Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties agree that:
(a) PRIII Member shall be deemed to have withdrawn the Sale Notice with the consent of ESS and neither PRIII Member nor ESS shall have any further right or obligation under or with respect to the Sale Notice in the same manner and to the same extent as if PRIII Member had not given ESS the Sale Notice.

(c) Until the termination of this Agreement, PRIII Member shall not have any right to give a “Sale Notice” within the meaning of or pursuant to Section 9.6(c) of the JV Agreement.

Section 5.4 Transfer Taxes. All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this consummation and Closing of the Transaction shall be paid by either PRIII Member or ESS in accordance with the custom of the location of the applicable Property. The provisions of this Section 5.4 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.
Section 5.5 Other Transaction Costs. All costs of title insurance shall be paid by ESS, except that PRIII Member shall pay half of the actual costs of the so-called owner’s extended coverage title insurance premium (including such endorsements to such owner’s policies as ESS may, in ESS’ sole discretion, request) incurred by ESS at Closing in those states in which it is custom that a seller of real property pay the costs of base title insurance, provided, however, in no event shall PRIII Member pay an amount in excess of $160,000 in title insurance costs in connection with this Transaction.

PRIII Member shall not have any interest in or right to Delinquent Rents after the Closing. As used herein, “Delinquent Rents” means all rent due and other revenue payable to the JV or any of the Subsidiaries as of the Proration Date and applicable, on an accrual basis, to any period of time preceding the Proration Date, including, but not limited to, checks received after the Proration Date, but applicable to a period occurring prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, PRIII Member shall be entitled to a credit at Closing in the amount of $100,000 to account for the fact that the parties agree not to prorate Delinquent Rents (the “Delinquent Rents Credit”).

No later than January 31, 2013 (the “Post Closing Adjustment Date”), ESS shall (a) prepare and provide to PRIII Member a final accounting for the operations of the JV and the Subsidiaries through the Proration Date (the “Final Accounting”) and (b) recalculate the prorations and adjustments to the Purchase Price as of the Proration Date, excluding the Delinquent Rents Credit which shall not be subject to adjustment (the “Proration Recalculation”) and provide a copy of the Proration Recalculation to PRIII Member. ESS and PRIII Member shall each have an opportunity to provide the other with a review (a “Review”) of the Final Accounting and/or the Proration Recalculation setting forth in reasonable detail any discrepancy which it has discovered in the prorations made as of the Proration Date or in either the Final Accounting or the Proration Recalculation. If ESS or PRIII Member does not provide the other party with a Review within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Final Accounting and the Proration Recalculation, such party shall be deemed to be in agreement with the Final Accounting and the Proration Recalculation. If either party to which any such Review is presented disagrees with such Review, it shall give written notice (the “Disagreement Notice”) to the other party within ten (10) business days after receipt of such Review (and, if no such notice is given, the party to which such Review was presented shall be deemed to agree with the Review). The Disagreement Notice shall state in reasonable detail all points of disagreement. If ESS and PRIII Member do not resolve such disagreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Disagreement Notice, the matter(s) shall be referred to PriceWaterhouse Coopers for final determination with the costs of such accountant to be paid 50% by PRIII Member and 50% by ESS. If the parties agree or are deemed to agree with either the Final Accounting and the Proration Recalculation or the Review or if there is a determination by PriceWaterhouse Coopers, then the party in whose favor any error was made shall pay to the
other party, in cash, the amount owed within ten (10) days of the date of such agreement or deemed agreement or such determination, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 5.8 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.
Section 5.9 Repayment of the Loan; Indemnity Agreement.

The provisions of this Section 5.9 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.
Section 5.10 Filing of Final Tax Returns. ESS shall, at the JV’s expense and in a timely manner, prepare and file final tax returns for the JV, the Subsidiaries and the Properties in accordance with applicable state and federal laws. ESS shall provide drafts of the final tax returns for review and approval by PRIII Member prior to the filing of such tax returns. The obligations set forth this Section 5.10 shall survive Closing and not be merged therein.
Section 5.11 As-Is Sale. ESS acknowledges and agrees as follows:
(a) Prior to ESS’s execution of this Agreement, ESS has conducted (or has waived its right to conduct) all such due diligence as ESS considered necessary or appropriate (including due diligence with respect to hazardous materials or the environmental condition of the Properties).

(d) Except for PRIII Member’s Warranties, upon which ESS has relied in making ESS’ decision to purchase the Interests, ESS has independently confirmed to its satisfaction all information that it considers material to its purchase of the Interests or the Transaction.
In addition, ESS expressly understands and acknowledges that it is possible that unknown Liabilities may exist with respect to the Interests and Property and that with the exception of matters covered by PRIII Member’s Warranties, ESS explicitly took that possibility into account in determining and agreeing to the Purchase Price, and that a portion of such consideration, having been bargained for between parties with the knowledge of the possibility of such unknown Liabilities shall be given in exchange for a full accord and satisfaction and discharge of all such Liabilities. The terms of this Section 5.11 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.

Section 6.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of ESS set forth in Section 6.1 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Closing Documents, the maximum aggregate liability of the PRIII Member, and the maximum aggregate amount which may be awarded to and collected by ESS, in connection with a breach of any of PRIII Member’s Limited Warranties for which a claim is timely made by ESS shall not exceed Ten Million 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00).

DEFAULT
Section 8.1 To PRIII Member’s Obligations. If, on the Closing Date, (i) ESS is in default of any of its material obligations hereunder, or (ii) to the actual knowledge of PRIII Member, any of ESS’s representations or warranties are, in the aggregate, untrue, inaccurate or incorrect, in any material respect, or (iii) the Closing otherwise fails to occur by reason of ESS’s failure or refusal to perform its material obligations hereunder in a prompt and timely manner, and any such circumstance described in any of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) continues for five (5) Business Days after written notice from PRIII Member to ESS, which written notice shall detail such default, untruth or failure, as applicable, then PRIII Member may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, elect to (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice to ESS, promptly after which the Deposit shall be paid to PRIII Member as liquidated damages and, thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement; or (b) waive the condition and proceed to Closing.

THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PRIII MEMBER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF A DEFAULT BY ESS WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT THEREON REPRESENTS THE PARTIES’ REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Section 8.2 To ESS’s Obligations. If, at the Closing, (i) PRIII Member is in default of any of its material obligations hereunder, or (ii) to the actual knowledge of ESS, any of PRIII Member’s Warranties are, in the aggregate, untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, or (iii) the Closing otherwise fails to occur by reason of PRIII Member’s failure or refusal to perform its material obligations hereunder in a prompt and timely manner, and any such circumstance described in any of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) continues for five (5) Business Days after written notice from ESS to PRIII Member, which written notice shall detail such default, untruth or failure, as applicable, then ESS shall have the right, to elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice to PRIII Member, promptly after which the Deposit shall be returned to ESS and, thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations which expressly
survive the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive the condition and proceed to close the Transaction, or (c) seek specific performance of this Agreement by PRIII Member. As a condition precedent to ESS exercising any right it may have to bring an action for specific performance hereunder, ESS must commence such an action within sixty (60) days following the occurrence of PRIII Member’s default. ESS agrees that its failure to timely commence such an action for specific performance within such sixty (60) day period shall be deemed a waiver by it of its right to commence an action for specific performance as well as a waiver by it of any right it may have to file or record a notice of lis pendens or notice of pendency of action or similar notice against all or any portion of the Properties. PRIII MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE INTERESTS REPRESENT INDIRECT INTERESTS IN REAL PROPERTY AND, AS SUCH, ARE UNIQUE, THAT AN ACTION FOR DAMAGES FOR PRIII MEMBER’S BREACH OF ITS MATERIAL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AT THE TIME OF OR PRIOR TO CLOSING WILL NOT ADEQUATELY COMPENSATE ESS FOR THE LOSS OF THE INTERESTS AND THAT AS A RESULT ESS WILL ONLY BE MADE WHOLE FOR SUCH A MATERIAL BREACH BY PRIII MEMBER IF ESS IS ENTITLED TO BRING AN ACTION FOR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF PRIII MEMBER’S DUTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. For the purposes of this Section 8.2 only, “actual knowledge” of ESS as used in this Section 8.2 shall refer only to the actual knowledge of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx or Xxxxxx Xxxxx.

If the Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by PRIII Member and ESS or a final judgment of a court.
(iv) The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any Liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred by PRIII Member or ESS resulting from the Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent’s scope or nature of its duties. PRIII Member and ESS shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all Liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.

(vi) The Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement in the place indicated on the signature page hereof in order to confirm that the Escrow Agent has received and shall hold the Escrow Deposits and the interest earned thereon, in escrow, and shall disburse the Escrow Deposits, and the interest earned thereon, pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX.
The provisions of this Article IX shall survive the Closing (and not be merged therein) or earlier termination of this Agreement.

Seller is a disregarded entity that is wholly-owned by PRISA III REIT Operating LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Transferor”).
1. In order to inform Transferee that withholding of tax is not required upon disposition of a U.S. real property interest by Transferor, the undersigned hereby certifies and declares by means of this certificate the following on behalf of the Transferor.
(a) The Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate (as these terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations).
(b) The Transferor is not a disregarded entity as defined in § 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Code.
(c) The Transferor’s employer identification number is: .
(d) The Transferor’s office address is: .
2. The Transferor understands that this certificate may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the Transferee and that any false statement contained in this certificate may be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.
