Amendment No. 1, as provided by this Amendment No. 2;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions. The following new Sections 1(oo) and 1(pp) are hereby added to the
Amended Advisory Agreement.
“(oo) “Real Estate-Related Securities” shall mean any real estate-related securities
investments transferred or conveyed to the Company or the Partnership, either directly or
indirectly, or such investments the Board of Directors and the Advisor mutually designate as
Real Estate-Related Securities to the extent such investments could be classified as either
Real Estate-Related Securities or Properties.”
“(pp) “Offering Stage” shall mean the period from the commencement of the Company’s
initial public equity offering through the termination of the Company’s last public equity
offering prior to Listing. For purposes of this definition, “public equity offering” does
not include offerings on behalf of selling Stockholders or offerings related to a
distribution reinvestment plan, employee benefit plan or the redemption of interests in the
Partnership.”
2. Compensation.
Sections 9(a) & 9(b) of the Amended Advisory Agreement are hereby deleted in
their entirety and replaced with the following.
“(a) The Advisor or its Affiliates shall receive as compensation for services
rendered in connection with the investigation, selection and acquisition of Real
Estate Assets and Real Estate-Related Securities (by purchase, investment or
exchange) funded by equity raised during the Offering Stage by the Advisor or its
Affiliates, including any acquisitions completed after the end of the Offering Stage
and/or termination of this Agreement or funded with net proceeds from a Sale, an
Acquisition Fee payable by the Company. The total Acquisition Fees paid to the
Advisor or its Affiliates shall not exceed (i) 3.0% of the Contract Purchase Price
of Properties acquired directly or indirectly by the Company, (ii) 4.0% of the Total
Development Cost of Properties developed by or on behalf of the Company for services
provided by the Advisor, its Affiliates or sub-contractors thereof, and (iii) 2.0%
of the origination price or purchase price of (A) Real Estate-Related Securities and
(B) Real Estate Assets other than Properties, originated or acquired by the Company.
At the Advisor’s discretion, a portion of the Acquisition Fee may be paid to
third-party developers for services rendered. Acquisition Fees shall be payable on
the acquisition of a specific Property, on the acquisition of a portfolio of
Properties through a purchase of assets, controlling securities or by Joint Venture,
by a merger or similar business combination or other comparable transaction, on the
completion of development of a Property or Properties for the Company, or on the
origination or acquisition of Real Estate-Related Securities or Real Estate Assets
other than Properties. However, the total of all Acquisition Fees and Acquisition
Expenses payable with respect to any Real Estate Assets and Real Estate-Related
Securities shall not exceed 6.0% of the Contract Purchase Price of such Real Estate
Assets or Real Estate-Related Securities, or in the case of a loan, 6.0% of the
funds advanced, unless fees in excess of such amount are approved by a majority of
the Directors not interested in such transaction and by a majority of the
Independent Directors not interested in such transaction and which transaction is
determined to be commercially competitive, fair and reasonable to the
Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event the Advisor’s
obligations in Section 2(a) herein terminate or are waived by the Company, the
Advisor may, in its sole discretion, waive all or a portion of its rights under this
Section 9(a).”
“(b) The Advisor shall receive as compensation for services rendered in connection
with the management of the Company’s assets the Asset Management Fee. The Asset
Management Fee shall be equal to 0.5% of Average Invested Assets, calculated monthly not
to exceed one-twelfth of 0.5% of the Average Invested Assets of the Company as of the
last day of the immediately preceding quarter. The Asset Management Fee shall be payable
monthly in arrears by the Company in cash or in shares at the option of the Advisor,
and may be deferred, in whole or in part, from time to time, by the Advisor (without
interest); provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to pay the Asset Management
Fee shall be subject to the Stockholders receiving distributions in an amount
equal to 5.0% per annum, cumulative, non-compounded, of Invested
Capital and, effective January 1, 2009, the Advisor will waive the Asset
Management Fee until the quarter following the quarter in which the Company generates
funds from operations (“FFO”) sufficient to cover 100% of its distributions declared to
its Stockholders for such quarter. For purposes of calculating FFO, non-recurring
charges including, but not limited to, acquisition related expenses, amortization of
deferred financing fees on the Company’s line of credit or other equivalent mezzanine
financing, interest expense associated with the Company’s line of credit, the Company’s
loan from NNN Realty Advisors, Inc. or other mezzanine loans, and gains or losses on
future interest rate swaps, will be excluded.”
3. Compensation for Additional Services, Certain Limitations. Section 11(b) of the
Amended Advisory Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following.
“(b) In extraordinary circumstances, the Advisor and its Affiliates may provide
other goods and services to the Company if all of the following criteria are met:
(i) the goods or services must be necessary to the prudent operation of the Company;
and (ii) the compensation, price or fee must be equal to the lesser of the
compensation, price or fee the Company would be required to pay to independent
parties who are rendering comparable services or selling or leasing comparable goods
on competitive terms in the same geographic location, or the compensation, price or
fee charged by the Advisor or its Affiliates for rendering comparable services or
selling or leasing comparable goods to third parties on competitive terms. In
addition, any such payment will be subject to the further
limitation described in paragraph (c) below. Extraordinary circumstances shall
be presumed only when there is an emergency situation requiring immediate action by
the Advisor or its Affiliates and the goods or services are not immediately
available from unaffiliated parties. Services which may be performed in such
extraordinary circumstances include emergency maintenance of Company Properties,
janitorial and other related services due to strikes or lock-outs, emergency tenant
evictions and repair services which require immediate action, as well as operating
and re-leasing properties with respect to which the leases are in default or have
been terminated.”
