Real Estate Taxes If with respect to any full Tax Year or fraction of a Tax Year falling within the Term, Landlord’s Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises as hereinafter defined for a full Tax Year exceed Base Taxes Allocable to the Premises, or for any such fraction of a Tax Year exceed the corresponding fraction of Base Taxes Allocable to the Premises then, on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt by Tenant of the certified statement referred to below in this Section 2.7, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the amount of such excess. Not later than ninety (90) days after Landlord’s Tax Expenses Allocable to the Premises are determined for the first such Tax Year or fraction thereof and for each succeeding Tax Year or fraction thereof during the Term, Landlord shall render Tenant a statement in reasonable detail certified by a representative of Landlord showing for the preceding year or fraction thereof, as the case may be, real estate taxes on the Building and the Site and abatements and refunds of any taxes and assessments. Expenditures for legal fees and for other expenses incurred in obtaining the tax refund or abatement may be charged against the tax refund or abatement before the adjustments are made for the Tax Year. Said statement to be rendered to Tenant shall also show for the preceding year or fraction thereof as the case may be the amounts of real estate taxes already paid by Tenant as Additional Rent, and the amount of real estate taxes remaining due from, or overpaid by, Tenant for the year or other period covered by the statement. Within thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of the foregoing statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the balance of the amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 2.7 with respect to the preceding year or fraction thereof, or Landlord shall credit any amounts due from it to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.7 against (i) monthly installments of fixed rent next thereafter coming due or (ii) any sums then due from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease (or refund such portion of the over-payment as aforesaid if the Term has ended and Tenant has no further obligation to Landlord). To the extent permitted by applicable law and provided there shall not then be existing an Event of Default, there is a minimum of twelve (12) full calendar months remaining in the Term (as it may have been extended) and Tenant has given prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any of the real estate taxes by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith; provided, however, that as a continuing condition to such right, Tenant shall be required to make those payments respecting real state taxes as and at the times required by law notwithstanding any such contest. Tenant further agrees that each such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted in good faith to a final conclusion except only as provided herein. Landlord agrees to cooperate with Tenant in any such proceeding provided that the same shall be at the sole cost and expense of Tenant. Tenant will pay and save Landlord harmless against any and all losses, judgments, decrees and costs incurred by Landlord (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) relating to the Premises and the Term hereof and being the direct or proximate result of Tenant’s initiation of such contest and will, promptly after the final settlement, compromise or determination of such contest, fully pay and discharge Tenant’s obligations under this Section 2.7, together with all penalties, fines, interests, costs and expenses. Further, any such contest by Tenant shall not be discontinued unless and until Tenant has given to Landlord written notice of Tenant’s intent to so discontinue and if Landlord shall not by notice to Tenant (the “Assumption Notice”) within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice elect to assume, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, the continued prosecution and conduct of such contest. In the event Landlord shall give such Assumption Notice, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in all respects as may be necessary for Landlord’s continuation of such contest, but Tenant shall have no other obligation for the prosecution and conduct of such contest. In addition, payments by Tenant on account of increases in real estate taxes anticipated for the then current year shall be made monthly at the time and in the fashion herein provided for the payment of fixed rent. The amount so to be paid to Landlord shall be an amount reasonably estimated by Landlord to be sufficient to provide Landlord, in the aggregate, a sum equal to Tenant’s share of such increases, at least ten (10) days before the day on which such payments by Landlord would become delinquent. To the extent that real estate taxes shall be payable to the taxing authority in installments with respect to periods less than a Tax Year, the foregoing statement shall be rendered and payments made on account of such installments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no decrease in Landlord’s Tax Expenses with respect to any Tax Year shall result in a reduction of the amount otherwise payable by Tenant if and to the extent said decrease is attributable to vacancies in the Building or partial completion of the Building rather than to any other causes. Terms used herein are defined as follows:

Any lessor under any of the Leases whose consent or agreement is required is identified as such on Schedule 4.16.
Real Estate Investment Trust Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2009, the Company has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code, and its proposed method of operation will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code.

Real Estate Matters (a) Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may order title policy Commitments (the “Commitments”) to be issued by a title company reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (the “Title Company”), accompanied by copies of all recorded documents relating to restrictions, easements, rights-of-way, and other matters affecting the Fee Owned Property or the leased Restaurant locations that are not located in lifestyle centers, office developments, condominium developments or major retail developments (the “Leased Locations”). The Commitments will commit the Title Company to issue at the Closing, ALTA form of Title Insurance Policies to Purchaser, such policies to be in an amount as determined jointly by Purchaser and the Title Company and with such endorsements as are requested by Purchaser. Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may also obtain one of more surveys of the Fee Owned Property and the Leased Locations at Purchaser’s expense (the “Surveys”). Purchaser shall promptly, but not later than forty five (45) days following the date of this Agreement, notify the Seller in writing of objections to the condition of title set forth in the Commitments or on the Surveys which materially affect the merchantability of 1245 Properties’ title or the use of the Fee Owned Property or Seller’s use of the Leased Locations as presently utilized and do not constitute Permitted Liens (the “Title Objections”).
(b) Seller may voluntarily undertake to eliminate any and all of the Title Objections to the satisfaction of Purchaser, but the Seller is under no obligation to do so. If, however, the Seller elects not to, or cannot, eliminate the Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser prior to the Closing Date and the Title Objections constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, within five (5) business days following Seller’s notice that it will not or cannot eliminate such Title Objections, pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof without further liability to Purchaser or Seller. If the Title Objections do not constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser’s obligation to close shall nevertheless remain subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 including Section 8.1(g).
(c) All title matters shown on the Commitments and the Surveys which are not the subject of Title Objections shall be deemed to be Permitted Liens. Further, if Purchaser makes any Title Objections which Seller elects not to, or cannot, cure, and Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, such Title Objections shall likewise be deemed Permitted Liens.
