EFFECTS OF THE MERGER

Section 3.1 Effects of the Merger.

(a) The Merger. At the Merger Effective Time and by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of REIT II, REIT I or Merger Sub or the holders of any securities of REIT II, REIT I or Merger Sub:

(i) Except as provided in Section 3.1(a)(ii) and Section 3.1(a)(iii) and subject to Section 3.1(c) and Section 3.1(d), each share of REIT I Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and retired and converted into the right to receive (upon the proper surrender of the certificate representing such

(ii) share ("Certificate") or, in the case of a Book-Entry Share, the proper surrender of such Book-Entry Share), the Merger Consideration.

(iii) Each share of REIT I Common Stock, if any, then held by any Wholly Owned REIT I Subsidiary shall automatically be retired and shall cease to exist, and no Merger Consideration shall be paid, nor, except as expressly provided in the Termination and Fee Agreement, shall any other payment or right inure or be made with respect thereto in connection with or as a consequence of the Merger;

(iv) Each share of REIT I Common Stock, if any, then held by REIT II or any Wholly Owned REIT II Subsidiary shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be retired and shall cease to exist, and no Merger Consideration shall be paid, nor shall any other payment or right inure or be made with respect thereto in connection with or as a consequence of the Merger;

(v) Each share of REIT I Convertible Stock shall automatically be retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be paid, nor shall any other payment or other right inure or be made with respect thereto in connection with or as a consequence of the Merger;

(vi) Each membership interest of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding membership interests of the Surviving Entity.

(b) Adjustment of the Merger Consideration. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, between the date of this Agreement and the Merger Effective Time, if either of REIT I or REIT II should split, combine or otherwise reclassify the REIT I Common Stock or the REIT II Common Stock or make a dividend or other distribution in shares of the REIT I Common Stock (other than as specifically contemplated in this Agreement) or the REIT II Common Stock (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into REIT I Common Stock or REIT II Common Stock), or engage in a reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or exchange or other like change, then (without limiting any other rights of the Parties hereunder), the Exchange Ratio shall be ratably adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any such change, and thereafter all references to the Exchange Ratio shall be deemed to be the Exchange Ratio as so adjusted.

(c) Transfer Books. From and after the Merger Effective Time, the share transfer books of REIT I shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of REIT I Common Stock. From and after the Merger Effective Time, Persons who held REIT I Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall cease to have rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by applicable Law. On or after the Merger Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares of REIT I Common Stock presented to the Exchange Agent, REIT II, the Surviving Entity or the transfer agent shall be exchanged for the Merger Consideration with respect to REIT I Common Stock formerly represented thereby, as applicable.

(d) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of REIT II Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and such fractional share shall not entitle the record or beneficial owner thereof to vote or to any other rights as a stockholder of REIT II. In lieu of receiving any such fractional share, the holder shall receive cash (without interest) in an amount rounded up to the nearest whole cent, determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by (ii) $25.00.

Section 3.2 Exchange Procedures; Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares.

(a) As soon as practicable prior to the Merger Effective Time, REIT II will designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to REIT I to act as exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") for the payment and delivery of the Merger Consideration, as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i). Within 20 Business Days of the date of this Agreement, REIT II will use its commercially reasonable efforts enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent, in a form reasonably acceptable to REIT I (the "Exchange Agent Agreement"), setting forth the procedures to be used in accomplishing the deliveries and other actions contemplated by this Section 3.2.

(b) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, REIT II shall deposit with the Exchange Agent for the sole benefit of the holders of shares of REIT I Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article 3, (i) certificates or Book-Entry shares representing shares of REIT II Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration (together with cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 3.1(d), the "Exchange Fund"). In addition to the foregoing, after the Merger Effective Time on the appropriate payment date, if applicable, REIT II shall provide or shall cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent any dividends or other distributions payable on such shares of REIT II Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2(e) and such dividends or other distributions shall be deemed to be part of the Exchange Fund. REIT II shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make delivery of, the Merger Consideration and any applicable dividends or other distributions out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by REIT II. No investment of the Exchange Fund shall relieve REIT II or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Article 3, and following any losses from any such investment, REIT II shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent to the extent necessary to satisfy REIT II's obligations hereunder for the benefit of the holders of shares of REIT I Common Stock at the Merger Effective Time, which additional funds will be deemed to be part of the Exchange Fund.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Merger Effective Time (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), REIT II shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail (and to make available for collection by hand) to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of REIT I Common Stock (A) a letter of transmittal (a "Letter of Transmittal") in customary form as prepared by REIT II and reasonably acceptable to REIT I (which shall specify, among other things, that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry

(d) Shares to the Exchange Agent) and (A) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of REIT I Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Upon (A) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Share representing shares of REIT I Common Stock to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal or (B) receipt of an "agent's message" by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of transfer of a Book-Entry Share, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of REIT I Common Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) the Merger Consideration into which such shares of REIT I Common Stock shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) certain dividends and distributions in accordance with Section 3.2(e), if any, after the Exchange Agent's receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or "agent's message" or other evidence, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered or the Book-Entry Share so transferred, as applicable, shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. Until surrendered or transferred as contemplated by this Section 3.2, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing shares of REIT I Common Stock shall be deemed, at any time after the Merger Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article 3. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

(f) No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Merger Effective Time with respect to REIT II Common Stock with a record date after the Merger Effective Time shall be paid to any holder entitled by reason of the Merger to receive certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing REIT II Common Stock and no cash payment (including cash payment in lieu of a fractional share of REIT II Common Stock) shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 3.1(d) until such holder shall have surrendered its Certificates or Book-Entry Share pursuant to this Section 3.2 and all such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by REIT II to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, such holder shall be paid, in each case, without interest, (i) the amount of any dividends or other distributions theretofore paid with respect to the shares of REIT II Common Stock represented by the certificate or Book-Entry Shares received by such holder and having a record date on or after the Merger Effective Time and a payment date prior to such surrender and (ii) at the appropriate payment date or as promptly as practicable thereafter, the amount of any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such shares of REIT II Common Stock and having a record date on or after the Merger Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date on or after such surrender.

(g) In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of REIT I Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of REIT I, it shall be a condition of payment that any Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered or transferred in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.2 shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or Book-Entry Share transferred, or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of REIT II that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(h) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of REIT I Common Stock for twelve (12) months after the Merger Effective Time shall be delivered to REIT II upon demand, and any former holders of REIT I Common Stock prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article 3 shall thereafter look only to REIT II for payment of their claims with respect thereto.

(i) None of REIT I, the REIT II Parties, the Surviving Entity, the Exchange Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent or Affiliate of such entities, shall be liable to any Person in respect of the Merger Consideration if the Exchange Fund (or the appropriate portion thereof) has been delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any shares of REIT I Common Stock immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of REIT II free and clear of any claims or interest of such holders or their successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

Section 3.3 Withholding Rights. Each Party (including the Surviving Entity) and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of REIT I Common Stock, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payments under the Code or any other provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. Any such amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 3.4 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by REIT II, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as REIT II may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article 3.

Section 3.5 Dissenters Rights. After giving effect to the REIT I Charter Amendment, no dissenters' or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation the REIT I Charter Amendment.

Section 3.6 General Effects of the Merger. At the Merger Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as set forth in this Agreement and as provided in the applicable provisions of the MGCL and the DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Merger Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges and powers of REIT I and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities and duties of REIT I and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Entity.

(a) REIT I is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and has the requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and, to the extent applicable, operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. REIT I is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing

necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a REIT I Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each REIT I Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent applicable) under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, as the case may be, and has the requisite organizational power and authority to own, lease and, to the extent applicable, operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except for such failures to be so organized, in good standing or have certain power and authority that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a REIT I Material Adverse Effect. Each REIT I Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a REIT I Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Section 4.1(c) of the REIT I Disclosure Letter sets forth a true and complete list of the REIT I Subsidiaries and their respective jurisdictions of incorporation or organization, as the case may be, the jurisdictions in which REIT I and the REIT I Subsidiaries are qualified or licensed to do business, and the type of and percentage of interest held, directly or indirectly, by REIT I in each REIT I Subsidiary, including a list of each REIT I Subsidiary that is a "qualified REIT subsidiary" within the meaning of Section 856(i)(2) of the Code (each a "Qualified REIT Subsidiary") or a "taxable REIT subsidiary" within the meaning of Section 856(1) of the Code (each a "Taxable REIT Subsidiary") and each REIT I Subsidiary that is an entity taxable as a corporation which is neither a Qualified REIT Subsidiary nor a Taxable REIT Subsidiary.

(b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by REIT I, and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the REIT II Parties, constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of REIT I enforceable against REIT I in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

None of the REIT I SEC Documents filed as of the date of this Agreement is, to the Knowledge of REIT I, the subject of ongoing SEC review and REIT I does not have any outstanding and unresolved comments from the SEC with respect to any REIT I SEC Documents.

There are no internal investigations, any SEC inquiries or investigations or other governmental inquiries or investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of REIT I, threatened, in each case regarding any accounting practices of REIT I.

(d) Since December 31, 2014, (A) REIT I has designed and maintained disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by REIT I in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to REIT I's management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding

required disclosure, and (B) to the Knowledge of REIT I, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting REIT I's management to material information required to be included in REIT I's periodic reports required under the Exchange Act (if REIT II were required to file such reports). REIT I and REIT I Subsidiaries have designed and maintained a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances (i) regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, (ii) that transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (iii) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements and to maintain asset accountability, (iv) that access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, (v) that the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (vi) that accounts, notes and other receivables and inventory are recorded accurately, and proper and adequate procedures are implemented to effect the collection thereof on a current and timely basis. REIT I has disclosed to REIT I's auditors and audit committee (and made summaries of such disclosures available to REIT II) (A) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect in any material respect REIT I's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (B) any fraud, to the Knowledge of REIT I, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in internal control over financial reporting.

(f) Neither REIT I nor any REIT I Subsidiary is required to be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

(g) Neither REIT I nor any REIT I Subsidiary nor, to the Knowledge of REIT I, any director, officer or Representative of REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary has (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee or (iii) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, in each case, in violation in any material respect of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law.

All applications required to have been filed for the renewal of the REIT I Permits have been duly filed on a timely basis with the appropriate Governmental Entity, and all other filings required to have been made with respect to such REIT I Permits have been duly made on a timely basis with the appropriate Governmental Entity, except in each case for failures to file which would not result in the denial, revocation, impairment or invalidation of a REIT I Permit relating to any material REIT I Property. To the Knowledge of REIT I, there is not pending any applicable petition, objection or other pleading with any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction or authority over the operations of REIT I or the REIT I Subsidiaries that impairs the validity of any REIT I Permit or which would reasonably be expected, if accepted or granted, to result in the revocation of any REIT I Permit, except where the impairment or revocation of any such REIT I Permit would not adversely affect the ownership or operation of any material REIT I Property.

(b) Neither REIT I nor any REIT I Subsidiary is, and for the past three years has been, in conflict with, or in default or violation of (i) any Law applicable to REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary is bound

(except for compliance with Laws addressed in Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.13 and Section 4.16 which are solely addressed in those Sections), or (ii) any REIT I Permits (except for the REIT I Permits addressed in Section 4.10 or Section 4.11, which are solely addressed in those Sections), except, in each case, for any such conflicts, defaults or violations that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a REIT I Material Adverse Effect.

Neither REIT I nor any REIT I Subsidiary has been permanently or temporarily enjoined by any Order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority from engaging in or continuing to conduct the business of REIT I or the REIT I Subsidiaries. No Order of any Governmental Authority has been issued in any proceeding to which REIT I or any of the REIT I Subsidiaries is or was a party, or, to the Knowledge of REIT I, in any other proceeding, that enjoins or requires REIT I or any of the REIT I Subsidiaries to take action of any kind with respect to its businesses, assets or properties. Since December 31, 2016, none of REIT I, any REIT I Subsidiary or any Representative of the foregoing has received or made any settlement offer for any material Action to which REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary is a party or potentially could be a party (in each case, either as plaintiff or defendant), other than settlement offers that do not exceed $200,000 individually.

(c) Each REIT I Material Contract is legal, valid, binding and enforceable on REIT I and each other REIT I Subsidiary that is a party thereto and, to the Knowledge of REIT I, each other party thereto, and is in full force and effect, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law).

Section 4.13 Taxes.

(a) REIT I and each REIT I Subsidiary has timely filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority all United States federal income Tax Returns and all other material Tax Returns required to be filed, taking into account any extensions of time within which to file such Tax Returns, and all such Tax Returns were complete and correct in all material respects. REIT I and each REIT I Subsidiary has duly paid (or there has been paid on their behalf), or made adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for, all material Taxes required to be paid by them, whether or not shown on any Tax Return. No written claim has been proposed by any Governmental Authority in any jurisdiction where REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary do not file Tax Returns that REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary is or may be subject to Tax by such jurisdiction.

(b) REIT I (i) for all taxable years commencing with REIT I's year ending December 31, 2013 and through December 31, 2016, has been subject to taxation as a real estate investment trust (a "REIT") under Section 856 of the Code and has satisfied all requirements to qualify as a REIT for such years; (ii) has operated since January 1, 2017 to the date hereof in a manner consistent with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT; (iii) intends to continue to operate in such a manner as to qualify as a REIT for its taxable year that will include the day of the Merger; and (iv) has not taken or omitted to take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a challenge by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority to its status as a REIT, and no such challenge is pending or threatened, to the Knowledge of REIT I. No REIT

I Subsidiary is a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, other than a corporation that qualifies as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or as a Taxable REIT Subsidiary. REIT I's dividends paid deduction, within the meaning of Section 561 of the Code, for each taxable year, taking into account any dividends subject to Sections 857(b)(8) or 858 of the Code, has not been less than the sum of (i) REIT I's REIT taxable income, as defined in Section 857(b)(2) of the Code, determined without regard to any dividends paid deduction for such year and (ii) REIT I's net capital gain for such year.

Agreement, if any, including any amendments thereto, the "REIT II SEC Documents"). As of their respective filing dates (or the date of their most recent amendment, supplement or modification, in each case, to the extent filed and publicly available prior to the date of this Agreement), the REIT II SEC Documents (i) complied, or with respect to REIT II SEC Documents filed after the date hereof, will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, each as in effect on the date so filed, and (ii) did not, or with respect to REIT II SEC Documents filed after the date hereof, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. None of the REIT II SEC Documents filed as of the date of this Agreement is, to the Knowledge of REIT II, the subject of ongoing SEC review and REIT II does not have any outstanding and unresolved comments from the SEC with respect to any REIT II SEC Documents. None of the REIT II SEC Documents filed as of the date of this Agreement is the subject of any confidential treatment request by REIT II. No REIT II Subsidiary is separately subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

(b) At all applicable times, REIT II has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act.

(c) The consolidated audited and unaudited financial statements of REIT II and the REIT II Subsidiaries included, or incorporated by reference, in the REIT II SEC Documents, including the related notes and schedules (as amended, supplemented or modified by later REIT II SEC Documents, in each case, to the extent filed and publicly available prior to the date of this Agreement), (i) have been or will be, as the case may be, prepared from, are in accordance with, and accurately reflect the books and records of REIT II and REIT II Subsidiaries in all material respects, (ii) complied or will comply, as the case may be, as of their respective dates in all material respects with the then-applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, (iii) have been or will be, as the case may be, prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto, or, in the case of the unaudited financial statements, for normal and recurring year-end adjustments and as may be permitted by the SEC on Form 10-Q, Form 8‑K, Regulation S‑X or any successor or like form or rule under the Exchange Act, which such adjustments are not, in the aggregate, material to REIT II) and (iv) fairly present, in all material respects (subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, for normal and recurring year-end adjustments, none of which is material), the consolidated financial position of REIT II and the REIT II Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as of their respective dates and the consolidated statements of income and the consolidated cash flows of REIT II and the REIT II Subsidiaries for the periods presented therein. There are no internal investigations, any SEC inquiries or investigations or other governmental inquiries or investigations pending or, to the Knowledge of REIT II, threatened, in each case regarding any accounting practices of REIT II.

(d) Since October 22, 2015, (A) REIT II has designed and maintained disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by REIT II in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and

communicated to REIT II's management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (B) to the Knowledge of REIT II, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting REIT II's management to material information required to be included in REIT II's periodic reports required under the Exchange Act (if REIT II were required to file such reports). REIT II and REIT II Subsidiaries have designed and maintained a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances (i) regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, (ii) that transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (iii) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements and to maintain asset accountability, (iv) that access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, (v) that the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (vi) that accounts, notes and other receivables and inventory are recorded accurately, and proper and adequate procedures are implemented to effect the collection thereof on a current and timely basis. REIT II has disclosed to REIT II's auditors and audit committee (and made summaries of such disclosures available to REIT I) (1) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect in any material respect REIT II's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (2) any fraud, to the Knowledge of REIT II, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in internal control over financial reporting.

(f) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary is required to be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

(g) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary nor, to the Knowledge of REIT II, any director, officer or Representative of REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary has (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee or (iii) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, in each case, in violation in any material respect of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law.

All applications required to have been filed for the renewal of the REIT II Permits have been duly filed on a timely basis with the appropriate Governmental Entity, and all other filings required to have been made with respect to such REIT II Permits have been duly made on a timely basis with the appropriate Governmental Entity, except in each case for failures to file which, would not result in the denial, revocation, impairment or invalidation of a REIT II Permit relating to any material REIT II Property. To the Knowledge of REIT II, there is not pending any applicable petition, objection or other pleading with any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction or authority over the operations of REIT II or the REIT II Subsidiaries that impairs the validity of any REIT II Permit or which would reasonably be expected, if accepted or granted, to result in the revocation of any REIT II Permit, except where the impairment or revocation of any such REIT II Permit would not adversely affect the ownership or operation of any material REIT II Property.

(b) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary is, and for the past one (1) year has been, in conflict with, or in default or violation of (i) any Law applicable to REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary is bound (except for compliance with Laws addressed in Section 5.10, Section 5.11, Section 5.13 and

Section 5.14 which are solely addressed in those Sections), or (ii) any REIT II Permits (except for the REIT II Permits addressed in Section 5.10 or Section 5.11, which are solely addressed in those Sections), except, in each case, for any such conflicts, defaults or violations that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a REIT II Material Adverse Effect.

No Order of any Governmental Authority has been issued in any proceeding to which REIT II or any of the REIT II Subsidiaries is or was a party, or, to the Knowledge of REIT II, in any other proceeding, that enjoins or requires REIT II or any of the REIT II Subsidiaries to take action of any kind with respect to its businesses, assets or properties. Since December 31, 2016, none of REIT II, any REIT II Subsidiary or any Representative of the foregoing has received or made any settlement offer for any material Action to which REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary is a party or potentially could be a party (in each case, either as plaintiff or defendant), other than settlement offers that do not exceed $200,000 individually.

Section 5.13 Taxes.

(a) Each REIT II Party and each other REIT II Subsidiary has timely filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority all United States federal income Tax Returns and all other material Tax Returns required to be filed, taking into account any extensions of time within which to file such Tax Returns, and all such Tax Returns were complete and correct in all material respects. Each REIT II Party and each other REIT II Subsidiary has duly paid (or there has been paid on their behalf), or made adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for, all material Taxes required to be paid by them, whether or not shown on any Tax Return. No written claim has been proposed by any Governmental Authority in any jurisdiction where REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary do not file Tax Returns that REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary is or may be subject to Tax by such jurisdiction.

(b) REIT II (i) intends to make an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2016, upon the filing of its United States federal income Tax Return for such year, (ii) has operated since January 1, 2016 to the date hereof in a manner consistent with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT; (iii) intends to continue to operate in such a manner as to qualify as a REIT for its taxable year that will include the day of the Merger; and (iv) has not taken or omitted to take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a challenge by the IRS or any other

(c) Governmental Authority to its status as a REIT, and no such challenge is pending or threatened, to the Knowledge of REIT II.

REIT II's dividends paid deduction, within the meaning of Section 561 of the Code, for each taxable year, taking into account any dividends subject to Sections 857(b)(8) or 858 of the Code, has not been less than the sum of (i) REIT II's REIT taxable income, as defined in Section 857(b)(2) of the Code, determined without regard to any dividends paid deduction for such year and (ii) REIT II's net capital gain for such year.

(e) Each REIT II Subsidiary that is a partnership, joint venture or limited liability company and that has not elected to be a Taxable REIT Subsidiary has been since its formation treated for United States federal income tax purposes as a partnership, disregarded entity, or Qualified REIT Subsidiary, as the case may be, and not as a corporation, an association taxable as a corporation whose separate existence is respected for United States federal income tax purposes, or a "publicly traded partnership" within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code that is treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes under Section 7704(a) of the Code.

No event has occurred, and to the Knowledge of REIT II no condition or circumstances exists, which presents a material risk that any material liability for

Taxes described clause (i) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or any liability for Taxes described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence will be imposed upon REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary.

(h) REIT II and the REIT II Subsidiaries have complied, in all material respects, with all applicable Laws relating to the payment and withholding of Taxes (including withholding of Taxes pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446 and 3402 of the Code or similar provisions under any state and foreign Laws) and have duly and timely withheld and, in each case, have paid over to the appropriate taxing authorities all material amounts required to be so withheld and paid over on or prior to the due date thereof under all applicable Laws.

(i) There are no REIT II Tax Protection Agreements (as hereinafter defined) in force at the date of this Agreement, and, as of the date of this Agreement, no person has raised in writing, or to the Knowledge of REIT II threatened to raise, a material claim against REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary for any breach of any REIT II Tax Protection Agreements.

(j) There are no Tax Liens upon any property or assets of REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary except Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP.

(k) There are no Tax allocation or sharing agreements or similar arrangements (other than Non-Tax Contracts) with respect to or involving REIT II or any REIT II Subsidiary, and after the Closing Date neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary shall be bound by any such Tax allocation agreements or similar arrangements or have any liability thereunder for amounts due in respect of periods prior to the Closing Date.

(l) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary has requested or received any written ruling of a Governmental Authority or entered into any written agreement with a Governmental Authority with respect to any Taxes, and neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary is subject to written ruling of a Governmental Authority.

(m) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary (i) has been a member of an affiliated group filing a consolidated United States federal income Tax Return or (ii) has any liability for the Taxes of any Person (other than any REIT II Subsidiary) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law), as a transferee or successor, by Contract, or otherwise (other than pursuant to a Non-Tax Contract).

(n) Neither REIT II nor any REIT II Subsidiary has participated in any "reportable transaction" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b).

Each of REIT II and REIT I shall use its reasonable best efforts to (A) have the Form S‑4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing, (B) ensure that the Form S‑4 complies in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act and (C) keep the Form S‑4 effective for so long as necessary to complete the Merger, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article 9.

The Form S‑4 and the Proxy Statement shall include all information reasonably requested by such other Party to be included therein. REIT II shall promptly notify REIT I upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement, and shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, provide REIT I with copies of all correspondence between it and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement received from the SEC and advise REIT I of any oral comments with respect to the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement received from the SEC. REIT II shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing the Form S‑4 with the SEC (or any amendment or supplement thereto), mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Parties shall provide each other with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or Form S-4. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no amendment or supplement (including incorporation by reference) to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 shall be made without the approval of REIT II Special Committee and the REIT I Special Committee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. REIT II shall notify REIT I, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time of effectiveness of the Form S‑4, the issuance of any stop order relating thereto or the suspension of the qualification for offering or sale in any jurisdiction of the registered securities, and REIT II and REIT I shall use their reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated.

Securities, and REIT I shall furnish all information concerning REIT I and its stockholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such actions.

(b) If, at any time prior to the receipt of the Common Stockholder Approvals, any information relating to REIT I or REIT II, or any of their respective Affiliates, should be discovered by REIT I or REIT II which, in the reasonable judgment of REIT I or REIT II, should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, any of the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement, so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties, and REIT I and REIT II shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment of, or supplement to, the Form S‑4 or the Proxy Statement and, to the extent required by Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to stockholders of REIT I and REIT II. Nothing in this Section 7.1(b) shall limit the obligations of any Party under Section 7.1(a). For purposes of Section 5.23, Section 4.22 and this Section 7.1, any information concerning or related to REIT II or its Affiliates will be deemed to have been provided by REIT II, and any information concerning or related to REIT I, its Affiliates or the Stockholders Meeting will be deemed to have been provided by REIT I.

REIT I shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to REIT I's stockholders entitled to vote at the Stockholders Meeting and to hold the Stockholders Meeting as soon as practicable after the Form S‑4 is declared effective under the Securities Act. REIT I shall, through the REIT I Board, recommend to its stockholders that they provide the Common Stockholder Approvals, include the REIT I Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and solicit and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Common Stockholder Approvals, except to the extent that the REIT I Board shall have made an Adverse Recommendation Change as permitted by Section 7.3(d); provided, however, that REIT I's obligation to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Stockholders Meeting shall be unconditional unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and shall not be affected by any Adverse Recommendation Change. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1(c), if, on a date for which the Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, REIT I has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of REIT I Common Stock to obtain the Common Stockholder Approvals, whether or not a quorum is present, REIT I shall have the right to make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Stockholders Meeting (provided, however, that the Stockholders Meeting shall not be postponed or adjourned to a date that is (i) more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the Stockholders Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments or postponements required by applicable Law) or (ii) more than 120 days from the record date for the Stockholders Meeting); provided, further, the Stockholders Meeting may not be postponed or adjourned on the date the Stockholders Meeting is scheduled if REIT I shall have received proxies in respect of an aggregate number of shares of REIT I Common Stock,

which have not been withdrawn, such that Common Stockholder Approvals would be obtained at such meeting.

Section 7.2 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) During the Interim Period, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective subsidiaries to, afford to the other Parties and to their respective Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice to all of their respective properties, offices, books, Contracts, personnel and records and, during such period, each of the Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective subsidiaries to and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, furnish reasonably promptly to the other Parties (i) any information concerning such Party or its respective subsidiaries (including with respect to any pending or threatened Action) as the other Party may reasonably request and (ii) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities Laws. In connection with such reasonable access to information, each of the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause its respective Representatives to participate in meetings and telephone conferences with the other Parties and their Representatives prior to the mailing of any Proxy Statement, prior to the Stockholders Meeting and at such other times as may be reasonably requested. No investigation under this Section 7.2(a) or otherwise shall affect any of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement or any condition to the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Parties shall be required by this Section 7.2(a) to provide the other Parties or their respective Representatives with access to or to disclose information (A) that is subject to the terms of a confidentiality agreement with a third party entered into prior to the date of this Agreement or entered into after the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or in accordance with this Agreement (provided, however, that the withholding Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the required consent of such third party to such access or disclosure), (B) the disclosure of which would violate any Law applicable to such Party or any of its Representatives (provided, however, that withholding Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure not in violation of any Law or duty), or (C) that is subject to any attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege (provided, however, that withholding Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure to the maximum extent that does not result in a loss of any such attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege, including by means of entry into a customary joint defense agreement that would alleviate the loss of such privilege). The Parties will use their reasonable best efforts to minimize any disruption to the businesses of the other Parties and any of their respective subsidiaries that may result from the requests for access, data and information hereunder. Prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Parties shall not, and shall cause their respective Representatives and Affiliates not to, contact or otherwise communicate with parties with which any of the other Parties or any other of their respective subsidiaries has a business relationship regarding the business of the other Parties and their respective subsidiaries or this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of such other Party (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.3(a) shall be deemed to restrict the Parties from contacting such parties in pursuing the business of the Parties operating in the ordinary course).

(b) Each Party will hold, and will cause its respective Representatives and Affiliates to hold, any nonpublic information, including any information exchanged pursuant to this Section 7.2, in confidence to the extent required by and in accordance with, and will otherwise comply with, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect pursuant to the terms thereof notwithstanding the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the termination thereof.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Go Shop Bidder" shall mean any Person (including its controlled Affiliates and Representatives) that submits a proposal or offer regarding an Acquisition Proposal not later than the Go Shop Period End Time that has not been withdrawn and that the REIT I Special Committee determines prior to the Go Shop Period End Time (or in the case of any Acquisition Proposal received less than five (5) Business Days before the date of the Go Shop Period End Time, not later than five (5) Business Days after the Go Shop Period End Time), has resulted in, or would be reasonably expected to result in, a Superior Proposal (as defined below) (such Person, a "Go Shop Bidder"); provided, that a Go Shop Bidder shall cease to be a Go Shop Bidder if the negotiations between REIT I and such Go Shop Bidder with respect to the Acquisition Proposal that resulted in such Go Shop Bidder becoming a Go Shop Bidder shall have been terminated. No later than two (2) Business Days after the Go Shop Period End Time, REIT I shall notify REIT II in writing of the identity of each Go Shop Bidder and provide to REIT II (x) a copy of any related Acquisition Proposal made in writing and any other written material terms or proposals provided (including, to the extent not included therein, a copy of the acquisition agreement and any related transaction documents and financing commitments, if any) to REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary and (y) a written summary of the material

terms of any related Acquisition Proposal not made in writing (including any material terms proposed orally or supplementally).

(b) Except as permitted by, and subject to, Section 7.3(c), Section 7.3(d) and Section 7.3(e), and except with respect to a Go Shop Bidder, from and after the Go Shop Period End Time, REIT I shall not, and shall cause each of the REIT I Subsidiaries not to, and shall not authorize or permit any of its or their Representatives to, (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal, offer or other action that constitutes any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person, or furnish to any Person other than a REIT II Party or their Representatives, any non-public information, in furtherance of such inquiries or to obtain an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) release any Person from or fail to enforce any standstill agreement or similar obligation to REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary, (iv) withdraw, modify or amend the REIT I Board Recommendation in any manner adverse to REIT II or fail to make the REIT I Board Recommendation or fail to include the REIT I Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (v) approve, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal (any event described in clause (iv) or this clause (v), whether taken by the REIT I Board or a committee thereof, an "Adverse Recommendation Change"), (vi) enter into any agreement in principle, arrangement, understanding, contract or agreement (whether binding or not) contemplating or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or (vii) take any action to exempt any Person from any Takeover Statute or similar restrictive provision of the REIT I Organizational Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing, REIT I shall, and shall cause (i) each REIT I Subsidiary and (ii) each Representative of REIT I and the REIT I Subsidiaries to, immediately cease any discussions, negotiations or communications with any Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal (other than as permitted by Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(c)) and shall immediately terminate all physical and electronic data room access previously granted to any such person. REIT I agrees that in the event any Representative of REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary takes any action that, if taken by REIT I or a REIT I Subsidiary, would constitute a material violation of this Section 7.3(b), then REIT I shall be deemed to be in violation of this Section 7.3(b) for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) At any time prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after the Go Shop Period End Time, the REIT I Board may, if the REIT I Board determines in good faith after consultation with its legal advisor (and based on the recommendation of the REIT I Special Committee) that failing to do so would be inconsistent with the directors' duties under applicable Law, upon receipt by REIT I of an Acquisition Proposal from a Go Shop Bidder that constitutes a Superior Proposal, give notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(ii) and enter into an agreement related to such Superior Proposal, provided, that:

(i) REIT I has notified REIT II in writing that the REIT I Board intends to enter into an agreement relating to such Superior Proposal, attaching the most current version of such agreement (including any amendments, supplements or modifications) to such notice (a "REIT I Notice of Intention"); and

(ii) during the five (5) Business Day period following REIT II's receipt of a REIT I Notice of Intention, REIT I shall have offered to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiated in good faith with), and shall have caused its respective financial and legal advisors to

offer to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiate in good faith with), REIT II in making adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that the Superior Proposal ceases to be a Superior Proposal; provided, that any amendment, supplement or modification to any Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed a new Acquisition Proposal and REIT I may not enter into any such Superior Proposal pursuant this Section 7.3(c) unless REIT I has complied with the requirements of this Section 7.3(c) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal including sending a REIT I Notice of Intention (except that the new negotiation period under this Section 7.3(c) shall be three (3) Business Days instead of five (5) Business Days).

(d) At any time beginning on the sixth (6^th) Business Day after the Go Shop Period End Time and prior to receipt of the Common Stockholder Approvals, the REIT I Board may, if the REIT I Board determines in good faith after consultation with its legal advisor (and based on the recommendation of the REIT I Special Committee) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the directors' duties under applicable Law, upon receipt by REIT I of an Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal (whether or not from a Go Shop Bidder), make an Adverse Recommendation Change; provided, that:

(i) Such Acquisition Proposal (1) did not result from REIT I's material breach of its obligations under this Section 7.3, and (2) the REIT I Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its legal and financial advisors (and based on the recommendation of the REIT I Special Committee), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after consultation with its legal advisor, that the failure of REIT I to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the directors' duties under applicable Law, taking into account all adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that may be offered by REIT II pursuant to Section 7.3(d)(iii);

(ii) REIT I has notified REIT II in writing that the REIT I Board intends to make an Adverse Recommendation Change (a "Adverse Recommendation Change Notice"); and

(iii) during the five (5) Business Day period following REIT II's receipt of an Adverse Recommendation Change Notice REIT I shall have offered to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiated in good faith with), and shall have caused its respective financial and legal advisors to offer to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiate in good faith with), REIT II in making adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that in circumstances involving or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, the Superior Proposal ceases to be a Superior Proposal; provided that any change in the consideration offered or any other material amendment, supplement or modification to any Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed a new Acquisition Proposal and REIT I may not make an Adverse Recommendation Change unless REIT I has complied with the requirements of this Section 7.3(d) with respect to each such new Acquisition Proposal including sending an Adverse Recommendation Change Notice with respect to each such new Acquisition Proposal (except that the new negotiation period under this Section 7.3(d)(iii) shall be three (3) Business Days instead of five (5) Business Days). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.3(d)(iii), REIT II's rejection of REIT I's offer to negotiate pursuant to this Section 7.3(d)(iii) shall not have any bearing on REIT II's right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii) herein.

(e) Nothing in this Section 7.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prevent the REIT I Board or REIT I, directly or indirectly, from (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of REIT I a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, making any required disclosure to the stockholders of REIT I under applicable Law, including Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of REIT I if the REIT I Board determines in good faith after consultation with its legal advisors (and based on the recommendation of the REIT I Special Committee) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the directors' duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that to the extent any such disclosure addresses the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the REIT I Board with respect to this Agreement or an Acquisition Proposal, such disclosure shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change if not accompanied by an express public re-affirmation of the REIT I Board Recommendation.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) "Acquisition Proposal" means any proposal or offer, whether in one transaction or a series of related transactions, relating to any (a) merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or similar transaction involving REIT I or any REIT I Subsidiary that would constitute a "significant subsidiary" (as defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X), (b) sale or other disposition, by merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or any similar transaction, of any assets of REIT I or any of the REIT I Subsidiaries representing 20% or more of the consolidated assets of REIT I and the REIT I Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (c) issue, sale or other disposition by REIT I or any of the REIT I Subsidiaries of (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into, such securities) representing 20% or more of the votes associated with the outstanding shares of REIT I Common Stock, (d) tender offer or exchange offer in which any Person or "group" (as such term is defined under the Exchange Act) shall acquire beneficial ownership (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), or the right to acquire beneficial ownership, of 20% or more of the votes associated with the outstanding shares of REIT I Common Stock, (e) recapitalization, restructuring, liquidation, dissolution or other similar type of transaction with respect to REIT I in which a third party shall acquire beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of REIT I Common Stock, or (f) transaction that is similar in form, substance or purpose to any of the foregoing transactions; provided, however, that the term "Acquisition Proposal" shall not include (i) the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction solely among REIT I and one or more of the REIT I Subsidiaries or solely among the REIT I Subsidiaries.

Proposal on the terms proposed (taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal and conditions to consummation thereof) to be more favorable from a financial point of view to the stockholders of REIT I (in their capacities as stockholders) than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as it may be proposed to be amended by REIT II)) taking into account all reasonably available legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal that the REIT I Board deems relevant.

in the case of REIT II, including the failure of the other REIT II Parties) to perform or comply in all material respects with any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under this Agreement; or

(iii) if the Common Stockholder Approvals shall not have been obtained at the Stockholders Meeting duly convened therefor or at any adjournment or postponement thereof at which a vote on the approval of the Merger and the REIT I Charter Amendment was taken; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b)(iii) shall not be available to a Party if the failure to receive the Common Stockholder Approvals was primarily due to the failure of a Party to perform or comply in all material respects with any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under this Agreement;

(i) if any of the REIT II Parties shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, obligations, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform, either individually or in the aggregate, if continuing at the Merger Effective Time (A) would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) (a "REIT II Terminating Breach") and (B) cannot be cured or waived by the Outside Date; provided, that the REIT I Special Committee shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c)(i) if a REIT I Terminating Breach shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the REIT I Special Committee delivers notice of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c)(i); or

(ii) if REIT I has accepted a Superior Proposal by a Go Shop Bidder within five (5) Business Days of the Go Shop Period End Time in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3(c) herein; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be so terminated unless concurrently with the occurrence of such termination the payment required by Section 9.3(b) is made in full to REIT II and the definitive agreement relating to the Superior Proposal is entered into, and in the event that such definitive agreement is not concurrently entered into and such payment is not concurrently made, such termination shall be null and void; or

(iii) if REIT I has accepted a Superior Proposal at any time beginning on the sixth (6th) Business Day after the Go Shop Period End Time and prior to receipt of the Common Stockholder Approvals in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3(d) herein; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be so terminated unless concurrently with the occurrence of such termination the payment required by Section 9.3(b) is made in full to REIT II and the definitive agreement relating to the Superior Proposal is entered into, and in the event that such definitive agreement is not concurrently entered into and such payment is not concurrently made, such termination shall be null and void; or

(it being understood that during such four (4) Business Day period, REIT II shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement); or

(d) by REIT II (acting through the REIT II Special Committee):

(i) if REIT I shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, obligations, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform, either individually or in the aggregate, if continuing at the Merger Effective Time (A) would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) (a "REIT I Terminating Breach") and (B) cannot be cured or waived by the Outside Date; provided, that REIT II shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d)(i) if a REIT II Terminating Breach shall have occurred and be continuing at the time REIT II delivers notice of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d)(i);

(ii) if, at any time following the date that is five (5) Business Days after the Go Shop Period End Time and prior to the receipt of the Common Stockholder Approvals, (A) the REIT I Board or any committee thereof, for any reason, shall have effected an Adverse Recommendation Change, (B) the REIT I Board or any committee thereof shall have approved, adopted or publicly endorsed or recommended any Acquisition Proposal, (C) a tender offer or exchange offer for any shares of REIT I Common Stock that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal (other than by REIT II or any of its Affiliates) is commenced and the REIT I Board fails to recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by the stockholders of REIT I and to publicly reaffirm the REIT I Board Recommendation within ten (10) Business Days of being requested to do so by REIT II, (D) the REIT I Board or any committee thereof fails to include the REIT I Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, or (E) REIT I shall have materially violated any of its obligations under Section 7.3, or shall be deemed pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7.3(b) to have materially violated any of its obligations under Section 7.3 (other than any immaterial or inadvertent violations thereof that did not result in an alternative Acquisition Proposal); or

Section 9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 9.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of REIT I or the REIT II Parties, except that the Confidentiality Agreement and the provisions of Section 7.4 (Public Announcements), this Section 9.2, Section 9.3 (Fees and Expenses), Section 9.4 (Amendment), and Article 10 (General Provisions) of this Agreement shall survive the

termination hereof; provided, that no such termination shall relieve any Party from any liability or damages resulting from any fraud or willful and material breach of any of its covenants, obligations or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.3, all Expenses shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated; provided that the Parties will share equally any HSR Act and Form S‑4 filing fees as may be required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event the Merger is consummated, the REIT II Parties agree to pay any REIT I Transaction Fees and Expenses that are not paid by REIT I.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated:

(i) (A) (x) by REIT II pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(i) as a result of a willful breach of any covenant or agreement by REIT I, and after the date hereof and prior to the willful breach giving rise to such right of termination, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal (with, for all purposes of this Section 9.3(b)(i), all percentages included in the definition of "Acquisition Proposal" increased to 50%) has been publicly announced, disclosed or otherwise communicated to the REIT I Board or any Person shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional) to make such an Acquisition Proposal or (y) by REIT II or REIT I pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(iii), and prior to the Stockholders Meeting, an Acquisition Proposal with respect to REIT I has been publicly announced, disclosed or otherwise communicated to REIT I's stockholders (and not withdrawn) or any Person shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional) to make such an Acquisition Proposal, and (B) within twelve (12) months after the date of such termination, a transaction in respect of an Acquisition Proposal with respect to REIT I is consummated or REIT I enters into a definitive agreement in respect of an Acquisition Proposal with respect to REIT I that is later consummated, then REIT I shall pay to REIT II an amount equal to the Expense Reimbursement plus the Termination Fee.

(ii) by REIT I pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(ii), then REIT I shall pay to REIT II an amount equal to the Expense Reimbursement plus 50% of the Termination Fee.

(iii) by REIT I pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(iii), then REIT I shall pay to REIT II an amount equal to the Expense Reimbursement plus the Termination Fee.

(iv) by REIT II pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii), then REIT I shall pay to REIT II an amount equal to the Expense Reimbursement plus the Termination Fee.

(c) The Parties agree and acknowledge that in no event shall any Party be required to pay the Expense Reimbursement, the Termination Fee, or any portion thereof on more than one occasion. Payment of the Expense Reimbursement, the Termination Fee or any portion thereof shall be made by wire transfer of same day funds to the account or accounts designated by the party entitled to payment thereof (the "Recipient") (i) prior to or concurrently with the time of consummation of any transaction contemplated by an Acquisition Proposal, in the case of a Termination Fee and Expense Reimbursement payable pursuant to Section 9.3(b)(i), and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable after termination (and, in any event, within two (2) Business

Days thereafter) in the case of any Expense Reimbursement and Termination Fee or portion thereof payable pursuant to any other provision of Section 9.3.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Expense Reimbursement or the Termination Fee or any portion thereof becomes payable, then such payment shall be the Recipient's and its Affiliates' sole and exclusive remedy as liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages of any nature against the party obligated to pay (the "Payor") the Expense Reimbursement or the Termination Fee or any portion thereof, and its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Representatives in respect of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the termination of this Agreement, the failure of the Merger to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder (whether intentionally, unintentionally, or otherwise) or otherwise.

(e) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, the other parties would not enter into this Agreement. In the event that the Payor shall fail to pay the Expense Reimbursement or the Termination Fee or any portion thereof when due, the Payor shall reimburse the Recipient for all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred or accrued by the Recipient (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 9.3. Further, if the Payor fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 9.3, and, in order to obtain the payment, the Recipient commences a suit which results in a judgment against the Payor for the payment set forth in this Section 9.3, the Payor shall pay to the Recipient its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys' fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment. If payable, the Expense Reimbursement or the Termination Fee or any portion thereof shall not be payable more than once pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) The Payor shall deposit into escrow an amount in cash equal to the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof with an escrow agent reasonably selected by the Recipient, after reasonable consultation with the Payor, and pursuant to a written escrow agreement (the "Escrow Agreement") reflecting the terms set forth in this Section 9.3(f) and otherwise reasonably acceptable to each of the Parties and the escrow agent. The payment or deposit into escrow of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof pursuant to this Section 9.3(f) shall be made by the Payor promptly after receipt of notice from the Recipient that the Escrow Agreement has been executed by the parties thereto. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof in escrow or the applicable portion thereof shall be released to the Recipient on an annual basis based upon the delivery by the Recipient to the escrow agent of any one (or a combination) of the following:

(i) a letter from the receiving Party's independent certified public accountants indicating the maximum amount that can be paid by the escrow agent to the receiving Party without causing the receiving Party to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code for the applicable taxable year of the Recipient determined as if the payment

of such amount did not constitute income described in Sections 856(c)(2)(A)‑(H) or 856(c)(3)(A)‑(I) of the Code (such income, "Qualifying REIT Income"), in which case the escrow agent shall release to the Recipient such maximum amount stated in the accountant's letter;

(ii) a letter from the Recipient's counsel indicating that the Recipient received a private letter ruling from the IRS holding that the receipt by the receiving Party of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof would either constitute Qualifying REIT Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, in which case the escrow agent shall release to the receiving Party the remainder of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof; or

(iii) a letter from the Recipient's counsel indicating that the receiving Party has received a tax opinion from the Recipient's outside counsel or accountant, respectively, to the effect that the receipt by the receiving Party of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof would either constitute Qualifying REIT Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Section 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, in which case the escrow agent shall release to the receiving Party the remainder of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof.

The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to amend this Section 9.3(f) at the reasonable request of the Recipient in order to (A) maximize the portion of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof that may be distributed to the Recipient hereunder without causing the Recipient to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, (B)improve the Recipient's chances of securing the favorable private letter ruling from the IRS described in this Section 9.3(f) or (C) assist the Recipient in obtaining the favorable tax opinion from its outside counsel or accountant described in this Section 9.3(f). The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Recipient shall bear all costs and expenses under the Escrow Agreement and that any portion of the Expense Reimbursement and the Termination Fee or any portion thereof held in escrow for ten (10) years shall be released by the escrow agent to the Payor. The Payor shall not be a party to the Escrow Agreement and shall not bear any liability, cost or expense resulting directly or indirectly from the Escrow Agreement (other than any Taxes of the paying Party associated with the release of the funds to the paying Party from the escrow). The Recipient shall fully indemnify the Payor and hold the Payor harmless from and against any such liability, cost or expense.

Section 9.4 Amendment. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the Parties by action taken or authorized by the REIT I Special Committee and the REIT II Board, respectively, at any time before or after receipt of the Stockholder Approvals and prior to the Merger Effective Time; provided, that after the Common Stockholder Approvals has been obtained, there shall not be (x) any amendment of this Agreement that changes the amount or the form of the consideration to be delivered under this Agreement to the holders of REIT I Common Stock, or which by applicable Law requires the further approval of the stockholders of REIT I without such further approval of such stockholders, or (y) any amendment or change not permitted under applicable Law. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Parties.

Section 10.3 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 10.4 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. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in "portable document form" ("pdf"), or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

Section 10.5 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Exhibits, the Schedules, the REIT I Disclosure Letter and the REIT II Disclosure Letter) and the Confidentiality Agreement (a) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and, (b) except for the provisions of Article 3 (which, from and after the Merger Effective Time, shall be for the benefit of holders of shares of REIT I Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time) and Section 7.7 (which, from and after the Merger Effective Time shall be for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties), are not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies.

Section 10.6 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Parties (including the REIT I Special Committee, on behalf of REIT I) may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party (including the REIT I Special Committee, on behalf of REIT I) to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

Section 10.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) Except to the extent that the Laws of the State of Delaware are mandatorily applicable to the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the DE SOS, this Agreement, and all claims or causes of actions (whether at Law, in contract or in tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles (whether the State of Maryland or any other jurisdiction that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland).

(b) Any and all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be heard and determined exclusively in a Maryland state or federal court located in Baltimore City exercising jurisdiction over the subject matter of such dispute(s).

purpose of any dispute 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 to such court's exercise of personal jurisdiction over the Party in any such dispute, (v) 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, and (vi) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such dispute shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.2. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 10.8 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties. This Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10.9 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur to the non-breaching party if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach. It is accordingly agreed that, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 9, each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent one or more breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at Law or in equity.

Section 10.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, COMPLAINT, CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD-PARTY CLAIM, ANSWER, OR OTHER PLEADING OR PAPER ANCILLARY THERETO, DEMAND OR REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND FURTHER AGREES THAT ANY SUCH DEMAND OR REQUEST WOULD BE VOID AB INITIO AND INVALID, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY MAY HAVE INITIATED SUCH DEMAND OR REQUEST. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.10.

Section 10.11 Authorship.

Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, Company, REIT II, MVP Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and, with respect to specific provisions, Advisor, have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended from time to time, the "Merger Agreement"), which sets forth certain rights and obligations of the parties thereto;

WHEREAS, upon the consummation of the Merger, the Parties desire to terminate the Advisory Agreement, dated as of September 25, 2012, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Advisory Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2013, between Company and Advisor (collectively, the "REIT I Advisory Agreement"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, Advisor desires to waive any fees payable to Advisor in connection with the Merger or the termination of the REIT I Advisory Agreement; and

WHEREAS, upon the consummation of the Merger, Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Advisor Acquisition Payment (as defined below) from REIT II, as contemplated by this Agreement and Section 9(a) of the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement among REIT II, REIT II OP and Advisor (the "REIT II Advisory Agreement" and, together with the REIT I Advisory Agreement, the "Advisory Agreements").

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

TERMINATION OF REIT I ADVISORY AGREEMENT

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.
