received prior to the Termination Date equals or is greater than 100% of Original Invested Capital plus an amount sufficient to
pay the Stockholders’ 6% Return through the Termination Date, the Advisor shall be entitled to the Subordination Participation
Fee based on such Appraised Value less the then outstanding balance on any mortgage debt on the underlying Properties plus a Subordinated
Participation Fee on Properties or parcels of Properties previously sold but on which a Subordinated Participation Fee was not
paid.

(h)           Loans
from Affiliates. The Company may not borrow money from the Advisor or any Affiliate of the Advisor, unless a majority of the
Trust Managers (including a majority of the Independent Trust Managers) not otherwise interested in such transaction approve the
transaction as being fair, competitive, and commercially reasonable and no less favorable to the Company than loans between unaffiliated
parties under the same circumstances.


 


(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
lesser of the Company’s Organizational and Offering Expenses or 1.5% of the proceeds raised from the Offering;


 


(ii)           the
Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of Properties or other Permitted Investments;


 


(iii)           the
actual cost of goods and materials used by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor, other than Acquisition
Expenses, including brokerage fees paid in connection with the purchase and sale of securities;


 


(iv)           interest
and other costs for borrowed money, including discounts, points and other similar fees;


 


(v)           taxes
and assessments on income or Property and taxes as an expense of doing business;


 


(vi)           costs
associated with insurance required in connection with the business of the Company or by the Trust Managers;


 


(vii)           expenses
of managing and operating Properties owned by the Company, whether payable to an Affiliate of the Company or a non-affiliated Person;



    	Page 13



    	 



    




(viii)           all
expenses in connection with payments to the Trust Managers and meetings of the Trust Managers and Stockholders;


 


(ix)           expenses
associated with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of Shares and Securities, such as selling commissions and fees, advertising
expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, and Listing and registration fees;


 


(x)           expenses
connected with payments of Distributions in cash or otherwise made or caused to be made by the Trust Managers to the Stockholders;


 


(xi)           expenses
of organizing, revising, amending, converting, modifying, or terminating the Company or the Declaration of Trust;


 


(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, Properties 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 often 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 Trust Managers 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 Trust Managers of the Company, subject to the limitations contained in the Declaration
of Trust, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(12)           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 Trust Managers 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 Trust Managers knowledge of such condition or circumstance. If the Sponsor, Advisor, Trust Manager
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 Trust Managers (including the Independent Trust Managers) to adopt
the method, if any, set forth in the Prospectus 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 Trust Managers for its consideration.


 


(13)           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.

(14)           Term;
Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in force until March 8, 2013, subject to an unlimited number of successive
one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties. It is the duty of the Trust Managers 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.


 


(15)           Termination
by Either Party. This Agreement shall be terminable by a majority of the Independent Trust Managers, or the Advisor on 60 days
written notice without Cause; provided, however, the Advisor shall be entitled to the value of its Subordinated Participation Fee
as provided under Paragraph 9(g) above. In the event of the termination of this Agreement, the Advisor will cooperate with the
Company and take all reasonable steps requested to assist the Trust Managers in making an orderly transition of the advisory function.


 


(16)           Assignment
to an Affiliate. This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of a majority of the Trust
Managers (including a majority of the Independent Trust Managers). The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments
under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Trust Managers. 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.


 


(17)           Subcontracts
with Affiliates. The Advisor may subcontract with an Affiliate for a portion of the services and duties to be performed under
this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Trust Managers to the extent such services or duties are primarily administrative
in nature. The Advisor may further subcontract any rights to receive fees or other payments for such services or duties under this
Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Trust Managers.


 


(18)           Payments
to and Duties of Advisor Upon Termination.


 


(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 Subordinated Participation Fee on the basis as described above in
Paragraph 9(g). The Advisor shall be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid compensation and expense reimbursements in cash
within 30 days of the Termination Date.



    	Page 16



    	 



    




(c)           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 Trust Managers 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 Trust Managers;


 


(iii)           deliver
to the Trust Managers all assets, including Properties 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 California or the
Declaration of Trust 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)           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 Trust Managers 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 Declaration of Trust, the Bylaws, or accepted by
the party to whom it is given, and shall be given by being delivered by hand or by overnight mail or other overnight delivery
service to the addresses set forth herein:

(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 shall any waiver of any
right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege
