the power to delegate all or any part of its rights and powers to manage and control the business and affairs of the Company to such officers, employees, Affiliates, agents and representatives of the Advisor or the Company or to the Sub-advisor as
it may deem appropriate. Any authority delegated by the Advisor to any other Person shall be subject to the limitations on the rights and powers of the Advisor specifically set forth in this Agreement or the Articles of Incorporation.

  

	4.2	Powers of the Advisor. Subject to the express limitations set forth in this Agreement, to the continuing and exclusive authority of the Board over the
supervision of the Company, and to the right of the Advisor to delegate its responsibilities pursuant to Section 4.1, the power to direct the management, operation and policies of the Company shall be vested in the Advisor, which shall
have the power by itself and shall be authorized and empowered on behalf and in the name of the Company to carry out any and all of the objectives and purposes of the Company and to perform all acts and enter into and perform all contracts and other
undertakings that it may in its sole discretion deem necessary, advisable or incidental thereto to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

approvals set forth in Article 3 hereof and this Article 4; provided, however, that such modification or revocation shall be effective upon receipt by the Advisor and shall not be applicable to investment transactions to
which the Advisor has committed the Company prior to the date of receipt by the Advisor of such notification. 

Article 5 

Bank Accounts 
 The Advisor may establish and maintain one or more bank accounts 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,

collections and payments to the Board and the independent auditors of the Company. 
 Article 6 

Records And Financial Statements 
 The Advisor, in the conduct of its responsibilities to the Company, shall maintain adequate and separate books and records for the Company’s operations in accordance with GAAP, which shall be

register as a broker-dealer with the SEC or any state, or (v) violate the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. In the event an action that would violate any of clauses (i) through (v) of the preceding sentence but such action has been
ordered by the Board, the Advisor shall notify 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. 

Article 8 

Fees 
  

	8.1	 Acquisition Fees. As compensation for the investigation, selection, sourcing and acquisition or origination (by purchase, investment or
exchange) of Properties, Loans and other Permitted Investments, the Company shall pay an Acquisition Fee calculated as set forth below in this Section 8.1 to the Advisor or its assignees for each such investment (whether an acquisition
or origination). With respect to the acquisition or origination of a Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment to be owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company or the Partnership, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor or its assignees
shall equal 1.0% of the sum of the amount actually paid or allocated to fund the acquisition, origination, development, construction or improvement of the Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment, inclusive of the Acquisition Expenses associated
with such Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment and the amount of any debt associated with, or used to fund the investment in, such Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment, but exclusive of the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor or
its assignees. The calculation of Acquisition Fees payable to the Advisor or its assignees will also include any amounts incurred or reserved for capital expenditures that will be used to provide funds for capital improvements and repairs applied to
any real property investment acquired where the Company plans to add value. With respect to the acquisition or origination of a Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment through any Joint Venture or any partnership in which the Company or the
Partnership is, directly or indirectly, a co-venturer or partner, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor or its assignees shall equal 1.0% of the portion that is attributable to the Company’s or the Partnership’s direct or indirect
investment in such Joint Venture or partnership of the amount actually paid or allocated to fund the acquisition, origination, development, construction or improvement of the Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment, inclusive of the Acquisition
Expenses associated with such Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment, plus the amount of any debt associated with, or used to fund the investment in, such Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment, but exclusive of the Acquisition Fee so
payable to the Advisor or its assignees. The 

  
 16 

	 	
Advisor shall submit an invoice to the Company following the closing or closings of each acquisition or origination, accompanied by a computation of the Acquisition Fee. The Acquisition Fee
payable to the Advisor or its assignees shall be paid at the closing of the transaction upon receipt of the invoice by the Company. 

  

	8.2	Asset Management Fee. The Company shall pay the Advisor or its assignees as compensation for the services described in Section 3.3 hereof a quarterly
fee (the “Asset Management Fee”) in an amount equal to 0.25% of the Management Fee Base. The Asset Management Fee is payable quarterly in advance, on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, in the
amount of 0.25% of the Management Fee Base for the preceding fiscal quarter. The Advisor shall submit an invoice to the Company, accompanied by a computation of the Asset Management Fee for the applicable period. The Asset Management Fee will be
appropriately pro rated for any partial fiscal quarter. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor shall elect
on a quarterly basis, to waive a portion of the Asset Management Fee payable for any applicable period if (i) as of the date of payment, the Company’s Modified Funds From Operations (“MFFO”) for the immediately preceding fiscal
quarter was less than the amount of distributions declared with respect to all record dates during such quarter and (ii) the distribution rate during such quarter was no more than $0.65 per share on an annualized basis. Accordingly, the portion
of the Asset Management Fee that is waived with respect to the applicable period will result in the Company achieving an MFFO amount for the period that is equal to the distributions declared during such period. As used herein, MFFO shall be defined
in accordance with the Investment Program Association Practice Guidelines 2010-01 issued in November 2010 or as subsequently modified by the Investment Program Association, with an additional adjustment to add back amounts received or receivable
from the Sub-advisor or an Affiliate thereof in the form of an additional capital contribution (without any corresponding issuance of equity in the form of common or preferred shares of beneficial interest to the Sub-advisor or its Affiliate).

  

	8.3	 Disposition Fees. If the Advisor or Sub-advisor or any of their Affiliates provides a substantial amount of services (as determined by the
Conflicts Committee) in connection with a Sale, then the Advisor or its assignees shall receive a fee at the closing (a “Disposition Fee”) equal to 2.0% of the Contract Sales Price; provided, however, that no
Disposition Fee shall be payable if the Sale is to an Affiliate of either the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor; provided further, however, that the payment of any Disposition Fees by the Company shall be subject to any limitations contained
in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Any Disposition Fee payable under this Section 8.3 may be paid in addition to commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total commissions (including such Disposition Fee) paid
to all Persons by the Company for each Sale shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6.0% of the aggregate Contract Sales Price of each applicable Property, Loan or other Permitted

  
 17 

	 	
Investment and (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for each applicable Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment. Substantial assistance in connection with the Sale of a Property
includes the preparation of an investment package for the Property (including a new investment analysis, rent rolls, tenant information regarding credit, a property title report, an environmental report, a list of prospective buyers, a structural
report and exhibits) or such other substantial services performed by the Advisor or Sub-advisor or any of their Affiliates in connection with a Sale. The Disposition Fee payable to the Advisor or its assignees shall be paid at the closing of the
transaction upon receipt of the invoice by the Company. 

  

	8.4	Financing Fee. In the event of any debt financing obtained by or for the Company, the Company will pay to the Advisor or its assignees upon the closing of such
debt financing a fee (a “Financing Fee”) equal to (i) 0.75% of the amount available under such debt financing, whether at the Company, Partnership, or any direct or indirect subsidiary level, and (ii) 0.75% of the portion
that is attributable to the Company’s or the Partnership’s direct or indirect investment in a Joint Venture or partnership in which the Company or the Partnership is, directly or indirectly, a co-venturer or partner. The Advisor (or
Sub-advisor) may reallow all or a portion of any Financing Fee to reimburse a non-Affiliated third party with whom it may subcontract to procure any such debt financing. All or any portion of the Financing Fees not taken as to any fiscal year shall
be deferred without interest and may be paid in such other fiscal year as the Advisor shall determine. 

  

	8.5	Subordinated Share of Cash Flows. Subject to the last sentence of Section 8.6, the Company will pay, from time to time when available, Subordinated
Share of Cash Flows to the Advisor or its assignees in an amount equal to 15% of Operating Cash Flow and 15% of Cash from Sales, Settlements and Financings remaining after the Stockholders have received Distributions of Operating Cash Flow and of
Cash from Sales, Settlements and Financings such that the owners of all outstanding Shares have received Distributions in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of, as of such point in time: 

 

	 	(A)	the Stockholders’ 7% Return; and 

  

	 	(B)	Invested Capital. 

 When
determining whether the above threshold has been met: 
  

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

  

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

  

	8.6	 Subordinated Incentive Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor or its assignees shall be entitled to the Subordinated Incentive Fee in an amount equal to
15.0% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the outstanding Shares, measured by 

  
 18 

	 	
taking the average closing price or the average of the bid and asked price, as the case may be, over a period of 30 days during which the Shares are traded, with such period beginning 180 days
after Listing (the “Market Value”), plus the total of all Distributions paid to Stockholders (excluding any stock dividends and any Distributions paid on Shares that have been repurchased or redeemed by the Company) from the
Company’s inception until the date that Market Value is determined, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital and (B) the total Distributions required to be paid to the Stockholders as of the date Market Value is
determined in order to pay the Stockholders’ 7% Return from inception through the date Market Value is determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a non-interest-bearing short-term promissory note
or any combination of the foregoing. The Subordinated Incentive Fee will be reduced by the amount of any prior payments to the Advisor or its assignees of Subordinated Share of Cash Flows. In the event the Subordinated Incentive Fee is paid to the
Advisor or its assignees following Listing, no additional Subordinated Share of Cash Flows will be paid to the Advisor or its assignees. 

  

	8.7	Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor or the Sub-advisor or any Affiliate or director, officer or employee of any of the foregoing render
services for the Company other than as set forth in this Agreement, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed upon by the Advisor, Sub-advisor or such Affiliate or other Person, on the one hand,
and the Board, including a majority of the Conflicts Committee, on the other hand, 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.

  

	8.8	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. 

  

	8.9	Internalization. In the event that the Company’s board of directors elects to internalize any management services provided by the Advisor or the
Sub-advisor, the Company shall not pay any compensation or other remuneration to the Advisor or the Sub-advisor or any of their Affiliates in connection with such internalization transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, any compensation paid or
payable by the Company to employees of the Company in connection with their employment by the Company (which employees were formerly employed by the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor or any of their Affiliates) shall not be deemed to be compensation or
other remuneration in connection with any internalization transaction for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence. This provision shall not limit any other consideration or distributions that the Company may pay the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor
in accordance with this agreement or the Sub-Advisory Agreement (in each case, as such agreement may be amended, restated or modified from time to time) or any other agreement. This provision shall in no way obligate the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor
to facilitate an internalization transaction with the Advisor, the Sub-Advisor or any of their Affiliates. 

  
 19 

	8.10	Limitation on Fees. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment of any fees or expenses pursuant to Articles 8 and 13 by the
Company shall be subject to the limitations thereon contained in the Articles of Incorporation. 

 Article 9

representative of the Advisor reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Sub-advisor to be a member of the initial Board of Directors of the Company if such representative executes an advance letter of resignation to become effective upon such time
that the Advisor is no longer serving as the advisor to the Company. 

  
 23 

	10.2	Other Voting of Shares. The Advisor agrees that, with respect to any Shares now or hereinafter owned by it, the Advisor will not vote or consent on matters

survive until such time that the Advisor is no longer serving as such. 

 Article 11 

Relationship Of Advisor And Company; Other Activities Of The Advisor 

 

	11.1	Relationship. The Company and the Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make them such
partners or joint venturers. Except as set forth in Section 11.3, nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor or any of its Affiliates from engaging in or earning fees from 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 any of its Affiliates. Nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any manager, director,
officer, member, partner, employee or equityholder 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. 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 other similar co-investment 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 promptly disclose to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, that creates or which
would reasonably result in a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other Person (it being understood and agreed that the conditions and circumstances referred to in
the second paragraph of Section 11.3 are deemed to have been disclosed to the Board for purposes of this Section 11.1). 

  

	11.2	Time Commitment. The Advisor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective employees, officers and agents to, devote to the Company such time as
shall be reasonably necessary to conduct the business and affairs of the Company in an appropriate manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that the Advisor and its Affiliates and their respective employees,
officers and agents may also engage in activities unrelated to the Company and may provide services to Persons other than the Company or any of its Affiliates. 

  
 24 

	11.3	Investment Opportunities. The Advisor shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present a continuing and suitable investment program to the
Company that is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company. So long as the Advisor is acting in its capacity as advisor under this Agreement, the Advisor will not (and will cause its Affiliates to not) (i) pursue any
opportunity to acquire any Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment that fits within the Company’s strategy, or (ii) offer such Property, Loan or other Permitted Investment to a third party, in each case unless and until such
opportunity is first presented to the Company. The Company shall have 30 days from the date of its receipt of a complete written offering package relating to such opportunity, customary in scope and content, to notify the Advisor of the
Company’s decision as to whether or not to pursue such opportunity. If the Company fails so to notify the Advisor within such 30-day period, the Company shall be deemed to have passed on such opportunity. If the Company passes on such
opportunity, then the Advisor or such Affiliate, as the case may be, may acquire the subject investment or offer the subject investment to a third party for a period of 180 days, in each case on terms and conditions (including price) that are not
materially different from the terms and conditions set forth in the offering package to the Company. If at the expiration of such 180-day period, such opportunity remains available, then the provisions of this Section 11.3 shall once
again apply to such opportunity. 

 Notwithstanding the preceding, however, the Advisor or any Affiliate of the
Advisor shall be permitted to pursue any opportunity or to offer any opportunity to a third party in respect of (i) any net leased retail, office and industrial properties or other property consistent with the investment policies of American
Reality Capital Trust, Inc., (ii) any commercial real estate or other real estate investments that relate to office, retail, multi-family residential, industrial and hotel property types, located primarily in the New York metropolitan area or
other property consistent with the investment policies of American Realty Capital New York Recovery REIT, Inc., or (iii) any investments to be made by a contemplated non-traded REIT (the “Identified REIT”) that the Advisor or
any of its Affiliates described as (a) intending to invest primarily in “power center” real estate developments, (b) being sponsored or co-sponsored by ARC (or one of its Affiliates), the acquisition services for which will be
provided by an international commercial and residential real estate developer and manager (or one of its Affiliates), and (c) being the subject of an executed letter of intent or term sheet between the Advisor (or one of its Affiliates) and
such international commercial and residential real estate developer and manager (or one of its Affiliates), and which has or will have as its publicly disclosed (and not subsequently revised or required to be revised under applicable securities
laws) investment objectives to have less than 20% of its assets (measured by purchase price) in anchored shopping centers with purchase prices of less than $20,000,000 per property (determined once the proceeds of the offering have been fully
invested).

Advisor agree that the Sub-advisor and its Affiliates will have the right to approve of any use by the Company of the names “Phillips Edison” or “PECO,” such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Accordingly, and
in recognition of this right, if at any time the Advisor ceases to retain the Sub-advisor or one of its Affiliates to perform advisory services for the Company, the Company will, promptly after receipt of written request from the Sub-advisor, cease
to conduct business under or use the names “Phillips Edison” and “PECO” 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 any of the names
“Phillips Edison” and “PECO” or any other word or words that might, in the reasonable discretion of the Sub-advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and the Sub-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 any of the names “Phillips Edison” or “PECO.” Consistent with the foregoing, it

arising in the performance of their duties hereunder or under any sub-advisory agreement, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully

indemnitee; or (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. 
  

	15.2	Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not provide for indemnification of the Advisor, the Sub-advisor or their
Affiliates or of their respective officers, directors, equity holders, members, partners and employees, for any liability or loss suffered by any of them, nor shall any of them be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Company,
unless all of the following conditions are met: 

  

	 	(A)	The Advisor, the Sub-advisor or one of their Affiliates (as applicable) has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was
in the best interests of the Company. 

  
 30 

	 	(B)	The Advisor, the Sub-advisor or one of Affiliates (as applicable) was 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, the Sub-advisor or one of their Affiliates (as applicable).

  

	15.3	Limitation on Payment of Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by any of the Advisor, the Sub-advisor
or their Affiliates, or by any of their respective officers, directors, equity holders, members, partners and employees, in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding only if (in addition to any applicable procedures required by the Maryland
General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time) all of the following are satisfied: (a) the proceeding relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company; (b) the legal
proceeding was initiated by a third party who is not a stockholder or, if by a stockholder acting in his or her capacity as such, a court of competent jurisdiction approves such advancement; and (c) such Person undertakes to repay the amount
paid or reimbursed by the Company, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification.
