CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.2

This CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 14, 2019 by and among Unlimited Postal Holdings, LP, a Texas limited partnership, (“Contributor”), Postal Realty LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and Postal Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the“ REIT”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Contributor is the direct or indirect owner of the properties described on Exhibit A hereto (each a “Property” and collectively, the “Properties” or the “Contributed Interests”);

WHEREAS, Contributor desires to contribute the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership desires to acquire the Contributed Interests from Contributor, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties and other terms contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE CONTRIBUTION

1.1 Contribution of Contributed Interests. Contributor irrevocably agrees to contribute, transfer and assign at the Closing (as defined herein) the Contributed Interests, and the Operating Partnership agrees to accept transfer of the Contributed Interests and any such other interests pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Contributor shall transfer the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, voting agreements, prior assignments or conveyances, conditions, restrictions, claims, and any other matters affecting title thereto.

1.2 Consideration.

(a) Consideration Amount. The total consideration (the “Consideration”) for which Contributor agrees to contribute, transfer and assign the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership, and for which the Operating Partnership agrees to pay, issue or deliver to Contributor, subject to the terms of this Agreement, at Closing shall be the amount of cash and number of common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) set forth on Exhibit A as “Total Consideration.” The Consideration may be adjusted, upward or downward, by the amount of any adjustments arising from the Prorations (as defined herein). Any decrease or increase in the Consideration as a result of the Prorations will adjust the Consideration payable hereunder in the form of OP Units based on the IPO Price.

(b) OP Units. Any portion of the Consideration payable hereunder to be in the form of OP Units shall be registered in the name of Contributor. OP Units will not be delivered to Contributor unless Section 2.2(j) hereof is true and correct as of the Closing Date (as defined herein). No fractional OP Units will be issued and OP Units will be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Consideration, whether in cash, in OP Units or a combination thereof, may be reduced by the amount the Operating Partnership reasonably determines must be withheld for tax purposes. The rights and obligations of holders of OP Units as of the Closing will be as set forth in the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), the form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the REIT’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333- 230684), which the REIT filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 2, 2019. Although initially the OP Units will not be certificated, certificates, if any, subsequently evidencing the OP Units will bear appropriate legends (i) indicating that the OP Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (ii) indicating that the Partnership Agreement will restrict the transfer of the OP Units, and (iii) describing the ownership limitations and transfer restrictions imposed by the charter of the REIT with respect to shares of the REIT’s capital stock.

1.3 No Further Interest. Contributor acknowledges and agrees that effective upon the Closing, and without any further action by Contributor, the Contributed Interests shall be transferred, assigned and conveyed to the Operating Partnership, or a subsidiary thereof, and Contributor shall no longer have any further right, title or interest in any of the Contributed Interests, other than indirectly through the ownership of any OP Units.

1.4 Tax Consequences to Contributor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including without limitation the use of words and phrases such as “sell,” “sale,” “purchase,” and “pay,” the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) all indebtedness to be assumed by the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be treated as “qualified liabilities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(a)(5); and (ii) therefore, the Contribution be treated as a nontaxable contribution by the Contributor of the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership under Section 721(a) of the Code, with no gain required to be recognized by the Contributor or any partner in the Contributor as a result thereof. Except as otherwise provided in the Tax Protection Agreement, no Party shall take any position on any tax return that is inconsistent with the foregoing treatment except as required by law.

1.5 Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Contributor’s Percentage Interest” means, with respect to each Contributed Interest, the percentage set forth on Exhibit A hereto under the heading “Contributed Interest”, which reflects the Contributor’s percentage ownership interest in each Property.

“IPO” means the underwritten initial public offering of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the REIT.

“IPO Price” means the public offering price set forth on the front cover of the final prospectus for the IPO (the “Prospectus”), to be filed by the REIT with the SEC.

“Post-Closing Tax Period” means any taxable period that begins after the Closing Date. “Pre-Closing Tax Period” means any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or

before the end of the Closing Date.

“Prorations” means those proration and adjustment amounts that are customarily applied to closings of commercial real estate transactions in the county in which the Property is located, which amounts shall be calculated as of midnight (Eastern time) of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. Contributor shall be entitled to Contributor’s share of all income and responsible for Contributor’s share of all expenses of the Contributed Interest for the period of time up to but not including the Closing Date, and the Operating Partnership shall be entitled to all such income and responsible for all such expenses for the period of time after and including the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following items of income and expense shall be prorated at Closing:

(A)

Taxes. All real estate and personal property taxes and special assessments, if any, with respect to each Property shall be prorated at the Closing;

(B)

Utilities. All telephone, electric, sewer, water and other utility bills, trash removal bills, janitorial and maintenance service bills and all other expenses relating to a Property, and which are allocable to the period prior to the Closing Date shall be determined and paid, or caused to be paid, by the Contributor before the Closing, if possible, or if such is not determinable before the Closing, then the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to determine and pay such amounts as promptly as possible following the Closing and the Operating Partnership may withhold from any cash amount of the Consideration payable at the Closing hereunder an amount of cash reasonably estimated to cover any estimated Proration for the items described in this subsection (B);

(C)

Rents. All rents, including, without limitation, base rents, operating expense payments or common area maintenance charges and all other forms of additional rents, payable under the leases for the Property and all other income from the Property shall be prorated at the Closing; and

This Agreement, and each agreement, document and instrument executed and delivered by or on behalf of Contributor pursuant to this Agreement, constitutes, or when executed and delivered will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of Contributor, enforceable against Contributor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy or the application of equitable principles.

(b) Noncontravention. Neither the entry into nor the performance of, or compliance with, this Agreement by Contributor has resulted, or will result, in any violation of, or default under, or result in the acceleration of, any obligation under any charter, bylaws, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement, declaration of trust, mortgage indenture, lien agreement, note, contract, agreement, permit, judgment, decree, order, restrictive covenant, statute, rule, or regulation applicable to Contributor or to any Contributed Interests.

(c) Litigation. There is no action, suit, or proceeding, pending or known to be threatened, against or affecting Contributor in any court or before any arbitrator or before any federal, state, municipal, or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality which (1) in any manner raises any question affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, (2) could materially and adversely affect the business, financial position, or results of operations of Contributor or Property, (3) could adversely affect the ability of Contributor to perform its obligations hereunder, or under any document to be delivered pursuant hereto, (4) could create a lien on the Contributed Interests, any part thereof, or any interest therein, or (5) could adversely affect the Contributed Interests, any part thereof, or any interest therein.

(d) Good Title. Exhibit A accurately sets forth Contributor’s Percentage Interest. Contributor is the sole record and beneficial owner of the Contributed Interests and has full power and authority to convey the Contributed Interests pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Contributor has good and marketable title to the Contributed Interests. No person has any community property rights, by virtue of marriage or otherwise, with respect to the Contributed Interests.

No other person or entity has an option to purchase or a right of first refusal to purchase the Contributed Interests nor are there any agreements or understandings with respect to the voting, ownership or disposition of the Contributed Interests that could adversely affect Contributor’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder or the Operating Partnership’s ownership of the Contributed Interests following the Closing.

(g) Actions Prior to Closing. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Contributor shall not take any action or fail to take any action the result of which would (1) have a material adverse effect on the Contributed Interests or the Operating Partnership’s ownership thereof, or any material adverse effect on the assets, business, condition (financial or otherwise), results or operation of any Property after the Closing Date or (2) cause any of the representations and warranties contained in this Section 2.2 to be untrue as of the Closing Date.

(h) [Reserved]

(i) Securities Law Matters.

(1) In deciding to engage in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, if applicable, acquiring OP Units, neither Contributor nor any equity holder thereof is relying upon any representations made to it by the Operating Partnership, or any of its partners, officers, employees, or agents that are not contained herein. Contributor is aware of the risks involved in investing in the OP Units and in the securities issuable upon redemption of the OP Units. Contributor is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in business and financial matters and fully understands the limitations on transfer imposed by the federal securities laws and as described in this Agreement and related materials, including the Partnership Agreement. Contributor has received the Partnership Agreement and related materials, including the registration statement filed by the REIT with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the IPO, has reviewed all documents and has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Operating Partnership and the REIT or a person or persons authorized to act on their behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of an investment in the OP Units and the financial condition, affairs, and business of the Operating Partnership and the REIT. Contributor confirms that all documents, records, and information pertaining to its investment in OP Units that have been requested by Contributor have been made available or delivered to Contributor prior to the date hereof.

(2) Contributor and each equity holder thereof understands that the offer and sale of OP Units have not been registered under any state or federal securities laws and are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such registration requirements and that the Operating Partnership’s reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of Contributor contained herein. The OP Units issuable to Contributor are being acquired by 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 Contributor does not have any present intention to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with respect to any such resale.

(3) Contributor is able to bear the economic risk of holding the OP Units for an indefinite period and is able to afford the complete loss of its investment in the OP Units.

(4) Contributor understands that no federal agency (including the SEC) or state agency has made or will make any finding or determination as to the fairness of an investment in the OP Units (including as to the value of the Consideration payable in OP Units).

(5) Contributor understands that there is no established public, private or other market for the OP Units to be issued to Contributor hereunder and it is not anticipated that there will be any public, private or other market for such OP Units in the foreseeable future.

(6) Contributor understands that Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act is not currently available with respect to the sale of OP Units.

(j) Accredited Investor. If Contributor has elected to receive OP Units as some or all of the Consideration as set forth on Exhibit A, Contributor is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act, and has previously provided the Operating Partnership and the REIT with a duly executed questionnaire confirming Contributor’s accredited investor status. No event or circumstance has occurred since delivery of such questionnaire to make the statements therein false or misleading.

Tax Matters. (1) Contributor represents and warrants that it has obtained from its own tax advisors advice regarding the tax consequences of (i) the transfer of the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership and the receipt of OP Units and/or cash or deemed assumption of debt as the Consideration therefor, (ii) its admission as a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, if applicable, (iii) any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement and (iv) ownership of OP Units, including the effect of Section 704(c) of the Code. Neither the Operating Partnership nor the REIT has made any representation to Contributor regarding the tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Contributor further represents and warrants that it has not relied on the Operating Partnership or the Operating Partnership’s representatives or counsel for any tax advice.

(2)

Contributor represents and warrants to the Operating Partnership and the REIT to each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 1.14 of the Representation, Warranty and Indemnity Agreement as if they were set forth herein.

(k) Bankruptcy with respect to Contributor. No Act of Bankruptcy (as defined below) has occurred with respect to Contributor. As used herein, “Act of Bankruptcy” means if Contributor or any equity holder, partner, manager or director thereof shall (A) apply for or consent to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (B) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, (C) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (D) file a voluntary petition or commence a voluntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), (E) be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, (F) file a petition seeking to take advantage of any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, dissolution, winding-up or composition or adjustment of debts, (G) fail to controvert in a timely and appropriate manner, or acquiesce in writing to, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), or (H) take any entity action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

(l) Brokerage Commission. Contributor has not engaged the services of any real estate agent, broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or finder’s fee, commission or other amount with respect to the transactions described herein.

(m) No Other Ownership. Except for the Contributed Interests, neither Contributor nor any of its affiliates owns any interest in any Property other than through the Contributed Interests.

ARTICLE III

INDEMNIFICATION

3.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties; Remedy for Breach.

(a) Subject to Section 3.5 hereof, all representations and warranties of Contributor contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule, Exhibit, certificate or affidavit delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.4 hereof, following the Closing, Contributor shall be liable under this Agreement for monetary damages (or otherwise) for breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule, Exhibit, certificate or affidavit delivered by Contributor pursuant thereto.

3.2 General Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, Contributor shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Operating Partnership and the REIT, and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, partners, agents and affiliates (each of which is an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, amounts paid in settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of investigation, judicial or administrative proceedings or appeals therefrom and costs of attachment or similar bonds (collectively, “Losses”) asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Party, to the extent resulting from any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Contributor contained in this Agreement, or in any Schedule, Exhibit, certificate or affidavit delivered by Contributor pursuant thereto. In each case, Contributor shall only bear the fees, costs or expenses in connection with the employment of one counsel and any necessary local counsel (regardless of the number of Indemnified Parties).

(b) Contributor shall also indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Parties to the extent resulting a third-party claim relating to the Contributed Interests arising from matters that occurred prior to the Closing.

(c) With respect to any indemnification claim by an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 3.2, to the extent available, the Operating Partnership agrees to use diligent good faith efforts to pursue and collect any and all available proceeds and benefits of any right to defense under any insurance policy that covers the matter which is the subject of the indemnification prior to seeking indemnification from Contributor until all proceeds and benefits, if any, to which the Operating Partnership or the Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to such insurance policy have been exhausted; provided, however, that the Operating Partnership may make a claim under this Section 3.2 even if an insurance coverage dispute is pending, in which case, if the Indemnified Party later receives insurance proceeds with respect to any Losses paid by Contributor for the benefit of any Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall reimburse Contributor in an amount equivalent to such proceeds in excess of any deductible amount pursuant to Section 3.2(a) hereof up to the amount actually paid (or deemed paid) by Contributor to the Indemnified Party in connection with such indemnification (it being understood that all costs and expenses incurred by Contributor with respect to insurance coverage disputes shall constitute Losses paid by Contributor for purposes of Section 3.2(a) hereof).

3.3 Notice and Defense of Claims. As soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any liability or claim incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified Party that is subject to indemnification under this Article III, the Indemnified Party shall give notice thereof to Contributor, including liabilities or claims to be applied against the indemnification deductible established pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof; provided that failure to give notice to Contributor will not relieve Contributor from any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party, unless, and only to the extent that, such failure (a) shall have caused prejudice to the defense of such claim or (b) shall have materially increased the costs or potential liability of Contributor by reason of the inability or failure of Contributor (due to such lack of prompt notice) to be involved in any investigations or negotiations regarding any such claim. Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the facts known to such Indemnified Party giving rise to such claim, and the amount or good faith estimate of the amount of Losses arising therefrom. Unless prohibited by law, such Indemnified Party shall deliver to Contributor, promptly after such Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents received by such Indemnified Party relating to such claim. The Indemnified Party shall permit Contributor, at Contributor’s option and expense, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel selected by Contributor and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and to settle or otherwise dispose of the same; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may at all times participate in such defense at its sole expense; and provided further, however, that Contributor shall not, in defense of any such claim, except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party in its sole and absolute discretion, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff in question to all Indemnified Parties a full and complete release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or that does not result only in the payment of money damages which are paid (or deemed paid) in full by Contributor. If Contributor shall not have undertaken such defense within 20 days after such notice, or within such shorter time as may be reasonable under the circumstances to the extent required by applicable law, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such liability or claim on behalf of and for the account of Contributor and at Contributor’s sole cost and expense (subject to the limitations in Section 3.4 hereof).

3.4 Limitations on Indemnification Under Section 3.2(a).

(a) Contributor shall not be liable under Section 3.2(a) hereof unless and until the total amount recoverable by the Indemnified Parties under Section 3.2(a) exceeds one percent (1%) of the value of the aggregate Consideration (valuing OP Units at the IPO Price) and then only to the extent of such excess. Contributor’s total liability for indemnification shall not exceed the Consideration.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, before taking recourse against any assets of Contributor and subject to the limitations set forth in the following sentence, the Indemnified Parties shall look, first to available insurance proceeds (including without limitation any title insurance proceeds, if applicable) in accordance with Section 3.2(c) above, and then to indemnification under this Article III, (and agree to treat any return of OP Units in satisfaction of indemnification obligations hereunder as an adjustment to the Consideration delivered to Contributor hereunder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in the case of fraud or in the event of Losses relating to a third-party claim, Contributor shall not be liable to the Indemnified Parties for any indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of profits, taxes relating to tax years beginning on or after the Closing, loss of value or other similar speculative damages asserted or claimed by the Indemnified Parties.

(c) The limitations in this Section 3.4 shall not apply to any obligations of Contributor with respect to Prorations under this Agreement.

3.5 Limitation Period.

(a) Any claim for indemnification under Section 3.2 hereof must be asserted in writing by the Indemnified Party, stating the nature of the Losses and the basis for indemnification therefor on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing.

(b) If asserted in writing on or prior to the date specified in Section 3.5(a) hereof for the applicable claim, any claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof shall survive until resolved by mutual agreement between Contributor and the Indemnified Party or by arbitration or court proceeding.

3.6 Delivery of Indemnity Amounts. Indemnity payments may be made by Contributor in the form of cash or OP Units. To the extent indemnification is made through delivery by Contributor of OP Units, such OP Units shall be valued at an amount per OP Unit equal to the IPO Price. Contributor hereby authorizes the REIT, as general partner of the Operating Partnership, to take all such action as may be necessary to amend the Partnership Agreement, and any exhibits or schedules thereto, to reflect the delivery of any OP Units by Contributor to the Operating Partnership as an indemnification payment hereunder and to reflect that Contributor has no further right, title or interest with respect to any such OP Units.

(1) all such Taxes resulting from a breach of any representation in Section 1.14 of the Representations, Warranty and Indemnity Agreement or a breach of any provision of this Section 4.2; and

(2) all Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, net or gross income, Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any sale, receipt, use, transfer or assignments of property or other asset, or Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any payment or accrual of any amounts (including, without limitation, dividends, interest, or wages), attributable to the period ending on the Closing Date.

(b) Survival. The obligations of Contributor to pay or indemnify for a Tax under this Section 4.2 shall expire upon the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (after taking into account any waiver, extension, tolling, or mitigation thereof) of the underlying Tax; provided, however, to the extent that Contributor’s obligation to pay a Tax arises under a contract or other agreement or arrangement, Contributor’s obligations under this Section 4.2 shall not expire until sixty (60) days after the expiration of such Contributor’s obligation to pay such Tax under the contract or other agreement or arrangement. All other obligations of Contributor under this Section 4.2 shall survive until fully performed.

(c) Contributor and the Operating Partnership shall provide each other with such cooperation and information relating to any of the Contributed Interests or the Properties as the parties reasonably may request in (i) filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for tax refund, (ii) determining any liability for taxes or a right to a tax refund, (iii) conducting or defending any proceeding in respect of taxes, or (iv) performing tax diligence, including with respect to the impact of this transaction on the REIT’s tax status as a REIT. Such reasonable cooperation shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Operating Partnership shall promptly notify Contributor upon receipt by the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates of notice of (i) any pending or threatened tax audits or assessments with respect to any Property and (ii) any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign tax audits or assessments of the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates, in each case, which may affect the liabilities for taxes of Contributor with respect to any tax period ending before or as a result of the Closing. Contributor shall promptly notify the Operating Partnership in writing upon receipt by Contributor or any of its affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign tax audits or assessments with respect to any Property. Each of the Operating Partnership and Contributor may participate at its own expense in the prosecution of any claim or audit with respect to taxes attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided, that Contributor shall have the right to control the conduct of any such audit or proceeding or portion thereof for which such Contributor has acknowledged liability (except as a partner of the Operating Partnership) for the payment of any additional tax liability, and the Operating Partnership shall have the right to control any other audits and proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Operating Partnership nor Contributor may settle or otherwise resolve any such claim, suit or proceeding which could have an adverse tax effect on the other party or its affiliates (other than on Contributor or any of its affiliates as a partner of the Operating Partnership) without the consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Contributor and the Operating Partnership shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers with respect to the Properties, and all material records and other documents relating thereto, until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any party, any extensions thereof) of the taxable years to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate and until the final determination of any tax in respect of such years.

(d) For purposes of allocating items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to the Property and/or the Contributed Interests in the manner required by Section 704(c) of the Code, the Operating Partnership shall employ, and shall cause any entity controlled by the Operating Partnership which holds title to the Property or the Contributed Interests to employ, the “traditional method” (without curative allocations) as set forth in Treasury Regulations section 1.704-3(b)(1).
