C. Title and Survey Objection.

In the event the Contributor, at their sole discretion, fail, or determine not to, cure any such unacceptable exceptions before Closing, then, on the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership shall either (1) waive the Operating Partnership’s objection to said unacceptable exceptions whereupon such unacceptable exceptions shall automatically be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions or (2) terminate this Agreement; and

E. Post Closing Real Estate Prorations and Payments.
Contributor shall be entitled to all rents due under the Leases for the period prior to Closing, and Operating Partnership shall be entitled to all rents due under the Leases from the date of Closing and thereafter. Contributor has advised Operating Partnership that under the terms of the Leases (as defined below), rent is paid one (1) month in arrears. As the result of the payment in arrears under the Leases, any rent owed under the Leases during the month in which the Closing occurs (the “Closing Month”) shall be prorated between Contributor and Operating Partnership based upon each parties’ period of ownership of the Property LLCs during the Closing Month. Following the payment of the Closing Month Rent, it is anticipated by the parties that the tenants under the Leases will begin making its regular monthly payments of rent to Operating Partnership, as the designated payee under the Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, under the terms of the Leases, the tenants are, among other things, required to make certain payments to Contributor and, if such payment obligations have not been satisfied by Closing, Operating Partnership hereby covenants and agrees that the first payments of rent that are paid to Operating Partnership after Closing shall be applied to any rent or other amounts then due but not paid under such Lease subsequent to Closing and any excess amount will be promptly delivered to Contributor until Contributor has received all of the monthly rent installments and other monetary obligations due, under the terms of the Leases for the period of time to and including the Closing Date. To the extent Contributor continues to receive rent under the Leases as payee following the tenants’ payments of the Closing Month Rent, Contributor agrees and covenants to forthwith tender such payments to Operating Partnership and to cooperate with Operating Partnership (at no cost to Contributor) to obtain the consent of the tenants under the Leases to designate Operating Partnership as the new payee under the Leases. Additionally, taxes and any expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the Properties, shall all be prorated as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately prior to Closing Date (i.e., Operating Partnership is responsible for the expenses on and after the Closing Date), on the basis of a 365-day year. To the extent actual expenses are not available, the parties shall use Contributor’s reasonable estimate of such expense at Closing and such expenses shall be re-prorated as soon as reasonably practical after the Closing Date. The parties acknowledge that certain reserves are required and held in escrow by the holders of the Existing Loans and the MCF for the payment of taxes, insurance, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions associated with the Properties (“Lender Reserves”). To the extent that Contributor has funded prior to Closing amounts in excess of Contributor’s pro rata portion of such expenditures to the Lender Reserves, such excess amounts shall be paid to Contributor. As to the remainder of the Lender Reserves, the parties agree that Operating Partnership shall pay to Contributor an amount equal to the remaining Lender Reserves, discounted by an amount to be established by the parties prior to Closing representing debt service attributable to the Lender Reserves for which Operating Partnership shall be obligated as a result of the assumption of the Existing Loans. This Section 9.E shall survive the Closing.

If the Operating Partnership elects not to terminate this Agreement (whether in its entirety or on a partial basis), then, as of the Closing, the Contributor shall deliver to the Operating Partnership the amount of any award or other proceeds on account of such taking, conveyance or casualty which have been actually paid to the Contributor or the Property LLCs prior to the Closing Date as a result of such taking, conveyance or casualty (less all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by the Contributor or the Property LLCs as of the Closing Date in obtaining payment of such proceeds or in repairing or restoring the Real Property) and, to the extent such award or proceeds have not been delivered to the Contributor or the Property LLCs, the Contributor shall assign to the Operating Partnership at Closing (without recourse to the Contributor) any rights of the Contributor to, and the Operating Partnership shall be entitled to receive and retain, all awards for the taking of the Real Property or any portion thereof or conveyance in lieu thereof or insurance proceed payable with respect to any damage, as the case may be (less the costs and expenses described above in this Section 9 to the extent not previously paid to the Contributor out of the award or proceeds for the applicable taking, conveyance in lieu thereof or casualty).
(ii) In the event of any casualty at any Property prior to Closing, the Contributor shall cause the relevant Property LLC to use reasonable and good faith efforts (subject to receipt of insurance proceeds) to repair and restore the Property prior to Closing. If, however, the repair or restoration is not completed prior to Closing, then the parties shall proceed to consummate the Closing and at Closing, the Contributor shall deliver to the Operating Partnership the amount of any insurance proceeds on account of such casualty which have been actually paid to the Contributor or the Property LLCs prior to the Closing Date as a result of such casualty (less all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by the Contributor or the Property LLCs as of the Closing Date in obtaining payment of such proceeds or in repairing or restoring the Real Property) and, to the extent such proceeds have not been delivered to the Contributor or the Property LLCs, the Contributor shall assign to the Operating Partnership at Closing (without recourse to the Contributor) any rights of the Contributor to, and the Operating Partnership shall be entitled to receive and retain, all insurance proceed payable with respect to any damage (less the costs and expenses described above in this Section 9 to the extent not previously paid to the Contributor out of the proceeds for the casualty).

F. Securities Law Matters
(i) In acquiring the OP Units and engaging in this transaction, the Contributor is not relying upon any representations made to it by the Operating Partnership, or any of the partners, officers, employees, affiliates or agents of the Operating Partnership or the REIT, except with respect to any representations set forth in this Agreement (as such representations may be modified in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). The Contributor is aware of the risks involved in investing in the OP Units. The Contributor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Operating Partnership or a person or persons authorized to act on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of this investment and the financial condition, affairs, and business of the Operating Partnership. The Contributor confirms that all documents, records, and information pertaining to its investment in the Operating Partnership that have been requested by it, including a complete copy of the organizational documents of each of the Operating Partnership and the REIT, have been made available or delivered to it prior to the date hereof. The Contributor represents and warrants that it has reviewed such documents and information as Contributor has deemed appropriate, and made its own investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Operating Partnership.
(ii) The Contributor understands that the OP Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities acts and are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such registration requirements. The OP Units are being acquired by such Contributor solely for its own account, for investment, and are not being acquired with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, subdivision, or fractionalization thereof, in violation of such laws, and no Contributor has any present intention to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with respect to any such resale. The Contributor understands that the OP Agreement will impose certain restrictions with respect to the transfer of the OP Units and, if the Operating Partnership elects to issue the Certificates, the Certificates will contain the following legend reflecting the requirement that the OP Units cannot be resold without registration under such laws or the availability of an exemption from such registration:
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE TRANSFEROR DELIVERS TO HC GOVERNMENT REALTY HOLDINGS, L.P., AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO HC GOVERNMENT REALTY HOLDINGS, L.P., TO THE EFFECT THAT THE PROPOSED SALE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS

(iv) The Contributor represents severally that neither it nor any affiliate of such Contributor is a member, affiliate of a member or person associated with a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Such Contributor further represents severally that neither it nor any of its affiliates owns any stock or other securities of any FINRA member not purchased in the open market, or has made any outstanding subordinated loans to an FINRA member. (A company or natural person is presumed to control a member of the FINRA and is therefore presumed to constitute an affiliate of such member if the company or person is the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the outstanding securities of a member which is a corporation. Additionally, a natural person is presumed to control a member of the FINRA and is therefore presumed to constitute an affiliate of such a member if such person has the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such member.)

Contributor shall not, however, be required to incur any out-of-pocket expense in order to satisfy or comply with a request from the Operating Partnership.
