     RE: LITIGATION SUPPORT CONSULTING AGREEMENT

Dear Ernest:

In light of your past position with Hill-Rom and knowledge you have acquired
over the past several years, we will need your assistance to successfully
prosecute and defend various pending legal matters (including the Spartanburg
litigation, the Mextel litigation, the Versus litigation, the Joseph Piacentile
(Qui Tam) litigation as well as others). We recognize that such assistance may
require you to invest substantial time and divert your attention away from other
matters. Accordingly, we are proposing to enter into this Litigation Support
Consulting Agreement under which the Company would agree to compensate you for
your time and effort in exchange for your willingness to make yourself available
and provide assistance to Hill-Rom and its legal team(s). Please note that you
will not be compensated for any time spent actually testifying but we will
compensate you for all time spent preparing for such testimony or otherwise
serving in any capacity other than as an actual deponent or witness.
Specifically, in addition to the obligations set forth in your Separation &
Release Agreement (i.e. Paragraph No. 25), we propose the following:

CONSULTANT FEES

We will pay you a fixed monthly retainer for a period of twelve (12) months in
the amount of Eight Thousand, Three Hundred, Thirty-three Dollars and
Thirty-Three Cents ($8,333.33) for all time spent on such matters subject to a
maximum of Two Hundred and Fifty (250) hours (the "hourly cap") for such period.
Once the hourly cap is reached, we would agree to pay you the balance of any
unpaid monthly retainer within fourteen (14) days. Upon expiration of the twelve
(12) month period or exhaustion of the hourly cap, the Company will have the
option to continue to engage your services at the fixed hourly rate of Five
Hundred Dollars and No Cents ($500.00) for the duration of any litigation for
which your services are needed, subject to a per diem rate of Three Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars and No Cents ($3,500.00) per day. In addition to the
foregoing retainer and hourly fee, we will reimburse you for all reasonable
expenses incurred at the Company's request provided such expenses have been
approved in advance.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

As one of our outside litigation consultants, you will be expected to provide
assistance to the Company in the following areas:

     -    Identifying relevant documents, personnel and potential witnesses;

     -    Assisting in defending against any class certification(s);

     -    Helping craft discovery responses;

     -    Participating in preparing yourself (and others) for deposition;

     -    Assisting the Company to prepare for various pre-trial matters;

     -    Assisting the Company to prepare for trial;

     -    Formulating settlement strategies;

     -    Formulating litigation defense strategies;

     -    Formulating arguments and strategies for possible appeals; and

     -    Performing any other duties requested which may assist the Company in
          its litigation efforts.

<PAGE>

PAYMENT TERMS

The above monthly retainer shall be paid on the 15th of each month. Because of
the constraints imposed by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, which added
Section 409A to the Internal Revenue Code, and absent clear regulations
concerning the payment of such consulting fees, any amounts due prior to
February 1,2006 (excluding expenses) will be delayed and paid as a lump sum on
that date. You will be required to submit appropriate documentation of all
expenses incurred, which shall be reimbursed within thirty (30) days following
review and approval. Assuming this arrangement is converted from a monthly
retainer to hourly rate, we will ask you to submit detailed invoices to the
Company on the 5th of every month for all time worked along with any expenses
incurred during the preceding month. The Company agrees to pay such invoices
within thirty (30) days following receipt of a correct and undisputed invoice.
The Company will issue you a Form 1099 for any compensation paid to you under
this arrangement.

TERM

The term of this Agreement shall commence on September 1, 2005 and shall run
until the conclusion of the above-listed legal matters, at which time this
Agreement will be deemed to have expired by its own terms. Upon termination, all
obligations shall cease other than the payment of any accrued consulting fees or
expenses. The obligation to maintain information shared as confidential,
however, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall continue
until such information is no longer considered confidential or has been made
public through no fault of your own.

OTHER CONDITIONS

     -    You agree to make yourself reasonably available to meet and confer
          with the Company, its employees, attorneys and designated
          representatives at such times and places as required to adequately
          perform the above services. Subject to business and litigation needs,
          we will attempt to respect your time and schedule.

     -    You agree that such services shall be performed as an independent
          contractor, not as an employee of Hillenbrand Industries or Hill-Rom,
          and shall be performed in an ethical and professional manner
          consistent with the highest of expectations.

     -    You agree to maintain any applicable privileges (including
          attorney-client privilege) and keep all information disclosed to you
          as strictly confidential consistent with the terms of your Separation
          and Release Agreement;

     -    You agree not to disclose or use any information provided to you for
          any purpose other than to further the Company's interests unless
          expressly authorized by the Company in writing or required by law
          after having provided timely notice thereof to the Company.

     -    You agree that you will be responsible for any and all taxes due on
          account of any payments received under the terms of this Agreement. We
          will issue you a Form 1099 for all compensation provided to you during
          the relevant calendar year.

     -    You agree that, if called to testify (for deposition or trial), you
          will do so truthfully.

     -    The rights and obligations set forth above shall be independent of
          (and shall not replace) any rights or obligations either you or the
          Company may have in any other written agreement, specifically
          including those set forth in either your Employment Agreement or
          Separation and Release Agreement.

      to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

      at the Property and Company levels;

                  (xxxv) undertake communications with Stockholders in
      accordance with applicable law and the Charter, provided, however, that
      Affiliates of the Advisor have no obligations to the Company other than as
      expressly stated herein, and the Advisor and its Affiliates have no
      obligations to present to the Company any specific investment opportunity
      except as set forth in the Charter and described in the Prospectus;

                  (xxxvi) manage communications with stockholders, including
      answering phone calls, preparing and sending written and electronic
      reports and other communications;

                  (xxxvii) establish technology infrastructure to assist in

<PAGE>

                  (xxxix) manage and coordinate with the transfer agent the
      periodic dividend process and the payments to Stockholders;

                  (xl) investigate, select, and, on behalf of the Company,
      engage and conduct business with such Persons as the Advisor deems
      necessary to the proper performance of its obligations hereunder,
      including but not limited to consultants, accountants, lenders, technical
      advisors, attorneys, brokers, underwriters, corporate fiduciaries, escrow
      agents, depositaries, custodians, agents for collection, insurers,
      insurance agents, banks, builders, developers, construction companies,
      property owners, mortgagors, and any and all agents for any of the
      foregoing, including Affiliates of the Advisor, and Persons acting in any
      other capacity deemed by the Advisor necessary or desirable for the
      performance of any of the foregoing services, including but not limited to
      entering into contracts in the name of the Company with any of the
      foregoing; and

                  (xli) do all things necessary to assure its ability to render
      the services described in this Agreement.

The Advisor has a fiduciary responsibility to the Company and to the
Stockholders in carrying out its duties under this Agreement. In providing
advice and services hereunder, the Advisor shall not (i) engage in any activity
which would require it to be registered as an "Investment Advisor," as that term
is defined in the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or in any state securities law
or (ii) cause the Company to make such investments as would cause the Company to
become an "Investment Company," as that term is defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940.

          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 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 and to the
    auditors of the Company.

          6. 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. 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 United States generally accepted accounting principles
    ("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. 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 which by their
    nature require a deviation from GAAP. The Advisor shall maintain necessary
    liaison with the Company's independent accountants and shall provide such
    accountants with such reports and other information as the Company shall
    request. The Advisor shall at all reasonable times have access to the books
    and records of the Company.

          7. 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, (c) violate any law,
    rule, regulation or statement of policy of any governmental body or agency
    having jurisdiction over the Company, its Stock or its other Securities, or
    (d) violate the Charter 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor, its directors,
    officers, employees and stockholders, and stockholders, directors and
    officers of the Advisor's Affiliates shall not be liable to the Company or
    to the Board or

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

    Stockholders for any act or omission by the Advisor, its directors,
    officers or employees, or stockholders, directors or officers of the
    Advisor's Affiliates except as provided in this Agreement.

          8. Relationship With Directors. Subject to Section 7 of this Agreement
    and to restrictions set forth in the Charter or deemed advisable with
    respect to the qualification of the Company as a REIT, directors, officers
    and employees of the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor or any corporate
    parents of an Affiliate, or directors, officers or stockholders of any
    director, officer or corporate parent of an Affiliate may serve as a
    Director and as officers of the Company, except that no officer or employee
    of the Advisor or its Affiliates who also is a Director or officer of the
    Company shall receive any compensation from the Company for serving as a
    Director or officer other than reasonable reimbursement for travel and
    related expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Directors. Directors
    who are not Independent Directors will be individuals nominated by the
    Advisor, provided that such director nominees are either directors of the
    Advisor or have been elected by the board of directors of the Advisor as
    executive officers of the Advisor.

          9. Fees.

            (a) Advisor Acquisition Fees. The Company will pay the Advisor, as
compensation for services rendered in connection with the investigation,
selection and acquisition (by purchase, investment or exchange) of Properties,
Advisor Acquisition Fees in an amount equal to 2.0% of Gross Proceeds, other
than Gross Proceeds from Stock purchased under the Reinvestment Plan, payable by
the Company upon the Company's receipt of Gross Proceeds; provided that upon
termination of this Agreement, the Advisor will be obligated to reimburse the
Company for any Advisor Acquisition Fee that has not been allocated to the
purchase price of Company Properties as provided for in Section 5.2 of the
Charter.

            (b) Asset Management Fee. Subject to the overall limitations
contained below in this Section 9(c), commencing on the date hereof, the Company
shall pay the Advisor for the asset management services included in the services
described in Section 4 a monthly fee (the "Asset Management Fee") in an amount
equal to one-twelfth of 1.0% of the Average Invested Assets, calculated on a
monthly basis as of the last day of each month. The Asset Management Fee shall
be reduced if the Independent Directors determine that compensation to be paid
to the Advisor is not reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of
services performed and the investment performance of the Company and that the
provisions of the Advisory Agreement are being carried out in accordance with
Section 4.2 of the Charter.

            (c) Property Management and Leasing Fees. If the Company retains the
Advisor or its Affiliates to manage or lease any of its Properties, the Company
will pay the Advisor or its Affiliates a market-based fee which is what other
management or leasing companies generally charge for the management or leasing
of similar properties, which may include reimbursement for the costs and
expenses the Advisor or its Affiliates incurs in managing or leasing the
Properties.

            (d) Disposition Fees. If the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a
substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the
Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors) in connection with
the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive
at closing a Disposition Fee equal to 3.0% of the sales price of such Property
or Properties. Any Disposition Fee payable under this section may be paid in
addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the
total real estate commissions (including such Disposition Fee) paid to all
Persons by the Company for each Property shall not exceed an amount equal to the
lesser of (i) 6.0% of the aggregate Contract Sales Price of each Property or
(ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for each Property. The Company will
pay the Disposition Fees for a property at the time the property is sold.

            (e) Subordinated Share of Net Sale Proceeds. The Subordinated Share
of Net Sale Proceeds shall be payable to the Advisor at the time or times that
the Company determines that the Subordinated Share of Net Sale Proceeds has been
earned by the Advisor, provided that no Subordinated Share of Net Sale Proceeds
will be paid if the Company has paid or is obligated to pay the Subordinated
Incentive Fee Due Upon Listing. In the case of multiple advisors, advisors and
Affiliates shall be allowed incentive fees in accordance with the foregoing
limitation, provided such fees are distributed by a proportional method
reasonably designed to reflect the value added to the Company's Assets by each
respective advisor or Affiliate.

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

            (f) Subordinated Incentive Fee Due Upon Listing. Upon Listing, and
as soon as practicable following the determination of Market Value, the Advisor
shall be entitled to the Subordinated Incentive Fee Upon Listing. The
Subordinated Incentive Fee Due Upon Listing shall be payable to the Advisor
during the thirty (30) day period following eighteen (18) months after Listing.
The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Stock, a
promissory note or any combination of the foregoing, as determined by the Board
of Directors. In the event the Subordinated Incentive Fee Due Upon Listing is
paid to the Advisor following Listing, the Advisor will not be entitled to
receive any payments of Subordinated Performance Fee Upon Termination or
Subordinated Share of Net Sale Proceeds following receipt of the Subordinated
Incentive Fee Due Upon Listing.

            (g) 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. A majority of the Independent Directors
must approve the new fee structure negotiated with the Advisor. In negotiating a
new fee structure, the Independent Directors shall consider all of the factors
they deem relevant, including, but not limited to: (i) the amount of the
advisory fee in relation to the asset value, composition and profitability of
the Company's portfolio; (ii) the success of the Advisor in generating
opportunities that meet the investment objectives of the Company; (iii) the
rates charged to other REITs and to investors other than REITs by advisors
performing the same or similar services; (iv) additional revenues realized by
the Advisor and its Affiliates through their relationship with the Company,
including loan administration, underwriting or broker commissions, servicing,
engineering, inspection and other fees, whether paid by the REIT or by others
with whom the REIT does business; (v) the quality and extent of service and
advice furnished by the Advisor; (vi) the performance of the investment
portfolio of the REIT, including income, conversion or appreciation of capital,
and number and frequency of problem investments; and (vii) the quality of the
Property portfolio of the Company in relationship to the investments generated
by the Advisor for its own account. The new fee structure can be no more
favorable to the Advisor than the current fee structure.

          10. Expenses.

            (a) Reimbursable Expenses. In addition to the compensation paid to
the Advisor pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or
reimburse the Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor
(to the extent not reimbursable by another party, such as the Dealer Manager) in
connection with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this
Agreement, including, but not limited to:

                  (i) the 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 to the extent (i)
      Capped O&O Expenses borne by the Company exceed 3.5% of the Gross Proceeds
      raised in a completed Offering and (ii) Organization and Offering Expenses
      borne by the Company (including selling commissions, dealer manager fees
      and non-accountable due diligence expense allowance but not including
      Acquisition Fees or Acquisition Expenses) exceed 13.5% of the Gross
      Proceeds raised in a completed Offering;

                  (ii) Subject to the limitation set forth below, Acquisition
      Expenses incurred by the Advisor or its Affiliates;

                  (iii) Subject to the limitation set forth below, Acquisition
      Fees and Acquisition Expenses payable to unaffiliated Persons incurred in
      connection with the selection and acquisition of Properties;

                  (iv) the actual out-of-pocket cost of goods and services used
      by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor
      including brokerage and other fees paid in connection with the purchase,
      operation and sale of Assets;

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

                  (vi) taxes and assessments on income or Property and taxes as
      an expense of doing business and any taxes otherwise imposed on the
      Company, its business or income;

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

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

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

                  (ix) all expenses in connection with payments to Directors and
      meetings of the Directors and Stockholders;

                  (x) expenses associated with Listing or with the issuance and
      distribution of Securities other than the Stock issued in the Initial
      Public Offering, such as selling commissions and fees, advertising
      expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, listing and registration fees;

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

                  (xii) expenses of organizing, converting, modifying, merging,
      liquidating or dissolving the Company or of amending the Charter or the
      Bylaws;

                  (xiii) 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;

                  (xiv) administrative service expenses, including all direct
      and indirect costs and expenses incurred by Advisor in fulfilling its
      duties hereunder and including personnel costs; provided, however, that no
      reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel to the extent that such
      personnel perform services in transactions for which the Advisor receives
      the Acquisition Fee or Disposition Fee. Such direct and indirect costs and
      expenses may include reasonable wages and salaries and other
      employee-related expenses of all employees of Advisor who are engaged in
      the management, administration, operations, and marketing of the Company,
      including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and
      legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses which are directly related
      to their services provided hereunder;

                  (xv) audit, accounting and legal fees, and other fees for
      professional services relating to the operations of the Company and all
      such fees incurred at the request, or on behalf of, the Independent
      Directors or any committee of the Board of Directors;

                  (xvi) out-of-pocket expenses of maintaining communications
      with Shareholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and
      mailing annual reports and other Shareholder reports, proxy statements and
      other reports required by governmental entities;

                  (xvii) out-of-pocket costs for the Company to comply with all
      applicable laws, regulation and ordinances; and

                  (xviii) all other out-of-pocket costs necessary for the
      operation of the Company and its Assets incurred by the Advisor in
      performing its duties hereunder.

The Company shall also reimburse the Advisor or Affiliates of the Advisor for
all direct and indirect costs and expenses incurred on behalf of the Company
prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event the Company does not
raise $1,000,000 in its Initial Public Offering, the Advisor will not be
reimbursed for Organizational and Offering Expenses.

      The total of all Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses paid by the
Company in connection with the purchase of a Property by the Company shall be
reasonable, and shall in no event exceed an amount equal to 6% of the Contract
Purchase Price, or in the case of a mortgage loan, 6% of the funds advanced;
provided, however, that a

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

majority of the Directors (including the 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.

            (b) Other Services. Should the Directors request that the Advisor or
any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other
than set forth in Section 4, such services shall be separately compensated at
such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and a majority of
the Independent Directors, subject to the limitations contained in the Charter,
and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

            (c) Timing of and Limitations on Reimbursements.

                  (i) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company
      and payable pursuant to this Section 10 shall be reimbursed no less
      frequently than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall prepare a
      statement documenting the expenses of the Company during each quarter, and
      shall deliver such statement to the Company within 45 days after the end
      of each quarter. Subject to the Excess Expense Guidelines, the Company may
      advance funds to the Advisor for expenses the Advisor anticipates will be
      incurred by the Advisor within the current month and any such advances
      shall be deducted from the amounts reimbursed by the Company to the
      Advisor.

                  (ii) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 10 to the
      contrary, the expenses enumerated in this Section 10 shall not become
      reimbursable to the Advisor unless and until the Company has raised $1
      million in the Initial Public Offering.

                  (iii) The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end
      of any fiscal quarter Operating Expenses that, in the four consecutive
      fiscal quarters then ended (the "Expense Year") exceed (the "Excess
      Amount") the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of NASAA Net
      Income (the "Excess Expense Guidelines") for such year unless a majority
      of the Independent Directors determines that such excess was justified,
      based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient. If a
      majority of the Independent Directors does not approve such excess as
      being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal
      quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If a majority of the Independent
      Directors determines such excess was justified, then within 60 days after
      the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total reimbursed
      Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed the Excess Expense
      Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of the a majority of the
      Independent Directors, shall send to the stockholders a written disclosure
      of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the a majority
      of the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess
      expenses were justified. The Company will ensure that such determination
      will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of
      Directors. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be
      determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
      applied on a consistent basis.

          11. Fidelity Bond. The Advisor shall endeavor to maintain a fidelity
    bond for the benefit of the Company which bond shall insure the Company from
    losses of up to $1,000,000 per occurrence and shall be of the type
    customarily purchased by entities performing services similar to those
    provided to the Company by the Advisor.

            12. Other Activities of the Advisor.

            (a) General. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor from
engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of
advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other
programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor
shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer,
employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other
business or to render services of any kind to any other partnership,
corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor may, with
respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render
advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor
shall report to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance,
existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor's obligations
to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership,
corporation, firm, individual, trust or association.

            (b) Policy with Respect to Allocation of Investment Opportunities.
Before the Advisor presents an investment opportunity that would in its judgment
be suitable for the Company to another Advisor-sponsored program, the Advisor
shall determine in its sole discretion that the investment opportunity is more
suitable for such other program than for the Company based on factors such as
the following: as the investment objectives and criteria of each program, the
cash requirements and anticipated cash flow of each entity, the size of the
investment opportunity, the effect of the acquisition both on diversification of
each entity's investments, the income tax consequences of the purchase on each
entity, the policies of each program relating to leverage, the amount of funds
available to each program, and the length of time such funds have been available
for investment. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available
that is, in the sole discretion of the Advisor, equally suitable for both the
Company and another Advisor-sponsored program, then the Advisor may offer the
other program the investment opportunity if it has had the longest period of
time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity. The Advisor will use
its reasonable efforts to fairly allocate investment opportunities in accordance
with such allocation method and will promptly disclose any material deviation
from such policy or the establishment of a new policy, which shall be allowed
provided (1) the Board is provided with notice of such policy at least 60 days
prior to such policy becoming effective and (2) such policy provides for the
reasonable allocation of investment opportunities among such programs. The
Advisor shall provide the Independent Directors with any information reasonably
requested so that the Independent Directors can insure that the allocation of
investment opportunities is applied fairly. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
prevent the Advisor or an Affiliate from pursuing an investment opportunity
directly rather than offering it to the Company or another Advisor-sponsored
program so long as the Advisor is fulfilling its obligation to present a
continuing and suitable investment program to the Company which is consistent
with the investment policies and objectives of the Company. If a subsequent
development, such as a delay in the closing of a property or a delay in the
construction of a property, causes any such investment, in the opinion of the
Board of Directors and the Advisor, to be more appropriate for an entity other
than the entity which committed to make the investment, however, the Advisor has
the right to agree that the other entity affiliated with the Advisors or its
Affiliates may make the investment.

          13. Relationship of Advisor and Company. The Company and the Advisor
    are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this
    Agreement shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers
    or impose any liability as such on either of them.

          14. Representations and Warranties.

            (a) Of the Company. To induce the Advisor to enter into this
Agreement, the Company hereby represents and warrants that:

                  (i) The Company is a corporation, duly organized, validly
      existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland with
      all requisite corporate power and authority and all material licenses,
      permits and authorizations necessary to carry out the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement.

                  (ii) The Company's execution, delivery and performance of this
      Agreement has been duly authorized by the Board of Directors including a
      majority of all Independent Directors of the Company. This Agreement
      constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable
      against the Company in accordance with its terms. The Company's execution
      and delivery of this Agreement and its fulfillment of and compliance with
      the respective terms hereof do not and will not (i) conflict with or
      result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, (ii)
      constitute a default under, (iii) result in the creation of any lien,
      security interest, charge or encumbrance upon the assets of the Company
      pursuant to, (iv) give any third party the right to modify, terminate or
      accelerate any obligation under, (v) result in a violation of or (vi)
      require any authorization, consent, approval, exception or other action by
      or notice to any court or administrative or governmental body pursuant to,
      the Charter or Bylaws or any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the

      perform any of its obligations under this Agreement.

            (b) Of the Advisor. To induce the Company to enter into this
Agreement, the Advisor represents and warrants that :

                  (i) The Advisor is a limited liability company, duly
      organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
      State of California with all requisite corporate power and authority and

      Agreement has been duly authorized. This Agreement constitutes a valid and
      binding obligation of the Advisor, enforceable against the Advisor in
      accordance with its terms. The Advisor's execution and delivery of this

      hereof do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of the

      the Advisor is subject, or any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
      decree by which the Advisor is bound, in any such case in a manner that
      would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Advisor to
      perform any of its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (iii) The Advisor has received copies of the Charter, the
      Bylaws, and the Registration Statement and of the Operating Partnership's
      limited partnership agreement and is familiar with the terms thereof,
      including without limitation the investment limitations included therein.
      The Advisor warrants that it will use reasonable care to avoid any act or
      omission that would conflict with the terms of the Charter, the Bylaws,
      the Registration Statement, or the Operating Partnership's limited
      partnership agreement in the absence of the express direction of a
      majority of the Independent Directors.

          15. Term; Termination of Agreement. Subject to Section 16 hereof, this
    Agreement shall continue in force until the first anniversary of the
    effective date hereof. Thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed for an
    unlimited number of successive one-year terms upon mutual consent of the
    parties. The Company, acting through the Board, will 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.

          16. Termination

the Advisor or its managing member, as the case may be).

            (b) Termination by the Advisor. This Agreement may be terminated
immediately by the Advisor in the event of (i) the bankruptcy of the Company or
commencement of any bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings of the Company,

      fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement; and

                  (ii) the Subordinated Performance Fee Due Upon Termination,
      provided that no Subordinated Performance Fee Due Upon Termination will be
      paid if the Company has paid or is obligated to pay the Subordinated
      Incentive Fee,

            (b) In the event this Agreement expires without the consent of the
Advisor, or is terminated for any reason other than by the Advisor pursuant to
Section 16(a) or Section 16(b), the Company shall, at the election of the
Advisor or any of its Affiliates and at any time (and from time to time) after
the effective date of such expiration or termination, purchase all or a portion
of the OP Units held by the Advisor and its Affiliates subject to Board approval
and applicable law. The purchase price shall be paid in cash or, at the election
of the seller, Stock, and shall be payable within 120 days after the Advisor or
its Affiliates (as applicable) gives the Company written notice of its desire to
sell all or a portion of the OP Units held by such Person to the Company. The
Company agrees to keep a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of
Stock available for issuance pursuant to this Section 17(b) and shall issue
shares of Stock as may be required hereunder. The purchase price of the OP Units
sold to the Company pursuant to this Section 17(b) shall be (i) in the event the
seller elects to receive cash, the Cash Amount the seller would receive under a
redemption of such interests under Section 9.7 of the Operating Partnership
Agreement assuming the Company paid cash for such redemption, or (ii) in the
event the seller elects to receive Stock, the REIT Stock Amount the seller would
receive under a redemption of such interests under Section 9.7 of the Operating
Partnership Agreement assuming the Company paid Stock for such redemption.

            (c) The Advisor shall promptly upon termination:

                  (i) pay over to the Company all money collected and held for
      the account of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, after deducting any
      accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which it is
      then entitled;

                  (ii) deliver to the Board a full accounting, including a
      statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all
      money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last
      accounting furnished to the Board;

                  (iii) deliver to the Board all assets, including Properties,
      and documents of the Company then in the custody of the Advisor; and

                  (iv) cooperate with the Company to provide an orderly
      management transition.

          18. Assignment to an Affiliate. This Agreement may be assigned by the
    Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of 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
    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 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.

          19. Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and
    hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective
    officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims,
    damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and
    related expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent such
    liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully
    reimbursed by insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of
    the State of Maryland and only if all of the following conditions are met:

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

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

            (c) such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or
misconduct by the Advisor or its Affiliates.

            (d) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is
recoverable only out of the Company's Net Asset Value and not from its
Stockholders.

            (e) with respect to losses, liabilities or expenses arising from
or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws, one or more
of the following conditions are met:

                (1) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits
of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular
indemnitee.

                (2) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the
merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee.

                (3) 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.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor shall not be entitled to
indemnification or be held harmless

                                      -20-

<PAGE>

    pursuant to this Section 19 for any activity which the Advisor shall be
    required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to Section 20.
    Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only if the standards for
    indemnification set forth above in this Section 19 have been met and then
    only out of the net assets of the Company, including insurance proceeds, and
    not from Stockholders.

          20. Indemnification by Advisor. The Advisor shall indemnify and hold
    harmless the Company from contract or other liability, claims, damages,
    taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys' fees, to the
    extent that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related
    expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of
    the Advisor's bad faith, fraud, willful misfeasance, negligence, misconduct,
    or reckless disregard of its duties, but Advisor shall not be held
    responsible for any action of the Directors in declining to follow any
    advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.

          21. Advisor's Liability.

            (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, in no
event shall the Company make any claim against the Advisor, or its Affiliates,
on account of any good faith interpretation by Advisor of the provisions of this
Agreement (even if such interpretation is later determined to be a breach of
this Agreement) or any alleged errors in judgment made in good faith and in
accordance with this Agreement in connection with the operations of the Company
hereunder by the Advisor or the performance of any advisory or technical
services provided by or arranged by the Advisor. The provisions of this Section
21(a) shall not be deemed to release the Advisor from liability for its
negligence, misconduct or reckless disregard of its duties.

            (b) The Company shall not object to any expenditures made by the
Advisor in good faith in the course of its performance of its obligations under
this Agreement or in settlement of any claim arising out of the operation of the
Company unless such expenditure is specifically prohibited by this Agreement or
the Charter. The provisions of this Section 21(b) shall not be deemed to release
the Advisor from liability for its negligence, misconduct or reckless disregard
of its duties.

            (c) In no event will either party be liable for damages based on
loss of income, profit or savings or indirect, incidental, consequential,
exemplary, punitive or special damages of the other party or person, including
third parties, even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such
damages in advance, and all such damages are expressly disclaimed. In no event
will the Advisor's aggregate liability under this Agreement ever exceed the
total amount of fees it actually receives from the Company pursuant to Article
9.

          22. 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
    Charter, the Bylaws, or accepted by the party to whom it is given, and shall
    be given by being delivered by hand or by overnight mail or other overnight
    delivery service to the addresses set forth herein:

    and severable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or

    part.

    and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

          26. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and
    understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
    hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements,
    understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or

    and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. This
    Agreement may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement in
    writing.

          27. Indulgences, Not Waivers. Neither the failure nor any delay on the
    part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this

    asserted to have granted such waiver.

    subparagraphs contained in this Agreement are for convenience only, and they
    neither form a part of this Agreement nor are they to be used in the
    construction or interpretation hereof.

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

          31. Initial Investment. Terry G. Roussel, an Affiliate of the Advisor,
    has purchased 125 shares of Common Stock for $1,000. The Advisor has
    purchased OP Units for $200,000. The advisor is prohibited from exchanging
    the OP Units purchased by it on July 15, 2005 for $200,000 cash at any time
    prior to July 15, 2007. The Advisor may not sell any of the OP Units (or the
    Common Stock received in exchange for the OP Units, if any) while the
    Advisor acts in such advisory capacity to the Company, provided, that such
    Common Stock may be transferred to Affiliates of the Advisor. Affiliates of
    the Advisor may not sell any of the OP Units (or the Common Stock received
    in exchange for the OP Units, if any) while the Advisor acts in such
    advisory capacity to the Company, provided, that such OP Units (or the
    Common Stock received in exchange for the OP Units, if any) may be
    transferred to the Advisor or other Affiliates of the Advisor. The
    restrictions included above shall not apply to any other Securities acquired
    by the Advisor or its Affiliates. With respect to any Securities owned by
    the Advisor, the Directors, or any of their Affiliates, neither the Advisor,
    nor the Directors, nor any of their Affiliates may vote or consent on
    matters submitted to the Stockholders regarding the removal of the Advisor,
    Directors or any of their Affiliates or any transaction between the Company
    and any of them. In determining the requisite percentage in interest of
    Securities necessary to approve a matter on which the Advisor, Directors and
    any of their Affiliates may not vote or consent, any Securities owned by any
    of them shall not be included.

          32. Name. Cornerstone Ventures, Inc. has a proprietary interest in the
    name "Cornerstone." Cornerstone Ventures, Inc. is an Affiliate of the
    Advisor. Cornerstone Ventures, Inc. hereby grants to the Company a
    non-transferable, non-assignable, non-exclusive royalty-free right and
    license to use the name "Cornerstone " during the term of this Agreement.
    Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company
    ceases to retain an Affiliate of Cornerstone Ventures, Inc. to perform the
    services of Advisor, the Company and the Operating Partnership will,
    promptly after receipt of written request from Cornerstone Ventures, Inc.,
    cease to conduct business under or use the name "Cornerstone" or any
    derivative thereof and the

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

    Company and the Operating Partnership shall change the name of the Company
    and the Operating Partnership to a name that does not contain the name
    "Cornerstone" 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 Affiliate thereof.
    At such time, the Company will also make any changes to any trademarks,
    service marks or other marks necessary to remove any references to the word
    "Cornerstone." 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 "Cornerstone" as a part of their name, all
    without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto)
    by the Company, the Board or the Operating Partnership.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Advisory
Agreement as of the date and year first above written.
