(d) prorations and adjustments due from Contributor pursuant to Section 9;
(e) to the extent unpaid as of the Closing, the brokerage fee to be paid by Contributor to Contributor’s Broker pursuant to Section 14 hereof.

3.1 OPU Issuance.

If Contributor elects to receive all or a portion of the Net
Consideration in the form of OPUs, then, prior to Closing, Contributor shall notify Acquirer in writing of such election and shall confirm for Acquirer that the foregoing requirement will be met.
3.2 Closing Statement. Prior to Closing, Contributor shall have delivered to Acquirer a Closing Statement calculated in accordance with Section 2.3 (the “Closing Statement”) in mutually agreed form accurately setting forth the financial terms of this transaction and a summary of the Consideration and Net Consideration, including the U.S. dollar denominated amount of Net Consideration that Contributor elects to receive in OPUs (such amount, the “Aggregate OPU Value”).
3.3 Valuation of OPUs. In accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Operating Partnership will issue to Contributor, a number of OPUs determined by dividing the Aggregate OPU Value on the Closing Statement by the DOC Trading Price (rounded to the nearest whole OPU). The “DOC Trading Price” means the average per share closing price, rounded to two decimal points, of DOC common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (as reported by the Wall Street Journal website, xxxx://xxxxxx.xxx.xxx/XXX/xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxx, or its successor) for the period of three (3) consecutive trading days ending on the last full trading day prior to the Closing Date. The Closing Statement will be updated prior to the Closing in accordance with the requirements of this Section 3.3 to list the number of OPUs to be issued to Contributor at Closing. Such updated Closing Statement shall be the final and binding allocation of OPUs to Contributor.
4. Title.
4.1 Title Commitment. From and after the Effective Date, Acquirer shall have the right to order a title insurance commitment prepared in accordance with all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (the “Title Commitment”). The Title Commitment shall be issued by First American Title Insurance Company — Milwaukee Office (“Title Company”), and shall obligate the Title Company to issue at the Closing an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the Consideration on the standard form (Form T-1) promulgated by the Texas Department of Insurance (the “Title Policy”). Evidence of title shall be issued to Escrow Agent by Lone Star Title of El Paso, Inc., 000 Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xx Xxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attn: Xxxx Xxxxxx (Tel. #: (000) 000-0000). Acquirer may direct the Title Company at or prior to Closing to down date the Title Commitment to the date and time of the recording of the Deed and provide a “title xxxx-up” or “Pro-forma Policy” showing the final form of the Title Policy (including any endorsements required by Acquirer) to be issued, which xxxx-up or “Pro-forma” shall obligate the Title Company to issue the final title insurance policy in such form. The title xxxx-up or Pro-Forma and final Title Policy shall be subject only to the “Permitted Exceptions” specified below. A written statement of the obligee of the amount of any lien or encumbrance to be discharged by Acquirer pursuant to Section 2.3(c) above shall be provided by Contributor before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. The premium for the title policy and any fees for endorsements or other services provided by the Title Company (including the mortgagee policy, if any) shall be paid by Acquirer on or before Closing.
4.2 Title Objections. Within ten (10) days of Acquirer’s receipt of the latter of the Title Commitment or the Survey (as defined in Section 7.2(e) below), Acquirer shall object
in writing to any condition of title not satisfactory to Acquirer, in Acquirer’s sole discretion. During the Due Diligence Period and following receipt of Acquirer’s objections to the Title Commitment and Survey, the parties will cooperate with one another in endeavoring to cure or secure title insurance over any objections Acquirer has made to the title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Commitment and Survey. Contributor shall have no obligation to cure title objections, except that Contributor must remove (i) liens of an ascertainable amount other than Existing Mortgage Debt, (ii) any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are created by, through or under Contributor after the Effective Date and which are not consented to by Acquirer, and (iii) any mechanic’s and materialman’s liens filed against the Property during the pendency of this Agreement, unless the same arise by, through or under Acquirer, its employees, agents or contractors (“Mandatory Cure Items”). The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean the specific exceptions to title contained in Schedule B of the Title Commitment as the same may be updated by Escrow Agent prior to Closing (other than Mandatory Cure Items, which Contributor must remove on or before Closing), that the Title Company has not agreed to insure over or remove from the Title Commitment during the Due Diligence Period, or thereafter, and any matters disclosed in the Survey
4.3 UCC Search. Contributor shall transfer to Acquirer all of the Personal Property free of all liens and encumbrances other than Existing Mortgage Debt. Contributor shall, at Contributor’s sole cost and expense, prior to Closing, deliver to Acquirer documentation from Uniform Commercial Code (“U.C.C.”) searches confirming that there are no U.C.C. filings against Contributor which would be a lien on the Property, including the Personal Property, involved in this transaction other than Existing Mortgage Debt.
5. Closing.
5.1 Time and Place. The closing (“Closing”) of the transaction hereunder shall be held on the date that is fifteen (15) days after the expiration date of the Due Diligence Period (or on the next business day thereafter if such date is not a business day) (the “Closing Date”), or on such other date that the parties may mutually select, provided, however, in no event shall the Closing Date be later than September 30, 2014. Closing shall be an escrow closing with the Title Company acting as the closing escrow agent. It is agreed that the time of Closing and the obligation of Contributor to deliver the Deed (as defined in Section 5.2(a) below) to Acquirer at Closing are of the essence of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon written notice to Contributor, Acquirer, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to extend the Closing Date for up to an additional thirty (30) days.

6. Representations and Warranties.
6.1 Contributor’s Representations and Warranties. Contributor makes the following representations and warranties and agrees that Acquirer’s obligations under this Agreement are conditioned upon the truth and accuracy of such representations and warranties, both as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date:
(a) Contributor has been duly formed and is validly existing as a Texas limited liability company in good standing in its state of organization, with the requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its assets, conduct its business, and perform its obligations under this Agreement. Contributor is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it owns or leases assets, or conducts any business, to the extent that such qualification is required under the laws of such jurisdiction.
(b) Contributor acknowledges that: (i) the Operating Partnership and Acquirer intend the offer and issuance of OPUs to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws by virtue of the status of Contributor being an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, and that Contributor is acquiring the OPUs in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D; and (ii) in issuing any OPUs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Operating Partnership and Acquirer is relying on the representations made herein by Contributor.
(c) In electing to receive OPUs and engage in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Contributor will not rely upon any representations made to it by Acquirer, the Operating Partnership, or DOC, or any of their respective partners, members, officers, directors, employees, or agents as to tax matters or otherwise that are not contained herein. Contributor has obtained from its own counsel advice regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the tax consequences of: (i) the transfer of the Property to Acquirer and the receipt of OPUs as consideration therefor; and (ii) Contributor’s admission as a limited partner of the Operating Partnership.
(d) Contributor is aware of the risks involved in investing in the OPUs. Contributor acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to ask questions of and to receive answers from Acquirer, the Operating Partnership, and DOC, or a person or persons authorized to act on their behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the OPUs and the financial condition, affairs, and business of Acquirer, the Operating Partnership, and DOC. Contributor confirms that Acquirer, the Operating Partnership, and/or DOC has provided copies of any documents, records, and information pertaining to the OPUs that Contributor deemed necessary to determine whether to enter into this Agreement and contribute the Property to Acquirer in exchange for the OPUs.
(e) Contributor understands that the OPUs will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such registration requirements. Any OPUs issued to Contributor are being acquired solely for the Contributors’ 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.
(f) Contributor is an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. Contributor covenants and agrees to provide to Acquirer prior to the Closing a completed and executed accredited investor questionnaire, with such accredited investor questionnaire confirming that Contributor is an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.
(g) Contributor holds fee simple title to the Real Property and marketable title to the Personal Property.
(h) The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been approved as required by law and Contributor’s constituent documents, and no further action is required on the part of Contributor to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby. The person executing this Agreement on behalf of Contributor has all requisite authority to execute this Agreement, and this Agreement, as executed, is valid, legal and binding upon Contributor. No attachments, execution proceedings, assignments for the benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceedings are pending or threatened against Contributor, nor are any such proceedings contemplated by Contributor.
(i) There is no litigation or proceeding, either judicial or administrative, pending or threatened, affecting Contributor’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. There is no outstanding order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, government, governmental entity or authority or arbitration against or affecting Contributor or the Property.
(j) There are no management, employment, service, equipment, supply, maintenance, water, sewer or other utility or concession agreements or agreements with municipalities (including improvement or development escrows or bonds) with respect to or affecting the Property which will burden the Property or Acquirer after Closing in any manner whatsoever, except for (i) instruments of record and/or the Permitted Exceptions and (ii) Contract Rights that Acquirer has elected to assume.
(k) Contributor has no knowledge of, and has received no notice from, any governmental authority requiring any work, repairs, construction, alterations or installations on or in connection with the Property, or asserting any violation of any federal, state, county or municipal laws, ordinances, codes, orders, regulations or requirements affecting any portion of the Property, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act and any applicable environmental laws or regulations. There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Contributor, threatened against or affecting Contributor or the Property or any portion thereof or relating to or arising out of Contributor’s ownership of the Property, in
any court or before or by any federal, state, county or municipal department, commission, board, bureau or agency or other governmental instrumentality.
(l) No special assessments or charges of any kind or nature (deferred or otherwise) for any public improvements have been made against the Property which remain unpaid, no improvements to the Property, or to Contributor’s knowledge, any roads or facilities abutting the Property have been made or ordered for which a lien, assessment or charge can be filed or made, and Contributor has no knowledge of any plans for improvements by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority which might result in a special assessment against the Property. Contributor has incurred no obligations relating to the installation of or connection to any sanitary sewers or storm sewers which remain unpaid and shall be enforceable against the Property; and all public improvements ordered, advertised, commenced or completed prior to the Effective Date shall be paid for in full by Contributor prior to Closing.
(m) To Contributor’s knowledge, all certificates of occupancy and licenses necessary for operation of the Property, as presently conducted, have been issued by all authorities having jurisdiction thereof; and to Contributor’s knowledge, all such certificates of occupancy and licenses are in full force and effect. Contributor has not received any written notice of suspension or cancellation of any certificates of occupancy or licenses. Contributor has no actual knowledge of any structural defect in the buildings or other improvements on the Real Property, or in the buildings’ roof, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, mechanical, plumbing, or electrical systems and equipment.
(n) Contributor warrants, represents and covenants that, to Contributor’s knowledge: (i) there has been no disposal, burial or placement of Hazardous Substances (as defined below) on or about the Property in violation of applicable Environmental Laws; (ii) the Property and Contributor are not in violation of any applicable Environmental Laws (as defined below), and no other person or entity has used all or part of the Property or any lands contiguous to the Property in violation of any applicable Environmental Laws; (iii) there is no contamination, pollution or danger of pollution resulting from a condition on or under the Property, or on or under any lands in the vicinity of the Property; (iv) there are no storage tanks on or under the Property; (v) environmental conditions associated with the Property are in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; and (vi) Contributor has disclosed to Acquirer all environmental reports, correspondence from governmental entities, and similar written information in Contributor’s possession relating to the environmental condition of the Property.. Contributor has not received any information from neighboring property owners indicating they have any concerns about existing environmental conditions which could affect the Property or suggesting they might look to Contributor for contribution to clean up such condition.
In the event Acquirer shall discover such Hazardous Substances and/or violations of Environmental Laws, tanks, other “recognized environmental condition” (as that phrase is defined by the most recent American Society for Testing and Materials practice standards) or other unsatisfactory environmental conditions (in Acquirer’s sole discretion) on the Property at any time prior to Closing, Acquirer shall, as its sole remedy except as hereafter provided in this Section 6.1(n), have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice thereof to Contributor, whereupon Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Acquirer together
with all interest thereon, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for Surviving Obligations; provided, however, that, if Contributor had knowledge of such environmental condition and failed to disclose the same to Acquirer in breach of this Agreement, Contributor shall reimburse Acquirer upon demand for all Acquirer’s out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, not to exceed $100,000 (“Transaction Costs”). Such reimbursement shall be made within thirty (30) days of demand by Acquirer, accompanied by a detailed summary and supporting documentation therefor establishing such out of pocket costs. The foregoing reimbursement obligation of Contributor shall survive termination of this Agreement by Acquirer or Contributor.
(o) There are no existing leases, whether oral or written, agreements of sale, options, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, tenancies, licenses or any other claims to possession or use affecting the Property, except for the Permitted Exceptions and/or as listed in Exhibit C hereto. Exhibit C lists all: (i) Leases and subleases for any portion of the Property and all assignments, amendments and any other writings related thereto in effect on the Effective Date; and (ii) guarantees with respect to the Leases in effect on the Effective Date (the “Guarantees”). Each of the Leases and Guarantees is valid and subsisting and in full force and effect and has not been further amended, modified or supplemented; and the tenant thereunder is in actual possession in the normal course and the tenant is not in default thereunder. No tenant has asserted any claim of which Contributor has notice which would in any way affect the collection of rent from such tenant, and no written notice of default or breach on the part of the landlord under any of the Leases has been received by Contributor or its agents from the tenant thereunder. All painting, repairs, alterations and other work required to be performed under the Leases, have been or will, prior to Closing, be fully performed and paid for in full by Contributor.
(p) The rents set forth in Exhibit C or in the Leases are the actual rents, income and charges presently being collected by Contributor. Except as set forth in Exhibit C or in the Leases, no tenant under any of the Leases is entitled to any concessions, allowances, rebates or refunds or has prepaid any rents or other charges for more than the current month.

7.5 Indemnity. If any inspection or test conducted by or for Acquirer disturbs the Property, Acquirer will restore the Property to substantially the same condition as existed prior to any such inspection or test. Acquirer shall keep the Property free and clear of any liens and will indemnify, defend, and hold Contributor harmless from all losses, costs and damages including reasonable attorneys’ fees resulting from inspections and/or activities on the Property of Acquirer and its employees, agents, contractors and representatives. This indemnity obligation of Acquirer shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
7.6 Return of Disclosure Materials, etc. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Acquirer shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) deliver to Contributor, at no cost and expense to Acquirer, all Disclosure Materials and other documents delivered to Acquirer (its agents, representatives or designees) by Contributor or Contributor’s agents, representatives or employees pursuant to this Agreement, together with originals of all engineering reports, environmental studies, sales reports, appraisals and other studies and reports obtained by Acquirer with respect to the Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Acquirer may retain one (1) copy of all disclosure materials, reports and studies to comply with laws, rules, regulations, or orders applicable to Acquirer, the Operating Partnership, or DOC, provided, however, that Acquirer shall keep such retained information confidential, and shall use the same only for the purpose of such compliance. Acquirer shall
confirm in writing that it has returned all documents as required herein. Acquirer shall not be liable to Contributor for the accuracy or inaccuracy of any such studies or reports obtained by Acquirer or for any effect that any information contained in such studies or reports has or could have on the value of the Property.

otherwise on the prior year’s taxes. Contributor shall be responsible for all real estate taxes through the day prior to the Closing. In the event taxes are prorated on the prior year’s taxes, the parties agree to reprorate taxes when the taxes for the current year are known, and the parties agree to make such payment between themselves to effectuate such reproration. Assessments of any kind (general, special or otherwise) levied or to be levied, if any, for work on site actually commenced or announced (by either a private individual or entity or a governmental entity) prior to Closing shall be paid by Contributor at or prior to Closing.

The following items shall be prorated through the day before Closing: all collected rents and other payments under the Leases; all utility charges (as applicable), including, but not limited to, sewer, water, electricity, gas, telephone and other private and municipal charges (collectively “Utility Charges”). Any rent and or other payments under the Leases delinquent as of Closing shall not be prorated. If Acquirer collects delinquencies after Closing pertaining to Contributor’s period of ownership, Acquirer shall remit such amounts to Contributor. Contributor shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary billing information for the Utility Charges in order to accurately reflect the same on the Closing Statement. Income derived from the Property that is earned as of the day of Closing shall accrue to the benefit of Acquirer.
9.3 Taxes, Insurance, CAM Charges and Security Deposits Collected from Tenants. At Closing, Contributor shall pay to Acquirer any and all funds paid to Contributor by tenants in the Property on account of security deposits and additional rent items not yet due and payable by Contributor, such as tax, insurance and CAM charge escrows. Contributor shall make such payment in the form of a credit against the Consideration in favor of Acquirer. The parties agree to enter into a reconciliation agreement at Closing obligating the parties to reconcile the taxes, insurance, and CAM charges collected from Tenants as additional rent pursuant to Section 9.6, below.
9.4 Closing Costs. Contributor shall pay all transfer taxes associated with the conveyance of the Property and all recording fees customarily paid sellers in the locality where the Property is located.

Each party is responsible for paying its own respective attorneys’ fees incurred in negotiating, preparing and closing the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
9.5 Other Operating Costs. Any and all other normal, on-going operating expenses attributable to the Property, except to the extent any of the same relate to the Contract Rights excluded from the Property pursuant to Section 7.2(b) of this Agreement, shall be prorated between the parties through the day before Closing.
9.6 Reconciliation. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Acquirer and Contributor shall reconcile all of the foregoing payments and prorations based on actual bills or invoices received after the Closing, but only if the prorations or payments were based on an estimate and not actual current bills or invoices. In the
event that any item of income, charge, or expense cannot be reconciled accurately within such 90-day period, the Acquirer and Contributor hereby agree to delay such reconciliation until a date when it can be accurately completed. Any party owing to the other party any amount ascertained by the required reconciliations shall promptly, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days after the date of the applicable reconciliation, pay the other party such amount. The obligations set forth in this Section 9.6 shall survive Closing.
9.7 Time of Proration. As applicable, all of the foregoing items set forth in this Section 9, unless otherwise expressly stated, shall be prorated between the parties as of midnight of the day before Closing.
10. Condemnation; Rezoning, Historic Designation.
10.1 Condemnation. Contributor represents and warrants that Contributor has not heretofore received any notice of any eminent domain or condemnation proceeding in connection with the Property. If prior to Closing any such eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is commenced or any change is made, or proposed to be made to: (i) any portion or all of the Property; (ii) the current means of ingress and egress to the Property; or (iii) to the roads or driveways adjoining the Property, Contributor agrees immediately to notify Acquirer in writing thereof. Acquirer then shall have the right, at Acquirer’s option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Contributor prior to Closing. If Acquirer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 10, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Acquirer together with all accrued interest, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the Surviving Obligations. If Acquirer does not so terminate this Agreement, Acquirer shall proceed to Closing hereunder as if no such proceeding had commenced and will pay Contributor the full Consideration in accordance with this Agreement, and Contributor shall assign to Acquirer all of its right, title and interest in and to any compensation for such condemnation. Contributor shall not negotiate or settle any claims for compensation prior to Closing, and Acquirer shall have the sole right (in the name of Acquirer or Contributor or both) to negotiate for, to agree to, and to contest all offers and awards.
10.2 Historic Designation/Rezoning. If, prior to closing, there is a designation of the Real Property (and/or any improvement located thereon) or any portion thereof as a historic structure or other historic designation, or any such historic designation is threatened, commenced or finalized, or there is a threatened, commenced or finalized rezoning of the Real Property, Contributor shall promptly notify Acquirer, and Acquirer may elect to terminate this Agreement prior to Closing, in which event the Deposit and all accrued interest thereon shall be returned forthwith to Acquirer, Acquirer and Contributor shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall terminate, except for the Surviving Obligations. If Acquirer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and at Closing Contributor shall assign to Acquirer all Contributor’s right, title and interest in and to any dollars paid by the governmental authority (if any) in connection with the rezoning of the Real Property or historic designation.
11. Default by Acquirer. If Acquirer, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing as to the Property, the Deposit and all accrued
interest shall be paid to Contributor. Such payment of the Deposit and all accrued interest to Contributor shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for Acquirer’s default and the receipt of same shall be Contributor’s exclusive and sole remedy; and Contributor hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Consideration, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Acquirer. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Contributor as a result of Acquirer’s failure to complete the acquisition of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, the liquidated damages provided for in this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Contributor will incur as a result of such failure. The parties acknowledge that the payment of such liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty under any legal or equitable theory, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Contributor.
12. Default by Contributor. If Contributor, defaults in the performance of any obligation contained in this Agreement or, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be returned to Acquirer and Contributor shall reimburse Acquirer for all of Acquirer’s Transaction Costs. In addition, Acquirer may pursue an action for specific performance and/or damages; provided, however, that in any suit for damages Acquirer’s damages shall be capped at $100,000, which amount the parties agree shall constitute liquidated damages and the maximum recoverable amount in the case of a suit for damages. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Acquirer as a result of Contributor’s failure to complete the contribution of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, the liquidated damages provided for in this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Acquirer will incur as a result of such failure. Acquirer waives any right to xxx for damages. Contributor waives the right to assert the defense of lack of mutuality in any action for specific performance instituted by Acquirer. Contributor shall have no right to cure any default.
13. Risk of Loss. Contributor shall bear the risk of all loss or damage to the Property from all causes until Closing. Contributor represents that it has, and will maintain pending Closing, a policy of fire and extended coverage insurance in at least the full amount of the replacement cost of all buildings and improvements located on the Property. If at any time prior to Closing any portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever, Contributor shall promptly give written notice thereof to Acquirer and Acquirer shall have the right: (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Contributor, whereupon Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit together with all accrued interest to Acquirer, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations; or (ii) to proceed with this Agreement and to notify Contributor that, at Acquirer’s sole option, Contributor either shall: (A) use any available insurance proceeds to restore the Property prior to Closing to its condition as of the Effective Date, and if there are any excess insurance proceeds after completion of such restoration, Contributor shall promptly deposit same in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with any interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Acquirer at Closing; or (B) in lieu of restoration, prior to Closing, clear the site of debris and deposit all remaining insurance proceeds in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Acquirer at Closing. All unpaid claims and rights in connection with any such losses shall be assigned to Acquirer at Closing
without in any manner affecting the Consideration. In the event Acquirer elects to proceed under clause (ii)(A) or (ii)(B) above, Contributor shall either expend the deductible amount provided for in such insurance coverage in making such restoration or clearing the Property, as the case may be, or give Acquirer a credit therefore against the Consideration.
14. Brokerage. Acquirer represents to Contributor that Acquirer has engaged the brokerage services of Newmark Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx (“Acquirer’s Broker”) and that Acquirer shall be solely responsible for all fees, costs, commissions and any and all other amounts due and payable to Acquirer’s Broker, which shall be paid to Acquirer’s Broker on or before Closing. Contributor represents to Acquirer that Contributor has engaged the brokerage services of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx of RBG Realty (“Contributor’s Broker”) and that Contributor shall be solely responsible for all fees, costs, commissions and any and all other amounts due and payable to Contributor’s Broker, which shall be paid to Contributor’s Broker on or before Closing. Each party represents and warrants to the other that, except for their respective Brokers as specified above, neither has dealt with any broker, agent, finder or other intermediary in connection with this transaction. Acquirer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Contributor harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers, including the Acquirer’s Broker, or intermediaries claiming a commission through Acquirer in connection with this sale. Contributor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Acquirer harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers, including the Contributor’s Broker, or intermediaries claiming a commission through Contributor in connection with this sale.

All notices, requests and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered: (i) in person; or (ii) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested; or (iii) by recognized overnight delivery service providing positive tracking of items (for example, Federal Express); or (iv) by electronic transmission (so long as one of methods (i), (ii) or (iii) are simultaneously utilized) addressed as follows or at such other address of which Contributor or Acquirer shall have given notice as herein provided:

17. Tax Treatment of Transaction.
17.1 Agreed Tax Treatment. Contributor and Acquirer hereby acknowledge and agree that the transaction will, for United States federal income tax purposes, be treated as (i) a “disguised sale” of an undivided portion of the Property by Contributor to Acquirer pursuant to Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code to the extent of the cash consideration received by Contributor and the portion of the liabilities assumed by Acquirer that is treated as a transfer of consideration
under the rules of Section 1.707-5 of the United States federal income tax regulations and (ii) a non-taxable contribution of the remaining undivided portion of the Property to Acquirer in exchange for OPUs pursuant to Section 721 of the Code. Contributor and Acquirer hereby agree to file their respective tax returns in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 17.1.
17.2 Contributor’s Tax Status. Contributor has timely filed all tax returns in accordance with applicable laws (taking into account any valid extensions of time for filing), and each such tax return is accurate and complete in all material respects. Contributor has timely paid all taxes due with respect to the taxable periods covered by such tax returns and all other taxes arising in connection with or relating to the Property (whether or not shown on any tax return). Contributor has not requested any extension of time within which to file any tax return which has not since been filed. Contributor does not and will not have additional liability for taxes with respect to any tax return which was required by applicable laws to be filed on or before the Closing Date. There are no liens on any of the assets of Contributor that arose in connection with any failure or alleged failure (whether or not in writing) to pay any tax. All taxes arising in connection with or relating to the Property that Contributor is required by law to withhold or collect (including sales and use taxes and amounts required to be withheld or collected in connection with any amount paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor or other person) have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent required by applicable law, have been paid over to the proper taxing authority. No tax audits or other tax proceedings are pending or being conducted, nor has Contributor received any notice from any governmental authority that any such audit or other tax proceeding is pending, threatened or contemplated. There is no claim or assessment pending, or threatened against Contributor for any alleged deficiency in taxes. Contributor does not have any tax liabilities (whether due or to become due) with respect to the Property, the operations of Contributor, or the assets of Contributor, that will be required under local laws or otherwise to be assumed by Acquirer. Contributor has not waived any statute of limitations with respect to taxes or agreed to an extension of time with respect to any tax assessment or deficiency. Contributor is not a party to, or bound by, any tax allocation or sharing agreement, tax indemnity obligation or similar contract or practice. Contributor has not made any election to be excluded from the provisions of subchapter K of the Code or to be taxable as a corporation. Contributor has not entered into any “reportable transaction” arising in connection with or relating to the Property within the meaning of Section 6011 of the Code.
