Asset Manager shall to the extent it deems necessary arrange for periodic inspections of the Qualified Properties by independent contractors.

2.2 Leasing Supervision Activities.

(a) Leasing Supervision. Asset Manager shall supervise all leasing activities, for the purpose of leasing the available space in the Qualified

A1-1

Properties to tenants upon such terms and conditions as shall be consistent with the Company Agreement and the Annual Plan.

(b) Generally. In the performance of Asset Manager’s duties under this Section 2.2, Asset Manager shall (i) develop and coordinate advertising, marketing and leasing plans for space at each Qualified Property that is vacant or anticipated to become vacant; (ii) cooperate and communicate with leasing specialists, consultants and third-party brokers in the market, and solicit their assistance with respect to new tenant procurement; and (iii) notify the Company in writing of all offers for tenancy at each Qualified Property which Asset Manager believes are made in good faith, including the identification and fee schedules of procuring brokers, if any.

(c) Negotiation of Leases. Asset Manager shall negotiate all tenant leases, extensions, expansions and other amendments and related documentation on the Company’s behalf in accordance with the Company Agreement and the Annual Plan. All such documentation shall be prepared at the Company’s expense by counsel acceptable to or designated by the Company, and shall be executed by the Company. The terms of all such documentation are to be approved by the Company pursuant to such reasonable procedures as may be requested by the Company from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) Asset Manager shall not, for any reason, have the power or authority to execute any such documentation on behalf of the Company or otherwise bind the Company without the Company’s prior written consent, and (y) the Company reserves the right to deal with any prospective tenant to procure any such lease, extension, expansion or other amendment or related documentation.

2.4 Obligations Under Leases. Asset Manager shall supervise and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to perform and comply, duly and punctually, with all of the obligations required to be performed or complied with by the Company under all leases and all laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, permits and certificates of occupancy relating to the operation, leasing, maintenance and servicing of the Qualified Properties, including, without limitation, the timely payment by the Company of all sums required to be paid thereunder.

2.5 The Company’s Insurance. If requested by the Company, the Asset Manager shall cause to be placed and kept in force all forms of insurance required by the Company Agreement and the Annual Plan or required by any mortgage, deed of trust or other security agreement covering all or any part of any Qualified Property. The Asset Manager is to be named as an additional insured on the general liability policies in its capacity as managing agent. All such insurance coverage shall be placed through insurance companies and brokers selected or approved by the Company, with limits, values and deductibles established by the Company and with such beneficial interests appearing therein as shall be acceptable to the Company and otherwise be in conformity with the requirements of the Company Agreement and the Annual Plan. Should the Company elect to place such insurance coverage directly, the Asset Manager shall be named as an additional insured on the general liability policies in its capacity as managing agent and the Company will provide the Asset Manager with a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage. If requested to do so by the Company, the Asset Manager shall duly and punctually pay on behalf of the Company with funds provided by the Company all premiums with respect thereto, prior to the time the policy would lapse due to nonpayment.

If any lease requires the Company to provide insurance certificates to tenants thereunder, the Asset Manager shall obtain such insurance certificates from the Company, review the certificates for compliance with the lease terms, and provide a copy thereof to tenants in accordance with their respective leases. The Asset Manager shall promptly investigate and make a full and timely written report to the insurance broker, with a copy to the Company, as to all accidents, claims or damage of which the Asset Manager has knowledge relating to the operation and maintenance of each Qualified Property, any damage or destruction to each Qualified Property, and the estimated cost of repair thereof, and shall prepare any and all reports required by any insurance company in connection therewith. All such reports shall be filed timely with the insurance broker as required under the terms of the insurance policy involved. The Asset Manager shall have no right to settle, compromise or otherwise dispose of any claims, demands or liabilities, whether or not covered by insurance, without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld by the Company in its sole discretion.

The policies referred to in items (a) and (d) above will name the Company and the Advisor as additional insureds, and the policies referred to in item (f) above will name the

A1-4

Company as loss payee. The Asset Manager will provide the Company and the Advisor with evidence of all required coverages.

Such insurance shall be placed with reputable insurance companies licensed or authorized to do business in the states in which the Qualified Properties are located with a minimum Best’s rating of A- X.

Asset Manager shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the use of each Qualified Property for any purpose that might void any policy of insurance held by the Company, or any tenant at each Qualified Property, that might render any loss insured thereunder uncollectible or that would be in violation of any governmental restriction or the provisions of any lease.

2.11 Cooperation. Should any claims, demands, suits, or other legal proceedings be made or instituted by any third party against the Company that arise out of any matters relating to a Qualified Property or the Management Agreement or Asset Manager’s performance hereunder, Asset Manager shall promptly give the

A1-5

Company all pertinent information and assistance in the defense or other disposition thereof; provided, however, in the event the foregoing requires Asset Manager to incur any expenses beyond the ordinary cost of performing its obligations under the Management Agreement, the Company shall pay for any such out-of-pocket costs of which the Company has been advised in writing.

In the case of any fire or other material damage to a Qualified Property, Asset Manager shall also notify the Company’s insurance broker telephonically, so that an insurance adjuster has an opportunity to view the damage before repairs are started, and complete customary loss reports in connection with fire or other damage to a Qualified Property.

2.13 Notice of Damages and Suits; Settlement of Claims.

2.14 Enforcement of Leases. The Asset Manager shall enforce compliance by tenants with each and all of the terms and provisions of the leases, provided, however, that Asset Manager shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company in each instance, which consent may be withheld by the Company in its sole discretion, institute legal proceedings in the name of the Company to enforce leases, collect income and rent or dispossess tenants or others occupying a Qualified Property or any portion thereof, or terminate any lease, lock out a tenant, or engage counsel or institute any proceedings for recovery of possession of a Qualified Property if any such action by the Asset Manager would constitute a Major Decision.
