(ii) Invested Capital.

 

When determining whether this has been met: (A) Any stock dividend shall not be included as a Distribution; and (B) Distributions paid on shares of Common Stock redeemed by the Company (and thus not included in the determination of Invested Capital), shall not be included as a Distribution.

Following Listing, no Subordinated Share of Cash From Sales or Refinancings will be paid to the Advisor.

(ii) the sum of (A) Invested Capital and (B) the total Distributions required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders’ 7% Return from inception through the date Market Value is determined.

In the event the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no other performance fee will be paid to the Advisor.

 

(h) Subordinated Performance Fee Due Upon Termination. If (1) the Company terminates this Agreement for any reason other than a material breach hereof by the Advisor, (2) the Agreement is not renewed because the Company is unwilling to renew this Agreement on substantially similar terms, or (3) the Advisor terminates the Agreement because of a material breach hereof by the Company, then, subject to the limitations in Section 16(a)(ii), the Company shall pay the Subordinated Performance Fee Due Upon Termination, payable in the form of a promissory note (the “Performance Fee Note”) bearing simple interest at a rate of 5% per annum, in a principal amount equal to 10% the amount, if any, by which

 

(i) the sum of (A) the Appraised Value of the Company’s Properties at the Termination Date, less amounts of all indebtedness secured by the Company’s Properties, plus the net asset value of all other Loans and Permitted Investments of the Company, net of any appropriate adjustments for joint ventures, minority interests or non-controlling stockholder interests and (B) total Distributions (excluding any stock dividend and Distributions paid on shares of Common Stock redeemed by the Company pursuant to a plan for repurchase of the Company’s Common Stock) through the Termination Date (up to the amount of total Distributions required to be made to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders’ 7% Return from inception through the Termination Date), exceeds

-19-

  

 

The Company shall repay the Performance Fee Note at such time as the Company completes the first Sale of a Property owned as of the Termination Date using Cash from Sales in an amount equal to the value such Property. If such amount is insufficient to pay the Performance Fee Note in full, then the Performance Fee Note shall be paid in part from the Cash from Sales from the first Sale of a Property owned as of the Termination Date, and in part from the Cash from Sales from each successive Sale of Properties owned as of the Termination Date in an amount equal to the value such Properties until the Performance Fee Note is repaid in full. If the Performance Fee Note has not been paid in full within five years from the Termination Date, then the holder of the Performance Fee Note, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the Performance Fee Note into Common Stock at a price per share equal to the average closing price of the shares of Common Stock over the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of such election if the Common Stock is Listed at such time. If the Common Stock is not Listed at such time, the holder of the Performance Fee Note, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the fee into shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value for such Shares as determined by the Board of Directors based upon the Appraised Value of Company’s Properties, Loans, and other Permitted Investments, net of any debt thereon, and net of any appropriate adjustments for joint ventures, minority interests or non-controlling stockholder interests, on the date of election.

(i) Fee Credit. Subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof, the Advisor and any of its affiliates may advise other owners or prospective owners of assets in the Healthcare Sector (“Third Party Owners”) and earn fees for such efforts.

The Advisor shall report promptly to the Board of Directors the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, that creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other Person.

 

(b) Rights of First Refusal. The Advisor shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present a continuing investment program to the Company that is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company. The Advisor hereby grants to the Company an irrevocable right of first refusal to acquire any investment opportunity in the Healthcare Sector identified by or on behalf of the Advisor or any of its Affiliates until such time as the Company has made investments following the Effective Date in Property, Loans and other Permitted Investments in an aggregate amount of at least $20,000,000 plus the proceeds, if any, from the refinancing of Property owned as of the Effective Date. During the period that such right of first refusal is effective, the Advisor shall be obligated to present every investment opportunity involving the Healthcare Sector to the Company. With respect to any particular investment opportunity, the Company shall have twenty (20) days from the receipt of such investment opportunity from the Advisor to review, and then approve or decline of such investment opportunity (such period the “Right of First Refusal Period”). The Company shall notify the Advisor in writing prior to the end of the Right of First Review Period if an investment opportunity has been approved or declined. If the Company fails to notify the Advisor of its determination with respect to an investment opportunity prior to the end of the Right of First Refusal Period, or notifies the Advisor that it has declined such investment opportunity, then such investment opportunity shall be deemed a “Passed Investment.” If the Company notifies the Advisor within the Right of First Refusal Period that it has approved an investment opportunity, but subsequently elects not to, or otherwise fails to, complete the acquisition of such investment opportunity within one hundred eighty (180) days following the commencement of the Right of First Refusal Period (or such shorter period as the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may approve), then such investment opportunity shall also be deemed a Passed Investment. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(i), the Advisor has the right to pursue any Passed Investment in any manner it chooses and with any source of capital that it chooses.

11. 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, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 8(i).

 

12. 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.
