Seller shall have a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Records Disposal Notice to enter the Property (or such other location where such records are then stored) and remove or copy those of Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records that Seller desires to retain.

5.4.11Accounts. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all accounts owned, held and/or maintained by or for the benefit of Seller, and all amounts from time to time on deposit therein (all of the foregoing collectively, the “Seller Accounts”): (i) are and shall remain or become the property of Seller, (ii) shall not be or remain the property of Property Owner and (iii) shall not be transferred, assigned or conveyed to Purchaser (either directly or through its acquisition of Property Owner) at Closing. Following Closing, Seller shall have the sole right to the Seller Accounts, including, without limitation, the right to cause the disbursement of any funds from time to time in the Seller Accounts. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all accounts owned, held and/or maintained by or for the benefit of the Property Owner, and all amounts from time to time on deposit therein (all of the foregoing collectively, the “Shared Accounts”): (i) are and shall remain the property of the Property Owner and (ii) Seller’s share through its indirect interests in Property Owner immediately prior to the Closing of all amounts in the Shared Accounts as of Closing shall be distributed to Seller. Following Closing, Seller shall no longer have any rights to the Shared Accounts, including, without limitation, the right to cause the disbursement of any funds from time to time in the Shared Accounts.

5.4.12[Omitted].

5.4.13Assumption, Transfer of Interest, or Prepayment of Existing Mortgage Financing.

5.4.13.1Subject to the following paragraph, Purchaser may pursue Existing Mortgage Lender’s approval of either an assumption or consent to the transfer of the equity in Property Owner with respect to the Existing Mortgage Financing. If such approval is granted by Existing Mortgage Lender, at Closing, without duplicating any other credit or proration provided for herein, the Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to 37.8147% of the outstanding principal and interest of the Existing Mortgage Financing as of the Closing Date.

5.4.13.2In the event Existing Mortgage Lender does not approve an assumption or consent to the transfer of the equity in the Property Owner with respect to the Existing Mortgage Financing or if Purchaser elects to pay off the Existing Mortgage Financing at Closing for any reason, at Closing the Existing Mortgage Financing shall be prepaid in full, in which case, a portion of the Purchase Price equal to 37.8147% of the outstanding principal and interest of the Existing Mortgage Financing as of the Closing Date shall be applied in repayment

of the Existing Mortgage and Purchaser shall cause all remaining amounts due under the Existing Mortgage Financing as of the Closing Date to be paid at the Closing.

5.5Post-Closing Adjustments. Purchaser or Seller may request that Purchaser and Seller undertake to re-adjust any item on the Proration Schedule (or any item omitted therefrom); provided, however, that neither party shall have any obligation to re-adjust any items for the Property Owner or the Property (a) after the expiration of one hundred eighty (180) days after Closing, and (b) subject to such 180-day period, unless such items exceed $5,000.00 in magnitude (either individually or in the aggregate); provided further, however, that the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply to real estate Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the terms and provisions of this Section 5.5 affect Purchaser’s or Property Owner’s obligations and covenants set forth in Section 7.6.2.

Article VI
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND PURCHASER

6.1Seller’s Representations. Except in all cases for any fact, information or condition disclosed in the Existing Title Policy and the Title Commitment (and within any document referenced therein), the Permitted Exceptions, the Property Contracts delivered to Purchaser, or of which Purchaser otherwise has actual knowledge, Seller represents and warrants (as qualified by (i) any schedules to this Contract and (ii) pursuant to Section 13.31, any permitted amendments or supplements to such schedules and/or any new schedules to this Contract) to Purchaser the following (collectively, the “Seller’s Representations”) as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date; provided that Purchaser’s remedies prior to Closing if any such Seller’s Representations are untrue as of the Closing Date are limited to those set forth in Section 8.1, provided, further however, that if untruthfulness of any such representation or warranty is caused, directly or indirectly, by any default by Seller under this Contract, Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise its rights and remedies under Section 10.2 below:

6.1.1Seller is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation set forth in the Transaction Information Schedule; has the entity power and authority to sell and convey the iStar Member Interests and to execute the documents to be executed by Seller and has taken all corporate, partnership, limited liability company or equivalent entity actions and obtained all necessary consents required for the execution and delivery of this Contract, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Contract. Neither the execution and delivery of this Contract nor the compliance with or fulfillment of the terms and conditions hereof, will conflict with, or result in a breach of, the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract or other agreement or instrument to which Seller or the Property Owner are a party or by which Seller or the Property Owner are otherwise bound or violate any applicable law or legal requirement, which conflict, breach, default or violation would have an adverse effect on Seller’s ability to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Contract or on the iStar Member Interests, or the Property Owner, or would be binding upon Purchaser or the Property Owner following Closing. This Contract is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms.

6.1.2Seller is not a “foreign person” as that term is used and defined in Code Section 1445.

6.1.3There are no actions, proceedings, litigation or governmental investigations or condemnation actions either pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened in

writing against the Property Owner which could reasonably be expected to adversely impact Seller’s ability to convey the iStar Member Interests to Purchaser.

6.1.4There are no Property Contracts to which Seller is a party.

6.1.5The Property Owner is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation.

6.1.6Seller owns 100% of the iStar Member Interests, free and clear of all liens, pledges, security interests, pledge, charges, Claims or other encumbrances. The Existing UTI Member Interests constitute the only other outstanding equity interests in Property Owner. There are no outstanding or authorized options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character, in each case of or issued by Seller, relating to the limited liability company interests in Property Owner or obligating Seller or the Property Owner, as applicable, to issue or sell any shares of capital stock of, or any other ownership interest in Property Owner. Property Owner does not have any outstanding or authorized any stock appreciation, phantom stock, profit participation or similar rights. There are no voting trusts, stockholder agreements, proxies or other agreements or understandings that will remain in effect with respect to the voting or transfer of any of the iStar Member Interests after Closing.

6.1.7Property Owner does not have any employees.

6.1.8The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of the transactions contemplated by this Contract do not and will not (1) violate any applicable code, resolution, law, statute, regulation, ordinance, judgment, rule, decree or order binding on Seller or Property Owner or (2) result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than this Contract) upon the iStar Member Interests.

6.1.9Since its inception, (a) Property Owner has not owned any assets other than the Property, operated any business other than its direct ownership of the Property, or been a party to any contract or agreement other than the Property Contracts, and (b) the Property Owner has no liabilities, obligations, guaranties, indemnities, losses, costs and expenses of any kind and description, whether accrued, absolute or contingent, direct or indirect, or matured or unmatured, other than (i) the Existing Mortgage Financing, (ii) the Property Contracts, (iii) the Lease, (iv) the Permitted Exceptions, (v) general organizational expenses incurred in the ordinary course (i.e. franchise taxes in all applicable jurisdictions), and (vi) any liabilities, obligations, guaranties, indemnities, losses, costs or expenses for which (y) have been discharged, or (z) Tenant is obligated to pay directly or reimburse Property Owner pursuant to the Lease.

6.1.10Seller has not (1) made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (2) filed any voluntary petition in bankruptcy or suffered the filing of any involuntary petition by its creditors, (3) suffered the appointment of a receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of its assets, (4) suffered the attachment or other judicial seizure of all, or substantially all, of its assets or (5) made an offer of settlement, extension, or composition to its creditors generally.

6.1.11The Property Owner Certificate and the Property Owner LLC Agreement (each as the same have been amended to date) are in full force and effect and true and complete copies thereof have been made available by Seller to Purchaser. Such organizational documents contain the entire agreement between the parties thereto.

6.1.12Seller is not a Prohibited Person. To Seller’s knowledge, none of its investors, affiliates or brokers or other agents (if any), acting or benefiting in any capacity in

connection with this Contract is a Prohibited Person. The assets Seller will transfer to Purchaser under this Contract are not the property of, or beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by a Prohibited Person. The assets Seller will transfer to Purchaser under this Contract are not the proceeds of specified unlawful activity as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 1956(c)(7).

6.1.13[Omitted]

6.1.14Except for the Broker, the fees and expenses of which are the sole responsibility of, and will be paid by, the Seller, no broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission, or the reimbursement of expenses, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Contract based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Seller or the Property Owner.

The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 6.1.1 (but only the first sentence of Section 6.1.1), 6.1.8, 6.1.9, 6.1.12 and 6.1.14 are referred to herein as the “Fundamental Representations”.

6.2AS-IS. Subject to the Seller’s Representations and the covenants and indemnities of Seller set forth in this Contract, the iStar Member Interests, are being conveyed and transferred to Purchaser in an “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition and “WITH ALL FAULTS” as of the Effective Date and as of Closing. Except for Seller’s Representations and the covenants and indemnities of Seller set forth in this Contract, no representations or warranties have been made or are made and no responsibility has been or is assumed by Seller or by any partner, officer, person, firm, agent, attorney or representative acting or purporting to act on behalf of Seller or Property Owner as to (a) the condition or state of repair of the Property; (b) the compliance or non-compliance of the iStar Member Interests or the Property with any applicable laws, regulations or ordinances (including, without limitation, any applicable zoning, building or development codes); (c) the value, expense of operation, or income potential of the iStar Member Interests or the Property; (d) any other fact or condition which has or might affect the iStar Member Interests or the Property or the condition, state of repair, compliance, value, expense of operation or income potential of the iStar Member Interests, the Property or any portion thereof; or (e) whether the Property contains asbestos or harmful or toxic substances or pertaining to the extent, location or nature of same. The parties agree that all understandings and agreements heretofore made between them or their respective agents or representatives are merged in this Contract and the Exhibits hereto annexed, which alone fully and completely express their agreement, and that this Contract has been entered into after full investigation, or with the parties satisfied with the opportunity afforded for full investigation, neither party relying upon any statement or representation by the other unless such statement or representation is specifically embodied in this Contract or the Exhibits annexed hereto.

Purchaser waives its and their respective rights to recover from, and forever releases and discharges the Seller’s Indemnified Parties from any and all demands, claims (including, without limitation, causes of action in tort), legal or administrative proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, fines, liens, judgments, costs or expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs), whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen (collectively, “Claims”), that may arise on account of or in any way be connected with the iStar Member Interests or the Property, the physical condition thereof, or any law or regulation applicable thereto (including, without limitation, claims under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C. Section 6901, et seq.) (“CERCLA”), the Resources Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (42 U.S.C. Section 6901, et seq.), the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. Section 1251, et seq.), the Safe Drinking Water Act (49 U.S.C. Section 1801, et seq.), the Hazardous Transportation Act (42 U.S.C. Section 6901, et seq.), and the Toxic Substance Control Act (15 U.S.C. Section 2601, et

seq.)), provided, however, that the foregoing release shall not affect or limit in any way Seller’s obligations hereunder following Closing arising out of a breach of Seller’s Representations or Seller’s covenants and indemnities of Seller set forth in this Contract or Seller’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation. Without limiting the foregoing but subject to Seller’s Representations, covenants and indemnities set forth in this Contract and Seller’s fraud and intentional material misrepresentation, Purchaser, upon Closing, shall be deemed to have waived, relinquished and released Seller and all Seller’s Indemnified Parties from any and all Claims arising out of latent or patent defects or physical conditions of the Property, violations of applicable laws (including, without limitation, any environmental laws) relating to the Property. As part of the provisions of this Section 6.2, but not as a limitation thereon, Purchaser hereby agrees, represents and warrants that the matters released herein are not limited to matters which are known or disclosed, and Purchaser hereby waives any and all rights and benefits which it now has, or in the future may have conferred upon it, by virtue of the provisions of federal, state or local law, rules and regulations, provided however, that the foregoing release shall not affect or limit in any way Seller’s obligations hereunder following Closing arising out of a breach of Seller’s Representations, covenants and indemnities set forth in this Contract. Purchaser agrees that should any cleanup, remediation or removal of hazardous substances or other environmental conditions on or about the Property be required after the date of Closing, such clean-up, removal or remediation shall not be the responsibility of Seller. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser hereby agrees that, if at any time after the Closing, any third-party or governmental authority seeks to hold Purchaser or Property Owner responsible for the presence of, or any loss, cost or damage associated with, hazardous substances in, on, above or beneath the Property or emanating therefrom, then Purchaser waives on behalf of itself and Property Owner and on behalf of each of their respective successors and assigns and each and all of its and their respective direct and indirect members, officers, directors, employees, parents, affiliates or subsidiaries and each of their respective successors and assigns (collectively the “Waiver Parties”), any rights Purchaser or any Waiver Party may have against Seller in connection therewith, including under CERCLA, and Purchaser agrees for itself and all Waiver Parties that neither Purchaser nor any of the Waiver Parties shall (1) implead Seller, (2) bring a contribution action or similar action against Seller or (3) attempt in any way to hold Seller responsible with respect to any such matter.

The waivers and releases set forth this Section 6.2 include Claims of which Purchaser or any Waiver Party is presently unaware or which Purchaser or any Waiver Party does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by Purchaser or a Waiver Party, would materially affect Purchaser’s and such Waiver Party’s waiver or release of Seller and the other parties referenced in this Section.

The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall survive the Closing.

6.3Survival of Seller’s Representations. Seller and Purchaser agree that (i) Seller’s Representations (other than the Fundamental Representations) shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months (the “General Representations Survival Period”); and (ii) the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing for a period of three (3) years, except that (A) the Fundamental Representation set forth in Section 6.1.9 shall survive Closing for the applicable statute of limitations and (B) the Fundamental Representations set forth in Sections 6.1.12 shall survive the Closing for a period of three (3) years (as applicable, the “Fundamental Representations Survival Period”) (the General Representations Survival Period and the Fundamental Representations Survival Period, as applicable to the Seller’s Representations covered thereby as set forth in this Section 6.3 above, the “Applicable Survival Period”). Seller shall not have any liability after the Applicable Survival Period with respect to any of Seller’s Representations contained herein (which are subject to such Applicable Survival Period) except to the extent that (a) Purchaser has delivered written notice to Seller during such Applicable

Survival Period alleging that Seller is in breach of any such Seller’s Representations (which are subject to such Applicable Survival Period) and specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such breach, and (b) Purchaser has commenced litigation against Seller by filing and serving a lawsuit, for breach of any such Seller’s Representations (which are subject to such Applicable Survival Period) within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Applicable Survival Period. Purchaser shall not be entitled to bring any Claim arising out of (A) any breaches of any of Seller’s Representations, and/or (B) all other representations, warranties, liabilities, covenants, indemnities and/or obligations of Seller under this Contract unless the Claim for Losses (either in the aggregate or as to any individual Claim) by Purchaser for all such matters exceeds $50,000.00 (in which case Seller shall be liable back to the first dollar). In the event that Seller breaches any of Seller’s Representations and Purchaser had actual knowledge of such breach (i) upon Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Contract, and Purchaser nevertheless executes and delivers this Contract, or (ii) at or prior to Closing, and Purchaser nevertheless elects to close, then in each case Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any of its rights in connection therewith and Seller shall not have any liability in connection therewith. Seller shall not have any liability in connection with a breach of any of Seller’s Representation which is due to the acts or omissions of Purchaser, Tenant, or any affiliate of either Purchaser or Tenant.

PURCHASER IS FAMILIAR WITH, AND HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS, IF ANY, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY TO COMMENCE A LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST SELLER RELATING TO THE PROPERTY OR THE ISTAR MEMBER INTERESTS OR A BREACH OF A REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, COVENANT OR CONDITION MADE IN THIS CONTRACT BY SELLER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, AT ANY TIME AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE APPLICABLE SURVIVAL PERIOD (OR THE EXPIRATION OF THE THIRTY (30) DAY PERIOD FOLLOWING THE EXPIRATION OF THE APPLICABLE SURVIVAL PERIOD IF PROPER WRITTEN NOTICE IS DELIVERED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 6.3).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the failure of any such condition precedent is a result of a default or breach by Seller, Purchaser shall also be entitled to exercise its remedies pursuant to Section 10.2 below.

8.2Seller’s Conditions to Closing. Without limiting any of the rights of Seller elsewhere provided for in this Contract, Seller’s obligation to close with respect to the conveyance of the iStar Member Interests under this Contract shall be subject to and conditioned upon the fulfillment of the following conditions precedent:

8.2.1All of the documents and funds required to be delivered by Purchaser to Seller at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall have been delivered;

8.2.2Each of the representations and warranties of Purchaser contained herein shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;

8.2.3Purchaser shall have complied with, fulfilled and performed in all material respects each of the covenants, terms and conditions to be complied with, fulfilled or performed by Purchaser hereunder;

8.2.4There shall not be pending any litigation or, to the knowledge of either Purchaser or Seller, any threatened litigation, which, if determined adversely, would restrain the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Contract or declare illegal, invalid or nonbinding any of the covenants or obligations of the Purchaser; and

8.2.5In the event the transfer of the iStar Member Interests from Seller to Purchaser is approved by the Existing Mortgage Lender, the Existing Mortgage Lender shall have provided written confirmation of release of Seller and any affiliate of Seller from any and all obligations with respect to the Existing Mortgage Financing, including, without limitation, any guaranties and environmental indemnities provided by Seller and any affiliate of Seller; and

If any of the foregoing conditions to Seller’s obligation to close with respect to the conveyance of the iStar Member Interests under this Contract are not met, Seller may (a) waive any of the foregoing conditions and proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, or (b) terminate this Contract by providing written notice thereof to Purchaser, and, if such failure (I) does not constitute a material default by Purchaser, then this Contract shall terminate and be of no further force and effect subject to and except for the Surviving Provisions, or (II) does constitute a material default by Purchaser, then Seller may exercise any of Seller’s remedies under Section 10.1.

Article IX
BROKERAGE

9.1Indemnity. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that Seller is represented by only Eastdil Secured, L.L.C. (“Broker”) in connection with this Contract and that Seller is solely responsible for any commissions or finder’s fees relating to the engagement of Broker and Broker’s services pursuant thereto. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that Purchaser is not represented by any broker in connection with this Contract. Seller and Purchaser each represents and warrants to the other that, other than Broker, it has not dealt with or utilized the services of any other real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this Contract, and each party agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and, if requested in the sole and absolute discretion of the indemnitee, defend (with counsel approved by the indemnitee) the other party from and against all Losses relating to brokerage commissions and finder’s fees arising from or attributable to the acts or omissions of the indemnifying party, which obligation shall survive the Closing.

9.2Broker Commission. If, as and when the Closing occurs, Seller agrees to pay Broker a commission according to the terms of a separate contract. Broker shall not be deemed a party or third party beneficiary of this Contract.

Article X
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1Purchaser Default. As long as Seller is not then in material default of its covenants and obligations hereunder, if Purchaser, prior to Closing, defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver to Seller the deliveries specified under Section 5.3 by Closing, or (b) deliver the Purchase Price at the time required by Section 2.2.4 and close on the purchase of the iStar Member Interests on the Closing Date, then, immediately and without the right to receive notice or to cure pursuant to Section 2.3.3, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy, neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the iStar Member Interests and neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except for the Surviving Provisions. If Purchaser, prior to Closing, defaults in any material respect under any of its other representations, warranties or obligations under this Contract, and such default continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Seller, then, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy, neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the iStar Member Interests and neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except for the Surviving Provisions.

10.2Seller Default. As long as Purchaser is not then in material default of its covenants and obligations hereunder if Seller, prior to the Closing, materially defaults in its covenants or obligations under this Contract, and such material default continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Purchaser (it being acknowledged, however, that no such cure period shall be applicable to a default by Seller to deliver to Purchaser the deliveries specified under section 5.2 by Closing or sell the iStar Member Interests as required by this Contract on the Closing Date), then, at Purchaser’s election and as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, either (a) subject to the conditions below, Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Contract, including, without limitation, to deliver the Membership Interests Assignment pursuant to this Contract (but not damages) or (b) Purchaser may deliver written notice to Seller of Purchaser’s decision to terminate this Contract, in which case this Contract shall terminate and be of no further force and effect subject to and except for the Surviving Provisions. If Purchaser elects to seek specific performance in accordance with clause (a) in the immediately preceding sentence and subsequently receives a final judgement that such remedy is unavailable due to an act of Seller, Seller shall reimburse

Purchaser (within ten (10) days of Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s written notice and evidence of such costs) the actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ and consultants’ fees) incurred by Purchaser in connection with this Contract and/or the transaction contemplated hereby up to a maximum reimbursement of such out-of-pocket costs of $250,000 in the aggregate. Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Contract only if, as a condition precedent to initiating such litigation for specific performance, Purchaser first shall (i) deliver all Closing deliveries (other than the Purchase Price) to Escrow Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, including, without limitation, Section 5.3; (ii) not otherwise be in material default under this Contract; and (iii) file suit therefor with the court on or before ninety (90) days after the delivery of all Purchaser Closing deliveries (other than the Purchase Price) to Escrow Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, including, without limitation, and Section 5.3; if Purchaser fails to file an action for specific performance within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate the Contract in accordance with Section 10.2(b) above.

SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.2 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE PURCHASER AND THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO PURCHASER, AND SHALL BE PURCHASER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY SELLER OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS PRIOR TO CLOSING OR ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT PRIOR TO CLOSING. THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS CONTRACT. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY SELLER OR PURCHASER SEEK OR BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, SPECULATIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, ALL OF WHICH SELLER AND PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES, FROM THE OTHER FOR ANY BREACH BY SELLER AND PURCHASER, OF THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT. THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR THE EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS CONTRACT. PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIS PENDENS OR ANY LIEN AGAINST THE PROPERTY UNLESS AND UNTIL IT HAS IRREVOCABLY ELECTED TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF THIS CONTRACT AND HAS FILED AND IS DILIGENTLY PURSUING AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 10.2 IS INTENDED TO LIMIT SELLER’S OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES UNDER SECTIONS 6.2, 7.6 OR 7.7 HEREUNDER.

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1Binding Effect of Contract. This Contract shall not be binding on any party until executed by Purchaser and all Seller. The Escrow Agent’s execution of this Contract shall not be a prerequisite to its effectiveness.

13.2Exhibits and Schedules. All Exhibits and Schedules, whether or not annexed hereto, are a part of this Contract for all purposes.

13.3Assignability. This Contract is not assignable by Purchaser without first obtaining the prior written approval of Seller and is not assignable by Seller without first obtaining the prior written approval of Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign this Contract, without first obtaining the prior written approval of Seller, to facilitate the acquisition of the iStar Member Interests by a separate entity formed by Purchaser or other affiliate of Purchaser, so long as (a) Purchaser is an affiliate of the purchasing entity, (b) Purchaser is not released from its liability hereunder, and (c) Purchaser provides written notice to Seller of any proposed assignment no later than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date. As used herein, an affiliate is a person or entity controlled by, under common control with, or controlling another person or entity. Any transfer after the date hereof of a majority of the stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other beneficial interests of Purchaser, whether in a single transaction or in a series of transactions, without obtaining the prior written consent of Seller, shall be deemed a prohibited assignment by Purchaser of its interest hereunder. No transfer or assignment by Purchaser in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or enforceable.

13.4Captions. The captions, headings, and arrangements used in this Contract are for convenience only and do not in any way affect, limit, amplify, or modify the terms and provisions hereof.

All notices shall be deemed effective when actually delivered as documented in a delivery receipt; provided, however, that if the notice was sent by overnight courier or mail as aforesaid and is affirmatively refused or cannot be delivered during customary business hours by reason of the absence of a signatory to acknowledge receipt, or by reason of a change of address with respect to which the addressor did not have either knowledge or written notice delivered in accordance with this paragraph, then the first attempted delivery shall be deemed to constitute delivery. Notices given by counsel to a party shall be deemed given by such party. Each party shall be entitled to change its address for notices from time to time by

delivering to the other party notice thereof in the manner herein provided for the delivery of notices. All notices shall be sent to the addressee at its address set forth following its name below:

13.12Construction. No provision of this Contract shall be construed in favor of, or against, any particular party by reason of any presumption with respect to the drafting of this Contract; both parties, being represented by counsel, having fully participated in the negotiation of this instrument.

13.13Confidentiality. Each of Seller and Purchaser acknowledges that all information and material obtained by Purchaser in connection with its investigation of the iStar Member Interests and the Property and the terms and conditions of this Contract and the existence of the transactions contemplated by this Contract (collectively, the “Confidential Information”) are strictly confidential. Each of Seller and Purchaser may disclose the Confidential Information only to its affiliates, actual and potential investment and/or operating partners, providers of equity, title insurers, financial advisors, potential lenders and lenders (and rating agencies, if necessary), brokers, accountants and attorneys (“Permitted Recipients”) who are directly involved in the transactions contemplated by this Contract and who have been notified of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information. Neither party nor any of its Permitted Recipient shall disclose the Confidential Information to any other person or party. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit disclosure of any Confidential Information as required by applicable law, rule, regulation or legal, administrative, judicial process (including any requested disclosure by any regulatory or supervisory authority). In permitting Purchaser and its Permitted

Recipients to review any Confidential Information, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of confidentiality with respect thereto, and no third-party benefits or relationships of any kind, either express or implied, have been offered, intended or created. Seller shall have the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Seller, at law and/or in equity, as a result of any breach by Purchaser or any of its permitted recipients of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2015, and Purchaser shall be responsible to Seller for any such breach of the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, except to the extent required by applicable law, rule, regulation or legal, administrative, judicial process (including any requested disclosure by any regulatory or supervisory authority), neither Purchaser nor Seller shall issue any press release or otherwise permit any public announcement disclosing the terms of the sale, naming the other party or any of its affiliates as having any involvement in the transaction, without the other party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

13.14Time of the Essence. It is expressly agreed by the parties hereto that time is of the essence with respect to this Contract and any aspect thereof.

13.15Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission, or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. No waiver, amendment, release, or modification of this Contract shall be established by conduct, custom, or course of dealing and all waivers must be in writing and signed by the waiving party.

13.16Attorneys’ Fees. In the event either party hereto commences litigation or arbitration against the other to enforce its rights hereunder, the prevailing party in such litigation shall recover from the other party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incidental to such litigation and arbitration, including the cost of in-house counsel and any appeals. Nothing in this Contract shall create in favor of any party hereto (and nothing in this Contract shall be deemed to create in favor of any party hereto) the right to commence any arbitration proceeding in connection with, or as a result of any matter or dispute arising under, this Contract.

13.17Time Zone/Time Periods. Any reference in this Contract to a specific time shall refer to Pacific Time. Should the last day of a time period fall on a weekend or legal holiday, the next Business Day thereafter shall be considered the end of the time period.

13.19[Omitted]

13.20ADA Disclosure. Without limiting Seller’s Representations, Purchaser acknowledges that the Property may be subject to the federal Americans With Disabilities Act (the “ADA”).

13.21No Recording. Purchaser shall not cause or allow this Contract or any contract or other document related hereto, nor any memorandum or other evidence hereof, to be recorded or become a public record without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld at Seller’s sole discretion. If Purchaser records this Contract or any other memorandum or evidence thereof, Purchaser shall be in default of its obligations under this Contract, and Purchaser shall be solely responsible for any transfer or recordation Taxes incurred as a result thereof.

13.24Waiver of Trial by Jury. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF THIS CONTRACT.

Purchaser further agrees that Purchaser will not use the Seller Marks for any purpose.

13.26[Omitted].

13.27Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Contract.

13.28Survival. Except for (a) all of the provisions of this Article XIII; (b) Sections 2.3, 5.4, 5.5, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.5, 7.6, and 9.1; and (c) any other provisions in this Contract, that by their express terms survive the Closing (the foregoing (a), (b) and (c) are referred to herein as the “Surviving Provisions”), none of the terms and provisions of this Contract shall survive the Closing, and all of the terms and provisions of this Contract (other than the Surviving Provisions, which shall survive the Closing) shall be merged into the Closing documents and shall not survive the Closing and no party hereto shall have any liability hereunder after the Closing in respect of such provisions that do not survive the Closing.

13.29Multiple Purchasers. As used in this Contract, the term “Purchaser” means all entities acquiring any of the iStar Member Interests at the Closing, including, without limitation, any assignee(s) of the original Purchaser pursuant to Section 13.3 of this Contract. In the event

that “Purchaser” has any obligations or makes any covenants, representations or warranties under this Contract, the same shall be made jointly and severally by all entities being a Purchaser hereunder.

13.30Incorporation of Recitals, Exhibits and Schedules. The recitals to this Contract, and all exhibits and schedules (as amended, modified and supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 13.31) referred to in this Contract are incorporated herein by such reference and made a part of this Contract. Any matter disclosed in any schedule to this Contract shall be deemed to be incorporated in all other schedules to this Contract.

13.31Updates of Schedules. Seller shall have the right to amend and supplement any schedule, or provide a new schedule, to this Contract from time to time without Purchaser’s consent to the extent that (i) such schedule needs to be amended, supplemented, or provided to maintain the truth or accuracy of the applicable Seller’s Representation or the information disclosed therein, and (ii) such Seller did not have knowledge as of the Effective Date of the matter being disclosed in such amendment, supplement, or new schedule provided, however, that any amendment or supplement to the schedules to this Contract shall have no effect for the purposes of determining whether the condition in Section 8.1.2 has been satisfied, but shall have effect only for the purposes of limiting the defense and indemnification obligations of the Seller for the inaccuracy or untruth of the representation or warranty qualified by such amendment or supplement following the Closing in the event Purchaser does not exercise its right to terminate this Contract. In addition, nothing shall be deemed to limit Purchaser’s rights hereunder in the event the amendment or supplement to the schedules is a result of a default in Seller’s covenants and obligations hereunder.

13.32Not an Offer. The delivery by Seller of this Contract shall not constitute an offer to sell the iStar Member Interests, Property Owner, or the Property, and Seller shall have no obligation to sell the iStar Member Interests to Purchaser, unless and until Purchaser and Seller have each executed and delivered this Contract to the other party.
