7.1.2 Delivery of Closing Documents. Seller shall have delivered Tenant Estoppels or Landlord Estoppels under each Lease (except the Amazon Lease) dated within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date. Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser an updated Rent Roll. Seller shall have delivered each of the Closing Documents required to be delivered under Section 8.2.1 of this Agreement.

7.1.3 Covenants, Representations and Warranties. Seller shall not be in material breach of any of 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a change in circumstances occurs after the Effective Date that is not otherwise a breach or default by Seller under the terms of this Agreement and such change of circumstances requires a representation and warranty made by the Seller to be modified in order for such representation and warranty to be accurate as of Closing, then the representation and warranty shall be deemed remade as so modified, and Seller shall not be in breach of or in default under this Agreement by virtue of such change in circumstances or modification.

7.1.4 Simultaneous Closing of Other Phases. Purchaser or Purchaser’s affiliate has separate contracts to purchase Amazon Phase Ia, Amazon Phase Ib, Amazon Phase II, Amazon Phase III, Amazon Phase IV and Amazon Phase V as identified on the map on Exhibit O (the “Other Phases”) with Seller’s affiliates. A material consideration of Purchaser in entering into this Agreement is Purchaser’s ability to purchase the Other Phases. If Seller’s

affiliates are unable to complete the sale of the Other Phases (or Seller is unable to complete the sale of this Phase), Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit. Therefore a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to Close shall be Seller’s affiliates meeting the conditions to close and otherwise fully performing Seller’s obligations under the contracts for the purchase and sale of the Other Phases.

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.

7.2.2 Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on the Closing Date

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.

7.3.1 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. Purchaser shall have the right to waive the unsatisfied condition or conditions by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent given on or before the Closing Date, in which case Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Closing Date by one (1) Business Day. Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date for a period of up to six (6) months by delivering written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent within five (5) Business Days’ after Seller’s receipt of such notice if Seller is unable to meet the conditions to close under this Agreement or the Other Phases agreements, and is diligently working to be able to close such phase(s); provided, that if the Closing Date is extended beyond December 31, 2012, Purchaser is given notice not less than sixty (60) days’ advanced notice of the extended Closing Date (further provided that Purchaser and Seller shall use good faith efforts to close prior to the end of any such sixty (60) day period). 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 if caused by a third party (other than Seller’s lender) unless such failed condition was caused by Seller’s negligence, or willful and intentional actions or omissions in violation of its covenants set forth in this Agreement, in which case such shall be a Seller default entitling Purchaser to exercise its rights under Article 10. In the event Seller exercises its right to extend the Closing Date in order to meet a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to close under this preceding paragraph and Closing does not occur on or before December 31, 2012, Escrow Agent shall promptly refund the Extension Payment (together with any interest accrued thereon) to Purchaser. If Seller has exercised its right to extend the Closing Date and Closing does not occur on or before June 21, 2013, Escrow Agent shall promptly refund the Deposit (together with any interest accrued thereon) to Purchaser.

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. Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Closing Date to satisfy the unsatisfied condition for a period of up to seven (7) additional days, by giving written notice thereof to Seller and Escrow Agent within one (1) Business Day after the Designated Closing Date, but in no event beyond December 31, 2012. 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 applicable 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 for 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.

7.3.2 Waiver. If the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes, the parties shall be deemed to have waived any and all unmet or unsatisfied conditions (other than a false Express Representation) subject to the provisions of Sections 5.4 and 10.2 hereof.

From and after Closing, Purchaser shall use good faith and commercially reasonable efforts

to collect from the tenants and licensees all Rents that are delinquent for the period prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser shall remit to Seller any Rents received by Purchaser subsequent to the Closing Date which are attributable to periods prior to the Closing Date within thirty (30) days from Purchaser’s receipt of such Rents, together with appropriate supporting documentation; such costs shall be net of costs of collection.

8.5.4 Real Estate, Local Improvement District and Personal Property Taxes. Real estate, personal property, payments due under any Local Improvement District and ad valorem taxes for the year in which the Closing occurs will be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Apportionment Time on the basis of actual bills therefor, if available, with such proration to be based on the applicable tax year (i.e. not the year of assessment) rather than on the calendar year. If such bills are not available, then such taxes and other charges shall be prorated on the basis of the most currently available tax bills and, thereafter, promptly re-prorated upon the availability of actual bills for the applicable period. Any and all rebates or reductions in taxes received after Closing for the tax year in which Closing occurs, net of costs of obtaining the same (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) and net of any amounts due to tenants, shall be prorated as of the Apportionment Time, when received by Seller or Purchaser. The current installment of all special assessments and business improvement district taxes and assessments, if any, that are a lien against the Property at the time of Closing and that are being or may be paid in installments shall be prorated as of the Apportionment Time.

8.5.5 Utilities. Water, sewer, electric, fuel (if any) and other utility charges, other than those for which tenants under Leases or licensees under Licenses are responsible directly to the provider, shall be prorated as of the Apportionment Time. If consumption of any of the foregoing is measured by meter, Seller shall, prior to the Closing Date, endeavor to obtain a reading of each such meter and a final xxxx as of the Closing Date. If there is no such meter or if the xxxx for any of the foregoing will not have been issued as of the Closing Date, the charges therefor shall be adjusted as of the Apportionment Time on the basis of the charges of the prior period for which such bills were issued and shall be further adjusted between the parties when the bills for the correct period are issued. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate to cause the transfer of utility accounts from Seller to Purchaser.

8.5.6 Insurance Policies. Premiums on insurance policies will not be subject to proration; instead, as of the Closing Date, Seller will terminate its insurance coverage for the Property and Purchaser will effect its own insurance coverage.

8.5.7 Other Operating Expenses. All other operating expenses for or pertaining to the Property, including, but not limited to, administrative charges, on-site management and fees, maintenance, and any service charges, will be prorated as of the Apportionment Time and be subject to reasonable adjustment, payment or offset between Seller and Purchaser during the period from the Closing Date until the final true up of Operating Expenses, Taxes and Escalations as provided in Section 8.5.9.

8.5.8 Tenant Improvement Allowances, Leasing Commissions and Free Rent. Purchaser shall receive credits against the Purchase Price at Closing equal to (i) the amount of outstanding tenant improvement allowances currently due and payable by Seller to tenants or licensees and shown as “Seller’s Obligation” on Schedule 8.5.8(i) attached hereto, as such Schedule may be updated by Seller at Closing in accordance with Section 8.2.1.10 of this Agreement; (ii) the amount of outstanding brokerage and leasing commissions currently due and payable by Seller to third parties and shown as “Seller’s Obligation” on Schedule 8.5.8(ii) attached hereto, as such Schedule 8.5.8 (ii) may be updated by Seller at Closing in accordance with Section 8.2.1.9 of this Agreement.

No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall provide to Purchaser details of operating expenses and real estate taxes for the Property for the period January 1, 2012 to the Closing Date. No later than March 1, 2013, Purchaser shall provide to Seller its general ledger (potentially subject to final audit adjustments) of operating expenses and real estate taxes for the Property from and after the Closing Date to December 31, 2012. No later than March 15, 2013, Purchaser shall provide to Seller the annual tenant reconciliation schedule for operating expenses, real estate taxes and escalations for the Property for calendar year 2012, together with appropriate supporting documentation related to the net escalation billing or refund due from or to tenants thereunder including the Amazon Lease and including a draft schedule prorating all such amounts between Seller and Purchaser based on the prorated total dollar amounts of operating expenses, real estate taxes and escalations either paid or collected by Seller and Purchaser for their respective periods of ownership for the 2012 calendar year. Seller and Purchaser shall endeavor to reasonably agree to the proration schedule, including its methodology, by March 31, 2013. Purchaser shall, as appropriate, invoice or refund the tenants under the Leases and the licensees under the Licenses for amounts owed or due in respect of such reconciliation promptly after Seller’s approval of such schedule, but not before then. Seller shall remit to Purchaser any amount owed by Seller on account of such reconciliation within ten (10) Business Days of Seller’s approval of such schedule. Purchaser shall use good faith and commercially reasonable efforts to collect from the tenants and licensees all amounts owed by such tenants and licensees on account of such reconciliation, and shall remit to Seller any such amounts received by Purchaser that are attributable to periods prior to Closing within thirty (30) days from Purchaser’s receipt thereof.

9.1.1 Minor Damage. If the cost for repairing such damage or addressing such adverse physical change is equal to or less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (as determined by Seller’s independent insurer, in the case of insured damage), 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 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, material adverse change, or to replace the Property.

REMEDIES AND ADDITIONAL COVENANT

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 Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), 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 [Twenty Three Million Ninety Thousand Six Hundred Forty Eight Dollars ($23,090,648.00).]7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this contained in Sections 10.1 or 10.2, Seller and Purchaser agree that the provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 is not intended and should not be deemed or construed to limit in any way Seller’s indemnity obligations under Section 11.2 of this Agreement nor limit Purchaser’s recovery against Seller for attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Purchaser pursuant to Section 14.13.

[VARIES] LLC, a Washington limited liability company (“Seller”), as Seller, and Purchaser, as Purchaser, are simultaneously herewith entering into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement (Amazon Phase [ ]) of even date herewith (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Seller has agreed to sell to Purchaser and Purchaser has agreed to buy from Seller, the Property, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, located in Seattle, Washington, all on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Guaranty have the meanings given in the Purchase Agreement.

B. Guarantor is an indirect owner of Seller and will benefit from the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

C. As a condition to Purchaser’s execution of the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser is requiring that Guarantor execute this Guaranty pursuant to which Guarantor guarantees certain obligations of Seller under the Purchase Agreement and under any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged by Guarantor, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

1. Guarantor irrevocably guarantees, without deduction by reason of set-off, defense (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) or counterclaim, the full, punctual, and complete payment and performance of (a) all post closing obligations of Seller to Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement and under any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing (including, without limitation, the performance of all Retained Liabilities except as provided below, Seller’s obligations under Section 8.5 of the Purchase Agreement (including all subsections of Section 8.5), liability for breach of Express Representations, and indemnification obligations under any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing) subject to the

EXHIBIT L

limitations set forth in Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement, plus (b) one hundred percent (100%) of reasonable costs and expenses of collection incurred by Purchaser in enforcing its rights and remedies under this Guaranty as described in Section 8 below. The parties acknowledge that this Guaranty does not apply to the [Alley Obligations—Ia, III, and IV, the TI Obligations – III, the Easement Obligations – II, III, and the Completion Obligations – V], which are subject to a separate Post Closing Obligations Guaranty of even date herewith given by Guarantor for the benefit of Purchaser.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty, Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be limited to the payments and performance required to be made by Seller to Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement and under any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, subject to the limitations in Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement (which shall not exceed $ ), plus the amounts described in Section 8 below.

2. Except as expressly provided by this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby waives presentment, protest, notice of default, demand for payment and all other suretyship defenses whatsoever with respect to any obligation guaranteed under this Guaranty.

3. If Seller fails to make any payment to Purchaser or perform any obligation required under the Purchase Agreement (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement), Purchaser shall be entitled to make demand upon Guarantor for such payment or performance (hereinafter referred to as a “Demand”). Any Demand shall be in writing and shall state the amount Seller has failed to pay or the obligation Seller has failed to perform, shall contain a brief explanation of why such payment or performance is due, and a specific statement that Purchaser is calling upon Guarantor to pay such amount or perform such obligation under this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees to pay Purchaser amounts owing by Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or perform obligations of Seller within ten (10) days of receipt of a Demand therefor, and to pay to Purchaser any other amounts owing hereunder within ten (10) days of demand therefor. In no event shall Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty exceed Seller’s liability under the Purchase Agreement, as limited by Section 10.2, plus all other amounts described in Section 8 of this Guaranty.

4. Guarantor represents and warrants to Purchaser that:

(a) it is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Washington and has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of this Guaranty; and

(b) no authorization, approval, consent or order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental body having jurisdiction over Guarantor is required on the part of Guarantor for the execution and delivery of this Guaranty.

5. In the event Guarantor fails to make any payment to Purchaser or perform any obligation when required under this Guaranty, Purchaser may commence suit against Guarantor and/or exercise any available remedy at law or equity to enforce the provisions of this Guaranty without first commencing any suit or otherwise proceeding against Seller or exhausting its remedies against Seller. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection.

EXHIBIT L

6. This Guaranty is of a continuing nature and shall remain in full force and effect until all the terms, covenants, conditions, and agreements in this Guaranty are performed and until the later of the end of the Survival Period under the Purchase Agreement or the date upon which any alleged breach or default by Seller for which Purchaser gives notice prior to the expiration of the Survival Period pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement is resolved and any liability of Seller to Purchaser is satisfied (the later of which date shall be the “Guaranty Termination Date”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, if any payment made by Seller in satisfaction of any obligation of Seller under the Purchase Agreement is returned by Purchaser as a result of court order or directive or requirement of law, in connection with any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or receivership proceeding, or other similar proceeding, that obligation shall, for purposes of this Guaranty, be deemed to continue in existence to the extent of the payment returned as if the payment had never been made. Upon the Guaranty Termination Date, Purchaser shall execute a Termination and Release of Guarantee in a commercially reasonable form.

7. Intentionally Omitted.

8. If Purchaser takes any action (including, but not limited to, actions that are not the initiation of or participation in a proceeding) or participates in any proceeding to enforce this Guaranty, or to protect Purchaser’s rights hereunder (including, but not limited to, bankruptcy, appellate, and post-judgment proceedings), or shall be made a party to any action or proceeding arising out of this Guaranty, whether or not such action or proceeding is commenced prior to or after expiration or termination this Guaranty, the substantially prevailing party in such proceeding shall be entitled to recover from the other party all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or expended in connection therewith (whether or not incurred or expended prior to such action or proceeding). Further, a party shall be entitled to recover such reasonable costs, expenses and fees even if no formal action or proceeding is commenced.

9. Any act of Purchaser, or its successors or assigns, consisting of a waiver of any of the terms or conditions of the Purchase Agreement, or the giving of any consent to any manner or thing relating thereto, or the granting of any indulgences, renewals, extensions of time, releases, and discharges to Seller or any other guarantor, or the taking or releasing of any security for payment and performance of the Seller’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement, or the refraining from perfecting any interest in any security granted in connection with the Purchase Agreement or any other guarantee, may be done without notice to or consent from Guarantor and without releasing Guarantor from any of its obligations hereunder.

10. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be released by Purchaser’s receipt, application, release or impairment of any security or other collateral given for the performance and observance of any covenant or condition in the Purchase Agreement contained on Seller’s part to be performed or observed, nor by any modification thereof, nor any release or discharge of any other guarantor, regardless of whether Guarantor consents thereto or receives notice thereof.

EXHIBIT L

11. Guarantor shall be entitled to all defenses that Seller may have to its obligations under the Purchase Agreement that are guarantied by this Guaranty, except that the liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected by (a) the release or discharge of Seller in any receivership, bankruptcy or other similar proceeding; (b) the impairment, limitation or modification of any liability to Purchaser of Seller or the estate of Seller in bankruptcy, or the impairment, limitation or modification of any remedy for the enforcement of Seller’s liability under the Purchase Agreement resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency laws; (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of the Purchase Agreement in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding; (d) the assignment, transfer, or encumbrance of all or any portion of the Seller’s interest in the Purchase Agreement; or (e) any extension, renewal, amendment, expansion, or termination of the Purchase Agreement. Guarantor hereby waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of any event of default under the Purchase Agreement, opportunity to cure any event of default under the Purchase Agreement, and proof of notice or demand to Seller relating to any event of default. For so long as this Guaranty remains in effect, Guarantor hereby further waives any and all defenses based upon rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution with respect to Seller that are or may become available to it.

12. Guarantor further agrees that it may be joined in any action against Seller in connection with the obligations of Seller under the Purchase Agreement that are guarantied under this Guaranty and recovery may be had against Guarantor in any such action. Purchaser may enforce the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, at its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by law, and exercise its rights under this Guaranty and pursue any other guaranty or security or apply any other collateral it may hold, either prior to, concurrently with, or after, the exercise of its remedies for such default against Seller and/or its successors, assigns, and/or other guarantors under the Purchase Agreement, and Guarantor hereby waives all right to assert or plead at any time any and all surety or other similar defenses including, without limitation, any provision of law requiring Purchaser to proceed first or exhaust its recourse against Seller or any other guarantor. Guarantor hereby waives any and all rights to require marshalling of assets by Purchaser or to assert that Purchaser is required to pursue or enforce any other guaranty or letter of credit in any particular amount or in any particular order. This Guaranty is in addition to and not in substitution for any other guarantees held or which may hereafter be held by Purchaser.

13. For so long as this Guaranty is in effect, Guarantor (a) shall have no right of subrogation against Seller by reason of any payments or acts of performance by Guarantor hereunder; and (b) subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Seller now or hereafter held by Guarantor to the obligations of Seller to Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement which are guaranteed under this Guaranty. Guarantor waives any defense to payment or performance under this Guaranty based on any argument that Purchaser’s realization on any other security or collateral for the Purchase Agreement has impaired Guarantor’s subrogation rights. Guarantor acknowledges that it may seek to obtain a separate reimbursement agreement from the Seller covering amounts paid by Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the presence or absence of such a reimbursement agreement shall have no effect on Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty.

EXHIBIT L

14. This Guaranty shall apply to the Purchase Agreement and any modification, replacement, or amendment thereof.

15. If any provision (or portion or application of any provision) of this Guaranty is found to be invalid or inconsistent with applicable law then that provision (or the smallest portion or narrowest application of that provision that can be removed to render the provision valid) shall be severed from this Guaranty and the remainder of this Guaranty and the application of that provision to all circumstances where its application is valid shall not be affected thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

16. Notice hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective upon receipt or refusal to accept receipt, and shall be given by personal service, nationally recognized overnight courier service, or United States Mail, registered or certified delivery, return receipt requested, to the other party at its above address, except that under no circumstances shall Purchaser be obligated to give Guarantor any notice not specifically required to be given by Purchaser pursuant to this Guaranty. Either party may by notice given as aforesaid designate a different address for notice purposes.

17. This Guaranty shall in all respects be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Washington without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action hereunder shall be brought in the state or federal courts of competent jurisdiction in King County, Washington. Each of Purchaser and Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such state or federal court for such purposes. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor, its successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Purchaser, its successors and assigns. For purposes of this Guaranty, the word “Seller” shall also include the successors and assigns of Seller. No assignment by Guarantor shall release Guarantor from its obligations hereunder. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement and understanding between Guarantor and Purchaser with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.

18. Subject to any applicable statute of limitations, no delay on the part of Purchaser in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of Purchaser hereunder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or a waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion.

19. The first paragraph of Section 14.16 of the Purchase Agreement is incorporated into this Agreement by reference, with references therein to “Seller” deemed to be references to Guarantor. The provisions of Section 14.16, as incorporated herein, shall survive Closing or other termination of this Agreement.
