at its expense, to audit the records of Contractor to
verify the costs and overhead incurred by Contractor for the work performed under this Contract.
ARTICLE III

Section 3.1. Materials and Labor of Workmanlike Quality. All materials and equipment to be furnished by the Contractor in the performance of this Contract will be of good
quality and new, unless otherwise specified in Exhibit ▇-▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇-▇, or the Plans. All work and labor of the Contractor and its subcontractors will be performed in a workmanlike manner utilizing a qualified and experienced work force.
Section 3.2. Furnishing Scaffolding, Tools and
Machinery. Contractor will provide at its sole cost and expense all scaffolding, tools and machinery necessary for the performance of Contractor’s work hereunder.

receipt from each third party, all proper invoices, bills and statements of any subcontractor or materialman performing work upon the Structure or supplying materials to the Property, subject to Contractor’s right to contest in good faith the
amount it believes to be due through appropriate proceedings. Contractor warrants that upon completion, the Structure and the Property will be free from any materialmen’s or mechanics’ liens or other lienable claims other than those it has
discharged as a lien against the Property and has chosen to contest in good faith.
Section
3.4. Subcontractors’ Compliance with Plans. Contractor specifically agrees that any and all subcontractors and materialmen which Contractor uses in the construction of the Structure shall comply with
the Plans and any modifications thereof made in accordance with this Contract.

all building permits necessary to commence the respective Project. The time for completion by Contractor may be extended beyond the 180 day period where delay and work stoppages are occasioned by adverse weather conditions, strikes, acts of God,
labor or material shortages or other causes beyond the Contractor’s control and which it is unable to avoid in the exercise of reasonable and due diligence. Such completion time will also be extended where additional time is required to
complete any alterations or modifications made by agreement of the parties in the plans, blueprints, or specifications after commencement of construction. Such time will also be extended where delays are occasioned in the performance of the
Contractor’s work by the unreasonable acts of the Owner or Owner’s agents. Any extension of time of completion for any of the causes herein enumerated shall be reasonable considering the type of work to be performed and the cause for
delay. In the event that the parties cannot agree to a mutually agreeable extension, the dispute shall be submitted to the Architect for resolution as provided in Section 2.2 above.

Contractor’s Fee as herein set forth. All written change orders shall be dated and attached to this Contract as an additional exhibit or addendum thereto and shall be made a part hereof. The provisions of this Contract shall apply to all
additions, deletions, omissions or substitutions with the same effect as if such were embodied in the original the Plans. No claim for any additions, deletions, omissions or substitutions to this Contract or delay in completion attributable to any
