agents and representatives of the Advisor or the Company as it may deem appropriate. Any authority delegated by the Advisor to any other Person shall be subject to the limitations on the rights and powers of the Advisor specifically set forth in
this Agreement or the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. 
 4.02 Powers of the Advisor. Subject to the express limitations set forth
in this Agreement and the continuing and exclusive authority of the Board of Directors over the management of the Company, the power to direct the management, operation and policies of the Company shall be vested in the Advisor, which shall have the
power by itself and shall be authorized and empowered on behalf and in the name of the Company to carry out any and all of the objectives and purposes of the Company and to perform all acts and enter into and perform all contracts and other
undertakings that it may in its sole discretion deem necessary, advisable or incidental thereto to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 ARTICLE 5 
 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 of
Directors may approve, provided that no funds shall be commingled with the funds of the Advisor. The Advisor shall from time to time render appropriate accountings of such collections and payments to the Board and the auditors of the Company.

 ARTICLE 6 
 RECORDS AND
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 The Advisor, in the conduct of its responsibilities to the Company, shall maintain adequate and separate books and
records for the Company’s operations in accordance with GAAP, which shall be supported by sufficient documentation to ascertain that such books and records are properly and accurately recorded. Such books and records shall be the property of
the Company and shall be available for inspection by the Board and by counsel, auditors and other authorized agents of the Company, at any time or from time to time during normal business hours. Such books and records shall include all information
necessary to calculate and audit the fees or reimbursements paid under this Agreement. The Advisor shall utilize procedures to attempt to ensure such control over accounting and financial transactions as is reasonably required to protect the
Company’s assets from theft, error or fraudulent activity. All financial statements that the Advisor delivers to the Company shall be prepared on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, except for special financial reports that by their
nature require a deviation from GAAP. The Advisor shall liaise with the Company’s officers and independent auditors and shall provide such officers and auditors with the reports and other information that the Company so requests. 
 ARTICLE 7 
 LIMITATION ON ACTIVITIES

 Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Advisor shall not take any action that, in its sole judgment made in
good faith, would (i) adversely affect the ability of the Company to qualify or continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code, (ii) subject the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (iii) violate
any law, rule, regulation or statement of policy of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Company, its Shares or its other securities, (iv) require the Advisor to register as a broker-dealer with the SEC or any state, or
(v) violate the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. In the event an action 

  

 14

shall notify the Board of Directors 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 of Directors. In such event,
the Advisor shall have no liability for acting in accordance with the specific instructions of the Board of Directors so given. 
 ARTICLE 8

 FEES 
 8.01 Acquisition Fees.
As compensation for the investigation, selection and acquisition (by purchase, investment or exchange) of Properties, Loans and other Permitted Investments, the Company shall pay Acquisition Fees to the Advisor for each such investment. With respect
to the acquisition of a Property to be wholly owned by the Company, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor shall equal 0.75% of the sum of the amount actually paid or allocated to the purchase, development, construction or improvement of such
Property, inclusive of the Acquisition Expenses associated with such Property, and the amount of any debt attributable to such Property. With respect to the acquisition of Properties through any Joint Venture or partnership in which the Company is a
co-venturer or partner, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor shall equal 0.75% of the portion of the amount actually paid or allocated to the purchase, development, construction or improvement of the Property, inclusive of the Acquisition
Expenses associated with such Property, plus the amount of any outstanding debt associated with such property that is attributable to the Company’s investment in the Joint Venture or partnership. With respect to Loans and other Permitted
Investments, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor shall equal 0.75% of the cost of such investment, inclusive of Acquisition Expenses associated with such investment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment of Acquisition
Fees by the Company shall be subject to the limitations contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. The Advisor shall submit an invoice to the Company following the closing or closings of each acquisition, accompanied by a computation
of the Acquisition Fee. The Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor shall be paid at the closing of the acquisition upon receipt of the invoice by the Company. 
 8.02 Asset Management Fees. 
 (i) Except as provided in Section 8.02(ii) hereof, the
Company shall pay the Advisor as compensation for the services described in Article 3 hereof a monthly fee (the “Asset Management Fee”) in an amount equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the sum of the Cost of Real Estate Investments and the
outstanding principal amount of the Loans and other Permitted Investments, as of the end of the preceding month. The Advisor shall submit a monthly invoice to the Company, accompanied by a computation of the Asset Management Fee for the applicable
period. The Asset Management Fee shall be payable on the last day of such month, or the first business day following the last day of such month. The 

  

 15 








 
Asset Management Fee may or may not be taken, in whole or in part, as to any year in the sole discretion of the Advisor. All or any portion of the Asset
Management Fee not taken as to any fiscal year shall be deferred without interest and may be taken in such other fiscal year as the Advisor shall determine. 
 (ii) The Asset Management Fee described in Section 8.02(i) hereof is not payable with respect to the Company’s investment in the
New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC and Cost of Real Estate Investments as used in Section 8.02(i) shall not include the Company’s allocable portion of its investment in the New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC. Instead, with respect to the Company’s
investment in the New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC, the Company shall pay the Advisor a separate management fee (the “New Leaf-KBS Management Fee”) as follows: 
 The Company shall pay the Advisor as compensation for the services described in Article 3 hereof a monthly fee related to the New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC as follows: 
  

			
	 Months of
Ownership
of
Investment
	  	 New Leaf-KBS Management Fee

	1 - 36	  	 1/12 of 0.27% of Cost of JV
Investment
	Month 37+	  	To be negotiated upon renewal of advisory agreement

 The Advisor shall submit a monthly invoice to the Company, accompanied by a computation of the New
Leaf-KBS Management Fee for the applicable period. The New Leaf-KBS Management Fee shall be payable on the last day of such month, or the first business day following the last day of such month. The New Leaf-KBS Management Fee may or may not be
taken, in whole or in part, as to any year in the sole discretion of the Advisor. All or any portion of the New Leaf-KBS Management Fee not taken as to any fiscal year shall be deferred without interest and may be taken in such other fiscal year as
the Advisor shall determine. 
 In addition, if at any time during the Company’s ownership of an interest in the New Leaf – KBS JV,
LLC, the Company’s funds from operations for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through the date of any such calculation exceed an amount that is equal to a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on Invested Capital for the
Company’s Stockholders for the period from July 18, 2006 through the date of such reimbursement (the “7% Return”), then as of the date of such calculation the Advisor shall earn a fee (the “Performance Fee”) in an
amount that would make the Advisor’s cumulative fees related to the Company’s investment in the New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC (including the New Leaf-KBS Management Fee set forth above and any Performance Fee amounts already paid) equal to
0.75% of the Cost of JV Investment on an annualized basis from the date of the Company’s investment in the New Leaf – KBS JV, LLC through the date of calculation, provided that on any calculation date the Advisor shall earn only 

  

 16 








 
the portion of this amount that is available from the Company’s positive funds from operations for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through
the date of any such calculation less the 7% Return. 
 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.02(ii), no Performance Fee
will be earned unless and until the Advance described in Article 16 hereof, as amended in the future, has been repaid in full. 
 8.03
Disposition Fees. If the Advisor or any of its Affiliates provide a substantial amount of services (as determined by the Conflicts Committee) in connection with a Sale, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive a fee at the closing (the
“Disposition Fee”) equal to 1.0% of the Contract Sales Price; provided, however, that no Disposition Fee shall be payable to the Advisor for any Sale if such Sale involves the Company selling all or substantially all of its assets 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 8.03 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) 6.0% of the aggregate Contract Sales Price of each Property or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for each Property. Substantial assistance in
connection with the sale of a Property includes the Advisor’s preparation of an investment package for the Property (including a new investment analysis, rent rolls, tenant information regarding credit, a property title report, an environmental
report, a structural report and exhibits) or such other substantial services performed by the Advisor in connection with a sale. 
 8.04
Subordinated Share of Cash Flows. The Subordinated Share of Cash Flows shall be payable to the Advisor in an amount equal to 15% of Operating Cash Flow and Cash from Sales and Financings remaining after the Stockholders have received Distributions
of Operating Cash Flow and of Cash from Sales and Financings such that the owners of all outstanding Shares have received Distributions in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of: 
  

	 	a.	the Stockholders’ 8% Return and 

  

	 	b.	Invested Capital. 

 When determining whether the above threshold has been
met: 
  

	 	(A)	Any stock dividend shall not be included as a Distribution; 

  

	 	(B)	Distributions paid on Shares redeemed by the Company (and thus no longer included in the determination of Invested Capital), shall not be included as a Distribution.


 Following Listing, no Subordinated Share of Cash Flows will be paid to the Advisor. 
  

 17 








 8.05 Subordinated Incentive Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor shall be entitled to the Subordinated
Incentive Fee in an amount equal to 15.0% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the outstanding Shares of the Company, measured by taking the average closing price or the average of the bid and asked price, as the case may be, over a
period of 30 days during which the Shares are traded, with such period beginning 180 days after Listing (the “Market Value”), plus the total of all Distributions paid to Stockholders (excluding any stock dividends) from the Company’s
inception until the date that Market Value is determined, 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’ 8% Return
from inception through the date Market Value is determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a promissory note or any combination of the foregoing. The Subordinated Incentive Fee will be reduced by the
amount of any prior payment to the Advisor of a Subordinated Share of Cash Flows. In the event the Subordinated Incentive Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no other performance fee will be paid to the Advisor. 
 8.06 Changes to Fee Structure. In the event of Listing, the Company and the Advisor shall negotiate in good faith to establish a fee structure
appropriate for a perpetual-life entity. 
 ARTICLE 9 
 EXPENSES 
 9.01 General. In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Article 8 hereof,

within 60 days after the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company to the extent the Company incurred Organization and Offering Expenses exceeding 15% of the Gross Proceeds raised in the completed

 (ii) Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of Properties, Loans and other

 (x) Out-of-pocket 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;

 (ii) Notwithstanding anything else in this Article 9 to the contrary, the expenses enumerated in this Article 9 shall not become
reimbursable to the Advisor unless and until the Company has raised $2.5 million in its initial public offering. 
 (iii) The

sufficient. If the Conflicts Committee 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 the Conflicts Committee determines such excess was justified,
then, within 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%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of the Conflicts Committee, shall send to the
Stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Conflicts Committee 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 GAAP applied on a consistent basis. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 VOTING AGREEMENT 
 The Advisor agrees that, with respect to any Shares now or hereinafter owned by it, the Advisor will not vote or consent on matters submitted to the
stockholders of the Company regarding (i) the removal of the Advisor or any Affiliate of the Advisor or (ii) any transaction between the Company and the Advisor or any of its Affiliates. This voting restriction shall survive until such
time that the Advisor is both no longer serving as such and is no longer an Affiliate of the Company. 
  

 20 








 ARTICLE 11 
 RELATIONSHIP OF ADVISOR AND COMPANY; 
 OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR 
 11.01 Relationship. 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. 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 manager, director, officer, employee or equityholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other
business or to render services of any kind to any other Person. 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
promptly disclose to the Board of Directors the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, that 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. 
 11.02 Time Commitment. The Advisor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and
their respective employees, officers and agents to, devote to the Company such time as shall be reasonably necessary to conduct the business and affairs of the Company in an appropriate manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Company
acknowledges that the Advisor and its Affiliates and their respective employees, officers and agents may also engage in activities unrelated to the Company and may provide services to Persons other than the Company or any of its Affiliates.

 11.03 Investment Opportunities and Allocation. The Advisor shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present a
continuing and suitable investment program to the Company that 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 that, if presented to the Company, could be taken by the Company. In the event an investment opportunity is located, the allocation procedure set forth under the caption
“Conflicts of Interest – Certain Conflict Resolution Procedures – Allocation of Investment Opportunities” in the Registration Statement shall govern the allocation of the opportunity among the Company and Affiliates of the
Advisor. 
  

 21 








 ARTICLE 12 
 THE KBS NAME 
 The Advisor and its Affiliates have a proprietary interest in the name “KBS.” The
Advisor hereby grants to the Company a non-transferable, non-assignable, non-exclusive royalty-free right and license to use the name “KBS” during the term of this Agreement. Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time
the Company ceases to retain the Advisor or one of its Affiliates to perform advisory services for the Company, the Company will, promptly after receipt of written request from the Advisor, cease to conduct business under or use the name
“KBS” or any derivative thereof and the Company shall change its name and the names of any of its subsidiaries to a name that does not contain the name “KBS” or any other word or words that might, in the reasonable discretion of
the Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and the Advisor or any its Affiliates. At such time, the Company will also make any changes to any trademarks, servicemarks or other marks necessary to remove
any references to the word “KBS.” Consistent with the foregoing, it is specifically recognized 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 organizations having “KBS” as a part of their name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by the
Company. 
 ARTICLE 13

 13.02 Termination by Either
Party. This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice without cause or penalty by either the Company (acting through the Conflicts Committee) or the Advisor. The provisions of Articles 1, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 shall survive

Agreement, if any, after deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which it is then entitled;

 ARTICLE 14 
 ASSIGNMENT 
 This Agreement may be assigned
by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the consent of the Conflicts Committee. The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Board of Directors. 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 that 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. 
 ARTICLE 15 
 INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 
 The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, equity holders,
partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of 

  

 23 








 
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 Company’s the Articles of Incorporation. Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and not from
Stockholders. 
 ARTICLE 16 
 ADVANCE 
 Notwithstanding anything contained in Article 9 of this Agreement to the contrary, the Advisor hereby agrees to advance
funds (the “Advance”) to the Company equal to the amount by which the cumulative amount of distributions declared by the Company from January 1, 2006 through the period ending January 31, 2008 exceeds the amount of the
Company’s funds from operations (as defined by NAREIT) from January 1, 2006 through January 31, 2008. Advisor further agrees that the Company will only be obligated to reimburse the Advisor for the Advance if and to the extent that
the Company’s cumulative funds from operations for the period commencing January 1, 2006 through the date of any such reimbursement exceed the lesser of (i) the cumulative amount of any distributions declared and payable to the
Company’s Stockholders as of the date of such reimbursement or (ii) an amount that is equal to a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on Invested Capital for the Company’s Stockholders for the period from July 18, 2006
through the date of such reimbursement. Advisor understands and agrees that no interest shall accrue on the Advance being made under this Agreement.
