The Subordinated Disposition Fee will be paid only if Stockholders have received total Distributions in an amount equal to the sum of their aggregate Invested Capital and their aggregate Stockholders’ 6% Return. To the extent that Subordinated Disposition Fees are not paid by the Company on a current basis due to the foregoing limitation, the unpaid fees will be accrued and paid at such time as the subordination conditions have been satisfied. The Subordinated Disposition Fee may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total real estate commissions paid to all Persons by the Company shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6% of the Contract Sales Price of a Property or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission.

Upon Listing, if the Advisor has accrued but not been paid such Subordinated Disposition Fee, then for purposes of determining whether the subordination conditions have been satisfied, Stockholders will be deemed to have received a Distribution in the amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing price of the Shares over a period, beginning 180 days after Listing, of 30 days during which the Shares are traded.

(c) Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds. The Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds shall be payable to the Advisor in an amount equal to 10% of Net Sales Proceeds remaining after the Stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of the Stockholders’ 6% Return and 100% of Invested Capital. Following Listing, no Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds will be paid to the Advisor.

(d) Subordinated Incentive Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor shall be paid the Subordinated Incentive Fee in an amount equal to 10% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the Company, measured by taking the average closing price or

average of bid and asked price, as the case may be, over a period of 30 days during which the Shares are traded, with such period beginning 180 days after Listing (the “Market Value”), plus the total Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company’s inception until the date of Listing, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital and (B) the total Dividends required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders’ 6% Return from inception through the date the Market Value is determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a promissory note or any combination of the foregoing.

(e) Loans from Affiliates. If any loans are made to the Company by an Affiliate of the Advisor, the maximum amount of interest that may be charged by such Affiliate shall be the lesser of (i) 1.0% above the prime rate of interest charged from time to time by The Bank of New York and (ii) the rate that would be charged to the Company by unrelated lending institutions on comparable loans for the same purpose. The terms of any such loans shall be no less favorable than the terms available between non-Affiliated Persons for similar commercial loans.

(f) Changes to Fee Structure. In the event of Listing, the Company and the Advisor shall negotiate in good faith to establish a fee structure appropriate for a perpetual-life entity. A majority of the Independent Directors must approve the new fee structure negotiated with the Advisor. In negotiating a new fee structure, the Independent Directors shall consider all of the factors they deem relevant, including, but not limited to: (i) the amount of the advisory fee in relation to the asset value, composition and profitability of the Company’s portfolio; (ii) the success of the Advisor in generating opportunities that meet the investment objectives of the Company; (iii) the rates charged to other REITs and to investors other than REITs by advisors performing the same or similar services; (iv) additional revenues realized by the Advisor and its Affiliates through their relationship with the Company, including loan administration, underwriting or broker commissions, servicing, engineering, inspection and other fees, whether paid by the REIT or by others with whom the REIT does business; (v) the quality and extent of service and advice furnished by the Advisor; (vi) the performance of the investment portfolio of the REIT, including income, conversion or appreciation of capital, and number and frequency of problem investments; and (vii) the quality of the Property portfolio of the Company in relationship to the investments generated by the Advisor for its own account.

(a) In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Paragraph 9 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor in connection with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:

(i) the Company’s Organizational and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that the Company shall have no obligation to reimburse such expenses until it has raised gross proceeds in the offering of $2.5 million and provided further that within 60 days after the end of the month in which the Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company for any Organizational and Offering Expenses reimbursement received by the Advisor pursuant to this Paragraph 10, to the extent that such reimbursement exceeds 2% of the Gross Proceeds. The Advisor shall be responsible for the payment of all the Company’s Organizational and Offering Expenses in excess of 2% of the Gross Proceeds;

(ii) Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of Properties at the lesser of the actual cost or 90% of the competitive rate charged by unaffiliated persons providing similar goods and services in the same geographic location;

(iii) the actual cost of goods and services used by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor, other than Acquisition Expenses, including brokerage fees paid in connection with the purchase and sale of securities;

(iv) interest and other costs for borrowed money, including discounts, points and other similar fees;

(v) taxes and assessments on income or Property and taxes as an expense of doing business;

(vi) costs associated with insurance required in connection with the business of the Company or by the Directors:

(vii) expenses of managing and operating Properties owned by the Company, whether payable to an Affiliate of the Company or a non-affiliated Person.

(viii) all expenses in connection with payments to the Directors and meetings of the Directors and Stockholders;

(ix) expenses associated with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of Shares and Securities, such as selling commissions and fees, advertising expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, Listing and registration fees, and other Organization and Offering Expenses;

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

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

(xii) expenses of maintaining communications with Stockholders, including the cost of preparation, printing, and mailing annual reports and other Stockholder reports, proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities;

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

(b) Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and payable pursuant to this Paragraph 10 shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company during each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company within 45 days after the end of each quarter.

11. Other Services. Should the Directors request that the Advisor or director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Paragraph 3, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Independent Directors of the Company, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

12. Fidelity Bond. The Advisor shall maintain a fidelity bond for the benefit of the Company which bond shall insure the Company from losses of up to $10 million per occurrence and shall be of the type customarily purchased by entities performing services similar to those provided to the Company by the Advisor.

13. Reimbursement to the Advisor. The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter Operating Expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”) exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) for such year. Any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If there is an Excess Amount in any Expense Year and the Independent Directors determine that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, the Excess Amount may be carried over and included in Operating Expenses in subsequent Expense Years, and reimbursed to the Advisor in one or more of such years, provided that Operating Expenses in any Expense Year, including any Excess Amount to be paid to the Advisor, shall not exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines. Within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, there shall be sent to the stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Independent Directors considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. Such determination

shall be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors. The Company will not reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates for services for which the Advisor or its Affiliates are entitled to compensation in the form of a separate fee. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

14. Other Activities of the Advisor. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor may, with respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor shall report to the Directors the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor or its Affiliates shall promptly disclose to the Directors knowledge of such condition or circumstance. If the Sponsor, Advisor, Director or Affiliates thereof have sponsored other investment programs with similar investment objectives which have investment funds available at the same time as the Company, it shall be the duty of the Directors (including the Independent Directors) to adopt the method set forth in the Registration Statement or another reasonable method by which properties are to be allocated to the competing investment entities and to use their best efforts to apply such method fairly to the Company.

The Advisor shall be required to use its best efforts to present a continuing and suitable investment program to the Company which is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company, but neither the Advisor nor any Affiliate of the Advisor shall be obligated generally to present any particular investment opportunity to the Company even if the opportunity is of character which, if presented to the Company, could be taken by the Company. The Advisor or its Affiliates may make such an investment in a property only after (i) such investment has been offered to the Company and all public partnerships and other investment entities affiliated with the Company with funds available for such investment and (ii) such investment is found to be unsuitable for investment by the Company, such partnerships and investment entities.

In the event that the Advisor or its Affiliates is presented with a potential investment which might be made by the Company and by another investment entity which the Advisor or its Affiliates advises or manages, the Advisor shall consider the investment portfolio of each entity, cash flow of each entity, the effect of the acquisition on the diversification of each entity’s portfolio, rental payments during any renewal period, the estimated income tax effects of the purchase on each entity, the policies of each entity relating to leverage, the funds of each entity available for investment and the

length of time such funds have been available for investment. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available which is suitable for both the Company and a public or private entity which the Advisor or its Affiliates are Affiliated, then the entity which has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity will first be offered the investment opportunity. The Advisor may consider the property for private placement only if such property is deemed inappropriate for any investment entity which is advised or managed by the Advisor, including the Company.

15. Relationship of Advisor and Company. The Company and the Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as such on either of them.

16. Term; Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in force until the first anniversary of the date hereof, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties. It is the duty of the Directors to evaluate the performance of the Advisor or annually before renewing the Agreement, and each such renewal shall be for a term of no more than one year.

17. Termination by Either Party. This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice without Cause or penalty, by either party (by a majority of the Independent Directors of the Company or a majority of the Board of Directors of the Advisor, as the case may be).

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

19. Payments to and Duties of Advisor upon Termination. Payments to the Advisor pursuant to this Section 19 shall be subject to the 2%/25% Guidelines to the extent applicable.

(a) After the Termination Date, the Advisor shall not be entitled to compensation for further services hereunder except it shall be entitled to receive from the Company within 30 days after the effective date of such termination all unpaid reimbursements of expenses and all earned but unpaid fees payable to the Advisor prior to termination of this Agreement.

(b) Upon termination, the Advisor shall be entitled to payment of the Performance Fee if performance standards satisfactory to a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, when compared to (a) the performance of the Advisor in comparison with its performance for other entities, and (b) the performance of other advisors for similar entities, have been met. If Listing has not occurred, the Performance Fee, if any, shall equal 10% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the appraised value of the Properties on the Termination Date, less the amount of all indebtedness secured by Properties and Secured Equipment Leases, plus the total Distributions paid to stockholders from the Company’s inception through the Termination Date, exceeds (ii) Invested Capital plus an amount equal to the Stockholders’ 6% Return from inception through the Termination Date. The Advisor shall be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid compensation and expense reimbursements in cash within 30 days of the Termination Date. All other amounts payable to the Advisor in the event of a termination shall be evidenced by a promissory note and shall be payable from time to time.

(c) The Performance Fee shall be paid in 12 equal quarterly installments without interest on the unpaid balance, provided, however, that no payment will be made in any quarter in which such payment would jeopardize the Company’s REIT status, in which case any such payment or payments will be delayed until the next quarter in which payment would not jeopardize REIT status. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any amounts which may be deemed payable at the date the obligation to pay the Performance Fee is incurred which relate to the appreciation of the Company’s Properties shall be an amount which provides compensation to the Advisor only for that portion of the holding period for the respective Properties during which the Advisor provided services to the Company.

(d) If Listing occurs, the Performance Fee, if any, payable thereafter will be as negotiated between the Company and the Advisor. The Advisor shall not be entitled to payment of the Performance Fee in the event this Agreement is terminated because of failure of the Company and the Advisor to establish, pursuant to Paragraph 9(h) hereof, a fee structure appropriate for a perpetual-life entity at such time, if any, as Listing occurs.

(i) pay over to the Company all money collected and held for the account of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, after deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which it is then entitled;

(ii) deliver to the Directors a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last accounting furnished to the Directors;

(iii) deliver to the Directors all assets, including Properties, and documents of the Company then in the custody of the Advisor; and

20. Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor and its Affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, partners and employees, from all liability, claims, damages or losses arising in the performance of their duties hereunder, and related expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such liability, claims, damages or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance, subject to any limitations imposed by the laws of the State of Maryland or the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor shall not be entitled to indemnification or be held harmless pursuant to this Paragraph 20 for any activity which the Advisor shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless the Company pursuant to Paragraph 21. Any indemnification of the Advisor may be made only out of the net assets of the Company and not from Stockholders.

21. Indemnification by Advisor. The Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company from contract or other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys’ fees, to the extent that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, willful misfeasance, misconduct, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties, but the Advisor shall not be held responsible for any action of the Board of Directors in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendation given by the Advisor.

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

Either party may at any time give notice in writing to the other party of a change in its address for the purposes of this Paragraph 22.

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

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

25. Construction. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.

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

27. Indulgences, Not Waivers. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

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

29. Titles Not to Affect Interpretation. The titles of paragraphs and subparagraphs contained in this Agreement are for convenience only, and they neither form a part of this Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation hereof.

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

31. Name. Wells Capital, Inc. has a proprietary interest in the name “Wells.” Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company ceases to retain Wells Capital, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof to perform the services of Advisor, the Directors of the Company will, promptly after receipt of written request from Wells

Capital, Inc., cease to conduct business under or use the name “Wells” or any diminutive thereof and the Company shall use its best efforts to change the name of the Company to a name that does not contain the name “Wells” or any other word or words that might, in the sole discretion of the Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and the Advisor or any Affiliate thereof. Consistent with the foregoing, it is specifically recognized that the Advisor or one or more of its Affiliates has in the past and may in the future organize, sponsor or otherwise permit to exist other investment vehicles (including vehicles for investment in real estate) and financial and service organizations having “Wells” as a part of their name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by the Company or its Board.

32. Initial Investment. The Advisor has contributed to the Company $200,000 in exchange for 20,000 units of limited partnership interest (“Units”) in Wells Operating Partnership II, L.P. (“Units”) (the “Initial Investment”). The Advisor or its Affiliates may not sell any of the Units purchased with the Initial Investment for a period of one year following completion of the Offering and may only sell Units or the Shares issuable upon the redemption of the Units representing the Initial Investment through the market on which the Shares are normally traded. The restrictions included above shall not apply to any Shares, other than the Shares acquired through the Initial Investment, acquired by the Advisor or its Affiliates. The Advisor shall not vote any Shares it now owns, or hereafter acquires, in any vote for the election of Directors or any vote regarding the approval or termination of any contract with the Advisor or any of its Affiliates.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Advisory Agreement as of the date and year first above written.
