EQUITY PURCHASE AGREEMENT

EQUITY PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of September 30, 2014 (as it may be amended or supplemented, this “Agreement”), by and between ARC Properties Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Seller”), and RCS Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”). Each of Seller and Buyer may be referred to herein as a “party” and collectively as the “parties.”

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, through the Acquired Companies (as defined below) and their respective Subsidiaries, Seller is engaged in the private capital management business, including the broker-dealer, wholesale distribution, non-traded REIT sponsorship and advisory businesses (referred to herein, together with all related intellectual property and all other related assets and properties, as the “Business”);

WHEREAS, Seller and Buyer wish to effect a strategic transaction pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller will sell to Buyer, and Buyer will purchase from Seller, all of the outstanding Equity Interests held by Seller in each of Cole Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CCP”), and Cole Capital Advisors, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CCA” and, together with CCP, the “Acquired Companies”), such that, immediately following the consummation of the transaction, Buyer, through the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, will be engaged in the Business;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of American Realty Capital Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation and the general partner of Seller (“Seller GP”), has (a) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are advisable and in the best interests of Seller, and (b) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Buyer has (a) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are advisable and in the best interests of Buyer, and (b) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

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

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Second Closing, Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from Seller, free and clear of all Liens, all of the outstanding Equity Interests in each of the Acquired Companies (the “Acquired Interests”).

Section 1.2 Consideration. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in consideration for the purchase of the Acquired Interests pursuant to Section 1.1:

(a) at the First Closing, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller or its designee cash in an amount equal to $10 million (the “Initial Closing Consideration”).

(b) at the Second Closing, Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller, an unsecured note of Buyer in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Buyer Note”).

(c) at the Second Closing, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller cash in an amount equal to $65 million (the “Second Closing Cash Consideration”).

(d) if the Second Closing has occurred, then, on April 1, 2015, Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller the following aggregate consideration (the “Deferred Consideration” and together with the Buyer Note and the Second Closing Cash Consideration, the “Closing Consideration”):

(i) cash in an amount equal to $125 million, plus, if applicable, an amount equal to the 2015 Excess Stock Amount; and

(ii) as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion, either:

(x) 8,397,857 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Buyer Shares”) of Class A common stock, par value $0.001, of Buyer (the “Buyer Class A Stock”), provided, however, if such number of shares is greater than a number representing nineteen and nine tenths percent (19.9%) of the shares of Buyer Class A Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2015 (such number, the “2015 Stock Threshold”), then such number of Buyer Shares to be delivered pursuant to this Section 1.2(d)(ii)(x) shall be reduced to the 2015 Stock Threshold; or

(y) cash in the amount equal to $200 million.

For purposes hereof, (i) “2015 Excess Stock Amount” shall mean the number of shares of Buyer Class A Stock in excess of the 2015 Stock Threshold that would have been issued under Section 1.2(d)(ii)(x) but for the proviso thereto, multiplied by the 2015 Buyer VWAP, and (ii) the “2015 Buyer VWAP” shall mean the intraday volume weighted average price of one share of Buyer Class A Stock, as reported by Bloomberg, LP, over the ten (10) trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding April 1, 2015.

(e) if the Second Closing has occurred, then, subject to Section 1.2(f), following the Second Closing, and as additional consideration for the Acquired Interests, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid an earn-out payment or special earn-out payment, if any, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Annex A hereto (the “Contingent Consideration”). The Contingent Consideration, if any, will be paid in cash and/or shares of Buyer Class A Stock in accordance with Annex A hereto.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, at the time Seller is entitled to receive the Deferred Consideration pursuant to Section 1.2(d), the sum of (i) the Gross Income that would be recognized by Seller attributable to the receipt of such Deferred Consideration in the tax year (such Gross Income determined based on the fair market value of the Buyer Shares at the time of their issuance), plus (ii) any other Gross Income that is reasonably expected to be recognized by Seller in the same tax year and that would not qualify as Gross Income under Section 856(c)(3) of the Code (the “Nonqualifying Income”), is reasonably expected to exceed 22.5% of the total Gross Income to be recognized by Seller in such tax year (the “Nonqualifying Income Limitation”), the amount of Deferred Consideration that exceeds the amount of Deferred Consideration Seller could receive pursuant to Section 1.2(d) and not exceed the Nonqualifying Income Limitation shall be deferred (the “Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration”) and Seller shall not be entitled to receive such Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration until the subsequent tax year. If the receipt of the Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration by Seller in such subsequent tax year would reasonably cause Seller to violate the Nonqualifying Income Limitation if applied to such subsequent tax year, the principles of the prior sentence shall be applied to the Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration in order to further defer the receipt by Seller of a sufficient amount of the Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration to subsequent tax years. The Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration payable pursuant to the prior two sentences shall be paid by Buyer to Seller within 5 days after the beginning of the tax year to which such Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration has been deferred. The Buyer shall not redeem, except as otherwise permitted under the Buyer Note, and Seller shall not transfer all or a portion of the Buyer Note in any tax year to the extent the Gross Income that would be recognized by Seller from such redemption or transfer if included in the Nonqualifying Income for such tax year, would cause the total Gross Income to be recognized by Seller in such tax year to exceed the Nonqualifying Income Limitation. The calculations required by this paragraph shall be reasonably determined by Seller in consultation with its external tax accountants. Seller shall notify and provide to Buyer in writing, no later than 5 days prior to the date of a scheduled payment of Deferred Consideration, a copy of such calculations and such notification shall set forth the amount, if any, of such Deferred Consideration that is Deferred Nonqualifying Consideration to be paid in a subsequent taxable year. Buyer shall have no liability to Seller, and shall be held harmless by Seller, in the event that the calculations prepared by Seller are erroneous.

Section 1.3 Purchase Price Allocation. Buyer and Seller agree that the Closing Consideration and the Contingent Consideration, if any, shall be allocated among the assets of CCP, the stock of CCA and the Non-Competition and Exclusivity Agreement in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code (the “Allocation Statement”). Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to determine the Allocation Statement within 30 days following the date on which the Final Closing Statement has been determined in accordance with Section 2.1(b), subject to adjustment in the event of a payment of Contingent Consideration occurring after such determination. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement regarding the allocation, any disagreements shall be resolved by the Auditor and the determination by the Auditor shall be final and binding on the parties. The fees and expenses of the Auditor shall be shared equally by Seller and Buyer. The parties will report, act and file Tax Returns (including IRS Form 8594) in all respects and for all Tax purposes consistent with the Allocation Statement, and the parties and their respective Affiliates will not take any position inconsistent with the Allocation Statement for tax, accounting or financial reporting purposes, unless required to do so by applicable Law.

Section 1.4 Closings. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement:

(a) the closing (i) of the transactions contemplated by Section 1.5 of this Agreement, (the “First Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York, 10153, on the date no later than three (3) Business Days after the date on which the last of the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.2 and Section 7.3 shall have been satisfied or validly waived (subject to applicable Law) (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied (or validly waived) at the First Closing, but subject to such satisfaction or valid waiver), unless such time or date is extended by mutual agreement of the parties (the “First Closing Date”), and (ii) of the transactions contemplated by Section 1.6 of this Agreement (the “Second Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York, 10153, on the date no later than three (3) Business Days after the date on which the last of the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.4, Section 7.5 and 7.6 shall have been satisfied or validly waived (subject to applicable Law) (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied (or validly waived) at the Second Closing, but subject to such satisfaction or valid waiver), unless such time or date is extended by mutual agreement of the parties (the “Second Closing Date”);

WORKING CAPITAL ADJUSTMENT

Section 2.1 Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) No less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Second Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a written closing statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) of the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, including the resulting Estimated Closing Net Working Capital Overage (if any) or Estimated Closing Net Working Capital Shortage (if any), which Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with Seller’s accounting principles, policies and methodologies used in connection with the preparation of the Financial Statements.

(b) No more than forty-five (45) days after the Second Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement (the “Final Closing Statement”), as of the Second Closing Date, of the Final Closing Net Working Capital, including the resulting Final Closing Net Working Capital Overage (if any) or Final Closing Net Working Capital Shortage (if any), and including a reasonably detailed breakdown of the various amounts of each component of Net Working Capital, which Final Closing Statement shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with Seller’s accounting principles, policies and methodologies used in connection with the preparation of the Financial Statements.

(c) No less than five (5) Business Days following the date hereof, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer an illustrative example of the Final Closing Statement (including calculations of Net Working Capital), calculated as if the Second Closing Date were June 30, 2014.

(d) If Seller disagrees with the calculation of any amounts on the Final Closing Statement, Seller shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Final Closing Statement, notify Buyer of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in detail the particulars of such disagreement. Buyer will provide Seller with reasonable access upon reasonable notice to any of Buyer’s records and relevant employees not otherwise available to Seller as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, to the extent reasonably related to Seller’s review of the Final Closing Statement. If Seller does not provide such notice of disagreement within the thirty (30)-day period, Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Final Closing Statement and the calculation of all amounts set forth thereon, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for purposes of this Agreement and not subject to any further recourse by Seller or its Affiliates. If any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts for a period of five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculation of any and all amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement. If, at the end of such period, Seller and Buyer are unable to fully resolve the disagreements, the Auditor shall resolve any remaining disagreements. The Auditor shall be instructed to (i) consider only such matters as to which there is a disagreement, (ii) determine, as promptly as practicable, whether the disputed amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement were prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) deliver, as promptly as practicable, to Seller and Buyer its determination in writing. The resolution for each disputed item contained in the Auditor’s determination shall be made subject to the definitions and principles set forth in this Agreement, and shall be consistent with either the position of Seller or Buyer. Seller and Buyer shall bear their own expenses in the preparation and review of the Estimated Closing Statement and Final Closing Statement. The fees and expenses of the Auditor shall be allocated between Seller on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Auditor, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Auditor at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. The determination of the Auditor shall be final, binding and conclusive for purposes of this Agreement and not subject to any further recourse by Seller, Buyer or their respective Affiliates. Any dispute with respect to the Final Closing Statement will not affect any undisputed amounts in the Final Closing Statement. For purposes of this Agreement, the date on which the amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement are finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.1(d) shall be the “Determination Date.”

(e) Promptly after the Determination Date, the Closing Consideration shall be adjusted by an amount (the “Adjustment Amount”) equal to the sum of (i) the Final Closing Net Working Capital Overage (if any) minus

(ii) the Final Closing Net Working Capital Shortage (if any). The Adjustment Amount may be a positive or negative number. If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then the Closing Consideration shall be increased by the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount and Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount in cash equal to the Adjustment Amount, together with interest thereon from and including the Second Closing Date through and including the date immediately prior to the payment date at a rate of 1.7% per annum, such payment to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller no later than five (5) Business Days after the Determination Date. If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, then the Closing Consideration shall be decreased by the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount, and Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount in cash equal to such absolute value, together with interest thereon from and including the Second Closing Date through and including the date immediately prior to the payment date at a rate of 1.7% per annum, such payment to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer no later than five (5) Business Days after the Determination Date.

Each party shall have the right to review in advance, and, to the extent practicable, each party will consult the other party on, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, all the information relating to such party and any of its Subsidiaries, which appear in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.

(c) Subject to the proviso contained in Section 6.1(b), if any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, each party shall cooperate in all respects with the other party and shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6.1 shall limit a party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b) or Section 9.1(c) so long as such party has, prior to such termination, complied with its obligations under this Section 6.1.

(d) Each party shall give prompt notice to the other party of any Action commenced or, to such party’s actual knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving such party or any of its Subsidiaries or other Persons directly or indirectly controlled by it or any director or manager of any of the foregoing, which relates to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) Each party shall promptly advise the other party upon receiving any communication from any Governmental Entity the consent or approval of which is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that causes such party to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that any Requisite Approval will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such approval may be materially delayed, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, shall promptly provide the other party with a copy of such communication.

Section 6.2 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, afford to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives of the other party, reasonable access, during normal business hours during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Second Closing, to all of such party’s properties, books, contracts, commitments and records, and, during such period, each of the parties shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, make available to the other party all other information concerning such party’s business, properties and personnel as the other party may reasonably request. None of the parties and their Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of such party or its Subsidiaries or contravene any Law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The parties shall make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

(b) All information and materials provided pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, entered into between Seller GP and Buyer on September 3, 2014 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). From and after the Second Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and representatives to, keep confidential and not use for any purpose all nonpublic information regarding the Business or any of the Acquired Companies or their respective Subsidiaries of which Seller or such Affiliates or representatives may be aware (“Business Information”), subject only to the exceptions to the confidentiality and non-use obligations of Seller and such Affiliate and representatives in the Confidentiality Agreement, as applied mutatis mutandis to Seller and such Affiliates and representatives with respect to Business Information.

Section 6.3 Financial Statements. Seller shall deliver to Buyer prior to the Second Closing (i) true and complete copies of combined audited balance sheets for the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2013 and the related combined statements of operations, statements of stockholder’s equity and statements of cash flows for the years then ended and (ii) the unaudited combined balance sheets of the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries as of the most recent quarter required to be filed in reports with the SEC, and the related combined statements of operations, statements of stockholder’s equity and statements of cash flows for the quarter then ended. These audited financial statements and interim financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and fairly present, in all material respects, the combined financial condition, results of operations, stockholder’s equity and cash flows of the

Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries as of the applicable dates or for the applicable periods, in such form as may be required for filing with the SEC. In addition, promptly following Buyer’s request, Seller shall furnish to Buyer such other financial statements as may be required to be included in Seller’s filings with the SEC.

Section 6.4 Legal Conditions. Subject to Section 6.1(b), each of the parties shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts (i) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to comply promptly with all legal requirements that may be imposed on such party or its Subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII, to consummate such transactions, and (ii) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other parties to obtain) any material consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity and any other third party that is required to be obtained by such party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.5 Employee Matters.

(a) Immediately prior to the Second Closing, Seller shall (i) cause the Retained Employees to be employed by Seller or an Affiliate of Seller other than any Acquired Company or Subsidiary of an Acquired Company and (ii) cause the Acquired Companies or their Subsidiaries to, terminate or assign and transfer to an Affiliate of Seller other than any Acquired Company or Subsidiary of an Acquired Company each Acquired Company Benefit Plan and all assets thereof, other than any Acquired Company Benefit Plan listed on Section 6.5(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (each such listed plan an “Assumed Benefit Plan”).

(b) On or following the First Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one if its Affiliates to, make an offer of employment to each of the employees listed in Section 6.5(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (the “Designated Employees”), which employment, with respect to each Designated Employee, shall be effective upon such Designated Employee’s acceptance of such offer (or another date prior to the Second Closing as designated by Buyer). Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer and any such Designated Employee that accepts such offer of employment with regard to the termination of such Designated Employee’s employment with an Acquired Company or any Subsidiary of an Acquired Company. In the event that this Agreement terminates prior to the consummation of the Second Closing, (i) any such offers of employment that have not been accepted by a Designated Employee, or under which a Designated Employee has not yet commenced employment with Buyer, shall be revoked and rescinded, and upon such revocation and rescission, such offers shall have no further force or effect; and (ii) Buyer shall cause the employment of any Designated Employee hired and employed by Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be terminated effective upon the termination of this Agreement, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Company or Subsidiary of an Acquired Company that previously employed such Designated Employee to offer employment to such Designated Employee upon the same terms as applied to such Designated Employee prior to the First Closing.

(c) From and after the Second Closing, any individual who remains employed with an Acquired Company or any Subsidiary of an Acquired Company as of the Second Closing, and from and after the date a Designated Employee begins employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates with respect to those Designated Employees to whom an offer was made in accordance with Section 6.5(b) and accepted (such employees collectively, the “Business Employees”) will participate and be covered or be offered participation and coverage, as applicable, under the applicable Buyer Benefit Plans; provided, that continued participation and coverage following the Second Closing under any Assumed Benefit Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Second Closing shall be deemed to satisfy the obligations under this sentence.

(d) Buyer shall cause each Buyer Benefit Plan in which Business Employees are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit accruals under the Buyer Benefit Plans (other than benefit accruals under any of Buyer’s tax-qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans) the service of such Business Employees with the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries (and any predecessor entities) to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries under a comparable Acquired Company Benefit Plan; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service or with respect to newly implemented plans for which prior service is not taken into account or with respect to plans for which participation, service and/or benefit accrual is frozen. Nothing herein shall limit the ability of Buyer to amend or terminate any of the Assumed Benefit Plans or Buyer Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms at any time.

(e) At and following the Second Closing, Buyer will honor the accrued and vested obligations of the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries as of the Second Closing under the provisions of the Assumed Benefit Plans, provided, that this provision shall not prevent Buyer from amending, suspending or terminating any such plans or agreements to the extent permitted by the respective terms of such plans or agreements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to be an amendment to any Acquired Company Benefit Plan (including any Assumed Benefit Plan), Buyer Benefit Plan or any other compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement of Buyer, Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries.

(f) If Business Employees become eligible to participate in a medical, dental or other health care insurance plan of Buyer, Buyer shall cause each such plan to (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations to the extent such conditions are covered under the applicable medical, health or dental plans of Buyer, (ii) honor under such plans any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such employees and their beneficiaries during the portion of the calendar year prior to such participation and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement which would otherwise be applicable to such employee on or after the Second Closing for the year in which the Second Closing or participation in such medical, dental or other health care insurance plan of Buyer, as applicable, occurs, in each case to the extent such employee had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous medical, dental or other health care insurance plan of Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Second Closing for the year in which the Second Closing or participation in such medical, dental or health care insurance plan of Buyer, as applicable, occurs.

(g) To the extent any employee of an Acquired Company or a Subsidiary of an Acquired Company (including any Designated Employee), other than a Retained Employee, does not become a Business Employee, Buyer shall be solely responsible for, and Seller shall have no responsibility, liability or obligation for, any and all cash severance amounts payable to such employees in connection with their termination of employment from an Acquired Company or Affiliate of an Acquired Company, as applicable, other than amounts payable with respect to the termination or accelerated vesting of any equity-related rights (i.e., restricted stock) held by such employees as of the date of termination.

(h) Without limiting the generality of Section 10.9, this Section 6.5 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 6.5, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person, including any current or former director, officer or employee the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 6.5.

Section 6.6 Additional Agreements. In case at any time after the Second Closing any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest Buyer with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the Acquired Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, the proper officers and directors of each party and its Subsidiaries shall take all such necessary action as may be reasonably requested by, and at the sole expense of, Buyer.

Section 6.7 Advice of Changes. Each party shall promptly advise the other parties of any change or event (i) having or reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller or Material Adverse Effect on Buyer, as the case may be, or (ii) that it believes would or would be reasonably likely to cause or constitute a material breach of any of such party’s representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; provided, further, that a failure to comply with this Section 6.7 shall not constitute (i) the failure of any condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied unless the underlying Material Adverse Effect on Seller or Material Adverse Effect on Buyer, as applicable, or material breach would independently result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied or (ii) a breach of covenant or agreement pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(y) or Section 8.2(b)(y).

Section 6.8 General Release of Claims. Effective as of the Second Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) (collectively, the “Releasing Persons”), hereby irrevocably releases and forever discharges each of the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries (for the benefit of Buyer and its respective Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies) and their respective parents, subsidiaries, Affiliates, divisions and predecessors and their respective past and present directors, managers, officers, employees and agents, and each of their respective successors, heirs, assigns, executors and administrators (collectively, the “Released Persons”)) of and from all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, suits, rights, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, bonds, bills, covenants, contracts, controversies, omissions, promises, variances, trespasses, losses, judgments, executions, claims and demands whatsoever, in Law or in equity that any of the Releasing Persons ever had, now has or which it hereafter can, shall or may have, against the Released Persons, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, for, upon or by reason of any matter or cause arising at any time prior to the Second Closing, other than as provided in or contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (it being expressly understood and agreed that there shall be no release or waiver with respect to any of the matters set forth in Section 10.1).

Section 6.9 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Indemnification by Seller. From and after the Second Closing, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid, and shall indemnify Buyer and each of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries after the Closing Date) (collectively, the “Buyer Tax Indemnified Parties”) and hold each Buyer Tax Indemnified Party harmless from and against: (A) any Taxes imposed on the Acquired Companies or any of their Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Period; (B) any Taxes of Seller or any of its affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies or any of their Subsidiaries) for which any of the Acquired Companies or any of their Subsidiaries is liable under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or under any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law); (C) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on an Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries as a result of any Tax Sharing Agreement or Tax allocation agreement, arrangement, or understanding entered into by such Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Second Closing; (D) any Taxes resulting from any transfer of assets or employees or restructuring in anticipation of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Restructuring Transactions contemplated by Section 6.10); (E) any Taxes arising out of or relating to any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.9(m); (F) any Taxes arising out of or relating to any breach of any covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement; (G) any Transfer Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.9(i); and (H) any costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses attributable to any item described in clauses (A) to (G) in each case except to the extent a liability or reserve for such Taxes was reflected in the calculation of the Final Acquired Companies’ Indebtedness or the Final Closing Net Working Capital.

(b) Tax Indemnification by Buyer.

(c) Straddle Periods. To the extent permitted or required by applicable Law, the taxable year of each Acquired Company and its Subsidiaries that includes the Second Closing Date shall be treated as closing on (and including) the Second Closing Date. To the extent not so permitted or required by applicable Law, for purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, (i) Taxes of an Acquired Company and its Subsidiaries imposed on a periodic basis and not based on income, or any transaction or event (such as real or personal property Taxes) allocable to the Pre-Closing Period shall be equal to the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes of an Acquired Company and its Subsidiaries allocable to the Pre-Closing Period, such Taxes shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the end of the day on the Second Closing

Date; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Second Closing Date and the period beginning after the Second Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period.

(d) Tax Returns.

(i) Seller shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared any Tax Return that is required to be filed by or with respect to an Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries for any taxable period that ends on or before the Second Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”).

Seller shall pay to Buyer at least five (5) days prior to the due date for filing such Straddle Period Tax Returns (taking into account any extensions) the amount of any Taxes shown as due thereon allocable (as determined under Section 6.9(c)) to the Pre-Closing Period (other than to the extent a liability or reserve for such Taxes was reflected in the calculation of the Final Acquired Companies’ Indebtedness or the Final Closing Net Working Capital).

(e) Tax Contests.

(i) If any Taxing Authority asserts a Tax Claim, then the party to this Agreement first receiving notice of such Tax Claim promptly shall provide written notice thereof to the other party to this Agreement; provided, however, that the failure of such party to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its obligations under this Section 6.9, except to the extent that the other party is actually prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax Claim and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the Taxing Authority.

(ii) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to an Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries for any taxable period ending on or before the Second Closing Date, Seller shall have the right to control such Tax Proceeding; provided, however, that Seller shall (x) keep Buyer reasonably informed with respect to such Tax Proceeding, (y) consult Buyer before taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Proceeding, and (z) to the extent that a settlement or compromise of such Tax Proceeding could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies or any of their Subsidiaries), not settle or compromise such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(iii) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to an Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period, Buyer shall have the right to control such Tax Proceeding; provided, however,

(f) Cooperation and Exchange of Information.

(i) Each party to this Agreement shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide to the other party to this Agreement such cooperation, documentation and information as either of them reasonably may request in (i) filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, (ii) determining a liability for Taxes or an indemnity obligation under this Section 6.9 or a right to refund of Taxes, or (iii) conducting any Tax Proceeding. Such cooperation and information shall include providing necessary powers of attorney, copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with all relevant portions of relevant accompanying schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Taxing Authorities and relevant records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property and other information, which any such party may possess. Each party shall make its employees reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis at its cost to provide an explanation of any documents or information so provided.

(ii) Each party shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, and all material records and other documents relating to Tax matters, of the relevant entities for their respective Tax periods ending on or prior to the Second Closing Date until the later of (x) the expiration of the statute of limitations for the Tax periods to which the Tax Returns and other documents relate, or (y) eight (8) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. Thereafter, the party holding such Tax Returns or other documents may dispose of them after offering the other party reasonable notice and opportunity to take possession of such Tax Returns and other documents at such other party’s own expense.

(g) After the Second Closing, all refunds received by Buyer or any of its affiliates (including the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries) for Taxes of an Acquired Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Period (other than (i) any refund of Taxes attributable to, or resulting from, a carry back of any item of loss, deduction, credit or other similar item arising in a Post-Closing Period or, in the case of a refund of Taxes for a Straddle Period, the use of the prorated amount of any such item that arises in a Post-Closing Period and (ii) any refund reflected as an asset in the Final Closing Net Working Capital) shall be for the account of Seller and shall be paid by Buyer to Seller, net of expenses and net of any Taxes imposed on or resulting from the receipt of such refund. The amount of any other refund of Taxes shall be for the account of Buyer. To the extent that a refund that gives rise to a payment to Seller hereunder is subsequently disallowed or otherwise reduced, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of such disallowed or reduced refund.

(h) Tax Treatment of Payments. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a Determination, Seller, Buyer, the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Section 6.9, Section 1.2(e), Section 2.1(e), and Article VIII as an adjustment to the consideration for income Tax purposes.

(i) Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of Seller and Buyer shall pay and be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of any sales, use, transfer, documentary, stamp, value added or similar Taxes and related fees imposed on or payable with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (“Transfer Taxes”). Such Transfer Taxes shall be paid by the party responsible under applicable Law to pay such Transfer Taxes (with the other party indemnifying the party that is legally responsible to pay the Tax, its share of such Tax at least three (3) days before the Tax payment due date). Both parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate in the execution of the Tax Returns and other filings relating to such Transfer Taxes.

(j) Timing of Payments. Any indemnity payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 6.9 shall be made within ten (10) days after the indemnified party makes written demand upon the indemnifying party, but in no case earlier than five (5) days prior to the date on which the relevant Taxes or other amounts are required to be paid to the applicable Taxing Authority.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, indemnification with respect to Taxes and the procedures relating thereto shall be governed exclusively by this Section 6.9, Section 8.3 and Section 8.4, and the provisions of Article VIII (other than Section 8.3 and Section 8.4) shall not apply. The covenants and agreements in this Section 6.9 and the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.9(m) shall survive the Second Closing until the date that is six (6) months after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; provided, however, that any claim for indemnity made by a party hereto on or prior to such date shall survive until such claim is finally resolved. The representations and warranties contained in Section 3.9 (other than in Section 3.9(m)) shall not survive, and shall terminate at, the Second Closing.

Section 6.10 Certain Pre-Closing Transactions. Prior to the Second Closing, Seller shall complete each of the following transactions (collectively, the “Restructuring Transactions”), in each case pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Seller and Buyer:

Section 6.11 Change of Name. Effective upon the Second Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cease all use of the name “Cole” and any derivative thereof for marketing, promotion or sales purposes to customers or the general public, except (solely with respect to the general public) for a transition period not to exceed forty-five (45) days immediately following the Second Closing Date.

Section 6.12 Subsidiary Advisory Agreement. Seller agrees that, after the Second Closing, it or one of its Affiliates will enter into a sub-advisory agreement with the advisor of each of Cole Credit Property Trust VI, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Cole Office & Industrial REIT (CCIT III), Inc., a Maryland corporation, each of which as of the date of this Agreement has not been formed (the “Designated Formation Funds”), as promptly as practicable after the formation of each such Designated Formation Fund (the “Formation Fund Sub-Advisory Agreement”). Seller and Buyer agree that the advisory agreement to be entered into with each of the Designated Formation Funds (the “Formation Fund Advisory Agreement”) will be materially in the same form as the advisory agreement for the prior Designated Fund in such series, subject only to such changes as may be required by Governmental Entities, as do not materially adversely affect Seller or as are agreed to by Seller and Buyer (the “Permitted Changes”), and that the Formation Fund Sub-Advisory Agreement (other than to reflect the fee schedule set forth in Section 6.12 of the Seller Disclosure Letter) will be substantially in the same form as the Formation Fund Advisory Agreement, with such changes as are necessary to conform to the Permitted Changes or as are agreed to by Seller and Buyer. Except for the Designated Funds and the Designated Formation Funds, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will serve as sub-advisor to any fund sponsored by Buyer, unless Seller and Buyer otherwise agree.

Section 6.13 Reaffirmation of Advisory Agreement. On or before the Second Closing, Seller shall use, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable best efforts to assist Buyer and the Acquired Companies in reaffirming or renewing, or causing to be reaffirmed or renewed, any advisory contract, investment management contract, property management contract, dealer manager agreement, soliciting dealer agreement and any similar agreement which relates to the Business.

Section 6.14 No Negotiation. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of the Second Closing Date or the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, Seller shall not, shall not authorize or permit any of its Affiliates to, and shall instruct its representatives not to: (a) solicit or knowingly encourage the initiation or submission of any expression of interest, inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other than Buyer or its Affiliates or representatives) relating to a possible Acquisition Transaction; (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations or enter into any agreement, understanding or arrangement with, or

Section 6.16 Intercompany Obligations. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, such action and make, or cause to be made, such payments as may be necessary so that, as of the Second Closing Date, there shall be no intercompany obligations (other than pursuant to this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements) between any of the Acquired Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries), on the other hand. Except for this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, all intercompany arrangements and Contracts, whether written or oral, between any Acquired Company or their respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall terminate and be of no further force and effect after the Second Closing.

Section 8.2 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Second Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries), and its and their respective

officers, directors and employees (any of the foregoing, a “Buyer Indemnified Party”), against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, claims, fines, deficiencies, payments (including those arising out of any settlement, judgment or compromise relating to any Action and expenses (including interest and penalties due and payable with respect thereto and reasonable expenses of investigation, preparation, defense, avoidance or settlement of an Action and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any Action whether involving a third party claim or a claim solely between the parties hereto) (“Damages”) incurred, asserted against or suffered by any Buyer Indemnified Party, including in connection with enforcing Seller’s obligations hereunder, resulting from or arising out of (x) any inaccuracy in any representation or breach of warranty of Seller contained in Article III (other than Section 3.9, which shall be governed by Section 6.9) by virtue of its failure to be true and correct (A) on and as of the First Closing Date with the same effect as though made on and as of the First Closing Date (other than any such representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the First Closing Date), (B) on and as of the date of this Agreement (other than any such representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the date of this Agreement) or (C) on and as of the date or time when made, in the case of any representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the date of this Agreement or the First Closing Date; provided that, in the event of any such breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty that includes any limitation or qualification as to “materiality” (including the word “material”), “Material Adverse Effect” or “Knowledge,” for purposes of determining the amount of such Damages with respect to such breach or inaccuracy, no effect will be given to such limitation or qualification contained therein (each such inaccuracy in a representation or breach of warranty a “Breach”) or (y) breach of covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Second Closing.

(b) From and after the Second Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries), and its and their respective officers, directors and employees (any of the foregoing, a “Seller Indemnified Party”), against any and all Damages incurred, asserted against or suffered by any Seller Indemnified Party, including in connection with enforcing Buyer’s obligations hereunder, resulting from or arising out of (x) any inaccuracy in any representation or breach of warranty of Buyer contained in Article IV by virtue of its failure to be true and correct (A) on and as of the First Closing Date with the same effect as though made on and as of the First Closing Date (other than any such representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the First Closing Date), (B) on and as of the date of this Agreement (other than any such representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the date of this Agreement) or (C) on and as of the date or time when made, in the case of any representation or warranty that speaks as of a specific date or time other than the date of this Agreement or the First Closing Date; provided that, for purposes of determining the amount of such Damages with respect to any Breach by Buyer, no effect will be given to any limitation or qualification as to “materiality” (including the word “material”), “Material Adverse Effect” or “Knowledge” contained in any related representation or warranty or (y) breach of covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Second Closing.

(c) With respect to indemnification by Seller or Buyer (each being referred in its capacity as the indemnifying party as, the “Indemnifying Party”) for its Breaches pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(x) and Section 8.2(b)(x), as applicable:

(i) the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable unless the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to all such Breaches exceeds $10 million, after which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the amount of all Damages with respect to its Breaches in excess of $10 million;

(ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any single claim or series of related claims with respect to such Breaches which result in Damages of $250,000 or less (and such claims shall not be aggregated for purposes of aggregating Damages pursuant to clause Section 8.2(c)(i)); and

(iii) the Indemnifying Party’s maximum aggregate liability for all such Breaches shall not exceed $75 million;

provided, further, that the limitations on indemnifiable Damages set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall not apply with respect to the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.3(a) and Section 3.6 or the representations and warranties of Buyer set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3(a) and Section 4.5.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable to an Indemnified Party for any exemplary, punitive, special or consequential damages, including lost profits or diminution of value or any loss of goodwill or possible business after the Second Closing, except for any such damages to the extent paid to a third party, including a Governmental Entity.

(e) With respect to any claim brought by a Buyer Indemnified Party against Seller under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement, Seller expressly waives any right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against any Acquired Company or any Subsidiary of any Acquired Company with respect to any amounts owed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, agrees to give prompt notice (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Indemnifying Party, in the event indemnity is sought by a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, under this Section 8.2, of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section 8.2 (each, a “Claim”) and will provide the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto in the possession of Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, unless (and solely to the extent) such failure shall have actually materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party’s defense of such Claim.

(g) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim asserted by a third party (each, a “Third Party Claim”) and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.2, shall have fifteen (15) days after the date on which Notice of Claim is given (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Notice of Claim as may be required by court proceedings in the event of a litigated matter) to notify the party giving such Notice of Claim in writing of its election to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its expense.

(h) If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.2, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim, if the settlement does not unconditionally release the Indemnified Parties from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim, the settlement includes a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party, or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against any Indemnified Party, and any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose. The fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party; provided that in the event that the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both such Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party could reasonably be expected to present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then the Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such Action and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) at any time for all Indemnified Parties. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend such Third Party Claim or does not defend such Third Party Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right in addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to defend such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnified Party’s defense of or participation in the defense of any such Third Party Claim shall not in any way diminish or lessen the obligations of the Indemnifying Party under the agreements of indemnification set forth in this Article VIII, and (ii) the Indemnified Party may not settle any such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(i) At the Indemnifying Party’s expense, each party shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(j) At the Indemnifying Party’s expense, each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other person alleged to be responsible, for any Damages payable under this Section 8.2.

(k) Except for Third Party Claims being defended in good faith, an Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations under this Article VIII in respect of a claim for indemnification hereunder which is not contested by the Indemnifying Party in good faith as promptly as practical but in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the date on which the Notice of Claim in respect thereof is given.

Section 8.3 Calculation of Damages. The amount of any Damages payable under Section 6.9 and/or Section 8.2 by the Indemnifying Party shall be: (i) net of any amounts actually previously recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies in respect of the Damages giving rise to the right of indemnification (net of any increase in premiums to be paid by the Indemnified Party arising from the insurance carrier’s payment of such claim); (ii) increased by any Tax cost actually incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the receipt or accrual of the indemnity payment; and (iii) decreased by any cash Tax savings actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising in the taxable year in which such Damages are incurred or, if later, at the time the indemnity payment is made. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts in respect of the Damages giving rise to the right of indemnification under applicable insurance policies subsequent to an indemnification payment in respect of such Damages by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall, to the extent fully indemnified for the applicable Damages (after giving effect to the following reimbursement obligation), promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount so received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount (including any increase in premiums arising from the payment by an insurance carrier of such amount). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be required to pay Damages pursuant to this Section 8.3 if, and solely to the extent, liability for such Damages is reflected in the calculation of the Final Closing Net Working Capital.

Section 8.4 Exclusivity. After the Second Closing, Section 6.9 and this Article VIII shall provide the exclusive remedy for any claim by any Indemnified Party based on a Breach by the Indemnifying Party, other than any such claim based on fraud or willful breach of this Agreement and except as set forth in Section 10.10.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT

Section 9.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Second Closing:

(a) by mutual consent of Seller and Buyer in a written instrument;

(b) by either Buyer or Seller if any Governmental Entity that must grant a Requisite Approval has denied such approval and such denial has become final and nonappealable or any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable Order permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(b) shall have complied with its obligations pursuant to Section 6.1 with respect to such denial or Order;

(c) by either Buyer or Seller if the Second Closing shall not have occurred on or before December 31, 2014 (the “Outside Date”) unless the failure of the Closing to occur by such date shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants and agreements of such party set forth in this Agreement; or

(d) by either Buyer or Seller if there shall have been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of Seller, in the case of a termination by Buyer, or Buyer, in the case of a termination by Seller, which breach, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Second Closing Date, the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b), in the case of a termination by Buyer, or the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b), in the case of a termination by Seller, and which, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days following written notice to the party committing such breach or which by its nature or timing cannot be cured prior to the Outside Date.

Section 9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Buyer as provided in Section 9.1 (or by Seller and Buyer as provided in Section 9.1(a)), this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, and none of the parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of the officers or directors of any of them shall have any liability of any nature whatsoever under this Agreement, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that (i) the first sentence of Section 6.2(b), this Section 9.2 and Article X shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its fraud or willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 1.2 Contingent Consideration.

(a) Promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) following a Final Earn-Out Payment Statement being deemed final and binding pursuant to Section 1.3(e) of this Annex A, Buyer shall pay to Seller (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller) an amount (not to exceed $130 million) in cash equal to one-half (1/2) of the product of (i) Excess EBITDA, multiplied by (ii) the Earn-Out Multiple (such amount, the “Earn-Out Payment”). For illustration purposes only, (A) if Actual EBITDA was $100 million, then the Earn-Out Payment would be $92.5 million (representing one-half of the product of (i) $25 million, multiplied by (ii) 7.40), and (B) if Actual EBITDA was $200 million, then the Earn-Out Payment would be $130 million because the Earn-Out Payment is capped at $130 million.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and so long as shares of Buyer Class A Stock are listed on a national securities exchange, Buyer may, as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion, pay to Seller the Earn-Out Payment as follows, and such payment, if elected, shall be made promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) following the Final Earn-Out Payment Statement referred to in Section 1.2(a) of this Annex A being deemed final and binding:

(i) an amount in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller) equal to one-half (1/2) of the Earn-Out Payment; and

(ii) in satisfaction of the other one-half (1/2) of the Earn-Out Payment, the issuance by Buyer to Seller of such number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Buyer Class A Stock determined by dividing (x) fifty percent (50%) of the Earn-Out Payment by (y) the intraday volume weighted average price of one share of Buyer Class A Stock, as reported by Bloomberg, LP, over the ten (10) trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Final Earn-Out Payment Statement is deemed final (the “Earn-Out Buyer VWAP”); provided, however, if the foregoing number of shares, together with the Buyer Shares, is greater than a number representing nineteen and nine tenths percent (19.9%) of the shares of Buyer Class A Stock outstanding as of such date (such number, the “Earn-Out Stock Threshold”), then the number of shares of Buyer Class A Stock to be delivered pursuant to this Section 1.2(b)(ii) of this Annex A shall be reduced to the Earn-Out Stock Threshold and, in such event, Buyer shall pay to Seller the Earn-Out Excess Stock Amount in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller). For purposes hereof, “Earn-Out Excess Stock Amount” shall mean the number of shares of Buyer Class A Stock in excess of the Earn-Out Stock Threshold that would have been issued under the preceding sentence but for the proviso thereto, multiplied by the Earn-Out Buyer VWAP.

Section 1.3 Contingent Consideration Statements.

(a) Buyer shall engage the Earn-Out Auditor for the purposes of determining the Earn-Out Payment. Within thirty (30) days following the Test Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement that sets forth in reasonable detail its calculation of Actual EBITDA, and the components thereof, and the Earn-Out Payment (such statement, an “Initial Contingent Consideration Statement”), along with reasonable support documentation for such calculations.

(b) Seller shall review the Initial Contingent Consideration Statement during the thirty (30) day period commencing on the date that Buyer delivers such Initial Contingent Consideration Statement. Buyer shall give Seller reasonable access to Buyer’s records, personnel and the Earn-Out Auditor for purposes of such review. In the event Seller disagrees with such Initial Contingent Consideration Statement, Seller may, prior to the end of such thirty (30)-day period, deliver a written notice to Buyer (a “Notice of Contingent Consideration Statement Disagreement”) setting out Seller’s objections and specifying in reasonable detail the adjustments that, in Seller’s opinion, should be made to such Initial Contingent Consideration Statement (collectively, the “Proposed Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustments”). In the event a Notice of Contingent Consideration Statement Disagreement is delivered in accordance with the terms of this Annex A, Seller and Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve within ten (10) days any differences in relation to the Proposed Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustments and to reach agreement in writing on whether to address, and if so, how to address, each such Proposed Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustment.

(c) If Seller is satisfied with the applicable Initial Contingent Consideration Statement (either as originally submitted or after adjustments are agreed upon by Seller and Buyer in accordance with Section 1.3(b) of this Annex A) or Seller fails to deliver a Notice of Contingent Consideration Statement Disagreement with respect to such Initial Contingent Consideration Statement within the thirty (30) day period specified in Section 1.3(b) of this Annex A), then such Initial Contingent Consideration Statement (incorporating, if applicable, any agreed adjustments) shall be deemed final and constitute the applicable “Final Contingent Consideration Statement” for purposes of the Agreement.

(d) If any of the Proposed Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustments are not resolved or otherwise agreed to (or deemed agreed to) in accordance with Section 1.3(b) or Section 1.3(c) of this Annex A (the “Unresolved Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustments”) within ten (10) days after Buyer’s receipt of a Notice of Contingent Consideration Statement Disagreement, then the Unresolved Contingent Consideration Statement Adjustments may be submitted for resolution at the request of Buyer or Seller to the Auditor as set forth in Section 2.1(d) of the Agreement, mutatis mutandis (provided that in the event that the Auditor is the same as the Earn-Out Auditor, Buyer and Seller shall select a different independent accounting firm of recognized national standing).

(e) When (A) pursuant to Section 1.3(b) or Section 1.3(c) of this Annex A, the Initial Contingent Consideration Statement is deemed to constitute the Final Contingent Consideration Statement for purposes of the Agreement, (B) Seller and Buyer reach agreement in writing with respect to the Initial Contingent Consideration Statement or (C) the Initial Contingent Consideration Statement is finally determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.3(b) of this Annex A, the Initial Contingent Consideration Statement as so agreed (or deemed agreed) or determined shall be the applicable “Final Earn-Out Payment Statement” for purposes of the Agreement and shall be final and binding on the parties and shall be used for determination of the Earn-Out Payment, if any.

Section 1.4 Certain Changes to the Business; Remedies.

(a) In the event of any transaction, other than a Cole Sale, resulting in the sale or other disposition or transfer of any portion of the Business or the assets of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Person other than Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, whether effected through a transfer of assets or equity interests, a merger, a reorganization, a consolidation or any other transaction (for the avoidance of doubt, not to include any transfer of personnel of the Business), Buyer and Seller shall work in good faith to agree upon an equitable adjustment to the manner in which Actual EBITDA (or any component thereof) shall be calculated such that Seller shall have substantially the same ability to receive the Earn-Out Payment that Seller had prior to such transaction. If Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on such adjustments, they will jointly refer the matter to a financial advisor of recognized national standing to provide such adjustments. Seller and Buyer will use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause such financial advisor to submit its adjustments within thirty (30) calendar days of its engagement for these purposes. The adjustments determined by such financial advisor shall be deemed final and binding on the parties. The fees and expenses of such financial advisor shall be allocated between Seller on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by such financial advisor, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by such financial advisor at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Annex A or the Agreement, (i) the sole and exclusive liability and responsibility of Buyer and its Affiliates for any breach of Section 1.2(b) of the Agreement and the terms contained in this Annex A, and the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller with respect to any of the foregoing, shall be the payment of the Contingent Consideration, subject to an adjustment to such Contingent Consideration, taking into account the Actual EBITDA (and the components thereof) that would have resulted had such breach not occurred and other adjustments to the calculation of the Contingent Consideration to be mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller, and (ii) upon payment of the Contingent Consideration as so adjusted, any and all obligations of the parties under this Section 1.4 shall thereafter terminate and cease to have any further force or effect. In the event that Buyer and Seller are not able to mutually agree to adjustments to the Contingent Consideration within ten (10) Business Days after the party alleging such breach has given notice of alleged breach to Buyer (in the event of a breach alleged by Seller) or to Seller (in the event of a breach alleged by Buyer), then such adjustments shall be submitted for resolution at the request of the party alleging such breach to the Auditor as set forth in Section 2.1(d) of the Agreement, mutatis mutandis (provided that in the event that the Auditor is the same as the Earn-Out Auditor, the party alleging such breach shall select a different independent accounting firm of recognized national standing reasonably acceptable to the party alleged to have breached).

Section 1.5 Tax Treatment of Contingent Consideration. The parties agree that for federal, state and local income tax purposes, the Contingent Consideration shall be treated by the parties as additional consideration for the purchase by Buyer of the Acquired Interests, and the parties shall cause such payment to be reported in good faith in accordance herewith.

Section 1.6 Certain Covenants of Buyer. From and after the Second Closing Date through the Test Date, Buyer will (a) maintain a separate set of accounts for the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries as if they were a stand-alone company separate from the other Subsidiaries of Buyer, (b) operate in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and not take any action outside the ordinary course of business the primary purpose of which is to eliminate or reduce the Earn-Out Payment, (c) except for a Cole Sale, not liquidate or otherwise dissolve any of the Acquired Companies or their Subsidiaries, (d) not effect any transaction (including any allocation of corporate expense) between Buyer or any Affiliate thereof (other than any Acquired Company or

Subsidiary thereof), on the one hand, and an Acquired Company or a Subsidiary thereof, on the other hand, on a basis less favorable in any material respect to such Acquired Company or Subsidiary than would be the case if such transaction had been at arms’-length with an unrelated third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Earn-Out Payment, if any, is speculative and not guaranteed and subject to numerous factors outside the control of Buyer, (ii) neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates has promised or projected any payments under this Annex A or any amount of Actual EBITDA for any period following the Second Closing Date, (iii) other than the express covenants and agreements contained in this Annex A, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including, following the Second Closing, the Acquired Companies) owes any duties (express or implied) to Seller, (iv) the parties solely intend the express provisions of this Annex A and the Agreement to govern their contractual relationship, and (v) subject to compliance with the provisions of this Annex A and the Agreement, Buyer shall have sole discretion with respect to all matters relating to the operation of the Acquired Companies, their Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, and shall have no obligation to operate any such Person or business in order to achieve any Earn-Out Payment or to maximize the amount thereof. From and after the Second Closing until December 31, 2015, no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement that sets forth in reasonable detail its calculation of the combined earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of the Acquired Companies, calculated in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with Seller’s accounting principles, policies and methodologies used in connection with the preparation of the Financial Statements, for the previous calendar month and, beginning in January 1, 2015, for the year to date.

Section 1.7 Special Earn-Out Events.

(a) Buyer shall provide Seller with twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of a Special Earn-Out Event. If a Special Earn-Out Event occurs, Seller will have the right to require, in lieu of the Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this Annex A, a special payment in accordance with this Section 1.7 of Annex A. Seller may exercise such right within 60 days after obtaining actual knowledge that such Special Earn-Out Event has occurred (the date of such occurrence, the “Special Earn-Out Trigger Date”) by providing written notice to Buyer of such request, which notice shall also describe the reasons supporting the request (a “Special Earn-Out Notice”).

(b) If a Special Earn-Out Event occurs and Seller delivers a Special Earn-Out Notice in accordance with this Section 1.7, the following provisions shall apply:

(1) Upon receipt of a Special Earn-Out Notice, each of Seller and Buyer shall engage a financial advisor of recognized national standing to prepare a calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment, which will incorporate such financial advisor’s good faith projection of Actual EBITDA from the Special Earn-Out Trigger Date through the end of the Performance Period. Each party’s financial advisor shall submit its calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment within 20 Business Days of receipt by Buyer of the Special Earn-Out Notice, along with reasonable supporting documentation for such calculations (each, a “Special Earn-Out Statement”). Buyer shall give each financial advisor reasonable access to its records, personnel and independent accountants for purposes of the financial advisors’ calculations of the Special Earn-Out Payment.

(2) If the higher calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment contained in the two Special Earn-Out Statements is not more than 110% of the calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment contained in the other Special Earn-Out Statement (such calculations collectively, the “Special Earn-Out Payment Calculations” and each individually a “Special Earn-Out Payment Calculation”), then the calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment will be calculated based on an average of the two Special Earn-Out Payment Calculations.

(3) If the higher calculation of the Special Earn-Out Payment Calculations is more than 110% of the lower Special Earn-Out Payment Calculation, then Buyer’s and Seller’s financial advisors shall select and engage on behalf of Buyer and Seller a third financial advisor of recognized national standing, within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of the Special Earn-Out Statements pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(1). The third financial advisor so selected shall use its reasonable best efforts to render its decision as to which of the two Special Earn-Out Payment Calculations is more accurate within thirty (30) days of the engagement of such third financial advisor. Buyer shall give such financial advisor reasonable access to its records, personnel and independent accountants for purposes of the financial advisor’s calculations of the Special Earn-Out Payment.

(4) Buyer and Seller agree that, upon the determination of the average of the Special Earn-Out Payment Calculations pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(2), or upon the rendering of the decision of the third financial advisor pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(3), as applicable, Buyer and Seller shall be bound to such average or such decision which shall be deemed final and binding on the parties to the Agreement (such average or such Special Earn-Out Payment Calculation decided as the more accurate by the third financial advisor, the “Final Special Earn-Out Payment”). The Final Special Earn-Out Payment shall be paid by Buyer to Seller (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller) promptly after the determination of the Final Special Earn-Out Payment in accordance with this Section 1.7(b)(4).

The fees and expenses of the third financial advisor shall be allocated between Seller on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by such financial advisor, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by such financial advisor at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

3.4 Redemption Procedures.

(a) A notice of redemption delivered pursuant to Section 3.2 (the “Redemption Notice”) or Mandatory Change of Control Offer, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Redemption Notice or Mandatory Change of Control Offer by mail or any defect in the Redemption Notice or Mandatory Change of Control Offer to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. With respect to a Note that is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and after the date of redemption thereof, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued.

(b) If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to a Redemption Notice, the Issuer shall select the Notes to be redeemed on a pro rata basis.

(c) The Issuer may not redeem any Notes pursuant to Section 3.2 on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Notes and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from an Event of Default by the Issuer in the payment of the redemption price with respect to such Notes).

(d) In the event of any redemption of the Notes in accordance with this Section 3.4, the Issuer shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during the fifteen (15) calendar day period prior to the date on which the Redemption Notice is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Notes to be redeemed, or register the transfer of or exchange any Notes so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the portion of any Notes being redeemed in part that shall not be redeemed.

4. Interest.

4.1 Interest. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Note shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate from [—]⁵ or from the most recent date to which interest had been paid, but excluding, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date, until the Maturity Date.

4.2 Interest Payment Dates. Interest shall be payable in cash quarterly in arrears to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at close of business on Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date.

4.3 Default Interest. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Issuer shall pay to the Holder interest at the Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and on any other amount payable by the Issuer hereunder (including accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under applicable Law). Interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable upon demand and in cash.

4.4 Computation of Interest. All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year), and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

4.5 Interest Rate Limitation. If at any time and for any reason whatsoever, the interest rate payable on the Notes shall exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable Law, such interest rate shall be reduced automatically to the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable Law and that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable Law shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal.

5. Note Register; Payment Mechanics.

5.1 Note Register.

(a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept at its principal office a register for the registration and transfer of each of the Notes (the “Note Register”). The names and addresses of the Holders of Notes, the transfer of Notes, and the names and addresses of the transferees of the Notes shall be registered in the Note Register.

⁵	Insert date of the First Closing Date as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement.

(b) The Person in whose name any registered Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Note, and the Issuer shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until due presentment of such Note for registration of transfer so provided in this Section 5.1. Payment of or on account of the principal, and interest on any registered Notes shall be made to or upon the written order of such registered holder.

(c) When Notes are presented to the Issuer with a request to register the transfer of such Notes or to exchange such Notes for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, the Issuer shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if requirements set for under Section 5.6 herein, are met.

(d) The Person in whose name any Note is registered on the Note Register at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date. Interest shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by the Issuer for such purposes. The Notes will be payable both as to principal and interest by Federal funds wire transfer of lawful money of the United States to each Holder’s account in any bank in the United States as may be designated and specified in writing by such Holder at least two Business Days prior thereto.

5.2 Delivery Expenses. If a Holder surrenders any Note to the Issuer for any reason, the Issuer agrees to pay the cost of delivering to such Holder’s home office or to the office of such Holder’s designee from the Issuer, the Note(s) issued in substitution, replacement or exchange for, the surrendered Note.

5.3 Direct Payment.

(a) The Issuer will pay or cause to be paid all amounts payable with respect to any Note (without any presentment of such Note and without any notation of such payment being made thereon) by crediting (before 1:00 p.m., New York time), by intra-bank or Federal funds bank wire transfer in same day funds in U.S. Dollars to each Holder’s account in any bank in the United States as may be designated and specified in writing by such Holder at least two Business Days prior thereto.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Notes, if any principal amount payable with respect to a Note is payable, at maturity, upon redemption, or otherwise, on a day which is not a Business Day, then the Issuer shall pay such amount on the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue on such amount until the date on which such amount is paid and payment of such accrued interest shall be made concurrently with the payment of such amount; provided that the Issuer may elect to pay in full (but not in part) any such amount on the last Business Day prior to the date such payment otherwise would be due, and no such additional interest shall accrue on such amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Notes, if any interest payable with respect to a Note is payable on a day which is not a Business Day, then the Issuer may elect to pay in full (but not in part) any such interest on the last Business Day prior to the date such payment otherwise would be due, and such diminution in time shall be included in the computation of the interest payment.

5.4 Lost, etc. Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Issuer or if the Holder of a Note claims and submits an affidavit or other evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer to the effect that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue a replacement Note if the customary requirements relating to replacement securities are reasonably satisfied. If required by the Issuer, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond, or other form of indemnity, sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Issuer to protect the Issuer from any loss which it may suffer if a Note is replaced. The affidavit of such Holder at the time of loss, setting forth the fact of loss, theft or destruction and of its ownership of the Note at the time of such loss, theft or destruction shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence thereof, and no further indemnity shall be required as a condition to the execution and delivery of a new Note other than the unsecured written agreement of such Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer to indemnify the Issuer or, at the option of the Issuer, an indemnity bond in the amount of the Note remaining outstanding. Every replacement Note is an obligation of the Issuer.

5.5 Other Covenants. The Issuer further covenants and agrees not to, and to ensure that no affiliate (as defined in Rule 501(b) of the Securities Act) of the Issuer will, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the issuance of the Notes in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance of the Note under the Equity Purchase Agreement.

5.6 Transfer Restrictions. No transfer or sale (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation) of Notes by any Holder which is otherwise permitted hereunder, other than a transfer or sale to the Issuer, shall be effective unless such transfer or sale is made (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and a valid qualification under applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws or (ii) without such registration or qualification as a result of the availability of an exemption therefrom, and if reasonably requested by the Issuer, counsel for such transferee (who may be in-house) shall have furnished the Issuer with an opinion, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Issuer, to the effect that no such registration is required because of the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided, however, that with respect to transfers by Holders to their Affiliates, no such opinion shall be required. For the avoidance of doubt, all transfers or sales of Notes shall be subject to Section 10.15.

5.7 Replacements Notes. All Notes issued by the Issuer shall be in form and substance identical to this Note other than the principal amount and the Holder thereof and otherwise to the extent set forth in Section 10.9(d). Any Note issued by the Issuer in connection with one or more assignments or redemptions of this Note as permitted hereunder will be in the principal amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) (except in the case of any redemption following which the aggregate principal amount remaining is less than $1,000) or integral multiplies of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) or excess thereof.

6. Affirmative Covenants. So long as any of the Notes remain unpaid and outstanding, the Issuer covenants to the Holders of the outstanding Notes as follows:

(a) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence; and

(b) Provide prompt notice of the occurrence of, after the Issuer becomes aware of any such event, any Default or Event of Default hereunder.

(d) failure by any Permitted Issuer Transferee to comply with the covenants set forth in Sections 5 and 6 of the Assumption Agreement (as defined below);

(e) failure by the Issuer to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements contained in the Note and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days from receipt by the Issuer of written notice thereof from the Holder;

indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable or (ii) constituting a failure to pay the principal or interest of any such debt when due and payable at its stated maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;

(h) the Issuer shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Issuer or its debts under bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due; or

(i) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Issuer seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Issuer or debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary care or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days.

8. Remedies.

8.1 Acceleration of Notes.

(a) Subject to Section 8.1(c), if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (g) or (h) of Section 7 occurs and is continuing), the Majority Holders, by notice to the Issuer (a copy of which shall be provided to each other Holder; provided that such copy shall not constitute a notice for the purpose thereof), may declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest on all the Notes to be due and payable, and immediately upon such declaration, the principal and interest shall be due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (g) or (h) of Section 7 occurs, such an amount shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of any Holder.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.1(a), but subject to Section 8.1(c), if an Event of Default specified in clauses (a) or (b) of Section 7 occurs and is continuing, any Holder, by notice to the Issuer (a copy of which shall be provided to each other Holder; provided that such copy shall not constitute a notice for the purpose thereof), may declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest on all the Notes it holds to be due and payable, and immediately upon such declaration, the principal and interest shall be due and payable.

(c) The Holder by notice to the Issuer (a copy of which shall be provided to each other Holder; provided that such copy shall not constitute a notice for the purpose thereof) may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that have become due solely because of the acceleration.

8.2 Other Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Majority Holders or, if a Payment Default occurs and is continuing, any Holder, may pursue any rights and remedies available under the Notes and the applicable law to collect the payment of principal or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes.

(b) A delay or omission by any Holder of any Notes in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

8.3 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Majority Holders by notice to the Issuer (a copy of which shall be provided to each other Holder; provided that such copy shall not constitute a notice for the purpose thereof) may waive an existing Default or Event of Default under the Notes and its consequences except a continuing Payment Default.

8.4 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

9. Taxes; Tax Assurances.

(a) The Issuer shall make all payments, whether on account of principal, interest or otherwise, free of and without deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes, duties or other charges (“Taxes”), unless otherwise required by Law.

(b) The Issuer and each Holder acknowledges that it is intended that the Notes not be readily tradable on an “established securities market” and each of Holder and the Issuer agrees that he or it will not take any action that would result in a Note being traded on an established securities market. Any transfer of a Note on an established securities market shall be null and

void. As used herein, “established securities market” means (i) a national securities exchange which is registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78f), (ii) an exchange which is exempted from registration under Section 5 of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78e) because of its limited volume of transactions, and (iii) any over-the-counter market (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.453-3(d)(4)).

(c) Until January 31, 2017, the Issuer shall not redeem the Notes held by the Initial Holder or any of its Affiliates and the Initial Holder shall not transfer all or any portion of its Note(s) in any tax year to the extent the Gross Income that would be recognized by the Initial Holder from such redemption or transfer if included in the Nonqualifying Income (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement) for such tax year, would cause the total Gross Income to be recognized by the Initial Holder in such tax year to exceed the Nonqualifying Income Limitation (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement) in accordance with Section 1.2(f) of the Equity Purchase Agreement. The Initial Holder shall notify the Issuer (the “Limitation Notice”) within five (5) Business Days after a Redemption Notice if redemption of the Notes would not be permitted. From and after the date of any Limitation Notice until the earlier of January 31, 2017 or the date on which the Initial Holder notifies the Issuer in writing that that Issuer may again effect a redemption, any Note held by the Initial Holder or any of its Affiliates shall bear interest at a rate of one percent (1%) per annum. Nothing in this Section 9(c) shall affect the Issuer’s right to redeem, or the interest payable on, Notes held by any other Holders.

If the Holder repays, refunds, restores, or returns in whole or in part, any payment or property previously paid or transferred to the Holder in full or partial satisfaction of any obligation evidenced by a Note, because the payment, transfer, or the incurrence of the obligation so satisfied is asserted or declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable under any Law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable obligations or transfers (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), or because the Holder elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with a claim that the payment, transfer, or incurrence is or may be a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Holder elects to repay, restore, or return (including pursuant to a settlement of any claim in respect thereof), and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of the Holder related thereto, the liability of the Issuer with respect to the amount or property paid, refunded, restored, or returned will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist.

10.8 Waiver of Notice. The Issuer hereby waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of payment, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration of maturity and diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder.

10.9 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) With Consent of Holders. The Issuer, with the written consent of the Majority Holders (a copy of which shall be provided to each other Holder), may amend the Notes, provided that each Holder shall have received prior notice and a draft of such proposed amendment. The Majority Holders may waive compliance by the Issuer with any provision of the Notes by a written consent (a copy of which shall be provided to each Holder), provided that each Holder shall have received prior notice and a draft of such proposed waiver. Without the consent of each Holder affected, however, no amendment may (with respect to any Notes held by a nonconsenting Holder of Notes):

(i)

reduce the principal amount of Notes;

(ii)

reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note, or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes;

(iii)

reduce the rate of interest on any Note;

(iv)

make any change in the provisions of this Note relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest on the Notes;

(v)

make any change to the definition of “Majority Holders”; or

(vi)

make any change in the foregoing amendment provisions.

(b) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under Section 10.9(a) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment or waiver under Section 10.9(a) becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to all other Holders a notice briefly describing the amendment or waiver and a copy of the fully executed amendment or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice and copy, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment or waiver.

(c) In connection with any amendment under Section 10.9(a), the Issuer may offer, but shall not be obligated to offer, to any Holder who consents to such amendment or waiver, consideration for such Holder’s consent.

(d) Revocation and Effectiveness of Consents. Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every

subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidence that same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of his Note by notice to the Issuer received before the date on which the Majority Holders have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment or waiver.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment or waiver, which record date shall be at least 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of the clauses (i) though (vi) of Section 10.9(a), in which case, the amendment or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Note who consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note; provided that any such waiver shall not impair or affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on a Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver, consent or amendment, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer shall be considered as though not outstanding.

(e) Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Issuer may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Issuer so that it may place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder.

10.10 Headings. The headings of the various Sections and subsections herein are for reference only and shall not define, modify, expand or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

10.11 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising on the part of the Holder, of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

10.12 Electronic Execution. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of similar import in the Notes shall be deemed to include electronic or digital signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same effect, validity and enforceability as manually executed signatures or a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for under applicable Law, including the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act of 2000 (15 USC § 7001 et seq.), the Electronic Signatures and Records Act of 1999 (N.Y. State Tech. Law §§ 301-309), or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

10.13 Severability. If any term or provision of the Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of the Notes or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.14 Expenses. The Issuer agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Holder in connection with the administration of this Note or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof or incurred by the Holder in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights under this Note, including in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Note in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one New York counsel (and counsel in each other relevant local jurisdiction) for the Holder. The agreements in this Section 10.14 shall survive repayment of all of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. All amounts due under this Section 10.14 shall be paid promptly following receipt by the Issuer of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail.

10.15 Right of First Offer.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 10.15, unless any Event of Default occurs and is continuing at the time of such Transfer, the Issuer shall have a right of first offer with respect to any sale, assignment, exchange or other transfer, whether involuntarily or voluntarily (each, a “Transfer”), of all or any part of this Note by the Initial Holder or any of its Affiliates (the Initial Holder and any such Affiliate, each a “Transferor”) other than to a Permitted Transferee.

(b) If a Transferor proposes to Transfer this Note, the Transferor shall first make an offer of this Note to the Issuer in accordance with the following provisions:

(i)

The Transferor shall deliver a notice (the “RFO Notice”) to the Issuer stating (i) the Transferor’s bona fide intention to Transfer this Note and (ii) the price and terms upon which it proposes to Transfer this Note.

(ii)

Within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of the RFO Notice, the Issuer may elect, upon written notice to the Transferor, to purchase, at the price and on the terms specified in the RFO Notice, this Note. If the Issuer elects to purchase this Note, such purchase shall be completed promptly following such notice from the Issuer to the Transferor.

(iii)

If the Issuer does not notify the Transferor of its election to purchase this Note in accordance with Section 10.15(b)(ii), the Transferor may, during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period provided in Section 10.15(b)(ii) hereof, Transfer this Note to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the RFO Notice. If the Transferor does not Transfer this Note within such period, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and this Note shall not be Transferred unless first reoffered to the Issuer in accordance with this Section 10.15.

10.16 Effectiveness of Note. This Note shall become effective at and as of the Second Closing Date (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement).

equity-holders and control persons (collectively, the “Other Indemnified Parties”), from and against any losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), to which the Wholesaler, its affiliates or their respective Other Indemnified Parties may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein by the Dealer Manager, any breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein of the Dealer Manager, or any failure by the Dealer Manager to comply with state or federal securities law applicable to the Offering; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the information relating to the Dealer Manager that appears in the Dealer Manager Sections of the Prospectus or any amendment thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Dealer Manager Sections a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (iii) any unauthorized use of sales materials or use of unauthorized verbal representations concerning the Offered Shares by the Dealer Manager. The Dealer Manager will reimburse the Wholesaler and its Other Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Wholesaler, its affiliates and their respective Other Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

(b) The Wholesaler will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Dealer Manager, the Company and their respective Other Indemnified Parties, from and against any losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), to which the Dealer Manager, the Company and any of their respective Other Indemnified Parties may become subject under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation and legal fees), damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein by the Wholesaler, any breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein of the Wholesaler, or any failure by the Wholesaler to comply with state or federal securities laws applicable to the Offering; and (ii) any unauthorized use of sales materials or use of unauthorized verbal representations concerning the Shares by the Wholesaler.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under this Section 8 unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in this Agreement. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be subject to approval by the indemnified party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ and select separate counsel (including local counsel), subject to approval by the indemnifying party not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel for the indemnified party (subject to approval by the indemnified party not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party may settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be

sought hereunder but may not do so without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(d) If the right to indemnification provided for in this Section 8 would by its terms be available to a person hereunder, but is held to be unavailable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses and expenses in respect thereof, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Dealer Manager and the Wholesaler, as applicable, in connection with the statements, omissions or other circumstances which resulted in such Losses or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Dealer Manager and the Wholesaler, as applicable, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, and access to information. It is understood that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), the Dealer Manager shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total price of the Offering Shares sold by it. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8(d), each Other Indemnified Party affiliate of the Dealer Manager shall have the same rights to contribution as the Dealer Manager and each Other Indemnified Party of the Wholesaler shall have the same rights to contribution as the Wholesaler.

9.	Relationship of Wholesaler, Participating Broker-Dealers and the Dealer Manager

(a) The obligations of each of the Wholesaler and the Participating Broker-Dealers are several and not joint. Nothing herein contained shall constitute the Wholesaler and the Participating Broker-Dealers, or any of them, as an association, partnership, unincorporated business or other separate entity. The Dealer Manager and the Company shall be under no liability to the Wholesaler except for lack of good faith and for obligations expressly assumed by the Dealer Manager and the Company in this Agreement.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge that, other than as expressly set forth herein, the Wholesaler is not authorized to act as agent of the Dealer Manager or the Company in any connection or transaction, and the Wholesaler agrees that it will not so act or purport to so act.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Wholesaler’s obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation the Wholesaler Exclusivity have no impact on, and in no way release the Dealer Manager from, the Dealer Manager’s obligations and rights to act as the dealer manager for the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Dealer Manager Agreement.

10.	Termination

This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) termination of the Offering, (ii) the Second Closing (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Equity Purchase Agreement”), dated as of September 30, 2014, by and between ARC Properties Operating Partnership, L.P. and RCS Capital Corporation), (iii) termination of the Equity Purchase Agreement or (iv) December 31, 2014.

(a) Wholesaler may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving ten days’ prior written notice thereof to the other parties hereto.

The Dealer Manager will notify the Wholesaler immediately if the Dealer Manager ceases to be a member in good standing of FINRA or with the securities commission of any state in which the Dealer Manager is currently registered or licensed.

(b) In the event of termination under Section 11(b), the Dealer Manager will continue to pay any Sourcing Fees with respect to RCS Sales to the Wholesaler and reimburse costs and expenses incurred, to the extent reimbursable under Section 3(c), for so long as Offered Shares remain outstanding (it being understood and agreed that the calculation of the Sourcing Fees in such event shall take into account the number of Offered Shares sold primarily from the efforts of RCS Service Providers in the Offering). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Dealer Manager will not continue to pay the Sourcing Fee to the Wholesaler and reimburse costs and expenses related to the Offering incurred by the Wholesaler pursuant to Section 3(c) subsequent to the termination of the Offering to the extent, but only to the extent, that such payments or reimbursements would cause the total underwriting compensation (as defined in accordance with applicable FINRA rules) paid with respect to the Offering to exceed 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares calculated as of the termination of the Offering.

(c) The termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not affect (i) the Wholesaler’s obligations under the second sentence of Section 10(a), (ii) the indemnification obligations under Section 8, or (iii) this Section 10. Without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement with respect to any matter arising while this Agreement was in effect.

11.	Amendment

(a) The Dealer Manager has the right, subject to written consent from the other parties hereto which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to amend this Agreement as necessary, in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Dealer Manager, to comply with applicable law or the requirements of any governmental or self-regulatory body or agency.

(b) This Agreement may not otherwise be amended, supplemented or waived except by the express written consent of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement may be implied from any course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto or from any failure by any party hereto to assert its rights under this Agreement on any occasion or series of occasions.

WHEREAS, ARCP and the Funds wish to delineate their respective rights and obligations with respect to each other in connection with investing in the Proposed Property Acquisitions.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein made and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

1.1 Committees.

(a) The parties agree that ARCP shall establish and maintain an investment allocation committee (the “Allocation Committee”), which shall allocate Proposed Property Acquisitions as set forth in this Article I. The members of the Allocation Committee shall be appointed by ARCP’s Chief Executive Officer, and shall serve at the pleasure of ARCP’s Chief Executive Officer; provided, however, that RCAP shall have the right to appoint one member to the Allocation Committee. ARCP’s Chief Executive Officer also may appoint one or more alternates for each Allocation Committee member who shall be authorized to act in such Allocation Committee member’s absence.

(b) The parties agree that ARCP shall establish and maintain a portfolio strategy committee (the “Portfolio Committee”), which shall review the allocations made by the Allocation Committee. The members of the Portfolio Committee shall be appointed by ARCP’s Chief Executive Officer, and shall serve at the pleasure of ARCP’s Chief Executive Officer; provided, however, that RCAP shall have the right to appoint one member to the Portfolio Committee.

1.2 Investment Allocation Process.

(a) The Allocation Committee shall endeavor to meet on a weekly basis. Members of the Allocation Committee may participate by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment if all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time. The Advisors shall be provided with, on a quarterly basis upon request, certified copies of the minutes of all meetings of the Allocation Committee.

(b) When a Proposed Property Acquisition is introduced to the Allocation Committee for review, the Allocation Committee shall analyze the following factors in determining whether a Proposed Property Acquisition is most appropriate for ARCP or a particular Fund (each, an “Entity”): (i) how the Proposed Property Acquisition fits into each Entity’s respective investment objectives; (ii) which Entity has available cash to acquire the Proposed Property Acquisition, the amount of such available cash, and how long such cash has been available for investment; (iii) the anticipated operating cash flows and cash requirements of each Entity, respectively; (iv) how the Proposed Property Acquisition would affect the tenant, industry and geographic concentrations in each Entity, respectively; and (v) how the size, income

tax effect, potential leverage and projected cash flow of the Proposed Property Acquisition would affect each Entity, respectively. If the Allocation Committee determines that a Proposed Property Acquisition is equally appropriate for one or more Entities, the Allocation Committee shall first offer such Proposed Property Acquisition to the Entity that has had the longest period of time elapse since it was allocated an investment opportunity of a similar size and type (e.g., office, industrial or single tenant or multi-tenant retail).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Allocation Committee, in accordance with Section 1.2(b) above, allocates a Proposed Property Acquisition with a value greater than one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000) to any of CCIT II, CCPT V, CCIT III or CCPT VI, then ARCP shall have the right to veto such allocation and allocate such Proposed Property Acquisition to ARCP.

1.3 Review by Portfolio Committee.

(a) The Portfolio Committee shall meet on a monthly basis to review the allocations made by the Allocation Committee. Members of the Portfolio Committee may participate by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment if all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time.

(b) If there have been no subsequent developments associated with a particular Proposed Property Acquisition or the Entity to which the Proposed Property Acquisition was initially allocated by the Allocation Committee, the Portfolio Committee will confirm the allocation of the Proposed Property Acquisition to the selected Entity. If, in the judgment of the Portfolio Committee, a subsequent development has caused any such Proposed Property Acquisition to be more appropriate for an Entity other than an Entity to which the Proposed Property Acquisition was initially allocated, the Portfolio Committee may override the Allocation Committee and specify that the Proposed Property Acquisition should be made available to such other Entity. In making this determination, the Portfolio Committee shall examine the factors set forth in Section 1.2(b) above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Portfolio Committee may not re-allocate a Proposed Property Acquisition with respect to which ARCP exercised its veto right set forth in Section 1.2(b) above. The re-allocation decisions, if any, made by the Portfolio Committee shall be recorded and the record retained by ARCP.

1.4 Compliance with this Agreement. Any determination of a failure to comply with this Agreement shall be reported immediately to the Allocation Committee and to members of senior management of ARCP.

1.5 Miscellaneous.

(a) The Portfolio Committee shall meet on a quarterly basis with the Allocation Committee to report to the Allocation Committee on the prior quarter’s allocations and to discuss potential investments that are in the pipeline, as well as the Portfolio Committee’s then-current thinking on future allocations.

(b) The Allocation Committee shall be responsible for establishing and updating the policies and rules set forth herein as it deems appropriate, taking into account all contractual and legal requirements it deems applicable, and shall suggest any amendments to this Agreement as necessary to comply with applicable law. The Allocation Committee shall, notwithstanding any contrary provision or policy, follow the Portfolio Committee’s guidance and directives.

(c) The covenants and agreements set forth in this Article I shall not apply to the extent inconsistent with the constituent documents of any of the Funds or ARCP (or any of its Affiliates), or applicable law.

ARTICLE II

MISCELLANEOUS

2.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(a) “Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the specified Person.

(b) “Person” means any individual, general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, corporation, joint venture, trust, business trust, cooperative or association and the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of such Person where the context so permits.

(c) “Proposed Property Acquisition” means any freestanding, single-tenant real estate assets net leased to investment grade and other creditworthy tenants with a lease duration of 10 or more years.

2.2 Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective at and as of the Second Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

2.4 Sub-advisor Agreements. This Agreement is subject to the terms of each of the Sub-advisor Agreements. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any of the Sub-advisor Agreements, the terms of such Sub-advisor Agreement shall control.

5. Standard of Care.

(a) The duties to be performed by the Providing Party pursuant to this Agreement may be performed by it or by its officers, members or directors or by Affiliates of the foregoing under the direction of the Providing Party or delegated to unaffiliated third parties under the Providing Party’s direction. If any duties to be performed hereunder are delegated by the Providing Party to an unaffiliated third party, then the Providing Party shall provide the Receiving Party with written notice of such delegation.

perform, or cause to be performed, the services hereunder such that the standard of care at which such services are performed shall be substantially the same as the standard of care that the Providing Party provides to its Affiliates with respect to such services. In the event there is any restriction on the Providing Party by an existing contract with a third party or by Law that would restrict the standard of care applicable to delivery of the services to be provided by the Providing Party to the Receiving Party, the Providing Party shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts in good faith to provide such services in a manner as closely as possible to the standards described in this Section 5(b).

(c) Each Party hereto shall be responsible for its own compliance with any and all Laws applicable to its performance under this Agreement. No Party will take any action in violation of any such applicable Law that would reasonably be likely to result in liability being imposed on the other Party.

The Premises License shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. Promptly following the date hereof, the Seller and the Buyer shall use their reasonable efforts (a) to negotiate a sublease (the “Sublease”) with respect to the Premises (provided that the terms of the Sublease shall in no way increase the cost of the use and access of the Premises and the related service provided hereunder by the Seller or any of its Affiliates to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates), or (b) assist the Buyer to negotiate a lease of the premises directly with the Landlord. To the extent not obtained prior to the date hereof, the Seller shall use its best efforts to obtain the written consent of the Landlord to (i) the use and access of the Premises by the Buyer pursuant to this Section 6 and (ii) the execution by the Seller and the Buyer of the Sublease. The Buyer shall not use the Premises in a manner, or take, cause or allow to be taken, an action with respect to the Premises that would cause the Seller to be in violation of the terms of the Premises Lease.

7. Fees and Other Compensation of the Seller. The Seller or its designees shall be entitled to receive from the Buyer its actual costs and expenses incurred (with costs and expenses in connection with the services provided by Seller’s Representatives calculated based on hourly rates set forth on Annex A). The Seller shall invoice the Buyer monthly in arrears for all costs and expenses due pursuant to this Section 7. The Buyer (or the Buyer’s Affiliates on behalf of the Buyer) shall pay to the Seller all invoiced amounts by wire transfer within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of such invoice as instructed by the Seller.

9. Records. At all times, the Providing Party shall keep books of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Receiving Party and the Receiving Party’s Representatives at any time during the ordinary business hours of the Providing Party.

10. Access. The Receiving Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, allow the Providing Party and its Representatives reasonable access to the facilities of the Receiving Party necessary for the Providing Party to provide services under this Agreement.

Upon the termination of this Agreement, each Party will cooperate with the other Party and take all reasonable steps requested to assist such other Party in making an orderly transition of the services provided hereunder. From and after the effective date of termination of this Agreement, neither Party shall be entitled to compensation for further services provided hereunder, but shall be paid all compensation and reimbursed for all expenses accrued through the date of termination within thirty (30) days of such termination.

12. Force Majeure. Each Party will be excused for any failure or delay in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations) if such failure or delay is caused by any act of God, accident, explosion, fire, act of terrorism, storm, earthquake, flood, strike, labor dispute or similar extraordinary circumstance or event outside the reasonable control of the non-performing Party (each a “Force Majeure Event”). Following notice of a Force Majeure Event by a Party, the Parties shall consult to assess the Force Majeure Event and any ways in which the same may be avoided or mitigated. During the pendency of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Providing Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the effect of Force Majeure Event on and to resume the performance of its obligations under this Agreement with the least practicable delay.

Receiving Party (and/or its Affiliates, as applicable), (ii) the Providing Party or its Affiliates were acting on behalf of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates or performing services for the Receiving Party or its Affiliates, (iii) such liability or loss or expense was not the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Providing Party or its Affiliates and (iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless shall be recoverable only out of the net assets of the Receiving Party and its Affiliates and not from the stockholders, partners or members of the Receiving Party and its Affiliates.

(d) The Receiving Party will advance amounts to the Providing Party or its Affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which indemnification is being sought is permissible only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates, (ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a stockholder or is initiated by a stockholder acting in his or her capacity as such and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves the advancement and (iii) the Providing Party or its Affiliates undertake in writing to repay the advanced funds to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates, as applicable, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which the Providing Party or its Affiliates are found not to be entitled to indemnification.

ARTICLE 2 REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.01 Registration Statement

(a) On or prior to the Filing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement or, if a Registration Statement is then effective, a supplement to the Prospectus, in either case covering the resale of all Registrable Securities for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 (or any successor provision) (the “Shelf Registration Statement”).

(b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible, if the Shelf Registration Statement is not then effective, but in any event on or prior to the Effectiveness Date, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or can be sold publicly without any volume limitations under Rule 144 (the “Effectiveness Period”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, by written notice to each Investor, suspend sales under a Registration Statement, including the Shelf Registration Statement, after the Effective Date thereof and/or require that each Investor immediately cease the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant thereto and/or defer the filing of any subsequent Registration Statement if the Company is engaged in a material merger, acquisition or sale and the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, by appropriate resolutions, that, as a result of such activity, (i) it would be materially detrimental to the Company (other than as relating solely to the price of the Common Stock) to maintain a Registration Statement at such time or (ii) it is in the best interests of the Company to suspend sales under such Registration Statement at such time. Upon receipt of such notice, each Investor shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration until such Investor is advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus or amended Prospectus, as applicable, may be used. In no event, however, shall this right be exercised to suspend sales beyond the period during which (in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company) the failure to require such suspension would be materially detrimental to the Company. The Company’s rights under this Section 2.01(c) may be exercised for a period of no more than 15 Trading Days at a time and not more than two times in any twelve-month (12) period. Immediately after the end of any suspension period under this Section 2.01(c), the Company shall take all necessary actions (including filing any required supplemental Prospectus) to restore the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement and the ability of each Investor to publicly resell its Registrable Securities pursuant to such effective Registration Statement.

Section 2.02 Piggyback Registration.

(a) Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its Common Stock in connection with an underwritten public offering (whether an offering of Common Stock by the Company, stockholders of the Company, or both, but other than in connection with a Special Registration (as defined below)), the Company will give prompt written notice to the Investors of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated filing date) and (subject to Section 2.02(b) below) will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) business days after the date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any Investor that has made such a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter, if any, on or before the fifth (5^th) business day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 2.02 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Investor has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. “Special Registration” means the registration of equity securities and/or options or other rights in respect thereof (i) on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or successor form), (ii) in connection with an at-the-market offering, (iii) on any other registration form which may not be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, or (iv) in connection with any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan.

(b) The right of the Investors to participate in a registration referred to in Section 2.02(a) will be conditioned upon such persons’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such persons’ Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and each such person will (together with the Company and the other persons distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. If any participating person disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company. If the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their reasonable opinion, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such Registration Statement or Prospectus only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which shares shall be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the shares the Company and/or selling stockholders, as applicable, propose to sell and (ii) second, shares of the participating Investors pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of such shares owned by each participating Investor.

Section 2.03 Requests and Demands.

(a) ARCP OP may make three (3) requests to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to a Registration Statement (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”). A request (a “Demand”) for an Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by ARCP OP by giving written notice to the Company (the “Demand Notice”). Each Demand Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities to be sold by ARCP OP in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Within two (2) business days after receipt of any Demand Notice, the Company shall send written notice of such requested Underwritten Shelf Takedown to each non-requesting Investor, if any, and shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five (5) business days after sending such notice (except that each non-requesting Investor shall have two (2) business days after receipt of such notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown in the case of a “bought deal”, “registered direct offering” or “overnight transaction”).

(b) The underwriters in any Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall be selected by ARCP OP.

(c) If an Investor desires to initiate an offering or sale of all or part of such Investor’s Registrable Securities that does not constitute an Underwritten Shelf Takedown (a “Non- Underwritten Shelf Takedown”), such Investor shall so indicate in a written request delivered to

the Company no later than two (2) business days (or in the event any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus is necessary, no later than five (5) business days) prior to the expected date of such Non-Underwritten Shelf Takedown, which request shall include (i) the total number of Registrable Securities expected to be offered and sold in such Non-Underwritten Shelf Takedown, (ii) the expected plan of distribution of such Non-Underwritten Shelf Takedown and (iii) the action or actions required (including the timing thereof) in connection with such Non-Underwritten Shelf Takedown, and, to the extent necessary, the Company shall file and effect an amendment or supplement to its Registration Statement or Prospectus for such purpose as soon as practicable. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise agreed to by the requesting Investor, a non-requesting Investor shall not have the right to participate in a Non-Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

(a) Not less than three (3) Trading Days prior to the filing of a Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to each Investor copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents (other than any document that is incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) will be subject to the review of each Investor. The Company shall reflect in each such document when so filed with the SEC all reasonable comments regarding the description of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement, the Investors or the plan of distribution as each Investor may reasonably and promptly propose no later than two (2) Trading Days after each Investor has been so furnished with copies of such documents as aforesaid

(e) Promptly deliver to each Investor, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request.

(g) Cooperate with the Investors to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates or book-entry records, as required by such Investors, representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates or records, as applicable, shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Transaction Documents and under law, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such certificates to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any of the Investors may reasonably request.

ARTICLE 3

Indemnification and Contribution

Section 3.01. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor beneficially owning any Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement, its officers, directors, employees, partners and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Damages”) caused by or relating to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or free-writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), or caused by or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Damages are caused by or related to any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission so made based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such Investor or on such Investor’s behalf expressly for use therein.

Section 3.02 Indemnification by Participating Investors. Each Investor holding Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity from the Company to such Investor provided in Section 3.01, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by such Investor or on such Investor’s behalf expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus or free-writing prospectus. No Investor shall be liable under this Section 3.02 for any Damages in excess of the net proceeds (after giving effect to any underwriters discounts and commissions) realized by such Investor in the sale of Registrable Securities of such Investor to which such Damages relate.

Section 3.03. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this ARTICLE 3, such Person (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (a) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (b) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, including one or more

defenses or counterclaims that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (c) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense within 30 days of notice pursuant to this Section 3.03. It is understood that, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding, and (B) does not include any injunctive or other equitable or non-monetary relief applicable to or affecting such Indemnified Person.

Section 3.04. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article 3 is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any Damages, then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Parties, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Damages shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this ARTICLE 3 was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.04 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.04, no Investor shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Investor from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the proceeding (after giving effect to any underwriters discounts and commissions) exceeds the

amount of any damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Investor. Each Investor’s obligation to contribute pursuant to this Section 3.04 is several in the proportion that the proceeds of the offering received by such Investor bears to the total proceeds of the offering received by all such Investors and not joint.

No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Article 3 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.

ARTICLE 4
