6.             Prorations and Adjustments to Purchase Price.

(a)            The following prorations and adjustments to the Purchase Price shall be made between Buyer and Seller at Closing:

(i)            All city, state and county ad valorem taxes and similar impositions levied or imposed upon or assessed against the Property (the “Taxes”), for the year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. In the event Seller has paid only a portion of the Taxes billed for the year in which Closing occurs due to the pendency of a protest of such Taxes, then, in connection with Closing, Seller shall deposit with Escrow Agent an amount equal to Seller’s pro rata share of the resulting underpayment. Any such deposit with Escrow Agent shall be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent pending final resolution of such protest, pursuant to escrow instructions reasonably acceptable in form and substance to Buyer, Seller, Escrow Agent and their respective counsel. In the event that, after the Closing Date, any additional Taxes are levied, imposed upon or assessed against the Property for periods prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall give Seller written notice of such Taxes, and Seller shall be responsible for payment of such additional Taxes in full within the time fixed for payment thereof and before the same become delinquent. Without limiting the obligations of Seller pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Seller shall pay at or prior to Closing, and does hereby, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against, any outstanding Taxes (including all interest and penalties assessed or imposed in connection therewith) for any year(s) prior to the year in which Closing occurs.

(ii)           All utility charges for the Property (including, without limitation, telephone, water, storm and sanitary sewer, electricity, gas, garbage and waste removal, as applicable) which are obligations of Seller shall be prorated as of the Closing Date; transfer fees required with respect to any such utility account which is transferred to Buyer at Closing shall be paid by or charged to Buyer; and Seller shall be credited with any deposits transferred to the account of Buyer; provided, however, at Buyer’s election and with advanced written notice sufficient to allow Seller to close such accounts as of the Closing Date, any one or more of such utility accounts in Seller’s name shall be closed as of the Closing Date, in which event Seller shall be responsible for all charges for such account and shall be entitled to all deposits theretofore made by Seller with respect to such utility, and Buyer shall be responsible for reopening and reinstituting such service in Buyer’s name, and shall be responsible for any fees, charges and deposits required in connection with such new account; provided, further, that Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate and coordinate the respective closing and opening of such accounts to avoid any interruption of utility services to the Property.

(iii)          All rent payments and, except as otherwise provided in Section 6(a)(iv) of this Agreement, other payments on account of financial obligations of tenants under Leases actually received by Landlord, shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date. With respect to tenant rental payments pursuant to the Leases made following Closing, such payments shall be attributed first to such tenant’s current rent, and then to the months preceding such month in reverse chronological order. After Closing, Seller will expressly retain the right to collect any such amounts due in any of the months prior to the month in which Closing occurs, but Buyer shall be under no obligation to commence or join in any dispossessory or eviction proceeding with respect to collection of any such amounts, and Seller may not seek to evict or dispossess any such tenant in order to collect any such amounts with respect to any tenant after Closing.

(iv)           Seller, as landlord under the Leases, is currently collecting from certain Tenants under the Leases additional rent (including, if applicable, any expenses) to cover taxes, insurance, utilities, common area maintenance and other operating costs and expenses (collectively, “Operating Expense Pass-Throughs”) in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance and management of the Property. Seller and Buyer shall each receive a debit or credit, as the case may be, for the difference between the Tenants' collected account balance for Operating Expense Pass-Throughs and the amount of Operating Expense Pass-Throughs due to or from Tenants as of the Closing Date for the calendar year in which Closing occurs. Operating Expense Pass-Throughs due to or from Tenants for years prior to the calendar year in which Closing occurs are the sole responsibility of Seller. Any item in this Section that is paid directly by any Tenant pursuant to its Lease shall not be prorated between the parties, and Buyer shall look to any Tenant to pay such items. Seller and Xxxxx agree to cooperate and use their good faith and diligent efforts to do a true-up and make any necessary adjustments to the proration of the Operating Expense Pass-Throughs solely for the calendar year in which Closing occurs within 90 days after the calendar year end following Closing.

(v)            At Closing, Seller shall, at Buyer’s option, either deliver to Buyer any refundable cash security deposit or prepaid rent actually held by Seller pursuant to the Leases, or credit to Buyer the amount of such cash security deposits or prepaid rent. Seller shall request, receive and retain all refundable cash and other deposits posted with utility companies serving the Property for any account not transferred or assigned to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

(vi)           At Closing, Seller, as landlord under the Leases, shall credit Buyer at Closing the amount of any free rent, waived rent, leasing commissions, unpaid or outstanding build out costs or tenant allowances or any other similar arrangement related to any tenant lease which remains in effect after the Closing Date.

(vii)          All amounts payable under any of the Service Contracts shall be prorated as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that there shall be no proration of (x) Seller’s insurance premiums for the Property, or (y) matters pertaining to Seller’s employees which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 6(b) below.

(viii)        Any other items which are customarily prorated in connection with the purchase and sale of properties similar to the Property shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. For proration purposes, Buyer will be entitled to any revenues and responsible for any expenses for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs and prorations shall be based on a 365-day year, actual days to the month.

(ix)           Except as otherwise provided in Section 6(a)(iv) of this Agreement, in the event that the amount of any item to be prorated is not determinable at the time of Closing (such as rents, taxes and other charges and credits), such proration shall be made on the basis of the best available information. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that, if, subsequent to Closing, the difference between the actual value of an item that was estimated as of Closing and the estimated value of such item utilized at Closing exceeds 5% of such estimated value, then Buyer and Seller shall re-prorate such item promptly upon receipt of the applicable bills therefor; provided, however, that Buyer and Seller shall only be obligated to re-prorate such items during the 120 day period immediately following the Closing Date. In the event any prorated item is due and payable at the time of Closing, the same shall be paid at Closing.

(b)            Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall not assume any liability, indebtedness, duty or obligation of Seller of any kind or nature whatsoever related to the Property.

7.             Title.

(a)            Seller covenants to convey fee simple title in and to the Property. For the purposes of this Agreement, “fee simple title” shall mean fee simple ownership which is: (i) free of all claims, liens and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever other than the Permitted Exceptions, herein defined; and (ii) insurable by a title insurance company reasonably acceptable to Buyer (the “Title Company”) and licensed to do business in the state where the Land is located, at then current standard rates under the standard form of ALTA owner’s policy of title insurance, with the standard or printed exceptions therein deleted and without exception other than for the Permitted Exceptions. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: (A) current city, state and county ad valorem taxes not yet due and payable; (B) easements for the installation or maintenance of public utilities serving only the Property; (C) the rights of tenants, as tenants only, under the Leases; and (D) any other matters in the title examination and Survey not otherwise timely objected to or waived or deemed waived by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)            Buyer shall obtain at Buyer’s expense a title commitment (the “Title Commitment”) evidencing that a policy of title insurance on the 2006 ALTA Owner’s Policy Form or its equivalent (the “Title Policy”) will in due course be issued by the Title Company to Buyer insuring good and marketable fee simple title in the amount of the Purchase Price for the Property together with such endorsements requested by Buyer which are available in the state where the Land is located with best-available copies of all instruments and documents referred to therein as exceptions to title. On or before the tenth (10^th) day prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall give Seller written notice of any matters affecting or relating to title to the Property or matters shown on the Survey to which Buyer objects along with a copy of the Title Commitment and Survey (if Buyer elects to obtain a Survey) (the “Objection Notice”). Buyer’s failure to provide the Objection Notice as provided herein shall be deemed acceptance of the state of title to the Property as reflected on the Title Commitment and, if applicable, Survey and waiver of Buyer’s right to object to title to the Property as reflected on the Title Commitment and the Survey, except only as provided in Section 7(c) below. Seller shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the Objection Notice in which to notify Buyer (the “Objection Response”) of its election either to (A) correct or remove some or all of the title or survey objections contained in the Objection Notice, those which Seller elects to cure being referred to as “Curable Exceptions”), in which case Seller shall have until Closing to complete the cure or removal of the Curable Exceptions, or (B) refuse to correct or remove some or all of the title or survey objections contained in the Objection Notice (those which Seller elects not to cure being referred to as the “Non-Curable Exceptions”). Seller’s failure to provide Buyer with a Seller’s Objection Response within the time period set forth above shall be deemed to be Seller’s election under subsection (B) above, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth. If any Non-Curable Exceptions exist or are deemed to exist (by virtue of Seller’s refusal to cure in Seller's Objection Response or Seller’s deemed refusal by not providing a Seller’s Objection Notice), then on or before five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of the Objection Response or non-receipt thereof after delivery of Buyer’s Objection Notice, at the option of Buyer, Buyer may (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event Escrow Agent shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer immediately upon request and all rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement shall expire except for those matters expressly intended to survive termination of this Agreement, or (ii) waive the Non-Curable Exceptions, whereupon all such Non-Curable Exceptions shall become Permitted Exceptions and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price.

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller covenants and agrees that prior to the Closing Date Seller shall be obligated, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, to: (A) remove the lien of any unsatisfied mortgages, deeds of trust, or deeds to secure debt encumbering the Property arising against, under or through Seller; (B) remove any monetary lien or encumbrance, including, without limitation, mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens, affecting the Property or any part thereof arising against, under or through Seller; (C) remove any lien arising as a result of delinquent taxes or assessments accruing prior to Closing; and (D) remove any encumbrance affecting the Property and arising against, under or through Seller after the effective date of the Title Commitment without Buyer’s written consent (the items described in subsections (A), (B), (C) and (D) above are each hereinafter a “Financial Encumbrance” and collectively the “Financial Encumbrances”).

(d)            Buyer shall have the continuing right to examine title to the Property after the Due Diligence Period and, in connection with any document, instrument or notice filed with respect to the Property after the effective date of the Title Commitment, Buyer shall be entitled to send an additional Objection Notice to Seller, in which case, the time periods set forth herein to send a Seller's Objection Response and a response thereto shall apply (with a corresponding extension of the Closing Date, if so required), and the rights and obligations of Buyer and Seller with regard to such additional notices shall be the same as the original notices, all as more particularly set forth in Section 7(b) above.

8.             Survey. Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, may obtain a new or updated ALTA survey of the Property (the “Survey”) by a surveyor registered and licensed in the state where the Land is located and designated by Buyer, which survey shall depict such information as Buyer shall require.

9.             Proceedings at Closing. On the Closing Date, the Closing shall take place as set forth in this Agreement and as follows:

(a)            Seller shall deliver to Title Company the following documents and instruments, all properly executed and in form and substance acceptable to Buyer and Title Company (collectively, the “Closing Documents”):

(iv)           Seller shall have performed and observed all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement to be performed and observed by Seller as of the Closing;

(v)            Buyer shall have confirmed that the OP Units can be issued to Seller or its assignee in a manner that complies with all rules, regulations and statutes, including all securities regulations;

(b)            Failure to Satisfy Buyer’s Conditions Precedent. If any of the conditions precedent provided in Section 12(a) above have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date (as same may be extended), then Buyer may, at its option, by written notice delivered to Seller no later than the Closing Date, (i) terminate this Agreement in writing, whereupon Buyer and Seller shall have no further obligations, one to the other, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for obligations expressly surviving termination or (ii) extend the Closing Date for an additional ten (10) business days in order to satisfy such condition prior to Closing or (iii) waive such condition precedent and proceed to Closing with no reduction in the Purchase Price.

In the event this Agreement is terminated as a result of the failure of any condition set forth in Section 12(a) and Buyer is not in default hereunder, Escrow Agent shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer; provided, however, if a failed condition precedent hereunder is also a breach or default by Seller, then Buyer shall be entitled to pursue the remedies available to it pursuant to Section 14 hereof and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be disbursed pursuant to Section 14 hereof.

(c)            Seller Conditions Precedent.

(ii)           Buyer shall have confirmed that the OP Units can be issued to Seller or its assignee in a manner that complies with all rules, regulations and statutes, including all securities regulations; and

(iii)          Buyer shall have performed and observed in all material respects all covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed and observed by Buyer as of the date of Closing, including, without limitation, funding in escrow the balance of the Purchase Price, plus the costs, expenses and prorations (if any) required to be paid by Buyer hereunder, and subject to any opportunities to cure provided to Buyer by this Agreement.

13.           Possession. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Buyer at Closing, subject only to the Leases and Service Contracts assigned to Buyer in accordance with this Agreement and the Permitted Exceptions.

14.           Remedies.

(a)            Buyer Default. Except for any failure waived in writing by Seller, if the purchase and sale of the Property is not consummated in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement due to circumstances or conditions which constitute a default by Buyer under this Agreement or if any of the representations and warranties made by Buyer under this Agreement shall be inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect as of Closing, after ten (10) days’ notice to Buyer, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Seller as full liquidated damages for such default. Seller and Xxxxx acknowledge that Seller’s actual damages in the event of a default by Buyer under this Agreement will be difficult to ascertain, that such liquidated damages represent the Seller’s and Xxxxx’s best estimate of such damages, and that Seller and Buyer believe such liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of such damages. Seller and Xxxxx expressly acknowledge that the foregoing liquidated damages are intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages, in the event of Buyer’s default and as compensation for Seller’s taking the Property off the market during the term of this Agreement. Seller hereby waives and releases any right to sue Buyer, and hereby covenants not to sue Buyer, for specific performance of this Agreement or to prove that Seller’s actual damages exceed the Xxxxxxx Money which is herein provided Seller as full liquidated damages.

(a)            Seller Default. Except for any breaches waived in writing by Buyer, if Seller breaches any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or has failed, refused or is unable to consummate the purchase and sale contemplated herein by the Closing Date or if any of the representations and warranties made by Seller under this Agreement shall be inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect as of Closing, provided Buyer is not then in default of its obligations under this Agreement, Buyer shall have, as its sole and exclusive remedy after ten (10) days’ notice to Seller, to elect either to: (A) terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Xxxxxxx Money (plus any accrued interest), in which event (i) Seller shall pay the cancellation charges of Escrow Agent and reimburse Buyer for its demonstrated actual out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, including but not limited to legal and other professional fees, incurred by Buyer in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement up to a limit of $250,000.00, and (ii) this Agreement shall have no further force and effect, except for those matters expressly intended to survive termination of this Agreement; or (B) commence an action for specific performance of this Agreement if the nature of Seller’s default has not rendered specific performance unavailable, but any action for specific performance must be commenced, if at all, within sixty (60) days of Buyer’s knowledge of Seller’s default; or (C) waive the default or failure and close “as is” with no reduction in the Purchase Price. Buyer expressly waives any right to recover, benefit-of-bargain, consequential or speculative damages.

(b)            In the event that any litigation shall arise between the parties hereto as to the subject matter of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party, in addition to any other damages such party shall be entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement, all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

15.           Casualty; Risk of Loss; Insurance. Between the date of this Agreement and Closing, the risks and obligations of ownership and loss of the Property and the correlative rights against insurance carriers and third parties shall belong to Seller. In the event of any material damage or destruction of any portion of the Property prior to Closing not caused by or through Buyer, Buyer shall have the right, at Buyer’s sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to Closing, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be refunded to Buyer and Buyer and Seller shall have no further obligations, one to the other, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for obligations expressly surviving termination. If Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be closed in accordance with the terms hereof and Seller shall pay to Buyer at Closing all insurance proceeds it has received for such casualty before Closing by reason of such casualty loss and at Closing Seller shall assign to Buyer any rights to future insurance proceeds by reason of such casualty loss, and Seller shall also remit to Buyer at Closing an amount equal to Seller’s insurance deductible applicable to such casualty loss. Seller shall maintain in force its current casualty insurance coverage on the Property until the Closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Xxxxxx agrees to take all action reasonably necessary to assist Xxxxx in obtaining any insurance proceeds which are assigned to Buyer pursuant to the terms herein. For the purposes of this Section 15, “material damage or destruction” shall mean any loss or damage to the Property which permanently and materially impairs the current use of the Property or costs in excess of $20,000.00 to repair or restore the Property to its condition prior to such casualty whether or not such damage is covered by insurance.

16.           Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, the Property or any portion thereof which, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer, would have a material adverse effect on the operation of the Property, is taken, or subject to being taken, under pending condemnation, eminent domain or similar governmental confiscatory proceedings, Buyer, at its sole option, by notice to Seller within twenty (20) days following the date on which Buyer has actual knowledge of such occurrence, may elect to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Buyer, and Xxxxx and Seller shall have no further obligations, one to the other, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for obligations expressly surviving termination. If Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement or otherwise does not duly terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 16, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be closed in accordance with the terms hereof and Seller shall pay to Buyer at Closing the amount of any proceeds it has received pursuant to such condemnation or eminent domain before Closing, and assign to Buyer any rights to future proceeds related thereto, subject in either event and in all respects to rights of tenants under Leases.

17.           Broker and Commission. All negotiations relative to this Agreement and the purchase and sale of the Property as contemplated by and provided for in this Agreement have been conducted by and between Seller and Buyer without the intervention of any person or other party as agent or broker. Buyer and Seller each agree to indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against any and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) relating to any claims for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions made by any broker or agent as a result of any representations or agreements alleged to have been made by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, to or with such broker or agent as a result of any negotiations or communications in connection with the Property or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive Closing.

18.           Notices. All notices and other communications given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be (a) mailed by first class, United States mail, postage prepaid, certified, with return receipt requested, and addressed to the parties hereto at the address listed below, (b) hand delivered to the intended addressee, (c) sent by nationally recognized overnight courier, or (d) sent by way of electronic mail, which, if receipt of which is not confirmed by the addressee of such electronic mail message within twenty-four (24) hours, then such message shall be followed by a confirmatory letter sent by notice methods (a), (b) or (c) above.

(f)             Severability. If any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall ever be held to be invalid or unenforceable, then in each such event the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such term, covenant, condition or provision to any other person or any other circumstance (other than those as to which it shall be invalid or unenforceable) shall not be thereby affected, and each term, covenant, condition and provision hereof shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(g)            Non-Waiver. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, failure by any party to complain of any action, non-action or breach of any other party shall not constitute a waiver of any aggrieved party’s rights hereunder. Waiver by any party of any right arising from any breach of any other party shall not constitute a waiver of any other right arising from a subsequent breach of the same obligation or for any other default, past, present or future.

(h)            Time of Essence. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, time is of the essence of this Agreement.

The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any statutory or decisional law to the contrary, the printed or digital product of a facsimile or electronic mail transmittal, including counter parts as provided in Section 19(k), shall be deemed to be “written” and a “writing” for all purposes of this Agreement.

(k)            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary for all the parties to execute each counterpart for this Agreement to be binding and this Agreement shall be binding if each party executes at least one counterpart hereof.

(l)             Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue.

(m)           Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior discussions and agreements among Seller and Buyer with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property and other matters contained herein, and this Agreement contains the sole and entire understanding among Seller and Buyer with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be changed or terminated orally, but may only be changed or amended by a writing duly executed by both Xxxxxx and Xxxxx. Stipulations and covenants set forth herein shall apply to and bind the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the respective parties, subject to the provisions of Section 19(a). This Agreement shall not be binding until signed by both Buyer and Seller.

(n)            Counsel. Each party has been afforded the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its choice in connection with the execution of this Agreement and has had ample opportunity to read, review, and understand the provisions of this Agreement.

(o)            No Construction Against Preparer. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party’s having or being deemed to have prepared or imposed such provision.

(p)            Confidentiality. Seller and Xxxxx agree to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential except as permitted by this Section. Accordingly, neither party shall disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any other person or entity other than (i) such party’s attorneys, accountants, lenders, investors, consultants, representatives, employees and agents, and (ii) such other parties as are required by law or by court order, without obtaining the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that this confidentiality requirement shall not survive the Closing.

(q)            1031 Exchange. Seller and Xxxxx acknowledge that both parties have the right to sell and purchase the Property under the provisions of an Internal Revenue Service Section 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange (the “Exchange”). Seller and Buyer hereby agree to cooperate in executing any document required by such an Exchange provided that (i) each party incurs no additional cost or liability due to such an Exchange and (ii) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by an Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of the Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to the obligations under this Agreement of the party conducting the Exchange and (iii) the party conducting an Exchange (the “Exchangor”) shall effect the Exchange through a qualified intermediary and the other party shall not be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for the purposes of consummating such Exchange and (iv) the Exchangor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party from and against any costs, expense, or liabilities incurred as a result of the Exchange conducted by the Exchangor, included, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees, accounting fees and any other expenses incurred as a result of an I.R.S. audit of the Exchange. Neither party shall by this agreement of acquiescence to an Exchange (1) have its rights under this Agreement affected in any manner, or (2) be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the party conducting the Exchange that such Exchange in fact complies with §1031 of the Code.

(r)            IRC Section 721 Exchange. The parties hereto acknowledge that they intend to engage in a Section 721 Exchange (the “UPREIT”) pursuant to Section 721 of Title 26 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “IRC”) with respect to this transaction. As such, the parties agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the UPREIT, including the execution of documents, at no additional cost, liability or delay in closing this transaction to the cooperating party, but that the Closing Date shall not be extended on this account. Each party agrees to indemnify the other party against any claims or liabilities resulting solely from structuring the transaction as an UPREIT. Seller and Buyer shall not by participation in any such UPREIT (i) be required to undertake any obligations of third parties, or (ii) be responsible for compliance with Section 721 of the IRC.

(s)            Intentionally deleted.

ESCROW AGENT ADDENDUM

This Escrow Agent Addendum (the “Addendum”) is hereby made a part of that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of the Effective Date (the “Agreement”) by and between Seller, Buyer and Escrow Agent for the sole purpose of memorializing the terms of this Addendum. Capitalized terms utilized herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.

Xxxxxx and Xxxxx have agreed and are desirous and willing that the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Agreement take place in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Addendum.

NOW, THEREFORE, in furtherance of the transaction contemplated hereby and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.             Seller and Xxxxx hereby appoint Escrow Agent to hold Xxxxxxx Money, and Xxxxxx Agent accepts appointment and agrees to act in accordance with the terms of this Addendum and the Agreement. It is hereby expressly agreed that in the event a conflict should arise as between the terms of this Addendum and those of the Agreement, the terms of this Addendum shall control. Seller and Buyer agree (a) that Escrow Agent shall be a stakeholder only and not liable for any losses, costs or damages it may incur in performing its responsibilities hereunder unless such losses, costs or damages shall arise out of the willful default or gross negligence of Escrow Agent or its agents, (b) that no releases or disbursements shall be made hereunder except upon consistent written instructions from both Seller and Buyer, their respective counsel or their successors or assigns; (c) that in the event of a dispute hereunder between Xxxxxx and Xxxxx (or their successors or assigns), Escrow Agent shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to be discharged by tendering unto the registry or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction, the closing documents and the Escrow Funds, together with any such legal pleadings as it deems appropriate; and (d) that in the event Escrow Agent tenders the funds to the court in an interpleader action, Escrow Agent shall have the right to charge an additional administrative fee of $500.00 towards its costs.

2.             Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Funds held in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, or as otherwise provided by the written instruction from both Buyer and Seller, or their respective counsel. Said written instructions may not be unreasonably withheld and may be given in duplicate counterparts and by electronic mail. Escrow Agent requests delivery of such instructions at least 24 hours before disbursement is needed. Escrow Agent shall have the right to deduct Escrow Agent’s unpaid fee and any costs Escrow Agent has incurred for overnight delivery charges or wire transfer fees from the Escrow Funds held prior to disbursement.

3.             Upon receipt of any written certification from Seller or Buyer claiming the Escrow Funds pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the non-requesting party and unless the non-requesting party within 5 business days from receipt of said notice objects to the requested disbursement of the Escrowed Funds, Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Funds to the requesting party and shall thereupon be released and discharged from any further duty or obligation hereunder.

4.             All checks, money orders, wires or drafts sent to Escrow Agent under this Addendum will be processed for collection in the normal course of business. Escrow Agent will not commingle funds received by it in escrow with funds of others and, if required by the Agreement, shall invest such funds in a money market account with a federally insured bank or in a money market fund rated AAA by at least one nationally-recognized rating firm. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss caused by the failure, suspension, bankruptcy or dissolution of any such investment vehicle or fund.

5.             Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from the following: (a) any default, error, action or omission of any other party, except its agents, employees, and representatives; (b) the expiration of any time limit unless such time limit was known to Escrow Agent and such loss is solely caused by failure of Escrow Agent to proceed in its ordinary course of business; (c) any loss or impairment of funds while invested in a money market fund that was AAA-rated at the time of the investment or on deposit with a federally insured Bank, resulting from failure, insolvency or suspension of such bank or fund; (d) Escrow Agent complying with any and all legal process, writs, orders, judgments and decrees of any court whether issued with or without jurisdiction and whether or not subsequently vacated, modified, set aside or reversed.

6.             Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the instructions of Xxxxxx and Xxxxx and other matters covered by the instructions from Seller and Buyer, and Escrow Agent shall not be required to investigate the authority of the person executing and delivering such instructions, or otherwise verify the accuracy of the statements of information presented therein, unless such failure to so act would constitute willful wrongful act or omission or gross negligence.

7.             The terms and provisions of this Addendum are for the benefit of Seller, Xxxxx and Xxxxxx Agent and their respective successors and assigns only. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to inure to the benefit of any other person or party, it being the express intent of Seller, Buyer and Escrow Agent that no such person or party shall be entitled to any of the benefits hereof, except as herein expressly provided.

8.             Time is of the essence of this Addendum. This Addendum may be executed by electronic signatures, which for all purposes shall be deemed to constitute originals. This Addendum may be executed in counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be deemed one original.

9.             Pursuant to 26 CFR § 1.468B-7, any interest earned on the funds held in escrow shall accrue to the benefit of the party entitled to such interest under the Agreement and said beneficiary authorizes Escrow Agent to sign any necessary signature cards on its behalf.

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

THIS SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the _____ day of _____________, 202__, by and between _______________________________ (“Landlord”), _______________________ (“Lender”), and ____________________________ (“Tenant”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Landlord owns all right, title and interest in that certain real property being, lying and situated in ___________ County, State of _________________, and more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Property”); and

WHEREAS, the Property and the improvements located thereon are the subject of a lease agreement dated ________________ made by and between the Landlord (or its predecessor-in-interest) and Tenant (together with all modifications thereto, the “Lease”), whereby the Tenant has agreed to lease all or a portion of the Property and the improvements located thereon from Landlord (the “Leased Premises”); and

WHEREAS, a promissory note has or will be given to the Lender, secured by, among other things, a Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement from Landlord to Lender (collectively the “Security Instrument”), encumbering the Property and the Leased Premises and recorded or to be recorded with the real estate records where the Property is located; and

WHEREAS, it is the desire and intention of the parties hereto to subordinate the operation of the Lease for the full term thereof to the lien and operation of the Security Instrument, so that the Security Instrument shall and will become a lien upon the Leased Premises and the Lease will be subordinated thereto in every manner whatsoever, subject to the express terms hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties thereto intending to be legally bound hereby, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the sum of Ten and No/100ths Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, agree as follows:

1.             Subordination. The Lease, together with all rights, options, liens and charges created thereby, is and shall be junior, inferior, subject and subordinate in each and every respect to the lien, operation and effect of the Security Instrument and to any and all advancements made thereunder and to any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, advances and extensions thereof and all other documents, including an Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits executed by Landlord in favor of Lender (the “Assignment”), and all extensions, modifications and renewals thereof, now or hereafter additionally securing said sum, to the same extent as if such Security Instrument and other documents have been executed, delivered and recorded prior to the execution of the Lease, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2.             Non-Disturbance. The Lender does hereby agree with the Tenant that, so long as the Tenant complies with the terms, conditions and covenants of the Lease and performs its obligations under the Lease, (a) the Lender will take no action which will interfere with or disturb the Tenant’s possession or lawful use of the Leased Premises or other rights under the Lease, and (b) in the event the Lender becomes the owner of the Property by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, the Property shall be subject to the Lease and the Lender shall recognize the Tenant as a tenant on the Property for the remainder of the term of the Lease in accordance with the provisions thereof; provided, however, that in no event shall the Lender be liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord, or subject to any offsets or defenses which the Tenant might have against any prior landlord, nor shall the Lender be bound by any rent or additional rent which the Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior landlord (other than prepaid estimates for tax, insurance and common area maintenance charges paid in the ordinary course as such estimates become due under the Lease) nor shall it be bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without its consent or liable for any security deposit the Tenant might have paid to the Landlord or any other person, except to the extent the Lender has actually received said security deposit.

3.             Attornment. The Tenant does hereby agree with the Lender that in the event the Lender becomes the owner of the Property by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, then the Tenant shall attorn to and recognize the Lender as the landlord under the Lease for the remainder of the term thereof, and the Tenant shall perform and observe its obligations thereunder, subject only to the terms and conditions of said Lease. The Tenant further covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon request of the Lender, or its successors or assigns, an appropriate agreement of attornment to any subsequent title holder of the Property.

4.              Notices Under Lease. So long as the Security Instrument remains outstanding and unsatisfied, the Tenant will mail or deliver to the Lender, at the address and in the manner provided below, a copy of all notices permitted or required to be given to the Landlord by the Tenant under and pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Lease. Prior to terminating the Lease due to a default by the Landlord, the Tenant agrees to notify the Lender of such default and give the Lender the opportunity to cure such default within thirty (30) days of the Lender’s receipt of such notice (or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, the Lender shall have such longer time as may be necessary to cure the default, provided that the Lender commences the cure within such period and diligently pursues the cure thereafter).

5.             Assignment of Lease. The Tenant acknowledges that the Landlord will execute and deliver to the Lender the Assignment as security for the loans which the Security Instrument secures, and that Xxxxxx would not complete the financing arrangements but for the execution by Tenant of this Agreement, and the Tenant hereby expressly consents to such Assignment and agrees that Lender may rely hereon for all purposes, including consummation of the loans. The Tenant agrees that if Xxxxxx, pursuant to the Assignment, and whether or not it becomes a mortgagee in possession, shall give notice to the Tenant that the Lender has elected to require the Tenant to pay the Lender rent and other charges payable by the Tenant under the Lease, the Tenant shall, until the Lender shall have canceled such election, thereafter pay to the Lender all rent and other sums payable under the Lease.

6.             Estoppel. The Landlord and the Tenant hereby certify to the Lender that the Lease is in full force and effect subject to the express terms thereof; that the Lease and any modifications and amendments specified herein are a complete statement of the agreement between the Landlord and the Tenant with respect to the leasing of the Leased Premises, and the Lease has not been modified or amended except as specified herein; that to the knowledge of the Landlord and the Tenant, no party to the Lease is in default thereunder; that no rent under the Lease has been paid more than one month in advance of its due date; and that the Tenant as of this date, has no charge, lien or claim of offset under the Lease, or otherwise, against the rents or other charges due or to become due thereunder.

7.             Notices. Any and all notices, elections or demands permitted or required to be made under this Agreement shall be in writing, signed by the party giving such notice, election or demand and shall be delivered personally, or sent by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by national overnight courier to the other party at the address set forth below, or at such other address within the United States as may have theretofore been designated in writing.

The Lender’s successors and assigns shall include, without limitation, any party or parties that succeed to Xxxxxx’s interest in the Property by virtue of a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of the Security Instrument or by virtue of a conveyance in lieu of a foreclosure or other transfer of the Property.

9.             Non-Waiver. No indulgence, waiver, election or non-election by the Lender under the Security Instrument, the Assignment or any other loan documents associated with the Security Instrument and Assignment shall affect this Agreement.

10.             Modification of Agreement. The parties hereby agree that this document contains the entire agreement between the parties, and this Agreement shall not be modified, changed, altered or amended in any way except through written amendments signed by all of the parties hereto.

11.             Governing Law. It is agreed that the laws of the state where the Security Instrument is recorded shall govern the construction and interpretation of this Agreement and the rights and obligations set forth herein.

12.             Severance. The invalidity or unenforceability of any portion of this Agreement shall not affect the remaining provisions and portions hereof.

13.             Term of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall terminate upon the cancellation of record of the Security Instrument, unless the same is earlier terminated by a termination agreement executed and delivered to the Tenant by the Lender.
