Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

First Amendment to Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement

On March 29, 2011, Carter Validus Mission Critical REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement dated November 26, 2010, by and among the Company, Carter/Validus Operating Partnership, LP and the Carter/Validus Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). The First Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, revises and clarifies certain fees and expenses payable to the Advisor. Pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment, the Company will defer the amount of asset management fees that in a particular period would be equal to that amount by which distributions exceed the modified funds from operations. In addition, the First Amendment provides that the Company will reimburse the Advisor for organization and offering expenses to the extent that such reimbursement would not cause the selling commissions, the dealer manager fee and the other organization and offering expenses borne by the Company to exceed 15% of the gross proceeds raised by the Company in its initial public offering (the “Offering”).

The material terms of the First Amendment are qualified in their entirety by the First Amendment filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.03(a)    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws

The Company amended its charter (the “Charter Amendment”). The primary purpose of the Charter Amendment is to prohibit reimbursements by the Company for costs of personnel of the Advisor or its affiliates to the extent that such personnel perform services in connection with services for which the Advisor receives an acquisition/advisory fee and/or real estate commissions. Prior to the Charter Amendment, the Company was prohibited to reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates for all services for which the Advisor or its affiliates were entitled to compensation in the form of a separate fee.

The Charter Amendment was filed with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation and became effective on March 30, 2011. The material terms of the Charter Amendment are qualified in their entirety by the Charter Amendment filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
