Purchaser shall not waive, forgive or discount any Reimbursable Tenant Expense for the calendar year 2021 payable by any tenant as set forth in the bills or reconciliation statements provided by Seller, and shall not enter into any settlement with any such tenant with respect to such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses, in each case, without the prior written consent of Seller. Seller shall remain responsible for paying to the tenants any amounts that they may be owed pursuant to the Leases with respect to the final reconciliation of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for calendar year 2021 that is completed following Closing in accordance with the terms hereof. If following Closing Purchaser collects any amounts payable to Seller and attributable to the reconciliation of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for calendar years 2021 or any prior year, Purchaser shall promptly remit such amounts to Seller following receipt.

(ii) Purchaser shall prepare tenant reconciliation statements for Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for calendar year 2022 and each applicable Seller agrees to furnish to Purchaser all information and documentation reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s preparation of the same related to Seller’s period of ownership for calendar year 2022. After Purchaser has completed its preparation of the tenant reconciliation statements for Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for calendar year 2022, Purchaser shall deliver such reconciliation statements to the applicable Seller for such Seller’s reasonable approval and following receipt of such Seller’s reasonable approval, Purchaser shall transmit to tenants and bill the tenants for any amounts due under such reconciliation statements (with copies delivered to the applicable Seller) on or prior to the date such reconciliations are due under the applicable Lease(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the reconciliation of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses on account of 2022 Real Estate Taxes under Accrual Basis Leases (hereafter defined) for Properties located in the states of Illinois and Ohio shall be handled as provided in Section 4.4(i)(iii) below. Except for the reconciliation of 2022 Real Estate Taxes under Accrual Basis Leases for Properties located in the states of Illinois and Ohio as set forth in the preceding sentence, all Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for calendar year 2022 shall be apportioned between the applicable Seller and Purchaser based on the amounts so collected by them and the amounts so paid or incurred by them during their respective periods of ownership for calendar year 2022 (taking into account amounts prorated hereunder). If any such reconciliation statements show that the amounts collected by a Seller prior to the Closing Date exceed that Seller’s allocable share of such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses, then that Seller shall promptly pay such amounts to Purchaser for prompt payment to the tenants. If such reconciliation statements show an applicable Seller is owed any such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses from a tenant under a Lease, then Purchaser shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to collect such amounts from the applicable tenant (provided the foregoing shall not require Purchaser to initiate any legal proceedings against any such tenant), and shall promptly pay such amounts to Seller promptly after receipt thereof by Purchaser from the applicable tenant. Purchaser may, in its reasonable discretion, waive, forgive or discount any Reimbursable Tenant Expenses payable by any tenant with respect to calendar year 2022 as set forth in the reconciliation statements described in this Section 4.4(i)(ii); provided that any such waiver, forgiveness or discount is applied proportionately among Seller and Purchaser for their respective periods of ownership in a non-discriminatory manner.

(iii) Under certain Leases of Properties located in the states of Illinois and Ohio, the Seller is billing the tenant for the Real Estate Tax component of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses based upon Real Estate Taxes levied and assessed with respect to the calendar year during which such Reimbursable Tenant Expense payments are being made to the landlord, which Real Estate Taxes are then due and payable by the landlord to the applicable taxing authority in the following calendar year (“Accrual Basis Leases”). Seller and Purchaser agree as follows with respect to such Accrual Basis Leases: (x) except as set forth in (y) below, Seller shall be entitled to retain all Reimbursable Tenant Expenses paid to Seller prior to Closing on account of Real Estate Taxes under Accrual Basis Leases, and (y) for Real Estate Taxes levied and assessed with respect to calendar year 2022 and payable by landlord in 2023 (“2022 Real Estate Taxes”), the Real Estate Tax component of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses under Accrual Basis Leases shall be reconciled between Purchaser and Seller within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Purchaser of the final tax bill for 2022 Real Estate Taxes for each applicable Property as follows: (1) if the amounts collected for Real Estate Taxes by Seller during calendar year 2022 under Accrual Basis Leases exceeds the amounts ultimately determined to be payable by the tenants under such Accrual Basis Leases on account of 2022 Real Estate Taxes with respect to Seller’s period of ownership, then Seller shall pay such excess to Purchaser (for prompt payment to the applicable tenants) and (2) if the amounts collected for Real Estate Taxes by Seller during calendar year 2022 under Accrual Basis Leases is less than the amounts ultimately determined to be payable by the tenants under such Accrual Basis Leases on account of 2022 Real Estate Taxes with respect to Seller’s period of ownership, then Purchaser shall promptly bill such tenants for such underpayments and use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to collect the same, and upon receipt of such payments by such tenants, Purchaser shall pay such amounts to Seller.

(iv) As used herein, “Reimbursable Tenant Expenses” means, collectively, amounts to be paid or reimbursed to a Seller, as landlord, by tenants under the Leases for expenses incurred by such Seller in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance and management of the applicable Property, including, without limitation, ad valorem taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other operating costs and expenses.

(v) This Section 4.4(i) shall survive Closing through June 30, 2023.

(j) Tax Contests. Schedule 4.4(j) attached hereto sets forth the appeals of the Real Estate Taxes and/or assessments for certain Properties that remain pending as of the Closing Date (i) filed by Seller and (ii) to Seller’s knowledge, filed by a tenant of an individual Property or the municipality having jurisdiction over such Property. Seller shall have the right to prosecute any appeals for the tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs, and may take related actions which Seller, in its reasonable discretion, deems appropriate in connection with appeals of tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs; provided that Seller may not take any action (including, without limitation, entering into any settlement or agreement) with respect to any such appeal without Purchaser’s approval that could directly result in an increase in the Real Estate Tax assessment for 2022 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, an increase to the Real Estate Tax assessment for 2022 resulting from an increase to the Real Estate Tax assessment for tax years prior to 2022 as a result of Seller’s ongoing appeal shall not be a deemed to be a “direct” increase in the Real Estate Tax assessment) to an amount that exceeds the amount that would have been payable absent such appeal by Seller. Seller shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed regarding the status of any such appeal. Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with each Seller, at Seller’s cost, in connection with such appeal and collection of a refund of Real Estate Taxes paid. Each Seller owns and holds all right, title and interest in and to such applicable appeal and refund pertaining to all tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs (subject to any amounts required to be refunded to tenants of the Property pursuant to their respective Leases), and all amounts payable in connection therewith shall be paid directly to the applicable Seller by the applicable authorities. If such refund or any part thereof is received by Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly pay such amount to the applicable Seller. Any refund received by Seller or Purchaser attributable to the Real Estate Taxes due and payable in the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall be distributed as follows: first, to reimburse Seller and Purchaser, respectively, for all costs incurred in connection with the appeal (or in the event of a reduction of the Real Estate Tax assessment for any such period prior to the due date of any such Real Estate Tax, the expenses therefor shall be reconciled between Seller and Purchaser based on their respective periods of ownership); second, with respect to refunds payable to tenants of the applicable Real Property pursuant to the applicable Leases, to such tenants in accordance with the terms of such Leases; and finally, to Seller and Purchaser pro rata for each party’s period of ownership. This Section 4.4(j) shall survive Closing.

(k) Service Payments. Service Payments (as hereinafter defined) shall not be apportioned or adjusted to the extent incurred by tenants prior to the Closing Date. Service Payments which are attributable to periods prior to Closing shall belong in their entirety to the applicable Seller and shall be retained by such Seller and/or paid over to such Seller by Purchaser, as applicable, on an as, if and when collected basis, and Service Payments paid by tenants for services which are attributable to periods from and after the Closing shall belong in their entirety to Purchaser. To the extent a payment is made by a tenant which is specifically designated as being on account of one or more Service Payments due to a Seller, by reference to a charge, invoice number or otherwise, then the same shall be treated as a Service Payment and shall be paid over to such Seller promptly upon receipt by Purchaser. As used herein “Service Payments”, means those Rents payable by tenants for overtime, heat, air conditioning or other utilities or services, freight elevator, submetered electric, condenser or chilled water, supplemental water, services, repairs and labor costs associated therewith, in each case, provided by a Seller, as landlord, to such tenants prior to the Closing and to which a tenant is obligated to reimburse the landlord under its Lease (other than as payment of operating expenses) or for which a tenant has separately contracted with a Seller or its agents. Schedule 4.4(k) attached hereto lists the Service Payments that are accrued and unpaid by tenants through the date set forth thereon.

(l) Capital Expenditures. Seller is a party to certain capital work contracts listed on Schedule 4.4(l) attached hereto (“Seller Capital Work Contracts”) with respect to certain capital work commenced at the Property and not completed as of the Closing (“Seller Capital Work”).

(m) Warranties; Other Intangibles. Seller shall be responsible for the fees and charges payable to any issuer in connection with the transfer by Seller to Purchaser of the warranties with respect to the Property set forth on Schedule 4.4(m) in accordance with the terms thereof. Following Closing, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to effectuate the assignment to Purchaser of such warranties and, at no additional cost to Seller, any other Intangibles in accordance with the terms thereof, including, without limitation, to obtain the Warranties Required Consents and the Other Intangibles Required Consents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 4.4(m) shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years.

(n) Reproration. Any revenue or expense amount which cannot be ascertained with certainty as of Closing shall initially be prorated on the basis of the parties’ reasonable estimates of such amount or as otherwise provided herein. Except with respect to Real Estate Taxes and Reimbursable Tenant Expenses (which shall be reprorated as set forth in respectively, Sections 4.4(g) and 4.4(i) above), all revenue or expense amounts to be prorated at Closing pursuant to this Section 4.4 which cannot be ascertained with certainty as of Closing shall be reprorated following Closing in accordance with the Reproration Statement as set forth below. Purchaser agrees that once all revenue and expense amounts other than Reimbursable Tenant Expenses and Real Estate Taxes have been ascertained, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall promptly prepare and deliver to Seller a proration statement. Upon Seller’s acceptance and approval of the proration statement submitted by Purchaser, such statement shall be conclusively deemed to be accurate and final (the “Reproration Statement”).

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 CB&I Casualty Damage. Schedule 5.1(t) hereto describes certain casualty damage that occurred to the Property identified as R001 on Exhibit A-1 prior to Closing (the “CB&I Casualty Damage”). At Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any insurance claims and proceeds Seller has with respect to the CB&I Casualty Damage, and Seller shall provide Purchaser a credit to the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible under the applicable insurance policy. Seller will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in connection with the filing and settlement of any such insurance claims. Following Closing, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover the Roof Repair Costs (hereafter defined) from available third-party sources, including such insurance claims assigned by Seller, any insurance policies maintained by the applicable tenant and any roof warranty assigned to Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof. If after exhausting such third-party sources, Purchaser is unable to obtain payment and/or reimbursement for the Roof Repair Costs, Seller shall be responsible for paying the balance of the Roof Repair Costs in excess of the aggregate insurance proceeds and other funds received by Purchaser in furtherance thereof and the credit for the insurance deductible received by Purchaser at Closing. Purchaser will keep Seller reasonably informed as to the status of all applicable insurance claims relating to the CB&I Casualty Damage and the repairs thereof. As used herein, “Roof Repair Costs” means the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs to replace the roof of the building affected by the CB&I Casualty Damage with a similar roof as existed prior to the occurrence of such damage, with a 15 year manufacturer’s warranty and wind protection up to 55 mph, including replacement of all tapered insulation (the “Roof Repair Work”). Purchaser shall obtain at least two (2) competitive bids for performance of such Roof Repair Work from roofing contractors reasonably selected by Purchaser (subject to compliance with any conditions imposed by the applicable insurer as to the bid process or contractor performing the Roof Repair Work; provided the same do not increase Roof Repair Costs required to be paid by Seller hereunder more than a de minimis amount). Provided both such bids meet the minimum criteria for the Roof Repair Work described above, Purchaser shall select the lowest of such bids to perform the Roof Repair Work, or, alternatively, if Purchaser elects to proceed with the greater of the two bids, Seller’s liability for payment of the Roof Repair Costs shall be capped at an amount equal to the lower of the two bid amounts. This Section 8.1 shall survive Closing.

8.2 Public Disclosure. From and after the Closing, the parties hereto shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and none of the parties shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to obtaining the other parties’ consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that Seller and Purchaser (and their respective Affiliates) may, without obtaining the other party’s prior written consent, make any filing or disclosure with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (i) as Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, reasonably determines may be required by Law (including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) or the rules of any national stock exchange applicable to such party, or otherwise determines that such filing or disclosure is appropriate or advisable in light of such party’s status as a public reporting company, in which case such party shall endeavor, on a basis reasonable under the circumstances, to consult with the other party before making such filing or disclosure with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and if such prior consultation is not reasonable under the circumstances, to promptly inform the other party of such filing or disclosure) or (ii) as are not inconsistent with the previous press releases, public statements or public disclosures made by Seller or Purchaser (or their Affiliates) in compliance with this Section 8.2 (provided the direct and/or indirect investors in Purchaser (and/or their respective affiliates) are not named or identified (except for any affiliate of Seller). The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall survive Closing.

8.3 Assignment. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.3, the terms and provisions of this Agreement are to apply to and bind the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Purchaser may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights hereunder without first obtaining Sellers’ prior written approval, which Sellers may grant or withhold in their sole discretion.

JOINDER

PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT DATED AS OF AUGUST 26, 2022, BY AND BETWEEN EACH OF THE ENTITIES LISTED IN THE COLUMN ENTITLED “SELLER” ON EXHIBIT A-1 ATTACHED HERETO, COLLECTIVELY, AS SELLER AND EACH OF THE ENTITIES LISTED IN THE COLUMN ENTITLED “PURCHASER” ON EXHIBIT A-2 ATTACHED HERETO, COLLECTIVELY, AS PURCHASER (THE “AGREEMENT”).

Capitalized terms used in this Joinder which are not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

Guarantor hereby guarantees to Purchaser, without the need for any other instrument or documentation, the prompt payment of all of Seller’s liabilities under the Agreement arising from and after the Closing Date until the expiration of the Survival Period resulting from (i) a breach by Seller of any representation and warranty of Seller set forth in the Agreement, and/or (ii) a breach by Seller of any of its indemnification agreements set forth in the Agreement, provided that Guarantor’s liability hereunder is subject to all applicable conditions and limitations set forth in the Agreement, including, without limitation, the Floor, the Survival Period, the Cap and other terms of Section 5.2 and Section 5.3 of the Agreement, in the same manner as Seller’s liability under the Agreement.

Guarantor agrees that if it sells its interest in NVO Promote LLC, or causes NVO Promote LLC to sell its interest in Galaxy REIT LLC, (a “GRT VAO Sale”) prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, it shall deposit with Escrow Agent concurrently with the closing of such GRT VAO Sale an amount equal to 1.5% of the Purchase Price less any amounts previously paid by Seller or Guarantor to satisfy any Post-Closing Claim under this Agreement (the “Escrow Deposit”).

If Guarantor effectuates a GRT VAO Sale following expiration of the Survival Period, but if Purchaser has timely made a Post-Closing Claim prior to the expiration of the Survival Period that remains outstanding and unresolved at the time of such GRT VAO Sale, Guarantor shall instead deposit with Escrow Agent concurrently with the closing of such GRT VAO Sale an Escrow Deposit in the amount set forth in Purchaser’s applicable Post-Closing Claim that then remains unpaid.

The Escrow Deposit shall be held and disbursed by Escrow Agent pursuant a customary holdback escrow agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Seller, Purchaser and Guarantor to be executed concurrently with the making of such deposit to Escrow Agent. Such escrow agreement shall provide that (i) the Escrow Deposit will be automatically released to Guarantor promptly following expiration of the Survival Period if no Post-Closing Claim has been made that then remains outstanding, or (ii) if a Post-Closing Claim has been timely delivered by Purchaser prior to expiration of the Survival Period, any disputed amount set forth in such Post-Closing Claim shall remain in escrow with Escrow Agent to be disbursed in accordance with a final settlement of the disputed Post-Closing Claim, and the remainder of the Escrow Deposit shall be released to Guarantor after payment to Purchaser of funds, if any, required to satisfy any Post-Closing Claim made prior to expiration of the Survival Period that is not disputed by Seller and then remains outstanding and unpaid.
