Advisor's Affiliates except as provided in Paragraphs 19 and 20 of this
Agreement.
(8) RELATIONSHIP WITH DIRECTORS. Directors, officers and employees
of the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor or any corporate parents of an
Affiliate, or directors, officers or stockholders of any director, officer or
corporate parent of an Affiliate may serve as a Director and as officers of the
Company, except that no director, officer or employee of the Advisor or its
Affiliates who also is a Director or officer of the Company shall receive any
compensation from the Company for serving as a Director or officer of the
Company other than reasonable reimbursement for travel and related expenses
incurred in attending meetings of the Directors of the Company.
(9) FEES.
(a) Asset Management Fee. The Company shall pay to the
Advisor as compensation for the advisory services rendered to the Company under
Paragraph 3 above a monthly fee in an amount equal to one-twelfth of 0.80% of
the Company's Real Estate Asset Value and the outstanding principal amount of
the Loans and other Permitted Investments (the "Asset Management Fee"), as of
the end of the preceding month. Specifically, Real Estate Asset Value equals the
amount invested in the Properties wholly owned by the Company, determined on the
basis of cost, plus, in the case of Properties owned by any Joint Venture or
partnership in which the Company is a co-venturer or partner, the portion of the
cost of such Properties paid by the
-13-
Company, exclusive of Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses. The Asset
Management Fee shall be payable monthly on the last day of such month, or the
first business day following the last day of such month. The Asset Management
Fee, which will not exceed fees which are competitive for similar services in
the same geographic area, may or may not be taken, in whole or in part as to any
year, in the sole discretion of the Advisor. All or any portion of the Asset
Management Fee not taken as to any fiscal year shall be deferred without
interest and may be taken in such other fiscal year as the Advisor shall
determine.
(b) Acquisition Fees. The Company shall pay the Advisor a
fee in the amount of 3.5% of Total Proceeds as Acquisition Fees. Acquisition
Fees shall be reduced to the extent that, and, if necessary to limit, the total
compensation paid to all persons involved in the acquisition of any Property to
the amount customarily charged in arm's-length transactions by other persons or
entities rendering similar services as an ongoing public activity in the same
geographical location and for comparable types of Properties and to the extent
that other acquisition fees, finder's fees, real estate commissions, or other
similar fees or commissions are paid by any person in connection with the
transaction. The total of all Acquisition Fees and any Acquisition Expenses
shall be limited in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation.
(c) Subordinated Disposition Fee. If the Advisor or an
Affiliate provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by a
majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with the Sale of one or
more Assets, the Advisor or an Affiliate shall receive a Subordinated
Disposition Fee equal to the lesser of (i) one-half of a Competitive Real Estate
Commission or (ii) 3% of the sales price of such Property or Properties (or
comparable competitive Fee in the case of a Loan or other Permitted Investment).
The Subordinated Disposition Fee will be paid only if Stockholders have received
total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested
Capital and their aggregate Stockholders' 8% Return. To the extent that
Subordinated Disposition Fees are not paid by the Company on a current basis due
to the foregoing limitation, the unpaid fees will be accrued and paid at such
time as the subordination conditions have been satisfied. The Subordinated
Disposition Fee may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to
non-Affiliates, provided that the total real estate commissions paid to all
Persons by the Company (including the Subordinated Disposition fee) shall not
exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6% of the Contract Sales Price of a
Property or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission. In the event this
Agreement is terminated prior to such time as the Stockholders have received
total Distributions in an amount equal to 100% of Invested Capital plus an
amount sufficient to pay the Stockholders' 8% Return through the Termination
Date, an appraisal of the Properties then owned by the Company shall be made and
the Subordinated Disposition Fee on Properties previously sold will be deemed
earned if the Appraised Value of the Properties then owned by the Company plus
total Distributions received prior to the Termination Date equals 100% of
Invested Capital plus an amount sufficient to pay the Stockholders' 8% Return
through the Termination Date. Upon Listing, if the Advisor has accrued but not
been paid such Subordinated Disposition Fee, then for purposes of determining
whether the subordination conditions have been satisfied, Stockholders will be
deemed to have received a Distribution in the amount equal to the product of the
total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing price
-14-
of the Shares over a period, beginning 180 days after Listing, of 30 days during
which the Shares are traded.
(d) Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds. The
Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds shall be payable to the Advisor in an
amount equal to 10% of Net Sales Proceeds from Sales of assets of the Company
payable after the Stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of
the Stockholders' 8% Return and 100% of Invested Capital. Following Listing, no
Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds will be paid to the Advisor.
(e) Subordinated Incentive Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor
shall be paid the Subordinated Incentive Fee in an amount equal to 10% of the
amount by which (ii) the market value of the Company, measured by taking the
average closing price or average of bid and asked price, as the case may be,
over a period of 30 days during which the Shares are traded, with such period
beginning 180 days after Listing (the "Market Value"), plus the total
Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company's inception until the date
of Listing, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital and (B) the
total Distributions required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the
Stockholders' 8% Return from inception through the date the Market Value is
determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of
cash, Securities, a promissory note or any combination of the foregoing. The
Subordinated Incentive Fee will be reduced by the amount of any prior payment to
the Advisor of a deferred, subordinated share of Net Sales Proceeds form Sales
of Assets of the Company.
(f) Loans from Affiliates. If any loans are made to the
Company by an Affiliate of the Advisor, the maximum amount of interest that may
be charged by such Affiliate shall be the lesser of (i) 1% above the prime rate
of interest charged from time to time by The Bank of New York and (ii) the rate
that would be charged to the Company by unrelated lending institutions on
comparable loans for the same purpose. The terms of any such loans shall be no
less favorable than the terms available between non-Affiliated Persons for
similar commercial loans.
(g) Changes to Fee Structure. In the event of Listing,
the Company and the Advisor shall negotiate in good faith to establish a fee
structure appropriate for a perpetual-life entity. A majority of the Independent
Directors must approve the new fee structure negotiated with the Advisor. In
negotiating a new fee structure, the Independent Directors shall consider all of
the factors they deem relevant, including, but not limited to: (i) the amount of
the advisory fee in relation to the asset value, composition and profitability
of the Company's portfolio; (ii) the success of the Advisor in generating
opportunities that meet the investment objectives of the Company; (iii) the
rates charged to other REITs and to investors other than REITs by advisors
performing the same or similar services; (iv) additional revenues realized by
the Advisor and its Affiliates through their relationship with the Company,
including loan administration, underwriting or broker commissions, servicing,
engineering, inspection and other fees, whether paid by the Company or by others
with whom the Company does business; (v) the quality and extent of service and
advice furnished by the Advisor; (vi) the performance of the investment
portfolio of the Company, including income, conversion or appreciation of
capital, and number and frequency of problem investments; and (vii) the quality
of the Property, Loan and other Permitted Investment portfolio of the Company in
-15-
relationship to the investments generated by the Advisor for its own account.
The new fee structure can be no more favorable to the Advisor than the current
fee structure.
(10) EXPENSES.
(a) In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor
pursuant to Paragraph 9 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or reimburse the
Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection
with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this Agreement,
including, but not limited to:
(i) the Company's Organizational and Offering
Expenses;
(ii) Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection
with the selection and acquisition of Properties or the making of Loans or other

(iii) the actual cost of goods and materials used
by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor, other

converting, modifying, or terminating the Company or the Articles of
Incorporation;
(xii) expenses of maintaining communications with
Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual
reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports
required by governmental entities;
(xiii) expenses related to negotiating and
servicing Loans and other Permitted Investments;
(xiv) administrative service expenses (including
personnel costs; provided, however, that no reimbursement shall be made for
costs of personnel to the extent that such personnel perform services in
transactions for which the Advisor receives a separate fee at the lesser of
actual cost or 90% of the competitive rate charged by unaffiliated persons
providing similar goods and services in the same geographic location); and
(xv) audit, accounting and legal fees.
(b) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the
Company and payable pursuant to this Paragraph 10 shall be reimbursed no less
than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting
the expenses of the Company during each quarter, and shall deliver such
statement to the Company within 45 days after the end of each quarter.
(11) OTHER SERVICES. Should the Directors request that the Advisor
or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company
other than set forth in Paragraph 3, such services shall be separately
compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and
the Independent Directors of the Company, subject to the limitations contained
in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(12) REIMBURSEMENT TO THE ADVISOR. The Company shall not reimburse
the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter for Operating Expenses that, in the
four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the "Expense Year") exceed the
greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income (the "2%/25%
Guidelines") for such year. Within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter
of the Company for which total Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed
the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company the amount by
which the total Operating Expenses paid or incurred by the Company exceed the
2%/25% Guidelines. The Company will not reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates
for services for which the Advisor or its Affiliates are entitled to
compensation in the form of a separate fee. All figures used in the foregoing
computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis.
-17-
(13) OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR. Nothing herein contained
shall prevent the Advisor from engaging in other activities, including, without
limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and
the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor
or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any
director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to
engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other
partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor
may, with respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also
render advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The
Advisor shall report to the Directors the existence of any condition or
circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates
or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor's obligations to the
Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership,
corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor or its
Affiliates shall promptly disclose to the Directors knowledge of such condition
or circumstance. If the Sponsor, Advisor, Director or Affiliates thereof have
sponsored other investment programs with similar investment objectives which
have investment funds available at the same time as the Company, it shall be the
duty of the Directors (including the Independent Directors) to adopt the method
set forth in the Registration Statement or another reasonable method by which
properties are to be allocated to the competing investment entities and to use
their best efforts to apply such method fairly to the Company.
The Advisor shall be required to use its best efforts to present a
continuing and suitable investment program to the Company which is consistent
with the investment policies and objectives of the Company, but neither the
Advisor nor any Affiliate of the Advisor shall be obligated generally to present
any particular investment opportunity to the Company even if the opportunity is
of character which, if presented to the Company, could be taken by the Company.
In the event that the Advisor or its Affiliates is presented with a
potential investment which might be made by the Company and by another
investment entity which the Advisor or its Affiliates advises or manages, the
Advisor and its Affiliates shall consider the investment portfolio of each
entity, cash flow of each entity, the effect of the acquisition on the
diversification of each entity's portfolio, rental payments during any renewal
period, the estimated income tax effects of the purchase on each entity, the
policies of each entity relating to leverage, the funds of each entity available
for investment and the length of time such funds have been available for
investment. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available which
is suitable for both the Company and a public or private entity which the
Advisor or its Affiliates are Affiliated, then the entity which has had the
longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity
will first be offered the investment opportunity. For purposes of this conflict
resolution procedure, an investment opportunity will be considered "offered" to
the Company when an opportunity is presented to the Board of Directors for its
consideration.
(14) RELATIONSHIP OF ADVISOR AND COMPANY. The Company and the
Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or
impose any liability as such on either of them.
-18-
(15) TERM; TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall continue
in force until ________ __, 2005, subject to an unlimited number of successive
one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties. It is the duty of the
Directors to evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing
the Agreement, and each such agreement shall have a term of no more than one
year.
(16) TERMINATION BY EITHER PARTY. This Agreement may be terminated
upon 60 days written notice without Cause or penalty, by either party (by a
majority of the Independent Directors of the Company or a majority of the Board
of Directors of the Advisor, as the case may be).
(17) ASSIGNMENT TO AN AFFILIATE. This Agreement may be assigned by
the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of a majority of the Directors
(including a majority of the Independent Directors). The Advisor may assign any
rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining
the approval of the Directors. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the
Company without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment
by the Company to a corporation or other organization which is a successor to
all of the assets, rights and obligations of the Company, in which case such
successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said
assignment in the same manner as the Company is bound by this Agreement.
(18) PAYMENTS TO AND DUTIES OF ADVISOR UPON TERMINATION. Payments
to the Advisor pursuant to this Paragraph (18) shall be subject to the 2%/25%
Guidelines to the extent applicable.
(a) After the Termination Date, the Advisor shall not be
entitled to compensation for further services hereunder except it shall be
entitled to receive from the Company within 30 days after the effective date of
such termination all unpaid reimbursements of expenses and all earned but unpaid
fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement, exclusive of
disputed items arising out of possible unauthorized transactions.
(b) Upon termination, the Advisor shall be entitled to
payment of the Performance Fee if performance standards satisfactory to a
majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent
Directors, when compared to (a) the performance of the Advisor in comparison
with its performance for other entities, and (b) the performance of other
advisors for similar entities, have been met. If Listing has not occurred, the
Performance Fee, if any, shall equal 10% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the
appraised value of the assets of the Company on the Termination Date, less the
amount of all indebtedness secured by such assets, plus the total Distributions
paid to stockholders from the Company's inception through the Termination Date,
exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount equal to the Stockholders' 8%
Return from inception through the Termination Date. The Advisor shall be
entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid compensation and expense
reimbursements in cash within 30 days of the Termination Date. All other amounts
payable to the Advisor in the event of a termination shall be evidenced by a
promissory note and shall be payable from time to time.
-19-
(c) The Performance Fee shall be paid in 12 equal
quarterly installments without interest on the unpaid balance, provided,
however, that no payment will be made in any quarter in which such payment would
jeopardize the Company's REIT status, in which case any such payment or payments
will be delayed until the next quarter in which payment would not jeopardize
REIT status. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any amounts which may be
deemed payable at the date the obligation to pay the Performance Fee is incurred
which relate to the appreciation of the Company's assets shall be an amount
which provides compensation to the terminated Advisor only for that portion of
the holding period for the respective assets during which the Advisor provided
services to the Company.
(d) If Listing occurs, the Performance Fee, if any,
payable thereafter will be as negotiated between the Company and the Advisor.
The Advisor shall not be entitled to payment of the Performance Fee in the event
this Agreement is terminated because of failure of the Company and the Advisor
to establish, pursuant to Paragraph 9(h) hereof, a fee structure appropriate for
a perpetual-life entity at such time, if any, as Listing occurs.
(e) The Advisor shall promptly upon termination:
(i) pay over to the Company all money collected
and held for the account of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, after
deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which
it is then entitled;
(ii) deliver to the 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 Directors;
(iii) deliver to the Directors all assets,
including Properties, Loans, and other Permitted Investments, and documents of
the Company then in the custody of the Advisor; and
(iv) cooperate with the Company to provide an
orderly management transition.
(19) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. The Company shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective
officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages
or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent such liability,
claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by
insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of
Maryland or the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Advisor shall not be entitled to indemnification or be held
harmless pursuant to this Paragraph 19 for any activity for which the Advisor
shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to
Paragraph 20. Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net
assets of the Company and not from Stockholders.
-20-
(20) INDEMNIFICATION BY ADVISOR. The Advisor shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Company from contract or other liability, claims, damages,
taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys' fees, to the extent
that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are
not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Advisor's
bad faith, fraud, misconduct, or negligence, but the Advisor shall not be held
responsible for any action of the Board of Directors in following or declining
to follow any advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.
(21) NOTICES. Any notice, report or other communication required or
permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing unless some other method of
giving such notice, report or other communication is required by the Articles of
Incorporation, the Bylaws, or accepted by the party to whom it is given, and

(23) SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are independent

others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter

control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade

amended other than by an agreement in writing.
(26) INDULGENCES, NOT WAIVERS. Neither the failure nor any delay on
the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor

(27) GENDER. Words used herein regardless of the number and gender
specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other number,

(30) NAME. CNL Income Corp. has a proprietary interest in the name
"CNL." Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company
ceases to retain CNL Income Corp. or an Affiliate thereof to perform the
services of Advisor, the Directors of the Company will, promptly after receipt
of written request from CNL Income Corp., cease to conduct business under or use
the name "CNL" or any diminutive thereof and the Company shall use its best
efforts to change the name of the Company to a name that does not contain the
name "CNL" or any other word or words that might, in the sole discretion of the
Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the
Company and the Advisor or any Affiliate thereof. Consistent with the foregoing,
it is specifically recognized that the Advisor or one or more of its Affiliates
has in the past and may in the future organize, sponsor or otherwise permit to
exist other investment vehicles (including vehicles for investment in real
estate) and financial and service organizations having "CNL" as a part of their
name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object
thereto) by the Company or its Directors.
-22-
(31) INITIAL INVESTMENT. The Advisor has contributed to the Company
$200,000 in exchange for 20,000 Equity Shares (the "Initial Investment"). The
Advisor may not sell these Equity Shares while the Advisory Agreement is in
effect, although the Advisor may transfer such Equity Shares to Affiliates. The
restrictions included above shall not apply to any Equity Shares, other than the
Equity Shares acquired through the Initial Investment, acquired by the Advisor
or its Affiliates. The Advisor shall not vote any Equity Shares it now owns, or
hereafter acquires, in any vote for the removal of Directors or any vote
regarding the approval or termination of any contract with the Advisor or any of
its Affiliates.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as
of the date and year first above written.
