When executing documents or otherwise acting in such capacities for the Company or the Subsidiaries, such persons shall use their respective titles in the Company or the Subsidiaries.

The provisions of this Section 6(b) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one year.

Section 7. Obligations of Manager; Restrictions.

(a) The Manager shall require each seller or transferor of Investments to the Company and the Subsidiaries to make such representations and warranties regarding such assets as may, in the judgment of the Manager, be necessary and appropriate. In addition, the Manager shall take such other action as it deems necessary or appropriate with regard to the protection of the Investments.

(b) The Manager shall refrain from any action that, in its sole judgment made in good faith:

(i) is not in compliance with the Investment Guidelines;

(ii) would adversely and materially affect the qualification of the Company as a REIT under the Code;

If the Manager is ordered to take any such action by the Board of Directors, the Manager shall promptly notify the Board of Directors of the Manager’s judgment that such action would adversely and materially affect the qualification of the Company as a REIT, the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s status as an entity intended to be exempted or excluded from registration under the Investment Company Act, or violate any such law, rule or regulation or the Governing Instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager and its officers, directors, members, managers and employees shall not be liable to the Company or any Subsidiary or to any director or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary for acts or omissions performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, except as provided in Section 12 of this Agreement.

(c) The Board of Directors shall periodically review the Investment Guidelines and the Company’s portfolio of Investments, but will not review each proposed investment, except as provided in Section 2(k) hereof. If a majority of the Independent Directors determine in their periodic review of transactions that a particular transaction does not comply with the Investment Guidelines, then a majority of the Independent Directors will consider what corrective action, if any, can be taken. The Manager shall be permitted to rely upon the direction of the Secretary of the Company to evidence the approval of the Board of Directors or the Independent Directors with respect to a proposed investment.

(d) The Manager agrees to be bound by all policies and procedures, including the Company’s code of conduct and other compliance and governance policies and procedures, applicable to the Manager and its officers, directors, members, managers and employees that are adopted by the Board of Directors from time to time, including those required under the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, or by the NYSE, and to take, or cause to be taken, all actions reasonably required to cause its officers, directors, members, managers and employees, and any principals, officers or employees of its Affiliates (including Colony Capital) who are involved in the business and affairs of the Company, to be bound by such policies and procedures to the extent applicable to such persons.

(e) The Manager shall at all times during the term of this Agreement maintain “errors and omissions” insurance coverage and other insurance coverage that is customarily carried by asset and investment managers performing functions similar to those of the Manager under this Agreement with respect to assets similar to the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in an amount which is comparable to that customarily maintained by other managers or servicers of similar assets.

Section 8. Base Management Fee.

(a) During the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, the Company and the TRS shall pay the Manager the Base Management Fee quarterly in arrears, commencing with the quarter in which this Agreement was executed (with such initial payment pro-rated based on the number of days during such quarter that this Agreement was in effect). The Base Management Fee is payable independent of the performance of the Company, any of the Subsidiaries or the Investments.

(b) The Manager shall compute each installment of the Base Management Fee within 30 days after the end of the fiscal quarter with respect to which such installment is payable. A copy of the computations made by the Manager to calculate such installment of the Base Management Fee shall thereafter promptly be delivered to the Board of Directors and, upon such delivery, payment of such installment of the Base Management Fee shown therein shall, subject in any event to Section 13(a) of this Agreement, be due and payable in cash no later than the date which is five Business Days after the date of delivery to the Board of Directors of such computations.

(c) As a component of the Manager’s compensation, the Company may issue to personnel of the Manager stock-based compensation under the Company’s equity incentive plan.

(d) The Base Management Fee is subject to adjustment pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(a) of this Agreement.

(e) The Base Management Fee payable pursuant to Section 8(a) above, shall be payable by the Company and the TRS as follows:

(i) The Company shall pay the portion of the Base Management Fee determined by multiplying the Base Management Fee payable with respect to the relevant quarter by a fraction the numerator of which is the gross book value at the end of such quarter of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries other than the TRS and its Subsidiaries and the denominator of which is the gross book value at the end of such quarter of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries including the TRS and its Subsidiaries (the “Company Percentage”); and

(ii) The TRS shall pay the portion of the Base Management Fee determined by multiplying the Base Management Fee for the relevant quarter by a fraction the numerator of which is the gross book value at the end of such quarter of the assets of the TRS and its Subsidiaries and the denominator of which is the gross book value at the end of such quarter of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries including the TRS and its Subsidiaries (the “TRS Percentage”).

Section 9. Incentive Fee.

(a) The Incentive Fee shall be payable in arrears, in quarterly installments commencing with the quarter in which this Agreement is executed. The Manager shall compute each quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee within 45 days after the end of the fiscal quarter with respect to which such installment is payable. A copy of the computations made by the Manager to calculate such installment

shall thereafter promptly be delivered to the Board of Directors and, upon such delivery, payment of such installment of the Incentive Fee shown therein shall, subject in any event to Section 13(a) of this Agreement, be due and payable no later than the date which is five Business Days after the date of delivery to the Board of Directors of such computations.

(b) Each installment of the Incentive Fee shall be payable as follows:

(i) one hundred percent (100%) of the Incentive Fee will be payable in shares of Common Stock; provided, however, the percentage of the Incentive Fee payable in shares of Common Stock is subject to the following: (1) the ownership of such shares by the Manager does not violate the limit on ownership of Common Stock set forth in the Company’s Governing Instruments, after giving effect to any waiver from such limit that the Board of Directors may grant to the Manager or its Affiliates in the future and (2) the Company’s issuance of such shares to the Manager complies with all applicable restrictions under U.S. federal securities laws and the rules of the NYSE; and

(ii) the remaining portion of the Incentive Fee that is not payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 9(b)(i), if any, will be payable in cash.

(c) The number of shares of Common Stock payable as the Incentive Fee to be issued to the Manager will be equal to the dollar amount of the portion of the quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee payable in shares of Common Stock divided by a value determined as follows:

(i) if the Common Stock is traded on a securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock on such exchange on the five Business Days prior to the date on which the quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee is paid;

(ii) if the Common Stock is not traded on a securities exchange but is actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bids or sales prices, as applicable, on the five Business Days prior to the date on which the quarterly installment of the Incentive Fee is paid; and

(iii) if the Common Stock is neither traded on a securities exchange nor actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) of the Company.

(d) If at any time the Manager shall, in connection with a determination of the value of the Common Stock made by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 9(c)(iii) hereof, (i) dispute such determination in good faith by more than five percent (5%), and (ii) such dispute cannot be resolved between the Independent Directors and the Manager within 10 Business Days after the Manager provides written notice to the Company of such dispute (the “Valuation Notice”), then the matter shall be resolved by an independent appraiser of recognized standing selected jointly by the Independent Directors and the Manager within not more than 20 days after the Valuation Notice. In the event the Independent Directors and the Manager cannot agree with respect to such selection within the aforesaid 20 day time-frame, the Independent Directors shall select one such independent appraiser and the Manager shall select one independent appraiser within five Business Days after the expiration of the 20 day period, with one additional such appraiser (the “Last Appraiser”) to be selected by the appraisers so designated within five Business Days after their selection. Any valuation decision made by the Last Appraiser shall be deemed final and binding upon the Board of Directors and the Manager and shall be delivered to the Manager and the Board of Directors within not more than 15 days after the selection of the Last Appraiser. The expenses of the appraisal shall be paid by the party with the estimate which deviated the furthest from the final valuation decision made by the independent appraisers.

Section 10. Expenses of the Company.

(a) The Company and the TRS shall pay all of the expenses of the Company Parties and shall reimburse the Manager for documented expenses of the Manager incurred on behalf of the Company Parties (collectively, the “Expenses”) excepting only those expenses that are specifically the responsibility of the Manager pursuant to Sections 2 and 10(b) of this Agreement. Such costs and reimbursements shall not be in amounts greater than those which would be payable to outside professionals or consultants engaged to perform such services pursuant to agreements negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

(v) expenses connected with communications to holders of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s securities and other bookkeeping and clerical work necessary in maintaining relations with holders of such securities and in complying with the continuous reporting and other requirements of governmental bodies or agencies, including, without limitation, all costs of preparing and filing required reports with the SEC, the costs payable by the Company to any transfer agent and registrar in connection with the listing and/or trading of the Company’s stock on any exchange, the fees payable by the Company to any such exchange in connection with its listing, costs of preparing, printing and mailing the Company’s annual report to its stockholders and proxy materials with respect to any meeting of the Company’s stockholders;

(vii) expenses incurred by managers, officers, personnel and agents of the Manager for travel solely on the Company’s behalf and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by managers, officers, personnel and agents of the Manager in connection with the purchase, financing, refinancing, sale or other disposition of an Investment or the establishment and maintenance of any of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s securitizations or any of their securities offerings;

(xvii) any judgment or settlement of pending or threatened proceedings (whether civil, criminal or otherwise) against the Company or any Subsidiary, or against any trustee, director, partner, member or officer of the Company or of any Subsidiary in his, her or its capacity as such for which the Company or any Subsidiary is required to indemnify such Person by any court or governmental agency; and

(xviii) all other expenses actually incurred by the Manager (except as described below) which are reasonably necessary for the performance by the Manager of its duties and functions under this Agreement;

provided, however, that with respect to expenses incurred by the Manager in connection with assets acquired by or services rendered to the Company together with any additional publicly traded or other investment vehicle that is sponsored or managed by the Manager, Colony Capital or any of their Affiliates, the Company and the TRS, together, shall only be responsible for Company Parties’ pro rata share of such expenses, based on the ratio of the amount of capital contributed by the Company Parties for any investment in such assets compared to the total capital invested in such assets.

(b) Neither the Company nor any other Company Party shall have any obligation to reimburse the Manager for (i) the salaries and other compensation costs of the Manager’s personnel or (ii) any fee paid to Colony Capital pursuant to, or cost or expense incurred in connection with, the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Company will be required to pay its pro rata portion of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Manager and its Affiliates required for the operations of the Company and the Subsidiaries. These expenses will be allocated between the Manager and the Company based on the ratio of the Company’s proportion of gross assets compared to all remaining gross assets managed or held by Colony Capital and its Affiliates or the Manager and its Affiliates as calculated at each quarter end. The Manager and the Company will modify this allocation methodology, subject to the Independent Directors’ approval, if the allocation becomes inequitable (i.e., if the Company becomes highly leveraged compared to Colony Capital or the Manager’s or Colony Capital’s other funds and accounts). The Company will also be required to pay the rent for office space and other office, internal and overhead expenses incurred by persons who are employed directly by the Company or its Subsidiaries and who are not simultaneously employed by the Manager or any of its Affiliates, including the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

(c) The Manager may, at its option, elect not to seek reimbursement for certain expenses during a given quarterly period, which determination shall not be deemed to construe a waiver of reimbursement for similar expenses in future periods.

(d) The provisions of this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement to the extent such expenses have previously been incurred or are incurred in connection with such expiration or termination.

(e) The expense reimbursements payable by the Company and the TRS hereunder (other than any expenses that are clearly allocable (e.g., taxes) either to the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the TRS and its Subsidiaries) on the one hand or to the TRS and its Subsidiaries on the other hand) shall be borne by each of them in accordance with the Company Percentage or the TRS Percentage, as applicable, with respect to the relevant quarter.

Section 11. Calculations of Expenses. The Manager shall prepare a statement documenting the Expenses during each fiscal quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. Expenses shall be reimbursed by the Company and the TRS to the Manager no later than the 15th Business Day immediately following the date of delivery of such statement; provided, however, that such reimbursements may be offset by the Manager against amounts due to the Company and the Subsidiaries. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

Section 12. Limits of the Manager’s Responsibility; Indemnification.

(a) The Manager assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for under this Agreement in good faith and shall not be responsible for any action of the Board of Directors in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendations of the Manager, including as set forth in Section 7(b) of this Agreement. The Manager and its officers, directors, members, managers and employees will not be liable to the Company or any Subsidiary, the Board of Directors, or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s stockholders or partners for any acts or omissions by any such Person (including, without limitation, trade errors that may result from ordinary negligence, such as errors in the investment decision making process or in the trade process), performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, except by reason of acts constituting gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of the Manager’s duties under this Agreement.

(b) The Company to the full extent permitted by law shall indemnify and hold harmless the Manager and each officer, director, member, manager and employee of the Manager (each a “Covered Person”) from and against any and all claims or liabilities of any nature whatsoever, including reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with the business and operations of the Company or any Subsidiary or any action taken or omitted by any such Covered Person by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to authority granted by this Agreement, except where found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be attributable to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any such Covered Person or the reckless disregard by such Covered Person of their duties under this Agreement. In the event that any Covered Person becomes involved in any capacity in any suit, action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with the Manager’s duties hereunder, the Company will periodically reimburse such Covered Person for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith; provided, however, that prior to any such advancement of expenses (i) such Covered Person shall provide the Company with an undertaking to promptly repay to the Company the amount of any such expenses paid to it if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as herein provided in connection with such suit, action, proceeding or investigation, and (ii) the Covered Person shall provide the Company with a written affirmation that such Covered Person in good faith believes that it has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification hereunder; provided, further, however, that the failure for any reason of the Company to advance funds to any Covered Person shall in no way affect such Covered Person’s right to reimbursement of such costs if it is ultimately determined that such Covered Person was entitled to indemnification pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Any Covered Person entitled to indemnification from the Company hereunder shall seek recovery under any insurance policies by which such Covered Person is covered and any Covered Person shall obtain the written consent of the Company prior to entering into any compromise or settlement which would result in an obligation of the Company to indemnify such Covered Person; provided, however, that the possibility of recovery under any such insurance policies shall not preclude a Covered Person from seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 12. If such Covered Person shall actually recover any amounts under any applicable insurance policies, it shall offset the net proceeds so received against any amounts owed by the Company by reason of the indemnity provided hereunder or, if all such amounts shall have been paid by the Company in full prior to the actual receipt of such net insurance proceeds, it shall pay over such proceeds (up to the amount of indemnification paid by the Company to such Covered Person) to the Company. If the amounts in respect of which indemnification is sought arise out of the conduct of the business and affairs of the Company or any Subsidiary and also of any other Person or entity for which the Covered Person hereunder was then acting in a similar capacity, the amount of the indemnification to be provided by the Company may be limited to the Company Parties’ proportionate share thereof if so determined by the Company in good faith.

(d) The Manager to the full extent permitted by law shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the TRS and any other Subsidiary and each officer, director, employee and agent of the Company or any Subsidiary from and against any and all claims or liabilities of any nature whatsoever, including reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with acts of the Manager found by a court of competent jurisdiction to constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of the Manager’s duties under this Agreement, or any claims by the Manager’s employees relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by the Manager.

(e) The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

Section 13. Term; Termination.

(a) Until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, this Agreement shall be in effect until September 29, 2012 (the “Initial Term”) and shall be automatically renewed for a one-year term each anniversary date thereafter (a “Renewal Term”) unless at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors agree that (i) there has been unsatisfactory performance by the Manager that is materially detrimental to the Company and the Subsidiaries or (ii) the compensation payable to the Manager, in the form of base management fees and incentive fees, or the amount thereof, is unfair to any of the Company Parties; provided that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under clause (ii) above if the Manager agrees to continue to provide the services under this Agreement at a reduced fee that at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors determines to be fair pursuant to the procedure set forth below. The Company may elect not to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term upon at least 180 days’ prior written notice to the Manager (the “Termination Notice”). If the Company issues the Termination Notice, the Company shall be obligated to (i) specify the reason for nonrenewal in the Termination Notice (pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph) and (ii) pay the Manager the Termination Fee on or before the last day of the Initial Term or Renewal Term (the “Effective Termination Date”); provided, however, that in the event that such Termination Notice is given in connection with a determination that the compensation payable to the Manager is unfair, the Manager shall have the right to renegotiate such compensation by delivering to the Company, no fewer than 60 days prior to the prospective Effective Termination Date, written notice (any such notice, a “Notice of Proposal to Negotiate”) of its intention to renegotiate its compensation under this Agreement. Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Proposal to Negotiate, the Company (represented by the Independent Directors) and the Manager shall endeavor to negotiate in good faith the revised compensation payable to the Manager under this Agreement. Provided that the Manager and at least two-thirds of the Independent Directors agree to the terms of the revised compensation to be payable to the Manager within 60 days following the receipt of the Notice of Proposal to Negotiate, the Termination Notice shall be deemed of no force and effect and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect on the terms stated in this Agreement, except that the compensation payable to the Manager shall be the revised compensation then agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement. The Company and the Manager agree to execute and deliver an amendment to this Agreement setting forth such revised compensation promptly upon reaching an agreement regarding the same. In the event that the Company and the Manager are unable to agree to the terms of the revised compensation to be payable to the Manager during such 60-day period, this Agreement shall terminate, such termination to be effective on the date that is the later of (A) 10 days following the end of such 60-day period and (B) the Effective Termination Date originally set forth in the Termination Notice.

(b) In recognition of the upfront effort required by the Manager to structure and acquire the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries and the commitment of resources by the Manager, in the event that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(a) or Section 14(b) of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Manager, on the date on which such termination is effective, a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) equal to three times the sum of (i) the average annual Base Management Fee and (ii) the average annual Incentive Fee, in each case earned by the Manager during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to the date of termination. The obligation of the Company to pay the Termination Fee shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c) No later than 180 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, the Manager may deliver written notice to the Company informing it of the Manager’s intention to decline to renew this Agreement, whereupon this Agreement shall not be renewed and extended and this Agreement shall terminate effective on the anniversary date of this Agreement next following the delivery of such notice. The Company shall not be required to pay the Termination Fee to the Manager if the Manager terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13(c).

Section 14. Termination for Cause.

(a) The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time, including during the Initial Term, upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice of termination from the Board of Directors to the Manager, without payment of any Termination Fee by any Company Party, if:

(i) the Manager engages in any act or omission that constitutes gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct;

(ii) the Manager breaches this Agreement in any material respect and such breach shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof specifying such breach and requesting that the same be remedied in such 30-day period;

(iii) there is a commencement of any proceeding relating to the Bankruptcy or insolvency of the Manager or Colony Capital, including an order for relief in an involuntary Bankruptcy case or the authorization or filing by the Manager or Colony Capital of a voluntary Bankruptcy petition;

(iv) there is a Manager Change of Control or a Colony Capital Change of Control and a majority of the Independent Directors reasonably determines that such Manager Change of Control or Colony Capital Change of Control, as the case may be, is materially detrimental to the Company and the Subsidiaries;

(v) the Manager is convicted (including a plea of nolo contendere) of a felony;

(vi) the Manager is unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement; or

(vii) there is a dissolution of the Manager.

(b) The Manager may terminate this Agreement effective upon 60 days’ prior written notice of termination to the Company in the event that the Company shall breach this Agreement in any material respect or otherwise be unable to perform its obligations hereunder and such breach shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof specifying such default and requesting that the same be remedied in such 30-day period. The Company shall be required to pay the Termination Fee to the Manager if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 14(b).

(c) The Manager may terminate this Agreement in the event the Company becomes regulated as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act, with such termination deemed to have occurred immediately prior to such event. If the Manager terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 14(c), the Company shall not be required to pay the Termination Fee.

Section 15. Survival; Action Upon Termination. From and after the effective date of termination of this Agreement, pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 16 of this Agreement, the Manager shall not be entitled to compensation for further services under this Agreement, but shall be paid all compensation accruing to the date of termination and, if terminated pursuant to Section 13(a) or 14(b), the applicable Termination Fee. Upon such termination, the Manager shall forthwith:

(i) after deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for Expenses to which it is then entitled, pay over to the Company or a Subsidiary all money collected and held for the account of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii) deliver to the Board of Directors a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last accounting furnished to the Board of Directors with respect to the Company or a Subsidiary;

(iii) deliver to the Board of Directors all property and documents of the Company or any Subsidiary then in the custody of the Manager; and

(iv) Sections 6, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 25 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 16. Assignment. This Agreement shall terminate automatically, without payment of the Termination Fee, in the event of its assignment, in whole or in part, by the Manager, unless such assignment is consented to in writing by the Company after the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors; provided, however, that the Manager may assign this Agreement to any Majority-Owned Affiliate of Colony Capital without the consent of the Company or the approval of the Independent Directors if (a) such Majority-Owned Affiliate of Colony Capital becomes a party to, or becomes subject to the rights and obligations of the Manager under, the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Investment Allocation Agreement and (b) such assignment does not require the Company’s approval under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Any such permitted assignment shall bind the assignee under this Agreement in the same manner as the Manager is bound, and the Manager shall be liable to the Company for all errors or omissions of the assignee under any such assignment. In addition, the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Company a counterpart of this Agreement naming such assignee as Manager. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of the Manager, except in the case of assignment by the Company to another REIT or other organization which is a successor (by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets, or other transaction) to the Company, in which case such successor organization shall be bound under this Agreement and by the terms of such assignment in the same manner as the Company is bound under this Agreement.

Section 17. Release of Money or Other Property Upon Written Request. The Manager agrees that any money or other property of the Company or any Subsidiary held by the Manager under this Agreement shall be held by the Manager as custodian for the Company or Subsidiary, and the Manager’s records shall be appropriately marked clearly to reflect the ownership of such money or other property by the Company or such Subsidiary. Upon the receipt by the Manager of a written request signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company requesting the Manager to release to the Company or any Subsidiary any money or other property then held by the Manager for the account of the Company or any Subsidiary under this Agreement, the Manager shall release such money or other property to the Company or any Subsidiary within a reasonable period of time, but in no event later than 30 days following such request. The Manager shall not be liable to the Company, any Subsidiary, the Independent Directors, or the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s stockholders or partners for any acts performed or omissions to act by the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the money or other property released to the Company or any Subsidiary in accordance with the second sentence of this Section 17. The Company shall indemnify the Manager and its officers, directors, personnel, managers, and officers against any and all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever, which arise in connection with the Manager’s release of such money or other property to the Company or any Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Section 17. Indemnification pursuant to this provision shall be in addition to any right of the Manager to indemnification under Section 12 of this Agreement.

(b) The Manager hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Company and the TRS, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

(i) The Manager is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is, or shall be prior to the commencement of services hereunder, qualified to do business and in good standing in Delaware. The Manager has all power and authority required to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform all its duties and obligations hereunder, subject only to its qualifying to do business and obtaining all requisite permits and licenses required as a result of or relating to the nature or location of any of the assets or properties of the Company and the Subsidiaries (which it shall do promptly after being required to do so).

(ii) The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by the Manager have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Manager.

Section 19. Contingent Reimbursement Obligation of the Company to the Manager for the Manager Offering Payments.

(a) The Company acknowledges the payment by Manager, for and on behalf of the Company, to the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering of the Manager Offering Payments, as defined in and pursuant to Section 2(b) of the IPO Underwriting Agreement (the “Manager Offering Payments”).

(b) The Company agrees to reimburse the Manager an amount (the “Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right”) equal to the Manager Offering Payments if during any full four calendar quarter period during the 24 full calendar quarters after the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the “Conditional Payment Period”), the Company’s Core Earnings for such four-quarter period exceeds the product of: (i) the weighted average of the issue price per share of Common Stock of all of the Company’s offerings of Common Stock (including the Initial Public Offering) multiplied by the weighted average number of

shares of Common Stock outstanding (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any restricted shares of Common Stock and any shares of Common Stock underlying other awards granted under one or more of the Company’s equity incentive plans) in the four-quarter period; and (ii) 8% (such product of (i) and (ii), the “Performance Hurdle Rate”).

(A) one hundred percent (100%) of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right will be payable in shares of Common Stock; provided, however, the percentage of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right payable in shares of Common Stock is subject to the following: (1) the ownership of such shares by the Manager does not violate the limit on ownership of Common Stock set forth in the Company’s Governing Instruments, after giving effect to any waiver from such limit that the Board of Directors may grant to the Manager or its Affiliates in the future and (2) the Company’s issuance of such shares to the Manager complies with all applicable restrictions under U.S. federal securities laws and the rules of the NYSE; and

(B) the remaining portion of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right that is not payable in shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 19(c)(i), if any, will be payable in cash.

(ii) The number of shares of Common Stock, if any, payable to the Manager pursuant to the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right will be equal to the amount of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right divided by the Initial Public Offering Price of the Common Stock ($20.00); provided, however, that, if the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of stock or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the date of this agreement, the price per share of Common Stock used to determine the number of shares to be issued to the Manager upon payment of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Company, and the kinds of shares of stock issuable to the Manager upon payment of the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right shall be adjusted by the Company equitably.

(d) During the Conditional Payment Period if the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right has not been paid, the Manager shall compute Core Earnings for each full four-quarter period within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter and shall promptly deliver such computation and the calculation of the Performance Hurdle Rate to the Board of Directors. In the event that the Performance Hurdle Rate has been met, the Company shall pay the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right, in Common Stock and/or cash as set forth in Section 19(c) above, to the Manager no later than the date which is five Business Days after the date of delivery to the Board of Directors of the applicable computation of Core Earnings and the calculation of the Performance Hurdle Rate.

(e) In the event the Termination Fee is payable to the Manager prior to the end of the Conditional Payment Period and the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right has not been paid, the Company shall pay the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right to the Manager, in Common Stock and/or cash as set forth in Section 19(c) above, on the same date as the payment of the Termination Fee in reimbursement of the Manager’s payment of the Manager Offering Payments, irrespective of whether the Performance Hurdle Rate has been met.

(f) If the Performance Hurdle Rate has not been met and no Termination Fee has become payable to the Manager prior to the end of the Conditional Payment Period, then the Manager Conditional Reimbursement Right shall terminate as of the end of the Conditional Payment Period.

(g) The Manager and Company agree that the Manager’s payment of the Manager Offering Payments on behalf of the Company is an advance by the Manager for and on behalf of the Company for federal income tax purposes, giving rise to a contingent payable from the Company to the Manager and will not take any position inconsistent therewith.

Exhibit A

The Board of Directors has adopted the following investment guidelines:

•

No investment shall be made that would cause the Company to fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

•

Until appropriate investments can be identified, the Manager may invest the proceeds of the Company’s Initial Public Offering and any future offerings in interest-bearing, short-term investments, including money market accounts and/or U.S. treasury securities, that are consistent with the Company’s intention to qualify as a REIT and maintain its exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act.

In addition, any investment of the Company’s capital of up to $10 million requires the approval of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; any investment in excess of $10 million but less than or equal to the lesser of twenty percent (20%) of the current asset value of the Company or $100 million requires the approval of the Investment Committee; and any investment greater than the lesser of twenty percent (20%) of the current asset value of the Company or $100 million requires the approval of the Board of Directors.
