This Amendment amends that certain Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement dated as of September 16, 2005 by and between the Company and the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”). All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings given to each in the Advisory Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Independent Directors previously approved the disclosure in the Company’s prospectus dated June 27, 2005, as supplemented (the “Prospectus”) that a finance coordination fee would be payable to the Advisor in connection with obtaining any debt financing that the Company uses for the acquisition of property and other investments in the section of the Prospectus captioned “Management - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions - Advisory Agreement” beginning on page 57 of the prospectus;

WHEREAS, the Independent Directors resolved to modify the Advisory Agreement to clarify, consistent with the above-described disclosure in the Prospectus, that a Finance Coordination Fee would be payable, in the discretion of the Independent Directors, if the Advisor performs substantial services on behalf of the Company in obtaining debt financing that is used in connection with the acquisition of property; and

WHEREAS, Section 6.04 of the Advisory Agreement provides that the Advisory Agreement shall not be changed, modified, or amended, in whole or in part, except by an instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto, or their respective successors or assignees;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
