Management Agreement
 
Upon completion of the Company’s initial public offering on July 1, 2016, the Company and the Advisor entered into an amended and restated management agreement (the “Management Agreement”). Certain material terms of the Management Agreement are summarized in the section titled “Business — Our Advisor and our Management Agreement,” contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 12, 2018.
 
Management Fees and Accrued Management Fees
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, management fees of $1,081 and $627, respectively, were incurred and expensed by the Company. The management fee is calculated in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement which requires an annual base management fee equal to 1.5% of our stockholders’ equity (as defined in the Management Agreement). During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, management fees of $1,064 and $621, respectively, were paid to the Advisor. Accrued management fees due to the Advisor were $1,081 and $1,064 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
 
Allocated General and Administrative Expenses
 
Effective May 8, 2017, the Company and the Advisor entered into an agreement pursuant to which, for a period of one year commencing on May 8, 2017, the Company agreed to reimburse the Advisor for $125 of the annual salary of the General Counsel and Secretary of the Company for so long as he continues to be primarily dedicated to the Company in his capacity as its General Counsel and Secretary. In the future, the Company may receive additional allocations of general and administrative expenses from the Advisor that are either clearly applicable to or were reasonably allocated to the operations of the Company. Other than via the terms of the reimbursement agreement, there were no allocated general and administrative expenses from the Advisor for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
