“Disposition Fee” shall mean the disposition fees payable by the REIT to the Advisor pursuant to Section 8.04 of the Advisory Agreement associated with the sale of equity interests in or real property owned by KBSIII Carillon L.P., KBSIII 515 Congress, LLC, KBSIII 155 North 400 West, LLC, KBSIII 201 17th Street, LLC or KBSIII 500 West Madison, LLC.

“Senior Default” shall mean any “Event of Default” under the Credit Agreement.

“Subordinated Debt” shall mean the Management Fee and Permitted Disposition Fee.

“Subordinated Debt Documents” shall mean the Advisory Agreement.

3.Subordination. The payment of any and all Subordinated Debt is expressly subordinated to the Senior Debt to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Agreement. Until the Senior Debt has been paid in full in immediately available funds (other than contingent indemnifications for which no claim for payment has been made) and the Lenders’ commitment to make Loans under the Credit Agreement has terminated, no payment of any kind (by voluntary payment, prepayment, setoff or otherwise) of any portion of the Subordinated Debt may be made, directly or indirectly, by the REIT or any Loan Party or received or accepted by the Advisor at any time without the Agent’s prior written consent; provided, however, that the REIT or any Loan Party may make, and the Advisor may receive, accept and retain, (i) Permitted Management Fees and (ii) Permitted Disposition Fees to the extent payment of such Permitted Disposition Fees is permitted under Section 7.7(c) of the Credit Agreement, so long as both before and after giving pro-forma effect to the making of any such payments, a Fee Subordination Event is not in existence or would result therefrom.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein stated, at any time any Management Fees are not allowed to be paid as a result of this Section 3, such Management Fees payable but blocked pursuant to this Section 3 may accrue, but shall not be paid, and following such Fee Subordination Event being waived by the Agent and the Required Lenders, such accrued amounts of unpaid Management Fees may be paid to the Advisor so long as no other Fee Subordination Event has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. For the avoidance of doubt, any interest accrued under the Advisory Agreement with respect to Management Fees, if applicable, shall not be payable until Senior Debt has been paid in full in immediately available funds (other than contingent indemnifications for which no claim for payment has been made) and the Lenders’ commitment to make Advances under the Credit Agreement has terminated.

4.Prohibited Payments. Until such time as the Senior Debt has been paid in full in immediately available funds (other than contingent indemnifications for which no claim for payment has been made) and the Lenders’ commitment to make Loans under the Credit Agreement

has terminated, any payments on the Subordinated Debt received by the Advisor in contravention of the terms of this Agreement or at any time that the Advisor is in violation of its undertakings or obligations under this Agreement shall be held in trust for Agent and the Lenders and the Advisor will promptly turn over any such payments to Agent, without further notice or demand, in the form received, to be applied to the Senior Debt as determined by Agent.

5.Subordinated Debt to be Unsecured. Until such time as the Senior Debt has been paid in full in immediately available funds (other than contingent indemnifications for which no claim for payment has been made) and the Lenders’ commitment to make Loans under the Credit Agreement has terminated, the Loan Parties shall not grant to the Advisor, and the Advisor shall not have or take, any Lien on or security interest in any assets of any Loan Party, regardless of whether any such assets are now owned or hereafter acquired or created. The Advisor represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that the Subordinated Debt is unsecured.

6.Prohibited Actions. Until such time as the Senior Debt has been paid in full in immediately available funds (other than contingent indemnifications for which no claim for payment has been made) and any commitment of the Lenders to make Loans under the Credit Agreement has terminated, the Advisor shall not:

(a)commence any claim, litigation, suit or administrative proceeding (collectively, “Proceeding”) of any kind against any Loan Party to (I) recover all or any part of the Subordinated Debt not paid when due except to the extent of commencing an action to avoid the running of an applicable statute of limitations; or (II) enforce any judgment to recover all or any part of the Subordinated Debt; or

(b)join with any creditor in bringing any Proceeding against any Loan Party under any liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, reorganization, rearrangement, or other insolvency law now or hereafter existing.

7.No Contest. The Advisor will not make any assertion, claim or argument in any action, suit or Proceeding of any nature whatsoever in any way challenging the priority, validity or effectiveness of the liens and security interests granted to Agent under and in connection with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, instruments and agreements entered into in connection therewith.

8.Bankruptcy. In the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, custodianship, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other proceeding for the relief or liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any Loan Party or any assets of any Loan Party (including, without limitation, any such proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) (a “Proceeding”), the Advisor may, but is not required to, file any claims, proofs of claim, or other instruments of similar character necessary to enforce the obligations, if any, of such Loan Party in respect of the Subordinated Debt and will hold in trust for Agent, and the Lenders and pay over to Agent in the form received, to be applied against the Senior Debt as determined by Agent, any and all money, dividends or other assets received in any such proceedings on account of the Subordinated Debt, unless and until the Senior Debt shall be paid in full in cash.

9.Amendments to Senior Debt. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, Agent may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Advisor, without incurring responsibility to the Advisor and without impairing or releasing any of Agent’s rights, or any of the obligations of the Advisor hereunder:

(a)Change the amount, manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of or increase, renew or alter the Senior Debt, or any part thereof, waive nonperformance by Loan Parties of or amend, alter, supplement or replace the Credit Agreement, the notes issued thereunder, any other Loan Documents or agreements related thereto, in any manner or enter into or amend in any manner any other agreement relating to the Senior Debt;
