3.1 Purchase Price.

3.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Parties hereby agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated prior to Closing among the Land, the Improvements and the Personal Property as determined the Parties, in their sole, but good faith, discretion. The Parties acknowledge and agree that such allocation shall be an arm’s length agreement based on the Parties’ best judgment as to the fair market value of the Land, the Improvements and the Personal Property. The Parties shall file all federal, state and local tax returns and related tax documents consistent with such allocation. The terms and conditions of this Section 3.2 shall survive the Closing. If the parties cannot agree upon an allocation prior to Closing, the allocation shall be resolved by Ernst & Young LP or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed upon by the Parties in writing. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm incurred pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be borne equally between the Parties.
3.3 Payment of Purchase Price.
3.3.1 Payment at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.1), less the obligations outstanding under the Existing Loan assumed by Purchaser at Closing, subject to the prorations described in Section 11, and as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.
3.3.2 Method of Payment.
(a) All amounts to be paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Agreement (include the prorations described in Section 11) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. federal funds; provided, however, that Purchaser may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay, any portion of the Purchase Price payable to Seller (less the outstanding principal balance of the Existing Loan assumed by Purchaser) that exceeds Twenty Six Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($26,700,000) (the “Minimum Cash Payment”) through the issuance of shares of common stock of the REIT (the “REIT Shares”). If Purchaser elects to issue REIT Shares pursuant to this Section 3.3.2, then the actual number of shares issued to Seller (rounded to the nearest whole number) in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 3.3.2 shall equal the quotient resulting from (x) the dollar value of the portion of the Purchase Price in excess of the Minimum Cash Payment which Purchaser has elected to satisfy through the issuance of REIT Shares divided by (y) the mid-point price per share of the REIT’s common stock set forth in the REIT’s red-xxxxxxx Initial Public Offering prospectus filed with the SEC (the “Prospectus”).
(b) With respect to any REIT Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement, Seller agrees to execute, prior to the issuance of any such shares, a lock-up agreement restricting the transfer of any such shares in a form substantially similar to the lock-up agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) executed by all officers and directors of the REIT in connection with the IPO prior to the issuance of such shares, which agreement shall provide, among other things, that Seller shall not be permitted to effect any transfers (including pledges) of such REIT Shares for a period of one-hundred and eighty (180) days from and after the date the REIT enters into an underwriting agreement with the underwriters of the IPO. The foregoing provisions shall only be applicable to Seller if all officers and directors of the REIT are subject to the same restrictions. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the REIT or the underwriters shall apply pro-rata to Seller, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements.
(c) The rights as of the Closing of holders of the REIT Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement will be as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the REIT (the “REIT Organizational
11
Documents”). Seller’s name and the number of REIT Shares so issuable, shall be recorded in the books and records of the REIT. At the Closing, and subject to the completion of the Closing, Seller shall be considered as a stockholder of the REIT and, as such, shall be subject to, and bound by, the REIT Organizational Documents.
ARTICLE 4. DILIGENCE MATTERS AND INSPECTIONS
4.1 Due Diligence Materials and Inspections.
4.1.1 Intentionally Deleted.
4.1.2 Due Diligence Inspections. Purchaser shall have the right to perform such examinations, tests, investigations and studies of the Property (the “Inspections”) as Purchaser reasonably deems advisable, in accordance with this Section 4.1.2.

4.1.3 Seller’s Due Diligence Materials.
(a) Seller has heretofore delivered, or otherwise made available, to Purchaser, to Seller’s Knowledge, true, correct and complete copies of the due diligence materials in Seller’s Possession or control relating to the Property set forth on Schedule 4.1.3, and Seller covenants and agrees to deliver any other documents and materials which (x) may hereafter become available and would have comprised Seller Due Diligence Materials had the same existed or been in Seller’s possession or control prior to the Effective Date, and/or (y) may be hereafter reasonably requested by Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to acknowledge in writing, upon Seller’s request, the receipt of any due diligence documents or materials delivered to Purchaser (all documents and materials provided or made available by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, together with any copies or reproductions of such documents or materials, or any summaries, abstracts, compilations or other analyses made by or for Purchaser based on the information in such documents or materials, are referred to collectively herein as the “Seller Due Diligence Materials”). To the extent Purchaser requests as part of its due diligence any information concerning the Employees, delivery of such information shall be subject to (i) Section 2.1.13, (ii) appropriate arrangements being made with Manager, and (iii) Purchaser’s compliance with Sections 8.1 and 8.8. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser may contact directly the general manager, the regional controller of the Manager, and such other employees of Manager as Seller or Manager may designate to assist in or facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and Seller further agrees that, to the extent required by Manager, Seller hereby authorizes Manager to communicate with and deliver such documents and information to Purchaser in furtherance of the foregoing.
(b) If this Agreement is terminated, Purchaser promptly shall (a) return all original Seller Due Diligence Materials provided to Purchaser, and destroy all other Seller Due Diligence Materials, (b) cause all Persons to whom Purchaser has provided any Seller Due Diligence Materials to return any original Seller Due Diligence Materials to Purchaser, and destroy all other Seller Due Diligence Materials, and (c) at Sellers’ written request, certify to Seller that all original Seller Due Diligence Materials have been returned to Seller and all other Seller Due Diligence Materials have been destroyed.
4.1.4 Purchaser’s Due Diligence Reports. If requested by Seller, at no cost or expense to Purchaser, Purchaser shall provide a copy to Seller of all studies, reports and assessments prepared by any Person for or on
12
behalf of Purchaser (other than any internal studies, reports and assessments prepared by any of Purchaser’s employees, attorneys or accountants) in connection with the Inspections (the “Purchaser Due Diligence Reports”).
4.1.5 Release and Indemnification. Purchaser (for itself and all Purchaser Indemnitees) hereby releases the Seller Indemnitees for any Indemnification Loss incurred by any Seller Indemnitee arising from or in connection with the Inspections, except to the extent resulting from (i) Seller’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) the mere discovery of the pre-existing presence of hazardous substances. Purchaser shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees in accordance with Section 15 from and against any Indemnification Loss incurred by any Seller Indemnitee arising from or in connection with the Inspections. At Seller’s request, Purchaser, at its cost and expense, shall repair any damage to the Property or any other property owned by a Person other than Purchaser arising from or in connection with the Inspections, and restore the Property or such other third party property to the same condition as existed prior to such Inspections, or replace the Property or such third party property with property of the same quantity and quality. This Section 4.1.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, repairs any damage to the Property or any other property owned by a Person other than Purchaser or replaces or restores the Property or any other property owned by a Person other than Purchaser, then Purchaser’s reimbursement obligation for any related Indemnification Loss shall be reduced by the costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with such repair, restoration or replacement, as the case may be.
4.1.6 Insurance. Prior to commencing any Inspections, Purchaser shall provide to Seller a certificate of insurance, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, evidencing that Purchaser maintains (i) commercial general liability insurance in an amount no less than One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) insuring Purchaser against its indemnification obligations under Section 4.1.5, and naming Seller, Manager and such other Persons designated by Seller as an additional insured thereunder, and (ii) worker’s compensation insurance in amount, form and substance required under Applicable Law. Purchaser’s maintenance of such insurance policies shall not release or limit Purchaser’s indemnification obligations under Section 4.1.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser’s indemnification obligation under this Section 4.1.5 for any Indemnification Loss shall be reduced by any net amounts recovered by Seller under Purchaser’s insurance policies.
ARTICLE 5. TITLE TO THE PROPERTY
5.1 Title Commitment. Seller has heretofore delivered to Purchaser a commitment for an ALTA owner’s title insurance policy from the Title Company, (the “Title Commitment”), together with a copy of all documents referenced therein obtained from the Title Company.
5.2 Survey. Seller has heretofore delivered to Purchaser the existing ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey of the Real Property completed by Landmark Surveying, Inc. for the Property (the “Survey”).
5.3 Exceptions to Title.
5.3.1 Title Review. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it has performed its due diligence with respect to matters of title on the Property, and that any matter listed on the Title Commitment, other than Unpermitted Exceptions, shall be deemed a “Permitted Exception”; provided, however, that nothing contained herein (regardless of whether the same shall be a Permitted Exception) shall prevent Purchaser from negotiating with the Title Company for the removal of any such Permitted Exception as an exception to the Title Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees to and shall be obligated to remove as exceptions to title to the Property (a) all delinquent taxes and assessments and interest and penalties thereon, if any, and (b) all other monetary liens and encumbrances affecting the Property caused by or through Seller, such as mortgages, deeds of trust (other than the lien of the Mortgage securing the Existing Loan) and mechanic’s liens, regardless of whether the same appear on the Title Commitment initially delivered to Purchaser under Section 5.1 hereof or as a New Title Exception, as set forth in Section 5.3.3 hereinbelow (each and collectively, “Unpermitted Exceptions”).
5.3.2 Intentionally Deleted.
13
5.3.3 Updated Title Commitment or Survey. If any update of the Title Commitment delivered to Purchaser after the Effective Date discloses any Title Exception which is not disclosed in a Title Commitment provided to Purchaser prior to the Effective Date (a “New Title Exception”), or any update of the Survey delivered to Purchaser after the Effective Date discloses any defects on the Survey (each, a “Survey Defect”) which is not disclosed in a Survey delivered to Purchaser prior to the Effective Date (a “New Survey Defect”), and (i) Purchaser otherwise did not have Knowledge of such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect prior to the Effective Date and (ii) such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect was not caused by Purchaser or any Person on behalf of Purchaser, then Purchaser shall have the right to request Seller to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect at or prior to Closing by providing written notice to Seller within the earlier of: (A) five (5) days after receiving such update of the Title Commitment or Survey, or (B) the Closing (the “New Title and Survey Objection Notice”). If Purchaser provides a New Title and Survey Objection Notice to Seller, Seller may elect, by providing written notice (the “New Title and Survey Election Notice”) to Purchaser within the earlier of five (5) days after Seller’s receipt of such New Title and Survey Objection Notice or the Closing, (1) to remove or cause the Title Company to insure against such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect, or (2) not to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect (other than any Unpermitted Exceptions, which Seller shall be obligated to cure as set forth in Section 5.3.1 hereof). If Seller does not provide a New Title and Survey Election Notice to Purchaser within such time period, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect pursuant to clause (2) of the preceding sentence. If Seller elects or is deemed to have elected not to remove or cure a New Title Exception or New Survey Defect, then Purchaser shall have the right to elect, by providing written notice (the “New Title and Survey Response Notice”) to Seller within the earlier of five (5) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the New Title and Survey Election Notice or the Closing to (I) terminate this Agreement, in which case the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive such termination, or (II) proceed to Closing pursuant to this Agreement and accept title to the Real Property subject to such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect which thereafter shall be deemed to constitute a Permitted Exception, without any credit against the Purchase Price for such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect. If Purchaser does not provide a New Title and Survey Response Notice to Seller within such time period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to Closing pursuant to clause (II) of the preceding sentence.
5.3.4 Removal of Unpermitted Exceptions. Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Title Exceptions or Survey Defects other than the Unpermitted Exceptions and those exceptions set forth in Seller’s Title Notice or any New Title and Survey Election Notice subject to Section 5. Seller may cure any Unpermitted Exception by removing such Unpermitted Exception from title or causing the Title Company to commit to remove or insure over such Unpermitted Exception in the Title Policy at any time prior to or at Closing. If the Title Company does not agree to remove or insure over any Unpermitted Exception in the Title Policy, but another nationally recognized title insurance company is willing to issue the Title Policy without such Unpermitted Exception in the Title Policy, then Seller shall have the right to obtain (without obligation to do so), and Purchaser shall accept, a Title Policy from such other nationally recognized title insurance company which otherwise shall satisfy the requirements of Section 5.4, in which case the term “Title Company” shall be deemed to refer to such other title insurance company for all purposes in this Agreement.
5.3.5 Extension of Closing Date. If, prior to Closing, Seller fails to remove or cure any Unpermitted Exceptions or any exceptions set forth in any New Title and Survey Election Notice which meet the requirements set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.3.3, then such failure shall be deemed as Seller Default pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof, and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Seller and exercise the remedies set forth in Section 13.1 hereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right at its sole and absolute discretion (without obligation to do so), to grant Seller the right to postpone the Closing one or more times in order to remove or cure such Unpermitted Exception or exception set forth in any New Title and Survey Election Notice, in each case by providing written notice to Seller no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the then scheduled closing date.
5.4 Title Policy. At Closing, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Title Company to issue an American Land Title Association (“ALTA”) standard owner’s coverage policy of title insurance to Purchaser (which may be in the form of a xxxx up of the Title Commitment) in accordance with the Title Commitment, for the Real Property, with a liability limit in the amount of the Purchase Price and insuring that
14
leasehold title in the land described on Schedule 2.1.1 hereto under and pursuant to the Ground Lease is vested in Purchaser and insuring that ownership interest in the Improvements is vested in Purchaser as of the Closing Date, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (the “Title Policy”). At Purchaser’s option, Purchaser may elect to have the Title Policy issued in an ALTA extended coverage form, with such endorsements (which may include CLTA endorsement 101.4, providing insurance over mechanics’ liens) as may be agreed to between Purchaser and the Title Company; provided that (a) Purchaser pays any additional cost associated with such coverage and endorsements and any survey required by the Title Company in connection therewith, and (b) if Purchaser in its Title Objections requests that the issuance of extended coverage or any endorsements be a condition to Closing, and (i) the Title Company has agreed to issue the specified extended coverage and endorsements requested by Purchaser and (ii) Purchaser has agreed to pay the cost of the specified endorsements, then issuance of extended coverage and the specified endorsements shall be a condition to Closing.
5.5 Conveyance of the Property. At Closing, Seller shall assign its leasehold interest in the Land and its fee interest in the Improvements subject to all (i) Permitted Exceptions, and (ii) all Unpermitted Exceptions which are cured by causing the Title Company to remove or insure over such Unpermitted Exceptions in the Title Policy, but which otherwise are not removed from title, subject, in each instance, to Purchaser’s prior written consent, in its sole discretion.
