“Automatically, in the event (i) Owner sells or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the Properties (which for purposes of clarification may include the sale of all or substantially all of the REIT’s or the OP’s direct or indirect ownership interests in Owner) or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to Manager; or”
Section 2. Termination Fee. Section 8.02 of the Management Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“If Owner terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(e) before the end of the Term or any subsequent term year, then Owner shall be obligated to pay Manager an amount equal to three times the sum of the annual Property Management Fee for the trailing 12-month period; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated prior to the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, (a) Owner shall pay Manager $1,000,000.00, in addition to the amount otherwise payable under this paragraph, and (b) the Property Management Fee will be annualized for such 12-month period based on such Property Management Fee earned by Manager during such period.

prior to such termination, shall be due and payable upon termination of this Agreement. To the extent funds are available, such sums shall be payable from the Operating Account. Any amount due in excess of the funds available from the Operating Account shall be paid by Owner to Manager upon demand.
