If the Company’s Board of Directors, upon its initial review of any investment, but not thereafter, disapproves any investment made by the Advisor on behalf of the Company, the Advisor agrees to purchase such investment from the Company on terms at least as favorable to the Company as the terms of the Advisor’s initial purchase of the investment on the Company’s behalf.

4. No Partnership or Joint Venture. The Company and the Advisor are not, and shall not be deemed to be, partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing herein shall be construed so as to make them such partners or joint venturers or to impose any liability as such on either of them.

5. Records. The Advisor shall keep proper books of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Directors at anytime during ordinary business hours.

6. REIT Qualification. The Advisor shall refrain from any action which, in its judgment or in the judgment of the Directors, would adversely affect the qualification of the Company as a REIT under the Code or which would violate any law, rule or regulation of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Company or the Shares or which would otherwise not be permitted by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

7. Bank Accounts. The Advisor may establish and maintain one or more bank accounts in its own name and may collect and deposit into and disburse from such accounts any money on behalf of the Company, under such terms and conditions as the Directors may approve, provided that no funds in any such account shall be commingled with funds of any other Person, including the Advisor, any Affiliates of the Advisor, or any other investment program administered by the Advisor or its Affiliates. The Advisor shall from time to time render appropriate accounting of such collections, deposits and payments to the Directors and to the auditors of the Company.

8. Information Furnished to Advisor. The Company’s Directors shall at all times keep the Advisor informed concerning the Company’s investment, financial and operating policies. The Company shall make available to the Advisor a certified copy of all financial statements, a signed copy of each report prepared by independent certified public accountants and such other information and documents with regard to its affairs as the Advisor may reasonably request.

9. Compensation. Subject to Section 12 hereof, the Company shall compensate the Advisor for its services hereunder as follows:

a. Management Fee. For its services in evaluating, selecting and acquiring First Mortgage Loans and Interim Investments for the Company, and for managing the Company’s First Mortgage Loans and Interim Investments, the Advisor will receive a management fee (the “Management Fee”) for each fiscal quarter at the end of which the Shareholders’ Cumulative Return on Capital Investment is at least 12.7%, which will equal 30% of the Available Cash in excess of that necessary to provide a Shareholder’s Cumulative Return on Capital Investment equal to 12.7%.

b. Servicing Fee. For its efforts in servicing the Mortgage Loans owned by the Company, the Advisor will receive a servicing fee (the “Servicing Fee”), payable quarterly, equal to 1/16 of 1% of the Aggregate Outstanding Loan Balance as of the first day of each fiscal quarter. The Advisor will be compensated at this same rate for any First Mortgage Loans serviced by the Advisor after the termination of the Company’s existence.

10. Expenses of the Advisor. The Advisor will be responsible for paying all of its overhead expenses such as personnel, rent and other office expenses. Subject to Section 12 hereof, the Company will reimburse the Advisor quarterly for its additional expenses incurred in the performance of its duties hereunder (“Servicing Expenses”), including but not limited to the following:

d. All fees and expenses incurred in foreclosing on and disposing of the Real Property serving as security for the First Mortgage Loans (including but not limited to legal fees, brokerage and sales commissions and insurance premiums);

e. Expenses connected with payments of dividends or Distributions to Shareholders; and

f. Copying and mailing charges relating to preparing and mailing periodic reports to Shareholders.

11. Compensation for Additional Services. Subject to Section 12 hereof, if the Company shall request the Advisor (or any Affiliate or any Officer or employee thereof) to render services for the Company other than those required to be rendered by the Advisor hereunder, such additional services if performed will be compensated separately on terms to be agreed upon between such person and the Directors, a majority of whom will be Unaffiliated Directors, from time to time.

12.1 Maximum Operating Expenses. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Total Operating Expenses of the Company in any fiscal year shall not exceed the greater of 2% of the Company’s Average Invested Assets or 25% of its net income for that year (the “Maximum Limit”). Any expenses of the Company which exceed the

Maximum Limit shall be deemed “Excess Operating Expenses.” Provided, however, that the Company’s Total Operating Expenses may exceed the Maximum Limit if the Unaffiliated Directors determine that such Excess Operating Expenses are justified and the Directors set forth such determination and the reasons therefor in the minutes or other records of meetings of the Board.

12.2 Notification to Shareholders and/or Refund Excess Operating Expenses. Within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which the Company experienced Excess Operating Expenses, the Company shall send to Shareholders a written disclosure of such fact and, if applicable, the reasons the Unaffiliated Directors determined such Excess Operating Expenses were justified. In the event the Unaffiliated Directors determine that all or a portion of the Excess Operating Expenses were not justified, the Advisor will promptly, following the end of the 60 day period, pay to the Company that portion of the compensation paid to the Advisor during such period necessary to reduce the Company’s Total Operating Expenses to a level acceptable to the Unaffiliated Directors or to the Maximum Limit, whichever is higher.

13. Statements. The Advisor will promptly furnish to the Company quarterly statements evidencing the fees and expenses paid to the Advisor under Sections 9, 10, 11 and 12 hereof and the computation of those fees and expenses with respect to the fiscal quarter then ended. All calculations of the fees paid hereunder shall be reported upon by the Company’s independent public accountants.

14. Other Activities of the Advisor. Nothing in this Agreement will prevent the Advisor or any of its officers, directors or employees or

any of its Affiliates from engaging in other business activities related to real estate investments, from purchasing or originating First Mortgage Loans, from making investments permitted by the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or from acting as advisor to any other person or entity even though that person or entity has investment policies similar to those of the Company (including another REIT). Provided, however, that the Advisor must: (i) periodically provide the Company’s Board of Directors with detailed information as to all investments which are within the investment objectives and policies of the Company made by the Advisor or any of its Affiliates or placed by the Advisor for the account of others, and (ii) periodically present the Company’s Board of Directors with investment opportunities which are consistent with the investment objectives and policies of the Company and which are representative of, comparable with, and or similar terms as, investments being made by the Advisor or being offered and placed by the Advisor for the account of others. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or Advisor from purchasing a First Mortgage Loan from a third party represented by an Affiliate, so long as the purchase of such First Mortgage Loan is approved by the Company’s Directors, a majority of whom shall be Unaffiliated Directors, and the compensation paid for such First Mortgage Loan is not greater than the Company would pay if it were purchasing the First Mortgage Loan from a non-affiliate. No First Mortgage Loan made to the Advisor or any of its Affiliates will be originated or purchased by the Company, except with the express prior approval of a majority of the Unaffiliated Directors of the Company.

15. Director Action. Wherever action on the part of the Company or its Directors is contemplated in this Agreement, unless otherwise provided herein, action by a majority of the Directors shall constitute the action provided for herein.

Notice of renewal shall be given in writing by the Company to the Advisor not less than 30 days before the expiration of this Agreement or of any extension thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated for any reason upon 60 days’ written notice by a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors and, after the expiration of the original term, upon 120 days’ written notice by the Advisor.

17. Amendments. This Agreement shall not be modified or terminated except by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto or otherwise as provided herein. Any amendment to this Agreement shall require the affirmative vote or written consent of a majority of the Unaffiliated Directors.

18. Assignment. The Advisor may not assign this Agreement without the consent of the Company. The Company may terminate this Agreement immediately in the event by the Advisor attempts to assign the Agreement without the consent of the Company. This Agreement shall not be assignable by the Company without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of assignment by the Company to a successor to the Company. Any permitted assignment of this Agreement shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the assignor is bound hereunder.

19. Action Upon Termination. The Advisor shall not be entitled to compensation after the date of termination of this Agreement for further services hereunder but shall be reimbursed for all expenses and shall be paid all compensation accruing through the termination date, including a pro rata portion of the Management Fee, if any, payable to the Advisor pursuant to Section 9(b).

The Advisor will not be liable to the Company for any liability incurred to any party as a result of: (i) any action taken by the Company in following or declining to follow the advice, or affirming or rejecting the investment decisions of, the Advisor; or (ii) any action taken or omitted in good faith in reliance upon advice it received from its legal counsel, independent public accountants or other professional advisors. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Advisor and its directors, officers and employees against any claims arising out of or based upon acts which do not constitute bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their duties.

22. Notices. Any communications given hereunder shall be in writing delivered at the address of the respective party at which that party most recently has established its principal office, or at such other address as a party shall have specified to the other party, in writing, as the address for notices hereunder.
