No selling commissions, dealer manager fee or other organizational and offering expenses will be paid for shares sold pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan.
The terms of the dealer manager agreement were approved by our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors.
Subject to certain limitations including those set forth in our charter, we will agree to indemnify D.H.
