ARTICLE V
SPECIFIED EMPLOYEE MATTERS

SECTION 5.1                 Employees and Offers of Employment.

(a)       Effective as of the Closing, REIT I shall offer employment to the Specified Employees on the terms and subject to the conditions determined by the Compensation Committee of the REIT I Board in accordance with the provisions of this Article V. The Specified Employees who accept and commence employment after the Closing with REIT I are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Transferred Employees.” For the period commencing on September 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2013, such Transferred Employees shall receive substantially similar (or more beneficial) base salaries and cash bonus opportunities as received immediately prior to the Closing. Further, REIT I hereby assumes, as of the Closing, all Liabilities of Transferred Employees (including the employment and termination thereof) arising after the Closing in connection with their employment by REIT I, including the employment and termination thereof. Except for REIT I’s indemnification for PTO Liabilities pursuant to Section 5.2 and assumption of severance benefits for Non-Hired Specified Employees pursuant to Section 5.3, REIT I does not assume, and shall not be liable or responsible for, any Liabilities with respect to any Specified Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee (each, a “Non-Hired Specified Employee”) or any other employee of the Service Providers (such Liabilities, the “Excluded Employee Liabilities”).

(b)       Subject to applicable Law and the terms of any Contract between a Transferred Employee and REIT I, each Transferred Employee shall be, upon acceptance and commencement of employment with REIT I, an “at will” employee of REIT I, and nothing in this Article V shall create a contract of employment between (x) REIT I or any of its Affiliates and (y) a Transferred Employee, nor limit the right of REIT I and its Affiliates to terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee at any time, for any reason, with or without cause, and without notice.

SECTION 5.2                 Paid Time Off; Other Leave.

For the period commencing on September 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2013, REIT I shall provide to each Transferred Employee paid time off, vacation, and other accrued leaves of absence benefits (“PTO Benefits”) substantially comparable in the aggregate as those provided by the Behringer Group immediately prior to Closing, and REIT I shall give each Transferred Employee credit for the remaining PTO Benefits accrued by such Transferred Employee during his or her employment with the Behringer Group prior to Closing (that has not been forfeited or lost as of Closing), but REIT I may subject such accrued PTO Benefits to any accrual caps and use limitations (such as a “use it or lose it” policy) that are comparable to the accrual caps and use limitations under the comparable Behringer Group policies for PTO Benefits, as REIT I may reasonably determine. To the extent that any member of the Behringer Group incurs any Damages with respect to any Liabilities for PTO Benefits with respect to any Specified Employee (collectively, the “PTO Liabilities”), REIT I shall indemnify such member of the Behringer Group with respect to such Damages.

20

SECTION 5.3                 Severance Obligations.

(a)       From September 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013, REIT I shall provide severance benefits substantially comparable to those which would be provided using the formula set forth in Schedule 5.3 to any Transferred Employee who is involuntarily terminated by REIT I under circumstances that would entitle the Transferred Employee to severance benefits had his or her employment been terminated by a member of the Behringer Group immediately prior to Closing (for example, REIT I shall be under no obligation to provide severance benefits to any Transferred Employee who has been terminated for cause). If REIT I or any of its Affiliates seeks a release from any Transferred Employee with respect to Claims of such Transferred Employee against REIT I or its Affiliates (an “Employee Release”), REIT I shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a release releasing (among other Persons) the Behringer Indemnified Parties of all employment-related Claims of such Transferred Employee arising during his or her term of service (as an employee or otherwise) with the Behringer Group prior to Closing on substantially similar terms as such Employee Release.

(b)       REIT I shall reimburse the applicable member of the Behringer Group for any severance benefits paid up to the amount determined using the formula set forth in Schedule 5.3 to any Non-Hired Specified Employee who has his or her employment terminated by the applicable member of the Behringer Group within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date.

SECTION 5.4                 Employee Benefit Plans.

(a)       Effective as of 11:59 P.M. on the Closing Date, Transferred Employees shall cease participation in any and all Behringer Plans and shall be eligible to participate in employee benefit and fringe benefit plans maintained by REIT I or one of its Affiliates (the “REIT I Plans”). Effective as of 12:00 A.M. September 1, 2012 and continuing for a period ending on December 31, 2013, REIT I shall provide to the Transferred Employees through REIT I Plans, employee benefits and fringe benefits which are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the employee benefits and fringe benefits provided to such Transferred Employees under the Behringer Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b)       Following the Closing Date, each Transferred Employee shall receive credit for all purposes (including credit for eligibility, benefit accrual and for vesting) under the REIT I Plans for years of service with the Behringer Group; provided, however, that with respect to any credit for benefit accruals under any REIT I Plan, there shall be no duplication of benefits or accruals under the employee benefit plans or programs of REIT I and those of the Behringer Group (for example, with respect to employer contributions under a REIT 401(k) Plan).

(c)       It is the intention of the Parties that the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents be placed in no worse a position but no better a position than if they had remained participants in the group health plan of the Behringer Group for the remainder of the applicable plan year. Following the Closing Date, REIT I shall cause any and all pre-existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of

21

insurability requirements under any REIT I Plans that are group health plans in which such Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents shall participate to be waived (but only to the extent that such Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents would be covered under the applicable group health plan of the Behringer Group).

(d)       As of the Closing, (i) REIT I hereby assumes all obligations and Liabilities under COBRA (“COBRA Liabilities”) for each Transferred Employee (and his/her dependents and beneficiaries) for a qualifying event occurring after the Closing Date, and (ii) no member of the Behringer Group shall have any COBRA Liabilities with respect to such Transferred Employees (and their dependents and beneficiaries).

(e)       As of 12:00 A.M. September 1, 2012, (i) the election levels and the coverage levels of the Transferred Employees shall apply under the REIT I FSA Plans in the same manner as under the Behringer FSA Plans, and (ii) the Transferred Employees shall be reimbursed from the REIT I FSA Plans for claims incurred from and after 12:00 A.M. September 1, 2012 on the same basis and the same terms and conditions as under the Behringer FSA Plans. Subject to a reasonable blackout period for claims arising prior to the Closing Date, the account balances of the Transferred Employees with respect to the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs (whether positive or negative) (the “Transferred Account Balances”) under the Behringer FSA Plans shall be transferred to one or more REIT I FSA Plans. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, and in any event within thirty (30) Business Days after the amount of the Transferred Account Balances is determined, Services Holdings shall pay or cause to be paid to REIT I, in cash, the net aggregate amount of the Transferred Account Balances of such Transferred Employees, if such amount is positive, and REIT I shall pay Services Holdings (or its designee), in cash, the net aggregate amount of the Transferred Account Balances of such Transferred Employees, if such amount is negative. All adjustments shall be based upon the assumption that the flexible spending account plans for both the Behringer Group and REIT I and its Affiliates are calendar year plans. For purposes of illustration, if a Transferred Employee who made a $5,000 annual election with respect to the Behringer FSA Plan spent all $5,000 prior to June 30 and was transferred on June 30, such employee would have a negative account balance of $2,500.

(f)       As of the Closing Date, Transferred Employee shall cease participation in the Behringer Harvard Employee Retirement Plan (the “Behringer 401(k) Plan”). Further, effective as of this date, Service Providers will take or cause to be taken any and all actions required to fully vest such Transferred Employees in their account balances in such Behringer 401(k) Plan. Lastly, as of the Closing Date or as soon as practicable thereafter, Service Providers shall cause the Behringer 401(k) Plan, in a trust to trust transfer, to transfer the account balances of the Transferred Employees in the Behringer 401(k) Plan to the Metis Property Investments, LLC 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “REIT I 401(k) Plan”) and REIT I shall cause the REIT I 401(k) Plan to accept such asset transfer. The Service Providers and REIT I shall take any actions necessary and required by Law and the terms of each such plan to effectuate such transfer.

(g)       The Service Providers shall be responsible for and shall bear and discharge all Liabilities for any and all claims incurred or made by Transferred

22

Employees (as well as any other employee of the Service Providers) and their dependents and beneficiaries on and before 11:59 P.M. August 31, 2012 under any Behringer Plan (“Excluded Employee Claims”). REIT I hereby shall be responsible for and discharge all Liabilities for any and all claims incurred on or after 12:00 A.M. September 1, 2012 by Transferred Employees (and their dependents and beneficiaries) under REIT I Plans. For purposes of this Section 5.4(g), a claim shall be deemed incurred, in the case of health benefits (which includes hospital, surgical, medical, dental or vision benefits), when the services that are the subject of the claim are performed or provided and, in the case of other benefits (such as life insurance, sickness, accident, severance and disability benefits), when an event has occurred or when a condition has been diagnosed that entitles the individual to the benefit.

SECTION 5.5                                                  No Third Party Beneficiaries.

No provision of this Article V shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any employee or former or future employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of the Behringer Group or REIT I or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Employee) in respect of employment, continued employment (or resumed employment), compensation, benefits, or severance, and no provision of this Article V shall create any such rights in any such Persons in respect of any compensation, benefits, or severance that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Behringer Plan or any plan or arrangement which may be established by REIT I or any of its Affiliates. No provision of this Agreement is intended as, nor shall any provision of this Agreement constitute, the establishment, amendment, or modification of, or supplement to, any employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, any other Behringer Plan or REIT I Plan, or with respect to the LTIP Program. No provision of this Agreement shall constitute a limitation on the rights of the Behringer Group, REIT I or their respective Affiliates to establish, amend, modify, supplement, or terminate after the Closing Date any such plans or arrangements.

ARTICLE VI

REIT I has available and REIT I shall reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive and other similar rights of stockholders, the requisite aggregate number of authorized but unissued shares of REIT I Common Stock to enable REIT I to timely effect the issuance and delivery in full to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock the shares of REIT I Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such Series A Preferred Stock, in any case prior to the issuance to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock of such shares of REIT I Common Stock.

Moreover, the Receiving Party agrees to transmit Confidential Material to its Representatives only if and to the extent that the Representatives need to know the Confidential Material for purposes of the transactions contemplated hereby and are informed by the Receiving Party of the confidential nature of the Confidential Material and of the terms of this Section 6.3. In any event, the Receiving Party will be responsible for any actions by its Representatives which are not in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may reveal Confidential Material to any Governmental Authority if and only if such information to be disclosed is (i) approved in writing by the Providing Party for disclosure, (ii) in response to an informal request for information from the SEC, provided that (A) the Receiving Party shall notify the Providing Party of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding the request and (B) any Confidential Material so disclosed shall be disclosed on a confidential basis and shall continue to be deemed Confidential Material for purposes of this Agreement, or (iii) subject to Section 6.3(c), required by Law to be disclosed by the Receiving Party.

24

requested (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil or criminal investigative demand, any informal or formal investigation by any Governmental Authority or otherwise in connection with any legal process) or required by applicable Law to disclose any Confidential Material, the Receiving Party agrees: (i) to promptly notify the Providing Party of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding a request or requirement; (ii) to consult with the Providing Party on the advisability of taking available legal steps to resist or narrow the request or requirement; and (iii) if disclosure of the information nonetheless is required by Law to be disclosed by the Receiving Party, then the Receiving Party shall give prior written notice of such required disclosure to the Providing Party and the Receiving Party shall cooperate with the Providing Party to limit the extent of such disclosure, including by submission of a request for confidential treatment with the SEC for Confidential Materials contained in REIT I SEC Filings.

(d)                                 The provisions of Section 6.3 shall expire and cease to have any further force and effect on the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

SECTION 6.4                                                  Behringer Nominees.

(a)                                  So long as the members of the Behringer Group and their respective employees and any direct and indirect owners of Equity Interests in the LTIP (including employees participating in the LTIP Program) or Behringer Harvard Holdings, LLC hold, in the aggregate, at least 2,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, at any time at which REIT I’s stockholders shall have the right to, or shall, vote for or consent in writing to the election of directors of REIT I (whether at an annual meeting of REIT I’s stockholders, a special meeting of REIT I’s stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors of REIT I or at any adjournment or postponement thereof), then, and in each such event, Services Holdings shall have the right to designate two (2) nominees to serve as directors (the “Behringer Nominees”); provided, however, that if the Nominating Committee of the REIT I Board deems any such Behringer Nominee not reasonably acceptable, the REIT I Board may require that Services Holdings nominate an alternative director, it being acknowledged and agreed that the individuals set forth on Schedule 6.4(a) are deemed reasonably acceptable to the Nominating Committee of the REIT I Board; provided, however, that no such designation may be made if, following such election, there would be more than two (2) Behringer Nominees serving as directors on the REIT I Board.

(b)                                 At each annual meeting of REIT I’s stockholders, special meeting of REIT I’s stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors of REIT I, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, the REIT I Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) shall (i) nominate each Behringer Nominee for election as a member of the REIT I Board and (ii) include each Behringer Nominee in any proxy statement and related materials used by REIT I in respect of the election to which such nomination pertains. REIT I agrees to use its reasonable best efforts (to the extent within the control of REIT I) to cause the Behringer Nominees to be elected to the REIT I Board. Subject to the REIT I Organizational Documents, if a Behringer Nominee is not elected a member of the REIT I Board at such a stockholders meeting, (i) Services Holdings may designate a replacement Behringer Nominee to serve as director; provided, however, that such

25

Behringer Nominee must be deemed reasonably acceptable by the Nominating Committee of the REIT I Board; provided further, that the individuals listed on Schedule 6.4(b) are deemed reasonably acceptable by the Nominating Committee of the REIT I Board, and (ii) the REIT I Board shall appoint (as promptly as practicable) such replacement Behringer Nominee to the REIT I Board, including, if necessary, by adding additional directorships to the REIT I Board. Upon the death, resignation or removal of a Behringer Nominee that is a member of the REIT I Board (or has been nominated), Services Holdings may designate a replacement Behringer Nominee to fill such vacancy (or nomination), and REIT I shall appoint such replacement Behringer Nominee to the REIT I Board as promptly as practicable (or use the same reasonable best efforts to cause such Behringer Nominee to be elected to the REIT I Board as it was obligated to use with respect to the original Behringer Nominee). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, (A) there shall not be more than two (2) Behringer Nominees serving as directors on the REIT I Board at any time, and (B) REIT I need not take any action under this Section 6.4(b) if such would be the case.

(c)                                  For so long as the Consulting Agreement remains in effect, Services Holdings hereby designates ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as one of the Behringer Nominees.

(d)                                 Each Behringer Nominee who (i) serves on the REIT I Board, (ii) does not serve as an officer of REIT I, and (iii) does not provide consulting services to REIT I other than commensurate with such Behringer Nominee’s service as a director (including ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ if he ceases to serve as Chief Executive Officer of REIT I and ceases to provide services to REIT I pursuant to the Consulting Agreement), shall be entitled to compensation equivalent to the compensation generally provided to a non-employee director of the REIT I Board who is not a Behringer Nominee from time to time.

SECTION 6.5                                                  Status of the Existing Advisory Agreement.

Notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Existing Advisory Agreement into the Administrative Services Agreement, certain provisions of the Existing Advisory Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as set forth in this Section 6.5.

(e)                                  Any reservation of rights by Advisor under the Existing Advisory Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

33

determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable after the Person potentially entitled to indemnification becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 8.2. With respect to any Indemnity Claim by a Behringer Indemnified Party, Services Holdings shall have sole and exclusive authority to act for and in the name of the Indemnified Party. With respect to any Indemnity Claim by a REIT I Indemnified Party, REIT I shall have sole and exclusive authority to act for and in the name of the Indemnified Party.

(ii)                                  Upon a final determination (by agreement of the Indemnifying Party or a final, non-appealable Judgment) that a payment is due to the Indemnified Party under this Article VIII, and the failure of the Indemnifying Party to pay such obligation within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Indemnifying Party of the respective written demand for indemnification, interest shall accrue at the Federal Funds Rate plus eight percent (8%) per annum on the unpaid amount of the indemnification obligation from the date of such written demand for indemnification until the indemnification obligation is paid in full.

(iii)                               In connection with any Indemnity Claim that results from or arises out of a third-party Claim against an Indemnified Party, the following procedures in this clause (iii) shall apply. Subject to the further provisions of this Section 8.2(d)(iii), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, compromise and settle any third-party Claim in the name of the Indemnified Party to the extent that the Indemnifying Party may be liable to the Indemnified Party in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, compromise or settle any Indemnity Claim (w) to the extent the Indemnified Party would be required to make any payment in connection with such settlement, (x) to the extent that the settlement includes an admission of guilt or wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, (y) to the extent the settlement would provide relief consisting of anything other than money damages, or (z) to the extent that the settlement does not include a provision where the plaintiff or claimant in the matter fully releases the Indemnified Party from all liability; provided, however, that if there exists a material conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate for the Indemnifying Party to assume or control such defense, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel and control the defense, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the Expenses of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together, except (A) to the extent that local counsel are necessary or

34

advisable for the conduct of such action or proceeding, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall also pay the Expenses of any such local counsel, or (B) to the extent that a conflict of interest exists between or among the Indemnified Parties, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Expenses of such additional counsels for the Indemnified Parties as necessary to avoid such conflicts of interest; and provided further, that defense of the Claim and the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party to undertake the defense of the Claim is approved without reservation/qualification by all carriers under potentially available insurance coverage secured by the Indemnified Party and such control of defense by the Indemnifying Party would not adversely affect (in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party) the availability of any such insurance coverage. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2(c)(iii), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such third-party Claim if it notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within 30 days of delivery of the respective Indemnity Claim to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8.2. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes or assumes the defense of a third-party Claim pursuant to this clause, the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party (including as requested by any carriers under potentially available liability insurance coverage secured by the Indemnified Party) fully advised on an ongoing basis of matters material to the defense or settlement of the Claim, including the drafting and filing of motions and responses, the retention of expert witnesses, the taking and defending of depositions, and matters of trial strategy. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such third-party Claim and satisfaction of the conditions thereto, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Article VIII for any Expenses of other counsel or any other Expenses with respect to the defense of such third-party Claim, in each case incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such third-party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party controls the defense of a third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such third-party Claim and to employ its own counsel, and the Expenses of the Indemnified Party (including Expenses of counsel) with respect to such participation shall be at the sole expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall undertake to defend any third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate reasonably with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense against such third-party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party receiving notice of such third-party Claim cannot defend or does not elect to defend such third-party Claim (as allowed hereunder) within the time period specified above, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend such third-party Claim; provided, however, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the Expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties, except (i) to the extent that local counsel are necessary or advisable for the conduct of such action or proceeding, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall also pay the Expenses of any local counsel, or (ii) to the extent that a conflict of interest exists between or among the Indemnified Parties, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Expenses of such additional counsels for the Indemnified Parties as necessary to avoid any such conflicts of interest. The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such third-party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement,

35

compromise or discharge of, or admit any Liability with respect to, such third-party Claim (to the extent that such settlement, compromise or discharge obligates the Indemnifying Party to make any payment) without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(iv)                              The Indemnified Party may at any time notify the Indemnifying Party of its intention to settle or compromise any Claim against the Indemnified Party solely at the Expense of the Indemnified Party without the consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall have no further Liability in respect thereof under this Article VIII or otherwise.

(v)                                 The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to any claims or rights of the Indemnified Party as against any other Persons with respect to any amount paid by the Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII, other than (x) any current or former insurer of any Indemnified Party or (y) in the case of a Behringer Indemnified Party, another Behringer Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party (as reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party) in the assertion by the Indemnifying Party of any such claim (where subrogation has occurred) against such other Persons.

SECTION 8.3                                                  Limitations.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Article VIII) to the contrary:

(a)                                  No amount of Damages shall be payable pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(v) to any Behringer Indemnified Party unless the aggregate amount of all Damages that are indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(v) exceeds $1,500,000 (the “Behringer Deductible”), after which the aggregate amount in excess of the Behringer Deductible shall thereafter be recoverable in accordance with the terms hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that the Behringer Deductible shall be calculated in the aggregate with respect to all Indemnity Claims by the Behringer Indemnified Parties, respectively, pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(v) and not separately.

(b)                                 In no event shall the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Behringer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(v) (but excluding, however, Stockholder Claims) exceed $20,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that such $20,000,000 amount shall be calculated in the aggregate with respect to all Indemnity Claims by the Behringer Indemnified Parties, respectively, pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(v) and not separately.

(c)                                  No amount of Damages shall be payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(v) to any REIT I Indemnified Party unless the aggregate amount of all Damages that are indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(v) exceeds $150,000 (the “REIT I Deductible”), after which the aggregate amount in excess of the REIT I Deductible shall thereafter be recoverable in accordance with the terms hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that the REIT I Deductible shall be calculated in the aggregate

36

with respect to all Indemnity Claims by the REIT I Indemnified Parties, respectively, pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(v) and not separately.

(d)                                 In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be responsible and liable for any Damages or other amounts under this Article VIII that are consequential, in the nature of lost profits, diminution in value, damage to reputation or the like, special or punitive or otherwise not actual Damages..

(e)                                  No Behringer Indemnified Party shall have any right of contribution against REIT I or any of its Affiliates with respect to any breach by a member of the Behringer Group of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements.

(f)                                    The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Article VIII shall be reduced by any related recoveries actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies of the Indemnifying Party or other related payments actually received from third parties other than, in the case of a Behringer Indemnified Party, another Behringer Indemnified Party, and in the case of a REIT I Indemnified Party, another REIT I Indemnified Party. However, and notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, it is agreed that under no circumstances shall any Indemnified Party be required to prosecute any claim or seek payment or coverage under any insurance policy of the Indemnified Party. In addition, all Expenses and Damages incurred by the Behringer Indemnified Parties shall be counted toward satisfaction of the Behringer Deductible even if a Behringer Indemnified Party has received (or may receive) payment or reimbursement thereof under any insurance policy maintained by a Behringer Indemnified Party.

(g)                                 Each party agrees that to the extent any representation or warranty of any other party made in this Agreement is, to the Knowledge of such party on or prior to the Closing Date, untrue or incorrect, such party shall have no rights under this Article VIII by reason of such untruth or inaccuracy.

(h)                                 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall give any Person a right to indemnification under this Agreement with respect to any Damages or Claims to the extent such Damages or Claims arise out of the performance or non-performance of any party under any Ancillary Agreement.

SECTION 8.4                                                  Contribution.

If the indemnification provided for in this Article VIII for any reason is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Damages arising from or relating to a Claim, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying an Indemnified Party hereunder, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party (taking into account all of the transactions and agreements contemplated by this Agreement, which are intended to allow REIT I to become self-managed and to allow the Behringer Parties to continue to receive fees and other amounts pursuant to this Agreement and

37

during the term of the Amended and Restated Property Management Agreement and Administrative Services Agreement) and the Indemnified Party from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable Law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with the action or inaction which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8.4 were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.

SECTION 8.5                                                  Exclusivity.

Except with respect to claims based on actual fraud and subject to Section 8.3(h), the rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Indemnified Parties and their respective Affiliates with respect to any and all Damages or Claims relating to or arising out of or resulting from this Agreement; provided, however, that solely in the case of a Behringer Indemnified Party who is both an individual and a member of the Behringer Group, rights of indemnification under Section 8.2(a)(v) and rights of indemnification under other sources (including rights under any insurance policy, REIT I Organizational Document, indemnification agreement, or Contract) are not mutually exclusive, and if and to the extent that such individual is entitled to indemnification with respect to Damages both under this Agreement and such other source, such individual may pursue such indemnification claims under this Agreement or such other source or both; provided further, however, that any recovery with respect to such indemnification claims shall be limited to the actual amount of such individual’s Damages, regardless of the number of sources on which such individual’s indemnification claims may be based. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the forgoing, (a) any Behringer Indemnified Party may be subrogated to the rights of any other Behringer Indemnified Party with respect to indemnification under this Agreement, including any rights of such subrogating Behringer Indemnified Party to seek indemnification with respect to Damages arising out of the advancement of expenses by such Behringer Indemnified Party to the subrogated Behringer Indemnified Party with respect to Claims for which the subrogated Behringer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, and (b) any REIT I Indemnified Party may be subrogated to the rights of any other REIT I Indemnified Party with respect to indemnification under this Agreement, including any rights of such subrogating REIT I Indemnified Party to seek indemnification with respect to Damages arising out of the advancement of expenses by such REIT I Indemnified Party to the subrogated REIT I Indemnified Party with respect to Claims for which the subrogated REIT I Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

SECTION 8.6                                                  Insurance Coverage.

REIT I shall purchase at or prior to the Closing a six-year prepaid “tail” policy having terms and conditions providing equivalent or more favorable benefits (from the perspective of insured persons other than REIT I) as the liability insurance policies maintained by REIT I as of

38

the Closing for all Persons who are insured persons as of the Closing under such policies with respect to matters arising on or prior to the Closing Date.

ARTICLE IX
GENERAL PROVISIONS

SECTION 9.1                                                  Notices.

Either party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give Notice in writing to the other Party of a change in its address for the purposes of this Section 9.1. The failure of any Party to give notice shall not relieve any other Party of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that such Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

SECTION 9.2                                                  Interpretation.

(a)                                  For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” and the words “such as” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” (ii) the word “or” is not exclusive and (iii) the words “herein”, “hereof”, “here by”, “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole.

Words used herein regardless of the gender specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context requires.

(b)                                 The Schedules and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein. Titles to Articles and headings of Sections are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(c)                                  The REIT I disclosure schedule (the “REIT I Disclosure Schedule”) to this Agreement shall be arranged in sections and subsections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections contained in Article III. The disclosures in any section or subsection of the REIT I Disclosure Schedule shall qualify other sections and subsections in Article III only to the extent it is clear from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other sections and subsections.

(d)                                 The disclosure schedule of the Service Providers (the “Service Provider Disclosure Schedule”) to this Agreement shall be arranged in sections and subsections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections contained in Article IV. The disclosures in any section or subsection of the Service Provider Disclosure Schedule shall qualify other sections and subsections in Article IV only to the extent it is clear from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other sections and subsections.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, and venue for any action brought with respect to any claims arising out of this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in Dallas County, Texas.

SECTION 9.4                                                  Disputes.

If there shall be a dispute between REIT I and/or BH OP, on the one hand, and any member of the Behringer Group, on the other, relating to this Agreement or the Transactions resulting in litigation or arbitration, the prevailing party in such litigation or arbitration shall be entitled to recover from the other party to such proceeding such amount as the court or arbitrator shall fix as reasonable attorneys’ fees.

SECTION 9.5                                                  Entire Agreement.

This Agreement and the Exhibits and Annexes referred to herein and the documents delivered pursuant hereto and the Disclosure Schedules, contain the entire understanding of the Parties with regard to the subject matter contained herein or therein, and supersede all prior agreements, understandings or letters of intent between or among the Parties, inducements and

41

conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 9.6                                                  Amendment.

This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of REIT I (as authorized by the REIT I Board or an applicable committee thereof) and each of Services Holdings and the Service Providers and in compliance with applicable Law.

SECTION 9.7                                                  Waiver.

(a)                                  REIT I (as authorized by the REIT I Board or an applicable committee thereof) may (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of Services Holdings or the Service Providers hereunder, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of such Persons contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein to be complied with or satisfied by such Persons.

Any agreement on the part of Services Holdings to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Services Holdings.

(c)                                  Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

SECTION 9.8                                                  Remedies.

Neither any failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right and no single or partial exercise of any such right will preclude any other or further exercise of such, or any other, right. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties hereto will be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. The Parties agree that money damages or other remedy at law would not be sufficient or adequate remedy for any breach or violation of, or default under, this Agreement by them and that in addition to all other remedies available to them at law or in equity, each of them shall be entitled to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law to an

42

injunction restraining such breach, violation or default and to other equitable relief, including, without limitation, specific performance, with a bond or other form of security not being required and specifically waived by the Parties.

SECTION 9.9                                                  Severability.

In case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating or affecting the remainder of such provision or provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid, legal and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision.

SECTION 9.10                                            Relationship of REIT I and the Behringer Group.

Neither REIT I nor BH OP is a partner or joint venturer with any member of the Behringer Group, 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. The obligations of the members of the Behringer Group pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed to preclude any such Person from engaging in other activities or business ventures, whether or not such other activities or ventures are in competition with REIT I or BH OP or the business of REIT I or BH OP.

SECTION 9.11                                            Further Assurances.

The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to do and perform or cause to be done and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments or documents as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the consummation of the Transactions. Without the consent of Services Holdings, REIT I shall not and shall not allow any of its Affiliates to take any voluntary action or actions, or fail to take any action or actions, in each case, for the purpose of avoiding or seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or with respect to the Transactions.

SECTION 9.12                                            LIMITATIONS ON REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

(a)                                  REIT I ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ARTICLE IV, NONE OF SERVICES HOLDINGS, THE SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR ANY MEMBER OF THE BEHRINGER GROUP MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH OR WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR IN

2.07        Relationship with Directors.  Directors, officers and employees of the Advisor or an Affiliate of the Advisor may serve as Directors, officers or employees of the Company, except that no director, officer or employee of the Advisor or its Affiliates who also is a Director shall receive any compensation from the Company for serving as a Director other than reasonable reimbursement for travel and related expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board.

2.08        Other Activities of the Advisor.  Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor or its Affiliates from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other 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.  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.  The Advisor or its Affiliates shall promptly disclose to the Board knowledge of such condition or circumstance.  If the Sponsor, 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, it shall be the duty of the Board (including the Independent Directors) to adopt the method set forth in the Company’s most recent Prospectus for its Shares or another reasonable method by which investments are to be allocated to the competing investment entities and to use their best efforts to apply such method fairly to the Company.

ARTICLE III.

COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT OF SPECIFIED COSTS.

3.01        Fees.

(a)           Asset Management Fee.  The Company shall pay the Advisor a monthly Asset Management Fee of (i) with respect to operating Assets, 0.6% of the Aggregate Assets Value for such operating Assets (including any debt attributable to the Assets), payable on the 15th day of each month in an amount equal to 1/12th of 0.6% of the Aggregate Assets Value for such operating Assets as of the last day of the immediately preceding month, and (ii) with respect to development or redevelopment Assets, 0.6% of the Contract Purchase Price (including any debt attributable to the Assets and any budgeted improvement costs therefor) for such development or redevelopment Assets, payable on the 15th day of each month in an amount equal to 1/12th of 0.6% of the total Contract Purchase Price for such development or redevelopment Assets as of the date such amount is determinable.  In any given month, in no event shall the Advisor be paid Asset Management Fees pursuant to both clause (i) and clause (ii) of this Section 3.01(a) with respect to the same Asset.

A-14

(b)           Acquisition and Advisory Fees.  The Company shall pay the Advisor an Acquisition and Advisory Fee in an amount equal to (i) with respect to each Asset acquired directly by the Company, 2.5% of the Contract Purchase Price of such Asset and (ii) with respect to each Asset acquired indirectly by the Company through one or more of its Affiliates or Joint Ventures, 2.5% of the Contract Purchase Price of such Asset multiplied by the Company’s percentage equity interest in such Affiliates or Joint Ventures, in each case payable at the time and in respect of the funds expended for (A) the acquisition of such Asset (including any debt attributable to the Asset), (B) to the extent that such funds are capitalized, for the development, construction or improvement of such Asset (including any debt attributable to the Asset) or (C) the making of a Mortgage; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company pay the Advisor Acquisition and Advisory Fees with respect to any temporary investment in Assets.  The Acquisition and Advisory Fees include reimbursements of allocable wages and compensation of employees of the Advisor and its Affiliates and third-party expenses.  The total of all Acquisition Fees and any Acquisition Expenses shall be limited in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation.

(c)           [Reserved]

(d)           Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds.  Prior to Listing but after the Stockholders have received total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital and Stockholders’ 9% Return, upon the consummation of any Sale, the Advisor shall receive a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds in an amount equal to 15% of Net Sales Proceeds less the amount by which the Company’s debt for borrowed money exceeds the aggregate book value of the Company’s assets after the sale of the Asset(s) in respect of which the Net Sales Proceeds is being determined.

Following Listing, and as soon as practicable after determination of Market Value, if the Stockholders have received or been deemed to have received total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital and Stockholders’ 9% Return through the date of Listing, the Advisor shall receive a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds in an amount equal to 15% of Net Sales Proceeds less the amount by which the Company’s debt for borrowed money exceeds the aggregate book value of the Company’s assets after the sale of the Asset(s) in respect of which the Net Sales Proceeds is being determined.  For purposes of this subparagraph (d), in determining whether the Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds is payable following Listing, in addition to actual Distributions received, Stockholders will be deemed to have received Distributions in the amount equal to the Market Value.

(e)           Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee.  Following Listing, and as soon as practicable after determination of Market Value, the Advisor shall be entitled to receive a Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee payable in the form of an interest bearing promissory note (the “SILF Note”) in a principal amount equal to 15% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the outstanding Shares, measured by taking the Market Value, plus the total of all Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company’s inception until the date of 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’ 9%

A-15

Return from inception through the date of Listing.  Interest on the SILF Note will accrue beginning on the date of Listing at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Independent Directors on the date of Listing.  The Company shall repay the SILF Note using the entire Net Sales Proceeds of each Sale after Listing until the SILF Note is paid in full, with interest.  If the SILF Note has not been paid in full within five years from the date of Listing, then the Advisor, its successors or assigns, may elect to convert the balance of the SILF Note, 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 SILF 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.  The principal amount of the SILF Note shall be referred to as “Subordinated Disposition Fees.”

(f)            Debt Financing Fee.  In the event of the origination of any debt financing obtained by or for the Company (including any refinancing or assumption of debt), the Company will pay to the Advisor a debt financing fee equal to one percent (1%) of the amount available under such financing.  The Debt Financing Fee includes the reimbursement of the specified cost incurred by the Advisor of engaging third parties to source debt financing, and nothing herein shall prevent the Advisor from entering fee-splitting arrangements with third parties with respect to the Debt Financing Fee.

(g)           Limitations on Payments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments shall be made under Sections 3.01(d), 3.01(e), 4.03(b) or 4.03(c) if, at or prior to the time the payment is due, the Convertible Shares have been converted into Shares in the case of Sections 3.01(d) and 3.01(e), or, in the case of Sections 4.03(b) and 4.03(c), the determination of the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares has been made in accordance with Article First, Section (iii)(c) of the Articles Supplementary, dated as of March 22, 2006, to the Articles of Incorporation, in each case, without any reduction in the number of Convertible Shares converted or in the value or number of Shares to be issued upon such conversion that may be triggered under the terms of the Convertible Shares to avoid jeopardizing the Company’s REIT status.  If, however, the Convertible Shares have been converted into Shares in the case of Sections 3.01(d) and 3.01(e), or, in the case of Sections 4.03(b) and 4.03(c), the determination of the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares has been made in accordance with Article First, Section (iii)(c) of the Articles Supplementary, dated as of March 22, 2006, to the Articles of Incorporation, in each case, with a reduction in the number of Convertible Shares converted or in the value or number of Shares issued upon such conversion triggered under the terms of the Convertible Shares to avoid jeopardizing the Company’s REIT status, (i) no payments otherwise due and payable under Section 3.01(d) (“Offset Payments”) shall be paid until the aggregate amount of such Offset Payments equals the aggregate value of the Shares (as determined at the time of such conversion as being the Company Value divided by the number of Shares outstanding at such time) issued or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares, and (ii) any payments otherwise due and payable under Section 3.01(e), 4.03(b) or 4.03(c) shall be reduced, dollar-for-dollar, by an amount equal to the aggregate value of the Shares (as

A-16

determined at the time of such conversion as being the Company Value divided by the number of Shares outstanding at such time) issued or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Shares.

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 for the specified cost of all 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 reimbursement received by the Advisor pursuant to this Section 3.02, to the extent that such reimbursement exceeds 1.5% of the Gross Proceeds (2.0% for Offerings conducted prior to the date hereof but after February 19, 2005, and 2.5% for Offerings conducted prior to February 19, 2005) exclusive of Gross Proceeds from shares sold under the Company’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan.  The Advisor shall be responsible for the payment of all Organization and Offering Expenses in excess of 1.5% of the Gross Proceeds (2.0% for Offerings conducted prior to the date hereof but after February 19, 2005, and 2.5% for Offerings conducted prior to February 19, 2005) exclusive of Gross Proceeds from shares sold under the Company’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan;

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

(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 or other securities;

(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;

A-17

(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, Listing and registration fees, and other Organization and Offering Expenses;

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

(xi)           expenses of organizing, revising, amending, converting, modifying, or terminating the Company or the Articles of Incorporation;

(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 personnel costs; provided, however, that no reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel to the extent that such personnel perform services in transactions for which the Advisor receives a separate fee); and

(xiv)        audit, accounting and legal fees.

(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 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.

3.04        Reimbursement to the Advisor.  The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor for Total Operating Expenses to the extent that Total Operating Expenses (including the Asset Management Fee), in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income for such year.  Any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company.  Reimbursement of all or any portion of the Total Operating Expenses that exceed the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence may, at the option of the Advisor, be deferred without interest and may be reimbursed in any subsequent Expense Year where such limitation would permit such reimbursement if the Total Operating Expense were incurred during such period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is an Excess Amount in any Expense Year

A-18

and the Independent Directors determine that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, the Excess Amount may be reimbursed to the Advisor.  Within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which there is an Excess Amount which the Independent Directors conclude was justified and reimbursable to the Advisor, 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 Amount was justified.  Such determination shall be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board.  The Company will not reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates for services for which the Advisor or its Affiliates are entitled to compensation in the form of a separate fee.  All figures used in any computation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

3.05        Audit of Advisor Payments.  It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to the applicable provisions hereof as to fees, reimbursements and any other amounts (the “Advisor Payments”) to be paid to the Advisor hereunder.  However, at any time, either party shall have the right, upon reasonable written notice, to engage a separate audit, on a confidential basis, of its own and the other party’s records, books and accounts in respect of Advisor Payments to ascertain whether the Advisor Payments were properly determined and paid.  An audit may be engaged only once in any 12-month period regardless of which party engages the audit.  Any such audit shall be conducted by an independent certified public accounting firm of recognized national standing designated by the party requesting the audit (the “Requesting Party’”), other than the then current auditor of its or any of its Affiliates’ financial statements, and shall be conducted during regular business hours and in such a manner so as not to interfere with the Company’s or the Advisor’s regular business activities.  The Requesting Party shall bear the costs of the audit unless the audit conclusively reveals an underpayment or overpayment of Advisor Payments adverse to the Requesting Party in an amount greater than 10% of the total amount of Advisor Payments owed for the period being inspected, in which case the other party shall bear the costs of the audit.  Any auditor who is engaged to perform an audit shall not be compensated on a contingent basis or any other basis that would tend to give the auditor an interest in the outcome of the audit, and the auditor shall perform its audit on an impartial basis and certify in writing as such.  If the audit conclusively reveals an overpayment or underpayment of Advisor Payments, the Company or the Advisor shall promptly pay to the other party the amount of the overpayment or underpayment, as the case may be, without interest; provided, however, that in the event that the audit conclusively reveals an overpayment of Advisor Payments and the Advisor has at any time previously waived or forgiven in writing any Advisor Payments that it would otherwise have been entitled to hereunder, the Company shall credit against the overpayment any amounts previously waived or forgiven, without interest, and the Advisor shall not be obligated to repay the Company to the extent that the overpayments do not exceed the aggregate of the waived or forgiven amounts not already so credited.  Any underpayment or overpayment under this Agreement shall not be a breach of this Agreement unless and until an audit performed in accordance with this Section 3.05 is completed and the party who may be obligated to make a payment hereunder as a result of such audit shall have failed to promptly make any required payment.

ARTICLE IV.

TERM AND TERMINATION

4.01        Term; Renewal.  Subject to Section 4.02 hereof, this Agreement 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 duty of the Board 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.

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).  Upon termination, the SILF Note shall become immediately due and payable and shall be promptly paid by the Company.  In the event the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no Performance Fee will be paid to the Advisor pursuant to Sections 4.03(b) or (c) below.

(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 Performance Fee payable in the form of an interest bearing promissory note (the “Performance Fee Note”) in a principal amount equal to the product of 0.15 times the amount, if any, by which (i) the Company Value plus the total Distributions paid to holders of Shares through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) the sum of the aggregate Invested Capital plus the Stockholders’ 9% Return through the Termination Date.  Interest on the Performance Fee Note will accrue beginning on the Termination Date at a rate deemed fair and reasonable by the Independent Directors.  The Company shall repay the Performance Fee Note using the entire Net Sales Proceeds of each Sale after the Termination Date until the Performance Fee Note is paid in full, with interest.  If the Performance Fee Note 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 Performance Fee Note, including accrued but unpaid interest, into Shares at a price per Share equal to the average Closing Price of

A-20

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 Performance Fee Note, 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.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, if termination occurs upon a Change of Control, the Advisor shall be entitled to payment of a Performance Fee equal to the product of 0.15 times the amount, if any, by which (i) the Company Value plus the total Distributions paid to holders of Shares through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) the sum of the aggregate Invested Capital plus the Stockholders’ 9% Return.  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 Note 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 and the Company.  If the Advisor and the Company are unable to agree upon an expert independent appraiser, then each of the Company and the Advisor shall name one appraiser and the two named appraisers shall promptly agree in good faith to the appointment of one such appraiser whose determination shall be final and binding on the parties.  The cost of such appraisal shall be shared evenly between the Company and the Advisor.

(e)           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 the Company and take all reasonable actions requested by the Company to provide an orderly management transition.

ARTICLE V.
INDEMNIFICATION

5.01        Indemnification by the Company.  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and

A-21

employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland, the Articles of Incorporation and the NASAA Guidelines.  The foregoing indemnity shall extend, without limitation, to any claims to the extent relating to any of the events or outcomes set forth in the Prospectus as possible results, outcomes or risks associated with the business and investment objectives of the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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.  Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and not from Stockholders.

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 such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, misfeasance, misconduct, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties, but 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.

ARTICLE VI.
MISCELLANEOUS

6.01        Assignment to an Affiliate.  This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate of the Advisor with the approval of a majority of the Board (including a majority of the Independent Directors).  The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Board.  This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the Company to a corporation or other organization which is a successor to all of the assets, rights and obligations of the Company, in which case such successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Company is bound by this Agreement.  This Agreement shall be binding on successors to the Company resulting from a Change of Control or sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company or the Partnership, and shall likewise be binding upon any successor to the Advisor.

6.02        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.

6.03        Treatment Under Texas Margin Tax.  For purposes of the Texas margin tax, the Advisor’s performance of the services specified in this Agreement will cause the Advisor to conduct part of the active trade or business of the Company, and the compensation specified in Article III includes both the payment of management fees and the reimbursement of specified costs incurred in the Advisor’s conduct of the active trade or business of the Company.  Therefore, the Advisor and Company intend Advisor to be, and shall treat Advisor as, a “management company” within the meaning of Section 171.0001(11) of the Texas Tax Code.

A-22

The Company and the Advisor will apply Sections 171.1011(m-1) and 171.1013(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code to the Company’s reimbursements paid to the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement of specified costs and wages and compensation.  The Advisor and the Company further recognize and intend that (i) as a result of the fiduciary relationship created by this Agreement and acknowledged in Section 2.02, reimbursements paid to the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement are “flow-though funds” that the Advisor is mandated by law or fiduciary duty to distribute, within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f) of the Texas Tax Code, and (ii) as a result of Advisor’s contractual duties under this Agreement, certain reimbursements under this Agreement are “flow-through funds” mandated by contract to be distributed within the meaning of Section 171.1011(g) of the Texas Tax Code.  The terms of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the characterization of the Advisor as a “management company” as defined in Section 171.0001(11), and with the characterization of the reimbursements as “flow-though funds” within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code.

6.04        Notices.  Any notice, report or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing unless some other method of giving such notice, report or other communication is required by the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, or accepted by the party to whom it is given, and shall be given by being delivered by hand or by overnight mail or other overnight delivery service to the addresses set forth herein:

Either party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give notice in writing to the other party of a change in its address for the purposes of this Section 6.03.

6.05        Modification.  This Agreement shall not be changed, modified, or amended, in whole or in part, except by an instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto, or their respective successors or assignees.

6.06        Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and severable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

6.07        Choice of Law; Venue.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, and venue for any action brought with respect to any claims arising out of this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in Dallas County, Texas.

A-23

6.08        Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof.  The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.  This Agreement may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.

6.09        Waiver.  Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence.  No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

6.10        Gender; Number.  Words used herein regardless of the number and gender specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other number, singular or plural, and any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context requires.

6.11        Headings.  The titles and headings of sections and subsections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only, and they neither form a part of this Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation hereof.

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

B-3

of its Affiliates or, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 2.01(d), third Persons to provide to the Company, the Administrative Services in the manner and at the locations and level of service (including with respect to timing and priority) consistent with past practice and with the same standard of care as historically provided (for the respective Administrative Service) under the Advisory Agreement.  In connection with providing the Administrative Services, the Service Provider shall at all times during the term of this Agreement remain in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent there is a change to such laws, rules or regulations relating to the Administrative Services (whether identified by the Service Provider or the Company), all required changes to the Administrative Services resulting from such change in law will be considered as within the scope of the Administrative Services.

(c)                                  The Service Provider and its Affiliates provide software programs for utilization by the Company in the performance of certain Administrative Services.  If a vendor of any such software programs (or services) alleges that use of such software (or services) by the Company is not permitted under the terms of the applicable license agreement (or other agreement), the Service Provider shall give written notice thereof to the Company whereupon the Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate, and the Company shall cooperate with such negotiation, with such vendor for the Company’s continued use of such software (or services) or make such other alternative arrangements to enable the continued provision of the respective Administrative Service or portion thereof in accordance with this Agreement.

(d)                                 In addition to such employees of the Service Provider and its Affiliates that may be used to perform any of the Administrative Services, the Service Provider may retain any reputable third Person qualified to perform such Administrative Service or portion thereof (each, a “Subcontractor”) to assist the Service Provider in the performance of any of the Administrative Services, or to perform a particular Administrative Service or portion thereof, (i) without obtaining the consent of the Company, if the Service Provider pays the costs and reimbursable expenses of such Subcontractor and does not seek reimbursement from the Company for the costs and reimbursable expenses of such Subcontractor and (ii) after obtaining the prior written consent of the Company, if the costs and reimbursable expenses of such Subcontractor are to be paid directly by the Company or if the Service Provider is to be reimbursed by the Company for the costs and reimbursable expenses of such Subcontractor pursuant to Section 3.01(a).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Service Provider currently retains a Subcontractor and such Subcontractor is listed on Schedule 2.01(d) attached hereto or provided less than $10,000 in costs and expenses during the last twelve months  (each, an “Existing Subcontractor”), no consent of the Company will be required.  All Existing Subcontractors that account for costs and expenses in excess of $10,000 per annum are set forth on Schedule 2.01(d) attached hereto.  The Service Provider shall remain fully liable for all of the acts and omissions of each Subcontractor and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates for any claims arising out of or in connection with such acts or omissions, in each case pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement and as if the Service Provider itself were providing the subject Administrative Service or portion thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, no consent of the Company will

B-4

be required prior to the Service Provider causing any of its Affiliates or any of its or its Affiliates employed or contract personnel to perform any of the Administrative Services.

(e)                                  The Service Provider and its Affiliates shall have the right to shut down temporarily for maintenance purposes the operation of any facilities or systems providing or used to provide any Administrative Service consistent with past practice.  The Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to schedule any shutdown during the hours of 7:00 am and 6:00 pm Central Time, to minimize periods of unscheduled shutdown, to schedule each shutdown so as to minimize the disruption to the business operations of the Company and to give the Company sufficient advance notice of any shutdown.  With respect to the Administrative Services dependent on the operation of such facilities or systems, the Service Provider shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to provide such Administrative Services during the period that such facilities or systems are so shut down in compliance with this Agreement.

(f)                                   The Service Provider may modify an Administrative Service, including, without limitation, by implementing changes to the software or other information technology used to provide such Administrative Service, to the extent the same modification (including with respect to the scope, timing and quality of such Administrative Service) is made with respect to the Service Provider or its provision of such Administrative Service to Other Service Recipients consistent with past practice.  The Service Provider shall notify the Company of any such modification in advance.  The Service Provider’s responsibilities with respect to such Administrative Service shall be amended as necessary to conform to any such modification made pursuant to this Section 2.01(f).  If the Company requests that the Service Provider make a custom modification in connection with any Administrative Service, or otherwise alter the manner or level of service from past practice under the Advisory Agreement, and the Service Provider agrees to make such modification, the Company will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by the Service Provider and its Affiliates with respect thereto.  If at any time the Service Provider is unable to provide any Administrative Service to the Company, the Service Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resume the provision of such Administrative Service.

2.02                        Company’s Obligations.  The Company shall, as necessary to enable the provision of the Administrative Services by the Service Provider and its Affiliates and designees, use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) provide timely responses to any information requested by the Service Provider and its Affiliates and designees; (b) provide access to the Company’s facilities, employees, assets and information and records regarding employment and personnel matters as requested by the Service Provider and its Affiliates and designees; and (c) obtain and maintain all hardware and other equipment, leases and contracts.  The Service Provider and its Affiliates and designees, when on the property of the Company or when given access to any equipment, computer, software, network or files owned or controlled by the Company, will conform to, and abide by, the reasonable policies and procedures of the Company concerning health, safety and security which have been made known to the Service Provider or its applicable Affiliates or designees in advance or which were applicable to the provision of such Administrative Service prior to the Effective Date.  The Service Provider and its Affiliates and designees shall be entitled to rely on any instructions or other information provided by

B-5

authorized personnel designated by the Company, and the Service Provider shall not be in breach of or in default under this Agreement as a result of any such reliance and shall not have any liability for acting in accordance with such instructions.

2.03                        Exclusivity.

(a)                                 Other than pursuant hereto, the Company shall not contract with any Person to perform any Core Service prior to the date of termination of the respective Core Service, each Core Service being provided under this Agreement on an exclusive basis.  However, the Company may hire personnel to perform any Core Service with prior written notice to the Service Provider and if such personnel do not adversely affect the Service Provider’s cost or ability to provide in any material respect any Core Service.

(b)                                 The Company may hire personnel or contract with any Person at any time to provide any Non-Core Service; provided, however, that if the retention of such Person would adversely affect the Service Provider’s ability to provide in any material respect, or increase the Service Provider’s cost to provide, any Core Service (in the good faith judgment of the Services Provider), the prior written consent of the Service Provider shall be required, which consent may be withheld or granted in Service Provider’s sole discretion, however the withholding or granting of such consent shall not be unreasonably delayed.

(c)                                  The Company shall provide the Service Provider with no less than 20 days advance notice of its intention to retain any Person to provide any Non-Core Service other than Information Management, Cash Management, Marketing or Risk Management (subject to the Company providing notice to the Service Provider of such retention and cooperating with the Service Provider as provided in the Property Management Agreement), in each case as set forth on Annex A, and shall promptly provide the Service Provider with any reasonably requested information concerning such proposed engagement.  The Service Provider may, within 10 days following such notice and delivery of all such reasonably requested information, determine to cease providing all or part of such Non-Core Service which would remain to be provided hereunder.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the Service Provider determines not to provide all or any part of any Non-Core Service, the Company may retain any Person to provide such portion of such Non-Core Service immediately upon such determination.

2.04                        Other Activities of the Service Provider.

(a)                                 Nothing herein contained shall, consistent with past practice, (a) prevent the Service Provider or its Affiliates from engaging in other activities, including, the rendering of advice or services to Other Service Recipients; (b) limit or restrict the right of any director, manager, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Service Provider or its Affiliates to engage in any other business or to render advice or services of any kind to any other Person; or (c), with respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein.

(d)                                 In connection with any termination, in addition to any Other Costs, the Company shall reimburse the Service Provider for all Exit Costs; provided, however, that the Exit Costs for the Administrative Services (taken as a whole) shall not exceed $350,000; provided, further, however, that the Service Provider shall not be responsible for, and the Company shall reimburse the Service Provider for, all Exit Costs (i) with respect to arrangements or contracts the entry into which the Company has previously consented in writing after the date of this Agreement (other than arrangements or contracts or amendments or modifications thereto (other than the arrangement with DST Systems referenced in clause (ii) below) in existence as of the date of this Agreement that are renewed or replaced on the same terms and conditions with respect to Exit Costs), which consent may be withheld or granted in the Company’s sole discretion; and (ii)

ARTICLE V.

INFORMATION SECURITY, CONFIDENTIALITY AND DISASTER RECOVERY

5.01                        Company Materials.

(a)                                  The Service Provider will take commercially reasonable measures designed to maintain the security of Company Materials consistent with past practice and agrees to comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the privacy and security of stored or transmitted (whether electronically or otherwise) personal information to the extent such laws are applicable to such party in connection with this Agreement.

(b)                                 For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Materials” shall mean all data, information, images, text, content or materials (in whatever form or media) that: (i) is supplied to the Service Provider by, or on behalf of, the Company hereunder, or (ii) the Company makes accessible to the Service Provider in connection with the Administrative Services, including: (A) any Personal Information (as defined on Annex B); (B) the Company’s standard materials and derivations thereof and other material related thereto; (C) the Company’s methodologies, techniques, templates, flowcharts, architecture designs, tools, specifications, standard materials, practices, processes, inventions, formulae, models, samples, records and documentation, concepts and know-

5.02                        Confidentiality.

(a)                                  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means all business information disclosed by one party to the other in connection with this Agreement, and includes, the terms of this Agreement and all information clearly identified in writing as confidential by the disclosing party prior to or at the time of disclosure of such information to the other party.  Each party’s Confidential Information may include trade secrets and proprietary property of, and may have great commercial value to, such party.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s Confidential Information includes the Company Materials and any information relating to the Company’s use of the Administrative Services.  Confidential Information does not include information the receiving party can document: (i) is already in the receiving party’s possession, provided that such information is not known by the receiving party to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to the providing party, (ii) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party, (iii) becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the providing party, provided that such source is not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to the providing party, or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or reference to information from the providing party.

(b)                                 By virtue of this Agreement, either party may have access to Confidential Information of the other party.  The parties agree to hold each other’s Confidential Information in confidence and be bound by the obligations set forth in this Article V during the term of this Agreement and for a period of 2 years thereafter and in perpetuity in respect of Personal Information.  The receiving party agrees not to make the disclosing party’s Confidential Information available in any form to any third party or directly or indirectly, communicate, publish, display, loan, give or otherwise disclose any Confidential Information, or permit access to or possession of such Confidential Information, other than as necessary for its performance under this Agreement, unless, and only to the minimum extent, required by law or to satisfy governmental regulatory requirements (in which case the party seeking to make such disclosure shall notify the other party of its intent to make such disclosure, and, to the maximum extent available, such party shall seek protective treatment for such disclosed Confidential Information), or to use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information for any purpose beyond the scope of this Agreement.  In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 5.01 and the Annex B, each party agrees to take all reasonable steps to ensure that the other party’s Confidential Information is not disclosed or distributed by its employees, contractors or agents in violation of the terms of this Agreement.

B-12

(c)                                  In the event of any breach of these confidentiality terms by a receiving party, the parties acknowledge that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for damages suffered by the disclosing party, and the disclosing party may be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunctions or orders for specific performance, in an action instituted in any court having subject matter jurisdiction, in addition to all other remedies available to the disclosing party with respect thereto at law.  A party’s pursuit of or obtaining equitable relief in the event of a breach of this Agreement shall not preclude that party from recovering damages from the breaching party subject to the terms of this Agreement.

5.03                        Return and Destruction of Information.  Promptly after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, or, if applicable, the Post-Termination Services: (a) all the Company’s Confidential Information (including any Company Materials) in the Service Provider’s possession or control shall be returned to the Company by the Service Provider or, at the Company’s request, be destroyed; provided, however, that, subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth herein, the Service Provider may retain (and will not be obliged to erase, or destroy) one electronic copy of any Confidential Information created as a result of automatic electronic back-up procedures; (b) all electronic copies of the Company’s Confidential Information (including any Company Materials) in the Service Provider’s possession or control shall be deleted in a manner that makes the Confidential Information non-readable and non-retrievable; and (c) the Service Provider will certify to the Company, in writing, that the Service Provider has complied with its obligations under this Section 5.03; provided, however, that in each case the return, destruction or deletion of such Company Materials other than Personal Information (except Personal Information that must be retained by the Service Provider in accordance with applicable laws) shall be subject to the Service Provider’s document retention policy as in effect on the date hereof, and that the Service Provider may retain one copy of the Company Materials solely to the extent required to support the Service Charges and for tax and accounting purposes.  Notwithstanding any such return, destruction, deletion or retention of the Company’s Confidential Information, the agreements and obligations of the Service Provider under Section 5.02 shall remain unaffected thereby.

5.04                        Disaster Recovery Plan.  The Service Provider shall maintain a written disaster recovery plan (the “Disaster Recovery Plan”), a copy of which will be provided to the Company promptly upon availability, designed to ensure the continuing provision of the Administrative Services in accordance with this Agreement, notwithstanding any disaster or event which would otherwise adversely affect the provision of the Administrative Services.  The Disaster Recovery Plan, which may change from time to time, is available upon request from the Service Provider consistent with past practice.  The Service Provider shall bear any costs associated the Disaster Recovery Plan.

B-13

to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service Provider shall not be entitled to indemnification or be held harmless pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any activity which the Service Provider shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to Section 5.02.  Any indemnification of the Service Provider may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and not from stockholders of the Company.

6.02                        Indemnification by Service Provider.  The Service Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, managers, partners and employees, from contract or other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys’ fees, to the extent that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Service Provider’s bad faith, fraud, misfeasance, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement.

6.03                        Limitation on Liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company agrees that the Service Provider will not be liable to the Company, whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), warranty or any other legal or equitable grounds, for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential losses, damages or expenses of the Company.

ARTICLE VII.
MISCELLANEOUS

7.01                        Assignment to an Affiliate.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, transferred, delegated or otherwise disposed of (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, directly or indirectly, by operation of law, merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise), by the Service Provider without the prior written consent of the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Service Provider may, without the prior consent of the Company, assign, transfer, delegate or otherwise dispose of, this Agreement, or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of Behringer Harvard Holdings, LLC, in whole or in part; provided, however, that such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of Behringer Harvard Holdings, LLC at all times following such assignment, transfer, delegation or other disposition and, if this Agreement is in whole assigned, transferred, delegated or disposed to such an Affiliate, signs a joinder agreement and is bound hereunder, but no such assignment, transfer, delegation or other disposition shall relieve the Service Provider of any of its obligations hereunder, (b) the Service Provider may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Company, and (c) this Section 7.01 shall not restrict a Change of Control of Behringer Harvard Holdings, LLC.   Any purported assignment, transfer, delegation or disposition by the Service Provider in violation of this Section 7.01 shall be null and void ab initio.

B-14

7.03                        Treatment Under Texas Margin Tax.  For purposes of the Texas margin tax, the Service Provider’s performance of the services specified in this Agreement will cause the Service Provider to conduct part of the active trade or business of the Company, and the compensation specified in Article III includes both the payment of management fees and the reimbursement of specified costs incurred in the Service Provider’s conduct of the active trade or business of the Company.  Therefore, the Service Provider and Company intend the Service Provider to be, and shall treat the Service Provider as, a “management company” within the meaning of Section 171.0001(11) of the Texas Tax Code.  The Company and the Service Provider will apply Sections 171.1011(m-1) and 171.1013(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code to the Company’s reimbursements paid to the Service Provider pursuant to this Agreement of specified costs and wages and compensation.  The Service Provider and the Company further recognize and intend that (i) as a result of the relationship created by this Agreement, reimbursements paid to the Service Provider pursuant to this Agreement are “flow-though funds” that the Service Provider is mandated by law or fiduciary duty to distribute, within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f) of the Texas Tax Code, and (ii) as a result of the Service Provider’s contractual duties under this Agreement, certain reimbursements under this Agreement are “flow-through funds” mandated by contract to be distributed within the meaning of Section 171.1011(g) of the Texas Tax Code.  The terms of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the characterization of the Service Provider as a “management company” as defined in Section 171.0001(11), and with the characterization of the reimbursements as “flow-though funds” within the meaning of Section 171.1011(f)-(g) of the Texas Tax Code.

7.04                        Notices.  Any notice, report, approval, waiver, consent or other communication (each, a “Notice”) required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given or delivered: (i) when delivered personally; (ii) one business day following deposit with a recognized overnight courier service that obtains a receipt, provided such receipt is obtained, and provided further that the deposit occurs prior to the deadline imposed by such service for overnight delivery; (iii) when transmitted, if sent by electronic mail, provided a read receipt is delivered to the sender, in each case provided such communication is addressed to the intended recipient thereof as set forth below:

B-15

Either party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give Notice in writing to the other party of a change in its address for the purposes of this Section 7.04.  The failure of any Party to give notice shall not relieve any other Party of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that such Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

7.06                        Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and severable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

7.07                        Choice of Law; Venue.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, and venue for any action brought with respect to any claims arising out of this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in Dallas County, Texas.

7.08                        Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof.  The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.

7.09                        Waiver.  Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence.  No

B-16

waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

7.10                        Interpretation.  The words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, and the words “such as”, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  The terms “hereof,” “hereunder,” “herein” and words of similar import shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties, and consequently this Agreement shall be interpreted without reference to any rule or precept of law to the effect that any ambiguity in a document be construed against the drafter.

7.14                        Facsimile Signatures.  A facsimile or other electronic signature on the signature pages hereto shall for all purposes be deemed an original and shall bind the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as if such facsimile or other electronic signature were an original.

7.15                        Non-Solicitation.  Subject to Section 2.2 of the Modification Agreement, during the period commencing on the date on which this Agreement is entered into and ending one year following the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the Service Provider’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit or encourage any person to leave the employment or other service of the Service Provider or its Affiliates or (ii) hire, on behalf of the Company or any other person or entity, any person who has left the employment or service within the one year period following the termination of that person’s employment or service with the Service Provider or its Affiliates.  During the period commencing on the date hereof through and ending one year following the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not, whether for its own account or for the account of any other Person, intentionally interfere with the relationship of the Service Provider or its Affiliates, or endeavor to entice away from the Service Provider or its Affiliates, any person who during the term of the Agreement is, or during the preceding one-year period was, a customer of the Service Provider or its Affiliates.  Upon the termination of any Administrative Service pursuant to Section 4.2(a), Service Provider shall waive the non-solicitation and non-hire provisions of this Section 7.15 with respect to any employee of Service Provider or any of its Affiliates providing such Administrative Service

7.17                        No Presumption Against Drafter.  Each of the parties has jointly participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by each of the parties, and no presumptions or burdens of proof shall arise favoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
