3.1. Letter of Credit as Security. Subject to the
provisions of this Section 3.1 and Section 16 hereof, Purchaser
shall deliver to Sellers, on or prior to the date hereof (as to

beneficiaries thereunder, for a term of not less than six (6)
months, issued by and drawn on a commercial bank that is a member
of the New York Clearinghouse Association (a "Qualified Bank"),
in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). If the Final
Date (as such term is defined in the Settlement Agreement) does
not occur on or prior to October 23, 1998, then Purchaser shall
have the right to reduce the aforesaid amount of the Letter of
Credit to Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000)
until the fifth (5th) day after the date when Purchaser receives
notice of the occurrence of the Final Date. If (x) Purchaser so

Purchaser fails to increase the amount of the Letter of Credit to
Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) on or prior to the fifth (5th)
day after the date when Purchaser receives notice of the

hereunder. If (x) Purchaser so elects to reduce the amount of
the Letter of Credit hereunder (and has not thereafter increased
the amount of the Letter of Credit to Five Million Dollars

by reason of such default, then Purchaser shall pay to Sellers,
simultaneously with such termination, an amount equal to Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000), which Sellers
shall have the right to retain (in addition to the other amounts
to which Sellers are entitled under Section 14.1 hereof).
Sellers acknowledge that Xxxxxx Affiliate, acting alone, shall
have the right to draw upon the Letter of Credit to the extent
that Sellers have the right to do so under this Agreement, in
which case Xxxxxx Affiliate shall pay to the other Sellers the
proceeds of the Letter of Credit in accordance with the other
Sellers' respective shares therein. If Xxxxxx Affiliate so draws
upon the Letter of Credit, then Xxxxxx Affiliate shall indemnify
the other Sellers, and hold the other Sellers harmless, from and
against any and all liability, damage, loss, cost or expense
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) that are incurred by the other Sellers to the extent
deriving from Xxxxxx Affiliate's drawing upon the Letter of
Credit in violation of this Agreement.
3.2. 550/330 Purchase Price. The purchase price for

the 2 Park Real Estate and Related Interests relating to the
period prior to the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall deliver
within thirty (30) days after the date of such refund and after
deducting therefrom (X) the out-of-pocket costs incurred by

6.3. Governmental Charges. If the Closing Date occurs
before the real property taxes, water rates and charges, or sewer
taxes and rents are finally fixed for the current fiscal year in
respect of the Mamaroneck Property and the 330 Property, then the
apportionments thereof made at the Closing shall be upon the
basis of the tax, water, or sewer rates for the preceding year
applied to the latest assessed valuation, but after the real
property taxes, water rates and charges, or sewer taxes and rents
(as the case may be) are finally fixed for the current fiscal
year, 550/330 Seller and Purchaser shall make a recalculation of
the apportionment thereof, and 550/330 Seller or Purchaser, as
the case may be, shall make an appropriate payment to its
counterparty based on such recalculation. The provisions of this
Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12)
months.

hereunder with respect to the applicable utilities.

Purchaser out of the 550/330 Purchase Price, provided that
official bills therefor are furnished by 550/330 Seller at the
Closing. Purchaser, if request is made at least two (2) business
days prior to the Closing, agrees to provide 550/330 Seller at
the Closing with separate certified and/or official bank checks
drawn on, or by, a Qualified Bank, payable as directed by 550/330

in effect (such an occupant or user, including its successors and
assigns, that occupies space in the Mamaroneck Improvements being
referred to herein as a "Mamaroneck Tenant"; such an occupant or
user, including its successors and assigns, that occupies space
in the 330 Improvements being referred to herein as a "330
Tenant"; the Mamaroneck Tenants and the 330 Tenants being
collectively referred to herein as "550/330 Tenants").
Ba At the end of the current fiscal year with respect
to which escalation rents are payable under any 550/330 Space
Lease, there shall be a calculation of the portion of such
escalation rents to which 550/330 Seller is entitled, which
portion shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of days in said fiscal year with respect to each such
550/330 Space Lease which elapsed prior to the Closing Date and
the denominator of which is the total number of days in said
fiscal year during which each such 550/330 Space Lease was in
effect, and Purchaser shall be entitled to the remaining portion
of such escalation rents. If 550/330 Seller has received
escalation rents with respect to any 550/330 Space Lease for said
fiscal year in excess of the amount to which it is entitled
pursuant hereto, then such excess shall be paid by 550/330 Seller
to Purchaser within ten (10) business days after such
calculation. If Purchaser has received escalation rents with
respect to any 550/330 Space Lease for said fiscal year in excess
of the amount to which it is entitled pursuant hereto, then such
excess shall be paid by Purchaser to 550/330 Seller within ten
(10) business days after the later of (a) Purchaser's receipt of
such excess of escalation rents, and (b) the date of such
calculation.

collections with respect to the 550/330 Property shall be applied
in the following order (notwithstanding any designation by the
remitting Tenant): (i) first to the calendar month during which
the Closing Date occurs, (ii) then to any calendar month or
months following the calendar month in which the Closing Date
occurs, and (iii) finally to any arrears for the period before
the calendar month during which the Closing Date occurs. All
such unpaid rents and other charges collected from the 550/330
Tenants shall be remitted promptly to 550/330 Seller when
collected (to the extent that 550/330 Seller has the right
thereto). Nothing contained herein shall be construed to
prohibit 550/330 Seller from bringing or pursuing an action for
money damages (but 550/330 Seller may not xxx to terminate the
applicable 550/330 Space Lease or evict the applicable 550/330
Tenant) against any 550/330 Tenant after the Closing by reason of
such 550/330 Tenant's failure to pay rent for any period prior to
the Closing Date (with the understanding that 550/330 Seller
shall apply any funds collected by reason of any such action in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8(C)).
Da The provisions of this Section 6.8 shall survive

rights, duties or obligations hereunder with respect to the 330
Property (except that the parties' obligations under Section 10
and Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said termination), and (ii)
said termination shall not affect Seller's or Purchaser's
obligations hereunder with respect to the 2 Park Interest or the

obligations hereunder (except that the parties' respective
obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall
survive said termination).

prior to July 30, 1999 by giving notice thereof to Sellers not
later than August 15, 1999, except that Sellers shall have the
right to declare Purchaser's aforesaid termination ineffective if
(x) Sellers are then ready, willing and able to consummate the
transaction contemplated hereby, and (y) the Final Date occurs
within fifteen (15) days after the date when Purchaser gives such
notice to Sellers. If Purchaser elects to terminate this
Agreement as aforesaid (and Sellers do not declare such
termination ineffective, as aforesaid), then Sellers promptly
shall return the Letter of Credit (or the proceeds thereof, if
theretofore presented for payment) to Purchaser and, thereupon,
no party shall have any continuing rights, duties, or obligations
hereunder with respect to either the 550/330 Property or the 2
Park Interests (except that the parties' obligations under
Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said

Seller of the disposition, if any, of such 550/330 Security

as a 550/330 Security Deposit either to be (x) reissued in favor
of Purchaser as of the Closing Date, or (y) otherwise amended or
endorsed so as to render Purchaser the beneficiary of such letter
of credit as of the Closing Date. Until any such letter of
credit has been reissued, amended, or endorsed in favor of
Purchaser, 550/330 Seller shall reasonably cooperate with
Purchaser in effecting a draw of the letter of credit if
Purchaser is entitled thereto in accordance with the terms of the
applicable 550/330 Space Lease. Purchaser shall indemnify
550/330 Seller and hold 550/330 Seller harmless from and against
any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses

8.5. Designation of Defects.
A. Purchaser, on or prior to the fifteenth (15th)
business day after the date when Purchaser receives the Title
Commitments from the Title Company or the UCC Search from the
search company, as the case may be, or, in either case, any
update thereof, shall give 550/330 Seller a copy of the Title
Commitments or the UCC Search, or such update, as the case may
be, together with a notice of Purchaser's objections (if any) to
(a) any easements, liens and other similar items that the Title

(other than the Mamaroneck Permitted Exceptions), or (y) the 330
Property (other than the 330 Permitted Exceptions), and (b) any
liens, security interests and other similar items that are
disclosed on the UCC Search (or such update) (other than the
Mamaroneck Permitted Exceptions and 330 Permitted Exceptions).
B. If Purchaser orders a Current Survey, then
Purchaser, on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) business day after
the date when Purchaser receives such Current Survey, shall give
550/330 Seller a copy thereof, together with a notice of
Purchaser's objections to any matters disclosed thereon (and not
theretofore disclosed in the respective Title Commitments or the
UCC Search) which do not otherwise constitute either Mamaroneck
Permitted Exceptions or 330 Permitted Exceptions (any items
identified in the respective Title Commitments or the UCC Search
(or an update thereof), or the Current Survey, to which, in each
case, Purchaser objects as provided in Section 8.5(A) hereof or
in this Section 8.5(B), being referred to herein as a "Defect").
Purchaser's right to designate Defects disclosed on a Current
Survey is conditioned upon Purchaser (i) ordering the Current
Survey from a reputable surveyor within ten (10) business days of
the date hereof, and (ii) instructing said surveyor to proceed
with due diligence.
C. If Purchaser does not identify a title exception
or a survey defect as a Defect in accordance with this Section
8.5, then such title exception or survey defect shall constitute
either a Mamaroneck Permitted Exception, if it concerns the
Mamaroneck Property, or a 330 Permitted Exception, if it concerns
the 330 Property, for purposes hereof.
D. Except as expressly provided in this Section 8,
550/330 Seller is under no obligation to remove any Defect.
550/330 Seller shall have the right to adjourn the Closing from
time to time for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed sixty
(60) days in the aggregate) to clear Defects. If (i) a Defect is
not of the type specified in Section 8.5(G) hereof, and (ii)
550/330 Seller is unable to clear such Defect or elects not to do
so, as a result of which 550/330 Seller is unable to convey title
to either the Mamaroneck Property or the 330 Property in
accordance with the provisions hereof, then 550/330 Seller shall
so notify Purchaser.
E. If (i) a notice given by Purchaser designating
Defects concerns the Mamaroneck Property, and (ii) the reasonable
cost of clearing such Defects (the "Mamaroneck Title Cost")
exceeds the Available Mamaroneck Materiality Amount, then
Purchaser, within ten (10) business days following receipt
thereof, shall either (x) elect to terminate this Agreement (I)
with respect to the Mamaroneck Property only, or (II) in its
entirety, in either case by notice given to 550/330 Seller, or
(y) elect to accept title to the Mamaroneck Property subject to
such Defects, in which case the parties shall consummate the
transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with the provisions
hereof, except that Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit
against the 550/330 Purchase Price in an amount equal to the
lesser of (i) the excess of the Mamaroneck Title Cost over the
Available Mamaroneck Materiality Amount, and (ii) Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000). If (i) a notice given by
Purchaser designating Defects concerns the Mamaroneck Property,
and (ii) the Mamaroneck Title Cost does not exceed the Available
Mamaroneck Materiality Amount, then the parties shall consummate
the transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with the
provisions hereof, without Purchaser being entitled to any credit
against the 550/330 Purchase Price. If Purchaser does not make
such election within such ten (10) business day period, then
Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected clause (y) above with
the same force and effect as if Purchaser had elected clause (y)
within such ten (10) business day period. If this Agreement is
terminated with respect to the Mamaroneck Property only, as
aforesaid, then (i) no party shall have thereafter any continuing
rights, duties or obligations hereunder with respect to the
Mamaroneck Property (except that the parties' obligations under
Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said
termination), and (ii) said termination shall not affect Seller's
or Purchaser's obligations hereunder with respect to the 2 Park
Interests or the 330 Property nor entitle Purchaser to the return
of the Letter of Credit as a result thereof. If this Agreement
is terminated in its entirety, as aforesaid, then Purchaser shall
be entitled to the return of the Letter of Credit, and thereupon,
no party shall have thereafter any continuing rights, duties or
obligations hereunder (except that the parties' respective
obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall
survive said termination).
F. If (i) a notice given by Purchaser designating
Defects concerns the 330 Property, and (ii) the reasonable cost
of clearing such Defects (the "330 Title Cost") exceeds the
Available 330 Materiality Amount, then Purchaser, within ten (10)
business days following receipt thereof, shall either (x) elect
to terminate this Agreement (I) with respect to the 330 Property
only, or (II) in its entirety, in either case by notice given to
550/330 Seller, or (y) elect to accept title to the 330 Property
subject to such Defects, in which case the parties shall
consummate the transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with
the provisions hereof, except that Purchaser shall be entitled to
a credit against the 550/330 Purchase Price in an amount equal to
the lesser of (i) the excess of the 330 Title Cost over the
Available 330 Materiality Amount, and (ii) Two Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($250,000). If (i) a notice given by Purchaser
designating Defects concerns the 330 Property, and (ii) the 330
Title Cost does not exceed the Available 330 Materiality Amount,
then the parties shall consummate the transaction contemplated
hereby in accordance with the provisions hereof, without
Purchaser being entitled to any credit against the 550/330
Purchase Price. If Purchaser does not make such election within
such ten (10) business day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to
have elected clause (y) above with the same force and effect as
if Purchaser had elected clause (y) within such ten (10) business
day period. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to the
330 Property only, as aforesaid, then (i) no party shall have
thereafter any continuing rights, duties or obligations hereunder
with respect to the 330 Property (except that the parties'
obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall
survive said termination), and (ii) said termination shall not
affect Seller's or Purchaser's obligations hereunder with respect
to the 2 Park Interest or the Mamaroneck Property nor entitle the
Purchaser to the return of the Letter of Credit as a result
thereof. If this Agreement is terminated in its entirety, as
aforesaid, then Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the
Letter of Credit, and thereupon, no party shall have thereafter
any continuing rights, duties or obligations hereunder (except
that the parties' respective obligations under Section 10 and
Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said termination).
G. Except as provided in Section 8.7 hereof, if, as
of the Closing Date, the Mamaroneck Property or the 330 Property
is subject to any Defect that constitutes (i) a mechanic's lien
or a materialman's lien which, in either case, do not derive from
work performed by or on behalf of, or materials supplied to, any
550/330 Tenant, (ii) a mortgage made by 550/330 Seller, (iii) a
security interest granted by 550/330 Seller, (iv) a judgment lien
against 550/330 Seller, or (v) an execution lien against 550/330
Seller, which either individually or when aggregated with other
items of the nature described in this Section 8.5(G) are in a
liquidated amount equal to or less than the 550/330 Purchase
Price, then, subject to Section 8.6 hereof, 550/330 Seller shall
cause such Defects to be removed and discharged of record on or
before the Closing Date.
8.6. Removal of Defects.
A. 550/330 Seller, in lieu of satisfying any liens or
encumbrances affecting the 550/330 Property, may (but, subject to
Section 8.5(G) hereof, shall be under no obligation to) either
(x) direct Purchaser to apply a portion of the 550/330 Purchase
Price to the satisfaction of such liens and encumbrances
affecting either the Mamaroneck Property and/or the 330 Property,
as appropriate, provided that 550/330 Seller, at the Closing,
delivers to Purchaser or the Title Company instruments in
recordable form and sufficient to satisfy of record such liens
and encumbrances, together with the cost of recording or filing
such instruments, or (y) if such lien or encumbrance is for an
amount less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), deliver to the
Title Company such security or other documents sufficient to
induce the Title Company to insure Purchaser against collection
of such liens and/or encumbrances, including interest and
penalties, against either the Mamaroneck Property or the 330
Property affected by the aforesaid Defect, in which event such
liens and encumbrances shall not be objections to title.
B. Purchaser shall provide 550/330 Seller, at the
Closing, with separate certified and/or official checks drawn on,
or by, a Qualified Bank, payable as directed by 550/330 Seller,
in an aggregate amount not to exceed the 550/330 Purchase Price
as contemplated by Section 8.6(A) hereof to facilitate the
satisfaction of any such liens or encumbrances, provided that
550/330 Seller gives notice thereof to Purchaser on or prior to
the second (2nd) business day before the Closing Date.
8.7. Assignment of Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage.
A. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.7,
Purchaser may elect up to twenty (20) days prior to the Closing
Date to require 550/330 Seller to request that the holder of the
mortgage that constitutes a first lien on 550/330 Seller's
interests in the Mamaroneck Property as of the date hereof, as
described on Exhibit "S" attached hereto and made a part hereof,
assign such mortgage, together with the note secured thereby, at
the Closing to a mortgagee designated by Purchaser (such mortgage
being referred to herein as the "Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage";
such holder of the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage being referred to
herein as the "Existing Mamaroneck Mortgagee"). 550/330 Seller
shall have no obligation to consummate any such assignment of the
Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage and the note secured thereby unless,
at the Closing, and prior to the consummation of such assignment,
the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgagee releases 550/330 Seller (and
any other person or entity related to or affiliated with 550/330
Seller) from any personal liability in connection with the
Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage and the note secured thereby, and
any of the other documents executed in connection therewith.
B. If the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgagee assigns the
Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage and the note secured thereby to
Purchaser's designee as contemplated by this Section 8.7, then
(a) the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage shall constitute a
Mamaroneck Permitted Exception for purposes hereof, (b) Purchaser
shall pay in advance the costs imposed by the Existing Mamaroneck
Mortgagee (or the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgagee's counsel) in
connection with the assignment of the Existing Mamaroneck
Mortgage and the note secured thereby, and (c) Purchaser, at the
Closing, shall direct Purchaser's lender to pay to the Existing
Mamaroneck Mortgagee the aggregate amount then due and owing to
the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgagee in respect of the loan secured
by the Existing Mamaroneck Mortgage (it being understood that
such aggregate amount paid by Purchaser's lender to the Existing
Mamaroneck Mortgagee shall (i) constitute a credit against the
550/330 Purchase Price due to 550/330 Seller at the Closing, and
(ii) not exceed the 550/330 Purchase Price due to 550/330 Seller
at the Closing).
8.8. 550/330 Violations.
A. All violations of law or municipal ordinances,
orders or requirements noted in or issued by the department of
buildings, fire, labor, health or other federal, state, county,

and/or the 330 Real Estate and any outstanding work orders and
requirements of the insurance company presently insuring the
Mamaroneck Property and/or the 330 Property under the 550/330

Price (such violations, work orders and requirements being
collectively referred to herein as "Violations").
B. Notwithstanding Section 8.8(A) hereof, if, with
respect to the Mamaroneck Property, the reasonable cost (the
"Mamaroneck Violations Cost") of complying with the Violations
that first arise of record during the period (a) commencing on
the earlier to occur of (X) the sixtieth (60th) day after the
date when the court enters an order approving the consummation of
the transaction contemplated hereby and by the Settlement
Agreement, and (Y) the ninetieth (90th) day after the date
hereof, and (b) ending on the day immediately preceding the

either (i) performs the work required to clear any such
Violations, or (ii) grants to Purchaser a credit against the
550/330 Purchase Price at the Closing in an amount equal to the
excess of the Mamaroneck Violations Cost over Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($200,000)). If this Agreement is terminated

Credit as a result thereof. If this Agreement is terminated in
its entirety, as aforesaid, then Purchaser shall be entitled to
the return of the Letter of Credit, and thereupon, no party shall
have thereafter any continuing rights, duties or obligations
hereunder (except that the parties' respective obligations under
Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said
termination). Purchaser is hereby authorized to make the
necessary Violation searches for the Mamaroneck Property and,
upon request, 550/330 Seller shall furnish Purchaser with such
further authorization to make additional Violation searches for
the Mamaroneck Property as may be necessary.
C. Notwithstanding Section 8.8(A) hereof, if, with
respect to the 330 Property, the reasonable cost (the "330
Violations Cost") of complying with the Violations that first
arise of record during the period (a) commencing on the earlier
of (X) the sixtieth (60th) day after the date when the court

terminate this Agreement (I) with respect to the 330 Property
only, or (II) in its entirety, in either case by giving notice
thereof to Sellers at or prior to the Closing (unless Seller, at
Seller's option, either (i) performs the work required to clear
any such Violations, or (ii) grants to Purchaser a credit against
the 550/330 Purchase Price at the Closing in an amount equal to
the excess of the 330 Violations Cost over Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($200,000)). If this Agreement is terminated with
respect to the 330 Property, as aforesaid, then (i) no party
shall have thereafter any continuing rights, duties or
obligations hereunder with respect to the 330 Property (except
that the parties' obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9
hereof shall survive said termination), and (ii) said termination
shall not affect Seller's or Purchaser's obligations hereunder
with respect to the 2 Park Interest or the Mamaroneck Property
nor entitle the Purchaser to the return of the Letter of Credit
as a result thereof. If this Agreement is terminated in its
entirety, as aforesaid, then Purchaser shall be entitled to the
return of the Letter of Credit, and thereupon, no party shall
have thereafter any continuing rights, duties or obligations
hereunder (except that the parties' respective obligations under
Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall survive said
termination). Purchaser is hereby authorized to make the
necessary Violation searches for the 330 Property and, upon

if any, specified in the 550/330 Insurance Policy, or (ii) the
excess of the cost necessary to cover such damage or destruction
over the 550/330 Proceeds available therefor. 550/330 Seller
shall maintain in force and effect until the Closing Date the
existing all-risk casualty insurance policies on the Mamaroneck
Improvements, as described in Exhibit "EE-1" attached hereto and
made a part hereof, and on the 330 Improvements, as described in
Exhibit "EE-2" attached hereto and made a part hereof (the
"550/330 Insurance Policies").
D. For purposes hereof, a "Material Casualty" is
deemed to have occurred if (i) with respect to the Mamaroneck
Property, a fire or other casualty damages or destroys a portion
of the Mamaroneck Improvements which has an estimated value
exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Mamaroneck Purchase Price, or
(ii) with respect to the 330 Property, a fire or other casualty
damages or destroys a portion of the 330 Improvements which has
an estimated value exceeding ten percent (10%) of the 330
Purchase Price.
11.3. Rejection of Uniform Act. Purchaser and
550/330 Seller hereby agree that the provisions of Section 5-1311
of the General Obligations Law shall have no effect with respect
to the Mamaroneck Property, the 330 Property, or this Agreement,
it being agreed that Purchaser's and 550/330 Seller's sole and
exclusive rights and obligations in the event of any casualty to
the Mamaroneck Property or 330 Property or any taking of all or
any part thereof are contained in this Section 11.
12. Operation during the Contract Period.
12.1. 550/330 Space Leases.
A. Subject to Section 11 hereof, 550/330 Seller,
during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the
Closing Date (the "Contract Period"), shall keep and maintain the
Mamaroneck Office Property and the 330 Office Property in the
manner presently maintained and operated by 550/330 Seller
(excepting only ordinary wear and tear and natural deterioration
and any maintenance which Mamaroneck Tenants and 330 Tenants are
obligated to provide). 550/330 Seller shall not (i) enter into
leases or other occupancy agreements with Mamaroneck Tenants, 330
Tenants, or any other person or entity for space in the
Mamaroneck Improvements or 330 Improvements, or (ii) terminate
any Mamaroneck Space Lease or 330 Space Lease, or (iii) amend,
modify, renew, or extend any Mamaroneck Space Lease or 330 Space
Lease (any action of the nature described in clauses (i), (ii),
and (iii) above being collectively referred to herein as the "New
Space Lease Actions"), other than, in each case, with the consent
of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however,
that (a) if Purchaser fails to object to any New Space Lease
Action within ten (10) days after 550/330 Seller gives Purchaser
notice thereof, then Purchaser is deemed to have consented to
such New Space Lease Action, and (b) 550/330 Seller may terminate
any Mamaroneck Space Lease or 330 Space Lease during the Contract
Period by reason of the Tenant's material default thereunder
(beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period) without
Purchaser's prior consent.
B. Purchaser shall pay to 550/330 Seller at the
Closing, in addition to the 550/330 Purchase Price and the other
amounts then due to 550/330 Seller hereunder, an amount equal to
the costs incurred by 550/330 Seller in connection with any New
Space Lease Actions to which Purchaser consents or is deemed to
have consented as contemplated by this Section 12.1 (including,
without limitation, brokerage commissions, legal fees, takeover
expenses, the costs of work performed by or on behalf of 550/330
Seller in the Mamaroneck Office Property or the 330 Office
Property and work allowances incurred in connection with such New
Space Lease Actions); provided, however, that such payment to be
made by Purchaser to 550/330 Seller at the Closing shall be
reduced to the extent that as of the Closing Date such costs have
been amortized, in equal monthly installments, over the period of
time during which rent is payable by the applicable Mamaroneck
Tenant or 330 Tenant in connection with the applicable New Space
Lease Action. Purchaser, during the Contract Period, shall not
contact, speak to, or commence any negotiations or discussions
with any Tenant, prospective Tenant, or the lessors under the
Mamaroneck Ground Leases or 330 Ground Lease without, in each
case, the prior consent of 550/330 Seller, not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Nothing contained in this
Section 12.1 abrogates Purchaser's obligation to accept the
Mamaroneck Property and the 330 Property in the condition
described in Section 9.2 hereof. The amount paid by Purchaser
under this Section 12.1(B) shall not also be included in the
apportionments described in Section 6.13 hereof.
C. 550/330 Seller, during the Contract Period, (i)
shall perform all of its material obligations as lessor under
each 550/330 Space Lease, provided that the applicable 550/330
Tenant thereunder is not in default, (ii) shall enforce all of
the material obligations of each 550/330 Tenant under each
550/330 Space Lease, and (iii) shall not apply all or any part of
the security deposited by any 550/330 Tenant under a 550/330
Space Lease unless such 550/330 Tenant has vacated the space
leased to it thereunder and 550/330 Seller has terminated such
550/330 Space Lease.
12.2. Ground Leases. 550/330 Seller, during the
Contract Period, shall not terminate, amend, modify, renew, or
extend the Mamaroneck Ground Leases or the 330 Ground Lease,
other than, in each case, with the consent of Purchaser, not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
12.3. 550/330 Third-Party Contracts. 550/330
Seller, during the Contract Period, may enter into Mamaroneck
Third-Party Contracts and 330 Third-Party Contracts to the extent
reasonably necessary for the operation of the Mamaroneck Property
and 330 Property during the Contract Period, provided that each
such Mamaroneck Third-Party Contract and 330 Third-Party Contract
is terminable by 550/330 Seller without penalty or premium on not
more than thirty (30) days' prior notice to the counterparty
thereunder (it being understood, however, that 550/330 Seller,
during the Contract Period, may enter into Mamaroneck Third-Party
Contracts and 330 Third-Party Contracts that constitute brokerage
agreements in connection with New Space Lease Actions to which
Purchaser consents or is deemed to have consented under Section
12.1 hereof without such brokerage agreements being terminable on
thirty (30) days' prior notice).
12.4. 550/330 Personal Property. 550/330 Seller,
during the Contract Period, (i) shall not remove either (x) from
the Mamaroneck Property any item of Mamaroneck Personal Property
included in the sale, or (y) from the 330 Property any item of
330 Personal Property included in the sale, unless such item, in
each case, is replaced with a similar item of comparable utility
and value, and (ii) shall, if required and upon request of
Purchaser, promptly furnish to Purchaser written authorization to
make any necessary search for the purposes of determining whether
notes or notices of Violations have been noted or issued with
respect to the Personal Property or liens have attached thereto.
12.5. 550/330 Contract Rights. 550/330 Seller,
during the Contract Period, (i) shall exercise all rights and
comply with all obligations under the Mamaroneck Contract Rights
and the 330 Contract Rights in substantially the same manner as
it generally did prior to the date hereof, and (ii) shall not
amend or modify any permits with respect to the Mamaroneck Office
Property or the 330 Office Property, except to comply with
applicable law or insurance requirements.
12.6. 550/330 Tax Assessment Proceedings. 550/330
Seller, during the Contract Period, shall not withdraw, settle,
or otherwise compromise any protest or reduction proceeding
affecting real estate taxes assessed against the 550/330 Real
Estate for any fiscal period in which the Closing Date is to
occur or any subsequent fiscal period without the consent of
Purchaser.
12.7. 2 Park Partnership. Each of the 2 Park
Sellers, during the Contract Period, shall exercise all of its
rights and comply with all of its obligations as a partner of the
Partnership so as to cause the Partnership to manage the 2 Park
Partnership in substantially the same manner as the Partnership
generally did prior to the date hereof.
13. Notices.
A. All notices, demands, requests or other
communications (collectively, "Notices") made pursuant to, under
or by virtue of this Agreement shall be in writing and sent to
the party or parties to whom or to which the Notice is being
sent, by (x) certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, or (y) hand delivery with receipt acknowledged in

B. All Notices are deemed given (x) three (3)
business days after the date when such Notice is sent, if such
Notice is sent by certified or registered mail, or (y) when

business day, if such Notice is given by overnight delivery
service. Any party may change its address for purposes hereof by
giving a Notice to the other parties in accordance with this
Section 13.
14. Defaults.
14.1. Purchaser's Default. Subject to the terms of
this Section 14.1, if Purchaser either (x) defaults in respect of
its obligations to Sellers hereunder, or (y) has made a material
misrepresentation to Sellers hereunder, then Sellers, as their
sole remedy, may elect, at their option, either to (i) terminate
this Agreement by notice to Purchaser, or (ii) waive such
default(s) or misrepresentation(s) and proceed to the Closing.
If this Agreement is terminated as aforesaid, then Sellers may
(A) present the Letter of Credit for payment (if the Letter of
Credit has not previously been presented for payment in
accordance with Section 16 hereof) and retain the proceeds
thereof, or (B) retain the proceeds of the Letter of Credit (if
the Letter of Credit has been previously presented for payment in
accordance with Section 16 hereof), as the case may be, and
thereupon, subject to the terms of this Section 14.1, no party
shall have any continuing rights, duties or obligations hereunder
with respect to either the 550/330 Property, the Partnership, or
the 2 Park Interests; provided, however, that the parties'
obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9 hereof shall
survive said termination. Subject to the other provisions of
this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 14.1 shall not
limit Sellers' rights against Purchaser after the Closing in
respect of any obligation or liability of Purchaser hereunder
that survives the Closing. Nothing contained in this Section
14.1 limits Purchaser's personal liability for Purchaser's
failure (x) to deposit the Letter of Credit with Seller on or
prior to the date hereof pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, or (y)
to make a payment to Sellers in the amount of Two Million Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) pursuant to Section 3.1
hereof as and to the extent due thereunder.
14.2. Sellers' Default. If any Seller defaults in
any material respect hereunder, then Purchaser, as its sole
remedy, may, at its option, either (x) terminate this Agreement,
or (y) bring an action against such defaulting Seller to seek
specific performance of such defaulting Seller's obligations
hereunder to cure such default and to consummate the transaction
contemplated hereby. If any Seller makes a material
misrepresentation to Purchaser hereunder, then Purchaser, as its
sole remedy, may, at its option, terminate this Agreement. If
Purchaser exercises its rights to terminate this Agreement as
aforesaid, then Sellers promptly shall return the Letter of
Credit (or the proceeds thereof, if theretofore presented for
payment) to Purchaser, and thereupon, no party shall have any
continuing rights, duties, or obligations hereunder with respect
to either the 550/330 Property or the 2 Park Interests (except
that the parties' obligations under Section 10 and Section 15.9
hereof shall survive said termination); provided, however, that
if Purchaser exercises its right to terminate this Agreement as a
result of either (x) any Seller's intentional misrepresentation,
or (y) any Seller's fraud, then such Seller shall promptly pay to
Purchaser an amount equal to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred by Purchaser in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (it being understood that (I) such
amount shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000),
and (II) Seller shall be deemed to have made an intentional
misrepresentation for purposes of determining whether Purchaser
is entitled to such reimbursement for such out-of-pocket costs
and expenses if Seller (A) as of the date hereof, has actual
current knowledge that any of the statements set forth in Section
9.3 are untrue in any material respect as of the date hereof, and
(B) has heretofore intentionally failed to advise Purchaser
thereof). Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the
provisions of this Section 14.2 shall not limit Purchaser's
rights against Sellers after the Closing in respect of any
obligation or liability of Sellers hereunder that survives the
Closing.
14.3. Limitation of Liability with Respect to
Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx. Purchaser shall look solely to the 2 Park
Interests owned by Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, as well as the net proceeds
from the sale of thereof pursuant to this Agreement, and not to
any other assets of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx to enforce its rights
against Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx hereunder.
15. Additional Provisions.
15.1. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains
all of the terms agreed upon between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof, and all understandings and agreements
heretofore had or made between the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof are merged in this Agreement which
alone fully and completely expresses the agreement of said
parties.
15.2. Amendments. This Agreement may not be
changed, modified, supplemented or terminated, nor may any
obligations hereunder be waived, except by an instrument executed
by the party hereto against whom enforcement thereof is sought.
15.3. Waiver. No waiver by any party hereto of any
failure or refusal by any other party to comply with its
obligations hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or
subsequent failure or refusal to so comply.
15.4. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the
provisions of Section 15.7 hereof, the covenants, agreements,
representations, stipulations, and warranties herein contained
shall inure to the benefit of, and shall bind, the successors and
assigns of the respective parties hereto.
15.5. Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision
of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or
circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable,
then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such
term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as
to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be
affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement
shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by
law.
15.6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to
agreements made and to be performed wholly within said State.
15.7. Assignment. Purchaser shall not assign
Purchaser's interest in this Agreement without the joint prior
written consent of 550/330 Seller and 2 Park Sellers, except that
Purchaser shall have the right to assign all or a portion of
Purchaser's interest in this Agreement to one or more entities
that are 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser. In
addition, without impairing any of Purchaser's obligations
hereunder, Seller, at the Closing, shall convey any of the
550/330 Property and the 2 Park Interests to one or more entities
that are 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser,
provided that Purchaser gives notice thereof to Sellers not later
than the fifth (5th) business day before the Closing.
15.8. Paragraph Headings. The headings of the
various paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted solely
for the purposes of convenience, are not part of this Agreement
and shall not be deemed in any manner to modify, explain, expand
or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement.
15.9. No Recording or Notice of Pendency.
Purchaser shall not record this Agreement or any memorandum or
notice thereof nor shall Purchaser file any notice of pendency or
other instrument against the 550/330 Property or the 2 Park
Interests. The provisions of this Section 15.9 shall survive any
termination of this Agreement.
15.10. Further Assurances. 550/330 Seller, 2 Park
Sellers, and Purchaser, from and after the Closing Date, shall
take such reasonable actions from time to time as are reasonably
necessary to implement the provisions hereof (it being
understood, however, that the provisions of this Section 15.10
shall not expand either party's substantive rights or obligations
beyond the express provisions hereof). The provisions of this
Section 15.10 shall survive the Closing Date.
15.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
in counterparts, it being understood that all such counterparts,
taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.
16. Letter of Credit. If the Closing has not
theretofore occurred and this Agreement has not been theretofore
terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, then Purchaser shall
renew the Letter of Credit, from time to time, at least thirty
(30) days prior to the expiration thereof, and deliver to Sellers
a new Letter of Credit, or an endorsement to the then existing
Letter of Credit, and any other evidence reasonably required by
Sellers, to the effect that the then existing Letter of Credit
has been renewed for a period of at least six (6) months. If
Purchaser fails to renew the Letter of Credit as aforesaid, then
Sellers may present the Letter of Credit for payment prior to its
expiration and hold and apply the proceeds thereof in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. If the Closing occurs, then,
at the Closing, Sellers shall deliver the Letter of Credit (or
the proceeds thereof, as the case may be) to Purchaser.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Sellers and Purchaser have duly
executed and delivered this Sale-Purchase Agreement on the date
first above written.
