maximum selling commissions and dealer manager fee allowed in the Offering, or,
after the Board has determined a reasonable estimated value of the Shares and
such value has been publicly disclosed, each Share shall be valued at the
then-current publicly disclosed reasonable estimated value.

    

    (g)         
Exclusion
of Certain Transactions.

    

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

    

    (ii)           If
the Board elects to internalize any management services provided by
the Advisor, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership shall pay
any compensation or other remuneration to the Advisor or its Affiliates in
connection with the internalization transaction.  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 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 in accordance with this Agreement or any other
agreement.  This provision shall in no way obligate the Advisor to
facilitate an internalization transaction with the Advisor or any of its
Affiliates.

    

    11.

    (a)           In

    (i)            Organization
and Offering Expenses, including third-party due diligence fees related to the
Primary Offering, as set forth in detailed and itemized invoices; provided, however, that the

cause the total amount of Organization and Offering Expenses paid by the Company
and the Operating Partnership to exceed one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the
Gross Proceeds raised in all Primary Offerings;

    

    (ii)           Acquisition

    (x)           expenses
connected with payments of Distributions;

    

    (xi)      
   expenses of organizing, revising, amending, converting,
modifying or terminating the Company, the Operating Partnership or any
subsidiary thereof or the Articles of Incorporation, By-laws or governing
documents of the Operating Partnership or any subsidiary of the Company or the
Operating Partnership;

    

    (xii)      
  expenses of maintaining communications with Stockholders, including

service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor or
its Affiliates in fulfilling its duties hereunder, including reasonable salaries

reimbursement shall be made for costs of such employees of the Advisor or its
Affiliates to the extent that such employees perform services for which the
Advisor receives a separate fee; and

    

    (xiv)         audit,
accounting and legal fees.

    

    (b)          Commencing
upon the earlier to occur of (i) the fifth fiscal quarter after the Company
makes its first Investment and (ii) six (6) months after the commencement of the
initial Offering, expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and
the Operating Partnership or in connection with the services provided by the
Advisor hereunder and payable pursuant to this Section 11 shall
be reimbursed, no less than monthly, to the Advisor.

    

    12.        
OTHER SERVICES.    Should the Board
request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render
services for the Company and the Operating Partnership other than set forth in
Section 3
, such services shall be separately compensated at such customary rates and in
such customary amounts as are agreed upon by the Advisor and the Board,
including a majority of the Independent Directors, subject to the limitations
contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be
services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

    

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

    14.         
OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR.   Except as set forth in this
Section 14 ,
nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor or any of its Affiliates from
engaging in or earning fees from other activities, including the rendering of
advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other
programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Sponsor or its Affiliates; nor
shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer,
member, partner, employee or stockholder of the Advisor or any of its Affiliates
to engage in or earn fees from any other business or to render services of any
kind to any other Person and earn fees for rendering such services; provided, however , that the
Advisor must devote sufficient resources to the Company’s business to discharge
its obligations to the Company under this Agreement.  The Advisor may, with
respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render
advice and service to each and every other participant therein, and earn fees
for rendering such advice and service.  Specifically, it is contemplated
that the Company may enter into Joint Ventures or other similar co-investment
arrangements with certain Persons, and pursuant to the agreements governing such
Joint Ventures or arrangements, the Advisor may be engaged to provide advice and
service to such Persons, in which case the Advisor will earn fees for rendering
such advice and service.

    

    The
Advisor shall report to the Board the existence of any condition or
circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates
or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the
Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other Person.  If the
Advisor, Director or Affiliates thereof have sponsored other investment programs
with similar investment objectives which have investment funds available at the
same time as the Company, the Advisor shall inform the Board of the method to be
applied by the Advisor in allocating investment opportunities among the Company
and competing investment entities and shall provide regular updates to the Board
of the investment opportunities provided by the Advisor to competing programs in
order for the Board (including the Independent Directors) to fulfill its duty to
ensure that the Advisor and its Affiliates use their reasonable best efforts to
apply such method fairly to the Company.

    

    15.         
THE AMERICAN REALTY CAPITAL NAME.   The Advisor and its
Affiliates have or may have a proprietary interest in the names “American Realty
Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital.”  The Advisor hereby grants to the
Company, to the extent of any proprietary interest the Advisor may have in any
of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital,” a
non-transferable, non-assignable, non-exclusive, royalty-free right and license
to use the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” during the
term of this Agreement. The Company agrees that the Advisor and its Affiliates
will have the right to approve of any use by the Company of the names “American
Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital,” such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any
time the Company ceases to retain the Advisor or one of its Affiliates to
perform advisory services for the Company, the Company will, promptly after
receipt of written request from the Advisor, cease to conduct business under or
use the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” or any
derivative thereof and the Company shall change its name and the names of any of
its subsidiaries to a name that does not contain the names “American Realty
Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” or any other word or words that might, in the
reasonable discretion of the Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form
of relationship between the Company and the Advisor or any its Affiliates. At
such time, the Company will also make any changes to any trademarks,
servicemarks or other marks necessary to remove any references to the words
“American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital.” Consistent with the
foregoing, it is specifically recognized that the Advisor or one or more of its
Affiliates has in the past and may in the future organize, sponsor or otherwise
permit to exist other investment vehicles (including vehicles for investment in
real estate) and financial and service organizations having any of the names
“American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” as a part of their name, all
without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by
the Company.  Neither the Advisor nor any of its Affiliates makes any
representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the names
“American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” licensed hereunder or the use
thereof (including without limitation as to whether the use of the names
“American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR Capital” will be free from infringement
of the intellectual property rights of third parties.  Notwithstanding
the preceding, the Advisor represents and warrants that it is not aware of any
pending claims or litigation or of any claims threatened in writing regarding
the use or ownership of the names “American Realty Capital,” “ARC” and “AR
Capital.”

    

    16.         
TERM OF AGREEMENT.   This Agreement shall continue in force for
a period of one year from the date hereof.  Thereafter, the term may
be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year terms upon mutual
consent of the parties.

    

    17.         
TERMINATION BY THE PARTIES.   This Agreement may be terminated
upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice (a) by the Independent Directors
of the Company or the Advisor, without Cause and without penalty, (b) by the
Advisor for Good Reason, or (c) by the Advisor upon a Change of
Control.  The provisions of Sections 15
and 19
through 31
(inclusive) of this Agreement shall survive any expiration or earlier
termination of this Agreement.

    18.        
ASSIGNMENT TO AN AFFILIATE.   This Agreement may be assigned by
the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of a majority of the Directors
(including a majority of the Independent Directors).  The Advisor may
assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement to any
Person without obtaining the approval of the Directors.  This
Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company or the Operating Partnership
without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the
Company or the Operating Partnership to a Person which is a successor to all the
assets, rights and obligations of the Company or the Operating Partnership, in
which case such successor Person shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of
said assignment in the same manner as the Company or the Operating Partnership,
as applicable, is bound by this Agreement.

    

    19.

    (a)         
Amounts
Owed .  After the
Termination Date, the Advisor shall be entitled to receive from the Company or
the Operating Partnership within thirty (30) days after the effective date

applicable.

    

    (b)        
Advisor’s
Duties.  The Advisor shall promptly upon termination of this

with the Company and the Operating Partnership to provide an orderly management
transition.

    

    20.         INCORPORATION
OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP
AGREEMENT.  To the extent that the Articles of Incorporation or
the Operating Partnership Agreement as in effect on the date hereof impose
obligations or restrictions on the Advisor or grant the Advisor certain rights
which are not set forth in this Agreement, the Advisor shall abide by such
obligations or restrictions and such rights shall inure to the benefit of the
Advisor with the same force and effect as if they were set forth
herein.

    

    21.     
   INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY AND THE OPERATING
PARTNERSHIP.

    

    (a)       
  The Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally,
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, as well as
their respective officers, directors, equity holders, members, partners,
stockholders, other equity holders and employees (collectively, the “ Indemnitees ,” and
each, an “ Indemnitee ”), from
and against all losses, claims, damages, losses, joint or several, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal fees and expenses),
judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts (collectively, “Losses”) arising in
the performance of their duties hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
to the extent such Losses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, and to the
extent that such indemnification would not be inconsistent with the laws of the
State of New York, the Articles of Incorporation or the provisions of
Section II.G of the NASAA REIT Guidelines.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not provide for
indemnification of an Indemnitee for any Loss suffered by such Indemnitee, nor
shall they provide that an Indemnitee be held harmless for any Loss suffered by
the Company and the Operating Partnership, unless all the following conditions
are met:

    

    (i)           the
Indemnitee has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused
the loss or liability was in the best interest of the Company and the Operating
Partnership;

    

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

    
      
         

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

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

    

    (iv)        such
indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is not recoverable from the
Stockholders.

    

    (b)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, an Indemnitee shall not be indemnified by the Company and the
Operating Partnership for any Losses arising from or out of an alleged violation
of federal or state securities laws by such Indemnitee 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 Indemnitee;

    

    (ii)         the
related claim has been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of
competent jurisdiction as to the Indemnitee; or

    

    (iii)        a
court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the related claim
against the 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 or the Operating Partnership were
offered or sold as to indemnification for violation of securities
laws.

    

    (c)           In
addition, the advancement of the Company’s or the Operating Partnership’s funds
to an Indemnitee for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any
legal action for which indemnification is being sought is permissible only if
all the following conditions are satisfied:

    

    (i)           the
legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of
duties or services on behalf of the Company or the Operating
Partnership;

    

    (ii)          the
legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a Stockholder or the legal
action is initiated by a Stockholder acting in such Stockholder’s capacity as
such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such
advancement; and

    

    (iii)         the
Indemnitee undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the Company or the
Operating Partnership, together with the applicable legal rate of interest
thereon, in cases in which such Indemnitee is ultimately found not to be
entitled to indemnification in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court if
competent jurisdiction.

    

    22.        
INDEMNIFICATION BY ADVISOR.   The Advisor shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership from Losses, to the
extent that such Losses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred
by reason of the Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, willful misfeasance, intentional
misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties; provided, however, that the
Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board in following
or declining to follow any advice or recommendation given by the
Advisor.

CERTAIN TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS

     

    5.1  All
Awards.  All Awards shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:

     

    (a)  
Changes in Capital
Structure.  If the number of outstanding Shares is increased by
means of a share dividend payable in Shares, a share split or other subdivision
or by a reclassification of Shares, then, from and after the record date for
such dividend, subdivision or reclassification, the number and class of Shares
subject to this Plan shall be increased in proportion to such increase in
outstanding Shares.  If the number of outstanding Shares is decreased
by means of a reverse share split or other combination or by a reclassification
of Shares, then, from and after the record date for such combination or
reclassification, the number and class of Shares subject to this Plan shall be
decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Shares.

    

    (b)  
Certain Corporate
Transactions    In the event of any change in the capital
structure or business of the Company by reason of any recapitalization,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, subdivision, combination,
exchange of Shares or any similar change affecting the Company’s capital
structure or business, then the aggregate number and kind of Shares which
thereafter may be issued under this Plan shall be appropriately adjusted
consistent with such change in such manner as the Committee or the Board may
deem equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights
granted to, or available for, Participants under this Plan, and any such
adjustment determined by the Committee or the Board in good faith shall be
binding and conclusive on the Company and all Participants and employees and
their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.

    

    (c)  
Grant
Date.  Each Award Agreement shall specify the date as of which
it shall be effective (the “Grant
Date”).

    

    (d)  
Vesting.  Each
Award shall vest, and any restrictions thereunder shall lapse, as the case may
be, at such times and in such amounts as may be specified by the Committee in
the applicable Award Agreement.

    

    (e)  
Nonassignability of
Rights.  Awards shall not be transferable other than with the
consent of the Committee or the Board or by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.

    

    (f)  
Termination of
Employment from the Company, the Advisor or any Affiliate of the
Company.  The Committee shall establish, in respect of each
Award when granted, the effect of an Employment Termination on the rights and
benefits thereunder and in so doing may, but need not, make distinctions based
upon the cause of termination (such as retirement, death, disability or other
factors) or which party effected the termination (the employer or the
employee).

    

    (g)  
Minimum Purchase
Price.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the
contrary, if authorized but previously unissued Shares are issued under this
Plan, such Shares shall not be issued for a consideration which is less than as
permitted under Applicable Law, and in no event, shall such consideration be
less than the par value per Share multiplied by the number of Shares to be
issued.

    

    (h)  
Other
Provisions.  Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms,
provisions and conditions not inconsistent with this Plan, as may be determined
by the Committee.

    

    5.2  Restricted
Shares.  Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following
terms and conditions:

    

    (a)  
Grant.  The
Committee may grant one or more Awards of Restricted Shares to any Participant
other than Non-Employee Directors.  Each Award of Restricted Shares
shall specify the number of Shares to be issued to the Participant, the date of
issuance and the restrictions imposed on the Shares including the conditions of
release or lapse of such restrictions.  Upon the issuance of
Restricted Shares, the Participant may be required to furnish such additional
documentation or other assurances as the Committee may require to enforce
restrictions applicable thereto.

    

    (b)  
Restrictions.  Except
as specifically provided elsewhere in this Plan or the Award Agreement regarding
Restricted Shares, Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, either voluntarily or
involuntarily, until the restrictions have lapsed and the rights to the Shares
have vested.  The Committee may in its sole discretion provide for the
lapse of such restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such
restrictions, in whole or in part, based on service, performance or such other
factors or criteria as the Committee may determine.

    (c)  
Dividends.  Unless
otherwise determined by the Committee, cash dividends with respect to Restricted
Shares shall be paid to the recipient of the Award of Restricted Shares on the
normal dividend payment dates, and dividends payable in Shares shall be paid in
the form of Restricted Shares having the same terms as the Restricted Shares
upon which such dividend is paid.  Each Award Agreement for Awards of
Restricted Shares shall specify whether and, if so, the extent to which the
Participant shall be obligated to return to the Company any cash dividends paid
with respect to any Restricted Shares which are subsequently
forfeited.

    

    (d)  
Forfeiture of
Restricted Shares.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in
the applicable Award Agreement, when a Participant’s Employment Termination
occurs, the Participant shall automatically forfeit all Restricted Shares still
subject to restriction.

     

    SECTION 6.  
DIRECTOR SHARES

    

    6.1 Automatic Grant.
  Non-Employee Directors shall receive 3,000 Restricted Shares on the date
of each annual stockholders’ meeting.

    

    6.2 Vesting.  
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
5.1(d), Awards of Restricted Shares made to Non-Employee Directors
shall vest over a five-year period following the first anniversary of the Grant
Date in increments of 20% per annum.

    

    6.3  Election.  The
Company shall pay to each individual who is a Non-Employee Director an annual
fee in the amount set from time to time by the Board (the “Retainer”).  Each
Non-Employee Director shall be entitled to receive his or her Retainer
exclusively in cash, exclusively in unrestricted Shares (“Director
Shares”) or any portion in cash and Director Shares.  Following
the approval of this Plan by the stockholders of the Company, each Non-Employee
Director shall be given the opportunity, during the month in which the
Non-Employee Director first becomes a Non-Employee Director, and during each
December thereafter, to elect among these choices for the balance of the
calendar year (in the case of the election made during the month the
Non-Employee Director first becomes a Non-Employee Director) and for the ensuing
calendar year (in the case of a subsequent election made during any
December).  If the Non-Employee Director chooses to receive at least
some of his or her Retainer in Director Shares, the election shall also indicate
the percentage of the Retainer to be paid in Director Shares.  If a
Non-Employee Director makes no election during his or her first opportunity to
make an election, the Non-Employee Director shall be assumed to have elected to
receive his or her entire Retainer in cash.

    

    6.4  Issuance.  The
Company shall make the first issuance of Director Shares to electing Directors
on the first business day following the last day of the full calendar quarter
following the approval of this Plan by the Company’s
stockholders.  Subsequent issuances of Director Shares shall be made
on the first business day of each subsequent calendar quarter and shall be made
to all persons who are Non-Employee Directors on that day except any
Non-Employee Director whose Retainer is to be paid entirely in
cash.  The number of Shares issuable to those Non-Employee Directors
on the relevant date indicated above shall equal:

    

    (% x
R/4)/P, where:

    

    % = the
percentage of the Non-Employee Director’s Retainer that the Non-Employee
Director elected or is deemed to have elected to receive in the form of Director
Shares, expressed as a decimal;

    

    R = the
Non-Employee Director’s Retainer for the year during which the issuance occurs;
and

    

    P = the
Fair Market Value.

    

    Director
Shares shall not include any fractional Shares.  Fractions shall be
rounded to the nearest whole Share (with one-half being rounded
upward).

    SECTION 7.  
SECURITIES LAWS

    

    Nothing
in this Plan or in any Award or Award Agreement shall require the Company to
issue any Shares with respect to any Award if, in the opinion of counsel for the
Company, that issuance could constitute a violation of any Applicable
Laws.  As a condition to the grant of any Award, the Company may
require the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death, the
Participant’s legal representatives, heirs, legatees or distributees) to provide
written representations concerning the Participant’s (or such other person’s)
intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the Shares covered by
the Award and written covenants as to the manner of disposal of such Shares as
may be necessary or useful to ensure that the grant or disposition thereof will
not violate the Securities Act, any other law or any rule of any applicable
securities exchange or securities association then in effect.  The
Company shall not be required to register any Shares under the Securities Act or
register or qualify any Shares under any state or other securities
laws.

    

    SECTION 8.  
EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER RELATIONSHIP

    

    Nothing
in this Plan or any Award shall in any way interfere with or limit the right of
the Company, the Advisor or any Affiliate of the Company to terminate any
Participant’s employment or status as a consultant or Director at any time, nor
confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or as a
Director or consultant of, the Company, the Advisor or any Affiliate of the
Company.

    

    SECTION 9.  
AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION OF THIS PLAN

    

    The Board
may at any time amend, suspend or discontinue this Plan, provided that such
amendment, suspension or discontinuance meets the requirements of Applicable
Laws, including without limitation, any applicable requirements for
stockholder approval.  Notwithstanding the above, an amendment,
suspension or discontinuation shall not be made if it would impair the rights of
any Participant under any Award previously granted, without the Participant’s
consent, except to conform this Plan and Awards granted to the requirements of
Applicable Laws.  The provisions of this Plan relating to Awards for
Non-Employee Directors may not be amended more than once each six
months.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the
contrary, if the Board determines that any Award may be subject to
Section 409A of the Code, the Board may adopt such amendment to the Plan
and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures
(including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take
any other actions that the Board determines are necessary or appropriate,
without the consent of the Participant, to (a) exempt the Award from
Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the
benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

    

    SECTION 10. 
 LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE BOARD

    

    No person
constituting, or member of the group constituting, the Board shall be liable for
any act or omission on such person’s part, including but not limited to the
exercise of any power or discretion given to such member under this Plan, except
for those acts or omissions resulting from such member’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct.  The Company shall indemnify each present and
future person constituting, or member of the group constituting, the Board
against, and each person or member of the group constituting the Board shall be
entitled without further act on his or her part to indemnity from the Company
for, all expenses (including the amount of judgments and the amount of approved
settlements made with a view to the curtailment of costs of litigation)
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with or arising out of any
action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by law and by the
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company.

    

    SECTION 11.  
SEVERABILITY

    

    If any
provision of this Plan is held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, that
illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining portions of this Plan,
but such provision shall be fully severable and this Plan shall be construed and
enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had never been included in this
Plan.  Such an illegal or invalid provision shall be replaced by a
revised provision that most nearly comports to the substance of the illegal or
invalid provision.  If any of the terms or provisions of this Plan or
any Award Agreement conflict with the requirements of Applicable Laws, those
conflicting terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they
conflict with Applicable Law.

    SECTION 12.  
SECTION 409A OF THE CODE

    

    Awards
granted under the Plan are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the
Code.  To the extent that the Plan is not exempt from the requirements
of Section 409A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed and
interpreted in accordance with such intent.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional
tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on a Participant by Section 409A of
the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the
Code.

    

    SECTION 13.
  WITHHOLDING

    

    The
Company shall have the right to deduct from any payment to be made to a
Participant, or to otherwise require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any
Shares or the payment of any cash hereunder, payment by the Participant of, any
federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld.  Upon
the vesting of Restricted Shares, or upon making an election under Section 83(b)
of the Code, a Participant shall pay all required withholding to the
Company.  The Board may permit any such statutory withholding
obligation with regard to any Participant to be satisfied by reducing the number
of Shares otherwise deliverable or by delivering Shares already
owned.

    

    SECTION 14.
  GOVERNING LAW

    

    This Plan
shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Maryland (regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable
principles of conflict of laws).

    

    SECTION 15.
