A There is no established public trading market for our shares of common stock. Our shares are not listed or traded on any national securities exchange or quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system. We calculated the potential realizable value of each grant of options assuming a market price of $11.00 as of the grant date, April 12, 2006. This conclusion was based upon ___________________________. Although we estimate that the fair market value of our shares is $11.00 per share, there can be no assurances that our shareholders could sell any or all of their shares for $11.00 per share, or that our shares would trade at such a price if we were to list on a national securities exchange or become quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Services Provided by Affiliates of the Business Manager/Advisor. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, we had incurred $457,007 and $234,014 of offering costs for both the initial public offering and the second offering, of which $444,566 and $175,509, respectively, was paid or accrued to affiliates. Pursuant to the terms of our offerings, our business manager/advisor guaranteed payment of all public offering expenses (excluding sales commissions, the marketing contribution and the due diligence expense allowance) in excess of 5.5% of the gross proceeds of the offering or gross offering proceeds or all organization and offering expenses (including selling commissions) which together exceed 15% of gross offering proceeds. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, offering costs did not exceed the 5.5% and 15% limitations.
Our business manager/advisor and its affiliates were entitled to reimbursement for salaries and expenses of employees of our business manager/advisor and its affiliates relating to the offerings. In addition, an affiliate of our business manager/advisor was entitled to receive selling commissions, the marketing contribution and due diligence expense allowance from us in connection with the offering. Such costs were offset against the stockholders' equity accounts. Such costs totaled $444,566 and $175,509, of which $177 and $2,880 remained unpaid at December 31, 2005 and 2004.
Our business manager/advisor and its affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for general and administrative costs relating to our administration and the acquisition of properties. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the period from March 5, 2003 through December 31, 2003, we incurred $4,528, $1,543 and $194 of these costs, respectively. Of these costs, $1,120 and $957 remained unpaid as of December 31, 2005 and 2004.
An affiliate of our business manager/advisor provides investment advisory services related to us related to our securities investments for an annual fee. The fee is incremental based upon the aggregate amount of assets invested. Based upon the amounts of assets that we had invested at December 31, 2005, this fee was equal to .75% of the aggregate assets invested. We incurred fees totaling $536 for the year ended December 31, 2005. $100 of this amount remained unpaid at December
10
31, 2005. No such fees were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2004 or the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) through December 31, 2003.
An affiliate of our business manager/advisor provides loan servicing to us for an annual fee. Prior to May 1, 2005, the agreement allowed for annual fees totaling .03% of the first $1 billion in mortgage balance outstanding and .01% of the remaining mortgage balance, payable monthly. Effective May 1, 2005, if the number of loans exceeds 100, a monthly fee will be charged in the amount of 190 dollars per month, per loan being serviced. If the amount of loans being serviced are less than 100, then the amount per month, per loan increases to 225 dollars. Such fees totaled $534 and $141 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $1 for the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) to December 31, 2003. $42 remained unpaid as of December 31, 2005. None remained unpaid as of December 31, 2004.
We use the services of an affiliate of our business manager/advisor to facilitate the mortgage financing that we obtained on some of the properties purchased. We pay the affiliate .2% of the principal balance of mortgage loans obtained. Such costs are capitalized as loan fees and amortized over the respective loan term. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we paid loan fees totaling $5,049 and $3,475, respectively, to this affiliate. No amounts remained unpaid as of December 31, 2005 or 2004.
We may pay an advisor asset management fee of not more than 1% of our average invested assets to our business manager/advisor. Our average invested asset value is defined as the average of the total book value, including acquired intangibles, of our real estate assets invested in equity interests plus our loans receivable secured by real estate, before reserves for depreciation, reserves for bad debt or other similar non-cash reserves. We compute our average invested assets by taking the average of these values at the end of each month for which we are calculating the fee. The fee is payable quarterly in an amount equal to 1/4 of 1% of our average invested assets as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. Based upon the maximum allowable advisor asset management fee of 1% of our average invested assets, maximum advisor asset management fees of $54,933, $14,971 and $152 were allowed for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) through D ecember 31, 2003, respectively. Our business manager/advisor has agreed to forego any fees allowed but not taken during those periods. For any year in which we qualify as a REIT, our advisor must reimburse us for the following amounts if any: (1) the amounts by which our total operating expenses, the sum of the advisor asset management fee plus other operating expenses, paid during the previous fiscal year exceed the greater of: (i) 2% of our average assets for that fiscal year, or (ii) 25% of our net income for that fiscal year; plus (2) an amount, which will not exceed the advisor asset management fee for that year, equal to any difference between the total amount of distributions to stockholders for that year and a 6% minimum annual return on the net investment of stockholders. For the year ended December 31, 2005, we accrued fees totaling $20,925, $3,000 of which remained unpaid as of December 31, 2005. For the year ended December 31, 2004 and the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) t o December 31, 2003, we neither paid nor accrued such fees because our business manager/advisor agreed to forego any fees for those time periods.
The property managers, entities owned principally by individuals who are affiliates of our business manager/advisor, are entitled to receive property management fees totaling 4.5% of gross operating income, for management and leasing services. We incurred property management fees of $20,686, $5,382 and $17, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) through December 31, 2003, respectively. None remained unpaid as of December 31, 2005 or 2004.
We established a discount stock purchase policy for our affiliates and affiliates of our business manager/advisor that enables the affiliates to purchase shares of common stock at either $8.95 or $9.50 a share depending on when the shares are purchased. We sold 276,628, 605,060 and 59,497 shares of common stock to affiliates and recognized an expense related to these discounts of $219, $427 and $62 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the period from March 5, 2003 (inception) through December 31, 2003, respectively.
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, we were due funds from our affiliates for costs paid by us on their behalf in the amount of $3,493 and $654, respectively.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, we entered into a subscription agreement with Minto Builders (Florida), Inc. referred to as MB REIT. Under this agreement, we may purchase up to 920,000 newly issued series C preferred shares at a purchase
11
price of $1,276 per share. If Inland American Real Estate Trust, Inc., (an affiliate) referred to as Inland American REIT, does not satisfy their obligations under their agreement with MB REIT, we may be required to purchase series C preferred shares from MB REIT in an amount equal to approximately $300,000. MB REIT has the right to redeem any series C preferred shares it issues to us with the proceeds of any subsequent capital contributed by Inland American REIT. MB REIT is required to redeem any and all outstanding series C preferred shares held by us by December 31, 2006. The series C preferred shares entitles us to an annual dividend equal to 7.0% on the face amount of the series C preferred shares payable monthly. As of December 31, 2005, we had purchased 175,551 series C preferred shares for a total amount of $224,003. Due to the lack of influence that we have over the operating and financial policies of the investee, this investment is accounted for under the cost method in which investments are recorded at their original cost. We earned $2,108 of dividends on this investment during the year ended December 31, 2005, all of which remained unpaid as of that date.
We entered into a fee arrangement with Inland American REIT whereby we are paid for guarantying customary non- recourse carve out provisions of Inland American REIT's financings until such time as Inland American REIT reaches a net worth of $300,000. The fee arrangement calls for a fee of $50 annually for loans equal to and in excess of $50,000 and $25 for loans less than $50,000.
On September 28, 2005, an affiliate of ours purchased a single-user net lease property in Pearland, Texas subject to an existing mortgage which we had previously funded on the property in the amount of $7,391. In addition, on that date, we funded an additional amount of $1,346 on the loan to the affiliate, bringing the total amount funded by us to $8,737. The total loan amount represented 100% of the purchase price of the property plus accrued interest on the previous loan balance. The entity which owns the property was considered a variable interest entity and we were considered the primary beneficiary as defined in FIN 46 (R). Therefore, this entity was consolidated by us until December 28, 2005, at which time the loan was paid off in full including accrued interest.
On October 7, 2005, an affiliate of ours acquired a freestanding office building leased to the General Services Administration (GSA) for the U.S. Joint Force Command. We provided the initial financing of approximately $24,300 for the affiliate to acquire the property. The loan was repaid in full including accrued interest on December 6, 2005.
During 2004, our sponsor advanced us amounts to pay a portion of distributions to our stockholders until funds available for distribution were sufficient to cover the distributions. Our sponsor forgave $2,369 of these amounts during the second quarter of 2004 and these funds were no longer due. As of December 31, 2004, we owed funds to our sponsor in the amount of $3,523 for repayment of the funds advanced for payment of distributions. These funds were repaid in their entirety during 2005 and no funds were due to our sponsor as of December 31, 2005. No funds were advanced during 2005.

Mr. Goodwin has agreed to advise us on business strategy and Mr. Cosenza has agreed to advise us on property acquisitions. Mr. Goodwin is the Chairman of the Inland Real Estate Group of Companies.

The purpose of the MDC is to provide advice to our CEO and to the Board of Directors, in accordance with Mr. Goodwin’s consulting agreement signed in connection with our acquisition of the property managers and advisor in December 2004 (the business combinatio n) and as required by a Special Committee of our Board. Strategic initiatives and general operating issues are discussed at these meetings. The MDC does not make day-to-day business decisions. Mr. Goodwin and certain other Inland Real Estate Group executives are required to perform these services for no compensation. MDC meetings are generally held monthly and we determine the agenda for MDC meetings. As of December 31, 2005 Robert D. Parks, who is a shareholder of ours, was our Chairman and served on our Board of Directors. We have a non-compensatory consulting agreement with him to advise us on matters within his expertise and relating to our business, and to attend certain meetings of our management team. Thomas P. McGuinness is our Chief Operating Officer (COO) and a shareholder of ours. We have a compensatory arrangement for his services as our COO and a non-compensatory agreement with him regarding his advice on property management and leasing. On March 3, 2006, Mr. Parks resigned as our Chairman and as one of our affiliated directors, at which time, Richard Imperiale, an independent director, was selected by the Board of Directors to serve as our Chairman and Mr. McGuinness was appointed an affiliated director. Mr. Parks will continues to serve on the MDC.
