4.Modification or Revocation of Authority of Advisor. The Board may, at any time upon the giving of notice to the Advisor, modify or revoke the authority or approvals set forth in Paragraph 3, provided however, that such modification or revocation shall be effective upon receipt by the Advisor and shall not be applicable to investment transactions to which the Advisor has committed the Company prior to the date of receipt by the Advisor of such notification.
5.Bank Accounts. The Advisor may establish and maintain one or more bank accounts in its own name for the account of the Company or in the name of the Company and may collect and deposit into any such account or accounts, and disburse from any such account or accounts, any money on behalf of the Company, under such terms and conditions as the Board may approve, provided that no funds shall be commingled with the funds of the Advisor; and the Advisor shall from time to time render appropriate accountings of such collections and payments to the Board and to the auditors of the Company.
6.Records; Access. The Advisor shall maintain appropriate records of all its activities hereunder and make such records available for inspection by the Board and by counsel, auditors and authorized agents of the Company, at any time or from time to time during normal business hours. The Advisor shall at all reasonable times have access to the books and records of the Company.
7.Limitations on Activities. Anything else in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Advisor shall refrain from taking any action which, in its sole judgment made in good faith, would (a) adversely affect the status of the Company as a REIT, (b) subject the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (c) violate any law, rule, regulation or statement of policy of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Company, its Shares or its other securities, or the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, except if such action shall be ordered by the Board, in which case the Advisor shall notify promptly the Board of the Advisor's judgment of the potential impact of such action and shall refrain from taking such action until it receives further clarification or instructions from the Board. In such event the Advisor shall have no liability for acting in accordance with the specific instructions of the Board so given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor, its directors, officers, employees and stockholders, and stockholders, directors and officers of the Advisor's Affiliates shall not be liable to the Company or to the Board or stockholders for any act or omission by the Advisor, its directors, officers or employees, or stockholders, directors or officers of the Advisor's Affiliates except as provided in Paragraphs 18 and 19 of this Agreement.
8.Fees.
(a)Asset Management Fee. Subject to the overall limitations contained below in this Paragraph 8(a), commencing on the date hereof, the Advisor shall be paid for the asset management services included in the services described in Paragraph 3 a monthly fee (the “Asset Management Fee”) in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the sum of (i) the product of the Asset Management Fee Percentage multiplied by the Adjusted Cost calculated on the last day of each preceding month, plus (ii) 0.50% of the Lindbergh/Energy Center Adjusted Cost as of the last day of each preceding month. For purposes of clarity, the Asset Management Fee payment due in January 2013 will be based on December 31, 2012 Adjusted Cost amounts, notwithstanding that December 31, 2012 precedes the effective date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding

11



the foregoing, if this Agreement is in effect for less than a full month, the amount of the Asset Management Fee shall be prorated to account for the percentage of the month in which this Agreement is in effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate Asset Management Fee payable to the Advisor in any three-month period pursuant to this Paragraph 8(a) shall not exceed 0.25% of the average Net Asset Value during such three-month period, calculated based on Net Asset Value as of the last day of each preceding month during the three-month period (the “Asset Management Fee Ceiling”). To the extent the sum of the three previous monthly asset management fee payments exceeds the Asset Management Fee Ceiling (such amount the “Ceiling Excess”), each next succeeding monthly payment of the Asset Management Fee will be reduced, with the amount by which the Asset Management Fee is reduced to be applied against the Ceiling Excess until the Ceiling Excess is eliminated. In no event, however, will the Advisor be required to make a cash payment on account of any Ceiling Excess.
(b)Acquisition Fees. The Advisor shall receive, as compensation for services rendered in connection with the investigation, selection and acquisition (by purchase, investment or exchange) of Properties, Acquisition Fees in an amount equal to 1% of the amount actually paid for the purchase of such Property, inclusive of any debt incurred for the purchase of such Property, but exclusive of Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with such acquisition. With respect to the acquisition of a Property through any Joint Venture, the Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor shall equal the product of (x) the Company's percentage equity interest in the Joint Venture and (y) 1% of the amount actually paid by the Joint Venture for the purchase of such Property, inclusive of any debt incurred for the purchase of such Property, but exclusive of Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses incurred in connection with such acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate amount of Acquisition Fees payable to the Advisor for the term of this Agreement pursuant to this Paragraph 8(b) shall not exceed the Acquisition Fee Limit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment of Acquisition Fees by the Company shall also be subject to the limitation provided for in Section 8.7 of the Articles of Incorporation. The Acquisition Fee Limit shall be an amount equal to $1,500,000 less all Acquisition Fees payable to Advisor for Properties acquired during 2012 pursuant to the provisions of the Initial Term Advisory Agreement, the April Advisory Agreement or any predecessor advisory agreement or otherwise. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for the purchase of a Property for which an Acquisition Fee is otherwise payable hereunder and any due diligence period in such agreement has expired prior to the termination of this Agreement, but the closing of such purchase occurs after the termination of this Agreement and prior to December 31, 2013, then the Advisor shall be entitled to receive such Acquisition Fee subject to the Acquisition Fee Limit and the other conditions hereof.
(c)Disposition Fee. If the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount of the services (as determined by the Conflicts Committee) in connection with the Sale of one or more Properties, the Advisor or such Affiliate shall receive at closing a Disposition Fee equal to the lesser of (i) the broker fee actually paid to a third party broker in connection with the sale of such Property or Properties or (ii) 0.30% of the sales price of such Property or Properties; provided, however, that no Disposition Fee shall be payable to the Advisor for Property Sales if such Sales involve the Company selling all or substantially all of its Properties in one or more transactions designed to effectuate a business combination transaction or Bulk Liquidation of the Company (as opposed to a Company liquidation not constituting a Bulk Liquidation, in which case the Disposition Fee would be payable if the Advisor or an Affiliate provides a substantial amount of services as provided above). Any Disposition Fee payable under this section may be paid in addition to real estate commissions paid to non-Affiliates, provided that the total real estate commissions (including such Disposition Fee) paid to all Persons by the Company for each Property shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 6.0% of the aggregate Contract Sales Price of each Property, or (ii) the Competitive Real Estate Commission for each Property.

12



(d)Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds. The Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds shall be payable to the Advisor in an amount equal to 10% of Net Sales Proceeds remaining after the Stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of (i) the Stockholders' 8% Return, and (ii) 100% of Invested Capital plus Distributions attributable to Net Sales Proceeds. Following Listing, no Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds will be paid to the Advisor.
(e)Subordinated Incentive Fee. Upon Listing, the Advisor shall be entitled to the Subordinated Incentive Fee in an amount equal to 10.0% of the amount by which (i) the market value of the outstanding stock of the Company, measured by taking the average closing price or average of bid and asked price, as the case may be, over a period of 30 days during which the Shares are traded, with such period beginning 180 days after Listing (the “Market Value”), plus the total of all Distributions paid to Stockholders from the Company's inception until the date that Market Value is determined, exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) 100% of Invested Capital plus Distributions attributable to Net Sales Proceeds, and (B) the total Distributions required to be paid to the Stockholders in order to pay the Stockholders' 8% Return from inception through the date Market Value is determined. The Company shall have the option to pay such fee in the form of cash, Shares, a promissory note to be negotiated in light of then-existing market conditions or any combination of the foregoing. The Subordinated Incentive Fee will be reduced by the amount of any prior payment to the Advisor of a Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds. In the event the Subordinated Incentive Fee is paid to the Advisor following Listing, no other performance fee or Subordinated Share of Net Sales Proceeds, including the Subordinated Performance Fee Due Upon Termination, will be paid to the Advisor.
(f)Changes to Fee Structure. In the event of Listing, the Company and the Advisor shall negotiate in good faith to establish a fee structure appropriate for a perpetual-life entity.
(g)Fee Credit. Within 15 days of the end of each month in which this Agreement is in effect, the Advisor shall credit an amount of $166,667 against all earned but unpaid fees owed to the Advisor under this Agreement, which amount represents a reduction in the monthly fees earned by the Advisor pursuant to this Paragraph 8 during the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is in effect for less than a full month, the amount credited to the Company shall be prorated to account for the percentage of the month in which this Agreement was in effect.
9.Expenses.
(a)Reimbursable Expenses. In addition to the compensation paid to the Advisor pursuant to Paragraph 8 hereof, the Company shall pay directly or reimburse the Advisor for all of the expenses paid or incurred by the Advisor (to the extent not reimbursable by another party, such as the dealer manager) in connection with the services it provides to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to:
(i)the Organization and Offering Expenses; provided, however, that within 60 days after the end of the month in which an Offering terminates, the Advisor shall reimburse the Company to the extent (i) Capped O&O Expenses borne by the Company exceed 2.0% of the Gross Proceeds raised in a completed offering and (ii) Organization and Offering Expenses borne by the Company exceed 15% of the Gross Proceeds raised in a completed Offering;
(ii)Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses payable to unaffiliated Persons incurred in connection with the selection and acquisition of Properties;
(iii)the actual cost of goods and services used by the Company and obtained from entities not affiliated with the Advisor;

13



(iv)interest and other costs for borrowed money, including discounts, points and other similar fees;
(v)taxes and assessments on income or Property and taxes as an expense of doing business;
(vi)costs associated with insurance required in connection with the business of the Company or by the Board;
(vii)all expenses in connection with payments to the Board and meetings of the Board;
(viii)expenses associated with Listing or with the issuance and distribution of securities other than the Shares, such as selling commissions and fees, advertising expenses, taxes, legal and accounting fees, listing and registration fees;
(ix)expenses of organizing, redomesticating, merging, liquidating or dissolving the Company or of amending the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws;
(x)expenses of preparing the annual report and proxy statements and other reports required by governmental entities;
(xi)administrative service expenses, including all costs and expenses incurred by Advisor in fulfilling its duties hereunder, such as reasonable wages and salaries (but excluding bonuses) and other employee-related expenses of all employees of Advisor or its Affiliates to the extent engaged in the management, administration, operations, and marketing of the Company, including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses that are directly related to their services provided hereunder; and
(xii)audit, accounting and legal fees.
No reimbursement shall be made for costs of personnel of the Advisor or its Affiliates to the extent that such personnel perform services in connection with services for which the Advisor receives the Acquisition Fee or the Disposition Fee.
(b)Other Services. Should the Board request that the Advisor or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Paragraph 3, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by the Advisor and the Conflicts Committee, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(c)Timing of and Limitations on Reimbursements.
(i)Expenses incurred by the Advisor on behalf of the Company and payable pursuant to this Paragraph 9 shall be reimbursed no less than monthly to the Advisor. The Advisor shall prepare a statement documenting the expenses of the Company during each quarter, and shall deliver such statement to the Company within 45 days after the end of each quarter.
(ii)The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor at the end of any fiscal quarter Operating Expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the “Expense Year”), exceed (the “Excess Amount”) the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income (the “2%/25% Guidelines”) for such year unless the Conflicts Committee determines that such excess was justified, based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which the Conflicts Committee deems sufficient. If the

14



Conflicts Committee does not approve such excess as being so justified, any Excess Amount paid to the Advisor during a fiscal quarter shall be repaid to the Company. If the Conflicts Committee determines such excess was justified, then within 60 days after the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company for which total reimbursed Operating Expenses for the Expense Year exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor, at the direction of the Conflicts Committee, shall send to the stockholders a written disclosure of such fact, together with an explanation of the factors the Conflicts Committee considered in determining that such excess expenses were justified. The Company will ensure that such determination will be reflected in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors. All figures used in the foregoing computation shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
(iii)The Company shall not reimburse the Advisor or its Affiliates for Portfolio G&A Expenses or Personnel Expenses incurred during the term of this Agreement if such reimbursement would cause total reimbursements during the term of this Agreement to exceed $18,167,000 for Portfolio G&A Expenses or $10,000,000 for Personnel Expenses; provided that these caps assume a term of 12 months and shall be prorated as necessary to the extent the term of this Agreement is less than 12 months; provided further that these caps shall not be applicable for unbudgeted expenses deemed by the Conflicts Committee to be justified.
(d)Occupancy Costs. The Company shall reimburse the Advisor for occupancy costs at a fixed amount of $21,000 per month. Notwithstanding Paragraph 9(c)(i) above, this amount shall be paid to the Advisor on the first business day of each month in which this agreement is in effect. No other amounts related to the Company's occupancy of space at 6200 The Corners Parkway in Norcross Georgia, such as tenant improvement costs, operating expenses, or common area maintenance, shall be due.
10.Fidelity Bond. The Advisor shall maintain a fidelity bond for the benefit of the Company which bond shall insure the Company from losses of up to $10,000,000 and shall be of the type customarily purchased by entities performing services similar to those provided to the Company by the Advisor.
11.Other Activities of the Advisor.
(a)General. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association. The Advisor may, with respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor shall report to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, which creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor's obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other partnership, corporation, firm, individual, trust or association.
(b)Policy with Respect to Allocation of Investment Opportunities. Before the Advisor presents an investment opportunity that would in its judgment be suitable for the Company to another Advisor-sponsored program, the Advisor shall determine in its sole discretion that the investment opportunity is more suitable for such other program than for the Company based on factors such as the following: the investment objectives and criteria of each program; the cash requirements and anticipated cash flow of each program; the size of the investment opportunity; the effect of the acquisition on diversification of each program's investments by type of commercial property,

15



geographic area and tenant base; the estimated income tax effects of the purchase on each entity; the policies of each program relating to leverage; the funds of each entity available for investment and the length of time such funds have been available for investment; the size of the investment; the credit quality of the tenants; and the existence of special factors, such as whether the property is adjacent to another property owned by a program. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available that is, in the sole discretion of the Advisor, equally suitable for both the Company and another Advisor-sponsored program, then the Advisor may offer the other program the investment opportunity if it has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity. The Advisor will use its reasonable efforts to fairly allocate investment opportunities in accordance with such allocation method and will promptly disclose any material deviation from such policy or the establishment of a new policy, which shall be allowed provided (1) the Board is provided with notice of such policy at least 60 days prior to such policy becoming effective and (2) such policy provides for the reasonable allocation of investment opportunities among such programs. The Advisor shall provide the Conflicts Committee with any information reasonably requested so that the Conflicts Committee can ensure that the allocation of investment opportunities is applied fairly. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Advisor or an Affiliate from pursuing an investment opportunity directly rather than offering it to the Company or another Advisor-sponsored program so long as the Advisor is fulfilling its obligation to present a continuing and suitable investment program to the Company which is consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Company.
12.Relationship of Advisor and Company. The Company and the Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as such on either of them.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become binding when the counterparts hereof, taken together, bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories.
29.Name. Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc. has a proprietary interest in the name “Wells.” Accordingly, and in recognition of this right, if at any time the Company ceases to retain Wells Real Estate Advisory Services II, LLC or an Affiliate thereof to perform the services of Advisor, the Company will, promptly after receipt of written request from Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc., cease to conduct business under or use the name “Wells” or any derivative thereof and the Company shall use its best efforts to change the name of the Company to a name that does not contain the name “Wells” or any other word or words that might, in the sole discretion of the Advisor, be susceptible of indication of some form of relationship between the Company and the Advisor or any Affiliate thereof. Consistent with the foregoing, it is specifically recognized that the Advisor or one or more of its Affiliates has in the past and may in the future organize, sponsor or otherwise permit to exist other investment vehicles (including vehicles for investment in real estate) and financial and service organizations having “Wells” as a part of their name, all without the need for any consent (and without the right to object thereto) by the Company or its Board.

Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc., a Georgia corporation and the parent company of the Advisor (the “Guarantor”), does hereby in all respects guarantee the due and proper performance of the services to be provided and the full and timely payment of the amounts payable under this Agreement by the Advisor, which guarantee shall extend to include any renewal or amendment to this Agreement, provided Guarantor's obligations are not materially increased by such renewal or amendment without the Guarantor's consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. If the Advisor fails to perform all or any of its obligations, duties, undertakings, and covenants to provide services or make payments (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”) under this Agreement (unless relieved from the performance of any part of this Agreement by statute, by the decision of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction or by written waiver of the Company), upon written notice from the Company, the Guarantor shall perform or cause to be performed such Guaranteed Obligations. The termination of the Advisor shall constitute a termination of this guarantee with respect to the future performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, but no termination of Advisor shall terminate or limit the obligations of the Guarantor under this guarantee arising or accruing prior to such termination of the Advisor. This guarantee will be applicable to and binding upon the successors and assigns of Guarantor. Guarantor joins in this Agreement as a signatory hereto for the purposes set forth in this Paragraph 30.

3.Duties of Wells REF. As requested by the Company and under the supervision of the employees of the Company, Wells REF, either directly or by engaging an Affiliate, shall provide consulting and support services to the Company including:

(e)providing reports concerning the value of investments or contemplated investments of the Company in Properties;
(f)consulting with respect to the strategies for the administration, promotion, management, operation, maintenance, improvement, financing and refinancing, marketing, leasing, and disposition of Properties on an overall portfolio basis.
Notwithstanding the foregoing list of duties of Wells REF, Wells REF has no obligation hereunder to provide the Stockholder and communication services that are the subject of the Investor Services Agreement nor the property management services that are the subject of the Master Property Management, Leasing and Construction Management Agreement, nor any other services provided for pursuant to any other agreements entered into between the Company and Wells REF and its Affiliates not mentioned herein.
4.Fees.
(a)AM Consulting Fee. Subject to the overall limitations contained below in this Paragraph 4(a), commencing on the date hereof, Wells REF shall be paid as compensation for the consultation services rendered to the Company hereunder a monthly fee (the “AM Consulting Fee”) in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the sum of (i) the product of the AM Consulting Fee Percentage multiplied by the Adjusted Cost calculated on the last day of each preceding month, plus (ii) 0.50% of the Lindbergh/Energy Center Adjusted Cost as of the last day of each preceding month. For purposes of clarity, the AM Consulting Fee payment due in the first month of this Agreement will be based on Adjusted Cost amounts from the last date of the month prior to this Agreement, notwithstanding that this date precedes the effective date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is in effect for less than a full month, the amount of the AM Consulting Fee shall be prorated to account for the percentage of the month in which this Agreement is in effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate AM Consulting Fee payable to Wells REF in any three-month period pursuant to this Paragraph 4(a) shall not exceed 0.25% of the average Net Asset Value during such three-month period, calculated based on Net Asset Value as of the last day of each preceding month during the three-month period (the “AM Consulting Fee Ceiling”). To the extent the sum of the three previous monthly AM Consulting Fee payments exceeds the AM Consulting Fee Ceiling (such amount the “Ceiling Excess”), each next succeeding monthly payment of the AM Consulting Fee will be reduced, with the amount by which the AM Consulting Fee is reduced to be applied against the Ceiling Excess until the Ceiling Excess is eliminated. In no event, however, will Wells REF be required to make a cash payment on account of any Ceiling Excess.

(b)Fee Credit. Within 15 days of the end of each month in which this Agreement is in effect, Wells REF shall credit an amount of $166,667 against all earned but unpaid fees owed to Wells REF under this Agreement, which amount represents a reduction in the monthly fees earned by Wells REF pursuant to this Paragraph 4 during the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is in effect for less than a full month, the amount credited to the Company shall be prorated to account for the percentage of the month in which this Agreement was in effect.
5.Expenses for Other Services. Should the Board request that Wells REF or any director, officer or employee thereof render services for the Company other than set forth in Paragraph 2, such services shall be separately compensated at such rates and in such amounts as are agreed by Wells REF and the Company, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation, and shall not be deemed to be services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Wells REF shall obtain the Company's written approval prior to incurring any third-party expenses for the account of, or reimbursable by, the Company.
6.Occupancy.
(a)Occupancy Rights. During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to occupy the 6th floor at 6200 The Corners Parkway in Norcross, Georgia.
(b)Occupancy Costs.

This amount shall be paid to Wells REF on the first business day of each month in which this agreement is in effect, provided, however, that if the term of this Agreement begins during a month for which Wells REF has been paid an occupancy cost fee pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, then the fee pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall commence on the first business day of the following month. No other amounts related to the Company's occupancy of space at 6200 The Corners Parkway, such as tenant improvement costs, operating expenses, or common area maintenance, shall be due.
