broker Affiliates of the Advisor, shall be (x) with respect to each Real Estate-Related Investment,
two percent (2.0%) of the Contract Purchase Price of each such Real Estate-Related Investment and
(y) with respect to Properties, two and three-quarters percent
(2.75%) of the Contract Purchase Price
of each such Property.



     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, or on the completion of development of a Property or Properties for the
Company, including the acquisition of any Properties funded by equity raised during the Offering
Stage by the Advisor or its Affiliates which are completed after the end of the Offering Stage
and/or the termination of this Agreement. However, the total of all Acquisition Fees and
Acquisition Expenses payable with respect to any Property or Real Estate-Related Investment that is
acquired shall not exceed six percent (6.0%) of the Contract Purchase Price of such Property or
Real Estate-Related Investment unless fees in excess of such amount are approved by a majority of
the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors.



     (b) Asset Management Fee. Subject to the overall limitations contained below in this
Section 8(b), commencing on the Effective Date, the Advisor shall be paid a monthly fee in
arrears for the services rendered in connection with the management of the Company’s assets (the
“Asset Management Fee”) in an amount equal to one-twelfth of eighty-five one-hundredths of one
percent (0.85%) of the Average Invested Assets for such month; provided, however, that the
Company’s obligation to pay the Asset Management Fee shall be subject to the Stockholders receiving
annualized Distributions in an amount equal to five percent (5.0%) per annum of average Invested
Capital (as such term is defined in the Articles of Incorporation). The Asset Management Fee shall
be payable by the Company in cash or in Shares at the election of the Advisor in whole or in part,
from time to time, by the Advisor (without interest); provided,



11









 







however, that the Company may object to the Advisor’s election and refuse to pay the Advisor
in Shares if such payment would result in a conflict with any provision of the Articles of
Incorporation. If the Advisor elects to receive the Asset Management Fee in the form of Shares and
such election does not conflict with any provision of the Articles of Incorporation, then the
Shares shall be valued at a price per share equal to the average closing price of the Shares over
the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of such election if the Shares are Listed at
such time. If the Shares are not Listed and the Company is still in its Offering Stage, and for
the twelve-month period following the termination of the Offering Stage, at such time, the Advisor
will estimate the per share value of the Shares at a price per share equal the most recent price
paid to acquire a Share during the Offering Stage (excluding any Shares sold pursuant to any
distribution reinvestment plan or sold with purchase price discounts). If the Shares are not
Listed and the Offering Stage has been completed for more than twelve (12) months at such time, the
Shares shall be valued at a price per share equal to the estimated value of the shares as
reasonably determined by the Advisor on the date of election, based upon the most recent Appraised
Value of the Company.



     (c) Disposition Fee. If the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor provides a substantial
amount of services (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with
the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive at closing a
disposition fee equal to the lesser of (i) two percent (2.0%) of the Contract Sales Price of such
Property or Properties, or (ii) fifty percent (50.0%) of a Competitive Real Estate Commission given
the circumstances surrounding the sale (the “Disposition Fee”). In each case in which a Disposition
Fee may be payable, the precise amount of the fee within the limits set forth in the preceding
sentence shall be determined by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, based
upon the extent of the services provided by the Advisor or its Affiliate and market norms for the
services provided. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Disposition Fee shall be
payable to the Advisor or its Affiliate for Property Sales if such Sales involve the Company
selling all or substantially all of its Properties in one or more transactions designed to
effectuate a business combination transaction (as opposed to a Company liquidation, in which case
the Disposition Fee would be payable if the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount
of services as provided above). Any Disposition Fee payable under this section may be paid in
addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total real estate
commissions (including such Disposition Fee) paid to all Persons by the Company for each Property
shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) six percent (6.0%) of the Contract Sales
Price of the Property or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for the Property.



     (d) Property Management Fee; Lease Fee. Either the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor as
the Property Manager shall receive a monthly property management fee of up to four percent (4.0%)
of the monthly Gross Income from each Property managed by such Property Manager (the “Property
Management Fee”). The Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor may sub-contract its duties to any
third-party, including for fees less than the Property Management Fee payable to the Advisor. In
addition, the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor as the Property Manager may receive a separate
fee for any leasing activities in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s
length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar
properties, as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area (the “Lease Fee”). The
Lease Fee is generally expected to range from three percent (3.0%) to eight percent (8.0%) of the
gross revenues generated during the initial term of the lease. In addition to the above Property
Management Fee and Lease Fee, for each Property managed directly by a non-Affiliated Property
Manager but where an Affiliate of the Advisor has oversight responsibility over such non-Affiliated
Property Manager, the Company will pay such Affiliate of



12









 







the Advisor a monthly oversight fee of up to one percent (1.0%) of the Gross Income from the
Property; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company pay both the Property Management
Fee and an oversight fee to the Advisor or its Affiliates with respect to the same property.



     (e) Construction Management Fee; Development Services Fee. In the event that the Advisor or
its Affiliates assist with planning and coordinating the construction of any capital or tenant
improvements, the Company may pay the respective party up to 5.0% of the cost of such improvements.
In addition, the Advisor or its Affiliates may provide development-related services, and the
Company will pay the respective party a development fee in an amount that is usual and customary
for comparable services rendered for similar projects in the geographic market where the services
are provided; however, the Company will not pay a development fee to the Advisor or its Affiliates
if the Advisor elects to receive an Acquisition Fee based on the cost of such development.



     9. Expenses.



     (a) Reimbursable Expenses. In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to
Section 8 hereof, the Company or the Partnership shall pay directly or reimburse the
Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor (to the extent not reimbursable by
another party, such as the dealer manager) in connection with the services it provides to the
Company and the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:



          (i) the Organizational and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within sixty (60) days
after the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company
to the extent (i) Capped O&O Expenses borne by the Company exceed the maximum amount permitted
pursuant to the Prospectus for the Offering and (ii) Organizational and Offering Expenses borne by
the Company exceed fifteen percent (15.0%) of the Gross Offering Proceeds raised in a completed
Offering;




          (ii) Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of
Properties and Real Estate-Related Investments, whether or not acquired, subject to the aggregate
six percent (6.0%) cap on Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses set forth in
Section 8(a) above;




          (iii) the actual cost of goods and services 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 Real Estate-Related Investments;




13









 








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




          (v) taxes and assessments on income of the Company or any of the Properties;




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




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




          (viii) all compensation and expenses payable to the Independent Directors and all expenses
payable to the non-Independent Directors in connection with their services to the Company and the
Stockholders and their attendance at meetings of the Directors and the Stockholders;




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




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




          (xi) expenses of organizing, redomesticating, merging, liquidating or dissolving the Company
or of amending the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws;




          (xii) expenses of maintaining communications with Stockholders or their financial advisors,
including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder
reports, proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities;




          (xiii) administrative service expenses (including (a) 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, and (b) the Company’s
allocable share of other overhead of the Advisor such as rent and utilities);




          (xiv) transfer agent and registrar’s fees and charges;




          (xv) expenses associated with the disposition of Properties, including, subject to
Section 8(c), real estate commissions;




          (xvi) audit, accounting, legal and other professional fees; and




          (xvii) all other administrative service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by
Advisor in fulfilling its duties hereunder. Such costs and expenses may include reasonable wages
and salaries and other employee-related expenses of all employees of the Advisor or its Affiliates
who are engaged in the management, administration, operations, or marketing of the Company,
including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and legal, travel and other
out-of-pocket expenses which are directly related to their services provided hereunder.




14









 








     (b) Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor, any Affiliate of the Advisor
or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company and the Partnership
other than set forth in Section 3, such additional services, if the Advisor elects to
perform them, shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by
the Advisor and the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, subject to the
limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, shall not exceed an amount that would be
paid to non-Affiliated third parties for similar services, and shall not be deemed to be services
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.



     (c) Timing of and Limitations on Reimbursements.



          (i) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and the Partnership and payable
pursuant to this Section 9 shall be reimbursed at least quarterly to the Advisor. The
Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company and the Partnership
during each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company and the Partnership within
forty-five (45) days after the end of each quarter.




          (ii) The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter Operating
Expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) exceed (the
“Excess Amount”) the greater of two 2.0% of Average Invested Assets or 25.0% of Net Income (the
“2.0%/25.0% Guidelines”) for such year unless a majority of the Independent Directors determines
that such Excess Amount was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors that a majority of
the Independent Directors deems sufficient. If a majority of the Independent Directors does not
approve such excess as being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal
quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If a majority of the Independent Directors determines such
excess was justified, then within sixty (60) days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the
Company for which total reimbursed Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed the 2.0%/25.0%
Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of a majority of the Independent Directors, shall send to
the Stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the
Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. The
Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the
Board of Directors. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, applied
on a consistent basis. In the event that the Independent Directors do not determine that excess
expenses were justified, the Advisor shall reimburse the Corporation the amount by which the
expense reimbursement exceeded the 2.0%/25.0% Guidelines.




          (iii) The foregoing reimbursements of expenses, as limited by this Agreement, will be made
regardless of whether any cash distributions are made to the Stockholders.




     10. Statements. The Advisor shall furnish to the Company not later than the thirtieth
(30th) day following the end of each Fiscal Year, a statement showing a computation of the fees or
other compensation payable to the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor with respect to such
Fiscal Year under Sections 8 and 9 hereof. The final settlement of compensation
payable under Sections 8 and 9 hereof for each Fiscal Year shall be subject to
adjustments in accordance with, and upon completion of, the annual audit of the Company’s financial
statements.



     11. Internalization of the Advisor. To the extent that the Board of Directors
determines that it is in the best interests of the stockholders of the Company to internalize
(acquire from the Advisor) any management functions provided by Advisor, the compensation payable
to the



15









 







Advisor for such specific internalization shall be negotiated and agreed upon by the
Independent Directors and the Advisor.



     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 or the Partnership is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other
participant therein. The Advisor shall report to the Board 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 the Partnership and its
obligations to or its interest in any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or
association.



     13. Non-Solicitation. The Company agrees not to solicit any current and/or future
employees of the Advisor or its Affiliates for employment or in any consulting or similar capacity
during the Offering Stage and for two (2) years following the termination of the Offering Stage.



     14. Information Furnished to the Advisor. The Board of Directors will keep the
Advisor informed concerning the investment and financing policies of the Company. The Board of
Directors shall notify the Advisor promptly of its intention to make any investments or to sell or
dispose of any existing investments. The Board of Directors will timely notify the Advisor of any
activities or actions that would require a report or other filing be made with the Securities and
Exchange Commission or any other governmental or regulatory authority. Upon request of the
Advisor, the Company shall furnish the Advisor with a certified copy of any Company financial
statements, a signed copy of each report prepared by independent certified public accountants, and
such other information with regard to its affairs as the Advisor may reasonably request.



     15. Relationship of Advisor and Company. The Company, the Partnership 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.



     16. Term. This Agreement shall continue in force until the first anniversary of the
Effective Date, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon mutual consent
of the parties. The Board will evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing
the Agreement.



     17. Termination.



     (a) This Agreement may be terminated upon sixty (60) days written notice without cause or
penalty, by either party (if by the Company, only upon approval of a majority of the Independent
Directors).



     (b) Survival. The provisions of Sections 6, 7, 11, 13, and 19 through 32, and
the provisions of Section 8, shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.



16









 





     18. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Advisor to a
non-Affiliate. This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of
the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without
obtaining the approval of the Board. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company or the
Partnership without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the Company
or the Partnership to a corporation or other organization which is a successor to all of the
assets, rights and obligations of the Company or the Partnership, as the case may be, in which case
such successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the
same manner as the Company and the Partnership is bound by this Agreement.



     19. Payments to and Duties of Advisor Upon Termination. Payments to the Advisor
pursuant to this Section 19 shall be subject to the 2.0%/25.0% Guidelines to the extent
applicable.



     (a) After the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Advisor shall not be entitled
to compensation for further services hereunder except that it shall be entitled to the Acquisition
Fee to the extent provided by Section 8(a) and it shall be entitled to receive from the Company
within thirty (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; and



     (b) 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 Board 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 Board;




          (iii) deliver to the Board all assets, including Properties and Real Estate-Related
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.




     20. Indemnification by the Company.



     (a) 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, provided that the Company shall not indemnify and
hold harmless the Advisor or its Affiliates unless:



          (i) the Advisor or its Affiliates have determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct
which caused the loss or liability was in the best interests of the Company;




          (ii) the Advisor or its Affiliates were acting on behalf of or performing services for the
Company;




17









 








          (iii) such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the Advisor or
its Affiliates; and




          (iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of Company’s
net assets and not from its stockholders.



The obligation of the Company to indemnify or hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates shall
also be subject to any limitations imposed by Maryland law.




     21. 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, willful misfeasance, misconduct, or reckless disregard of its duties, but the
Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to
follow advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.



     22. Fidelity Bond. The Advisor shall not be required to obtain or maintain a fidelity
bond in connection with the performance of its services hereunder.



     23. 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 shall be given by being delivered by hand or by overnight mail or other
overnight delivery service to the addresses set forth herein:

discharged, in whole or in part, except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties
hereto, or their respective successors or assignees.



     25. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and severable
from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue



18









 







of the fact that for any reason any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in

     26. Construction. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted
in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland.

in writing.



     28. Indulgences, Not Waiver. 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 with respect to any other
occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party
asserted to have granted such waiver.



     29. Gender. Words used herein regardless of the number and gender specifically used,
shall be deemed and construed to include any other number, singular or plural, and any other
gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context requires.



     30. Titles Not to Affect Interpretation. The titles of sections and subsections
contained in this Agreement are for convenience only, and they neither form a part of this
Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation hereof.

counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature
appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This
Agreement shall become binding when the counterparts hereof, taken together, bear the signatures of
all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories.



     32. Rights of the Advisor and its Affiliates. Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II
Advisor, LLC or an Affiliate thereof has a proprietary interest in the name “Grubb & Ellis.”
Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II
Advisor, LLC or an Affiliate thereof ceases to perform the services of the Advisor under this
Agreement, the Company or the Partnership, as the case may be, will, promptly after receipt of
written request from Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II Advisor, LLC, cease to conduct business under
or use the name “Grubb & Ellis” or any variation or derivative thereof and the Company and the
Partnership shall, within five (5) business days of such cessation, each change its name (and the
names of any of their Affiliates) to a name that does not contain the name “Grubb & Ellis” 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, the parties acknowledge and agree 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



19









 







organizations having “Grubb & Ellis” 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 Board. The Advisor retains
ownership of and reserves all Intellectual Property Rights in the Proprietary Property. To the
extent that the Company has or obtains any claim to any right, title or interest in the Proprietary
Property, including without limitation in any suggestions, enhancements or contributions that
Company may provide regarding the Proprietary Property, the Company hereby assigns and transfers
exclusively to the Advisor all right, title and interest, including without limitation all
Intellectual Property Rights, free and clear of any liens, encumbrances or licenses in favor of the
Company or any other party, in and to the Proprietary Property. In addition, at the Advisor’s
expense, the Company will perform any acts that may be deemed desirable by the Advisor to evidence
more fully the transfer of ownership of right, title and interest in the Proprietary Property to
the Advisor, including but not limited to the execution of any instruments or documents now or
hereafter requested by the Advisor to perfect, defend or confirm the assignment described herein,
in a form determined by the Advisor.
