The Loan was originally made by Deutsche Banc Mortgage Capital, L.L.C.

As a condition precedent to the parties’ obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 10, Buyer shall have obtained prior to Closing, approval from the Existing Lender to the following (collectively, the “Lender Approval”): (i), the transfer of the Property to Buyer contemplated by this Agreement on terms materially consistent with the Loan Documents, (ii) any changes to the prohibited transfer provisions in the Loan Documents necessary in Buyer’s sole discretion in order to permit the “umbrella partnership” REIT structure of Buyer, (iii) the change in the property management of the Property to ATA Property Management, LLC (“the Property Manager), and (iv) the substitution of guarantors which may be required by the Lender or the Loan Documents in connection therewith. The “Lender Approval” shall be deemed to include (a) the satisfactory completion by the Existing Lender of all diligence investigations, inspections and tests it may require to grant such approval, and (b) the full negotiation and final approval for signature of the Lender Approval Documents (as defined below) by Buyer, Seller (if required), the Existing Lender and, if applicable, the guarantors under the Loan Documents and any other entities required by the Existing Lender to be a party to the Lender Approval Documents. Within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, Buyer will apply (and Seller shall join in the application if required) to the Existing Lender for the Lender Approval, and shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Lender Approval prior to the Closing Date, provided, however, that as long as Buyer has used its commercially reasonable efforts as required hereby, in no event shall Buyer have any liability for its failure to obtain the Lender Approval except where such failure is due to any misrepresentation made by Buyer to Existing Lender in connection with obtaining the Lender Approval. The parties hereto agree to cooperate with and to take all reasonable action to facilitate the receipt of the Lender Approval, however, Buyer shall be solely responsible to pay to the Lender any and all assumption fees and all other costs, fees or expenses (other than Seller’s legal fees) in connection with attempting to obtain the Lender Approval (collectively, the “Loan Assumption Related Fees”). Buyer and Seller shall execute and deliver at Closing, such consent and approval documents and agreements required by Lender in connection with the Lender Approval, in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Seller (the “Lender Approval Documents”). In connection with such approval, the parties shall diligently, promptly and in good faith attempt to obtain such approval and both parties will supply the information reasonably requested by Existing Lender with respect to such
3 - AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE AND SALE
approval. Seller and Buyer both covenant and agree to fully cooperate and endeavor to obtain the Lender Approval, and shall not do anything (or fail to do anything) which could adversely affect the parties’ ability to obtain promptly the Lender Approval.
2.2.1. Cash Portion of Purchase Price. On or before the Title Review Completion Date (hereafter defined), Buyer shall deposit with a bank, financial advisor or broker selected by Buyer (which may include a qualified intermediary for like-kind exchange purposes) (the “Equity Escrow Holder”) an amount equal to the Purchase Price less the then outstanding balance of the Loan and less the Deposit (the “Escrowed Equity”). The Equity Escrow Holder shall invest the Escrowed Equity in REIT-compliant investments in a manner directed by Buyer, and all earnings on the Escrowed Equity shall belong to Buyer and may be distributed to Buyer periodically as Buyer may direct.
2.3. At least one (1) business day prior to Closing, Buyer shall direct the Equity Escrow Holder to wire to the Title Company from the Escrowed Equity an amount equal to the Purchase Price less the Deposit, less the outstanding balance of the Loan and plus or minus the adjustments, credits (including the credits contemplated by Section 2.4.3), and prorations required by this Agreement. The cash amount necessary to pay the balance of the Purchase Price (the “Cash Portion of the Purchase Price”) shall be paid by the Title Company to Seller out of the Deposit and the portion of the Escrowed Equity wired to the Title Company by the Equity Escrow Holder. If for any reason the total of the Deposit and the portion of the Escrowed Equity wired to the Title Company is less than the Cash Portion of the Purchase Price, Buyer shall wire to the Title Company prior to Closing the amount of the deficiency. If the total of the Deposit and the Escrowed Equity is more than the Cash Portion of the Purchase Price, the party holding the excess (i.e. the Title Company and/or the Equity Escrow Holder) shall wire the excess to Buyer or its designee (or back to its qualified intermediary) at or after Closing.
2.4. OP Units
2.4.1. As more particularly described herein, the Buyer shall have the right to exchange beneficial interests in Seller at the time of Closing by means of issuing OP Units (hereafter defined). The Buyer expects to issue OP Units only to holders of beneficial interests in Seller (“Beneficial Owners”) who (a) qualify as “accredited investors” within the meaning set forth in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (b) have received the Investor Package (as defined below), and (c) deliver the OP Issuance Delivery Documents (as defined below) to Buyer at least five (5) business days prior to Closing (such beneficial owners who satisfy the foregoing requirements are referred to herein individually as an “Eligible Beneficial Owner” and collectively as the “Eligible Beneficial Owners”). The term “OP Units” shall mean units of limited partnership interests in Buyer with the rights and preferences as set forth in Buyer’s Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, dated as of December 27, 2005, as amended on June 3, 2010, June 28, 2011, and August 3, 2012, and as the same may be further amended from time to time, a copy of which is filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Buyer understands and agrees that Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property is in no way conditioned upon any Eligible Beneficial Owners accepting the Buyer’s offer of OP Units, and that the Buyer’s offering of the
4 - AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE AND SALE
OP Units may not in any way delay the Closing contemplated in this Agreement. Buyer further agrees and acknowledges that the offering of OP Units is being undertaken solely by the Buyer and that the Seller will not encourage nor participate in the offering of OP Units.
2.4.2 Seller hereby consents to Buyer contacting the Beneficial Owners regarding the OP Units after the Effective Date, and Seller agrees to (i) provide to Buyer on the Effective Date the current list of names and addresses of the Beneficial Owners used in the ordinary course of Seller’s business; and (ii) send to each of the Beneficial Owners an email or other appropriate correspondence informing the Beneficial Owners that they may be contacted by Buyer regarding their ability to acquire OP Units at the time of Closing. Seller agrees to advise Buyer as to the percentage ownership interest that each Eligible Beneficial Owner receiving OP Units owns in Seller, to Seller’s actual knowledge, at least three (3) business days prior to Closing.
2.4.3 In the event that some Eligible Beneficial Owners elect to receive OP Units (such Eligible Beneficial Owners being referred to herein as “Participating Beneficial Owners”), the Buyer shall be entitled to receive a credit on the Closing Statement (as hereinafter defined) in an amount equal to the portion of net sales proceeds attributable to the beneficial interests in the Seller that Buyer shall have acquired by means of the issuance of OP Units to Participating Beneficial Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for federal income tax purposes, the Buyer and the Seller agree that the Buyer will be treated as paying the Purchase Price to the Seller and the Seller will be treated as distributing to the Buyer, pursuant to the terms of Seller’s trust agreement, its proportionate share of the Purchase Price in respect of the beneficial interests in Seller acquired by Buyer from Participating Beneficial Owners.
2.4.4 As used in this Agreement, the term “Investor Package” shall mean such documents and other information as Buyer may deem necessary or advisable to provide to Beneficial Owners to make their decision as to whether to accept OP Units at Closing. As used in this Agreement, the term “OP Issuance Delivery Documents” shall mean such documents as Buyer may require Eligible Beneficial Owners to sign in order to induce Buyer to issue OP Units to such Eligible Beneficial Owners.
2.5. Independent Contract Consideration. One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) of the Deposit will be non-refundable to Buyer and may be immediately distributed to Seller as independent consideration for Seller entering into this Agreement. Such independent consideration is fully earned by Seller, is non-refundable under any circumstances, but will be applied to the Purchase Price at Closing.
3. Title. Within the period ending fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date (the “Title Review Period”), Buyer shall review and approve: (i) a current preliminary title report or title commitment (the “Title Report”) for the issuance of a standard coverage owner’s policy of title insurance, with standard provisions and exceptions (the “Title Policy”) issued by the Title Company, together with copies of all documents constituting exceptions to the title as reflected in the Title Report (collectively referred to hereinafter as the “Title Documents”); and (ii) either the existing survey of the Real Property, or, if available to Buyer, a new survey (in either case, the “Survey”). The Title Report, Title Documents, and the existing Survey (if any), have been delivered to Buyer or shall be delivered to Buyer promptly on or following the Effective Date. If
5 - AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE AND SALE
the Title Documents or the Survey reflect or disclose any defect, exception or other matter affecting the Property that is unacceptable to Buyer, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller thereof (whether one or more, “Buyer’s Objections”) within the Title Review Period. In its sole discretion, upon written notice to Buyer (the “Reply Notice”) given within two (2) business days of receipt of the Buyer’s Objections, Seller may elect to cure or remove Buyer’s Objections, and, if Seller elects to cure or remove any Buyer’s Objections, it shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to acquire the Property that Seller cures such Buyer’s Objections prior to Closing. Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure or remove any Buyer’s Objection that Seller does not agree to remove in such Reply Notice (or if Seller fails to provide a Reply Notice within such 2 business day period), in which case Buyer shall be entitled, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either to: (i) terminate this Agreement and obtain a refund of the Deposit from the Title Company and the Escrowed Equity from the Equity Escrow Holder by providing written notice of termination to Seller given within two (2) business days of receipt of the Reply Notice (or if no Reply Notice is given, then two (2) business days after the last date the Reply Notice could have been given) and returning the Due Diligence Items (as hereinafter defined), in which event all other escrowed documents and funds shall be returned by the Title Company and/or by Seller’s counsel, as applicable, to the party which delivered them into Escrow, and thereafter neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any continuing obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided herein; or (ii) waive those Buyer’s Objections that Seller has elected not to cure and close this transaction as otherwise contemplated herein. If Buyer fails to terminate this Agreement within such time period, all matters described in the Title Report and the Title Documents and shown on the Survey, except for any Buyer’s Objections that Seller has agreed in writing to cure, shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions.” As used in this Agreement, the term “Title Review Completion Date” shall mean the date which is the later of (A) the expiration of the Title Review Period if Buyer does not provide written notice to Seller of Buyer’s Objections within the Title Review Period, or (B) the expiration (without Buyer terminating this Agreement) of the period in which Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement if Seller does not provide a Reply Notice or if Seller does not agree to cure or remove Buyer’s Objections in a Reply Notice. If, after the end of the Title Review Period, a new materially adverse matter of title is disclosed on any update to the Title Documents, or a new materially adverse matter appears for the first time on an update of the Survey, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and recover the Deposit by sending formal notice of such termination within two business days of Buyer’s receipt of such new matter of title or survey. The Cure of Buyer’s Objection(s) may be accomplished, at the election of Seller, by removal of the same from the Title Policy or by including and paying the cost of an endorsement to the Title Policy insuring against loss by reason of the Buyer’s Objection(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall have no obligation to cure any of Buyer’s Objections except that Seller shall be obligated to satisfy, prior to or as of Closing, any and all (a) mortgages, deeds to secure debt or other voluntary liens (other than the Loan Documents) which encumber the Property and are evidenced by instruments to which Seller, or its predecessors in interest, is a party, and (b) monetary liens placed against the Property which are directly caused by Seller, including without limitation, tax liens, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or judgments that affect title to the Property. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, notices under this Section 3 must be given by facsimile or e-mail.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not conduct invasive testing of any kind (including, without limitation, “Phase II” environmental testing) without Seller’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. Buyer must arrange all Inspections with Seller at least two (2) business days in advance of any Inspections, and Buyer’s right to conduct the Inspections shall be subject to rights of Tenants and to such conditions as may be reasonably imposed by Seller in order to avoid disruption of the day to day operations at the Property.

In the event that Buyer believes in good faith that it is required by any legal requirement to disclose any such Privileged Information, then Buyer shall immediately notify Seller of such belief and the reasons for such belief. If within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, Seller advises the party that sent the notice that Seller shall itself disclose the information, then Buyer shall not make such disclosure (unless either such party reasonably believes that it must disclose such information by law).

If there is any default by Seller under this Agreement, following notice to Seller and seven (7) days, during which period Seller may cure the default, Buyer may, as it sole option, elect to either (i) declare this Agreement terminated by giving written notice of termination to Seller and the Title Company, whereupon the Title Company shall promptly refund the Deposit to Buyer, all other escrow documents and funds shall be returned by the Title Company and/or by Seller’s counsel, as applicable, to the party which delivered them into Escrow, the Equity Escrow Holder shall return the Escrowed Equity to Buyer, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for its actual verified out-of-pocket expenses in conducting its investigations of the Property, negotiating and finalizing this Agreement, and preparing for Closing, plus any non-refundable Loan Assumption Related Fees, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $100,000 and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations; or (ii) treat this Agreement as being in full force and effect and bring an action against Seller for specific performance.
14.2. Defaults by Buyer. If there is any default by Buyer under this Agreement, following notice to Buyer and seven (7) days, during which period Buyer may cure the default, then Seller may, as its sole remedy, declare this Agreement terminated, in which case the Deposit (but not the Escrowed Equity) shall be paid to Seller as liquidated damages, all other escrow documents and funds shall be returned by the Title Company and/or by Seller’s counsel, as applicable, to the party which delivered them into Escrow, the Equity Escrow Holder shall return the Escrowed Equity to Buyer, and each party shall thereupon be relieved of all further obligations and liabilities, except any which survive termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer’s right to cure shall not be applicable to a failure to close and the Closing shall in no event be extended pursuant to this Section.
