OTHER SERVICES
Should (i) the Company request that the Advisor or any manager, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company and the Operating Partnership other than as set forth in this Agreement or (ii) there are changes to the regulatory environment in which the Advisor, Company or the Operating Partnership operates that would increase significantly the level of services performed such that the costs and expenses borne by the Advisor for which the Advisor is not entitled to separate reimbursement for personnel and related employment direct costs and overhead under Article 10 of this Agreement would increase significantly, 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 Charter, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 12
RELATIONSHIP OF ADVISOR, COMPANY AND OPERATING PARTNERSHIP; OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ADVISOR
12.1.Relationship. To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Company, the Operating Partnership 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. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons 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 manager, director, officer, employee, or equityholder 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 and/or the Operating Partnership is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor shall promptly disclose to the Board of Directors 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 the Operating Partnership and its obligations to or its interest in any other Person.
12.2.Time Commitment. The Advisor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective employees, officers and agents to, devote to the Company and the Operating Partnership such time as shall be reasonably necessary to conduct the business and affairs of the Company and the Operating Partnership in an appropriate manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that the Advisor and other Affiliates of ▇▇▇▇▇ and their respective employees, officers and agents may also engage in activities unrelated to the Company and the Operating Partnership and may provide services to Persons other than the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their Affiliates.
12.3.Investment Opportunities and Allocation. The Advisor shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to present a continuing and suitable investment program to the Company which is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company, but neither the Advisor nor any Affiliate of the Advisor shall be obligated generally to present any particular investment opportunity to the Company even if the opportunity is of character which, if presented to the Company, could be taken by the Company. In the event an investment opportunity is located, the allocation procedure set forth under the caption “Conflicts of Interest—Competitive Activities of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Affiliates” in any Prospectus (as may be amended from time to time) shall govern the allocation of the opportunity among the Company and Affiliates of the Advisor.
ARTICLE 13
THE ▇▇▇▇▇ NAME
The Advisor, ▇▇▇▇▇ and their Affiliates have a proprietary interest in the name “▇▇▇▇▇”. The Advisor hereby grants to the Company a non-transferable, non-assignable, non-exclusive royalty-free right and license to use the name “▇▇▇▇▇” during the term of this Agreement. Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company ceases to retain ▇▇▇▇▇ or an Affiliate thereof to perform the services of Advisor, the Company (including the Company) will, promptly after receipt of written request from ▇▇▇▇▇, cease to conduct business under or use the name “▇▇▇▇▇” or any derivative thereof and the Company and the Operating Partnership shall change the name of the Company and the Operating Partnership to a name that does not contain the name “▇▇▇▇▇” or any other word or words that might, in the reasonable discretion of the Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and the Advisor or any Affiliate thereof. At such time, the Company will also make any changes to any trademarks, servicemarks or other marks necessary to remove any references to the word “▇▇▇▇▇”. Consistent with the foregoing, it is specifically recognized that the Advisor or one or more of its Affiliates has in the past and may in the future organize, sponsor or otherwise permit to exist other investment vehicles (including vehicles for investment in real estate) and financial and service organizations having “▇▇▇▇▇” as a part of their name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by the Company or the Operating Partnership.

INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and the Operating Partnership and not from the Stockholders.
16.2Indemnification by the Advisor. The Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership 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, willful misconduct or reckless disregard of its duties, but the Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board of Directors in following or declining to follow any of the Advisor’s advice or recommendation. THE PARTIES HERETO INTEND THAT THE INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT BE CONSTRUED AND APPLIED AS WRITTEN NOTWITHSTANDING ANY RULE OF CONSTRUCTION TO THE CONTRARY.
