Section 1.1 Termination of REIT I Advisory Agreement.  Advisor and Company hereby agree that the REIT I Advisory Agreement shall be terminated, without any further liability or obligation on the part of any party thereto, effective as of the Merger Effective Time, subject to the last sentence of Section 1.4 and upon receipt by the Advisor of the Advisor Acquisition Payment payable pursuant to Section 1.3; provided, that, Articles 13, 15, 16 and 17 of the REIT I Advisory Agreement shall survive termination.
Section 1.2 Waiver of Termination Fees. Advisor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally relinquishes and waives any and all fees or compensation payable to Advisor in connection with the termination of the REIT I Advisory Agreement or the Merger.  For the avoidance of doubt, none of the fees contemplated by Section 13.3 of the REIT I Advisory Agreement nor any other payment not contemplated by this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any Disposition Fees, as such term is defined in the REIT I Advisory Agreement) shall be payable in connection with the termination of the REIT I Advisory Agreement or the Merger.
Section 1.3 Advisor Acquisition Payment. The fee payable to the Advisor pursuant to and in full satisfaction of Section 9(a) of the REIT II Advisory Agreement (the "Advisor Acquisition Payment"), which shall be the only fee payable to the Advisor in connection with the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement), shall be paid by REIT II to the Advisor on the Closing Date to the account of Advisor as set forth in Schedule I to this Agreement.
Section 1.4 Waiver of Notice; Calculation of Fees. Advisor and Company each hereby waives any notice of termination requirement, whether set forth in the Advisory Agreements, any other contract between Company or REIT II, on the one hand, and Advisor, on the other hand, or any of its Affiliates or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Advisory Agreements to the contrary, Advisor shall also be entitled to all unpaid fees and unreimbursed expenses under the Advisory Agreements, incurred in the ordinary course of business for the period up to the Closing as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreements; provided, that Advisor shall have remitted invoices for all such fees and expenses prior to the Closing Date.

(b) All disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in a Maryland state or federal court located in Baltimore City. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, for the purpose of any dispute based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party, (ii) agrees not to commence any such dispute except in such courts, (iii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such dispute may be heard and determined only in such courts, (iv) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute in such courts, and (v) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such dispute in such courts.

Section 3.9 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any present or future Law, or public policy, (a) such term or other provision shall be fully separable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, and (c) all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable term or other provision or by its severance herefrom so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section 3.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall be deemed one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered (by telecopy, electronic delivery or otherwise) to the other Parties.
