Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Property is subject to satisfaction on or before the Closing Date of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in writing by Purchaser in Purchaser’s sole and absolute subjective discretion:
7.1.1 Tenant Estoppel. Seller shall have obtained and delivered to Purchaser, on or before the Closing Date, an executed Tenant Estoppels for each Lease from the existing tenant, with such Tenant Estoppels not indicating any material defaults under the applicable Lease or any material inconsistencies with respect to the facts or information set forth in the applicable Lease, except to the extent the same have been disclosed by any of the Seller’s representations and warranties under this Agreement (the “Required Estoppels”), together with the executed and acknowledged subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements for each Lease referenced in Section 2.1.1 above.
7.1.2 Delivery of Closing Documents. Seller shall have delivered each of the Closing Documents required to be delivered under Section 8.2.1 of this Agreement.

The cost, if any, of such reliance letters / recertification shall be borne by Purchaser.
7.1.4 Covenants, Representations and Warranties. Seller shall not be in material breach of any of the covenants, representations and warranties it has made in this Agreement. In addition, there shall not exist any facts or circumstances that would make any of the Seller’s Express Representations untrue in any material respect as of the Closing Date.
7.2 Conditions Precedent to Seller’s Obligation to Close. Seller’s obligation to sell the Property is subject to satisfaction, on or before the Closing Date of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in writing by Seller, in Seller’s sole and absolute subjective discretion:
7.2.1 Covenants. Purchaser shall have performed and observed, in all material respects, all covenants of Purchaser under this Agreement.

7.2.3 Delivery of Closing Documents and Payment of Purchase Price. Purchaser shall have delivered each of the Closing Documents required to be delivered under Section 8.3.1 of this Agreement and shall have paid into escrow the balance due of the Purchase Price.
7.3 Failure of a Condition General. If any condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as set forth in Section 7.1 of this Agreement, has not been satisfied on or before the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall give notice to Seller of the condition or conditions that Purchaser asserts are not satisfied. If the conditions specified in such notice are not satisfied within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice (with the Closing Date automatically being extended to accommodate such ten (10) Business Day period, but in no event beyond the Designated Closing Date without Seller’s approval), then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, whereupon neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (other than any obligations of either party that expressly survive termination) and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any of the conditions precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to close, as set forth in Section 7.1 of this Agreement, are not satisfied within the ten (10) Business Day period specified above and the same are reasonably susceptible of being cured, Seller shall have the right to extend such period in which to satisfy the unsatisfied condition for a period of up to thirty (30) additional days, by giving written notice thereof to the Purchaser and Escrow Agent within the initial ten (10) Business Day period referenced above. Purchaser shall have the right to waive the unsatisfied condition or conditions by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent given within five (5) Business Days after expiration of the applicable satisfaction period without satisfaction having occurred, in which event the Closing Date shall be the date that is five (5) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s waiver notice. If the Closing Date is extended pursuant to this paragraph, then the Closing Date shall be the date that is the earlier to occur of five (5) Business Days after (a) the date that the unsatisfied condition has been satisfied, or (b) Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s waiver notice. It is understood and agreed that the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.1 hereof that is not reasonably susceptible of being cured within the time
allotted shall not constitute a default, breach of a covenant, or other failure to perform by Seller hereunder unless such failed condition was caused by Seller’s willful and intentional actions in violation of its covenants set forth in Section 6.1.1 hereof.
If any condition precedent to Seller’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as set forth in Section 7.2 of this Agreement, has not been satisfied on or before the Closing Date, then Seller shall give notice to Purchaser of the condition or conditions that Seller asserts are not satisfied. If the conditions specified in such notice are not satisfied within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice (with the Closing Date automatically being extended to accommodate such ten (10) Business Day period, but in no event beyond the Designated Closing Date without Seller’s approval), then Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser and Escrow Agent, whereupon neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (other than any obligations of either party that expressly survive termination) and the Deposit shall be paid to Seller. Seller shall have the right to waive the unsatisfied condition or conditions by written notice to Purchaser and Escrow Agent given within five (5) Business Days after expiration of the satisfaction period without satisfaction having occurred, in which event the Closing Date shall be the date that is five (5) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of Seller’s waiver notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything set forth herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Closing Date be extended with respect to Purchaser’s failure to fund into escrow the balance of the Purchase Price due at Closing as required under this Agreement, unless expressly agreed by Seller in writing in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion.

The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall be conducted by delivery of documents and funds in escrow to Escrow Agent on February 18, 2014 (the “Designated Closing Date”); TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, provided, however, at Purchaser’s election the Designated Closing Date may be changed to an earlier date in order to accommodate Purchaser’s rate lock provided that Purchaser provides Seller at least three (3) Business Days prior notice of such earlier date.

8.3.2 Payment of Consideration. Purchaser shall pay to Escrow Agent a sum equal to the remaining portion of the Purchase Price owed by Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.1.3 of this Agreement. As part of the Closing under this Agreement, in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent shall disburse, via federal funds wire transfer of immediately available funds, to an account designated by Seller in a written notice to Escrow Agent delivered prior to the Closing Date, with such notice to contain all information necessary for Escrow Agent to effectuate such transfer, the amount due to Seller as shown on the Settlement Statement.
8.3.3 Costs. Purchaser will pay all costs allocated to Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.5.1 of this Agreement.

8.5 Costs and Adjustments at Closing. Seller shall prepare and submit to Purchaser for Purchaser’s review, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a draft proration statement setting forth the prorations and adjustments contemplated by this Agreement.

8.5.1 Transaction Expenses. Any closing or escrow fees of Escrow Agent (except for any closing or escrow fees associated with Purchaser’s financing of the purchase of the Property) shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser.
Seller shall pay (i) all costs and fees for Seller’s representatives and consultants (except as set forth in this Section 8.5.1 below), (ii) all fees and costs associated with delivering title to the Property in the condition required by Article 3 of this Agreement, (iii) State of Illinois, Will County, and University Park transfer taxes for the Deed, (iv) the cost of the Survey, and (v) all costs and fees for title examination, title insurance and related title company charges (including all such costs and fees associated with the issuance of the Title Commitment and the Title Policy (exclusive of the cost of extended coverage and any endorsements desired by Purchaser)). Purchaser shall pay (or reimburse Seller for) (i) all costs associated with Purchaser’s due diligence studies and investigations of the Property, (ii) all closing, escrow and other costs associated with Purchaser’s financing of its purchase of the Property, including, without limitation, all recording fees and taxes in connection with any security documents, (iii) all recording fees in connection with this transaction, and (iv) all costs associated with any state and local recordation tax, documentary and other taxes and stamps, and any recording fees or mortgage taxes associated with any new mortgage or deed of trust related to Purchaser’s financing of its purchase of the Property.

Seller shall remit to Purchaser any Rents received by Seller subsequent to Closing which are attributable to periods from and after Closing within two (2) Business Days from Seller’s receipt of such Rents, together with appropriate supporting documentation. In the event that the scheduled date of Closing is during the last five (5) business days of a calendar month, the Closing shall be adjourned until the Rents for the next calendar month have been paid (and such Rents shall then be correspondingly pro-rated so the Rents for such following calendar month are credited to the Purchaser). For the avoidance of doubt, as contemplated by the representation set forth in Section 5.1.6, in no event shall Purchaser be required to close if all Rents are not current. As used herein, the term “Apportionment Time” shall mean 11:59 p.m. Chicago, Illinois time on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date.
8.5.3 Real Estate Taxes. The 2012 real estate taxes due and payable in 2013 have been paid in full. Under the Lease, the existing tenant is required to pay the 2013 real estate taxes due and payable in 2014 and real estate taxes due and payable in subsequent years. Tenant pays the taxing authorities directly. Accordingly, the real estate taxes shall not be prorated at Closing.
8.5.4 Utilities. The existing tenant is responsible for payment of all water, sewer, electric, fuel (if any) and other utility charges. Accordingly, the utility charges shall not be prorated at Closing.
8.5.5 Insurance Policies. Premiums on insurance policies will not be adjusted. As of the Closing Date, Seller will terminate its insurance coverage with respect to the Property and Purchaser will affect its own insurance coverage.
8.5.6 Survival. The provisions of this Section 8.5 shall survive Closing for a period of four (4) months from the Closing Date.
ARTICLE 9
DAMAGE AND CONDEMNATION
9.1 Damage. If, prior to the Closing, all or any portion of the Property is damaged by fire or any other cause whatsoever, Seller shall promptly give Purchaser written notice of such damage. Risk of loss for damage to all or any part of the Property by fire or other casualty from the Effective Date through the Closing Date will be on Seller. Seller covenants and agrees that it shall cause the insurance described in the insurance certificates previously delivered to Purchaser to remain unmodified and in full force and effect through Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following provisions set forth the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to any damage to the Property from the Effective Date through the Closing Date.
9.1.1 Minor Damage. If the cost for repairing such damage is equal to or less than Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000.00) (as determined by Seller’s independent insurer), then Purchaser shall have the right at Closing to receive a credit for the amount of the deductible plus all insurance proceeds received by Seller prior to the Closing as a result of such loss, or an assignment of Seller’s rights to such insurance proceeds, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller shall have no further liability or obligation to repair such damage or to replace the Property.
9.1.2 Major Damage. If the cost for repairing such damage is greater than Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000.00) (as determined by Seller’s independent insurer), then Purchaser shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Agent within five (5) Business Days after Seller’s notice of damage to Purchaser, either (i) to receive at the Closing a credit for the amount of the deductible plus all insurance proceeds received by Seller prior to the Closing as a result of such loss, or an assignment of Seller’s rights to such insurance proceeds, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller shall have no further liability or obligation to repair such damage or to replace the Property; or (ii) to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party will have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for any obligations that expressly survive termination. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller within such five (5) Business Day period of Purchaser’s intention to terminate this Agreement, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected option (i), and Purchaser and Seller shall proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
9.2 Condemnation and Eminent Domain. If any condemnation proceedings are instituted, or notice of intent to condemn is given, with respect to all or any portion of the Property, Seller shall promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof notify Purchaser thereof (“Taking Notice”). If the condemnation will not result in a material and adverse effect (as hereinafter defined) on the Property, the parties shall proceed to Closing, in which event Seller shall assign or pay to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in any award payable on account of the condemnation and/or pay to Purchaser all such awards previously paid. In the event that such condemnation will result in a material and adverse effect on the
Property, Purchaser shall have the option, which shall be exercised by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of the Taking Notice, either (i) to terminate this Agreement and receive the prompt return of the Deposit, in which case the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement (except for any obligations that expressly survive termination), or (ii) to consummate the purchase of the Property without a reduction of the Purchase Price, in which event Seller shall assign or pay to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in any award payable on account of the condemnation proceeding and/or pay to Purchaser all such awards previously paid. For the purposes of this Section 9.2, “material and adverse effect” shall mean any reduction in the amount of the rentable square footage of the Buildings, the reduction of more than ten percent (10%) of the Land, or the permanent, material disruption of access to the Property. Failure to give notice of Purchaser’s election within such five (5) Business Day period shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed to Closing.
ARTICLE 10
REMEDIES AND ADDITIONAL COVENANT
10.1 Seller Default At or Before Closing. If Seller fails, in any material respect, to perform any of its obligations or agreements hereunder when performance is required on or prior to the Closing Date, or if any of the Express Representations should be false in any material respect when made and Purchaser shall become aware of same on or prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall not have waived its claims with regard to same pursuant to this Agreement, then Purchaser shall give Seller written notice of such breach or default on or prior to the Closing Date and Seller shall have ten (10) Business Days from the date of receipt of such notice to cure such breach or default and the Closing Date shall be extended accordingly (but in no event beyond the Designated Closing Date without Seller’s approval). If Seller fails to cure such breach or default within such ten (10) Business Day period, then Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy, (i) may terminate this Agreement by notifying Seller and the Escrow Agent thereof, in which event neither party shall have any rights, duties or obligations hereunder other than the obligations and rights set forth herein that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Purchaser, (ii) may xxx for specific performance of the obligations of Seller hereunder, or (iii) may waive the alleged default and proceed to Closing under this Agreement without adjustment of the Purchase Price, provided, however, if specific performance is not available and Purchaser elects to terminate pursuant to clause (i) above, then, (1) if specific performance is not available because the Seller has conveyed the Premises to another party, then in addition to Purchaser’s right in clause (i) above to have the Deposit returned to the Purchaser, Purchaser shall be paid by Seller any and all losses and damages (including, but not limited to, the difference between any consideration paid by such other party for the Premises and the Purchaser Price) incurred by Purchaser as a result of Purchaser’s breach, and (2) if specific performance is not available for any other reason, then, in addition to Purchaser’s right in clause (i) above to have the Deposit returned to the Purchaser, Purchaser shall be paid by Seller the amount of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses Purchaser has incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated herein, capped at $200,000, including, but not limited to all due diligence costs, legal fees, lender fees and deposits. For the avoidance of doubt, if Purchaser initially elects as its remedy as clause (ii) above, but such remedy is not available, Purchaser may at any time change its election to clause (i) above and be entitled to the additional damages as provided above.
10.2 Seller Breach After Closing. If any of the Express Representations should be false in any material respect when made or Seller is in breach or default of any covenant, representation or warranty under this Agreement or any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, and Purchaser shall first become aware of same after the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall give Seller written notice of such false Express Representation or breach or default prior to the expiration of the Survival Period and Seller shall have fifteen (15) Business Days from the date of receipt of such notice to cure such breach. If Seller fails to cure such breach within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, and the actual losses or damages sustained as a result of Seller’s false Express Representations or breach or default exceeds $75,000.00, then Purchaser shall have the right to bring an action against Seller for the actual damages suffered by Purchaser due to such false Express Representation or breach or default, provided that, in no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for damages under this Section 10.2 in an aggregate amount in excess of $1,000,000.00.
10.3 Purchaser Default. The parties acknowledge and agree that Seller should be entitled to compensation for any detriment suffered if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property if and when required to do so under the terms of this Agreement, but agree that it would be extremely difficult to ascertain the extent of the actual detriment Seller would suffer as a result of such failure. Consequently, if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property on the Closing Date or fails to perform any of its other covenants hereunder in any material respect, or otherwise defaults in its obligations hereunder, then Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Purchaser and Escrow Agent prior to or on the Closing Date, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to Seller as fixed, agreed and liquidated damages, and, after the payment of the Deposit to Seller, neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for any obligations that expressly survive termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aforementioned liquidated damages shall not apply to the indemnity provisions attributable to Purchaser under this Agreement.
10.4 Delivery of Materials. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever, then Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller all Property Information provided to Purchaser by Seller, including copies thereof in any form whatsoever (including electronic form) along with any and all test results and studies of the Property performed by or on behalf of Purchaser pursuant to Article 4 of this Agreement, unless otherwise directed by Seller and excluding any confidential or proprietary information or financial modeling or attorney work product. The obligations of Purchaser under this Section 10.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 11
BROKERAGE COMMISSION.
11.1 Brokers. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that Seller has not contacted or entered into any agreement with any real estate broker, agent, finder, or similar party in connection with this transaction, except for Avison Young (“Seller’s Broker”) and that Seller has not taken any action which would result in any real estate broker’s or finder’s fees or commissions being due and payable to any party other than Seller’s Broker with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller will be solely responsible for the payment of Seller’s
Broker’s commission in accordance with the provisions of a separate agreement between Seller and Seller’s Broker. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that Purchaser has not contracted or entered into any agreement with any real estate broker, agent, finder, or similar party in connection with this transaction and that Purchaser has not taken any action which would result in any real estate brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions being due or payable to any party with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby.
11.2 Indemnity. Each party hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold the other party harmless from any loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) paid or incurred by the other party by reason of a breach of the representation and warranty made by such party under this Article 11. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the indemnities set forth in this Section 11.2 shall survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement.

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Purchaser and Seller have entered into a certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of January , 2014 (as may be amended, hereinafter referred to as the “Contract”), which provides that one or more deposits will be delivered to Escrow Agent to be held and applied by said Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned in the Contract.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements set forth in the Contract and the mutual covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Within one (1) Business Day after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent, by federal wire transfer, funds in the amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the “Initial Deposit”). On or before the expiration or waiver of the Diligence Period, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent, by federal funds wire transfer, a cash deposit in immediately available funds in the additional amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (the “Additional Deposit”). The Initial Deposit and Additional Deposit are collectively referred to herein as the “Deposit”. Escrow Agent hereby agrees to hold, administer, and disburse the Deposit pursuant to this Agreement and the Contract. Escrow Agent shall invest such Deposit in a segregated, interest-bearing money market account. In the event any interest or other income shall be earned on such Deposit, such interest or other income become a part of the Deposit and will be the property of the party entitled to the Deposit pursuant to the Contract. Purchaser’s and Seller’s Federal Identification Numbers are set forth below. Escrow Agent shall hold and disburse the Deposit, and shall conduct the Closing, and carry out the duties of Escrow Agent, in accordance with this Agreement and as provided in the Contract. The Deposit is non-refundable unless Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with the express provisions of the Agreement.
2. At such time as Escrow Agent receives written notice from either Purchaser or Seller, or both, setting forth the identity of the party to whom the Deposit are to be disbursed and further setting forth the specific section or paragraph of such Contract pursuant to which the disbursement of the Deposit is being requested, Escrow Agent shall disburse the Deposit pursuant to such notice; provided, however, that if such notice is given by either Purchaser or Seller but not both, Escrow Agent shall (i) promptly notify the other party (either Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be) that Escrow Agent has received a request for disbursement, and (ii) withhold disbursement of the Deposit for a period of ten (10) days after receipt of such notice of disbursement and if Escrow Agent receives written notice from either Purchaser or Seller within
Exhibit B
said ten (10) day period which notice countermands the earlier notice of disbursement, then Escrow Agent shall withhold such disbursement until both Purchaser and Seller can agree upon a disbursement of the Deposit. Purchaser and Seller each hereby agree to send to the other, pursuant to Paragraph 5 below, a duplicate copy of any written notice sent to Escrow Agent and requesting any such disbursement or countermanding a request for disbursement.
3. In performing any of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability to anyone for any damages, losses, or expenses, except for willful default or breach of trust, and it shall accordingly not incur any such liability with respect to (i) any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of its legal counsel given with respect to any questions relating to the duties and responsibilities of Escrow Agent under this Agreement, or (ii) any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any instrument, including any written notice or instruction provided for in this Agreement, not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by a proper person or persons, and to conform with the provisions of this Agreement.
4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 2 above, in the event of a dispute between Purchaser and Seller sufficient, in the sole discretion of Escrow Agent to justify its doing so or in the event that Escrow Agent has not disbursed the Deposit on or before ten (10) days after the Closing Date, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender into the registry or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction the Deposit, together with such legal pleadings as it may deem appropriate, and thereupon be discharged from all further duties and liabilities under this Agreement. Any such legal action may be brought in a federal or district court in the Xxxx County, Illinois, or, if such courts do not have jurisdiction as to the parties or matters involved then such court as Escrow Agent shall determine to have jurisdiction thereof.
5.
