4
not have the right to effectuate a Due Diligence Termination of this Agreement unless (i) Buyer effectuates Due Diligence Termination of all Other Agreements or (ii) Buyer effectuates Due Diligence Terminations of one or more Other Agreements under Section 4.3(A) thereof, and the aggregate of the Purchase Prices under and as defined in the Other Agreements that have not been so terminated equals or exceeds the Threshold Aggregate Purchase Price. “Threshold Aggregate Purchase Price” means Two Hundred Twenty Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($222,300,000), minus the Purchase Price under and as defined in each Other Agreement that has been terminated because of a Seller Default thereunder or pursuant to Section 10.1 thereof.
(C) If, during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer terminates this Agreement and all Other Agreements in each instance as a Due Diligence Termination, then Seller’s Portion of the Deposit (identified in the Escrow Agreement) and all interest earned thereon shall be paid to Seller, and Buyer’s Portion of the Deposit (identified in the Escrow Agreement) and all interest earned thereon shall be paid to Buyer, within two (2) Business Days after the Title Insurance Company receives written notice of such termination from either party.
(D) If Buyer terminates this Agreement because of a Seller Default hereunder or pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof, then the entire Deposit shall be paid to Buyer within two (2) Business Days after the Title Insurance Company receives notice of such termination from either party.
(E) If, during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer effectuates a Due Diligence Termination of this Agreement, but does not effectuate Due Diligence Terminations of all the Other Agreements, then the Deposit hereunder shall be reallocated (“Reallocated Deposit”) to the Deposits under all Other Agreements remaining in effect, in the same proportion as the Deposit under each remaining Other Agreement bears to the aggregate amounts of all Deposits under all remaining Other Agreements.
(F) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, in the event of a dispute between the parties as to whether Seller’s Portion of the Deposit is payable to Seller hereunder, the Title Company shall pay to Buyer Buyer’s Portion of the Deposit pursuant to the foregoing.
4.4 Survey. Buyer shall provide Seller with a copy of any survey of the Real Property (“Survey”) obtained by Buyer in order for Seller to review any Buyer Title Objections (as hereinafter defined).
4.5 Clearing Title Objections. (A) Buyer shall, within twenty (20) Business Days following the Effective Date, cause the Title Insurance Company to issue and shall deliver to Seller a commitment to issue a Title Insurance Policy covering the Property (“Title Insurance Commitment”) in order for Seller to review any Buyer Title Objections.
(B) Buyer shall notify Seller (“Title Objection Notice”) what, if any, matters disclosed by the Title Insurance Commitment or Survey are objectionable to Buyer (collectively, “Buyer Title Objections”) within five (5) Business Days following Buyer’s provision of the Title Insurance Commitment and Survey to Seller. If Buyer shall fail to give Seller a Title Objection
5
Notice within such period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have approved all such matters, and, at Closing, shall take title to the Property subject to all encumbrances, exceptions and other matters disclosed by the Title Insurance Commitment and Survey, other than mortgages, deeds of trust, judgments, security interests, mechanics’ liens and other monetary liens (collectively, “Monetary Liens”) which Seller shall be obligated to Remove of Record at or prior to the Closing (“Remove of Record” means causing the Title Insurance Company to remove a matter disclosed by the Title Insurance Commitment as an exception from coverage under the Title Insurance Policy or, as applicable, causing the surveyor to remove a matter from the Survey).
(C) Within five (5) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of the Title Objection Notice, Seller shall notify Buyer of those Buyer Title Objections (other than Monetary Liens) that Seller shall not be obligated to Remove of Record at or prior to Closing (the Buyer Title Objections that are duly identified in Seller’s responsive notice as matters that Seller will not be obligated to Remove of Record, together with title encumbrances that Buyer does not identify as Buyer Title Objections, are herein collectively referred to as “Permitted Encumbrances”; “Required Deletion Items” means all Monetary Liens and all Buyer Title Objections that do not become Permitted Encumbrances). Seller shall not be obligated to Remove of Record any Permitted Encumbrances. Seller shall Remove of Record, at or prior to Closing, all Required Deletion Items, and, prior to Closing, Exhibit “B” to the form of Deed attached hereto as Exhibit “A” shall be modified by the parties to reflect the Permitted Encumbrances.
(D) If Seller does not give such a responsive notice within such five (5) Business Day period, then (i) Seller shall be obligated to Remove of Record all Buyer Title Objections and (ii) Buyer shall cause the Title Insurance Company, within five (5) Business Days thereafter, to revise and reissue the Title Insurance Commitment, calling for the removal of all Required Deletion Items and obligating the Title Insurance Company to issue the Title Insurance Policy under and subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances listed in the Title Insurance Commitment. If Seller timely gives such a responsive notice to the effect that Seller will not Remove of Record certain Buyer Title Objections then, within the five (5) Business Day period following Buyer’s receipt of such notice from Seller, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by notifying Seller, whereupon the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer promptly, and neither party shall have any further rights, duties, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. If Buyer fails to so terminate this Agreement, then Buyer shall take title to the Property at Closing subject to the Buyer Title Objections identified in Seller’s responsive notice.
(E) If at Closing there are any Required Deletion Items that have not been Removed of Record, then, without limitation to any other right or remedy of Buyer, Buyer may: (a) use any portion of the Purchase Price otherwise payable to Seller to Remove of Record such Required Deletion Items or (b) by notice to Seller, adjourn the Closing one or more times for an aggregate period not to exceed thirty (30) days in order to give Seller more time to Remove of Record such Required Deletion Items.
4.6 Termination of Contracts. Buyer shall review the Contracts during the Due Diligence Period and notify Seller in writing no later than ten (10) Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of true, correct and complete copies of the Contracts which Contracts Buyer wishes to assume and which Contracts Buyer wishes for Seller to terminate. Within five (5)
6
Business Days following receipt of Buyer’s notice as aforesaid, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing which, if any, Contracts designated by Buyer for termination Seller refuses or is unable to terminate, whereupon Buyer shall have the option to proceed to Closing and accept an assignment of such Contracts or terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit. Seller, at its expense, shall terminate, with respect to the Property, effective on the Closing Date, all Contracts which Seller has agreed to terminate as aforesaid. All Contracts not agreed to be terminated by Seller as aforesaid shall be assigned to Buyer at the Closing, if Buyer has not terminated this Agreement as aforesaid, pursuant to the Assignments of Contracts, and Seller shall obtain any and all consents necessary to effectuate such assignment.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER

Any “roll back” taxes payable in relation to any period tax abatement or relief or preferential assessment with respect to the Property prior to the Closing Date shall be paid in full by Seller, whenever billed by the relevant taxing authority.
12.6 Utilities and Contracts. Payments under the Contracts assumed by Buyer and charges for the supply of telephone, heat, steam, electric power, gas, lighting and any other utility service consumed at the Property for the month, or other relevant billing period, in which Closing takes place, shall be prorated between the parties as of the Closing Date. Where possible, Seller shall obtain cutoff readings for all utilities as of the Closing Date. To the extent they are not available, the cost of such utilities shall be apportioned between the parties on the basis of the latest actual (not estimated) xxxx for such service and adjusted by the parties as necessary post-Closing. Buyer shall receive a credit for any of the foregoing items to the extent the same are accrued but unpaid as of the Closing Date (whether or not due, owing or delinquent as of the Closing Date), and Seller shall receive a credit to the extent any of the foregoing items shall have been paid prior to the Closing Date to the extent the payment thereof specifically relates to any period of time after the Closing Date.
12.7 Prorations. (A) Current Rents, fees and any additional charges and expenses payable under the Leases, all as and when actually collected (whether such collection occurs prior to, on or after the Closing Date), water, sewer and utility charges and amounts payable under any Contract that is assigned to Buyer at Closing, and real estate taxes payable for, or
19
levied or assessed with respect to, the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, shall all be prorated as of 12:01 a.m. prevailing time on the Closing Date, on the basis of a 365-day year, with Buyer deemed the owner of the Property on the Closing Date.
(B) Any delinquent rents or expense reimbursements under any current Lease collected by Seller or Buyer after the Closing shall be the property of Buyer.
(C) If any of the aforesaid prorations cannot be calculated accurately on the relevant Closing Date, either party owing the other party a sum of money based on proration(s) calculated after a Closing Date shall promptly pay said sum to the other party, together with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date the invoice is delivered to the date of payment, if payment is not made within thirty (30) days after delivery of a xxxx therefor.
12.8 Proration Backup Information. Seller shall calculate the adjustments and prorations called for by this Article and shall deliver such calculations and all relevant back-up information to Buyer no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. If all such information is not so delivered, then Buyer shall have the right, without limitation to Buyer’s other rights and remedies hereunder, to postpone the Closing until the fifth (5th) Business Day after Buyer’s receipt from Seller of all such information.
12.9 Audit Rights. (A) Buyer or an independent auditor designated by Buyer shall have the right to inspect and audit Seller’s books and records related to the Property for calendar years 2004 through 2006. Such rights shall be available to Buyer prior to Closing and for a period of two (2) years following Closing. Such inspection and audit may be conducted by Buyer at any time during normal business hours upon prior written notice from Buyer to Seller and shall not result in an unreasonable disruption of the business of Seller. If requested by Seller, the party performing such audit shall enter into a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding the disclosure of information obtained during such audit, the terms of which agreement shall permit disclosure of such information if required by law or in connection with legal process.
(B) Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all reasonable costs incurred by Seller in participating in any such audit and in any audit or investigation of this transaction by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
13. DEFAULT
13.1 Buyer’s Default. (A) If Seller complies with all of its obligations under this Agreement, and any time after the Deposit has become non-refundable in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof, Buyer defaults in its obligation to complete Closing hereunder, then Seller shall have the right at Closing to terminate this Agreement and to be paid the Deposit as liquidated damages for such breach. The parties have agreed that Seller’s actual damages, in the event of a failure to consummate this sale due to Buyer’s default, would be extremely difficult or impossible to determine. 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 event. Upon such termination, Seller and Buyer shall be released from all further liability and obligations hereunder, it being understood
20
that Seller’s right to terminate this Agreement and to be paid the Deposit shall be the sole remedy available to Seller in the event of any default by Buyer hereunder, Seller hereby waiving all other rights and remedies.
(B) If this Agreement is terminated by Seller pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 13.1, then any Reallocated Deposit under a terminated Other Agreement that shall have been applied to the Deposit hereunder pursuant to Section 2.4(E) of such Other Agreement (i) shall be refunded to Buyer if the aggregate Purchase Prices under and as defined in all Other Agreements under which Closing (as defined thereunder) shall have occurred, equals or exceeds the Threshold Aggregate Purchase Price, or (ii) shall be paid to Seller if the aggregate Purchase Price under and as defined in all Other Agreements under which Closing (as defined thereunder) shall have occurred is less than the Threshold Aggregate Purchase Price.
13.2 Seller’s Default. If Buyer complies with all of its obligations under this Agreement, and if on the date of this Agreement or at the time of Closing title to the Property is not as required by this Agreement, or if, at any time, Seller fails to complete Closing or otherwise defaults in the observance or performance of any of its other material agreements or obligations hereunder, or if any of Seller’s representations and warranties hereunder is untrue or incorrect (each, a “Seller Default”), then, in any such case, Buyer shall have the right, in addition to all its other rights and remedies at law or in equity or as set forth herein, including without limitation the right of specific performance of this Agreement (in which event Buyer shall have the right to collect all attorneys fees and costs and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such specific performance action), to terminate its obligations hereunder. If Buyer so elects to terminate its obligations hereunder, then the Deposit shall be refunded promptly to Buyer, and Seller, upon demand of Buyer, shall reimburse Buyer for all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with this transaction including, without limitation, costs and expenses incurred for legal counsel, surveys, engineering tests, environmental studies, feasibility studies, due diligence, permit applications and title searches provided that Buyer delivers to Seller all reasonable supporting documentation evidencing such costs and expenses. If the remedy of specific performance is not available, Buyer shall have the right to seek damages (including, without limitation, all attorneys fees and costs and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection with any cause of action) against Seller. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller’s obligation to reimburse Buyer for, and Buyer’s right to recover, damages against Seller hereunder shall be limited to the amount of $287,020.50
14. BROKERS
14.1 Brokers. Seller and Buyer hereby represent and warrant to the other that they have not engaged the services of any agent, broker or similar party in connection with this transaction. Seller and Buyer each hereby agree to indemnify one another for any claim for brokerage commissions or the like asserted by any person or entity claiming to have been engaged by the party against whom indemnity is sought.
