additional information about the prospective nominee&rsquo;s background and experience and to report its findings to the Governance and
Nominating Committee. The Governance and Nominating Committee will then evaluate the prospective nominee against the standards

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Section 16(a) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company&rsquo;s directors, executive officers and any persons holding 10% or more
of the Company&rsquo;s shares of Common Stock are required to report their ownership of the Company&rsquo;s shares of Common Stock
and any changes in that ownership to the SEC on specified report forms. Specific due dates for these reports have been established,
and the Company is required to report any failure to file by these dates during each fiscal year. All of these filing requirements
were satisfied by the Company&rsquo;s directors and executive officers and holders of more than 10% of the Company&rsquo;s Common
Stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. In making these statements, the Company has relied upon the written representations
of its directors and executive officers and the holders of 10% or more of the Company&rsquo;s Common Stock and copies of the reports
that each has filed with the SEC.</P>

of the independent registered public accountants included in their report on the Audit Committee&rsquo;s financial statements.</P>

of the Company&rsquo;s financial statements, the Audit Committee reviews and discusses with both management and the Company&rsquo;s
independent registered public accountants all annual and quarterly financial statements prior to their issuance. During 2015, management
advised the Audit Committee that each set of financial statements reviewed had been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, and reviewed significant accounting and disclosure issues with the Audit Committee.
These reviews include discussions with the independent accountants of the matters required to be discussed pursuant to Statement
on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards), including the quality (not merely the acceptability)
of the Company&rsquo;s accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, the clarity of disclosures in the financial
statements and disclosures related to critical accounting practices. The Audit Committee has also discussed with Farmer, Fuqua
&amp; Huff, P.C. matters relating to its independence, including a review of audit and non-audit fees, and written disclosures
from Farmer, Fuqua &amp; Huff, P.C. to the Company pursuant to Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions
with Audit Committees). The Audit Committee also considered whether non-audit services, provided by the independent accountants
are compatible with the independent accountant&rsquo;s independence. The Company also received regular updates on the amount of
fees and scope of audit, audit related and tax services provided.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Under the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (the &ldquo;SO Act&rdquo;) and the rules of the SEC, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for
the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor. The purpose of the provisions of the SO Act
and the SEC rules for the Audit Committee role in retaining the independent auditor is twofold. First, the authority and responsibility
for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the auditors should be with directors who are independent of management. Second,
any non-audit work performed by the auditors should be reviewed and approved by these same independent directors to ensure that
any non-audit services performed by the auditor do not impair the independence of the independent auditor. To implement the provisions
of the SO Act, the SEC issued rules specifying the types of services that an independent auditor may not provide to its audit client,
and governing the Audit Committee&rsquo;s administration of the engagement of the independent auditor. As part of this responsibility,
the Audit Committee is required to preapprove the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to
assure that they do not impair the auditor&rsquo;s independence. Accordingly, the Audit Committee has adopted a written pre-approval
policy for audit and non-audit services (the &ldquo;Policy&rdquo;), which sets forth the procedures and conditions pursuant to
which services to be performed by the independent auditor are to be preapproved. Consistent with the SEC rules establishing two
different approaches to approving non-prohibited services, the policy of the Audit Committee covers pre-approval of audit services,
audit related services, international administration tax services, non-U.S. income tax compliance services, pension and benefit
plan consulting and compliance services, and U.S. tax compliance and planning. At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Audit
Committee will evaluate other known potential engagements of the independent auditor, including the scope of work proposed to be
performed and the proposed fees, and approve or reject each service, taking into account whether services are permissible under
applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent auditor&rsquo;s independence from management.
Typically, in addition to the generally preapproved services, other services would include due diligence for an acquisition that
may or may not have been known at the beginning of the year. The Audit Committee has also delegated to any member of the Audit
Committee designated by the Board or the financial expert member of the Audit Committee responsibilities to preapprove services
to be performed by the independent auditor not exceeding $25,000 in value or cost per engagement of audit and non-audit services,
and such authority may only be exercised when the Audit Committee is not in session.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Article ELEVENTH of
the Company&rsquo;s Articles of Incorporation provides that the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, contract or engage in
any transaction with (1) any director, officer or employee of the Company, (2) any director, officer or employee of the advisor,
(3) the advisor, or (4) any affiliate or associate (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) of any of the aforementioned persons, unless (a) the material facts as to the relationship among or financial
interest of the relevant individuals or persons and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed to or are known by the Company&rsquo;s
Board of Directors or the appropriate committee thereof, and (b) the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors or appropriate committee
thereof determines that such contract or transaction is fair to the Company and simultaneously authorizes or ratifies such contract
or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of independent directors of the Company entitled to vote thereon. Article
ELEVENTH defines an &ldquo;Independent Director&rdquo; (for purposes of that Article) as one who is neither an officer or employee
of the Company, nor a director, officer or employee of the Company&rsquo;s advisor. This definition predates the Company&rsquo;s
director independence guidelines adopted in February 2004.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Company&rsquo;s
policy is to have such contracts or transactions approved or ratified by a majority of the disinterested directors with full knowledge
of the character of such transactions, as being fair and reasonable to the stockholders at the time of such approval or ratification
under the circumstances then prevailing. Such directors also consider the fairness of such transactions to the Company. Management
believes that, to date, such transactions have represented the best investments available at the time and that they were at least
as advantageous to the Company as other investments that could have been obtained. The Company may enter into future transactions
with entities the officers, directors or stockholders of which are also officers, directors or stockholders of the Company, if
such transactions would be beneficial to the operations of the Company and consistent with the Company&rsquo;s then current investment
objectives and policies, subject to approval by a majority of disinterested directors as discussed above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Pillar has served as
the Company&rsquo;s advisor since April 30, 2011. Pillar is also a company for which Messrs. Bertcher, Corna, and Moos (all executive
officers of the Company) serve as executive officers. The executive officers of the Company also serve as executive officers of
TCI and IOT, and owe fiduciary duties to each of those entities as well as to Pillar under applicable law. TCI and IOT each have
the same relationship with Pillar as the Company. Mr. Bertcher is also an officer and director of GBR and, as such, owes fiduciary
duties to GBR.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Company owns an
equity interest in TCI which in turn owns over 80% of the Common Stock of IOT. At December 31, 2015, the Company, together with
one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, owned approximately 82% of TCI&rsquo;s outstanding common stock.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">For tax periods ending
before August 31, 2012, the Company was part of the ARL consolidated federal return. After that date, the Company and the rest
of the ARL group (TCI and IOT) joined the MRHI consolidated group for tax purposes. The income tax expense (benefit) for 2010 and
2011 tax periods was calculated under a tax sharing and compensating agreement among the Company, TCI, and IOT. That agreement
continued until August 31, 2012, at which time the new tax sharing and compensating agreement was entered into among the Company,
TCI, IOT, and MRHI for the remainder of 2012. For 2013, the Company, TCI, and IOT had a combined net taxable loss. The benefit
or expense under such arrangements is calculated based upon the amount of losses absorbed by taxable income multiplied by the statutory
rate of 35% per the tax sharing and compensating agreements.</P>

TCI, IOT, Prime and Pillar have each engaged in, and may continue to engage in, business transactions, including real estate partnerships,
with related parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions represented the best investments available
at the time and were at least as advantageous to the Company as could have been obtained from unrelated parties.</P>
