Advisor a monthly Asset Management Fee equal to 0.0417%, which is one twelfth of 0.50%, of the
Average Invested Assets, plus costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor in providing asset
management services.

     (b) Acquisition and Advisory Fees. The Company shall pay the Advisor, or an Affiliate
of the Advisor, a fee in the amount of 2.0% of the Contract Purchase Price of each Asset as
Acquisition and Advisory Fees. The total of all Acquisition Fees and any Acquisition Expenses
shall be limited in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation. Acquisition and Advisory Fees
shall be paid as follows: (1) for real property (including properties where
development/redevelopment is expected), at the time of acquisition, (2) for
development/redevelopment projects (other than the initial acquisition of the real property), at
the time a final budget is approved, and (3) for loans and similar assets (including without
limitation mezzanine loans), quarterly based on the value of loans made or acquired. In the case
of a development/redevelopment project subject to clause (2) above, upon completion of the
development/redevelopment project, the Advisor shall determine the actual amounts paid. To the
extent the amounts actually paid vary from the budgeted amounts on which the Acquisition and
Advisory Fee was initially based, the Advisor will pay or invoice the Company for 2.0% of the
budget variance such that the Acquisition and Advisory Fee is ultimately 2.0% of amounts expended
on such development/redevelopment project. Any portion of the Acquisition and Advisory Fee may be
deferred and paid in a subsequent year upon the mutual agreement of the parties hereto.

     (c) Real Estate Commission. If the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor provides a
substantial amount of the services (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors) in
connection with the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive a
Real Estate Commission up to one-half of the brokerage commission paid, but in no event an amount
to exceed 3% of the Contact Sales Price of such Property or Properties; provided, however, that no
Real Estate Commissions shall be payable to the Advisor for the Sale of Properties if such Sale
involves the Company selling all or substantially all of its Properties in one or more transactions
designed to effectuate a business combination transaction (as opposed to a Company liquidation, in
which case the Real Estate Commissions would be payable if the Advisor or an Affiliate of the
Advisor provides a substantial amount of services as provided above). The Real Estate Commission
may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total
real estate commissions paid to all Persons by the Company (including the Real Estate Commission)
shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Competitive Real Estate Commission or
(ii) 6.0% of the Contract Sales Price of a Property.

     (d) Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds. The Subordinated Share of Net Sales
Proceeds shall be payable to the Advisor in an amount equal to 15.0% of Net Sales Proceeds
remaining

-11-

 

after the Stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of the Stockholders’ 8.0%
Return and 100% of Invested Capital. 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. In no event will the
Company pay a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds, including any interest payable in
connection with any promissory note issued by the Company in payment of the Subordinated Share of
Net Sales Proceeds, in excess of the amount that would be presumptively reasonable under Section
9.7 of the Articles of Incorporation.

     (e) Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor shall be entitled
to the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee in an amount equal to 15.0% of the amount by which (i)
the Market Value of the Company’s outstanding Shares plus distributions paid by the Company prior
to Listing, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital and (B) the total Distributions
required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders’ 8.0% Return from
inception through the date that 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.
If the Company pays such fee with a promissory note, payment in full shall be made from the Net
Sales Proceeds of the first Sale completed by the Company after Listing, and interest will accrue
at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Board from and after the date of Listing. If the Net
Sales Proceeds from the first Sale after Listing are insufficient to pay the promissory note in
full, including accrued interest, then the promissory note shall be paid in part with such Net
Sales Proceeds, and in part from the Net Sales Proceeds from the next successive Sales until the
amount owing pursuant to such promissory note is paid in full. If the promissory note has not been
paid in full within five years from the date of Listing, then the Advisor, or its successors or
assigns, may elect to convert the unpaid balance, including accrued but unpaid interest, into
Shares at a price per Share equal to the average closing price of the Shares over the ten trading
days immediately preceding the date of such election. If the Shares are no longer Listed at such
time as the promissory note becomes convertible into Shares as provided by this paragraph, then the
price per Share, for purposes of conversion, shall equal the fair market value for the Shares as
determined by the Board based upon the Appraised Value of the Assets as of the date of election.

     (f) 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.

     (g) Financing Coordination Fee. In the event of the origination or refinancing of any
debt financing obtained by the Company, including the assumption (directly or indirectly) of
existing debt, that is used to acquire properties, to make other permitted investments or is
assumed (directly or indirectly) in connection with the acquisition of properties, and if the
Advisor provides a substantial amount of services, as determined by the Independent Directors in
connection therewith, the Company will pay to the Advisor a Financing Coordination Fee equal to 1%
of the amount available to the Company and/or outstanding under such financing; provided, however,
that the Advisor shall not be entitled to a Financing Coordination Fee in connection with the
refinancing of any loan secured by any particular property that was previously subject to a
refinancing in which the Advisor received a Financing Coordination Fee. Financing Coordination
Fees payable from loan proceeds from permanent financing will be paid to the Advisor as the Company
acquires such permanent financing, however, no Financing Coordination Fees will be paid from loan
proceeds from any line of credit unless all net offering proceeds received as of the date proceeds
from the line of credit are drawn for the purpose of acquiring Properties or other permitted
investments (other than reasonable working capital reserves) have been invested by the Company. In
addition, with respect to any revolving line of credit, our Advisor will receive a Financing
Coordination Fee only in connection with amounts being drawn for the first time and not upon any
re-drawing of amounts that previously were repaid by us.

-12-

 

     (h) Development Fee. If the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor provides
development/ redevelopment related services, the Company shall pay the Advisor or the Affiliate of
the Advisor, as the case may be, a Development Fee that is usual and customary for comparable
services rendered for similar projects in the geographic market where services are provided;
provided, however, that the Company shall not pay a Development Fee to the Advisor or an Affiliate
of the Advisor if the Advisor elects to receive an Acquisition and Advisory Fee in connection with
the respective development/redevelopment project.

3.02 Expenses.

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

(i) Organization and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within 60 days after
the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse
the Company for any Organization and Offering Expenses reimbursed by the Company to
the Advisor to the extent that such reimbursements exceed 1.5% of the Gross Proceeds
raised in the completed Offering. The Advisor shall be responsible for the payment
of Organization and Offering Expenses in excess of 1.5% of the Gross Proceeds;

(ii) Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition
of Assets in an amount estimated to be up to 0.5% of the Contract Purchase Price;

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

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

(v) taxes and assessments on income or property and taxes as an expense of doing
business;

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

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

(viii) all expenses in connection with payments to the Board for attendance at
meetings of the Board and Stockholders;

(ix) expenses associated with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of
Shares and other securities of the Company, such as Selling Commissions and fees,
advertising expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, and Listing and registration
fees;

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

-13-

 

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

(xii) expenses of any third party transfer agent for the Shares and of maintaining
communications with Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and
mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other
reports required by governmental entities;

(xiii) administrative service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by
Advisor in fulfilling its duties hereunder. Such costs and expenses may include
reasonable wages and salaries and other employee-related expenses of all employees
of Advisor who are engage 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; and

(xiv) audit, accounting and legal fees.

     No reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel of the Advisor or its Affiliates to the
extent that such personnel perform services in connection with services for which the Advisor
receives the Acquisition and Advisory Fee or the Real Estate Commission.

     (b) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and payable pursuant to this
Section 3.02 shall be reimbursed no less than quarterly to the Advisor within 60 days after the end
of each quarter. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company
during each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company within 45 days after the end
of each quarter.

3.03 Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or
employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Section 2.02, such
services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the
Advisor and the Board, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and
shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

3.04 Reimbursement to the Advisor. The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor, at the end
of any fiscal quarter, for any Operating Expenses to the extent that, in the four consecutive
fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) the Operating Expenses exceed (the “Excess Amount”)
the greater of (i) 2% of Average Invested Assets or (ii) 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25%
Guidelines”) for that period of four consecutive quarters unless the Independent Directors
determine that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which the
Independent Directors deem sufficient. If the Independent Directors do 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 Independent Directors determine 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
Independent Directors, shall cause such fact to be disclosed in the next quarterly report of the
Company or in a separate writing and sent to the stockholders, together with an explanation of the
factors the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were
justified. The Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the
meetings of the Board. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

ARTICLE IV

TERM AND TERMINATION

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

4.02 Termination. This Agreement will automatically terminate upon Listing. This
Agreement also may be terminated at the option of either party (i) immediately upon a Change of
Control or (ii) upon 60 days written notice without cause or penalty (in either case, if
termination is by the Company, then such termination shall be upon the approval of a majority of
the Independent Directors). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement which
provide for payment to the Advisor of expenses, fees or other compensation following the date of
termination (i.e., Sections 3.01(e) and 4.03) shall continue in full force and effect until all
amounts payable thereunder to the Advisor are paid in full. The provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06
and 4.03 through 6.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.03 Payments to and Duties of Advisor upon Termination.

     (a) After the Termination Date, the Advisor shall not be entitled to compensation for further
services hereunder except it shall be entitled to and receive from the Company within 30 days after
the effective date of such termination all unpaid reimbursements of expenses, subject to the
provisions of Section 3.04 hereof, and all contingent liabilities related to fees payable to the
Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement, provided that the Subordinated Incentive Listing
Fee, if any, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01(e).

     (b) Upon termination, unless such termination is by the Company because of a material breach
of this Agreement by the Advisor or occurs upon a Change of Control, the Advisor shall be entitled
to receive a payment of the Performance Fee equal to 15.0% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the
Appraised Value of the Assets on the Termination Date, less the amount of all indebtedness secured
by the Assets, plus the total Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company’s inception
through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount equal to the
Stockholders’ 8.0% Return from inception through the Termination Date. The Company shall pay such
Performance Fee, with interest, at such time as the Company completes the first Sale after the
Termination Date. Payment shall be made from the Net Sales Proceeds of such Sale. Interest will
accrue beginning on the Termination Date at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Board on the
Termination Date. 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. If the Net Sales Proceeds from the first
Sale after the Termination Date are insufficient to pay the Performance Fee in full, plus accrued
interest, then the Performance Fee shall be paid in part with such Net Sales Proceeds, and in part
from the Net Sales Proceeds from the next successive Sales until the Performance Fee is paid in
full, with interest. If the Performance Fee has not been paid in full within five years from the
Termination Date, then the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of
the fee, including accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares at a price per Share equal to the
average closing price of the Shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of
such election if the Shares are Listed at such time. If the Shares are not Listed at such time,
the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the fee, including
accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares at a price per Share equal to the fair market value for
the Shares as determined by the Board based upon the Appraised Value of the Assets on the date of
election.

-15-

 

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if termination occurs upon a Change of Control, the Advisor
shall be entitled to payment of the Performance Fee equal to 15.0% of the amount, if any, by which
(i) the value of the Assets on the Termination Date as determined in good faith by the Board,
including a majority of the Independent Directors, based upon such factors as the consideration
paid in connection with the Change of Control and the most recent Appraised Value, less the amount
of all indebtedness secured by the Assets, plus the total Distributions paid to Stockholders from
the Company’s inception through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount
equal to the Stockholders’ 8.0% Return from inception through the Termination Date. No deferral of
payment of the Performance Fee may be made under this Section 4.03(c).

     (d) In the event that the Advisor disagrees with the valuation of Shares pursuant to Section
4.03(b) where the Shares are not Listed for purposes of determining the number of Shares to be
issued to the Advisor following the Advisor’s election to convert the balance of the Performance
Fee owed to the Advisor, then the fair market value of such Shares shall be determined by an
Independent Appraiser of equity value selected by the Advisor.

     (e) Notwithstanding sections 4.03 (b) and (c), in the event the Subordinated Incentive Listing
Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no Performance Fee will be paid to the Advisor.

     (f) The Advisor shall promptly upon termination:

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

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

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

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

INDEMNIFICATION

5.01 (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including
their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages
or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related

the State of Maryland, the Articles of Incorporation and the NASAA Guidelines under the Articles of
Incorporation. The Company shall not indemnify or hold harmless the Advisor or its Affiliates,
including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, for any liability or loss
suffered by the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners
and employees, nor shall it provide that the Advisor or its Affiliates, including their respective
officers, directors, partners and employees, be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by
the Company, unless all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Advisor or its Affiliates,
including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, have determined, in

-16-

partners and employees, were acting on behalf of or performing services of the Company; (iii) such
liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the Advisor or its Affiliates,
including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees; and (iv) such
indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s net assets
and not from Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor and its Affiliates,
including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, shall not be indemnified by
the Company for any losses, liability or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of
federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are
met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged
securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (ii) such claims have been dismissed
with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee;
and (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a
particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should
be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position
of the Securities and Exchange Commission and of the published position of any state securities
regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification
for violations of securities laws.

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

     (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.01, the Advisor shall not be entitled to
indemnification or be held harmless pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any activity which the
Advisor shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to Section 5.02.

5.02 Indemnification by Advisor. The Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company
from contract or other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including
attorneys’ fees, to the extent that (i) such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and
related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and (ii) are incurred by reason of the
Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, misfeasance, misconduct, negligence or reckless disregard of its
duties. 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.
