(d)           If a transaction requires approval by the Board, the Advisor will deliver to the Directors all documents required by them to properly evaluate the proposed transaction.

 

The Board may, at any time upon the giving of notice to the Advisor, modify or revoke the authority set forth in this Section 2.03. If and to the extent the Board so modifies or revokes the authority contained herein, the Advisor shall henceforth submit to the Board for approval all items requiring Board approval as a result of the modification or revocation of authority, provided, however, that such modification or revocation shall be effective only upon receipt by the Advisor and shall not be applicable to transactions to which the Advisor has committed the Company prior to the date of receipt by the Advisor of such notification.

 

**2.04       ****Bank Accounts**.  The Advisor may establish and maintain one or more bank accounts in its own name for the account of the Company or in the name of the Company and may collect and deposit into any such account or accounts, and disburse from any such account or accounts, any money on behalf of the Company, under such terms and conditions as the Board may approve, provided that no funds shall be commingled with the funds of the Advisor; and the Advisor shall from time to time render appropriate accountings of such collections and payments to the Board, its Audit Committee and the auditors of the Company.

 

**2.05       ****Records; Access**.  The Advisor shall maintain appropriate records of all its activities hereunder and make such records available for inspection by the Board and by counsel, auditors and authorized agents of the Company, at any time or from time to time during normal business hours.

**2.06       ****Limitations on Activities**.  Anything else in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Advisor shall refrain from taking any action which, in its sole judgment made in good faith, would (a) adversely affect the status of the Company as a REIT, (b) subject the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (c) violate any law, rule, regulation or statement of policy of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Company, the Shares or any of the Company’s securities, or otherwise not be permitted by the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, except if such action shall be ordered by the Board, in which case the Advisor shall notify promptly the Board of the Advisor’s judgment of the potential impact of such action and shall refrain from taking such action until it receives further clarification or instructions from the Board.  In such event the Advisor shall have no liability for acting in accordance with the specific instructions of the Board so given.  The Advisor, its directors, officers, employees and stockholders, and the directors, officers, employees and stockholders of the Advisor’s Affiliates shall not be liable to the Company or to the Board or Stockholders for any act or omission by the Advisor, its directors, officers, employees or stockholders, or for any act or omission of any Affiliate of the Advisor, its directors, officers or employees or stockholders except as provided in Section 5.02 of this Agreement.

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 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 its obligations to or its interest in any other Person.  The Advisor or its Affiliates shall promptly disclose to the Board 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 Board (including the Independent Directors) to adopt the method by which investments are to be allocated to the competing investment entities that is set forth in the Company’s most recent Prospectus for its Shares, and to apply such method fairly to the Company.

 

**ARTICLE III**

 

**COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT OF SPECIFIED COSTS**

 

**3.01****                       ****Fees**.

 

(a)                                  Asset Management Fee.  The Company shall pay the Advisor a monthly Asset Management Fee in an amount equal to 1/12th of 0.75% of Aggregate Asset Value as of the last day of the month, payable on the 15th day of following month.

 

(b)                                 Acquisition and Advisory Fees.  The Company shall pay the Advisor an Acquisition and Advisory Fee, in an amount equal to 2.5% of the Contract Purchase Price of each Asset, in connection with (i) acquiring such Asset, or any Incremental Interest therein, including by way of exchanging a debt interest for an equity interest, (ii) any Property Improvement, or (iii) the making of a Mortgage.  In the case of an Asset owned by a Joint Venture, the Acquisition and Advisory Fee payable hereunder shall be equal to the product of 2.5% of the Contract Purchase Price paid by the Joint Venture and the Ownership Percentage.  In the case of a Joint Venture, nothing herein shall prohibit the Advisor from receiving a fee from the joint venture partner for acquisition and advisory services separate and distinct from the Acquisition and Advisory Fee; provided, however, that the Advisor shall have promptly advised the Board of the proposed fee and that the Independent Directors shall have approved the fee.  If the Independent Directors do not authorize the Advisor to accept a separate fee from the joint venture partner, then the Independent Directors may cause the Company to set off any fee paid by the joint venture partner to the Advisor against any Acquisition and Advisory Fee due to the Advisor hereunder.

 

The Advisor shall submit an invoice to the Company concurrent with, or within a reasonable amount of time following, the closing or closings of each event for which an Acquisition and Advisory Fee is due hereunder, accompanied by a computation of the Acquisition and Advisory Fee. The Company shall pay the Acquisition and Advisory Fee to the Advisor within a reasonable period of time after receipt by the Company of the invoice; provided

 

14

----

 

that the Advisor may waive or defer payment of any particular Acquisition and Advisory Fee in its sole discretion. All or any portion of the Acquisition and Advisory Fee deferred by the Advisor shall bear interest if agreed to by the Company, and shall be paid in such other period as the Advisor shall determine.

 

(c)                                  Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds.  Prior to Listing, upon the consummation of any Sale, the Advisor shall receive a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds in an amount equal to 15% of Net Sales Proceeds less the amount by which the Company’s debt for borrowed money exceeds Aggregate Asset Value after the sale of the Asset(s) in respect of which the Net Sales Proceeds is being determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds will not be earned or paid unless and until the Stockholders have received total Distributions in an amount equal to or in excess of the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital plus the Stockholders’ 10% Return.  To the extent that, in any instance, the Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds is not earned and paid due to the foregoing limitation, the Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds that would have been earned and paid had the foregoing limitation not been in place at the time of a Sale shall be a contingent liability of the Company, and shall be paid if and only if the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence of this Section 3.01(c) have been satisfied and, upon the satisfaction of such condition, the Company shall pay all such Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds as if such condition had been satisfied with respect to each such prior Sale.

 

Following Listing, and as soon as practicable after determination of Market Value (defined below), if the Stockholders have received or been deemed to have received total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital and Stockholders’ 10% Return through the date of Listing, the Advisor shall receive a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds in an amount equal to 15% of Net Sales Proceeds less the amount by which the Company’s debt for borrowed money exceeds Aggregate Asset Value after the Listing.  For purposes of the preceding sentence, in addition to actual Distributions received, Stockholders will be deemed to have received Distributions in the amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing price of the Shares over the 30-trading-day period beginning the date of Listing (the “**Market Value**”).  For purposes of this Section 3.01(c), in determining whether the Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds is payable following Listing, in addition to actual Distributions received, Stockholders will be deemed to have received Distributions in the amount equal to the Market Value.

 

(d)                                 Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee.  Following Listing, and as soon as practicable after determination of Market Value, the Advisor shall be entitled to receive a Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee payable in the form of an interest bearing promissory note (the “**SILF Note**”) in a principal amount equal to 15% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the outstanding Shares, measured by taking the Market Value, plus the total of all 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’ 10% Return from inception through the date of Listing.  Interest on the SILF Note will accrue beginning on the date of Listing at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Independent Directors on the date of Listing.  The Company shall repay the SILF Note using the entire Net Sales Proceeds of each Sale after Listing until the SILF Note is paid in full, with interest.  If the SILF Note has not been paid in full within five years from the date of Listing, then the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the SILF NOTE, including accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares 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 no longer listed at such time as the SILF Note

 

15

----

 

becomes convertible into Shares as provided by this paragraph, then the price per Share, for purposes of conversion, shall equal the fair market value for the Shares as determined by the Board based upon the Appraised Value of the Assets as of the date of election.

 

(e)                                  Debt Financing Fee.

 

(i)                                     The Company shall pay the Advisor a Debt Financing Fee, calculated as follows:

 

(A)                              if the Company, the Partnership or any Joint Venture executes and delivers definitive documents governing a Loan (but excluding Loans that are assumed or Revised Loans), a Debt Financing Fee equal to 1.0% of the Commitment Amount; provided, that, in the event that the Company, the Partnership or the Joint Venture simultaneously executes and delivers documents for more than one transaction in respect of the same Loan, the Company shall not be required to pay more than one Debt Financing Fee under this Section 3.01(e)(i)(A) in respect of that particular Loan; and

 

(B)                                in the case of a Loan which is a Revised Loan, a Debt Financing Fee in an amount equal to:  (1) for the first Extension Period, 0.40% of the Commitment Amount; plus (2) for the second Extension Period, 0.30% of the Commitment Amount; plus (3) for the third Extension Period, 0.30% of the Commitment Amount; provided, that the fee for any Extension Period of less than 360 days, will be equal to the product of (I) the full amount of the fee payable under clause (1), (2) or (3), as applicable, and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which will be equal to the number of days in the Extension Period and the denominator of which will be equal to 360.

 

(ii)                                  The Debt Financing Fee shall be paid concurrent with, or subsequent to, the parties executing and delivering definitive documents governing the Loan or Revised Loan.

 

(iii)                               Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.01(e)(i) above, no Debt Financing Fee shall be due for any Loan, including any Revised Loan, resulting from any extension or extensions of the maturity date of an Existing Loan for an aggregate period of less than 120 days from the original Existing Maturity Date.

 

(iv)                              With respect to any Loan or Revised Loan secured by an Asset owned through a Joint Venture, the Advisor shall be entitled to a Debt Financing Fee under Section 3.01(e)(i) if the Advisor obtains the Loan or Revised Loan or performs more than ministerial services in connection with the Joint Venture obtaining the Loan or Revised Loan, which Debt Financing Fee shall be equal to the product of the amount of the Debt Financing Fee, as calculated in accordance with Section 3.01(e)(i), and the Ownership Percentage.  In the case of a Joint Venture, nothing herein shall prohibit the Advisor from receiving a fee from the joint venture partner for debt financing services separate and distinct from the Debt Financing Fee; provided, however, that the Advisor shall have promptly advised the Board of the proposed fee and that the Independent Directors shall have approved the fee.  If the Independent Directors do not authorize the Advisor to accept a separate fee from the joint venture partner, then the Independent Directors may cause the Company to set off any fee paid by the joint venture partner to the Advisor against any Debt Financing Fee due to the Advisor hereunder.

 

16

----

 

(v)                                 The Debt Financing Fee paid to the Advisor shall be deemed to include the reimbursement of the specified cost incurred by the Advisor of engaging third parties to source debt financing, and nothing herein shall prevent the Advisor from entering fee-splitting arrangements with third parties with respect to the Debt Financing Fee; provided that, if, as a result of such arrangement, the fee due the third party exceeds the amount of the Debt Financing Fee that is otherwise due hereunder, no Debt Financing Fee shall be due and payable to the Advisor, and the Company shall be obligated to pay all fees due to the third party or parties; provided, however, that any payment by the Company of fees in excess of the percentages set forth in clause (e)(i) shall be subject to the prior approval of the Board.

 

(f)                                    Limitations on Payments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments shall be made under Sections 3.01(c), 3.01(d) or 4.03(b) if, at or prior to the time the payment is due, the Convertible Shares have been converted into Shares in the case of Sections 3.01(c) and 3.01(d), or, in the case of Section 4.03(b), the determination of the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares has been made in accordance with Section 5.3(iii)(c) of Article V of the Articles of Incorporation, in each case, *without* any reduction in the number of Convertible Shares converted or in the value or number of Shares to be issued upon such conversion that may be triggered under the terms of the Convertible Shares to avoid jeopardizing the Company’s REIT status.  If, however, the Convertible Shares have been converted into Shares in the case of Sections 3.01(c) and 3.01(d), or, in the case of Section 4.03(b), the determination of the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares has been made in accordance with Section 5.3(iii)(c) of Article V of the Articles of Incorporation, in each case, *with* a reduction in the number of Convertible Shares converted or in the value or number of Shares issued upon such conversion triggered under the terms of the Convertible Shares to avoid jeopardizing the Company’s REIT status, (i) no payments otherwise due and payable under Section 3.01(c) (“**Offset Payments**”) shall be paid until the aggregate amount of such Offset Payments equals the aggregate value of the Shares (as determined at the time of such conversion as being the Company Value divided by the number of Shares outstanding at such time) issued or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares, and (ii) any payments otherwise due and payable under Sections 3.01(d) or 4.03(b) shall be reduced, dollar-for-dollar, by an amount equal to the aggregate value of the Shares (as determined at the time of such conversion as being the Company Value divided by the number of Shares outstanding at such time) issued or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares.

 

**3.02****                       ****Expenses**.

 

(a)                                  In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor for the specified cost of all expenses paid by the Advisor in connection with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:

 

(i)                                     Organization and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within 60 days after the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company for any Organization and Offering Expenses reimbursement received by the Advisor pursuant to this Section 3.02, to the extent that such reimbursement exceeds 2% of the Gross Proceeds exclusive of Gross Proceeds from shares sold under the Company’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan.  The Advisor shall be responsible for the payment of all Organization and Offering Expenses in excess of 2% of the Gross Proceeds exclusive of Gross Proceeds from shares sold under the Company’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan;

 

17

----

 

(ii)                                  Acquisition Expenses (except for Audit Expenses which are reimbursable under Section 3.02(a)(xiv) below) paid or incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company; provided that such Acquisition Expenses must be documented by reasonably detailed and itemized invoices.  Nothing in this Section 3.02(a)(ii) shall be construed to require the Advisor to pay or reimburse any Acquisition Expenses which are paid or incurred by the Company;

 

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

(vii)                           expenses of managing, operating and disposing of Assets owned by the Company, whether payable to an Affiliate of the Company or a non-affiliated Person. For the avoidance of doubt, expenses set forth in this clause (vii) shall not include any payment by an Owner (as defined therein) to the Manager (as defined therein) under the Second Amended and Restated Property Management and Leasing Agreement dated as of December 29, 2006, by and among the Company, the Partnership and HPT Management Services LP, a Texas limited partnership;

(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, revising, amending, converting, modifying, or terminating the Company or the Articles of Incorporation;

 

(xii)                             expenses of any third party transfer agent for the Shares and 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)                          administrative expenses, including Personnel Costs and Shared Services Burden (in each case only to the extent reasonably allocated, in good faith, for that portion of the personnel or service provided to the Company, the Partnership or any Joint

 

18

----

 

Venture on the Company’s behalf); provided, however, that the Company shall not reimburse the Advisor for any portion of any Personnel Costs (as determined by the Advisor based on its review of the time sheets or other billing records and receipts of the Advisor Personnel) attributable to the Advisor Personnel while performing asset management, acquisition services or services related to any potential or actual entry into a Loan or Revised Loan;

 

(xiv)                         Audit Expenses, accounting and legal fees;

 

(xv)                            Acquisition Expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with acquisition transactions that were not completed or closed by the Company; and

 

(b)                                 Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and payable pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be reimbursed no less than quarterly to the Advisor within 60 days after the end of each quarter.  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.

 

**3.03****                       ****Other Services**.  Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Section 2.02, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Independent Directors, 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.

 

**3.04****                       ****Reimbursement to the Advisor**.  The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor for Total Operating Expenses to the extent that Total Operating Expenses (including the Asset Management Fee), in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “**Expense Year**”) exceed (the “**Excess Amount**”) the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income for such year.  Any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company.  Reimbursement of all or any portion of the Total Operating Expenses that exceed the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence may, at the option of the Advisor, be deferred without interest and may be reimbursed in any subsequent Expense Year where such limitation would permit such reimbursement if the Total Operating Expense were incurred during such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is an Excess Amount in any Expense Year and the Independent Directors determine that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, the Excess Amount may be reimbursed to the Advisor.  Within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which there is an Excess Amount which the Independent Directors conclude was justified and reimbursable to the Advisor, there shall be sent 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 Amount was justified. Such determination shall be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board.

**3.05****                             ****Fees Paid**.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) all fees paid to the Advisor by the Company or expenses reimbursed to the Advisor by the Company, from inception of the Company up to and including December 31, 2010, are reflected on the Company’s “Consolidated Audited Financial Statements,” and the related notes thereto, as of and for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and (ii) the Advisor shall have no liability or obligation to repay the Company any fees or expenses paid or reimbursed to the Advisor by the Company from inception of the Company for periods ended, prior to, or for, December 31, 2010.

**ARTICLE IV**

 

**TERM AND TERMINATION**

 

**4.01****                       ****Term; Renewal**.  Subject to Section 4.02 hereof, this Agreement shall continue in force until the first anniversary of its effective date.  Thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year terms upon mutual consent of the parties.  It is the duty of the Board to evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing the Agreement, and each such renewal shall be for a term of no more than one year.

 

**4.02****                       ****Termination**.  This Agreement will automatically terminate upon Listing.  This agreement also may be terminated at the option of either party (i) immediately upon a Change of Control or (ii) upon 60 days written notice without cause or penalty (in either case, if termination is by the Company, then such termination shall be upon the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement that provide for payment to the Advisor of expenses, fees or other compensation following the date of termination (*i.e.*, Sections 3.01(d) and 4.03) shall continue in full force and effect until all amounts payable thereunder to the Advisor are paid in full.

 

**4.03****                       ****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 and receive from the Company within 30 days after the effective date of such termination all unpaid reimbursements of expenses, subject to the provisions of Section 3.04 hereof, and all contingent liabilities related to fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement, provided that the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee, if any, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01(d).  In the event the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no Performance Fee will be paid to the Advisor pursuant to Section 4.03(b) below.

 

(b)                                 Upon termination, unless such termination is by the Company because of a material breach of this Agreement by the Advisor, or upon Listing (in which case any Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee will be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01(d)), the Advisor shall be entitled to receive a Performance Fee payable in the form of an interest bearing promissory note (the “**Performance Fee Note**”) in a principal amount equal to the product of 0.15 times the amount, if any, by which (i) the Company Value plus the total Distributions paid to holders of Shares through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) the sum of the aggregate Invested Capital plus the Stockholders’ 10% Return through the Termination Date.  Interest on the Performance Fee Note will accrue beginning on the Termination Date at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Independent Directors.  The Company shall repay the Performance Fee Note using the entire Net Sales Proceeds of each Sale after the Termination Date until the Performance Fee Note is paid in full, with interest.  If the Performance Fee Note has not been paid in full within five years from the Termination Date, then the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the Performance Fee Note, including accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares at a price per Share equal to the average Closing Price of

 

20

----

 

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 at such time, the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the Performance Fee Note, including accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares at a price per Share equal to the fair market value for the Shares as determined by the Board based upon the Appraised Value of the Assets on the date of election.  In no event will the amount paid to the Advisor under the Performance Fee Note, including interest, exceed the amount considered presumptively reasonable under Section IV.F. of the NASAA Guidelines (the “**NASAA Limit**”).  In such event, the aggregate amount payable under the Performance Fee Note, including interest, shall be reduced to an amount equal to the NASAA Limit.

 

(c)                                  In the event that the Advisor disagrees with the valuation of Shares pursuant to Section 4.03(b) where the Shares are not Listed, for purposes of determining the number of shares to be issued to the Advisor following the Advisor’s election to convert the balance of the Performance Fee Note owed to the Advisor, then the fair market value of such shares shall be determined by an independent appraiser of equity value selected by the Advisor and the Company.  If the Advisor and the Company are unable to agree upon an expert independent appraiser, then each of the Company and the Advisor shall name one appraiser and the two named appraisers shall promptly agree in good faith to the appointment of one such appraiser whose determination shall be final and binding on the parties.  The cost of such appraisal shall be shared evenly between the Company and the Advisor.

 

(d)                                 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 the Assets, and documents of the Company then in the custody of the Advisor; and

 

(iv)                              cooperate with the Company and take all reasonable actions requested by the Company to provide an orderly transition of the advisory function.

 

**ARTICLE V**

 

**INDEMNIFICATION**

 

**5.01****                       ****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, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland and the Articles of Incorporation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, under the Articles of Incorporation, the Company shall not indemnify or hold harmless the

 

21

----

 

Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, for any liability or loss suffered by the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, nor shall it provide that the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Company, unless all of the following conditions are met:  (i) the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, 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, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, were acting on behalf of or performing services for the Company; (iii) such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees; and (iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s net assets and not from stockholders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, shall not be indemnified by the Company for any losses, liability or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met:  (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; and (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.

 

(b)                                 The Articles of Incorporation provide that the advancement of Company funds to the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which indemnification is being sought is permissible only if all of the following conditions are satisfied:  (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company; (ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a stockholder or the legal action is initiated by a stockholder acting in his or her capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement; (iii) the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, undertake to repay the advanced funds to the Company together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which such Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, are found not to be entitled to indemnification.

 

(c)                                  The indemnity provided for pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall extend, without limitation, to any claims to the extent relating to any of the events or outcomes set forth in the Prospectus as possible results, outcomes or risks associated with the business and investment objectives of the Company.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.01, the Advisor shall not be entitled to indemnification or be held harmless pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any activity with respect to which the Advisor shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to Section 5.02.

 

**5.02****                       ****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,

 

22

----

 

misfeasance, misconduct, negligence 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 any advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.

 

**ARTICLE VI**

 

**MISCELLANEOUS**

 

**6.01****                       ****Incorporation of Recitals**. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated and made a part of this Agreement.

 

**6.02****                       ****Assignment to an Affiliate**.  This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate of the Advisor with the approval of a majority of the Board (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 Board.  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.  This Agreement shall be binding on successors to the Company resulting from a Change of Control or sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company or the Partnership, and shall likewise be binding upon any successor to the Advisor.

 

**6.03****                       ****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.

 

**6.04****                       ****Treatment Under Texas Margin Tax**.  For purposes of the Texas margin tax, the Advisor’s performance of the services specified in this Agreement will cause the Advisor to conduct part of the active trade or business of the Company, and the compensation specified in Article III includes both the payment of management fees and the reimbursement of specified costs incurred in the Advisor’s conduct of the active trade or business of the Company.  Therefore, the Advisor and Company intend Advisor to be, and shall treat Advisor as, a “management company” within the meaning of Section 171.0001(11) of the Texas Tax Code.  The Company and the Advisor will apply Sections 171.1011(m-1) and 171.1013(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code to the Company’s reimbursements paid to the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement of specified costs and wages and compensation.  The Advisor and the Company further recognize and intend that (i) as a result of the fiduciary relationship created by this Agreement and acknowledged in Section 2.02, reimbursements paid to the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement are “flow-though funds” that the Advisor is mandated by law or fiduciary duty to distribute, within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f) of the Texas Tax Code, and (ii) as a result of Advisor’s contractual duties under this Agreement, certain reimbursements under this Agreement are “flow-through funds” mandated by contract to be distributed within the meaning of Section 171.1011(g) of the Texas Tax Code.  The terms of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the characterization of the Advisor as a “management company” as defined in Section 171.0001(11), and with the characterization of the reimbursements as “flow-though funds” within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code.

 

**6.05****                       ****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

This Agreement may be executed in multiple 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.

**6.14****                       ****Name****. **Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC and/or one or more of its Affiliates has a proprietary interest in the names “Harvard” (for the businesses engaged in by the Company and its Affiliates) and “Behringer” (for all purposes).  Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company ceases to retain Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC or an Affiliate thereof to perform the services of Advisor, the Company will, promptly after receipt of written request from Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC, cease to conduct business under or use the name “Harvard” or “Behringer” 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 “Harvard” or “Behringer” or any other word or words that might, in the sole discretion of Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC or any Affiliate thereof. Consistent with the foregoing, it is specifically recognized that Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC 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 “Harvard” or “Behringer” 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.

 

**6.15****                       ****Initial Investment**.  The Advisor or one of its Affiliates has contributed $200,000 (the “**Initial Investment**”) in exchange for the initial issuance of Shares of the Company.  The Advisor or its Affiliates may not sell any of the Shares purchased with the Initial Investment while the Advisor acts in an advisory capacity to the Company.  The restrictions included above shall not apply to any Shares acquired by the Advisor or its Affiliates other than the Shares acquired through the Initial Investment.

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.
