to an Acquisition Fee for any Investments acquired after the Termination Date for which a contract to acquire any such Investment
had been entered into at or prior to the Termination Date. The total Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor or its Affiliates shall

Investment and then reinvests in other Investments, the Company will pay to the Advisor or its Affiliates one percent
(1.0%) of the Contract Purchase Price of the Investments.

 

(b) Limitation on Total Acquisition Fees
and Acquisition Expenses.

 

(i) The total of all “Acquisition
Fees” (as defined in the Articles of Incorporation) and Acquisition Expenses payable in connection with the Company’s
total portfolio of Investments and reinvestments, if any, shall be reasonable and shall not exceed an amount equal to four and
one-half percent (4.5%) of the Contract Purchase Price of the Company’s total portfolio of Investments or four and one-half
percent (4.5%) of the amount advanced for the Company’s total portfolio of Investments; provided, however, that
once all the proceeds from the initial Offering have been fully invested, the total of all Acquisition Fees shall not exceed one
and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Contract Purchase Price of all the Investments acquired.

 

(ii) In accordance with the Articles
of Incorporation, the total of all Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses payable in connection with any Investment or any reinvestment
shall be reasonable and shall not exceed an amount equal to four and one-half percent (4.5%) of the Contract Purchase Price of
the Investment or four and one-half percent (4.5%) of the amount advanced for any Investment; provided, further, however,
that a majority of the Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise interested in the transaction
may approve fees and expenses in excess of these limits if they determine the transaction to be commercially competitive, fair
and reasonable to the Company.

 

(c) Real Estate Commission. In
connection with a Sale of a Real Estate Asset in which the Advisor or any Affiliate of the Advisor provides a substantial amount
of services, as determined by the Independent Directors, the Company shall pay to the Advisor or its assignees a Real Estate Commission
up to the lesser of (i) two percent (2.0%) of the Contract Sales Price of such Real Estate Asset or (ii) one-half of the Competitive
Real Estate Commission paid if a non-Affiliate broker is also involved; provided, however , that in no event may the Real Estate
Commission paid to the Advisor, its Affiliates and non-Affiliates, exceed the lesser of six percent (6.0%) of the Contract Sales
Price and a Competitive Real Estate Commission.

 

(d) Asset Management Fee. The
Company shall pay an Asset Management Fee to the Advisor or its assignees as compensation for services rendered in connection with

The Asset Management Fee will be reduced to the extent that NAREIT FFO, as adjusted, during the six months ending on the last day
of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date that such Asset Management Fee is payable, is less than the Distributions
paid with respect to such six month period. For purposes of this determination, NAREIT FFO, as adjusted, is NAREIT FFO adjusted

(e) Subordinated Performance Fee.
The Company may pay an Annual Subordinated Performance Fee to the Advisor calculated on the basis of the total return to Stockholders,
payable monthly in arrears in any year in which the Company’s total return on Stockholders’ capital contributions exceeds
six percent (6%) per annum. In such year, the Advisor will be paid fifteen percent (15%) of the excess total return, not to exceed
ten percent (10%) of the aggregate total return for such year. This fee will only be payable upon the sale of assets
or other event which results in the Company’s total return on Stockholders’ Capital contributions exceeding six percent
(6%) per annum.

 

(f) Payment of Fees. In
connection with the Acquisition Fee, Real Estate Commission and Annual Subordinated Performance Fee, the Company shall pay such
fees to the Advisor or its assignees in cash or in Shares, or a combination of both, the form of payment to be determined in the
sole discretion of the Advisor. The Asset Management Fee shall be payable, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, in cash,
Shares or grants of restricted Shares, or any combination thereof. For the purposes of the payment of any fees in Shares, prior
to the end of the escrow period and the acquisition of the Company’s first Real Estate Asset, each Share shall be valued
at the per share offering price of our Shares in the initial Offering minus the maximum Selling Commissions, Platform Fees and
Dealer Manager Fee allowed in the initial Offering. Following the escrow period and the acquisition of the Company’s first
Real Estate Asset, each Share shall be valued using NAV; provided, however, that in the case of Asset Management

plan of the Company pursuant to which such grants are to be made.

 

(g) Exclusion of Certain Transactions.

 

(i) If the Company or the Operating
Partnership shall propose to enter into any transaction in which the Advisor, any Affiliate of the Advisor or any of the Advisor’s
directors or officers has a direct or indirect interest, then such transaction shall be approved by a majority of the Board not
otherwise interested in such transaction, including a majority of the Independent Directors.

 

(ii) If the Board elects to internalize
any management services provided by the Advisor, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership shall pay any compensation or
other remuneration to the Advisor or its Affiliates in connection with the internalization transaction; provided, that nothing
in this Section 10(g) shall create any right to (x) any assets, intellectual property, personnel or pipeline of assets of the Advisor
or its Affiliates or (y) terminate the Agreement other than as set forth in Section 17.

 

(h) Limitation on Insourced Acquisition
Expenses.

 

(i) The total of all Insourced Acquisition
Expenses with respect to any Investment shall initially be fixed at, and shall not exceed, 0.50% of the Contract Purchase Price
of the Investment or 0.50% of the amount advanced for an Investment, which the Company shall pay to the Advisor or its Affiliate
at the closing of each Investment. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment in respect of Insourced Acquisition Expenses shall be
made unless the Advisor or its Affiliates shall have performed services related to selecting, evaluating and acquiring an Investment,
regardless of whether such Investment is ultimately acquired.

 

(ii) The total of all Insourced Acquisition
Expenses for any calendar year shall initially be fixed at, and shall not exceed, 0.50% of the Contract Purchase Price of the Investments
acquired during such period or 0.50% of the amounts advanced for the Investments made during such period (to be prorated for any
partial calendar year);provided, however, within a reasonable period of time following the end of each such calendar
year, the Company shall perform a Market Check and provide the results thereof to the Advisor within a reasonable period of time
and, if the result of the Market Check is that the projected amount of Acquisition Expenses that would be incurred if substantially
similar services with respect to a substantially similar amount of properties were to be provided by a Person other than the Advisor
or any of its Affiliates during the subsequent calendar year is lower than the amount of Insourced Acquisition Expenses paid to
the Advisor or its Affiliates during the previous calendar year, either (A) the Advisor shall agree to reduce the cap on the Insourced
Acquisition Expenses until the next Market Check such that the cap on Insourced Acquisition Expenses does not exceed the projected
amount of Acquisition Expenses that would be incurred if substantially similar services with respect to a substantially similar
amount of properties were to be provided by a Person other than the Advisor or any of its Affiliates during the subsequent calendar
year or (B) the Company may outsource to a Person other than the Advisor or its Affiliate certain services previously provided
by the Advisor or its Affiliates until the next Market Check.

and the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, including, the following:

 

(i) Organization and Offering Expenses,
including third-party due diligence fees related to the Primary Offering, as set forth in detailed and itemized invoices; provided,
however , that the Company shall not reimburse the Advisor to the extent such reimbursement would cause the total amount of Organization

Proceeds raised in all Primary Offerings;

 

(ii) Acquisition Expenses, subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 10(b), and Insourced Acquisition Expenses, subject to the limitations set forth

that such employees perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee; and

 

    	12

    	 

    

 

(xiv) audit, accounting and legal
fees.

 

(b) Commencing upon the earlier to occur of
(i) the fifth fiscal quarter after the Company makes its first Investment and (ii) six (6) months after the commencement of the
initial Offering, expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and the Operating Partnership or in connection with

Insourced Acquisition Expenses which shall be paid as described in Section 10(i)(i) of this Agreement), no less
than monthly, to the Advisor.

 

12. OTHER SERVICES. Should
the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company and the Operating
Partnership other than set forth in Section 3, such services shall be separately compensated at such customary rates
and in such customary amounts as are agreed upon by the Advisor and the Board, including a majority of 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.

 

13. REIMBURSEMENT TO THE ADVISOR. The
Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Total Operating Expenses incurred by the Advisor
for the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) exceed (the “Excess Amount”)
the greater of two percent (2%) of Average Invested Assets or twenty-five percent (25%) of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”)
for such year. Any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company or, at the option of
the Company, subtracted from the Total Operating Expenses reimbursed during the subsequent fiscal quarter. 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, then the Excess Amount may be carried over and included in Total Operating Expenses in subsequent
Expense Years and reimbursed to the Advisor in one or more of such years, provided that 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 expenses were justified. Such determination shall be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board. All
figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.

 

14. OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR. Except
as set forth in this Section 14, nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor or any of its Affiliates from engaging

of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Sponsor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict
the right of any director, officer, member, partner, employee or stockholder of the Advisor or any of its Affiliates to engage
in or earn fees from any other business or to render services of any kind to any other Person and earn fees for rendering such
services; provided, however , that the Advisor must devote sufficient resources to the Company’s business to discharge its
obligations to the Company under 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, and earn fees for rendering such advice and service.
Specifically, it is contemplated that the Company may enter into Joint Ventures or other similar co-investment arrangements with
certain Persons, and pursuant to the agreements governing such Joint Ventures or arrangements, the Advisor may be engaged to provide
advice and service to such Persons, in which case the Advisor will earn fees for rendering such advice and service.

 

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.
If the 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, the Advisor shall inform the Board of the method to be applied
by the Advisor in allocating investment opportunities among the Company and competing investment entities and shall provide regular
updates to the Board of the investment opportunities provided by the Advisor to competing programs in order for the Board (including
the Independent Directors) to fulfill its duty to ensure that the Advisor and its Affiliates use their reasonable best efforts
to apply such method fairly to the Company.

15. THE AMERICAN REALTY CAPITAL NAME. The
Advisor and its Affiliates have or may have a proprietary interest in the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC”

non-assignable, non-exclusive, royalty-free right and license to use the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC”
and “AR Capital” during the term of this Agreement. The Company agrees that the Advisor and its Affiliates will have
the right to approve of any use by the Company of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR
Capital,” such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 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 names “American
Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” 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 names “American Realty Capital,”
“ARC” and “AR Capital” 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
words “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital.” 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 any of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” as
a part of their name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by the Company. Neither the
Advisor nor any of its Affiliates makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the names “American
Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” licensed hereunder or the use thereof (including without
limitation as to whether the use of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR “Capital”
will be free from infringement of the intellectual property rights of third parties. Notwithstanding the preceding, the Advisor
represents and warrants that it is not aware of any pending claims or litigation or of any claims threatened in writing regarding
the use or ownership of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital.”

The provisions of Sections 19 through 31 of this Agreement shall survive termination of this
Agreement.

Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of a majority of the Directors (including a majority
of the Independent Directors). The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement to any
Person without obtaining the approval of the Directors. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company or the Operating Partnership
without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the Company or the Operating Partnership to a Person
which is a successor to all the assets, rights and obligations of the Company or the Operating Partnership, in which case such
successor Person shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Company or the Operating
Partnership, as applicable, is bound by this Agreement.

Advisor shall promptly upon termination of this Agreement:

with the same force and effect as if they were set forth herein.

 

21. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY AND THE
OPERATING PARTNERSHIP.

 

(a) The Company and the Operating Partnership,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, as well as their respective officers,

II.G of the NASAA REIT Guidelines. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not
provide for indemnification of an Indemnitee for any Loss suffered by such Indemnitee, nor shall they provide that an Indemnitee
be held harmless for any Loss suffered by the Company and the Operating Partnership, unless all the following conditions are met:

in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best interest of the Company and the Operating
Partnership;

 

(ii) the Indemnitee was acting on
behalf of, or performing services for, the Company or the Operating Partnership;

 

(iii) such Loss was not the result
of negligence or willful misconduct by the Indemnitee; and

 

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

 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee

on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the Indemnitee;

with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the Indemnitee; or

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
or the Operating Partnership were offered or sold as to indemnification for violation of securities laws.

 

    	15

    	 

    

 

(c) In addition, the advancement of the Company’s
or the Operating Partnership’s funds to an Indemnitee 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 the following conditions are satisfied:

or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership;

 

(ii) the legal action is initiated

repay the advanced funds to the Company or the Operating Partnership, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon,
in cases in which such Indemnitee is found not to be entitled to indemnification.

 

22. INDEMNIFICATION BY ADVISOR. The
Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership from Losses, including reasonable attorneys’
fees to the extent that such Losses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Advisor’s bad
faith, fraud, willful misfeasance, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties; provided, however
, that 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..

REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE

 

Corporate Office Properties, L.P.
 5.00% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2025

 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its 5.00% Senior Notes due 2025 (herein called the “Notes”), issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of September 16, 2013 (herein called the “Original Indenture”), among the Issuer, Corporate Office Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Guarantor”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 29, 2015 (herein called the “Third Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Original Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee, to which Indenture and any indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes.  Defined terms used but not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5), 501(6) or 501(7) of the Original Indenture with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes may be declared to be due and payable by either the Trustee or the Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and, upon said declaration the same shall be immediately due and payable.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5), 501(6) or 501(7) of the Original Indenture occurs with respect to the Issuer, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest accrued and unpaid on all the Notes shall be immediately and automatically due and payable without necessity of further action.

 

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes, subject to exceptions set forth in Section 902 of the Original Indenture.  Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any past Default or Event of Default, subject to exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall impair, as among the Issuer and the Holder of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, on and interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

 

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

The Notes are issuable in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and any multiple of $2,000.  At the office or agency of the Issuer referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without payment of any service charge but with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration or exchange of Notes, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any other authorized denominations.

 

 

The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes under certain circumstances as set forth in Section 1.4(d), Section 1.4(e) and Section 1.4(f) of the Third Supplemental Indenture.

 

The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund.

 

Except as expressly provided in Article 16 of the Original Indenture, no recourse for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the Indenture or any supplemental indenture or in any Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, limited partner, member, manager, employee, agent, officer, director or subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Guarantor, the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries or of any successor thereto, either directly or through the Guarantor, the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s subsidiaries or of any successor thereto, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as consideration for, the execution of the Indenture and the issue of this Note.
