5. TITLE.

(a) Purchaser has: (i) obtained from Fidelity National Title Insurance Company (“Title Company”) a title insurance commitment for an owner’s policy on Title Company’s most current form (the “Commitment”) in respect of the Real Property; and (ii) obtained from Boro Land Surveying (the “Surveyor”) a survey of the Real Property prepared by Surveyor and dated November 13, 2013 (the “Survey”).

(b) Except as may be otherwise provided herein, at Closing, Seller shall deliver, and Purchaser shall accept, at Closing the Real Property subject only to the matters listed on Exhibit “G-1” attached hereto (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that Purchaser has objected to (i) title exceptions 5, 7, 8.c and 8.d set forth in Schedule B of the Title Commitment and (ii) the Environmental Control Board Judgments referenced at the end of title exception 8 in Schedule B of the Title Commitment, with respect to which Seller shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Title Company at or prior to Closing such documentation (including, without limitation, a title affidavit reasonably acceptable to the Title Company) as Title Company may reasonably require to omit such title exceptions from Purchaser’s title policy. If exceptions to title appear on any update or continuation of the Commitment or any new matters appear on any update to the Survey received by Purchaser (each, a “Continuation”) which are not Permitted Encumbrances, then Purchaser shall notify Seller thereof not later than five (5) business days after the date on which Purchaser receives such Continuation. If Purchaser fails to provide Seller with such notice by the expiration of such five (5) business day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to acquire the Real Property subject to such additional

exceptions to title (other than with respect to Mandatory Cure Exceptions (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Agreement: (x) the term “Monetary Objections” shall mean: (1) any mortgage, deed to secure debt, deed of trust, security interest, financing statement or similar security instrument entered into by Seller encumbering all or any portion of the Property; (2) any mechanic’s or materialman’s lien shown on the Commitment or any Continuation and relating to work performed at or in connection with the Property which was performed at the direction of Seller; (3) the lien of ad valorem real or personal property taxes, assessments and governmental charges affecting all or any portion of the Property which are delinquent; and (4) any judgment of record against Seller which is a lien against the Property; and (y) the term “Mandatory Cure Exceptions” shall mean, collectively, Monetary Objections and any other exceptions (including, without limitation, any violations) resulting from Seller’s acts which can be removed by payment of a liquidated sum, it being agreed by the Parties that the violations referenced on Exhibit “G-2” attached hereto shall not be deemed Mandatory Cure Exceptions or have been paid prior to the Effective Date.

(i) If Purchaser timely notifies Seller of exceptions to title shown on the Continuation which are neither Permitted Encumbrances nor Mandatory Cure Exceptions (“Continuation Exceptions”), then Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to eliminate such Continuous Exceptions.

(ii) If Seller is unable to remove a Continuation Exception and, accordingly, is unable to convey title to the Real Property in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) business days after its receipt of notice from Purchaser of such Continuation Exception. No later than five (5) business days after receipt of such notice from Seller, Purchaser shall elect by written notice to Seller to either: (x) purchase the Property without abatement of the Purchase Price and accept title to the Property subject to such exceptions; or (y) terminate this Agreement, in which event Seller and Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver the Deposit to Purchaser; provided, however, in no event may Purchaser terminate this Agreement if the Continuation Exception is a governmental violation which cannot be removed by payment of a liquidated sum (subject, however, to Paragraph 9(f) hereof). Upon Purchaser’s receipt of the Deposit, this Agreement shall terminate and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for Surviving Obligations (as defined in Paragraph 22 hereof). If Purchaser shall not notify Seller of such election within such five (5) business day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected clause (y) above. If Seller elects to remove a Continuation Exception, it shall complete the removal thereof prior to Closing, subject to Seller’s right to adjourn the Closing, if necessary, pursuant to Paragraph 5(f) hereof.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Seller shall in all events be obligated to remove, or cause to be removed, the Mandatory Cure Exceptions, and Seller’s failure to do so shall constitute a material breach hereunder, for which Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise any and all remedies available to it hereunder, including, without limitation, specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder.

(d) If the Commitment discloses judgments, bankruptcies or similar returns against persons or entities having names the same as or similar to that of Seller but which returns are not against Seller, then Seller shall, on request, deliver to Purchaser or Title Company

affidavits reasonably acceptable to Title Company, to the effect that such judgments, bankruptcies or returns are not against Seller, in form and substance sufficient to permit removal of such judgments, bankruptcies or returns as exceptions in Purchaser’s title policy.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Paragraph 5, Seller may, at its option in lieu of satisfying any obligation to remove an exception that is not a Permitted Encumbrance, deposit with Title Company such amount of money and/or provide such documentation, affidavits and indemnities as may be reasonably determined by Title Company as being sufficient to induce it to insure Purchaser against collection of such liens and/or encumbrances, including interest and penalties, out of or against the Property so long as it would be customary for a title company issuing title in New York City to remove or insure over such liens and/or encumbrances. Any such liens and/or encumbrances which are removed as provided in this Paragraph 5(e) shall not be objections to title. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Title Company or any title company selected to co-insure Purchaser’s title policy is unwilling to insure over any exception that is not a Permitted Encumbrance on terms which other nationally recognized title companies customarily require to insure over such exceptions (it being understood and agreed that Seller shall provide such escrows, bonds and/or indemnities as customarily required to insure over such exceptions), then Seller shall have the right to cause another nationally recognized title insurance company doing business in the State of New York (in place of the Title Company) to insure title in accordance with this Paragraph 5 and other applicable provisions of this Agreement, on terms reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser and at no additional cost to Purchaser.

(f) Seller shall be entitled to one or more adjournments of the Closing Date, not to exceed sixty (60) days in the aggregate, time being of the essence, to remove any exceptions to title which Seller is obligated to remove under this Agreement or which Seller elects to attempt, but is not obligated, to remove under this Agreement.

(g) If, on the date of Closing, the Property is affected by any Mandatory Cure Exceptions, Seller shall, at or prior to Closing: (i) make the payments required hereby; and (ii) execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) all instruments in recordable form sufficient to satisfy such Mandatory Cure Exceptions (and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to Title Company for the issuance of Purchaser’s title policy) and pay any applicable recording and/or filing fees; provided, however, that Seller shall not be in default hereunder with respect to notes or notices of violations issued by governmental authorities if despite Seller’s commercially reasonable efforts, such notes or notices of violations are not removed from the public records at or prior to Closing but Seller has made the required payments and has provided the Title Company with reasonable proof of payment to, and receipt thereof by, the applicable governmental authorities with respect to such notes or notices of violations. Upon the request of Seller delivered to Purchaser not less than three (3) business days prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall provide at Closing separate checks or wire transfers as requested, aggregating no more than the amount of the balance of the Purchase Price (as adjusted for the apportionments provided in this Agreement), to facilitate the satisfaction of any such Mandatory Cure Exceptions.

6. POSSESSION. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall accept, possession of the Property from Seller at the time of Closing subject to the Xxxx Lease and subject to the Club Tenant’s right to occupy the Initial Club Premises pursuant to the terms of the Initial Lease, and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and thereafter, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive any rents, issues and profits of the Property for its own use.

7. RISK OF LOSS AND CONDEMNATION.

(a) Seller assumes the risk of any loss or damage to the Property beyond ordinary wear and tear until the Closing Date. Between the Effective Date and Closing Date, Seller shall give Purchaser prompt written notice of any fire or other casualty occurring at the Property. If prior to Closing all or any portion of the Improvements are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty that permits Seller to terminate the Xxxx Lease pursuant to the express terms thereof, then Seller shall request Purchaser’s written approval to terminate the Xxxx Lease. If, however, Seller does not have the right to terminate the Xxxx Lease by reason of the occurrence of such fire or other casualty, then Seller shall request Purchaser’s written approval to: (1) terminate the Xxxx Lease pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment; and (2) pay the Termination Payment (as such term is defined in Paragraph 15(e)(ii) hereof) pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment and Paragraph 15(e)(ii) of this Agreement. In either case: (i) Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of such termination; and (ii) Seller and Purchaser shall, subject to the terms of the Xxxx Lease, mutually agree upon the effective date of termination. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if the effective date of termination occurs after the Closing Date, then: (x) Seller shall be required to deliver at Closing the Confirming Tenant Estoppel or Seller Certificate (as such terms are defined in Paragraph 12(e) hereof) (with such applicable modifications as may be agreed upon by the Parties) and all other documents in respect of the Xxxx Lease set forth in Paragraph 4(a) above; and (y) provided that the Xxxx Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment (rather than the casualty provisions in the Xxxx Lease), Seller shall deliver in escrow to the Escrow Agent the Termination Payment Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 15(e)(ii) of this Agreement.

(b) If prior to Closing all or any portion of the Improvements are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, the Parties shall, whether or not the Xxxx Lease is terminated following such fire or other casualty, proceed to Closing and, at Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser, by written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser, all of Seller’s interest in and to the insurance proceeds on account of such damage or destruction and shall deliver to Purchaser any such insurance proceeds actually received by Seller (less an amount equal to any expenses and costs reasonably and actually incurred by Seller to obtain the proceeds and/or to repair or restore the Property) without any change in the Purchase Price or in any other terms and conditions hereof and allow as a credit against the Purchase Price, an amount equal to the amount of the deductible of any such insurance policy. The proceeds of rent interruption insurance, if any, shall be appropriately apportioned between Seller and Purchaser on the Closing Date. Seller shall have the right to negotiate, compromise or contest the obtaining of any insurance proceeds, but any settlement of the amount of such proceeds shall be subject to Purchaser’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Seller shall give Purchaser prompt written notice of any actual or threatened condemnation of all or any portion of the Real Property of which Seller obtains actual knowledge. If, prior to Closing, all or any “material portion” (as hereinafter defined) of the Real Property shall be condemned or taken as the result of the exercise of the power of eminent

domain, then the Deposit promptly shall be returned to Purchaser and this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force or effect, except that Escrow Agent shall release to Purchaser the Deposit in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 19 hereof, and except for Surviving Obligations. If prior to Closing, less than all or any “material portion” of the Real Property shall be so condemned or taken, and Purchaser, in its reasonable judgment, shall determine that: (i) the remaining portion of the Real Property is not suitable for its intended use of, or business operations on, the Real Property, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement without further liability hereunder on the part of either Party except that Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit promptly to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 19 hereof, and except for Surviving Obligations; or (ii) the remaining portion of the Real Property is suitable for its intended use of, or business operations on, the Property, then Purchaser and Seller shall proceed to Closing, without any change in the Purchase Price, shall have the right to participate jointly in the condemnation proceedings and the proceeds thereof shall belong to Seller, but Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to said proceeds unless such condemnation proceedings shall be pending on the Closing Date, in which event there shall be no such credit and, at Closing, Seller shall assign all of its rights and interest in said proceeds to Purchaser by written instrument in form and substance acceptable to the Parties (upon which Seller shall have no further right to participate in the condemnation proceedings). Purchaser shall make its election either to terminate this Agreement or proceed to Closing within ten (10) days after receipt of Seller’s notice to Purchaser of any such proceedings. If Purchaser shall fail to so notify Seller within said ten (10) day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed conclusively to have elected to terminate this Agreement. For purposes of this Paragraph 7(c), the term “material portion” shall mean: (A) more than fifteen (15%) percent of the aggregate lot area of the Land; or (B) the permanent denial of access to any street adjacent to the Real Property.

(d) The Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Paragraph 7, and not Section 5-1311 of the New York State General Obligations Law, shall govern the rights and obligations of the Parties.

Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that having been given the opportunity to inspect the Property, Purchaser is relying and shall rely solely on its own investigation of the Property and not on any information provided or to be provided by Seller except as otherwise set forth herein, and agrees to accept the Property at Closing in the condition which Seller is required to deliver the Property hereunder and waive all objections or claims against Seller arising from or related to the Property or to any Hazardous Materials on the Property, except with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty set forth herein. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that any information provided or to be provided with respect to the Property was obtained from a variety of sources and that Seller has not made any independent investigation or verification of such information and makes no representations as to the accuracy, truthfulness or completeness of such information except with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty set forth herein. Seller is not liable or bound in any manner by any verbal or written statement, representation or information pertaining to the Property, or the operation thereof, furnished by any real estate broker, contractor, agent, employee, servant or other person except with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty set forth herein. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that to the maximum extent permitted by law, it is purchasing the Property on an “AS IS”, “WHERE IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” basis. The provisions of this Paragraph 9 shall survive Closing or any termination hereof.

(b) “Hazardous Materials” shall mean any substance which is or contains: (i) any “hazardous substance” as now or hereafter defined in §101(14) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 X.X.X. §0000 et seq.) or any regulations promulgated thereunder, “CERCLA”; (ii) any “hazardous waste” as now or hereafter defined in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (42 X.X.X. §0000, et seq.) or regulations promulgated thereunder, “RCRA” or in any other applicable state or local law, ordinance, rule or regulation; (iii) any substance regulated by the Toxic Substances Control Act (15 U.S.C. §2601 et seq.) or in any other applicable state or local law, ordinance, rule or regulation; (iv) any gasoline, diesel fuel, or other petroleum hydrocarbons; (v) any asbestos and asbestos containing materials, in any form, whether friable or non friable; (vi) any polychlorinated biphenyls; (vii) any radon gas; or (viii) any additional substances or materials which now are or hereafter shall be classified or considered to be hazardous or toxic under Environmental Requirements (as defined in Paragraph 9(c) hereof), or the common law, or any other applicable laws relating to the Property.

(d) By proceeding with this transaction, Purchaser shall be deemed to have made its own independent investigation of the Property, and the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Property as Purchaser deems appropriate. Accordingly, subject to a claim for the breach of any of the representations and warranties of Seller, whether set forth herein or in any document delivered in connection with Closing, or any other breach of this Agreement or any other agreement to be delivered in connection with Closing, which claim(s) (subject to Seller’s limitation of liability hereunder) is expressly reserved to Purchaser, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and all of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, members, partners, representatives and affiliated entities (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies Releasors now or hereafter may have against Seller, Seller’s affiliates, Seller’s investment advisors, the partners, trustees, beneficiaries, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives of each of them,

and their respective heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns (the “Seller Parties”), whether known or unknown, which may arise from or be related to: (a) the physical condition, quality, quantity and state of repair of the Property and the prior management and operation of the Property; (b) the Property’s compliance or lack of compliance with any federal, state or local laws or regulations; and (c) any past, present or future presence or existence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Property or with respect to any past, present or future violation of any Environmental Requirements now or hereafter enacted, regulating or governing the use, handling, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials, including, without limitation, (i) any and all rights and remedies Releasors now or hereafter may have pursuant to any Environmental Requirements and (ii) any and all claims, whether known or unknown, now or hereafter existing, with respect to the Property under any Environmental Requirements; provided, however (subject to Seller’s limitation of liability hereunder), that Seller is not released by the foregoing for any claim based upon a breach of any of Seller’s warranties, breach of any covenant or indemnity which survives Closing, whether set forth herein or in any document delivered in connection with Closing, or any other breach of this Agreement or any other agreement to be delivered in connection with Closing, or resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or acts of fraud of Seller.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to claims for the breach of any of Seller’s warranties, a breach of any covenant or indemnity, whether set forth herein or in any other agreement to be delivered in connection with Closing, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and the other Releasors, hereby assumes all risk and liability resulting or arising from, or relating to the ownership, use, condition, location, maintenance, repair, or operation of, the Property from and after Closing. Seller Parties shall not be liable for any special, direct or indirect, consequential, punitive or other similar damages resulting or arising from or relating to the ownership, use, condition, location, maintenance, repair or operation of the Property.

The foregoing waivers, releases and agreements by Purchaser, on behalf of itself and Releasors, shall survive Closing and the recordation of the Deed and shall not be deemed merged into the Deed upon its recordation.

(e) Seller shall not be responsible for curing any governmental violations, notice of which hereafter is received, either prior to or subsequent to Closing, nor shall Purchaser be entitled to any abatement, reduction or other modification in the Purchase Price or in any of the other terms and conditions hereunder in the event of the occurrence and/or the receipt of notice of any such governmental violation, provided, however, that Seller shall be required to pay at or prior to Closing any and all judgments, fines, penalties and other liquidated sums entered or assessed by any governmental authority relating to violations arising prior to Closing which are not the responsibility of the Tenant under the Xxxx Lease and which are Mandatory Cure Exceptions.

(f) If any non-monetary violations arising prior to Closing and caused by Seller or its contractors or agents which Seller is not obligated to cure hereunder and which prevents or impedes Purchaser from obtaining demolition permits for the Improvements and/or building permits or certificates of occupancy for any new building to be constructed on the Property, then Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remove such violations within a reasonable period of time following receipt of written notice given by Purchaser to Seller

indicating that such violations have prevented Purchaser from obtaining demolition permits, building permits or certificates of occupancy, as applicable. This Paragraph 9(f) shall survive Closing.

10. ASSESSMENTS. If at the time for the delivery of the Deed, the Property or any part thereof shall be or shall have been affected by an assessment or assessments which are or may become payable in annual installments of which the first installment is then due or has been paid, then for the purposes of this Agreement all the unpaid installments of any such assessment, including those which are to become due and payable after the delivery of the Deed, shall be deemed to be due and payable and to be liens upon the Property affected thereby and shall be paid and discharged by Seller at or prior to Closing or allowed as a credit against the Purchase Price by Seller upon the delivery of the Deed. Unconfirmed improvements or assessments, if any, shall be paid or allowed by Seller on account of the Purchase Price if the improvement or work has been completed on or before the Closing Date. If there are any municipal improvements approved, commenced and/or completed following the Closing Date, the cost of such municipal improvements will be borne by Purchaser.

11. CLOSING OF TITLE. The closing of title herein sometimes referred to as the “Closing”) shall take place on March 31, 2014 (hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date”), at the offices of Cole, Schotz, Meisel, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx P.A., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, at ten o’clock in the forenoon (or at such other location and/or time as mutually may be agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser). The Parties may participate by representative or delivery of documents in escrow with the Escrow Agent or the title company selected by Seller pursuant to Paragraph 5(d) hereof if the Escrow Agent is not the Title Company.

12. FUTURE OPERATIONS. From the Effective Date until Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement:

(a) Seller shall maintain its existing or comparable casualty and liability insurance with respect to the Property;

(b) Seller shall operate and maintain the Property substantially in accordance with its past practices;

(c) Seller shall not, without Purchaser’s prior written consent: (i) sell, encumber or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Property; (ii) enter into any new leases or contracts (to the extent such contracts will be binding upon Purchaser after Closing) for the Property that are not subject to termination or cancellation by Seller without penalty upon no more than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice; or (iii) cancel, modify in any material respect or renew the Xxxx Lease, except as may be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser;

(d) Seller shall not, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, enter into any contracts or commitments with respect to the Property involving any capital expenditure or construction;

(e) Seller shall provide Purchaser with prompt notice of any and all claims, suits and notices of default or other violations given to or received by Seller in respect of the Property, together with copies of all written communications given to or received by Seller in connection with such claims, suits, notices or other violations (provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to provide Purchaser with notice of any general liability insurance claims, or any claims, suits or notices of default or other violations relating to employment and/or workers’ compensation issues, arising from the operation of the health club in the Initial Club Premises prior to the Closing);

(f) Seller shall not remove the Tangible Personal Property from the Real Property except as may be required for necessary repair or replacement, provided that any replacement of such Tangible Personal Property shall be of approximately equal quality and quantity as the removed item;

(g) Seller and Purchaser acknowledge receipt of that certain tenant estoppel dated December 17, 2013 executed by Tenant. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts (and, upon Purchaser’s request, provide Purchaser with reasonable evidence of such efforts) to obtain and deliver to Purchaser not less than five (5) business days prior to Closing a “bring down” estoppel certificate executed by the Tenant, substantially in the form of Exhibit “I” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Tenant Estoppel”) and dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, confirming the matters set forth in the Tenant Estoppel (the Tenant Estoppel, as so confirmed, the “Confirming Tenant Estoppel”). Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds (other than nominal sums) in connection with obtaining the Tenant Estoppel and, provided that Seller uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver the Tenant Estoppel, the failure of Seller to obtain such Tenant Estoppel shall not be a breach or default hereunder or a failure to satisfy of a condition to Closing or otherwise entitle Purchaser to terminate this Agreement (subject, however, to Seller’s obligation to deliver to Purchaser the Seller Certificate pursuant to the following sentence). As of the scheduled Closing Date, if the Tenant has not signed and delivered the Confirming Tenant Estoppel, then Seller shall execute and deliver at Closing a “bring down” certificate to Purchaser, in the form of Exhibit “J” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Seller Certificate”), covering the matters contained in the Tenant Estoppel (which shall be subject to the same limitations on survivability and liability set forth in Paragraphs 8(c) and 8(g) hereof as apply to the representations and warranties made by Seller). The Seller’s Certificate delivered in lieu of the Tenant Estoppel shall be deemed revoked, null and void, if Seller subsequently delivers to Purchaser, within ninety (90) days after Closing, the Confirming Tenant Estoppel which contains substantially the same information as Seller’s Certificate. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(h) (i) if Purchaser notifies Seller of the existence of any Material Monetary Matter (as hereinafter defined) in the executed Tenant Estoppel and Seller disputes in good faith the existence of such Material Monetary Matter, then Seller may: (i) deliver to Purchaser, within five (5) business days after its receipt of Purchaser’s notice, a Seller Certificate which does not reflect such Material Monetary Matter and otherwise confirms the matters contained in the Tenant Estoppel; and (ii) deliver in escrow to Escrow Agent at Closing, pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement among Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent (the form and substance of which shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the parties thereto), funds in the

amount of the contested Material Monetary Matter (the “Material Monetary Matter Funds”). Additionally, if Purchaser notifies Seller of the existence of any Non-Material Monetary Matter (as hereinafter defined) in the executed Tenant Estoppel and Seller disputes in good faith the existence of such Non-Material Monetary Matter, then Seller shall nevertheless be required to deliver in escrow to Escrow Agent at Closing, pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement among Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent (the form and substance of which shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the parties thereto), funds in the amount of the contested Non-Material Monetary Matter (the “Non-Material Monetary Matter Funds”). If the executed Tenant Estoppel reflects the existence of a Material Monetary Matter and Seller fails to (1) execute and deliver the aforesaid Seller Certificate within the aforesaid 5-business day period (in the case of a Material Monetary Matter) and/or (2) deliver in escrow the Material Monetary Matter Funds at Closing, then Purchaser may elect, by notice to Seller to receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the Material Monetary Matter. If the executed Tenant Estoppel reflects the existence of a Non-Material Monetary Matter and Seller fails to deliver in escrow the Non-Material Monetary Matter Funds at Closing, then Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the Non-Material Monetary Matter. The term “Material Monetary Matter” as used herein means a monetary default or other monetary claim relating to the Xxxx Lease which, in each case, would subject the landlord thereunder to any liability in excess of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($500,000.00) Dollars, or otherwise materially adversely affect the rent or additional rent that Purchaser will receive under the Xxxx Lease after the Closing Date. The term “Non-Material Monetary Matter” as used herein means a monetary default or other monetary claim relating to the Xxxx Lease which, in each case, would subject the landlord thereunder to any liability equal to or less than Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($500,000.00) Dollars, or otherwise adversely affect (but not in any material respect) the rent or additional rent that Purchaser will receive under the Xxxx Lease after the Closing Date.

(ii) if Purchaser notifies Seller of the existence of any Material Non-Monetary Matter (as hereinafter defined) in the executed Tenant Estoppel, then: (1) Seller shall not be entitled to furnish the aforesaid Seller Certificate to cure such Material Non-Monetary Matter; and (2) Seller may contest (if Seller disputes in good faith the existence of such Material Non-Monetary Matter) or cure such Material Non-Monetary Matter by giving Purchaser written notice thereof within the earlier of: (A) ten (10) business days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s notice; and (B) the Closing Date. If Seller fails to cure or take affirmative steps to contest the Material Non-Monetary Matter (and, in either case, provide Purchaser with written notice thereof, accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation) within the period set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, or having contested same, fails to resolve such dispute in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser within sixty (60) days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s notice (it being understood and agreed that (I) Purchaser shall have the right to confirm whether the applicable Material Non-Monetary Matter has been cured or otherwise resolved by requiring Seller to deliver to Purchaser a Confirming Tenant Estoppel or other documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and (II) Seller shall be entitled to adjourn the Closing Date up to sixty (60) days in the aggregate, time being of the essence, to resolve any such dispute), then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (in which event the Deposit shall be released to Purchaser and neither Party shall have any further obligation to the other, except for Surviving Obligations). The term “Material Non-Monetary

Matter” as used herein means: (x) any matter adversely affecting the landlord’s termination of the Xxxx Lease pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment; (y) any matter (including, without limitation, a right of first refusal, right of first offer or similar right granted to the Tenant for the purchase of the Property or any portion thereof), evidenced by a document or court order to which Seller is a party or otherwise bound, that prevents the parties from consummating the transaction contemplated hereby; or (z) any written amendments, modifications or supplements to the Xxxx Lease (other than those set forth in Paragraph 4(a) hereof), or the existence of any other non-monetary matter evidenced by a document or court order to which Seller is a party or otherwise bound, that increases in any material respect any material obligations, or diminishes in any material respect any material rights, of the landlord under the Xxxx Lease at any time from and after the Closing. If Seller disputes a Material Monetary Matter and/or a Non-Material Monetary Matter and such dispute is not resolved prior to Closing, then Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with each other in an attempt to resolve such dispute with the Tenant following the Closing. The foregoing obligations of the Parties shall survive Closing.

13. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred by Purchaser without the prior consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion, except that: (i) Purchaser may, without Seller’s consent, (A) assign its rights under this Agreement: (1) in connection with an IRC tax deferred exchange pursuant to Paragraph 38 hereof; or (2) to an entity in which Purchaser and/or its principals or an Affiliate of Purchaser maintains, directly or indirectly, at least twenty-five (25%) percent beneficial interest in, and is a managing member of, such entity, (B) designate an entity (including an entity to be formed after the date hereof in which Purchaser and/or its principals or an Affiliate of Purchaser owns, directly or indirectly, at least a twenty-five (25%) percent beneficial interest in, and is a managing member of, such entity) to be the grantee or transferee under the Closing documents set forth herein; or (C) take title as nominee for Ground Lessor; and (ii) the holders of direct or indirect interests in Purchaser may, without Seller’s consent, assign their interests in Purchaser or any permitted assignee to any of its respective Affiliates, provided that: (x) concurrently with any assignment pursuant to clause (i)(A)(2), Purchaser notifies Seller thereof and of the name and address of the assignee and sends to Seller a true copy of such executed assignment, together with a written agreement by the assignee to assume all of the terms, promises and conditions of this Agreement on the part of Purchaser; and (y) concurrently with any designation pursuant to clause (i)(B) or any nominee arrangement pursuant to clause (i)(C), Purchaser notifies Seller of the name and address of the designee or the Ground Lessor on whose behalf Purchaser is acting as nominee (as applicable). Notwithstanding any such assignment or designation, Purchaser shall remain liable for all of the terms, promises and conditions of this Agreement on Purchaser’s part to be performed hereunder. As used herein, the term “Affiliate” shall mean, as to any person, any other person, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controlling, controlled by or under common control with such person, and the term “control” shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of an entity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Purchaser or any assignee of Purchaser have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement, or to designate an entity to be the grantee or transferee, if such assignee, or its Affiliate, or such designee, or its Affiliate, owns and/or operates a fitness, training, health, sports and development center for men and/or women of all ages (including children).

14. BROKERAGE. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall each pay fifty (50%) percent of the total commission payable to Eastern Consolidated (“Broker”) pursuant to separate written commission agreements only with respect to the sale transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall pay to Broker its fifty (50%) percent share of such commission (“Seller’s Commission Payment”) pursuant to a separate written agreement between Seller and Broker. Purchaser shall pay to Broker its fifty (50%) percent share of such commission (“Purchaser’s Commission Payment”) pursuant to a separate written agreement between Broker and Purchaser. Said commission in no event shall be earned, due or payable unless and until the transaction contemplated hereby is closed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; if such transaction is not closed for any reason, including, without limitation, failure of title or default by Seller or Purchaser or termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, then such commission will be deemed not to have been earned and shall not be due or payable. Except as set forth above with respect to Broker, each of Seller and Purchaser represents and warrants to the other that it has not authorized any broker or finder to act on its behalf in connection with the sale and purchase contemplated hereunder and has not dealt with any broker or finder purporting to act on behalf of any other Party. Seller and Purchaser agree to indemnify and hold harmless each other from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by the indemnifying Party or on the indemnifying Party’s behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby other than the Broker, together with any and all losses, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and expert fees, relating to such claims or arising therefrom or incurred by the indemnified Party in connection with this indemnification provision. In the event that by settlement or otherwise any monies or other consideration is awarded to or turned over as a result of a commission claim, it is the intention of the Parties hereto that the indemnifying Party shall be solely responsible therefor. The indemnification provisions in this Paragraph 14 shall survive the Closing.

15. COSTS AND PRORATIONS.

(a) At Closing, Purchaser will pay the following costs of closing this transaction:

(i) All Deed recordation fees and expenses and all mansion or similar taxes or any other fees or taxes due in connection with the recordation of the Deed and which are not required by statute to be paid by Seller (it being acknowledged and agreed that Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all realty transfer fees and taxes pursuant to Paragraph 15(b));

(ii) All settlement fees and other charges of the Title Company due in connection with the closing of this transaction;

(iii) The premiums, title search fees and all other costs relating to the issuance of the title policy, and any and all special endorsements issued in connection with this transaction, whether pursuant to the title commitment or otherwise;

(iv) The cost of any survey obtained by Purchaser;

(v) The fees and disbursements of Purchaser’s counsel and any other expenses(s) incurred by Purchaser or its representative(s) in inspecting or evaluating the Property or closing of this transaction;

(vi) Any and all charges, fees, costs and expenses in connection with Purchaser obtaining or recording any financing for the purchase of the Property;

(vii) The Purchaser’s Commission Payment to the Broker; and

(viii) Any and all charges, fees, costs and expenses of the Escrow Agent in connection with this transaction.

(b) At Closing, Seller will pay the following costs of closing this transaction:

(i) All realty transfer fees and taxes due in connection with the recordation of the Deed;

(ii) Any fees or charges required by statute to be paid by Seller;

(iii) The fees and disbursements of Seller’s counsel; and

(iv) The Seller’s Commission Payment to the Broker.

(c) All revenues and expenses, including, but not limited to, rents and any other amounts paid or payable by the Tenant, personal property taxes, installment payments of special assessment liens, sewer charges, utility charges and other normally prorated operating expenses paid as of Closing shall be prorated as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date on an “as and when collected or paid basis” and shall be adjusted against the Purchase Price due at Closing; provided that within sixty (60) days after Closing Purchaser and Seller will make a further adjustment for such rents, taxes or charges which may have accrued or been incurred prior to Closing, but not received or paid at that date. If, after Closing, it is determined that any item of income or expense was prorated at Closing in error or on the basis of an estimate, or if it is determined that the Parties failed to prorate an item at Closing which should have been prorated, Purchaser and Seller promptly upon (but in no event later than fifteen (15) days after) discovery of such error, agree to calculate in good faith the proper proration of such item that should have been made, and, if it is determined that either Party is required to pay the other a sum based on such post-Closing adjustment, the Party owing such sum shall pay the same to the other within fifteen (15) days after such amount has been determined by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments and prorations hereunder shall be deemed final on the first (1^st) anniversary of Closing.

(d) General real estate taxes and special assessments relating to the Property payable during the year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. If Closing shall occur before the actual taxes and special assessments payable during such year are known, the apportionment of taxes shall be upon the basis of taxes for the Property payable during the immediately preceding year; provided that if the taxes and special assessments payable during the year in which Closing occurs thereafter are determined to be more or less than

the taxes payable during the preceding year (after any appeal of the assessed valuation thereof is concluded), Seller and Purchaser promptly shall adjust the proration of such taxes and special assessments, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall pay to the other any amount required as a result of such adjustment. This covenant shall not merge with the Deed delivered hereunder but shall survive Closing. If, as the result of an appeal of the assessed valuation of the Property for any real estate tax year prior to (or including) the year of Closing, there is issued after Closing an administrative ruling, judicial decision or settlement by which the assessed value of the Property for such tax year is reduced, and a real estate tax refund or credit is issued, Seller shall be entitled to all such refunds, credits or reductions relating to the period prior to Closing, except to the extent that the Tenant is entitled to a portion of same under the express provisions of the Xxxx Lease. To the extent any tax appeals or protests have been instituted or are pending at and as of Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall execute such documents as reasonably are necessary for Purchaser to assume any such tax appeal or protest and the prosecution thereof with attorneys or consultants reasonably acceptable to Seller; provided, however, that Purchaser agrees to remit to Seller, within ten (10) days after receipt by Purchaser, all refunds or an amount equal to all credits or reductions of real estate taxes obtained in connection with such tax appeal to the extent such refunds, credits or reductions relate to the period prior to Closing, except to the extent that the Tenant is entitled to a portion of same under the express provisions of the Xxxx Lease, and after deducting therefrom Seller’s pro rata share of attorneys’ fees and collection costs incurred in connection with obtaining such refunds, credits or reductions, calculated on the basis of the number of days during the period for which such refund, credit or reduction, was issued that Seller and Purchaser, respectively, owned the Property.

(e) (i) At Closing, Purchaser shall assume and be solely responsible and liable for all Landlord Lease Obligations (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Xxxx Lease, coming due or arising after Closing, including without limitation, those Landlord Lease Obligations accruing or arising as the result of the exercise by Tenant under the Xxxx Lease of any expansion, extension or renewal option contained therein. Purchaser shall indemnify Seller against all costs, claims and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, suffered or sustained as the result of Purchaser’s breach of the covenants contained in this Paragraph 15(e). Seller shall remain responsible and liable for all Landlord Lease Obligations with respect to the Xxxx Lease, coming due or arising prior to Closing. Seller shall indemnify Purchaser against all costs, claims and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, suffered or sustained as the result of Seller’s breach of the covenants contained in this Paragraph 15(e). For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Landlord Lease Obligations” shall mean and include: (a) all unpaid leasing commissions and brokerage fees in connection with the Xxxx Lease or the exercise by the Tenant thereunder of any extension, renewal or expansion option; (b) all unpaid tenant improvement allowances (if any) specified in the Xxxx Lease required to be funded by landlord thereunder, including tenant allowances required to be funded upon the exercise by the Tenant under the Xxxx Lease of any extension, renewal or expansion option; (c) the cost of completing tenant improvements, if any, specified in the Xxxx Lease to be performed by landlord, including tenant improvements to be performed by the landlord upon the exercise by Tenant under the Xxxx Lease of any extension, renewal or expansion option; (d) any “free” rent to the extent the Tenant is entitled thereto pursuant to the Xxxx Lease; and (e) subject to Paragraph 15(e)(ii) below, any termination payment payable by landlord under the Xxxx Lease.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, within seven (7) days after the Closing, Purchaser shall send Tenant a notice terminating the Xxxx Lease pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment. Provided that Purchaser terminates the Xxxx Lease pursuant to Section 5 of the Third Amendment, then Seller shall be responsible for the payment of fifty (50%) percent (“Seller’s Termination Payment Share”) of the total termination payment (the “Termination Payment”) due and payable to the Tenant. At Closing, Seller shall deposit in escrow with the Escrow Agent, using net proceeds from the Purchase Price paid to Seller, the sum of One Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($1,750,000.00) Dollars (the “Termination Payment Escrow Amount”) as and for Seller’s Termination Payment Share, to be held in an interest-bearing escrow account with the Escrow Agent pursuant to an escrow agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “M” (the “Termination Payment Escrow Agreement”). As a condition to the release of the Termination Payment Escrow Amount, Purchaser shall execute and deliver to Seller and Escrow Agent a certification from Purchaser, together with a copy of the termination notice furnished to the Tenant (such certification and accompanying termination notice, collectively, the “Termination Payment Certification”): (a) confirming the Xxxx Lease has been terminated and the Tenant has vacated and surrendered possession of the Xxxx Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Third Amendment and the other applicable provisions of the Xxxx Lease; (b) listing the total amount of the Termination Payment due and payable to the Tenant; and (c) if the termination notice to the Tenant is given by Purchaser after the Closing (rather than by Seller prior to the Closing, subject to Purchaser’s prior written approval), stating that Purchaser furnished the termination notice to the Tenant pursuant to the notice provision in the Xxxx Lease. The Termination Payment Certification provided to Escrow Agent shall be accompanied by: (1) a wire transfer by Purchaser to Escrow Agent of immediately available funds in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the Termination Payment (“Purchaser’s Termination Payment Share”); and (2) wire instructions for the Tenant’s account, or the Tenant’s address, to which Escrow Agent will send the Termination Payment (the Termination Payment Certification and the items listed in clauses (1) and (2), collectively, the “Termination Payment Certification Package”). Immediately following the later to occur of (x) Escrow Agent’s receipt of the Termination Payment Certification Package, and (y) Seller’s confirmation to the Escrow Agent of Seller’s receipt of the Termination Payment Certification or Purchaser’s delivery to the Escrow Agent of a receipt evidencing that Seller was furnished with the Termination Payment Certification, Escrow Agent shall release to the Tenant, without the consent of Seller or Purchaser, funds in the amount of the Termination Payment listed in the Termination Payment Certification. Seller’s Termination Payment Share shall be paid out of the Termination Payment Escrow Amount and any balance shall be returned to Seller by the Escrow Agent simultaneously with the release of the Seller’s Termination Payment Share from escrow. Except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the Parties hereto, Seller’s Termination Payment Share shall not in any event exceed the Termination Payment Escrow Amount. The Termination Payment Escrow Amount shall be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Termination Payment Escrow Agreement. Purchaser’s Termination Payment Share shall be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Termination Payment Escrow Agreement. If the Termination Payment becomes due and payable after the Outside Date (as such term is defined in the Termination Payment Escrow Agreement), then Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within three (3) business days after the date on which Seller receives the Termination

Payment Certification, Seller’s Termination Payment Share. Seller shall indemnify Purchaser against all costs, claims and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, suffered or sustained as the result of Seller’s breach of the covenants contained in the immediately preceding sentence.

(iii) If for any reason the Tenant fails to timely vacate and surrender the Xxxx Premises following its receipt of the termination notice, then Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, cooperate with Purchaser as and when reasonably requested by Purchaser in order to evict or otherwise dispossess the Tenant from the Xxxx Premises. Seller’s cooperation shall be limited to: (a) providing such information and documents in Seller’s possession, custody and control relating to Tenant and the Xxxx Premises as Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time; and (b) making available to Purchaser, upon request, Seller’s current employees and counsel (and using commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Purchaser, upon request, Seller’s former employees and counsel) for meetings, depositions and other applicable proceedings.

(f) With respect to the additional rent attributable to insurance, taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses which are passed through to Tenants under the Xxxx Lease (the “Pass Through Expenses”) which have been billed by Seller to Tenant prior to Closing but which have not yet been collected and are delinquent, such Pass Through Expenses shall be prorated between the parties as uncollected rent as provided in subparagraph (h) below. With respect to Pass Through Expenses which (i) have been billed prior to Closing but which have not yet been collected and are not delinquent, and (i) have not been billed to Tenant as of Closing, Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect such amounts, and upon the collection of same, Purchaser shall remit to Seller an amount equal to that portion of Pass Through Expenses which accrued prior to Closing, after deducting therefrom Seller’s pro rata share of attorneys’ fees and collection costs incurred in connection with recovering such Pass Through Expenses, calculated on the basis of the number of days during the period for which such Pass Through Expenses were incurred, that Seller and Purchaser, respectively, owned the Property. With respect to Pass Through Expenses which have not been billed to Tenant as of Closing, Purchaser shall xxxx the Tenant for same in accordance with the Xxxx Lease. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser reasonably shall estimate the amount, if any, by which the Tenant has overpaid or underpaid its proportionate share of operating expenses and real estate taxes through Closing. If, at Closing, Purchaser and Seller determine that an overpayment by the Tenant exists, Purchaser shall receive a credit in the aggregate amount of such estimated overpayment. If, at Closing, Purchaser and Seller determine that an underpayment by the Tenant exists, Seller shall receive a credit in the aggregate amount of such estimated underpayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties shall perform a final reconciliation after Closing of such Pass Through Expenses in accordance with the other provisions of this Paragraph 15. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall continue to be responsible for the actual amount of any overpayment and Purchaser shall be responsible for the actual amount of any underpayment, to the extent collected from the Tenant. In the event that Seller and Purchaser, after using commercially reasonable efforts to do so, are not able to agree at Closing on an estimated amount of overpayment or underpayment of operating expenses and real estate taxes by Tenant, the Parties shall reconcile the proration of such Pass Through Expenses after the Closing.

(g) Seller shall be entitled to the return of any deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company and Seller shall notify each utility company serving the Property to terminate Seller’s account, effective at noon on the Closing Date. Prior to Closing, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to establish with the applicable utilities companies new accounts in Purchaser’s name, to the extent the accounts for the applicable utilities are not currently in the Tenant’s name or do not relate to utilities exclusively serving the Initial Club Premises prior to Closing.

(h) Upon Closing, Seller shall retain all rights in and to any rents or other amounts due under the Xxxx Lease for any period prior to Closing, but shall have no right to commence any legal proceedings which would, or could, result in the eviction or dispossession of a tenant from the Property. Seller shall retain and shall have the right to seek monetary damages against the Tenant with respect to any arrears. If Seller commences any action for such monetary damages, then: (i) Seller shall give Purchaser prompt written notice thereof and provide Purchaser, upon request, with updates on the status of such action; and (ii) Seller shall discontinue such action upon Purchaser’s request if it interferes in any material respect with Purchaser’s operation and management of the Property. At Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a schedule of all past due but uncollected rents and other amounts owed by the Tenant, if any, for any period prior to Closing. Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts during the twelve (12) month period immediately following Closing to collect and promptly remit to Seller rents or other amounts due Seller for the period prior to Closing, but shall not be required to commence any legal proceedings against the Tenant to collect such rents or other amounts. Purchaser shall apply all rents or other amounts received by Purchaser: first, to costs of collection; second, for the account of Purchaser for any and all amounts due to Purchaser for the month in which such amounts were received; third, for the account of Purchaser for any and all amounts due to Purchaser for periods subsequent to the month of Closing; fourth, for the account of Seller for any and all amounts due to Seller for periods prior to the month of Closing; and the balance shall be retained by Purchaser. In exercising its commercially reasonable efforts to collect rents and other amounts due Seller as herein required, Purchaser, during the entirety of the foregoing twelve (12) month period, shall xxxx and invoice the Tenant owing any such amounts to Seller on a monthly basis, and institute the same “follow-up” actions or programs used by Purchaser to collect delinquent amounts owed by the Tenant to Purchaser.

(i) Any other costs or charges of closing this transaction not specifically mentioned in this Agreement shall be paid and adjusted in accordance with local custom in the commercial real estate market in which the Property is located.

(j) Except as expressly provided herein, the purpose and intent of the provisions for prorations and apportionments set forth in this Paragraph 15 and elsewhere in this Agreement are for Seller to bear all expenses of ownership and operation of the Property and to receive all income therefrom accruing through midnight of the day preceding Closing and for Purchaser to bear all expenses and receive all such income accruing thereafter; provided, however, that if Seller and/or any lender of a loan secured by the Property being repaid from sales proceeds at Closing, do not actually receive, in immediately available funds, and by 5:00 p.m. on the Closing Date, all amounts required to be disbursed to them pursuant to the Closing Statement executed by all Parties at Closing, then all Closing adjustments and prorations shall be

recalculated and made as of midnight on the next business day immediately following the Closing; provided, further, that the foregoing provision shall not be construed to give either Party the right unilaterally and without the agreement of the other Party, to extend Closing beyond the scheduled Closing Date, and the failure of either Party to consummate Closing on the scheduled Closing Date, at the option, and in the sole discretion, of the non-defaulting Party, shall constitute a default hereunder. All of the provisions contained in this Paragraph 15 shall survive Closing.

16. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING OBLIGATIONS.

(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of Seller to close title in accordance with this Agreement is expressly conditioned upon fulfillment by and as of the time of Closing of each condition listed below, provided that Seller, at its election, evidenced by written notice delivered to Purchaser at or prior to Closing, may waive any of such conditions:

If any notice is properly addressed but returned or refused for any reason, such notice shall be deemed to be effective notice and to be given on the date of attempted delivery.

18. DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

(a) If (i) Purchaser shall default in the performance any of its obligations to be performed on the Closing Date for any reason other than a default by Seller under this Agreement or (ii) Purchaser shall default in the performance of any of its material obligations to be performed prior to the Closing Date and, with respect to any default under this clause (ii) only, such default continues for ten (10) days (unless otherwise provided herein) after Purchaser receives written notice thereof from Seller, then Purchaser shall forfeit to Seller all of its right, title and interest in and to the Deposit paid hereunder, and Purchaser shall have no further

liability to Seller (except for the Surviving Obligations). The Parties have agreed that the actual damages suffered by Seller would be extremely difficult or impracticable to ascertain. After negotiation, the Parties have agreed that, considering all the circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, the amount of the Deposit is a reasonable estimate of the damages that Seller would incur in such an event and that the aforesaid payment of the Deposit is liquidated damages hereunder and not a penalty. The provisions of this Paragraph 18(a) shall not limit or affect any of Purchaser’s indemnities as provided in Paragraphs 14, 20 and 21 of this Agreement.

(b) If (i) Seller shall refuse or fail to convey the Property to Purchaser in violation of Seller’s obligations hereunder or shall otherwise default in the performance of any of its obligations to be performed on the Closing Date for any reason other than a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, or (ii) Seller shall default in the performance of any of its material obligations to be performed prior to the Closing Date and, with respect to any default under this clause (ii) only, such default continues for ten (10) days (unless otherwise provided herein) after Seller receives written notice thereof from Purchaser, then Purchaser, as its sole remedies hereunder, shall have the right to: (i) terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit; or (ii) seek specific performance; or (iii) waive such breach or default and proceed to Closing. In the event that Purchaser elects to seek specific performance under (ii) above, Purchaser shall bring such action within sixty (60) days after the scheduled Closing Date, or else such remedy shall be deemed waived; and unless otherwise expressly required pursuant to this Agreement or by applicable law, in no event shall Seller be obligated to undertake any of the following: (1) change the condition of the Property or restore the same after any fire or casualty; (2) secure any governmental permit, approval, or consent with respect to the Property or Seller’s conveyance thereof; or (3) expend any money to repair, improve, remediate or alter the Property or any portion thereof. If Purchaser shall not institute an action for specific performance within sixty (60) days after the scheduled Closing Date, time being of the essence, and Purchaser has not elected to waive such default by Seller, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) above. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any willful act of Seller shall preclude Purchaser from obtaining specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder, then in addition to the remedies described in this Paragraph and the remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise, Seller shall, no later than fifteen (15) days following Purchaser’s demand therefor and delivery to Seller of paid invoices evidencing the costs incurred by Purchaser, reimburse Purchaser for any and all actual costs incurred by Purchaser, in an amount not to exceed Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($500,000.00) Dollars in the aggregate, in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and due diligence costs. The provisions of this Paragraph 18(b) shall not limit or affect any of Seller’s indemnity as provided in Paragraph 14 of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding any limitation of remedies above, if, as a result of a default under this Agreement, either Seller or Purchaser retains an attorney to enforce its rights and prevails in any final judgment, the defaulting party shall reimburse the non-defaulting party for all reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other legal expenses incurred by the non-defaulting party in connection with the default. This Paragraph 18(d) shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

19. ESCROW AGENT.

(a) The Deposit shall be held in escrow by Escrow Agent in one or more interest-bearing bank, federally insured accounts at JPMorgan Chase Bank on the terms hereinafter set forth.

(b) When Closing has occurred, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller.

(c) If Escrow Agent receives a request for the Deposit signed by Seller stating that Purchaser has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall submit (in the manner set forth in Paragraph 17 hereof) a copy of such request to Purchaser. If Escrow Agent shall not have received notice of objection from Purchaser within five (5) business days after Escrow Agent has furnished Purchaser with such request, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller. If Escrow Agent shall receive a timely notice of objection from Purchaser as aforesaid, Escrow Agent promptly shall submit a copy thereof to Seller.

(d) If Escrow Agent receives a request signed by Purchaser stating that this Agreement has been canceled or terminated, or that Seller has defaulted in the performance of its obligations hereunder, and that Purchaser is entitled to the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall submit (in the manner set forth in Paragraph 17 hereof) a copy of such request to Seller. If Escrow Agent shall not have received notice of objection from Seller within five (5) business days after Escrow Agent has furnished Seller with such request, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Purchaser. If Escrow Agent shall receive a timely notice of objection from Seller as aforesaid, Escrow Agent promptly shall submit a copy thereof to Purchaser.

(e) Any notice to Escrow Agent shall be sufficient only if given in the manner set forth in Paragraph 17 hereof and received by Escrow Agent within the applicable time period set forth herein.

(f) If Escrow Agent receives notice signed by Seller instructing Escrow Agent to pay the Deposit to Purchaser, or if Escrow Agent receives notice signed by Purchaser instructing Escrow Agent to pay the Deposit to Seller, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit in accordance with such instructions.

(g) If Escrow Agent shall have received a notice of objection as provided for in Paragraphs 19(c) or 19(d) hereof within the time therein prescribed, Escrow Agent shall not comply with any requests or demands it may have received and shall continue to hold the Deposit until Escrow Agent receives either: (i) a written notice signed by both Seller and Purchaser stating who is entitled to the Deposit; or (ii) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing disbursement of the Deposit in a specific manner; in either of

which events, Escrow Agent then shall disburse the Deposit in accordance with such notice or order. Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person for its refusal to comply with any such requests or demands until and unless it has received a direction of the nature described in (i) or (ii) above.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Paragraph 19(g) above, if Escrow Agent shall have received a notice of objection as provided for in Paragraphs 19(c) or 19(d) hereof within the time therein prescribed, or shall have received at any time before actual disbursement of the Deposit a notice from either Seller or Purchaser advising that litigation between Seller and Purchaser over entitlement to the Deposit has been commenced, or otherwise shall believe in good faith at any time that a disagreement or dispute has arisen between the Parties hereto over entitlement to the Deposit (whether or not litigation has been instituted), Escrow Agent shall have the right, upon notice to both Seller and Purchaser, (i) to deposit the Deposit with the Clerk of the Court in which any litigation is pending, and/or (ii) to take such affirmative steps, at its option, as it may elect in order to terminate its duties as Escrow Agent, including, but not limited to, the depositing of the Deposit with a court of competent jurisdiction and the commencement of an action for interpleader, the costs thereof to be borne by whichever of Seller or Purchaser is the losing party, and thereupon Escrow Agent shall be released of and from all liability hereunder except for any previous gross negligence or willful default.

(i) Escrow Agent shall have no duty to invest all or any portion of the Deposit during any period of time Escrow Agent may hold the same prior to disbursement thereof except in one or more interest-bearing accounts as aforesaid, and any disbursements or deliveries of the Deposit required herein to be made by Escrow Agent shall be with such interest, if any, as shall have been earned thereon.

(j) Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to deliver any instrument or documents to a court or take any other legal action in connection with this Agreement or towards its enforcement, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any action or legal proceeding which, in Escrow Agent’s opinion, would or might involve it in any cost, expense, loss or liability unless, as often as Escrow Agent may require, Escrow Agent shall be furnished with security and indemnity satisfactory to it against all such costs, expenses, losses or liability.

(k) Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error or judgment or for any act done or omitted by it in good faith, or for any mistake of fact or law, and is released and exculpated from all liability hereunder except for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

(l) Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder shall be as a depositary only, and Escrow Agent shall not be responsible or liable in any manner whatever for the sufficiency, correctness, genuineness or validity of any notice, written instructions or other instrument furnished to it or deposited with it, or for the form of execution thereof, or for the identity or authority of any person depositing or furnishing same.

(m) Escrow Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those set forth in this Agreement and shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature, notice, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine, and Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to give any notice or advice on behalf of

any Party in accordance with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. Seller and Purchaser hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and to hold and save Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, cost or expense Escrow Agent may suffer or incur as Escrow Agent hereunder unless caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Closing Date or the date of any earlier termination of this Agreement, Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives (as defined in Paragraph 21 hereof) shall have the right to enter onto the Real Property to: (i) perform non-invasive inspections and tests, all of which shall be upon at least twenty-four (24) hours’ request (which request may be given by email to the General Counsel of Seller); and (ii) show the Property to potential lenders and joint venture partners. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Purchaser have the right to perform any invasive inspections and tests of the Property without Seller’s prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion). Purchaser shall: (A) at all times conduct Purchaser’s inspections and testing of the Real Property in compliance with applicable law and in a manner so as to minimize damage to the Real Property; (B) promptly restore the Real Property to its condition immediately preceding Purchaser’s inspections or testing to the extent any damage is caused by such inspections or testing; and (C) keep the Real Property free and clear of any mechanic’s or materialmen’s liens in connection with such inspections or testing. A representative of Seller shall have the right to be present at all times during such inspections or testing. All inspections shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable laws. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with the activity of the Tenant, or any other entities or persons occupying or providing services at the Property, and shall take all actions and implement all protections reasonably necessary to ensure that the inspections of the Property and the equipment, materials, and substances generated, used or brought onto the Property in connection therewith, pose no threat to the safety or health of persons or the environment, and cause no damage to the Property or other property of Seller or any persons. Any inspections undertaken by or on behalf of Purchaser pursuant to this Paragraph 20 shall be at Purchaser’s sole risk and expense.

(c) Purchaser agrees to provide to Seller, as and when the same are prepared and provided to Purchaser, promptly upon request of Seller and upon any termination of this Agreement, copies of: (i) all environmental, structural, engineering and other reports or studies prepared by outside consultants (other than such reports prepared by or on behalf of legal counsel that are subject to an attorney-client privilege) undertaking inspections of the Property,

or any portion or component thereof or condition affecting the same, for or on behalf of Purchaser (collectively, the “Property Inspection Reports”); and (ii) all non-public materials and documents obtained by Purchaser from Seller (and Purchaser may not retain copies of any such materials and documents). All non-public information regarding or relating to: (i) Seller or (ii) the Property, or the ownership, operation or maintenance thereof, that is obtained by Purchaser during any inspection of the Property, or in any other manner, or from any other source, including the Property Inspection Reports (collectively, the “Proprietary Information”), shall be held, maintained and treated as private and confidential information pursuant to Paragraph 21 hereof. All obligations and agreements of Purchaser contained in this Paragraph 20(c) shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement for any reason.

(d) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Seller makes no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any materials, data or other information, including, without limitation, the Xxxx Lease, supplied to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s inspection of the Property.

(e) Prior to undertaking any inspections of the Property, Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents will obtain and maintain not less than Three Million ($3,000,000.00) Dollars comprehensive general liability insurance with a contractual liability endorsement which insures Purchaser’s indemnity obligations hereunder and which names Seller, as an additional insured thereunder (a certificate evidencing such policy shall be provided by Purchaser to Seller prior to undertaking any inspections under this Paragraph 20). Such insurance coverage shall be maintained by Purchaser until the earlier of: (i) the date that is two (2) years after the Closing; and (ii) the date on which this Agreement is terminated for any reason. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold and save Seller and each of the Seller Parties harmless from any claim, loss, injury, liability, damage or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of: (i) a breach by Purchaser and/or any of the Releasors (as defined in Paragraph 9(d) hereof) of any applicable laws, rules, regulations or ordinances resulting from such inspections, or the agreements set forth in this Paragraph 20, including the failure to restore the Property in accordance with Paragraph 20(b) above; (ii) any access to, entry upon or activity conducted by, or on behalf of, Purchaser or any Releasors with respect to or on the Property, whether or not such access, entry or activity is permitted by, in compliance with or in violation of any applicable laws, rules, regulations or ordinances, or this Paragraph 20; and (iii) any lien, claim or levy, including construction, mechanic’s, materialmen’s and judgment liens, filed or pending against any portion of the Property, or title thereto, by any contractor, sub-contractor or other party having a claim against or through Purchaser or any Releasor (without limiting the foregoing indemnity, Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser’s failure to cause any such lien to be released or bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Seller within twenty (20) days after receipt of written notice thereof shall constitute a default hereunder), unless such claim, loss, injury, liability, damage or expense arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any of the Seller Parties (collectively, the “Indemnity Obligations”). Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Purchaser shall not be liable for the exacerbation by Purchaser or any of the Purchaser’s Representatives (as defined in Paragraph 21) of any existing environmental conditions at, on, beneath or near the Property.

21. CONFIDENTIALITY. Purchaser agrees that, unless Seller specifically and expressly otherwise agrees in writing, all of the Proprietary Information is and shall be deemed and treated by Purchaser and all of the Releasors as proprietary and confidential and neither Purchaser nor any Releasor shall disclose same to any other person except those Releasors and such outside consultants and legal counsel assisting Purchaser with the transaction contemplated herein, and Purchaser’s potential lenders and joint venture partners, if any (the Releasors and Purchaser’s outside consultants and potential lenders and joint venture partners, collectively, “Purchaser’s Representatives”), and then only on a need-to-know basis, and upon Purchaser or Releasor making each such person aware of the confidentiality restrictions set forth herein and procuring such person’s agreement to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be deemed to have violated the provisions of this Paragraph 21 if Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s Representatives is required to disclose any Proprietary Information pursuant to a judicial order or subpoena validly issued and served upon Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s Representatives by a court with competent jurisdiction over the Property and the Proprietary Information which is the subject of such order or subpoena, and Purchaser (to the extent legally permitted and practicable): (i) promptly, and in no event less than five (5) business days after receipt by Purchaser’s or any of Purchaser’s Representatives of such court order or subpoena, delivers a copy of same, together with any notices or other documents which were served on Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s Representatives with such court order or subpoena, to Seller; and (ii) reasonably cooperates, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, in any effort (provided that neither Purchaser nor any of Purchaser’s Representatives thereby is placed in breach of such court order or subpoena) instituted by Seller to prevent such disclosure. In the event the purchase and sale contemplated hereby fails to close for any reason whatsoever, Purchaser agrees to deliver to Seller, or cause to be delivered to Seller, all Proprietary Information in the possession of Purchaser and/or any of Purchaser’s Representatives. Purchaser shall not use any Proprietary Information for any purpose other than to determine whether Purchaser shall proceed with the contemplated purchase, or if the purchase and sale is consummated, in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property post-Closing. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and Purchaser’s Representatives, agrees to indemnify Seller and each of the Seller Parties against all costs, claims and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, suffered or sustained as the result of a breach by Purchaser or any of the Releasors of the covenants contained in this Paragraph 21. All obligations of Purchaser and Releasors under this Paragraph 21 shall be referred to as the “Confidential Obligations”. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the provisions of this Paragraph 21 shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

22. SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS. The term “Surviving Obligations” as used herein shall mean, collectively, the Indemnity Obligations, the Confidentiality Obligations and the indemnities set forth in Paragraphs 14 and 20 hereof, together with all other obligations of the Parties which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

23. ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

Parties and may not be changed, modified, varied or terminated except by a written instrument signed by the Parties or their respective counsel. The Parties agree that, except as and to the extent expressly provided herein or in the documents to be delivered at Closing, the Parties agree that none of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall survive the delivery of the Deed and all such terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be merged into the Deed.

24. BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided herein.

25. CONSTRUCTION. The interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Each of the Parties hereby agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in New York County, New York, in the event of a dispute between the Parties with respect to this Agreement.

26. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Party, at any time and from time to time, shall execute, acknowledge when appropriate, and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such other action as reasonably may be requested by the other Party in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement; provided, however, that the requested modifications shall be ministerial in scope and, without limitation, shall not: (i) modify or alter in any form or manner the monetary obligation of either Party hereto; or (ii) materially increase any non-monetary obligations or materially and adversely affect the rights (monetary or non-monetary) of either Party under this Agreement, as determined by the affected Party in its reasonable judgment. Further, neither Party: (a) shall be obligated to agree in any form or manner, to any additional indemnity agreements or any representations, warranties or guaranties which are not already expressly agreed upon in this Agreement or the documents to be delivered at Closing; (b) shall be obligated to agree to any changes to the environmental covenants set forth herein or in any document to be delivered at Closing; and (c) shall allow others to act as attorney-in-fact for such Party. The provisions of this Paragraph 26 shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

28. WAIVER OF CONDITIONS.

(a) Purchaser and Seller each shall have the right, in the sole and absolute exercise of its discretion, to waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement which are strictly for its respective benefits and to complete Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement which have not been so waived. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any such waiver shall be effective and binding only if in writing and made and delivered at or prior to Closing.

(b) No waiver by either Party of any failure or refusal by the other Party to comply with its obligations hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent failure or refusal by the other Party so to comply.

29. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. PURCHASER AND SELLER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY PURCHASER AND SELLER AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. SELLER OR PURCHASER, AS APPLICABLE, IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY PURCHASER OR SELLER, AS APPLICABLE. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

30. SEVERABILITY. The terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be severable. If any clause or provision herein contained shall be adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by operation of any applicable law, the same shall be deemed to be severable and shall not affect the validity of any other clause or provision herein, but such other clauses or provisions shall remain in full force and effect, unless such provisions shall relate to the Purchase Price or other monies to be paid hereunder. In such event, each of the Parties, on not less than ten (10) days’ notice to the other Party, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on the date specified in such notice, whereupon the Deposit shall be released to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 19 hereof and neither Party shall have any further obligation to the other, except for Surviving Obligations.

After Closing, this covenant shall terminate and no longer be binding on either Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this paragraph shall not apply to any required disclosure of this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby to a governmental or quasi-governmental authority.

33. NO PARTNERSHIP. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the Parties or their successors in interest.

34. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in this Agreement for all purposes and in all instances, whether or not specifically set forth herein.

35. RECORDATION. Concurrent with their execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller shall execute, acknowledge and deliver a memorandum of this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “P” (the “Memorandum”) and of each modification of this Agreement, which shall be recorded by Purchaser at its sole cost, provided that simultaneously with the execution of the Memorandum, Seller and Purchaser execute a termination of the Memorandum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “Q”, to be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent pursuant to an escrow agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “R” (the “Termination of Memorandum Escrow Agreement”).

36. PROPER EXECUTION. The submission by Seller to Purchaser of this Agreement in an unsigned form shall be deemed to be a submission solely for Purchaser’s consideration and not for acceptance and execution. Such submission shall have no binding force and effect, shall not constitute an option or an offer, and shall not confer any rights upon the Parties or impose any obligations upon the Parties irrespective of any reliance thereon, change of position or partial performance. The submission by Seller to Purchaser of this Agreement for execution by Purchaser and the actual execution thereof and delivery to Seller by Purchaser similarly shall have no binding force and effect on the Parties unless and until the Parties shall have executed this Agreement and the Deposit shall have been received by Escrow Agent.

37. BUSINESS DAYS.

As used herein, the term “Legal Holiday” shall mean any local or federal holiday on which post offices are closed in the jurisdiction in which the Property is located.

38. LIKE-KIND EXCHANGE.

(a) Purchaser, at the request of Seller, agrees to cooperate reasonably with Seller so that Seller may dispose of the Property in a transaction intended to qualify in whole or in part as a tax-deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”). In order to implement such exchange: (i) Seller, upon notice to Purchaser, shall assign its rights, but not its obligations, under this Agreement to a third party designated by Seller to act as a qualified intermediary (as such phrase is defined in applicable regulations issued under the Tax Code); (ii) Purchaser shall, and hereby agrees to, acknowledge such assignment and make all payments due hereunder to or as may be directed by such intermediary; and (iii) at Closing, Seller shall convey the Property directly to Purchaser; provided, however, that: (w) Purchaser’s cooperation shall be limited to the actions specifically contemplated by the foregoing sentence; (x) none of Purchaser’s rights or obligations hereunder shall be affected or modified in any way, nor shall any time periods contained herein be affected in any way; (y) Purchaser shall have no responsibility or liability to Seller or any other person for the qualification of Seller’s purported exchange transaction under Section 1031 of the Tax Code other than as a result of Purchaser’s failure to perform the actions specifically contemplated in

this Paragraph; and (z) Purchaser shall not be required to incur any additional expense (unless reimbursed by Seller) or liability (other than to a de minimis extent) as a result of such cooperation, exchange or assignment. Seller hereby agrees to and shall save, defend, indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Purchaser as a result of any such cooperation, exchange or assignment.

(b) Seller, at the request of Purchaser, agrees to cooperate reasonably with Purchaser so that Purchaser may acquire the Property as “replacement property” in a transaction intended to qualify in whole or in part as a tax-deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Tax Code. In order to implement such exchange: (i) Purchaser, upon notice to Seller, shall assign its rights, but not its obligations, under this Agreement to a third party designated by Purchaser to act as a qualified intermediary; (ii) Seller shall, and hereby agrees to, acknowledge such assignment and to accept payment of all or a portion of the Purchase Price from the intermediary; and (iii) at Closing, Seller shall convey the Property directly to Purchaser; provided, however, that: (w) Seller’s cooperation shall be limited to the actions specifically contemplated by the foregoing; (x) none of Seller’s rights or obligations hereunder shall be affected or modified in any way, nor shall any time periods contained herein be affected in any way; (y) Seller shall have no responsibility or liability to Purchaser or any other person for the qualification of Purchaser’s purported exchange transaction under Section 1031 of the Tax Code, other than solely as a result of Seller’s failure to perform the actions specifically contemplated in this Paragraph; and (z) Seller shall not be required to incur any additional expense (unless reimbursed by Purchaser) or liability (other than to a de minimis extent) as a result of such cooperation, exchange or assignment. Purchaser hereby agrees to and shall save, defend, indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Seller as a result of any such cooperation, exchange or assignment.

39. LIMITED LIABILITY. The respective obligations of Seller and Purchaser under this Agreement or any documents executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, including, without limitation, the Deed, the Xxxx of Sale, the Assignment of Lease and the Seller Certificate, are intended to be binding only on Seller and Purchaser and each of such party’s respective assets, and shall not be personally binding upon, nor shall any resort be had to any properties of the Seller Parties or Releasors. The provisions of this Paragraph 39 shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement, for any reason.

40. NO ELECTION BY SELLER OR PURCHASER. Each right of Seller and Purchaser provided for in this Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Seller or Purchaser of any one or more of such rights shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Seller or Purchaser of any or all other rights provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise.

41. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY. The provisions of this Agreement are not intended to benefit any third parties.

42. EQUITABLE OWNERSHIP. Prior to the conveyance of the Property hereunder, Purchaser shall not acquire, obtain or assume any equitable ownership of or title to the Property by reason of this Agreement.

43. PREPARATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall not be construed more strongly against either Party regardless of who is responsible for its preparation.

44. JOINT OBLIGATIONS. All obligations and liabilities of Seller and Purchaser set forth herein shall be joint and several if more than one Seller or Purchaser is named herein.

45. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts and by facsimile or e-mail (e.g., pdf), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

46. EXHIBITS: All Exhibits referred to herein are a part of the Agreement.

HOLDBACK ESCROW AGREEMENT

THIS HOLDBACK ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of , , by and among TOWN SPORTS INTERNATIONAL, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Seller”), [ ], a [ ] (“Purchaser”), and FIDELITY NATIONAL TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY (“Escrow Agent”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain Agreement of Sale dated as of , 2013 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Seller agreed to sell to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Property (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to the terms and conditions more particularly set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Paragraph 8(f) of the Purchase Agreement, Seller has delivered to Escrow Agent the Holdback Escrow Amount (the “Escrow Funds”); and

WHEREAS, Escrow Agent is willing to hold the Escrow Funds in escrow on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. All capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

2. Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges receipt of the Escrow Funds to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Funds, together with all interest earned thereon, in an interest-bearing escrow account, in accordance with the following:

(a) Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Funds, together with all interest earned thereon, in a federally-insured interest-bearing account at JPMorgan Chase Bank. Escrow Agent shall have no liability for any fluctuations in the interest rate paid on the Escrow Funds, and is not a guarantor thereof. Escrow Agent shall have no liability in the event of the failure, insolvency or inability of the depositary to pay said funds, or accrued interest upon demand for withdrawal. Additionally, Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for levies by any taxing authority(ies) based upon the Federal Taxpayer I.D. Numbers used to establish the account or accounts to hold the Deposit.

H-1

(b) In the event that there have been no Survival Claims (as hereinafter defined) asserted by Purchaser on or prior to [ , 2014]¹ (the “Outside Date”), on the first business day following the Outside Date, Escrow Agent is hereby instructed to release to Seller, without further instructions, the Escrow Funds then remaining. In the event that any Survival Claim shall have been asserted on or prior to the Outside Date, then Escrow Agent shall continue to hold the Escrow Funds, but if the actual damages asserted by Purchaser in respect of such Survival Claim are less than the amount of Escrow Funds, then Escrow Agent is hereby instructed to release to Seller within two (2) business days after the Outside Date the portion of the Escrow Funds in excess of the amount of such Survival Claims. Upon the final determination or settlement of all Survival Claims asserted on or prior to the Outside Date, the amount of the Escrow Funds not required to be disbursed to Purchaser pursuant to the final determination or settlement of all such Survival Claims in the aggregate shall be released by Escrow Agent to Seller.

(c) If Escrow Agent receives a written request signed by Seller or Purchaser (the “Noticing Party”) stating that the Noticing Party is entitled to all or a portion of the Escrow Funds, Escrow Agent shall deliver (by reputable overnight courier) a copy of such request to the other party hereto (the “Non-Noticing Party”). The Non-Noticing Party shall have the right to object to such request for the Escrow Funds by written notice of objection delivered to Escrow Agent within five (5) business days after the date of Escrow Agent’s delivery of such copy to the Non-Noticing Party, but not thereafter. If Escrow Agent shall not have so received a written notice of objection from the Non-Noticing Party within the time herein prescribed, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Funds (or such portion thereof as was requested by the Noticing Party) to the Noticing Party. If Escrow Agent shall have received a written notice of objection within the time herein prescribed, Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with any requests or demands on it and shall continue to hold the Escrow Funds, together with any interest earned thereon, until Escrow Agent receives either (i) a written notice signed by both Seller and Purchaser_,stating who is entitled to the Escrow Funds (or the portion so specified), or (ii) the final non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction directing disbursement of the Escrow Funds in a specific manner, in either of which events Escrow Agent shall then disburse the Escrow Funds in accordance with such order. Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person for its refusal to comply with any such requests or demands until and unless it has received a direction of the nature described in clauses (i) or (ii) immediately above. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Escrow Agent shall not, at any time prior to the Business Day immediately following the Outside Date, release to Seller any portion of the Escrow Funds without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

(d) Any notice to Escrow Agent shall be sufficient only if received by Escrow Agent within the applicable time period set forth herein. All mailings and notices from Escrow Agent to Seller and/or Purchaser, or from Seller and/or Purchaser to Escrow Agent,

¹	180 days after the Closing Date under the Purchase Agreement.

H-2

provided for in this Agreement shall be addressed to the party to receive such notice at its notice address set forth in Section 3 hereof (with copies to be similarly sent to the additional parties therein indicated).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Escrow Agent shall have received a written notice of objection as provided for in clause (c) immediately above within the time therein prescribed, or shall have received at any time before actual disbursement of the Escrow Funds (or the applicable portion thereof), a written notice signed by either Seller or Purchaser disputing entitlement to the Escrow Funds, or shall otherwise believe in good faith at any time that a disagreement or dispute has arisen between the parties hereto over entitlement to the Escrow Funds (whether or not litigation has been instituted), Escrow Agent shall have the right, upon written notice to both Seller and Purchaser, (i) to deposit the Escrow Funds with the Clerk of the Court in which any litigation is pending and/or (ii) to take such reasonable affirmative steps as it may, at its option, elect in order to terminate its duties as Escrow Agent, including, without limitation, the depositing of the Escrow Funds with a court of competent jurisdiction and the commencement of an action for interpleader, the costs thereof to be borne by whichever of Seller or Purchaser is the losing party, and thereupon Escrow Agent shall be released of and from all liability hereunder except for any previous gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(f) Escrow Agent is acting hereunder without charge as an accommodation to Seller and Purchaser, it being understood and agreed that Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error in judgment or any act done or omitted by it in good faith or pursuant to court order, or for any mistake of fact or law. Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability in acting upon any document or instrument believed thereby to be genuine. Escrow Agent is hereby released and exculpated from all liability hereunder, except only for willful misconduct or gross negligence. Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to give it any notice on behalf of any party has been authorized to do so. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for, and Seller and Purchaser hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify Escrow Agent against, any loss, liability or expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of any dispute under this Agreement, including the cost and expense of defending itself against any claim arising hereunder.

(g) Delivery of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by certified, unendorsed check by Escrow Agent or by cashier’s check, at the option of the party receiving the Escrow Funds (or applicable portion thereof).

7. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each counterpart for all purposes being deemed an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute only one and the same agreement.

8.
