Note 9. Related Party Transactions

Fees to Affiliates

In connection with our Public Offering, we entered into an advisory agreement with our Advisor (as amended, the “Advisory Agreement”) which entitles our Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the Public Offering and investment of funds in real estate properties, among other services, as well as reimbursement for organization and offering costs incurred by our Advisor on our behalf and reimbursement of certain costs and expenses incurred by our Advisor in providing services to us.

The transfer agent agreement (the “Transfer Agent Agreement”) entitles our Former Transfer Agent to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the Public Offering, among other services, as well as reimbursement for certain costs and expenses incurred by our Former Transfer Agent in providing services to us.

Advisory Agreement

We do not have any employees. Our Advisor is primarily responsible for managing our business affairs and carrying out the directives of our board of directors. Our Advisor receives various fees and expenses under the terms of our Advisory Agreement. As discussed above, we are required to reimburse our Advisor for certain organization and offering costs from the Offerings.

Prior to the amendment of the Advisory Agreement on September 6, 2018 (the “AA Amendment”), our Advisor received acquisition fees equal to 1.75% of the contract purchase price of each property we acquired. The AA Amendment eliminated such acquisition fees. On July 10, 2019, we entered into another amendment to the Advisory Agreement (the “Second AA Amendment”). Pursuant to the Second AA Amendment, our Advisor may be entitled to an acquisition fee (the “Contingent Acquisition Fee”) with respect to acquisitions made subsequent to July 10, 2019, subject to us satisfying certain stockholder return thresholds or if the Advisory Agreement is terminated for any reason other than our Advisor’s fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence before July 10, 2029. After we pay stockholders total distributions equal to their invested capital, plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded annual return on invested capital, we will pay our Advisor a contingent acquisition fee equal to 1% of the Contract Purchase Price (as defined in the Second AA Amendment) of each property or other real estate investment we acquire after July 10, 2019; and after we pay stockholders total distributions equal to their invested capital, plus a 13% cumulative, non-compounded annual return on invested capital, we will pay our Advisor an additional contingent acquisition fee equal to 2% of the Contract Purchase Price of each property or other real estate investment we acquire after July 10, 2019. Our Advisor also receives reimbursement of any acquisition expenses our Advisor incurs pursuant to the Advisory Agreement.

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, effective May 1, 2018, our Advisor is entitled to receive a monthly asset management fee. This fee was initially equal to 0.05208% (which is one twelfth of 0.625%) of our average invested assets, as defined by the Advisory Agreement, but the AA Amendment later increased this fee to 0.066667% (which is one twelfth of 0.8%) of our average invested assets. Our Advisor will not receive financing fees pursuant to the Advisory Agreement.

Pursuant to the Second AA Amendment, our Advisor may be entitled to disposition fees generally equal to the lesser of (a) 1% of the Contract Sales Price or (b) 50% of the Competitive Real Estate Commission (as defined in the Second AA Amendment). In conjunction with the sale of the Fayetteville Property in July 2024, an approximately $0.4 million disposition fee was paid to our Sponsor in accordance with the Second AA Amendment.

Our Advisor may also be entitled to various subordinated distributions under our operating partnership agreement if we (1) list our shares of common stock on a national exchange, (2) do not renew or terminate the Advisory Agreement, (3) liquidate our portfolio or (4) effect a merger or other corporate reorganization.

The Advisory Agreement provides for reimbursement of our Advisor’s direct and indirect costs of providing administrative and management services to us. Beginning four fiscal quarters after commencement of the Public Offering, pursuant to our Advisory Agreement, our Advisor is required to pay or reimburse us the amount by which our aggregate annual operating expenses, as defined, exceed the greater of 2% of our average invested assets or 25% of our net income, as defined, unless a majority of our independent directors determine that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For any fiscal quarter for which total operating expenses for the 12 months then ended exceed the limitation, we will disclose this fact in our next quarterly report or within 60 days of the end of that quarter and send a written disclosure of this fact to our stockholders. In each case the disclosure will include an explanation of the factors that the independent directors considered in arriving at the conclusion that the excess expenses were justified. As of June 30, 2025, our aggregate annual operating expenses, as defined, did not exceed the thresholds described above.

Transfer Agent Agreement

Our Sponsor is the owner and manager of our Former Transfer Agent, which is a registered transfer agent with the SEC. Effective in May 2018, our Former Transfer Agent processed subscription agreements and certain other forms directly, as well as provided customer service to our stockholders. These services include, among other things, processing payment of any sales commission and dealer manager fees associated with a particular purchase, as well as processing the distributions and any servicing fees with respect to our shares. Additionally, our Former Transfer Agent may retain and supervise third party vendors in its efforts to administer certain services. Our Former Transfer Agent also conducted transfer agent and registrar services for other non-traded REITs sponsored by an affiliate of our Sponsor.

Fees paid to our Former Transfer Agent were based on a fixed quarterly fee, one-time account setup fees, monthly open account fees, one-time transfer fees, monthly portal fees, and investor telephone call fees. In addition, we reimbursed

our Former Transfer Agent for all reasonable expenses or other changes incurred by it in connection with the provision of its services to us, and we paid our Former Transfer Agent fees for any additional services we requested from time to time, in accordance with its rates then in effect. Upon the request of our Former Transfer Agent, we also advanced payment for substantial reasonable out-of-pocket expenditures incurred by it.

The initial term of the Transfer Agent Agreement was three years, which term will be automatically renewed for one year successive terms, but either party may terminate the Former Transfer Agent Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice. In the event that we terminate the Transfer Agent Agreement, other than for cause, we will pay our Former Transfer Agent all amounts that would have otherwise accrued during the remaining term of the Transfer Agent Agreement; provided, however, that when calculating the remaining months in the term for such purposes, such term is deemed to be a 12 month period starting from the date of the most recent annual anniversary date. Our Chairman of the Board of Directors is also the Chief Executive Officer and indirect owner of the parent company of our former transfer agent, Strategic Transfer Agent Services, LLC. Pursuant to a transfer agent agreement, our former transfer agent provided transfer agent and registrar services to us. The services our transfer agent provided us were substantially similar to what a third party transfer agent would provide in the ordinary course of performing its functions as a transfer agent. In connection with the transfer to SS&C GIDS, Inc. as our new transfer agent, we terminated the transfer agent agreement with our former transfer agent effective as of January 27, 2025. In lieu of a termination fee and in recognition of the additional cost and expenses incurred by our former transfer agent in connection with the transition, we paid our former transfer agent a transition fee of $50,000.

Property Managers

Pursuant to our Advisory Agreement, our Advisor is responsible for overseeing any third party property managers or operators and may delegate such responsibility to its affiliates. Our Advisor has assigned such oversight responsibilities to our Property Manager. Currently, we expect to rely on a third party property manager and senior housing operator to manage and operate our properties. We pay our Property Manager an oversight fee equal to 1% of the gross revenues attributable to such properties; provided, however, that our Property Manager will receive an oversight fee equal to 1.5% of the gross revenues attributable to any senior housing property other than such properties that are leased to third party tenants under triple-net or similar lease structures. In the event any of our properties are managed directly by our Property Manager, we will pay our Property Manager a property management fee that is approved by a majority of our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors not otherwise interested in such transaction, as being fair and reasonable to us and on terms and conditions not less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties.
