Exhibit 10.200


 


 


 


CONSULTING AGREEMENT


 


This Consulting Agreement (this “Agreement”)
is entered into as of December 14, 2012 by and among TNP Strategic Retail Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “REIT”),
TNP Strategic Retail Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”
and together with the REIT, the “Company”) and Glenborough, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Consultant”).
The Company, the Operating Partnership and the Consultant are sometimes referred to herein as the “Parties.”


 


WHEREAS, the Company wishes
to retain the Consultant to act as a consultant to the special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Special
Committee”) and to provide the Services (as defined in Section 2 hereof) on the terms and conditions set forth herein
and the Consultant desires to provide the Services to the Company.


 


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing,
of the mutual promises contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


 


		1.	Consulting Period. The Company hereby retains the Consultant to provide the Services pursuant to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. This Agreement shall continue for an initial term of one (1) month and shall continue thereafter on a month-to-month
basis unless earlier terminated as otherwise provided in this Section 1; provided, however, that this Agreement and
the consulting arrangements provided hereunder shall automatically terminate on the effective date of any advisory or similar agreement
entered into by and among the Company and the Consultant (or any affiliate of the Consultant) pursuant to which the Consultant
(or its affiliate) shall serve as the external advisor of the Company (the “Advisory Agreement”). Either the
Consultant or the Special Committee may terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason (or no reason) by providing the
other party with at least ten (10) business days advance written notice of such termination. The period of time between the date
hereof and the termination of the Consultant’s consulting relationship with the Company hereunder shall be referred to herein
as the “Consulting Period.”



 


		2.	Services. During the Consulting Period, the Company hereby retains the Consultant to perform the services listed on
Exhibit A hereto and such other services as may be mutually agreed to by the Special Committee and the Consultant (collectively,
the “Services”). As part of the Services, the Consultant shall make its representatives reasonably available
to meet with the Special Committee and such other persons as may be reasonably requested by the Special Committee. The Consultant
shall use good faith diligent efforts to perform the Services and shall devote such time as Consultant determines is reasonably
necessary to fulfill these obligations.



 






    	 



    	 



    

 


		3.	Consulting Fees and Expenses.



 


		a.	Consulting Fee. During the Consulting Period, the Company shall pay the Consultant a monthly flat fee of Seventy Five
Thousand Dollars ($75,000) $75,000, payable monthly in arrears, prorated for any partial monthly period.



 


		b.	Reimbursement for Expenses. The Consultant shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with the Consultant's performance of the Services and its other obligations under this Agreement.



 


		4.	Independent Contractor Status. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the status of the Consultant and its directors,
officers, employees, managers and members (the “Consultant Affiliates”) at all times shall be that of an independent
contractor and no agency, joint venture, partnership or other relationship is intended and no other arrangement shall be created
between the Consultant and any other Party with respect to the Services. The Consultant shall not owe any duties to the Company
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that neither the Consultant nor any of the Consultant
Affiliates may, at any time bind or otherwise obligate the Company in any manner whatsoever without obtaining the prior written
approval of the Company therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent reasonably requested by the Consultant in order
to facilitate the performance by the Consultant of the Services, the REIT shall provide the Consultant one or more letters or certificates
signed by an authorized officer of the REIT certifying the authority of the Consultant to negotiate and interact with third parties
on behalf of the Company.



 


		5.	Confidential Information. The Consultant agrees that the Consultant shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available,
sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of the Consultant’s performance of the Services,
either during the Consulting Period or at any time thereafter, any business and technical information or trade secrets, nonpublic,
proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, affiliated companies
or businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Consultant during the Consulting Period or any other period during which the
Consultant provided services to the Company (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The foregoing shall
not apply to information that (a) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to the Consultant, (b) becomes generally known
to the public subsequent to disclosure to the Consultant through no wrongful act of the Consultant or any representative of the
Consultant, or (c) the Consultant is required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided
that, to the extent legally permitted, the Consultant provides the Company with prompt notice of the disclosure and reasonably
cooperates with the Company, at the Company’s sole expense, in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection
of such information). The Consultant shall refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with the
performance of the Services or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Company and
the Consultant. Upon termination of the Consulting Period, or at any other time as the Special Committee may reasonably request,
the Consultant shall deliver to the Company all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software
and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information of or relating to the business of the
Company which it may then possess or have under its control. The REIT and the Consultant further agree that the letter agreement,
dated as of August 1, 2012, between the REIT and the Consultant is hereby terminated and of no further force and effect except
for Section 8, entitled “Standstill”, which shall survive in full force and effect.



 






    	 



    	 



    

 


		6.	Indemnification by REIT and Operating Partnership. The REIT and the Operating Partnership hereby agree, jointly and
severally, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Consultant and the Consultant
Affiliates as well as their respective agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnitee”) against and in respect
of any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, liabilities, judgments, costs, expenses (including legal fees and
amounts paid in settlement), losses, and damages (collectively, “Claims”), including claims by equity holders
of the REIT and the Operating Partnership, resulting from, arising under, or related to (a) the Consultant’s performance
of the Services and its other duties and obligations under this Agreement, provided that an Indemnitee’s right
to indemnification from the REIT and the Operating Partnership pursuant to this clause (a) shall not apply to acts or omissions
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been attributable to an Indemnitee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful
misconduct, and (b) any Claims made by TNP Strategic Retail Advisor, LLC or any of its officers, members, managers or affiliates.



 


Prior to the final disposition of any Claim with respect
to which any Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, the REIT and the Operating Partnership shall pay to the Indemnitee
an amount equal to all expenses of said Indemnitee incurred in the defense of said Claim, in advance of such final disposition
and as such expenses are incurred, so long as the REIT and the Operating Partnership have received a written undertaking from a
credit worthy entity or person of said Indemnitee, as reasonably determined by the Special Committee, to repay to the REIT and
the Operating Partnership the amount so advanced if it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that said Indemnitee
was not entitled to indemnification hereunder.


 


		7.	Indemnification by Consultant. The Consultant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the REIT and the Operating Partnership against and in respect of any and all Claims resulting from, arising under,
or related to the Services that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been incurred by reason of the Consultant’s
gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Consultant shall
not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the REIT or the Operating Partnership
as a result of the Consultant’s engagement hereunder.



 






    	 



    	 



    

 


		8.	Intentionally Deleted.



 


		9.	Assignment. The Services provided under this Agreement are personal to the Consultant and may not be assigned or delegated
without the prior written consent of the Special Committee. The Company may not assign or delegate any rights or obligations hereunder
without first obtaining the written consent of the Consultant.



 


		10.	Other Activities of the Consultant. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall restrict the ability of the Consultant
or its affiliates to engage in any other activities, including, without limitation, activities that compete with the Company. Furthermore,
the Consultant shall not be required to provide any investment opportunities to the Company and may invest in any such opportunity
without first offering such opportunity to the Company.



 


		11.	Notices. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be
