Thousand Seven Hundred Ten and No/100 Dollars ($9,987,710.00), ($62,000 of which shall be
attributable toward Erly’s fee interest in the Property) (“Purchase Price”) as adjusted by
the prorations and adjustments provided elsewhere in this Agreement and payable as follows:
2.1. Deposit.
2.1.1. Within two (2) business days following the mutual execution and exchange of this
Agreement, Buyer shall deposit into Escrow (as defined below) the amount of One Hundred Fifty
Thousand Four Hundred Fifty Eight and No/100 Dollars ($150,458.00)
2
(the “Deposit”), in
the form of a wire transfer payable to First American Title Insurance Company (“Escrow
Holder”). Escrow Holder shall place the Deposit into an interest bearing money market
account at a bank or other financial institution reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, and interest
thereon shall be credited to Buyer’s account and shall be deemed to be part of the Deposit.
2.1.2. On or before the Closing Date, Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow Holder to be held
in Escrow the balance of the Purchase Price, as adjusted by the prorations and adjustments
provided for in this Agreement, in immediately available funds by wire transfer made payable to
Escrow Holder.
2.1.3. Escrow Holder shall deposit the Deposit in a non-commingled trust account and shall
invest the Deposit in an insured, interest bearing money market accounts, certificates of
deposit, United States Treasury Bills or such other instruments as directed by Buyer and
reasonably acceptable to Seller and interest thereon shall be credited to Buyer’s account and
deemed to be part of the Deposit. In the event of the consummation of the purchase and sale of
the Property as contemplated hereunder, the Deposit shall be paid to Seller and credited against
the Purchase Price on the “Closing Date” (as defined below) to the extent such credit
when added to the aggregate amount of deposits that have been applied to purchase prices under
the purchase and sale agreements (the “Other Purchase and Sale Agreements”) related to
the properties listed on Schedule 2.1.3 attached hereto (the “Properties”) does
not exceed One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00). The balance of the Deposit, if any,
shall be held in Escrow and shall be paid, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Other
Purchase and Sale Agreement(s), to Seller’s affiliate and credited against the purchase price on
the closing date of the last of the Properties to be purchased by Buyer’s affiliate from
Seller’s affiliate. In the event the sale of the Property is not consummated because of (a) a
Seller default, (b) an Erly default, (c) the termination of this Agreement by Buyer in
accordance with any right to so terminate provided herein, or (d) Seller’s or Erly’s failure to
satisfy any of Buyer’s Closing Conditions (as defined below), or for any other reason, except
for a default by Buyer under Section 13.2, then the Deposit shall be immediately and
automatically paid over to Buyer without the need for any further action by either Party hereto.
In the event the sale of the Property is not consummated for any of the reasons set forth in
Section 13.2, the Deposit shall be promptly paid to and retained by Seller in accordance
with Section 13.2. As used herein, the term “Deposit” includes any deposit made
pursuant to an Other Purchase and Sale Agreement that was not applied to the purchase price
under such Other Purchase and Sale Agreement.
2.2. Independent Contract Consideration. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, One Hundred and No/100 Dollars
($100.00) of the Deposit is delivered to the Escrow Holder for delivery to Seller as “Independent
Contract Consideration,” and the Deposit is reduced by the amount of the Independent Contract
Consideration so delivered to Seller, which amount has been bargained for and agreed to as
consideration for Seller’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.
2.3. Holdback. At Closing, Escrow Holder shall withhold, for a period of 180 days following the Closing
Date, from proceeds which would otherwise be distributed to Seller, the sum of Forty Nine Thousand
Seven Hundred Fifty Two Dollars and and 63/100 Dollars
3
($49,752.63) (the “Holdback”).
The Holdback shall be held and disbursed by Escrow Holder in compliance with an Escrow Holdback
Agreement to be executed and delivered at Closing by Buyer, Seller and Escrow Holder in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Post-Closing Escrow Agreement”). At Closing,
Escrow Holder shall also withhold, for a period of 270 days following the Closing Date, from
proceeds which would otherwise be distributed to Seller, the sum of Eighty Nine Thousand Five
Hundred Fifty Four and 73/100 Dollars ($89,554.73) (the “SWF Guaranty Holdback”). The SWF
Guaranty Holdback shall be held and disbursed by Escrow Holder in compliance with a Guaranty
Holdback Agreement to be executed and delivered at Closing by Buyer, SWF Guarantor (as defined
herein) and Escrow Holder in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (the “Guaranty
Holdback Agreement”).
2.4.
Purchase Agreement Guaranty. As additional and separate consideration to Buyer, and to induce Buyer to enter into this
Agreement and acquire the Property, Seller shall cause Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, SWF, L.P., a
New York
limited partnership (“SWF Guarantor”) and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (individually and collectively,
“
Guarantor”) to execute and deliver to Buyer, at Closing, a Purchase Agreement Guaranty in
the form attached hereto as
Exhibit J (“
Guaranty”). Seller shall also cause SWF
Guarantor to execute the Guaranty Holdback Agreement and deliver the same to Buyer at Closing.
Guarantor shall execute this Agreement for the sole purpose of obligating Guarantor to execute and
deliver the Guaranty and the Guaranty Holdback Agreement, as applicable, to Buyer at the Closing.
Guarantor acknowledges that Buyer is and will be relying on this agreement by Guarantor, the
Guaranty and the Guaranty Holdback Agreement in entering into this Agreement and acquiring the
Property and that, but for this agreement by Guarantor, the Guaranty and the Guaranty Holdback
Agreement, Buyer would not enter into this Agreement or acquire the Property.
2.5. Purchase Price Adjustment. If during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer reasonably demonstrates that costs and expenses
of the Property are greater than historical costs and expenses for the Property and/or the in place
net operating income of the Property is less or more than what was originally disclosed by Seller
to Buyer on or before the Effective Date, Buyer and Seller shall meet and confer in order to
determine whether the Parties, in their sole and absolute discretion, can agree upon an appropriate
adjustment to the Purchase Price. If the Parties cannot agree on a Purchase
Price adjustment, the Purchase Price shall remain unchanged, subject to Buyer’s right to
terminate this Agreement in accordance with any right to so terminate provided herein.
3. Title to Property.
3.1. Title Insurance. At Closing, Erly shall convey to Buyer fee simple title to the Real Property by duly
executed and acknowledged Deed (as defined below) and Seller shall convey Unit 1 of the Condominium
by Unit Deed (as defined below) and its leasehold interest in the Ground Lease by an Assignment of
Ground Lease (as defined below). A condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement is the
issuance by First American Title Insurance Company whose address is 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx,
0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Telephone: (000)
000-0000, Facsimile: (000) 000-0000 (the “Title Company”) to Buyer of a 2006 ALTA Extended
Coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (with the arbitration provision, the creditors’ rights
exclusion and the general exceptions deleted) insuring fee simple title to the Real Property in
Buyer with liability in the amount of the
4
Purchase Price, subject only to such exceptions as Buyer
shall have approved pursuant to Section 3.2 below (the “Permitted Exceptions”), and
without survey exceptions, underwritten by First American Title Insurance Company (the “Title
Policy”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and notwithstanding any
approval or consent given or deemed given by Buyer hereunder, Seller and Erly covenant to cause to
be released and reconveyed from the Property, and to remove as exceptions to title on or prior to
the Closing Date all labor, materialmen’s and mechanics’ liens, mortgages (except to the extent
that Buyer is assuming the Existing Loan), deeds of trust and other monetary encumbrances, (the
“Pre-Disapproved Exceptions”).
3.2. Procedure for Approval of Title. Buyer may obtain an updated survey of the Property (the “Survey”). Buyer shall pay
all costs and expenses incurred in obtaining and delivering the Survey. Buyer shall have until the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period to review and approve, in writing, the condition of the
title to the Real Property (“Title Review Period”). If the Title Documents or the Survey
reflect or disclose any defect, exception or other matter affecting the Real Property (each, a
“Title Defect,” and collectively, the “Title Defects”) that is unacceptable to
Buyer, then Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice of Buyer’s objections no later than the
conclusion of the Title Review Period; provided, however, that if Buyer shall fail to notify Seller
in writing within the Title Review Period either that the condition of title is acceptable or of
any specific objections to the state of title to the Real Property, then Buyer shall be deemed to
have approved to all exceptions to title or other conditions or matters which are described in the
Title Documents or shown on the Survey. Seller may, at its sole option, elect, by written notice
given to Buyer within three (3) business days following the conclusion of the Title Review Period
(“Seller’s Notice Period”), to cure or remove the objections made or deemed to have been
made by Buyer; provided, however, Seller shall in all events have the obligation to (i) act in good
faith in making such election and curing any Title Defects that Seller elects to cure, (ii)
specifically remove the Pre-Disapproved Exceptions, and (iii) remove any Title Defect that attaches
to the Real Property subsequent to the conclusion of the Title Review Period. The failure of Seller
to deliver written notice electing to cure any or all such objected to exceptions during Seller’s
Notice Period shall be deemed an election by Seller not to cure such exceptions. Should Seller
elect to attempt to cure or remove any objection, Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from the
conclusion of the Title Review Period (“Cure Period”) in which to accomplish the cure. In
the event Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure or remove any objection, or in
any event Seller fails to cure or remove any objection which Seller agrees or is required to cure
within the Cure Period, then Buyer shall be entitled, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies,
either to (i) terminate this Agreement and obtain a refund of the Deposit or (ii) waive any
objections that Seller has not elected to cure and close this transaction as otherwise contemplated
herein. The failure of Buyer to provide written notice to Seller within ten (10) days following
the expiration of Seller’s Notice Period waiving any objections Seller has not elected to cure
shall be deemed an election by Buyer to waive its objections as to all Title Defects that are not
Pre-Disapproved Exceptions and/or that Seller has not agreed to release or cure. If at anytime
prior to the Closing Date, Buyer receives a new, updated or supplemental title commitment or Survey
and such new, updated or supplemental title commitment or Survey discloses one or more Title
Defects that are not Permitted Exceptions (in each case, a “New Title Defect”) and any New
Title Defect is unacceptable to Buyer, Buyer may, within three (3) business days after receiving
such new, updated or supplemental title commitment or Survey, as the case may be, deliver to Seller
another written notice of Buyer’s
5
objections with respect to any New Title Defect only and the
process described in this Section shall apply thereto.
4. Due Diligence Items. Seller shall deliver to Buyer the items set forth on Schedule 4 attached hereto, to
the extent such documents exist and are in Seller’s possession as of the Effective Date
(collectively, the “Due Diligence Items”).
5. Inspections.
5.1. Procedure; Indemnity. Buyer, at its sole expense, shall have the right to conduct feasibility, environmental,
engineering and physical studies of the Property at any time beginning on September 24, 2010 and
thereafter expiring on November 15, 2010 (the “Due Diligence Period”). Upon 48 hours
notice to Seller and accompanied by a Seller representative, Buyer and its duly authorized agents
or representatives shall be permitted to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times during the
Due Diligence Period in order to conduct tenant interviews (tenant interviews will be conducted
with the consent of Seller and Seller may be present during same), engineering studies, soil tests
and any other inspections and/or tests that Buyer may deem necessary or advisable (collectively,
the “Inspections”). Buyer agrees to promptly discharge any liens that may be imposed
against the Property as a result of Buyer’s Inspections and to defend, indemnify and hold Seller
harmless from all claims, suits, losses, costs, expenses (including without limitation court costs
and attorneys’ fees), liabilities, judgments and damages (collectively, “Claims”) incurred
by Seller as a result of any Inspections performed by Buyer, except for any Claims against Seller
based upon any obligations and liabilities of Seller
Buyer agrees to provide Seller with an insurance certificate from Buyer and any third party
entering the Property to perform Inspections, naming Seller as an additional insured prior to any
entry on the Property when invasive tests are contemplated. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold
Seller harmless from and against all losses, liabilities, obligations, charges, fees, claims,
litigation demands, defenses, costs, judgments, suits, proceedings, damages, disbursements or
expenses of any kind or of any nature whatsoever, (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements and costs of investigation) arising out of or from the
Inspections of the Property by Buyer or its agents or consultants, except to the extent caused by
Seller or any of its affiliates or related to a pre-existing condition. The obligations of Buyer
under the immediately preceding sentence shall expressly survive any termination of this Agreement.
In connection with the Inspections, Buyer shall not unreasonably disturb any Tenants use and
occupancy of the Property.
5.2. Approval.
5.2.1. Buyer shall have until the conclusion of the Due Diligence Period to approve or
disapprove of the Inspections, Due Diligence Items, and the economic feasibility of the
Property. If Buyer shall fail to deliver a written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder within
the Due Diligence Period approving Buyer’s due diligence, in Buyer’s sole and absolute
discretion, then (i) this Agreement and the Other Purchase and Sale Agreements shall thereupon
be automatically terminated, (ii) Buyer shall not be entitled to purchase the Property or any of
the Properties, (iii) Seller shall not be obligated to sell the Property or any of the
Properties to Buyer and (iv) the Parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to
6
each
other with respect to the Property and the Properties. Upon termination, Escrow Holder shall,
without any further action required from any Party, return all documents and funds, including
the Deposit and all of the deposits related to the Properties, to the Buyer and no further
duties shall be required of Escrow Holder.
5.2.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Buyer hereby agrees that
in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, then Buyer shall promptly and at its
sole expense return to Seller all Due Diligence Items which have been delivered by Seller to
Buyer in connection with Buyer’s inspection of the Property within five (5) business days
following the termination of this Agreement.
5.2.3. On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer may deliver a written
notice to Seller (the “Contracts Notice”) identifying those service contracts, vending
machine, telecommunications and other facilities leases, utility contracts, maintenance
contracts, management contracts, leasing contracts, equipment leases, brokerage and leasing
commission agreements and other agreements or rights related to the construction, ownership,
use, operation, occupancy, maintenance, repair or development of each Property (collectively,
the “Service Contracts”) listed on Schedule 5.2.3 that Seller shall assign to
Buyer and that Buyer shall assume as of the Closing Date (such designated Service Contracts
shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Assigned Contracts”). All Service
Contracts that are not Assigned Contracts (the “Terminated Contracts”) shall be
terminated at Closing by Seller whereupon the Terminated Contracts shall not be assigned to,
or assumed by, Buyer. To the extent that any Terminated Contracts require payment of a
penalty or premium for cancellation, Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of any
such cancellation fees or penalties. If Buyer fails to deliver the Contracts Notice on or
before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, all Service Contracts will be Terminated
Contracts.
6. Escrow.
6.1. Opening of Escrow. The sale of the Property shall be consummated through
an escrow (“Escrow”) to be
opened with Escrow Holder within two (2) business days after the execution of this Agreement by
Seller and Buyer. This Agreement shall constitute the joint escrow instructions between the
Parties, with such further consistent instructions as Escrow Holder shall require in order to
clarify its duties and responsibilities. If Escrow Holder shall require further Escrow
instructions, Escrow Holder may prepare such instructions on its usual form. Such further
instructions shall, so long as not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, be promptly
signed by Buyer and Seller and returned to Escrow Holder within three (3) business days after
receipt thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and any further Escrow instructions, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

occur ten (10) days after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. The date upon which the
Closing shall occur is referred to as the “Closing Date;” provided, however, that Buyer

6.7. Prorations.
6.7.1. Items to Be Prorated. The following shall be prorated between Seller and
Buyer as of the Closing Date with Buyer being deemed the owner of the Property as of the Closing
Date and with Buyer receiving credit for or charged with the entire day of the Closing. Except
as hereinafter expressly provided, all prorations shall be done on the basis of the actual
number of days in the year in which Closing occurs for the actual number of days elapsed to the
Closing Date or the actual number of days in the month in which the Closing occurs and the
actual number of days elapsed in such month to the Closing Date, as applicable:
(a) Taxes and Assessments. Seller shall pay, on or prior to Closing, any and all
delinquent real estate and personal property taxes and assessments with respect to the Property.
General real estate and personal property taxes and assessments and payments in lieu of taxes (if
applicable) that are due or accrue during the year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated as
of the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller shall pay on or before Closing
the full amount of any bonds or assessments against the Property, including interest payable
therewith, and including any bonds or assessments that may be payable after the Closing Date, that
are a result of or relate to the construction or operation of any Improvements or any public
improvements that serve only the Property. If after the Closing there is any retroactive increase
in the real or personal property taxes or assessments imposed on the Property: (i) if such
increase relates to the tax year in which the Closing occurred, then such increase shall be
prorated by Seller and Buyer on a per diem basis based on their respective periods of ownership
during the period to which such increase applies, (ii) if such increase relates to any tax year
subsequent to the tax year which the Closing occurred, then such increase shall be the obligation
of Buyer, and (iii) if such increase relates to any tax year prior to the tax year in which the
Closing occurred, then such increase shall be the obligation of Seller. The prorations shall be
based upon the most recently issued tax xxxx for the Property. If the most recent tax xxxx is not
for the current tax year, then the Parties shall reprorate within ninety (90) days of the receipt
of the tax xxxx for the current tax year.
11
(b) Rents. Rent and other charges under the Ground Lease and the Condominium shall be
prorated at Closing with Buyer reimbursing Seller and Erly, as applicable, for any rent or charges
paid prior to Closing but which are attributable to periods from and after the Closing Date. Buyer
will receive a credit at Closing for all rents collected by Seller prior to the Closing Date and
allocable to the period from and after the Closing Date based upon the actual number of days in the
month. No credit shall be given Seller for accrued and unpaid rent or any other non-current sums
due from Tenants until these sums are paid, and Seller shall retain the right to collect any such
rent provided Seller does not xxx to evict any tenants or terminate any Leases. Buyer shall
cooperate with Seller after the Closing Date to collect any rent under the Leases which has accrued
as of the Closing Date; provided, however, Buyer shall not be obligated to xxx any
Tenants or exercise any legal remedies under the Leases or to incur any expense over and above its
own regular collection expenses. All payments collected from
Tenants after the Closing Date shall first be applied to the month in which the Closing
occurs, then to any rent due to Buyer for the period after the Closing Date through the month in
which such payment was made, and finally to any rent due to Seller for the period prior to Closing
Date; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller collects any
payments from Tenants after the Closing Date through its own collection efforts and the Tenants
indicate that such payment is specifically for past-due amounts owed to Seller, Seller may first
apply such payments to rent due Seller for the period prior to the Closing Date. Subject to this
subsection, if Seller receives any payment from a Tenant for rent due and payable for any period
from and after the Closing Date, then Seller agrees to promptly endorse and forward such un-cashed
check or payment to Buyer no later than the next business day.
(c) CAM Expenses. To the extent that Tenants are reimbursing the landlord for common
area maintenance and other operating expenses (collectively, “CAM Charge(s)”), CAM Charges
shall be prorated at Closing and again subsequent to Closing, as of the Closing Date on a
lease-by-lease basis with each Party being entitled to receive a portion of the CAM Charges payable
under each Lease for the CAM Lease Year (as defined below) in which Closing occurs, which portion
shall be equal to the actual CAM Charges incurred during the Party’s respective periods of
ownership of the Property during the CAM Lease Year. As used herein, the term “CAM Lease
Year” means the twelve (12) month period as to which annual CAM Charges are owed under each
Lease. Five (5) days prior to the Closing Date Seller shall submit to Buyer an itemization of its
actual CAM Charge expenses through such date and the amount of CAM Charges received by Seller as of
such date, together with an estimate of CAM Charges to be incurred to, but not including, the
Closing Date. In the event that Seller has received CAM Charge payments in excess of its actual
CAM Charge expenses, Buyer shall be entitled to receive a credit against the Purchase Price for the
excess. In the event that Seller has received CAM Charge payments less than its actual CAM Charge
expenses, to the extent that the Leases provide for a “true up” at the end of the CAM Lease Year,
Seller shall be entitled to receive any deficit but only after Buyer has received any true up
payment from the Tenant. Upon receipt by either Party of any CAM Charge true up payment from a
Tenant, the Party receiving the same shall provide to the other Party its allocable share of the
“true up” payment within five (5) days of the receipt thereof.
To assist Buyer in preparing “true up” reconciliation at the end of the CAM Lease Year, Seller
shall deliver to Buyer records of all of Seller’s CAM Charge expenditures at the Closing for the
CAM Lease Year in question.
12
(d) Operating Expenses. All operating expenses (including all charges under the
Assigned Contracts and agreements assumed by Buyer) shall be prorated, and as to each service
provider, operating expenses payable or paid to such service provider in respect to the billing
period of such service provider in which the Closing occurs (the “Current Billing Period”),
shall be prorated on a per diem basis based upon the number of days in the Current Billing Period
prior to the Close Date and the number of days in the Current Billing Period from and after the
Closing Date, and assuming that all charges are incurred uniformly during the Current Billing
Period. If actual bills for the Current Billing Period are unavailable as of the Closing Date,
then such proration shall be made on an estimated basis based upon the most recently issued bills,
subject to readjustment upon receipt of actual bills.
(e) Security Deposits; Prepaid Rents. All deposits, including, without limitation,
all prepaid rentals, damage, and other tenant charges and security deposits (including any portion
thereof which may be designated as prepaid rent) under Leases, if and to the extent that such
deposits are in Seller’s actual possession or control and have not been otherwise applied by Seller
to any obligations of any Tenants under the Leases and any interest earned thereon which by law or
the terms of the Leases could be required to be paid or refunded to Tenants, shall be assigned to
Buyer and either delivered to Buyer or, at Buyer’s option, credited to Buyer against the Purchase
Price, and upon the Closing Date, Buyer shall assume full responsibility for all security deposits
to be refunded to the Tenants under the Leases (to the extent the same are required to be refunded
by the terms of such Leases or applicable). To the extent that any free rent, abatements or other
unexpired concessions under any Leases (collectively, “Abatements”) apply to any period
after the Closing Date, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price for the
amount of any such Abatements. In the event that any security deposits are in a form other than
cash (the instrument constituting such security deposits shall be known as, the “Non-Cash
Security Deposits”), Seller will, at Closing cause Buyer to be named as beneficiary under the
Non-Cash Security Deposits. Buyer will not receive a credit against the Purchase Price for such
security deposits. In the event that Buyer cannot be named the beneficiary under the Non-Cash
Security Deposits as of the Closing Date, a cash escrow equal to the amount of the Non-Cash
Security Deposit will be established at the Closing until the Non-Cash Security Deposits are
reissued in Buyer’s name. Prior to such time of reissue, Buyer shall be entitled to draw from such
cash escrow in the event the terms of the relevant lease entitle Buyer, as landlord, to draw on the
Non-Cash Security Deposit.
(f) Leasing Costs. Seller shall receive a credit at the Closing for all leasing
costs, including tenant improvement costs and allowances, and its pro-rata leasing commissions,
previously paid by Seller in connection with any Lease or modification to an existing Lease which
was entered into after the Effective Date and which is approved or deemed approved by Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement, which approval included approval of the tenant improvement costs.
Seller’s pro-rata share shall be equal to a fraction which has as its numerator the number of
months left in the base term of the Lease after the Closing Date and which has as its denominator
the number of months in the base term of the Lease. Seller shall pay for all tenant improvement
allowances and leasing commissions with respect to the premises leased as of the Effective Date by
the Tenants pursuant to the Leases in effect as of the Effective Date, to the extent that such
tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions are unpaid as of the Closing Date.
13
(g) Water and Sewer Charges. Water and sewer charges for the Property shall be
apportioned as of the date of the Closing.
6.7.2. Calculation; Reproration. Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer no
later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date an estimated closing statement
which shall set forth all costs payable, and the prorations and credits provided for in this
Agreement and to the extent Seller does not timely deliver the estimated closing statement to
Buyer, Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to extend the Closing Date by the
number of days Seller is delinquent in delivering such estimated closing statement to Buyer.
Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be
tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and adjusted when the
information is available in accordance with this subsection. The Parties shall attempt in
good faith to reconcile any differences or disputes regarding such estimated closing statement
no later than one (1) business day before the Closing Date. The estimated closing statement as
adjusted as aforesaid and approved in writing by the Parties (which shall not be withheld if
prepared in accordance with this Agreement) shall be referred to herein as the “Closing
Statement”. If the prorations and credits made under the Closing Statement shall prove to
be incorrect or incomplete for any reason, then either Party shall be entitled to an adjustment
to correct the same; provided, however, that any adjustment shall be made, if at
all, within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (except with respect to CAM Charges, taxes
and assessments, in which case such adjustment shall be made within ninety (90) days after the
information necessary to perform such adjustment becomes available and is provided to all
Parties), and if a Party fails to request an adjustment to the Closing Statement by a written
notice delivered to the other Party within the applicable period set forth above (such notice to
specify in reasonable detail the items within the Closing Statement that such Party desires to
adjust and the reasons for such adjustment), then the prorations and credits set forth in the
Closing Statement shall be binding and conclusive against such Party.
6.7.3. Items Not Prorated. Seller and Buyer agree that (a) none of the insurance
policies relating to the Property will be assigned to Buyer and Buyer shall be responsible for
arranging for its own insurance as of the Closing Date; and (b) utilities, including telephone,
electricity, water and sewer (if water and sewer charges are included in the property tax bills)
and gas, shall be read on the Closing Date and Buyer shall be responsible for all the necessary
actions needed to arrange for utilities to be transferred to the name of Buyer on the Closing
Date, including the posting of any required deposits and Seller shall be entitled to recover and
retain from the providers of such utilities any refunds or overpayments to the extent applicable
to the period prior to the Closing Date, and any utility deposits which it or its predecessors
may have posted. Accordingly, there will be no prorations for debt service, insurance or
utilities. In the event a meter reading is unavailable for any particular utility, such utility
shall be prorated in the manner provided in Section 6.7.2 above.
6.7.4. Indemnification. Buyer and Seller shall each indemnify, protect, defend and
hold the other harmless from and against any claim in any way arising from the matters for which
the other receives a credit or otherwise assumes responsibility
pursuant to this Section 6.7.
14
6.7.5. Survival. This Section 6.7 shall survive the Closing.

13. Remedies.
13.1. Seller Default. If Seller or Erly fails to close the purchase of the Property due to a Seller or Erly
default, Buyer may, as its sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, elect one of the following
remedies, at Buyer’s sole election: (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and
Escrow Holder, and upon receipt of such notice of termination, Escrow Holder shall promptly refund
the Deposit to Buyer and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs up to
a maximum amount of Seventy-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($75,000.00) (which costs must be
substantiated by invoices); or (ii) commence an action or proceeding for specific performance. The
provisions of this Section 13.1 shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
13.2. Buyer Default. In the event the sale of the Property is not consummated solely because of a default under
this Agreement on the part of Buyer following notice to Buyer and seven (7) days thereafter during
which period Buyer may cure the default, Seller may declare this Agreement terminated, in which
case, the Deposit shall be paid to and retained by Seller as liquidated damages. The Parties have
agreed that Seller’s actual damages, in the event the sale of the Property is not consummated
solely because of a default by Buyer, would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine.
Therefore, the Parties acknowledge that the Deposit has been agreed upon, after negotiation, as the
Parties’ reasonable estimate of Seller’s and Erly’s damages and as Seller’s and Erly’s sole and
exclusive remedy against Buyer, at law or in equity, in the event the sale of the Property is not
consummated solely because of a default under this Agreement on the Party of Buyer and each Party
shall thereupon be relieved of all further obligations and liabilities, except any which survive
termination. The foregoing notwithstanding, no right to cure shall extend the Closing. The
provisions of this Section 13.2 shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
14. [INTENTIONALLY DELETED].
15. Assignment. Neither Seller nor Erly shall assign any of its right, title, claim or interest in, to or
under this Agreement. Buyer may assign any or all of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement upon notice to the Seller, to any one or more persons or entities affiliated with the
Buyer and specifically created by the Buyer for the purchase of the Property; provided, however,
that absent the express agreement of Seller, no such assignment shall release Buyer from its
liabilities hereunder.
16. Interpretation and Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State
where the Property is located. Where required for proper interpretation, words in the singular
shall include the plural; the masculine gender shall include the neuter and the feminine,
and vice versa. The terms “successors and assigns” shall include the heirs, administrators,
executors, successors, and assigns, as applicable, of any Party hereto.
17. Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except by an agreement in writing signed by
the Parties. The Parties may waive any of the conditions contained herein or any of the
obligations of the other Party hereunder, but any such waiver shall be effective only if in writing
and signed by the Party waiving such conditions and obligations.
31
18. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event a court action arises concerning the performance, meaning or interpretation of
any provision of this Agreement or any document executed in connection with this Agreement, the
prevailing party in such action shall be awarded any and all costs and expenses incurred by the
prevailing party in enforcing, defending or establishing its rights hereunder or thereunder,
including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys and expert witness fees. In
addition to the foregoing award of costs and fees, the prevailing party shall also be entitled to
recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in any post judgment proceedings to collect or
enforce any judgment. The provisions of this Section 18 shall survive the Closing or
termination of this Agreement.
19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto, constitutes the
entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith. No
representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or condition not expressed in this Agreement shall
be binding upon the Parties hereto nor shall affect or be effective to interpret, change, or
restrict the provisions of this Agreement.
20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which when taken
together shall constitute the entire agreement of the Parties.
21. Calculation of Time Periods. Unless otherwise specified, in computing any period of time described herein, the day of
the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and
the last day of the period so computed is to be included, except that if such last day falls upon a
Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday under the Federal law or laws of the State(s) where the Property
is located, then such period shall run until the end of the next day that is neither a Saturday,
Sunday, or legal holiday under Federal law or the laws of the State(s) where the Property is
located. The last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at 11:59 p.m.
New York time.
22. Real Estate Commission. Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other that neither Seller nor Buyer has
contacted or entered into any agreement with any real estate broker, agent, finder or any other
Party in connection with this transaction, and that neither Party has taken any action which would
result in any real estate broker’s, finder’s or other fees or commissions being due and payable to
any Party with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby, except that Seller will pay a
commission to Healthcare Real Estate Capital LLC (“Broker”) under the terms of a separate
agreement between Seller and Broker. Such commission amounts shall be payable on the Closing Date
from the proceeds of the Purchase Price deposited by Buyer. Each Party hereby indemnifies and
agrees to hold the other Party harmless from any loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting to the other Party by reason of a breach of the
representation and warranty made by such Party in this Section. The provisions of this Section
22 shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
23. Further Assurances. Each Party will, whenever and as often as it shall be requested to do so by the other
Party, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered any
and all such further conveyances, assignments, approvals,
32
consents and any and all other documents
and do any and all other acts as may be necessary to carry out the intent and purpose of this
Agreement.
24. Exclusivity. Until the Closing Date or the date that this Agreement is terminated, Seller shall not
enter into any contract, or enter into or continue any negotiations, to sell the Property to any
person or entity other than Buyer, nor will Seller solicit proposals from, or furnish any
non-public information to, any person or entity other than Seller’s agents, attorneys and lenders
and Buyer regarding the possible sale of the Property.
25. SEC Filings. Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that Buyer is a subsidiary of a publicly
registered company and will be required to make certain filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC Filings”) that relate to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year
(the “Audited Year”) and the current fiscal year through the date of acquisition (the
“Stub Period”) for the Property. To assist Buyer in preparing the SEC Filings, Seller
agrees to provide Buyer, at or before the Closing, with the following or provide Buyer with access
to all of the following at Seller’s offices: however, if Seller as not prepared any of such items
in the normal course of Seller’s business, then Seller shall create such items provided Buyer
reimburses Seller for Seller’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with creating
the same: (i) access to bank statements for the Audited Year and Stub Period, (ii) rent roll as of
the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period, (iii) operating statements for the Audited Year and
Stub Period (iv) access to the general ledger for the Audited Year and Stub Period, (v) cash

26. Confidentiality. Neither Party shall make public disclosure with respect to this transaction before Closing
except:
(a) as may be required by law, including without limitation disclosure required under Freedom
of Information Act (“FOIA”) request, securities laws, or by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or by the rules of any stock exchange, or in connection with any filing or
registration;
(b) to such attorneys, accountants, present or prospective sources of financing, partners,
directors, officers, employees and representatives of either Party or of such Party’s advisors who
need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating and consummating the transaction,
including the financing of the transaction;

is required from the applicable industrial development agency; and
(e) Seller may notify Tenants in connection with its request for execution of the estoppel

to purchase the Property, an offer to sell the Property or an agreement to purchase and sell. This
Agreement shall have no binding effect and will only be effective upon Seller’s and Buyer’s

THIS POST-CLOSING ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into the ____ day of
____________, 2010 (“Effective Date”), by and among 1375 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., a New York
limited liability company (“Seller”); HTA – WASHINGTON MEDICAL ARTS II, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (“Buyer”); and FIRST AMERICAN TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY
(“Escrow Holder”).
WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated
_______________, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), whereby Seller has agreed to sell and
Buyer has agreed to purchase certain properties and interests in properties on lands more
particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and as additional consideration
under the Purchase Agreement, Seller is obligated to deposit in escrow with the Escrow Holder the
Escrow Funds (defined below), for the period set forth herein and for the purpose of satisfying any
Post Closing Claim (defined below) under the terms of the Purchase Agreement;
WHEREAS, Seller and Buyer desire to have the Escrow Holder hold the Escrow Funds for
disbursement to Seller and Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Escrow Holder agrees to hold the Escrow Funds and disburse such Escrow Funds to
Seller and Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement not otherwise expressly
defined in this Agreement shall have the same meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase
Agreement.
2. Deposit of Escrow Funds. Escrow Holder acknowledges the receipt from Seller of
Forty Nine Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Two Dollars and 63/100 Dollars ($49,752.63) (the
“Escrow Funds”). The Escrow Funds are the property of Seller subject to the terms of this
Agreement. Escrow Holder shall disburse the Escrow Funds in strict accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.
3. Deposit Information.
(a) The Escrow Funds shall be deposited in a separately segregated interest bearing account or
accounts (the “Escrow Account”) at a financial institution insured by the FDIC. All
interest earned by the funds in the Escrow Account shall be accumulated in the Escrow Account,
become a part of the Escrow Funds and be disbursed as provided below.
Exhibit E - Page 1
(b) Seller’s Employer Identification Number is _______________.
4. Disbursement of Escrow Funds.
(a) Post Closing Claims. If (i) within 180 days of the Closing Date, Buyer alleges, in good
faith with a good faith belief there is just cause, that Seller has breached any of its
representations, warranties, or covenants set out in Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement
that are to survive Closing (the “Post Closing Claim”); (ii) it is finally determined that
Seller breached such representations, warranties, or covenants; and (iii) the actual damages
incurred by Buyer, once finally determined, for such breaches, when combined with the damages
incurred by Buyer for all other breaches of such representations, warranties, or covenants, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, are in excess of $10,000.00, then Buyer is
entitled to a disbursement of the Escrow Funds for the amount of damages caused by Seller’s breach;
provided, however, the aggregate amount the Buyer shall be entitled to recover will not exceed the
balance in the Escrow Account. At the end of 180 days after the Closing Date, the funds in the
Escrow Account (including all earnings and interest) shall be disbursed to Seller; provided,
however, if a Post Closing Claim has been made and is not finally determined at the end of the 180
day period, the portion of the Escrow Funds alleged by Buyer to be necessary to satisfy any such
Post Closing Claim shall not be disbursed until the Post Closing Claim is finally resolved or
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by mutual agreement of the parties. Buyer shall
timely submit any Post Closing Claim to Seller, in writing, setting forth, in detail, the specific
representations, warranties and/or covenants that have allegedly been breached and the factual
basis for the alleged breach, and the amount of damages allegedly incurred by Buyer (the “Claim
Notice”). Buyer shall simultaneously provide a copy of such Claim Notice to Escrow Holder.
The phrase “finally determined” means the sooner to occur of a final decision made by a court of
competent jurisdiction, settlement between Seller and Buyer, or a binding decision reached through
an alternative dispute resolution procedure approved by Seller and Buyer.
(b) Within ten (10) business days following the date the Seller receives a Claim Notice, the
Seller shall notify the Buyer in reasonable detail of its dispute as to the allegations set forth
in Buyer’s Claim Notice or its approval of the Post Closing Claim. If Seller approves of the Post
Closing Claim, the Escrow Holder will promptly disburse from the Escrow Account to the Buyer the
amount of damages, but not to exceed the balance remaining in the Escrow Account. If Seller does
not dispute the Post Closing Claim within ten (10) business days of its receipt of the Claim
Notice, the Post Closing Claim shall be deemed to be disputed by the Seller. If Seller disputes or
is deemed to dispute the Post Closing Claim, the Escrow Holder shall retain the Escrow Funds in the
Escrow Account until such time as there is a final determination by a court of competent
jurisdiction as to whether the Seller breached any of its representations, warranties, or covenants
in Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement. A “final determination” means the sooner to occur
of a final decision made by a court of competent jurisdiction, settlement between Seller and Buyer,
or a binding decision reached through an alternative dispute resolution procedure approved by
Seller and Buyer.
(c) If Escrow Holder receives a Claim Notice from Buyer within 180 days of the Closing Date,
Escrow Holder shall disburse the Escrow Funds in accordance with the joint written instructions of
Buyer and Seller or pursuant to a final determination (as defined
Exhibit E - Page 2
herein), within three (3) business days of the receipt of such joint written instructions or
final determination. Provided, however, despite the receipt of Claim Notice within the six (6)
month period, that Escrow Holder shall disburse Escrow Funds to Seller in an amount equal to the
Escrow Account balance less the amount of damages claimed by Buyer in the Claim Notice.
(d) If Escrow Holder does not receive a Claim Notice from Buyer within 180 days of the Closing
Date, Escrow Holder shall, within three (3) business days of the expiration of such 180 day period,
disburse the balance of the Escrow Account (including all earnings and interest on the Escrow
Funds) to Seller in the manner directed by Seller.
5. Third Party Claims. The Escrow Funds shall not be disbursed by Escrow Holder for
any Post Closing Claim which arises from a claim by a third party when that claim has been settled
by or on behalf of Buyer without Seller’s written approval, provided such written approval has not
been unreasonably withheld.
6. Liability and Protection of Escrow Holder.
(a) Powers — Generally. Escrow Holder has only the rights, powers, privileges, and
duties expressly set forth in this Agreement, together with those rights, powers, and privileges
reasonably incident thereto, and is not a party to, and is not bound by, or charged with notice of
any agreement other than this Agreement.
(b) Actions on Notice, etc. Escrow Holder may rely upon any written notice, request,
waiver, consent, certificate, receipt, authorization, power of attorney or other document that
Escrow Holder, in good faith, reasonably believes to be genuine and to be signed by the proper
party or parties hereto.
(c) Advice of Counsel. Escrow Holder may rely on the legal opinion of its legal
counsel in the event of any dispute or question concerning the construction of any provision of
this Agreement or its duties hereunder, and shall incur no liability as a result of reliance on
such opinion.
(d) Compensation for Services. Escrow Holder shall be entitled to reasonable fees and
expenses for customary services, as Escrow Holder hereunder, according to its standard rate sheet
for these services and all such compensation shall be paid and shared one-half by Buyer and
one-half by Seller. The fees and expenses may be revised from time to time to reflect current
rates for such services.
(e) Resignation. Escrow Holder may resign upon seven (7) days prior written notice to
the other parties to this Agreement. Escrow Holder may be removed by the mutual agreement of
Seller and Buyer. If Escrow Holder resigns or Seller and Buyer agree to remove the Escrow Holder,
then Seller and Buyer must use their best efforts to agree upon a substitute Escrow Holder. If
Escrow Holder resigns or is removed and no successor Escrow Holder is agreed upon within forty-five
(45) days following the resignation or removal of the existing Escrow Holder, Buyer may designate
the successor Escrow Holder provided such Escrow Holder must be a title company with an office
in ______________, __________.
Exhibit E - Page 3
(f) Liability — Negligent Acts. Escrow Holder will not be liable for anything that it
may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement, except for acts that constitute
gross negligence, willful misconduct, or constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties.

Escrow Holder harmless from and against all costs, damages, judgments, attorneys’ fees, expenses,

9. Books and Records. Escrow Holder will maintain proper books and records for the
Escrow Account. All amounts to be disbursed by Escrow Holder under this Agreement shall be paid

PURCHASE AGREEMENT GUARANTY
THIS PURCHASE AGREEMENT GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is given this ____ day of
__________, 2010 (“Effective Date”), by __________________________ (“Guarantor”),
to HTA - WASHINGTON MEDICAL ARTS II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”),
with respect to the following Recitals:
RECITALS
A. 1375 ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., a New York limited liability company (“Seller”) and Buyer
have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Purchase Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions
dated _______________, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with respect to those certain
properties listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (collectively, the “Property”). Terms used
and not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the meanings given thereto in the Purchase
Agreement. This is the Guaranty contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
B. Guarantor, as the [direct or indirect member of Seller], is deriving substantial
consideration from the sale of the Property to Buyer, and is executing and delivering this Guaranty
to induce Buyer to acquire the Property. This Guaranty is a material portion of the consideration
to be received by Buyer pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. But for this Guaranty, Buyer would not
have entered into the Purchase Agreement or acquired the Property.
[C. To secure Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, Guarantor will execute the Guaranty
Holdback Agreement dated as of even date herewith. The SWF Guaranty Holdback will be held and
disbursed by Escrow Holder in compliance with the Guaranty Holdback Agreement.]
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing Recitals (which are incorporated
herein by this reference), the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Guaranty, and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by
Guarantor, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees and promises to perform,
pay and be liable, without deduction, setoff or counterclaim, for any and all duties, obligations
and liabilities of Seller under Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement that expressly survive
the Closing (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”), no matter how arising, in any way
related to or arising out of the Purchase Agreement or any other agreements entered into by Buyer
and Seller in connection therewith (each, a “Purchase Document” and collectively, the
“Purchase Documents”). If Seller shall at any time default in the punctual payment,
performance or observance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor shall also pay to Buyer
all reasonable and necessary incidental damages and expenses incurred by Buyer as a direct and
proximate result of Seller’s failure to pay, keep, perform or observe such Guaranteed
Exhibit J - Page 2
Obligations, which expenses shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest on all sums
due and owing Buyer by reason of Seller’s failure to pay same, at the maximum rate allowed by law.
2. This Guaranty is, and is intended to be, an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and
continuing guaranty which shall not be affected by any act or thing whatsoever except as herein
provided, and which shall be independent of and in addition to any other guaranty, endorsement or
collateral held by Buyer.
3. Buyer may from time to time enforce this Guaranty against Guarantor without being required
first to proceed or exhaust its remedies against Seller or any other person or resorting to any
other means of obtaining payment or performance.
4. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives any and all suretyship and
any and all other rights or defenses arising by reason of any law related to enforcement by Buyer
of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, Guarantor agrees that until the
Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full, Guarantor shall not be released by or
because of: (i) any act or event which might otherwise discharge, reduce, limit or modify the
Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, delay or other act
or omission of Buyer, or its failure to proceed promptly or otherwise as against Guarantor; (iii)
any action, omission or circumstance which might increase the likelihood that Guarantor may be
called upon to perform under this Guaranty or which might affect the rights or remedies of [any]
Guarantor as against Buyer or Seller; or (iv) any dealings occurring at any time between Seller and
Buyer, relating to the transaction contemplated herein or otherwise, including, without limitation,
any change, amendment, modification or supplement to, or waiver or release of any provisions of,
the Purchase Document or any other pertinent document or agreement. Guarantor authorizes Buyer,
without notice, demand or Guarantor’s consent, and without affecting Guarantor’s liability
hereunder, from time to time to: (a) compromise, extend or otherwise change the terms of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, (b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations,
and exchange, enforce, waive, and release any such security; and (c) apply such security and direct
the order or manner of sale thereof as Buyer in its reasonable discretion may determine in order to
satisfy the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives any right to require the marshalling of
assets of Seller, or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect
to any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor is informed of, and agrees that it will continue
to keep informed of, the financial condition of Seller and of all other circumstances which a
diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or (z) pursue any other remedy in Buyer’s power. Further, Guarantor
hereby waives notice of any change, amendment, supplement, waiver or release, and further agrees
that Guarantor’s duties, obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be unconditional and shall not
be subject to any defense, setoff or counterclaim whatsoever, or any other act, omission or
circumstance whatsoever which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
guarantor.
5. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected by: (a) the release or
discharge of Seller in any creditor’s, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceeding; (b) the
impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of Seller or the estate of Seller in
bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of Seller’s liability under any Purchase Document
resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any bankruptcy or
Exhibit J - Page 3
insolvency code, or any amendments thereto, or other statute or from the decision of any court
(and no stay in any such action shall affect, stay or release Guarantor from the Guaranteed
Obligations); (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of any Purchase Document in any such proceedings;
(d) the assignment, encumbrance or transfer of any Purchase Document by Seller; (e) any right or
defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of
Seller or any other person; (f) any right or defense arising by reason of the absence, impairment,
modification, limitation, destruction or cessation (in bankruptcy, by an election of remedies, or
otherwise) of the liability of Seller or the subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or
contribution rights of Guarantor; (g) the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of
Seller other than the full and complete payment, performance and observance of all of Seller’s
duties, obligations and liabilities under any Purchase Document; or (h) the exercise by Buyer of
any of its rights or remedies under any Purchase Document or by law.
6. Guarantor unconditionally waives any defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty based upon
any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in
amount nor in any other aspects more burdensome than that of a principal.
7. Guarantor unconditionally waives any defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty based on
the lack of authority of the members, officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting
to act on behalf of Buyer, Guarantor or any principal of Buyer or Guarantor or any defect in the
formation of Buyer, Guarantor or any principal of Buyer or Guarantor as a legal entity.
8. Should Buyer be obligated by any bankruptcy or other law to repay or refund to Seller, or
any trustee, receiver or other representative of Seller, any amounts previously paid by Seller to
Buyer pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Purchase Document, this Guaranty shall apply and
be reinstated with respect to any such repayments and refunds. Guarantor shall not commence, or
join with any other person in commencing, any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding
against Seller. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be altered, limited or
affected by any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Seller, or by any defense which Seller
may have by reason of any order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting
from any such proceeding.
9. All monies or other property of Guarantor at any time in Buyer’s possession may be held by
Buyer as security for any and all Guaranteed Obligations no matter how or when arising, whether
absolute or contingent, whether due or to become due. The Guaranteed Obligations shall not be
considered fully paid, performed and discharged unless and until all payments to Buyer are no
longer subject to any right on the part of any person whomsoever, including, without limitation,
Seller, as a debtor-in-possession, and/or any trustee or receiver in bankruptcy, to set aside such
payments or seek to recoup the amount of such payments, or any part thereof. If any such payments
to Buyer are set aside after the making thereof, in whole or in part, or settled without
litigation, to the extent of such settlement, all of which shall be within Buyer’s reasonable
discretion, Guarantor shall be liable for the full amount Buyer is required to repay plus
out-of-pocket costs, interest, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all out-of-pocket expenses
which Buyer paid or incurred in connection therewith.
Exhibit J - Page 4
10. Until all of Seller’s duties, obligations and liabilities under all Purchase Documents are
satisfied in full Guarantor (a) shall have no right of subrogation against Seller by reason of any
payments or acts of performance by Guarantor under this Guaranty; and (b) subordinates any
liability or indebtedness of Seller now or hereafter owed to or held by Guarantor to the duties,
obligations and liabilities of Seller under, arising out of or related to the Purchase Documents.
11. All rights and remedies afforded to Buyer by reason of this Guaranty or by law are
separate and cumulative and the exercise or waiver of one shall not in any way limit or prejudice
the exercise of any other such right or remedy. Guarantor’s performance of a portion, but not all,
of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor’s
liability for that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which is not performed. Without in any
way limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Buyer is awarded a judgment in any
suit brought to enforce Guarantor’s covenant to perform a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations,
such judgment shall in no way be deemed to release Guarantor from its covenant to perform any
portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which is not the subject of such suit.
12. Guarantor hereby expressly waives notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by Buyer.
Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any right or defense based on
the absence of any or all presentments, demands, notices and protests of each and every kind.
13. Guarantor agrees, unless otherwise required by law or a specific agreement to the
contrary, all payments received by Buyer from Seller, or any other party other than such Guarantor,
with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, shall be applied by Buyer in such manner and order as
Buyer desires, in its sole discretion. In that regard, Guarantor hereby waives any and all rights
it has or may have under applicable law which provides that if guarantor is “liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the obligation, the
principal may designate the portion of the obligation to be satisfied”. All payments received by
Buyer from Guarantor shall be applied by Buyer to the obligations of Guarantor to Buyer, in such
manner and order as Buyer desires in its sole discretion.
14. Guarantor warrants and represents:
(i) Guarantor has the capacity and authority to enter into this Guaranty and consummate the
transactions herein provided and nothing prohibits or restricts the right or ability of Guarantor
to enter into, or perform its obligations under, this Guaranty.
(ii) Neither this Guaranty nor any agreement, document or instrument executed or to be
executed in connection with the same, nor anything provided in or contemplated by this Guaranty or
any such other agreement, document or instrument, does now or shall hereafter breach, invalidate,
cancel, make inoperative or interfere with, or result in the acceleration or maturity of, any
agreement, document, instrument, right or interest, affecting or relating to Guarantor.
Exhibit J - Page 5
(iii) Guarantor is related and/or affiliated with Seller, has personal knowledge of, is
familiar with Seller’s business affairs and books and records and warrants that Seller is in sound
financial condition as of the Effective Date.
(iv) Guarantor has received copies of and is familiar with the Purchase Documents.
(v) The most recent financial statement received by Buyer from such Guarantor dated as of
__________, _____ reflects the current financial condition of Guarantor in all material respects.
15. Guarantor shall maintain at all times during the entire period this Guaranty remains in
effect (i) Liquid Assets (as defined below) in an amount equal to not less than
[___________________________] and No/Hundred Dollars ($[_______________]) and (ii) a Net Worth (as
defined below) in an amount equal to not less than [_________________] and No/Hundred Dollars
($[_________________]).
“Liquid Assets” means unencumbered and unrestricted cash or other cash equivalent
investments owned directly by Guarantor that immediately can be liquidated into unencumbered and
unrestricted cash (e.g., publicly traded stock on the NYSE).
“Net Worth” means all assets (excluding intangible assets, and assets either
restricted, pledged or encumbered by a security interest or lien) less liabilities determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
16. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of (i) all of the
Guaranteed Obligations under the Purchase Documents have been satisfied in full and are no longer
subject to disgorgement under any applicable state or federal creditor rights or bankruptcy laws.
No delay on the part of Buyer in exercising any options, powers or rights, or the partial or single
exercise thereof, shall constitute a waiver thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall
have no right to assert a claim against Guarantor under this Guaranty after the period of nine (9)
months following Effective Date.
17. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given under
this Guaranty shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given upon (i) hand delivery or

shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective
successors, heirs, administrators and permitted assignees.
(c) No Third Party Beneficiary. This Guaranty is solely for the benefit of Buyer and

Seller.
(d) Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Guaranty may be amended or
modified only by a written instrument executed by Buyer.
(e) Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of New York without reference to choice of law principles which
might indicate that the law of some other jurisdiction should apply.
(f) Interpretation. The headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference
purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation hereof. Whenever the
context hereof shall so require, the singular shall include the plural, the male gender shall

Exhibit J - Page 7
(g) Merger of Prior Guaranties. This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties and supersedes all prior agreement and understandings between the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof.
(h) Dispute Resolution. The parties agree to use their good faith efforts to settle
promptly any disputes or claims arising out of or relating to this Guaranty through negotiation
conducted in good faith between executives having authority to reach such a settlement. Either
party may, by written notice to the other, refer any such dispute or claim for advice or resolution
to mediation by a suitable mediator. The mediator shall be chosen by the mutual agreement of the
parties within thirty (30) days of such written notice. If the parties are unable to agree on a
mediator within such time period, each party shall within fifteen (15) days thereafter designate a
qualified mediator who, together with the mediator designated by the other, shall choose, within
fifteen (15) days of being so designated, a single mediator for the particular dispute or claim.
The results of such mediation shall be non-binding. All negotiations and mediation discussions
pursuant to this Section 17(h) shall be confidential, subject to applicable law, and shall
be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of Federal Rule of Evidence 408
and applicable state rules of evidence. In the event the parties are unable to resolve the dispute
through mediation within forty-five (45) days of selection of the mediator, either Party may bring
such action at law or in equity as it deems necessary or desirable and the prevailing party in such
action shall be awarded any and all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party in
enforcing, defending or establishing its rights hereunder or thereunder, including, without
limitation, court costs and attorneys and expert witness fees. In addition to the foregoing award
of costs and fees, the prevailing party shall also be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees
incurred in any post judgment proceedings to collect or enforce any judgment.
(i) Severability. If any provision of this Guaranty, or the application thereof to
any person, place, or circumstance, shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, unenforceable or void, the remainder of this Guaranty and such provisions as applied to
other persons, places and circumstances shall remain in full force and effect.
(j) No Waiver. No delay or failure on the part of Buyer in exercising any right,
power or privilege under this Guaranty or under any other instrument or document given in
connection with or pursuant to this Guaranty shall impair any such right, power or privilege or be
construed as a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein. No single or partial exercise of
any such right, power or privilege shall preclude the further exercise of such right, power or
privilege. No waiver shall be valid against Buyer unless made in writing and executed by Buyer,
and then only to the extent expressly specified therein.
(k) Legal Representation. Each party has been represented by legal counsel in
connection with the negotiation of the transactions herein contemplated and the drafting and
negotiation of this Guaranty. Each party and its counsel have had an opportunity to review and
suggest revisions to the language of this Guaranty. Accordingly, no provision of this Guaranty
shall be construed for or against or interpreted to the benefit or disadvantage of any party by
reason of any party having or being deemed to have structured or drafted such provision.

the same effect as if all parties had signed the same signature page. It shall not be necessary
that the signatures of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signatures of all persons required
to bind any party, appear on a single counterpart, but it shall be sufficient that the signature
of, or on behalf of, each party, appear on one or more of the counterparts. Any signature page of

____________, 2010 (“Effective Date”), by and among SWF, L.P., a New York limited
partnership (“Guarantor”); HTA -WASHINGTON MEDICAL ARTS II, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“Buyer”); and FIRST AMERICAN TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY (“Escrow
Holder”).
WHEREAS, Buyer and 1375 Associates, L.L.C. a New York limited liability company
(“Seller”) have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated
_______________, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), whereby Seller has agreed to sell and
Buyer has agreed to purchase certain properties and interests in properties on lands more
particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached thereto;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and as additional consideration
under the Purchase Agreement, Guarantor is obligated to deposit in escrow with the Escrow Holder
the Escrow Funds (defined below), for the period set forth herein and for the purpose of satisfying
any Claim (defined below) under the terms of the Guaranty;
WHEREAS, Guarantor and Buyer desire to have the Escrow Holder hold the Escrow Funds for
disbursement to Guarantor and Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Escrow Holder agrees to hold the Escrow Funds and disburse such Escrow Funds to
Guarantor and Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement not otherwise expressly
defined in this Agreement shall have the same meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase
Agreement.
2. Deposit of Escrow Funds. Escrow Holder acknowledges the receipt from Seller of
_________________ Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($____________.00) (the “Escrow Funds”). The
Escrow Funds are the property of Guarantor subject to the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Holder
shall disburse the Escrow Funds in strict accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
3. Deposit Information.
(a) The Escrow Funds shall be deposited in a separately segregated interest bearing account or
accounts (the “Escrow Account”) at a financial institution insured by the FDIC. All

Exhibit K - Page 1
(b) Guarantor’s Employer Identification Number is ______________.
4. Disbursement of Escrow Funds.
(a) Claims. If within 270 days of the Closing Date, Buyer has a “good faith claim” under the
Guaranty (the “Claim”), then Buyer is entitled to a disbursement of the Escrow Funds for
the amount of such Claim; provided, however, the aggregate amount the Buyer shall be entitled to
recover will not exceed the balance in the Escrow Account. At the end of 270 days after the
Closing Date, the funds in the Escrow Account (including all earnings and interest) shall be
disbursed to Guarantor; provided, however, if a Claim has been made and has not been disbursed to
Buyer prior the end of the 270 day period, the portion of the Escrow Funds alleged by Buyer to be
necessary to satisfy any such Claim shall not be disbursed. Buyer shall timely submit any Claim to
Escrow Holder, in writing, setting forth, in detail, the amount of the Claim (the “Claim
Notice”). Buyer shall simultaneously provide a copy of such Claim Notice to Guarantor. The
phrase “good faith” means that (i) Buyer has previously alleged that Seller has breached a
representation or warranty under Section 7 of the Purchase Agreements that survives the
Closing, (b) the Claim has been “finally determined” in favor of Buyer pursuant to the terms of the
Post-Closing Escrow Agreement or Seller has approved the Claim and (c) the Holdback has been
depleted.
(c) If Escrow Holder receives a Claim Notice from Buyer within 270 days of the Closing Date,
Escrow Holder shall disburse the amount set forth in the Claim from the Escrow Funds to Buyer,
within three (3) business days of the receipt of such Claim Notice.
(d) If Escrow Holder does not receive a Claim Notice from Buyer within 270 days of the Closing
Date, Escrow Holder shall, within three (3) business days of the expiration of such 270 day period,
disburse the balance of the Escrow Account (including all earnings and interest on the Escrow
Funds) to Guarantor in the manner directed by Guarantor.
5. Third Party Claims. The Escrow Funds shall not be disbursed by Escrow Holder for
any Claim which arises from a claim by a third party when that claim has been settled by or on
behalf of Buyer without Guarantor’s written approval, provided such written approval has not been
unreasonably withheld.
6. Liability and Protection of Escrow Holder.
(a) Powers — Generally. Escrow Holder has only the rights, powers, privileges, and
duties expressly set forth in this Agreement, together with those rights, powers, and privileges
reasonably incident thereto, and is not a party to, and is not bound by, or charged with notice of
any agreement other than this Agreement.
(b) Actions on Notice, etc. Escrow Holder may rely upon any written notice, request,
waiver, consent, certificate, receipt, authorization, power of attorney or other document that
Escrow Holder, in good faith, reasonably believes to be genuine and to be signed by the proper
party or parties hereto.
Exhibit K - Page 2
(c) Advice of Counsel. Escrow Holder may rely on the legal opinion of its legal
counsel in the event of any dispute or question concerning the construction of any provision of
this Agreement or its duties hereunder, and shall incur no liability as a result of reliance on
such opinion.
(d) Compensation for Services. Escrow Holder shall be entitled to reasonable fees and
expenses for customary services, as Escrow Holder hereunder, according to its standard rate sheet
for these services and all such compensation shall be paid and shared one-half by Buyer and

rates for such services.
(e) Resignation. Escrow Holder may resign upon seven (7) days prior written notice to
the other parties to this Agreement. Escrow Holder may be removed by the mutual agreement of
Guarantor and Buyer. If Escrow Holder resigns or Guarantor and Buyer agree to remove the Escrow
Holder, then Guarantor and Buyer must use their best efforts to agree upon a substitute Escrow
Holder. If Escrow Holder resigns or is removed and no successor Escrow Holder is agreed upon
within forty-five (45) days following the resignation or removal of the existing Escrow Holder,
Buyer may designate the successor Escrow Holder provided such Escrow Holder must be a title company
with an office in ______________, _________.
(f) Liability — Negligent Acts. Escrow Holder will not be liable for anything that it
may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement, except for acts that constitute
gross negligence, willful misconduct, or constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties.
7. Indemnity. Guarantor and Buyer agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold
Escrow Holder harmless from and against all costs, damages, judgments, attorneys’ fees, expenses,
and obligations or liabilities of any kind or nature that Escrow Holder may incur or sustain in
connection with or arising out of this Agreement, except to the extent due to Escrow Holder’s gross
negligence, willful misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duties arising from this Agreement.
8. Waiver. Neither this Agreement nor any of its provisions may be waived, modified,
amended, discharged, or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties against
which the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge, or termination is sought
