acknowledge and agree that one of the Parties may bring all or a larger portion of the sums required for the
equity portion of the capital raise for a project undertaking. Therefore, the respective ownership interests of
the Parties in each PROPCO are subject to change and will be determined after the property is sourced and
prior to the finalization of all contractual arrangements. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they shall
fairly and equitably balance the respective interests of the Parties in making a determination as to PROPCO
equity interest allocations. In making a determination as to percentage interest allocation, there are a number
of variables that are to be considered, including but not limited to: the effort made to source capital to finance
the deal; whether a Party’s balance sheet is required as collateral for a loan; and/or whether a Party has made
a direct capital contribution to the capital stack. The chart attached hereto as Exhibit A sets forth the manner
in which the Parties shall equitably allocate ownership interests for PROPCO undertakings and establishes a
baseline for percentage interest calculation.
