ARTICLE 3

PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS; TITLE INSURANCE

3.1 Sale Subject to. Seller shall convey, and Buyer shall accept, title to the Property, subject only to (a) the Permitted Exceptions and (b) ALTA standard printed exceptions other than those that can be removed by the title affidavit of Seller to be provided pursuant to the terms hereof.

3.2 Title Evidence and Survey.

3.2.1 Buyer acknowledges receipt from Seller of a title insurance report and commitment for an owner’s title insurance policy from the Title Company (collectively, the “Commitment”), and a copy of the Survey. Promptly after the issuance of any updates or revisions to the Commitment, Buyer shall cause copies thereof to be furnished to Seller’s attorney, together with a written statement (a “Supplemental Title Objection Notice”) setting forth any title exceptions that are not Permitted Exceptions (collectively, the “Non-Permitted Exceptions”), appearing on such revisions or updates (the Commitment and any updates and revisions thereto, collectively, the “Report”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall (i) eliminate any and all of the Non-Permitted Exceptions that may be removed by the payment of a liquidated sum of money (“Monetary Liens”) not in excess of $2,000,000 (the “Removal Amount”), in the aggregate (except in the case of clause (ii) below in which case there shall be no monetary limit upon the amount to be paid by Seller for the removal of such Non-Permitted Exceptions), and (ii) (a) remove any Non-Permitted Exceptions voluntarily caused to be filed of record, or consented to or approved, by Seller, and (b) remove any mortgages, judgments or other liens (including mechanics or other statutory liens) upon the Property created by, consented to or approved by, or as a result of the acts or omissions of Seller. In no event shall Seller have any obligation to discharge, remove or cause to be removed of record any Violations (as hereinafter defined) or to cause to be closed any open permit applications; provided, however, that in connection with any Violations or open permit applications of record as of the Effective Date, Seller shall pay all fines and penalties assessed against the Property by reason of such Violations or applications, unless the cure of such Violations or the closure of any open permit applications is the responsibility of a Tenant pursuant to its Lease. Seller shall have the right to adjourn the Closing Date, from time to time, up to forty-five (45) days in the aggregate for the purpose of removing/eliminating such Non-Permitted Exceptions required to be removed/eliminated pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, if the removal of any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens filed against the Property is the responsibility of a Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Leases, Seller shall promptly deliver a notice to Tenant with respect thereto and shall use reasonable efforts (without the commencement or prosecution by Seller of an action or proceeding against a Tenant with respect thereto) to cause a Tenant to promptly remove or bond such mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien and otherwise perform its obligations under its Lease with respect thereto. Seller shall have no liability, nor shall Buyer be entitled to any abatement or reduction of the Purchase Price or delay or adjournment of the Closing, if such Tenant fails to comply with such obligations under its Lease. Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer a copy of any such notice delivered by Seller to such Tenant.

3.2.2 In the event that there exist Non-Permitted Exceptions which Seller is not required to remove pursuant to the terms hereof and Seller elects, by written notice to Buyer not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, not to remove such Non-Permitted Exceptions, Buyer shall elect within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Seller’s above notice to either (i) not consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force and effect, the Deposit, together with Buyer’s Title Costs, shall be returned to Buyer, and thereafter neither of the parties hereto shall have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder, except as may be expressly provided herein to survive the termination of this Agreement, or (ii) consummate the transactions contemplated

hereby subject to such Non-Permitted Exceptions and proceed to Closing without an abatement of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event there are Monetary Liens, then Buyer shall have the right to receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the aggregate amount of such Monetary Liens up to the Removal Amount. Buyer’s failure to timely make such election shall be deemed an election to proceed pursuant to clause “(ii)” above. In addition, Buyer shall not be entitled to object to, and shall be deemed to have approved, any liens, encumbrances or other title exceptions (a) which the Title Company is willing to omit as exceptions to title at no additional cost to Buyer (or with Seller agreeing to cover any such cost), or (b) which will be extinguished upon the transfer of the Property to Buyer.

3.2.3 If a search of the title discloses judgments, bankruptcies or other similar returns against other persons having names the same as or similar to Seller, Seller, on request by Buyer or the Title Company, shall deliver to Buyer and/or Buyer’s title insurance companies affidavits certifying that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns are not against Seller.

3.2.4 Seller agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver any standard and customary owner’s title affidavit at Closing in the form reasonably required by the Title Company and reasonably approved by Seller.

3.2.5 Any unpaid taxes, water charges, sewer rents, vault charges and assessments with respect to the Property, together with interest and penalties thereon to a date not less than three (3) Business Days following the Closing Date (in each case subject to any applicable apportionment), any Monetary Liens (up to the Removal Amount) and any mortgages or other liens created by Seller upon the Property, which can be, and are required hereunder to be, satisfied by payment of a liquidated amount and judgments against Seller which Seller is obligated to pay and discharge pursuant to the terms hereof, together with the cost of recording or filing any instruments necessary to discharge such liens and such judgments, may be paid out of the proceeds of the money payable at the Closing to Seller. Upon request of Seller, made at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, Buyer shall provide at the Closing separate certified checks or bank checks for the foregoing payable to the order of the Title Company or the holder of any such lien, charge or judgment, or a wire transfer of federal funds as such party shall direct, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the balance of the Purchase Price, as adjusted for apportionments required under this Agreement, at the Closing.

The following shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer with respect to the Property, as of the close of business of the day immediately preceding the expiration or sooner termination date under the “Seller’s Lease” (as defined in Section 8.2) (the “Apportionment Date”), and the net aggregate amount thereof either shall be paid by Buyer to Seller or Seller to Buyer, within thirty (30) days following the Apportionment Date:

(a) All Real Estate Taxes (as defined in the Seller’s Lease) shall be prorated based on the actual current tax xxxx. If such tax xxxx has not yet been received by the Apportionment Date, then Buyer and Seller shall estimate the Real Estate Taxes based upon Buyer’s and Seller’s good faith estimate of the change in the amount of the previous year’s tax xxxx and Buyer and Seller shall after the Closing report the Real Estate Taxes as soon as the actual current tax xxxx is available. All amounts payable for Real Estate Taxes accruing on or prior to the Apportionment Date shall be the obligation of Seller and all amounts payable for Real Estate Taxes accruing after the Apportionment Date shall be the obligation of Buyer. If, by one hundred eighty (180) days after the Apportionment Date, any additional or supplemental Real Estate Taxes are assessed against the Premises by reason of back assessments, corrections to previous tax bills or other events occurring prior to the Apportionment Date, Buyer and Seller shall re-prorate the Real Estate Taxes following the Apportionment Date. Any delinquent Real Estate Taxes on the Premises shall be paid on the Apportionment Date;

(b) water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and electricity, steam and other utility charges, except those required to be paid directly by Tenants and subject to the terms of Section 4.3 hereof.

(c) fuel oil and liquid propane gas, if any, at the cost per gallon most recently charged to Seller, based on the supplier’s measurements thereof taken within five (5) Business Days of the Apportionment Date;

(d) Rents and other revenues derived from the Leases, if, as, and when collected in accordance with the provisions of this Article 4, including Section 4.4;

(e) insurance proceeds received by Seller, if any, and payable to Buyer pursuant to Article 13 hereof to the extent not applied to repair or restore the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement;

(f) charges and payments under any Assumed Contracts or permitted renewals or replacements thereof, and any deposits made thereunder, transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, as identified on Schedule 5.1.8;

(h) all other operating expenses with respect to the Property to the extent such matters are customarily apportioned in connection with real estate closings of commercial properties located in New York, New York.

4.2 Taxes and Assessments.

4.2.1 If, on the Apportionment Date, all or any portion of the Property shall be or shall have been affected by assessments (including with respect to business improvement districts), that are, or which may become, payable in annual installments, of which the first installment is then a charge or lien or has been paid or if any of the improvements to be paid for thereby are in place or commenced, then, for purposes of this Agreement only, Seller shall pay all installment(s) then due and owing or attributable to the period prior to the Apportionment Date, and Buyer shall pay all remaining installments as the same become due and payable.

4.2.2 To the extent that any refund of Real Estate Taxes, assessments (including with respect to business improvement districts), water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents or any other utility made or received after the Apportionment Date with respect to the Property is applicable to a period before the Apportionment Date, such refund or credit shall be payable to Seller or returned by Buyer to Seller, subject to Tenants having a right to any portion of such refund. To the extent any refund is paid directly to Seller, Seller agrees to promptly pay the same to Buyer to the extent that any Tenants may be entitled to any portion of such refund (whether or not such Tenants are then in default), unless Seller has paid such refund to the Tenants directly and Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from and against any Losses incurred by Buyer arising from Seller’s payment to Buyer of insufficient, or nonpayment of, funds to properly refund all Tenants for periods prior to the Apportionment Date which are entitled to any portion of such refund. In the event any of such funds are paid to

Buyer, Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against any Losses incurred by Seller arising from Buyer’s failure to pay any such funds received from Seller to any Tenants which are entitled to any portion of such refunds.

4.2.3 To the extent that any refund of Real Estate Taxes, assessments (including with respect to business improvement districts), water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents made after the Apportionment Date with respect to the Property is applicable to a period after the Apportionment Date, such refund shall be payable to Buyer or returned by Seller to Buyer, subject to the pro rata reasonable costs incurred in obtaining same and to Tenants having a right to any portion of such refunds. In the event any of such funds are paid to Seller, Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from and against any Losses incurred by Buyer arising from Seller’s failure to pay any such funds to Buyer and to any Tenants which are entitled to any portion of such refunds. To the extent Buyer commences or continues the pursuit of such refunds after the Apportionment Date, Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against all Losses incurred by Seller in the event of any claim by any Tenant that Buyer’s (as distinguished from Seller’s) pursuit of such refunds was inadequate or insufficient.

4.2.4 If Seller has heretofore filed or hereafter files applications for the correction of the assessed valuation of the Property and/or has heretofore instituted or hereafter institutes certiorari proceedings to review such assessed valuations for any prior tax years, Seller shall have sole control of such proceedings and Seller is hereby authorized to continue, at its sole cost and expense, such proceedings, including the right to withdraw, compromise and/or settle the same or cause the same to be brought on for trial and to take, conduct, withdraw and/or settle appeals, and Buyer hereby consents to such actions as Seller may reasonably take therein. Buyer acknowledges that Seller has or shall file an application for the correction of the assessed valuation of the Property for the tax year 2014/2015 and may file an application for any tax year occurring during the term of Seller’s Lease. Except as otherwise provided herein (i.e., rights of Tenants), any tax savings or refund for any year or years prior to the tax year in which the Closing herein occurs and any tax savings or refunds attributable to the period prior to the Apportionment Date, shall belong solely to Seller, except as set forth below. Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall execute all consents, receipts, instruments and documents which may reasonably be requested in order to facilitate instituting or settling such proceeding, as the case may be, and collecting the amount of any refund or tax savings. The net refund of Real Estate Taxes, if any, for such fiscal tax year in which the Apportionment Date occurs shall be divided between Seller and Buyer in accordance with the apportionment of Real Estate Taxes pursuant to the provisions hereof, after deducting therefrom a pro rata share of all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees reasonably and necessarily incurred by Seller in obtaining such refund. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise expressly provided above, Seller shall not have the right to commence or prosecute any tax proceeding affecting the period following the Closing Date and, to the extent Seller is expressly permitted hereunder to commence and/or prosecute any such tax proceeding, Seller shall be required to obtain Buyer’s prior written approval of any settlement, compromise or withdrawal of such tax proceeding which Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold or delay. The parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with any tax proceeding affecting the period following the Closing Date through the expiration of the Seller Lease.

4.3 Transfer of Utilities. Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause the transfer of all utility services for the Property to Buyer’s name as of the Apportionment Date and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in connection therewith. Promptly after Buyer receives a statement of such charges for the period during which the Apportionment Date occurs, Buyer and Seller shall adjust the apportionment made pursuant to Section 4.1(b) above to the extent necessary for Seller to have paid such charges for the period ending on the day immediately preceding the Apportionment Date, and Buyer to have paid such charges for the period from and after the Apportionment Date. Buyer shall make all required deposits on account with utility companies or on account with municipalities and shall cooperate with Seller in having such deposits, which are currently held by such companies and municipalities, returned to Seller, as of the Apportionment Date. However, Seller shall be solely responsible for obtaining the return of its own utility company deposits, if any.

4.4 Rents Received After The Apportionment Date. Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, if Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall receive Rents under the Leases after the Apportionment Date from a Tenant who is in arrears in the payment of Rents as of the Apportionment Date under any of the Leases, the same shall be applied as follows:

4.4.1 first, to Rents due for the calendar month in which the Apportionment Date occurs, to be apportioned through the date prior to the Apportionment Date between Seller and Buyer on a per diem basis;

4.4.2 next, to Rents then due and unpaid for the calendar month(s) after the month in which the Apportionment Date occurs, to be received and retained for the account of Buyer; and

4.4.3 last, to Rents due and unpaid for the calendar month(s) preceding the calendar months described in clause 4.4.2 to be paid to Seller.

The parties agree to remit forthwith the amount of such past due Rents which is collected in accordance with the foregoing. On the Apportionment Date, Seller shall (x) furnish or cause to be furnished to Buyer a statement of prepaid and uncollected Rents under the Leases, if any, and (y) credit or pay to Buyer any such Rents collected by Seller which pertain to any period of time on or after the Apportionment Date. On or before the thirtieth (30^th) day of each calendar month to occur in the period commencing with the month after the calendar month in which Apportionment Date occurs, and ending one hundred eighty (180) days following the Apportionment Date, Buyer shall render an accounting to Seller with respect to Rents allocable to any extent to the period prior to the Apportionment Date. Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, if Seller shall receive Rents under the Leases after the Apportionment Date, the same shall be promptly remitted to Buyer for application in the same order of priority as aforesaid.

4.5 Escalation Rents.

4.5.1 Subject to the provisions of the last sentence of this Section 4.5.1, at the end of the fiscal year with respect to which any Additional Rent is payable under the Leases, there shall be a calculation of the amount of such Additional Rent to which Seller and Buyer shall be entitled pro rata, with Seller being entitled to an amount equal to the amount of

Additional Rent multiplied by a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is the number of days in said fiscal year with respect to which Additional Rent under the Leases was payable prior to the Apportionment Date, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in said fiscal year during which Additional Rent under the Leases was payable, and Buyer shall be entitled to the remaining portion of such Additional Rent, provided that there shall be deducted from Seller’s and Buyer’s shares their respective proportionate share of any reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs and expenses of collection thereof actually incurred. If either party shall have received Additional Rents with respect to the Leases for such fiscal year in excess of the amount to which it is entitled pursuant hereto, such excess shall be paid by the party not entitled thereto to the other party promptly after such calculation to be applied as aforesaid. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.5.1 notwithstanding, if a Tenant is in arrears in the payment of Additional Rent under the Leases as of the Apportionment Date, the provisions of Section 4.4 hereof shall apply.

4.6 Collection of Rents. After the Apportionment Date, Buyer shall xxxx Tenant for Rents as required by the Leases and shall use commercially reasonable efforts (excluding litigation) to collect any and all Rents due pursuant thereto. Seller shall have the right subsequent to the Apportionment Date to bring a legal proceeding against Tenants no longer in possession to enforce collection of past due Rents owed to Seller by Tenant. Nothing in this Section 4.6 or any other provision of this Agreement shall be construed as an agreement on the part of Buyer to refrain from its right to terminate the Leases after the Apportionment Date pursuant to its terms.

4.7 Security Deposits. From and after the Effective Date, Seller’s application of any Security Deposits shall be limited by the provisions of Section 5.1.4 hereof. At least thirty (30) days prior to the Apportionment Date, Seller shall furnish Buyer with a schedule certifying the unapplied portion of any Security Deposits which both are held by Seller and shall have been theretofore deposited by Tenants and Seller shall, within thirty (30) days following the Apportionment Date, pay to Buyer, or credit Buyer with, the aggregate amount of such unapplied deposits set forth on such schedule, together with all interest, if any, earned thereon and on deposit and required to be paid to Tenants. Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller free and harmless from any liability to Tenants with respect to Buyer’s holding any such Security Deposits transferred to and received by Buyer. Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer free and harmless from any liability to a Tenant with respect to any Security Deposits which Seller failed to deliver to Buyer.

4.8 Transfer Taxes. Seller shall be responsible for all real property and real estate transfer taxes imposed by New York State and New York City in connection with the recording of the deed to the Property and the sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance of the Property to Buyer as contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”). Seller may pay the Transfer Taxes, if any, from the balance of the Purchase Price paid at the Closing.

4.9 Tax Returns. At the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall deliver to the Title Company the returns, questionnaires, certificates, affidavits and other documents required in connection with the payment of the Transfer Taxes (collectively, the “RE Tax Returns”). If the procedures required by New York State and/or New York City require that any RE Tax Returns

be filed, reviewed or approved prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall complete, sign and swear to the RE Tax Returns and deliver same to the Title Company for delivery to the appropriate authority sufficiently in advance of the Closing Date so as to permit the sale contemplated hereby to be consummated by the Closing Date.

4.10 Intentionally Omitted.

4.11 Transaction Expenses. Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of (i) Buyer’s legal fees, (ii) any third party professional and consulting fees incurred by Buyer, (iii) any escrow fees, (iv) the cost of updating or recertifying the Survey, if Buyer requests the same, (v) the cost of the owner’s title insurance policy and any lender’s title policy, if applicable, (vi) the cost of all endorsements, extended coverage, or upgrades to Buyer’s or any lender’s title insurance policy, if applicable, (vii) the cost of any financing obtained by Buyer in connection with the transaction contemplated herein, including, without limitation, any mortgage recordation taxes and (viii) all recording and filing fees, including, but not limited to, those in connection with the Deed. Except as expressly provided herein, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses, including attorney, accountant and other consultant fees, in connection with the execution and negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller shall pay the cost of recording or filing any documents required to be recorded or filed in order to deliver title to the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4.12 Estimation of Prorations; Errors. In any case where sufficient information is not available at the Apportionment Date to make an accurate proration, Seller and Buyer shall reasonably estimate the proration at the Apportionment Date and shall make a recalculation of the apportionment of the same as soon as the necessary information becomes available, at which xxxx Xxxxxx or Buyer, as the case may be, promptly shall make an appropriate payment to the other based upon such recalculation; provided, however, all prorations described in this Article 4 shall become final as of the close of business six (6) months after the Apportionment Date, whether or not such information becomes available, except with regard to any and all adjustments for Real Estate Taxes and assessments, as referred to in Sections 4.2.1 and 4.5.1 of this Agreement, which shall be handled in accordance with the terms of said Sections.

4.13 Survival. The provisions of this Article 4 and the parties’ obligations hereunder shall survive the Closing and the Apportionment Date.

ARTICLE 5

COVENANTS REGARDING THE PROPERTY

5.1 Maintenance of the Property.

5.1.1 Between the Effective Date and the Closing (a) Seller shall maintain and operate the Property in substantially the same manner as the Property is currently being maintained and operated (reasonable wear and tear excepted) (it being agreed that Seller shall not be obligated to perform any capital expenditures or other expenditures, unless required by Law or as otherwise provided herein), including maintenance of substantially the same levels of

existing casualty and liability insurance as may exist as of the Effective Date with respect to the Property, (b) Seller shall not construct any capital improvements upon the Property except for those made in the ordinary course of maintaining and/or operating the Property or pursuant to a Lease or which are necessary because of emergency situations or to bring the Property into compliance with applicable Laws; (c) Seller shall not make nor consent to the making of any alterations, renovations, additions or the like to the Property except for those made in the ordinary course of operating the Property or pursuant to a Lease or which are necessary because of emergency situations or to bring the Property into compliance with applicable Laws; (d) Seller shall not sell, assign, or otherwise transfer any air or development rights in the Property; (e) Seller shall not submit any application relating to, or otherwise sell, encumber or transfer any rights relating to, zoning, rezoning or other land use matter for the Property without Buyer’s express written consent; and (f) Seller shall not (i) voluntarily subject the Property to any additional liens, encumbrances, covenants or easements (unless required by Governmental Authority), (ii) consent in writing to any change to the zoning or use classification of the Property, or (iii) sell, pledge, or grant any option, right of first refusal or right of first offer with respect to the Property or Seller’s interest therein. Ordinary wear and tear is excepted from any obligations of Seller hereunder and the provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2 shall govern with respect to any events of casualty or condemnation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Seller would be permitted to take any of the actions described above under the express terms of the Seller’s Lease (even though Seller’s Lease is not then effective), then the provisions in the Seller’s Lease shall control. Between the Closing Date and the expiration date of the Seller’s Lease, Seller shall operate and maintain the Property as provided in the Seller’s Lease.

5.1.2 Seller does not guarantee, represent or warrant to Buyer that any of the Leases will be in effect on the Closing Date or whether or not any Tenant shall be in full compliance with the terms of its respective Lease. Further, Buyer acknowledges that whether or not the Leases are in effect or Tenants are in compliance with their respective terms shall not be a condition to Closing.

5.1.3 Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, any new lease, renewal, extension, sublease, or other occupancy transaction shall not be entered into without the prior written consent of Buyer in each instance, (such lease, renewal, extension, sublease, or amendment shall be known as a “New Lease”).

5.1.4 Except as set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall not apply any Security Deposits on account of any rental due or to become due under the Leases other than in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Lease, between the Effective Date and the date of Closing; absent an express provision in the Leases to the contrary, Seller shall not return any such Security Deposits to Tenant thereunder with respect to the Leases unless Tenant shall have actually vacated the Property and the conditions relating thereto under the Lease have been satisfied. In the event that Tenant shall be in default of any monetary obligation under the Leases beyond the expiration of any applicable notice or cure period between the Effective Date and the date of Closing, Seller shall have the right to apply any Security Deposits under the Leases to cure any such default(s), provided that Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold Buyer

harmless from and against any claim by such Tenant that Seller wrongfully appropriated and/or applied such sums (such obligation to survive the Closing).

5.1.5 Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall not, except as hereinafter expressly provided, without Buyer’s express written consent, (a) modify or otherwise change in any manner any of the material terms, covenants or conditions of the Leases; (b) accept an early surrender or consent to the early termination or cancellation of the Leases; (c) grant any concession or rent abatement to a Tenant for any period following the Apportionment Date unless expressly provided for under the presently existing terms of the Leases; or (d) commit to do any new work, repairs, replacements or other improvement work for Tenant under the Leases unless required by the terms of the Lease or a New Lease.

5.1.6 Intentionally Omitted.

5.1.7 With respect to any matter to be submitted to Buyer for its consent pursuant to this Article 5, Buyer shall consent or refuse to consent, which consent may be withheld upon and subject to the terms hereof, in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Buyer of Seller’s request for consent and all related materials (including, if applicable, a copy of any broker agreements, work letters or other items imposing any monetary or other obligations upon the landlord thereunder) regarding the matter for which consent is being requested, as reasonably requested by Buyer. If Buyer does not consent or refuse within such ten (10) Business Days, then Seller shall have the right to issue to Buyer a second request for consent. The failure of Buyer to timely consent or refuse to consent within five (5) Business Days of such second request shall be deemed consent by Buyer to the matter in question.

5.1.8 Subject to the terms of this Section 5.1.8, at least seventy-five (75) days prior to the expiration of the Seller’s Lease, Buyer may advise Seller in writing which Service Contracts Buyer wants Seller to assign (or caused to be assigned) and which Service Contracts Buyer wants Seller to terminate (or cause to be terminated), and Schedule 5.1.8 shall be marked to reflect same. If Buyer does not so notify Seller by such date, effective as of the expiration or sooner termination of Seller’s Lease, Seller shall assign (or caused to be assigned) to Buyer those Service Contracts that cannot by their terms be terminated by the Seller prior to the expiration of the Seller Lease and listed on Schedule 5.1.8 hereto (the “Assumed Contracts”). All other Service Contracts (the “Unassumed Contracts”) shall be terminated effective upon the expiration of the Seller’s Lease at Seller’s expense. Buyer acknowledges that, prior to the Closing and during the term of Seller’s Lease, Seller may substitute certain of the Service Contracts on Schedule 5.1.8, provided that any new Service Contract shall be terminable upon no more than 30 days’ notice, at no cost to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (a) not all Assumed Contracts may be freely assignable by Seller (or its managing agent), and may require the consent of the counterparties thereto (the “Contract Counterparties”) and (b) certain of the Service Contracts may cover other properties owned by Seller and Seller may determine not to assign (or cause to be assigned) such Service Contracts to Buyer, and any such Service Contracts Seller determines not to assign shall be deemed Unassumed Contracts. To the extent that consent of any Contract Counterparties to the assignment and assumption of an Assumed Contact shall be necessary, Seller agrees that it shall request such consent from the subject Contract Counterparties, provided however, that Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (A) Seller shall have no obligation to incur any expense or

liability, or grant any financial or contractual concession, in connection with obtaining the consent from any of the Contract Counterparties, and (B) in the event that, as of the Apportionment Date, any of the Contract Counterparties fails or refuses to grant consent, if necessary, to the assignment of its Assumed Contract, said Assumed Contract shall automatically be deemed to be an Unassumed Contract. Provided that the Closing occurs hereunder, Seller shall terminate (or cause to be terminated) such Unassumed Contracts effective as of the Apportionment Date, and if an Unassumed Contract cannot be terminated without the payment of a termination fee, Seller shall be responsible for the payment of the termination fee that shall be payable thereunder. This Section shall survive the Closing and the Apportionment Date.

5.1.9 Seller has apprised Buyer of the presence of Bargaining Unit Employees at the Property. Nothing in this Agreement, or in this Section 5.1.9, obligates Buyer to assume any applicable collective bargaining agreement, or to hire any of the Bargaining Unit Employees, unless otherwise required by the new collective bargaining agreement to take effect from and after January 1st, 2015. To the extent Buyer, at the expiration of Seller’s Lease, agrees to hire any of the Bargaining Unit Employees, Buyer shall notify Seller and provide Seller with the names of the Bargaining Unit Employees Buyer will hire, as soon as practicable, and in no event later than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of Seller’s Lease.

5.1.10 Seller shall grant Buyer, its agents, prospective lender, and employees reasonable access to the Property at Buyer’s sole risk, cost and expense. All of such entries upon the Property shall be at reasonable times during normal business hours, after at least 24 hours’ prior notice to Seller, and Seller shall have the right to accompany Buyer during any activities performed by Buyer on the Property. Buyer (i) shall coordinate each such inspection through Seller and Seller’s property manager or on-site staff, and (ii) shall not unreasonably interfere with the rights of Seller’s tenants. Buyer shall defend and indemnify Seller and hold Seller, Seller’s members, officers, tenants, agents, contractors and employees and the Property harmless from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, claims, or liabilities, including but not limited to, mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens and Seller’s attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with Buyer’s entry upon the Property as allowed herein (expressly excluding any matters which are merely discovered by reason of Buyer’s inspections).

7.3 Closing Conditions; Survival of Representations and Warranties. The following are conditions precedent to the obligation of Buyer to close title under this Agreement, any or all of which may at Buyer’s option be waived in writing:

7.3.1 No representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact.

7.3.2 The representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement shall be deemed to be repeated as of the Closing Date and shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date, except as the same may be updated by Seller to reflect any factual change arising after the date of this Agreement. In the event any update of such representations and warranties of Seller results in a material adverse change to the Property and

the rights to be received by Buyer under this Agreement, and Seller does not cure (or does not cause the same to be cured) prior to the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer in such event shall be to terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller given no later than three (3) days after the Scheduled Closing Date and upon such termination, Buyer shall be entitled to receive a refund of the Deposit and neither of the parties hereto shall have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder except those expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement.

7.3.3 At the time of the Closing, the Title Company shall be irrevocably ready, willing and able to issue a title insurance policy with respect to the Property in favor of Buyer subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and such other matters as Buyer has agreed in this Agreement or otherwise in writing to accept the Property subject to.

7.3.4 Neither Seller nor any of the parties comprising Seller shall have filed a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or shall have had an involuntary petition filed against it which has not been answered or stayed within thirty (30) days of the petition being filed.

7.3.5 Seller shall have delivered all of the documents and other items required pursuant to Section 9.1.1 of this Agreement and shall have performed all other material covenants, undertakings and obligations herein agreed to be performed by it, and complied with all material conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Seller at or prior to the Closing.

7.3.6 Seller shall request and Buyer shall accept a tenant estoppel certificate (“Estoppel Certificate”) from the Tenant under the Chase Lease either in the form such Tenant is required to give under the Chase Lease or, if no such form is specifically prescribed, substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1, but Seller shall have no obligation to make any payment or institute any action or proceeding pursuant to the Chase Lease in order to satisfy this Section. As a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to close hereunder, Buyer shall receive at or before Closing an original duly executed and delivered Estoppel Certificate from Chase substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 attached hereto or in the specific form, if any, Chase is required to give under its Lease, which shall in no event be dated more than sixty (60) days prior to the Closing Date. Seller, promptly after receipt thereof, shall deliver the executed Estoppel Certificate to Buyer. If the Estoppel Certificate is not received by Buyer on or prior to the Closing Date, then Seller shall, in lieu thereof and in satisfaction of the obligation to deliver an Estoppel Certificate from Chase, deliver to Buyer a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2 provided the certifications therein (and any adjustments thereto) confirm, and are not inconsistent with, Seller’s representation and warranties set forth in this Agreement (a “Seller Estoppel”). Seller’s certificate shall lapse as to unasserted claims by Buyer after a period of ninety (90) days from the Closing Date. Buyer acknowledges that it shall be required to take title subject to any matter set forth in the Estoppel Certificate provided the certifications therein are not otherwise inconsistent (in a material way) with Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and do not otherwise constitute a default by Seller hereunder.

7.3.7 The representations, warranties and certifications of Seller set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months following the expiration of the Seller Lease, except that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7.1.1 shall

survive the Closing without limitation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that an Estoppel Certificate complying with the requirements of Section 7.3.6 hereof is delivered to Buyer hereunder, any corresponding Seller’s representation and warranty relating to the Lease covered in a Seller Estoppel which is confirmed by such Estoppel Certificate shall, notwithstanding the survival of representations and warranties set forth herein, be deemed to lapse as of the date of receipt thereof by Buyer.

If the foregoing conditions shall not be satisfied (or waived in writing by Buyer), then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit, provided that the condition not so satisfied or waived by Buyer is material in nature given the size and scope of this transaction in that it shall have a material adverse financial impact on Buyer or the Property (unless such financial impact is ascertainable and Seller elects to reimburse Buyer for such amount). For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent susceptible of being cured by Seller, Seller, at its expense, shall cure any immaterial misrepresentation or any immaterial covenant required to be performed by Seller under this Agreement, at Seller’s expense.

7.4 Knowledge of Buyer and Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in this Article 7 shall be untrue or misleading and the same were actually known to Buyer, or, other than the representations set forth in Sections 7.1.2 (a) and 7.2.1 (a)-(d), Constructively Known to Buyer (as hereinafter defined), in each case, prior to the Effective Date, then Seller shall not have made, nor be deemed to have made, such misrepresentation hereunder or otherwise be, nor be deemed to be, in default hereunder by reason thereof nor shall the accuracy and correctness of such representations or warranties be a closing condition hereunder. All references in this Agreement to the knowledge of Seller shall be deemed to mean the actual present knowledge of Xxxx XxXxxxx. Seller represents that Xxxx XxXxxxx is in a position to have actual present knowledge of the matters set forth in Section 7.2.1 hereof. Information shall be deemed “Constructively Known” to Buyer if such information is contained in any due diligence documents or information posted on (and not removed from) the Diligence Website at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Date.

7.5 Limitations on Liability. If Buyer commences a legal proceeding within a period of one hundred eighty (180) days following expiration of the Seller Lease, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines, pursuant to a final, non-appealable order in connection with such proceeding, that (i) Seller was in breach of a representation or warranty as of the date made in any material respect (subject to the provisions of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 hereof), (ii) Buyer suffered actual damages (as distinguished from consequential damages) (the “Damages”) by reason of such breach, and (iii) such breach was not actually known to Buyer or, other than the representations set forth in Sections 7.1.2 (a) and 7.2.1 (a)-(d)), such breach was not Constructively Known to Buyer, in each case, on or prior to the Closing Date, then Buyer shall be entitled to receive from Seller an amount equal to the Damages.

ARTICLE 12

DEFAULTS; REMEDIES

12.1 Buyer’s Default. If Buyer shall (a) fail or refuse to close on the Scheduled Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned) as required by the terms of this Agreement, (b) intentionally breach its obligations under Section 17.4 hereof, or (c) otherwise be in material default hereunder of any of its material obligations, which default under (b) or (c) shall continue for five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof is delivered by Seller to Buyer, the parties hereto agree that the damages that Seller would sustain as a result thereof would be substantial, but would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that in the event of such default, failure or refusal by Buyer, Seller’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit as its sole and full and complete liquidated damages, in which case Buyer and Seller shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those expressly provided herein to survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or diminish Buyer’s obligations or liabilities under Article 11 and Section 17.12 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (but subject to the following sentence), Buyer may cure any breach of this Agreement (other than under Section 17.4) by payment of the full Purchase Price on the Scheduled Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned) and performing all its other material obligations at the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be obligated to (but may) convey the Property to Buyer or to a Buyer Affiliate under Section 17.4 if the representation made by Buyer in Section 17.23.2 is false (whether or not “to the best of Buyer’s knowledge”).

12.2 Seller’s Default. If Seller shall default in any of its material obligations hereunder (and such default shall continue for five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof is delivered by Buyer to Seller) or any material representations herein shall be untrue when made or on the Scheduled Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned) in any material way (and same is not cured), then Buyer shall be entitled either: (1) to terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Deposit and Buyer’s Title Costs and Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket damages (including, without, limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) not to exceed an aggregate amount of $250,000, and neither of the parties hereto shall have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder except those expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement, or (2) to seek specific performance by Seller of its obligations under this Agreement by commencing an action within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the five (5) Business Day notice period

referenced above, it being understood that if Buyer does not commence an action for specific performance within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the five (5) Business Day notice period referenced above, then Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to receive a return of the Deposit, receipt of Buyer’s Title Costs (subject to the terms and conditions of Article 16) Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket damages (including, without, limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) not to exceed an aggregate amount of $250,000, and terminate this Agreement. Buyer expressly agrees however, that Buyer shall not have the right to seek or recover any consequential, punitive or other damages (in excess of the reimbursements described above) or any similar additional sums or amounts by reason of such failure or refusal. Buyer shall have no right to seek specific performance if Seller is prohibited from performing Seller’s obligations hereunder by reason of any law, regulation or other legal requirement applicable to Seller. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or diminish Seller’s obligations or liabilities under Article 11 and Section 17.12 hereof.

ARTICLE 13

CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION

13.1 Casualty. If all or any part of the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty occurring prior to the Closing, whether or not such damage affects a material part of the Property, then:

13.1.1 if the Repair Estimate (as hereinafter defined) is less than or equal to Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000), neither party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the parties shall nonetheless consummate this transaction in accordance with this Agreement, without any abatement of the Purchase Price or any liability or obligation on the part of Seller by reason of said destruction or damage; provided, however, that, in such event, (a) Seller shall assign to Buyer and Buyer shall have the right to make a claim for and to collect and retain (x) any casualty insurance proceeds payable under the casualty insurance policies in effect with respect to the Property on account of said physical damage or destruction as necessary to perform repairs to the Property and/or to rebuild the Property to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the occurrence of such fire or other casualty less (y) any costs incurred by Seller to collect such proceeds and any portion of such proceeds that Seller uses to make temporary or emergency repairs to the Property and (b) Buyer shall receive a credit against the balance of the Purchase Price due at Closing for the unpaid amount of the deductible on such casualty insurance policy. In such event, upon receipt of such casualty insurance proceeds, Buyer shall restore the Property to the condition that existed prior to the occurrence of such fire or other casualty.

13.1.2 if the Repair Estimate exceeds Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000), Buyer shall have the option, exercisable within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt by Buyer of the Repair Estimate as described in Sections 13.2 and 13.3 hereof (but subject to Buyer’s right to object to the Repair Estimate), TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, to terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 16 hereof, and this Agreement shall be deemed canceled and of no further force or effect, and neither party shall have any further rights or liabilities against or to the other except for the Effective Date Surviving Obligations. If a fire

or other casualty described in this Section 13.1.2 occurs, and Buyer does not timely elect to terminate this Agreement, then Buyer and Seller shall consummate this transaction in accordance with this Agreement, without any abatement of the Purchase Price or any liability or obligation on the part of Seller by reason of said destruction or damage and, in such event, (a) Seller shall assign to Buyer and Buyer shall have the right to make a claim for and to collect and retain (x) any casualty insurance proceeds payable under the casualty insurance policies in effect with respect to the Property on account of said physical damage or destruction as necessary to perform repairs to the Property and/or to rebuild the Property to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the occurrence of such fire or other casualty less (y) any costs incurred by Seller to collect such proceeds and any portion of such proceeds that Seller uses to make temporary or emergency repairs to the Property and (b) Buyer shall receive a credit against the balance of the Purchase Price due at Closing for the unpaid amount of the deductible on such casualty insurance policy. In such event, upon receipt of such casualty insurance proceeds, Buyer shall restore the Property to the condition that existed prior to the occurrence of such fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.1.1 or Section 13.1.2, if casualty insurance proceeds or the right to make a claim for and to collect such proceeds under the casualty insurance policies are to be assigned pursuant to Section 13.1.1 or Section 13.1.2, but same shall not be assignable, and/or such proceeds shall be insufficient to repair the Property and/or to rebuild the Property to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the occurrence of such fire or other casualty, then same shall be deemed a failure of a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to proceed to Closing.

13.1.3 The estimated cost to repair and/or restore (the “Repair Estimate”) shall be established by estimates obtained by Seller from independent contractors, subject to Buyer’s review and reasonable approval and the provisions of Section 13.1.4 hereof.

13.1.4 Any disputes under this Section 13 as to the estimated cost of repair or restoration shall be resolved by expedited arbitration before a single arbitrator acceptable to both Seller and Buyer in their reasonable judgment in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer do not agree on an arbitrator within five (5) days after a dispute arises, then either party may request the American Arbitration Association to designate an arbitrator in the Borough of Manhattan, New York. Such arbitrator shall be an independent architect having at least ten (10) years of experience in the construction of first-class office/retail buildings in Manhattan. The determination of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The costs and expenses of such arbitrator shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Each party shall have the opportunity to submit a written report of up to 10 pages in connection with any such dispute.

13.1.5 If the Repair Estimate is not delivered to Buyer at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the then Scheduled Closing Date in accordance with the terms hereof, the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically be extended until the later of (I) the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days following the delivery of such estimate in accordance with the terms hereof and (II) if any dispute is submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 13.3 hereof, then fifteen (15) Business Days following the date of the determination of the arbitrator.

13.1.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty and this Agreement is not terminated in the

circumstances described above, but either (a) greater than twenty-five (25%) percent of the area of the Property is damaged or rendered untenantable or (b) less than twenty-five (25%) percent of the area of the Property is damaged or rendered untenantable but such repair and restoration would not be completed within six (6) months after the Closing, then either Seller or Buyer, upon notice to the other party, may elect not to enter into Seller’s Lease and Buyer may, but shall not be obligated to, repair and restore the Property.

13.2 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or a Material Part (as hereinafter defined) of the Property is taken by eminent domain, Buyer may, by notice to Seller given within ten (10) Business Days after notice to Buyer of the taking, elect to cancel this Agreement. In the event that Buyer shall so timely elect, the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer and this Agreement shall terminate, whereupon neither of the parties hereto shall have any rights or obligations to the other hereunder except those expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement. Unless this Agreement is so canceled, or if less than a Material Part of the Property is taken by eminent domain, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in which event Seller shall, on the Closing Date, and upon receipt of the balance of the Purchase Price, assign and pay over to Buyer any awards and sums of money collected by Seller as an award for any taking by eminent domain, after deducting its reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements in connection with such proceeding. In addition, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any portion of any condemnation award not yet received by Seller. For purposes of this Section 13.2, “Material Part” shall mean shall mean a taking of more than twenty (20%) percent of the floor area of the Building.

13.3 General Obligations Law. The provisions of this Article 13 are intended to constitute an “express provision to the contrary” within the meaning of Section 5-1311 of the New York General Obligations Law. The provisions of this Article 13 shall survive the Closing.

16.2 Duties of the Escrow Agent. It is agreed that:

16.2.1 The duties of Escrow Agent are only as herein specifically provided, and, except for the provisions of Section 16.1 hereof, are purely ministerial in nature, and Escrow Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever except for its willful misconduct or gross negligence;

16.2.2 In the performance of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall (i) be entitled to rely upon any document, instrument or signature believed by it to be genuine and signed by either of the other parties or their successors or as may be issued by any bank or institution and (ii) neither be responsible for, or under, nor chargeable with knowledge of, the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or document executed in connection herewith, and shall be required to act in respect of the Deposit only as provided in this Agreement;

Any assignment by Buyer without Seller’s prior written consent shall be deemed null and void and shall be a material default by Buyer hereunder entitling Seller, at its option, to exercise any of its powers, privileges, rights or remedies under this Agreement or at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 17.4, Buyer shall have the one-time right, without consent by Seller, to assign this Agreement (including the Deposit and all rights hereunder) to a Buyer Affiliate (as defined below), provided that Buyer delivers to Seller notice of such assignment at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing (which notice shall include a representation that the proposed assignee satisfies the criteria for a Buyer Affiliate and the identity of the Beneficial Owners of the Buyer Affiliate to enable Seller to perform its customary searches to confirm that the representation contained in Section 17.23.2 remains accurate), and at or prior to Closing, a fully executed copy of the assignment and assumption agreement. “Buyer Affiliate” shall mean any entity in which Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Al Mirqab Capital SPC (and/or one or more of its affiliates), and QInvest, LLC (and/or an individual investor advised by QInvest, LLC) owns more than 25% of the legal and beneficial interests at the time of the Closing. In the event that Seller consents to an assignment of this Agreement (in its sole and absolute discretion) or in the event of an assignment to a Buyer Affiliate, no such assignment shall relieve the named Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Any Buyer Affiliate shall complete and deliver the Patriot Act Disclosure Form in the form of Exhibit J attached hereto.

17.5 No Press Releases. The parties hereto agree that no press or other publicity release or communication to the general public concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued by any party without Buyer’s and Seller’s prior written approval, unless same is required (i) by Governmental Authorities or (ii) to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided that Seller’s prior written approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as such press or publicity release or communication does not identify Seller. It is understood that the foregoing shall not preclude either party hereto from (a) discussing the substance of the transaction contemplated in this Agreement or any of the terms thereof with its respective attorneys, accountants, professional consultants, prospective investors, prospective lenders or any of their respective counsel or other representatives, or (b) complying with applicable Laws. The terms of this Section 17.5 shall expressly survive the Closing or the sooner termination of this Agreement but shall not survive the expiration date of Seller’s Lease.

If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each

17.18 Not an Offer.
