NOTE 12 — RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has incurred commissions, fees and expenses payable to Cole Advisors II and its
affiliates in connection with the Offerings, and has incurred and will continue to incur
commissions, fees and expenses in connection with the acquisition, management and sale of the
assets of the Company.
DRIP Offering
During the three and six months June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not pay any amounts to
Cole Advisors II for selling commissions, dealer manager fees, or other organization and offering
expense reimbursements incurred in connection with the DRIP Offering.
Acquisitions and Operations
Cole Advisors II or its affiliates also receives acquisition and advisory fees of up to 2.0%
of the contract purchase price of each asset for the acquisition, development or construction of
properties, and will be reimbursed for acquisition expenses incurred in the process of acquiring
properties, so long as the total acquisition fees and expenses relating to the transaction do not
exceed 4.0% of the contract purchase price.
The Company paid, and expects to continue to pay, Cole Advisors II an annualized asset
management fee of 0.25% of the aggregate asset value of the Company’s aggregate invested assets, as
reasonably estimated by the Company’s board of directors. The Company also reimburses certain costs
and expenses incurred by Cole Advisors II in providing asset management services.
The Company paid, and expects to continue to pay, Cole Realty Advisors, Inc. (“Cole Realty
Advisors”), its affiliated property manager, up to (i) 2.0% of gross revenues received from the
Company’s single tenant properties and (ii) 4.0% of gross revenues received from the Company’s
multi-tenant properties, plus leasing commissions at prevailing market rates; provided however,
that the aggregate of all property management and leasing fees paid to affiliates plus all payments
to third parties will not exceed the amount that other nonaffiliated management and leasing
companies generally charge for similar services in the same geographic location. Cole Realty
Advisors may subcontract certain of its duties for a fee that may be less than the fee provided for
in the property management agreement. The Company will also reimburse Cole Realty Advisors’ costs
of managing and leasing the properties.
The Company will reimburse Cole Advisors II for all expenses it paid or incurred in connection
with the services provided to the Company, subject to the limitation that the Company will not
reimburse Cole Advisors II for any amount by which its operating expenses (including the Asset
Management Fee) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeds the greater of (i) 2% of
average invested assets, or (ii) 25% of net income other than any additions to reserves for
depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of
assets for that period, unless the Company’s independent directors find that a higher level of
expense is justified for that year based on unusual and non-recurring factors. The Company will
not reimburse Cole Advisors II for personnel costs in connection with services for which Cole
Advisors II receives acquisition fees and real estate commissions.
If Cole Advisors II provides services in connection with the origination or refinancing of any
debt financing obtained by the Company that is used to acquire properties or to make other
permitted investments, or that is assumed, directly or indirectly, in connection with the
acquisition of properties, the Company will pay Cole Advisors II or its affiliates a financing
coordination fee equal to 1% of the amount available under such financing; provided however, that
Cole Advisors II or its affiliates shall not be entitled to a financing coordination fee in
connection with the refinancing of any loan secured by any particular property that was previously
subject to a refinancing in which Cole Advisors II or its affiliates received such a fee.
Financing coordination fees payable from loan proceeds from permanent financing are paid to Cole
Advisors II or its affiliates as the Company acquires and/or assumes such permanent financing.
However, no financing coordination fees are paid on loan proceeds from any line of credit until
such time as all net offering proceeds have been invested by the Company.
The Company recorded fees and expense reimbursements as shown in the table below for services
provided by Cole Advisors II and its affiliates related to the services described above during the
period indicated (in thousands):
Liquidation/Listing
If Cole Advisors II or its affiliates provides a substantial amount of services, as determined
by the Company’s independent directors, in connection with the sale of one or more properties, the
Company will pay Cole Advisors II up to one-half of the brokerage commission paid, but in no event
to exceed an amount equal to 2% of the sales price of each property sold. In no event will the
combined real estate commission paid to Cole Advisors II, its affiliates and unaffiliated third
parties exceed 6% of the contract sales price. In addition, after investors have received a return
of their net capital contributions and an 8% annual cumulative, non-compounded return, then Cole
Advisors II is entitled to receive 10% of the remaining net sale proceeds.
Upon listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange, a fee equal to
10% of the amount by which the market value of the Company’s outstanding stock plus all
distributions paid by the Company prior to listing, exceeds the sum of the total amount of capital
raised from investors and the amount of cash flow necessary to generate an 8% annual cumulative,
non-compounded return to investors will be paid to Cole Advisors II (the “Subordinated Incentive
Listing Fee”).
Upon termination of the advisory agreement with Cole Advisors II, other than termination by
the Company because of a material breach of the advisory agreement by Cole Advisors II, a
performance fee of 10% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the appraised asset value at the time of
such termination plus total distributions paid to stockholders through the termination date exceeds
(ii) the aggregate capital contribution contributed by investors less distributions from sale
proceeds plus payment to investors of an 8% annual, cumulative, non-compounded return on capital.
No subordinated performance fee will be paid to the extent that the Company has already paid or
become obligated to pay Cole Advisors II a subordinated participation in net sale proceeds or the
Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, no commissions or fees were incurred for
services provided by Cole Advisors II and its affiliates related to the services described above.
Other
As
of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $955,000 and
$1.5 million, respectively, had
been incurred, primarily for the general and administrative, acquisition, construction management,
property and asset management expenses, by Cole Advisors II and its affiliates, but had not yet
been reimbursed by the Company and were included in due to affiliates on the condensed consolidated
unaudited balance sheet.
