AMENDED AND RESTATED PIPELINE PROPERTY AGREEMENT
(FOR MOB DEVELOPMENT, MANAGEMENT AND ROFOS)
(FOR MOB DEVELOPMENT, MANAGEMENT AND ROFOS)
IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual covenants contained in this Amended and Restated Pipeline
Property Agreement (For MOB Development, Management and ROFOs) (this “Agreement”) and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, NATIONWIDE HEALTH PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation (“NHP”), NHP/PMB
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “OP”), PMB LLC, a California limited liability
company (“PMB”), and PMB Real Estate Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“PMBRES”), hereby agree, effective as of February 1, 2010 (the “Effective Date”),
to the terms of this Agreement and that the Pipeline Property Agreement, dated April 1, 2008 (as
amended to date, the “Original Agreement”), among the parties hereto is hereby amended,
restated and replaced it in its entirety with this Agreement. All capitalized terms used and not
otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth for the same on Exhibit “A”
attached hereto.
1. TERM.
The term of this Agreement, and the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder, shall commence
effective as of April 1, 2008, and shall automatically terminate and be of no further force or
effect upon the earliest to occur of:
(a) April 1, 2019;
(b) if any time after three Strikes (as defined in Section 2.7) have occurred, the date on
which NHP and the OP receive written notice from PMB of the occurrence of such third Strike and
PMB’s election to terminate this Agreement; and
(c) the date on which the aggregate of Total Project Costs for all Approved Properties (as
defined in Section 2.8), with respect to which a Contribution Transaction has occurred or for which
a Contribution Agreement has been executed and as to which NHP and the OP are obligated thereunder
to consummate a Contribution Transaction in accordance with the terms thereof, equals at least One
Billion Three Hundred Forty Eight Million Dollars ($1,348,000,000).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) PMB may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement
earlier at any time upon written notice to NHP and the OP if (x) the Common Stock of NHP, or any
capital stock into which the Common Stock of NHP may hereafter be converted (including any shares
of common stock of any successor or acquiring corporation received by or distributed to the holders
of the Common Stock of NHP), ceases to be listed on a national securities exchange (or is suspended
from trading on any such exchange for more than fourteen (14) consecutive trading days) or (y) NHP
(or the issuer of any common stock of any successor or acquiring corporation received by or
distributed to the holders of the Common Stock of NHP) fails to qualify as a REIT, and (ii) the
parties’ rights and obligations with respect to Competitive Properties under (and as defined in)
Section 5 hereof shall continue for so long as the OP shall continue to own (whether directly or
indirectly) any material portion of any Protected Property (as defined in Section 5.1).
2. PMB DEVELOPMENT PIPELINE.
2.1 Delivery of Preliminary Notice of MOB Development; Non-Qualifying MOBs. For each
property that PMB and/or any one or more of its affiliates intends to develop (or has commenced
development) into a MOB (a “Property”), other than one that constitutes a Non-Qualifying
MOB pursuant to clause (a), (c), (d) or (e) of the definition thereof set forth below in this
Section 2.1, PMB shall deliver to NHP and the OP a written notice (a “Preliminary Notice”)
in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and
regardless of the delivery of such Preliminary Notice, the parties shall not be obligated to
execute a JV Agreement or a Contribution Agreement or otherwise consummate a Contribution
Transaction with respect to any Property that is determined to be a Non-Qualifying MOB.
Accordingly, PMB and its affiliates may develop any Property that is a Non-Qualifying MOB without
regard to this Agreement. A “Qualifying MOB” means any Property that is not a
Non-Qualifying MOB. A “Non-Qualifying MOB” means any Property with respect to which any of
the following is true:
(a) the applicable Property is listed on Exhibit “B” attached hereto;
(b) subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.1, the applicable Property is not expected
upon completion thereof to be of a reasonably comparable commercial quality as those MOBs (i)
developed by PMB or an affiliate of PMB after the year 2000, and (ii) acquired by the OP pursuant
to the Master Contribution Agreement;
(c) the applicable Property is or will be encumbered by third party restrictions on financing
or sale, the removal of which are not within PMB’s or its affiliate’s sole control;
(d) the applicable Property is a MOB as to which PMB and/or its affiliates are acting solely
as a so-called “fee developer”;
(e) the applicable Property is located on a property or is a prospective project otherwise
identified on Exhibit “B” attached hereto, with respect to which PMB is already committed
or obligated as of October 25, 2007, to acquire and/or develop with a third party through a joint
venture or similar ownership structure; or
(f) PMB and NHP reasonably agree that the applicable Property should not be subject to a
Contribution Transaction because, (i) of requirements imposed by a hospital or then current market
conditions with respect to the ownership or ownership structure (including physician or hospital
participation) of the Property, or (ii) the development of such Property is originated through a
third party financing or joint venture source.
If a Property is a Non-Qualifying MOB solely because of clause (b) of the above definition, PMB
shall nevertheless be required to deliver a Preliminary Notice with respect to such Property in
accordance with Section 2.2 and NHP and the OP shall have the right to either approve or reject
such MOB as provided therein; provided, however, that if NHP and the OP agree in writing in advance
with PMB that a Property is a Non-Qualifying MOB, including because of clause (b) or (f) of the
above definition, then PMB shall not be required to deliver a Preliminary Notice with respect to
such Property in accordance with Section 2.2.
2
2.2 Preliminary Notice. Each Preliminary Notice required by Section 2.1 shall specify that
such notice is the Preliminary Notice with respect to a specified Property and include the
following information (collectively, the “Preliminary Information”):
(a) a statement as to whether PMB believes that such Property is or should be a Non-Qualifying
MOB pursuant to clauses (b) or (f) of the definition thereof in Section 2.1; and
(b) the materials and information identified on Exhibit “C” attached hereto (each, a
“Preliminary Summary”), which materials and information shall include a preliminary budget
detailing the projected Total Project Costs reasonably anticipated to be expended in connection
with the contemplated development of such Property, including certain construction, development and
leasing fees payable to PMB which PMB shall be entitled to receive so long as such amounts are not
greater than those set forth on Exhibit “E” attached hereto.
If NHP and the OP reasonably determine that any of the Preliminary Information for the applicable
Property has not been provided or otherwise made available in connection with the applicable
Preliminary Notice, NHP and the OP shall notify PMB within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of
such Preliminary Notice of any Preliminary Information which has not been provided or made
available and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Preliminary
Acceptance Period (as defined in Section 2.3) shall not be deemed to have commenced until such
information is provided.
2.3 Preliminary Acceptance Period. NHP and the OP shall have until 5:00 p.m., California
time, on the tenth (10th) Business Day following its receipt of each Preliminary Notice
(each, a “Preliminary Acceptance Period”) to review the Preliminary Information. PMB shall
cooperate reasonably with NHP and the OP during the Preliminary Acceptance Period to provide NHP
and the OP with any reasonable information in addition to the Preliminary Information as shall be
reasonably requested by them to evaluate the Property, but the same shall not extend the
Preliminary Acceptance Period. NHP and the OP shall give written notice to PMB of its initial
approval (each, an “Initial Approval Notice”) or its rejection (each, a “Preliminary
Rejection Notice”) of such Property on or before the expiration of the applicable Preliminary
Acceptance Period. If NHP and the OP fail to timely provide an Initial Approval Notice with
respect to a particular Property, then NHP and the OP shall be deemed to have delivered a
Preliminary Rejection Notice with respect to such Property. If NHP and the OP deliver or are
deemed to have delivered a Preliminary Rejection Notice with respect to any Property, they shall
have no further rights with respect to such Property and PMB and its affiliates may develop or
pursue development of such Property without regard to this Agreement. If NHP and the OP timely
deliver an Initial Approval Notice with respect to any Property, the provisions of Sections 2.5,
2.6 and 2.8 below shall apply.
2.4 Non-Qualifying MOB Dispute. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to
the contrary, if (a) the applicable Preliminary Summary with respect to any Property contends that
such Property is a Non-Qualifying MOB pursuant to clauses (b) or (f) of the definition thereof in
Section 2.1, and (b) NHP and the OP disagree with PMB’s contention as set forth therein, then on or
before the expiration of such Preliminary Acceptance Period, NHP and the OP shall give an Initial
Approval Notice with respect to such Property along with notice that NHP and the OP disagree with
PMB’s contention that such Property is a Non-Qualifying
3
MOB (each, a “Disagreement Notice”). In such event, the parties shall meet in person
or by telephone within three (3) Business Days after PMB’s receipt of any such Disagreement Notice
to attempt to mutually agree upon whether such Property is a Non-Qualifying MOB or a Qualifying
MOB. In the event that the parties are not able to agree within five (5) Business Days after any
in person or telephone meeting, then, notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 9.15 hereof,
the Dispute (as defined in Section 9.15) shall be submitted to mediation and, if necessary,
resolved at the written request of any party to this Agreement by binding arbitration in accordance
with the arbitration provisions of Section 9.15 hereof. If the parties agree, or it is determined
through mediation or binding arbitration, that such Property is a (i) Non-Qualifying MOB, then the
provisions of Section 2.1 with respect to Non-Qualifying MOBs shall apply, or (ii) Qualifying MOB,
then NHP’s and the OP’s Initial Approval Notice shall constitute their initial approval of such
Property and the provisions of Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.8 shall apply. If NHP and the OP fail to
timely deliver a Disagreement Notice, then each of NHP and the OP shall be deemed to have agreed
with PMB’s determination as to whether the applicable Property is a Non-Qualifying MOB. The later
of (A) the delivery of an Initial Approval Notice and (B) if applicable, the date of determination
that a Property is a Qualifying MOB, notwithstanding that PMB contended that it was a
Non-Qualifying MOB, whether by agreement of the parties, mediation or binding arbitration, shall be
referred to herein as the “Preliminary Approval Date.”
2.5 Financing Matters; Abandonment.
(a) Each of NHP and the OP agrees that during the period of time between the Preliminary
Approval Date and the Final Date (as defined in Section 2.6) for a Property, PMB will need to
understand the available mortgage construction financing for such Property in order to accurately
prepare, if at all, the Final Information Package (as defined in Section 2.6) for such Property; it
being understood, that if such Property becomes an Approved Property (as defined in Section 2.8),
NHP will be responsible for securing financing for such Approved Property pursuant to the terms of
the JV Agreement for such Approved Property. Accordingly, PMB may, from time to time during the
period from and after the Preliminary Approval Date until the Final Date for a Property, request
that NHP gather the then available market terms for potential mortgage construction financing for
such Property by delivering a written request therefor to NHP, which request shall include PMB’s
then good faith estimate of the Total Project Costs for such Property (a “Financing
Request”); it being further acknowledged and agreed by the parties that NHP shall not be
required to seek any amount of financing for an Approved Property that would result in less than
ten percent (10%) of the Approved Budgeted Costs for such Approved Property being funded in the
form of equity contributions from one or more members of the JV Entity (such ten percent (10%)
equity requirement being hereinafter referred to as the “Equity Requirement”). Within ten
(10) Business Days of NHP’s receipt of any such Financing Request (or such longer period to the
extent necessary, as long as NHP is diligently proceeding in good faith), NHP shall deliver a
written notice to PMB setting forth the then available market terms for potential mortgage
construction financing for such Property (“Market Terms”).
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, each of NHP and the OP
acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is likely that, with respect to any proposed Property, there
may be a significant period of time between the Preliminary Approval Date and the Final Date for
such Property in order to permit PMB to fully analyze such Property, including any requested Market
Terms with respect thereto, and to prepare and finalize, if at all, the Final Information Package,
and (ii) at any time between the Preliminary Approval Date and
4
the Final Date for a Property (including after receipt of any Market Terms), PMB may, in its sole
discretion, elect to abandon such Property, in which case PMB shall promptly notify each of NHP and
the OP of the same in writing.
(c) At any time prior to the Final Date for a Property when PMB is otherwise close to being
ready to deliver the Final Information Package for such Property, PMB may request that NHP obtain
and deliver to PMB one actual mortgage construction financing loan proposal for such Property by
delivering a written request therefor to NHP, which request shall include PMB’s then good faith
estimate of the Total Project Costs for such Property (a “Loan Proposal Request”). Within
thirty (30) days of NHP’s receipt of a Loan Proposal Request (or such longer period to the extent
necessary, as long as NHP is diligently proceeding in good faith), NHP shall deliver to PMB a copy
of one actual mortgage construction financing proposal for such Property (which shall comply with
the Equity Requirement) (the “Loan Proposal”).
(d) In the event that the Loan Proposal requires that more than thirty percent (30%) of the
Approved Budgeted Costs for such Approved Property be funded in the form of equity contributions
from one or more members of the JV Entity, then PMB may request that NHP obtain and deliver to PMB
two additional actual mortgage construction financing loan proposals for such Property by
delivering a written request therefor to NHP (an “Additional Loan Proposal Request”) within
twenty (20) days after the date upon which PMB receives the Loan Proposal. Within thirty (30) days
of NHP’s receipt of an Additional Loan Proposal Request (or such longer period to the extent
necessary, as long as NHP is diligently proceeding in good faith), NHP shall deliver to PMB copies
of two additional actual mortgage construction financing proposals for such Property (which shall
each comply with the Equity Requirement) (collectively, the “Additional Loan Proposals”).
Notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.5(c) hereof to the contrary, as between the original Loan
Proposal and the Additional Loan Proposals (if any) for a Property, the proposal mutually selected
by PMB and NHP (which the parties agree to select in good faith) shall be deemed to be the “Loan
Proposal” thereafter for all purposes under the terms of Section 2.5(e) and Exhibit “D”
attached hereto; provided, however, that if PMB and NHP cannot mutually agree within ten (10) days
of PMB’s receipt of the Additional Loan Proposals as to which of the three (3) proposals to select,
then the proposal that requires the lowest amount of equity contributions (but still complies with
the Equity Requirement) shall be deemed to be the “Loan Proposal” thereafter for all purposes under
the terms of Section 2.5(e) and Exhibit “D” attached hereto, provided that such proposal is
substantially consistent with the rest of the terms in the original Loan Proposal.
(e) PMB shall, within thirty (30) days after the date upon which it receives the Loan Proposal
for a Property pursuant to Section 2.5(c) hereof, or the date that the Loan Proposal is deemed
selected pursuant to Section 2.5(d) hereof, if applicable, either (i) deliver the Final Information
Package for the applicable Property utilizing the information contained in the Loan Proposal, (ii)
notify NHP and the OP in writing that PMB elects to abandon such Property or (iii) notify NHP and
the OP in writing that PMB elects to delay making a decision as to whether or not to deliver the
Final Information Package or abandon the Property (in which case, such election to delay shall mean
that when PMB thereafter becomes close to being ready to deliver a Final Information Package for
such Property, the terms of Section 2.5(c) (and, thereafter, the terms of Sections 2.5(d), (e) and
(f)) shall apply once again to such Property).
5
(f) In the event that PMB elects to abandon a Property pursuant to the terms of this Section
2.5, then thereafter neither PMB nor any affiliate of PMB may acquire, own or develop (or pursue
the acquisition, ownership or development of) such Property either on its own or with any other
person or entity at any time during the term of this Agreement.
2.6 Final Acceptance Period. If NHP and the OP shall timely deliver an Initial Approval
Notice within the applicable Preliminary Acceptance Period, then NHP and the OP shall have until
5:00 p.m., California time, on the tenth (10th) Business Day (the “Final Acceptance
Period”) following PMB’s delivery to NHP and the OP of the last of the materials and
information identified on Exhibit “D” attached hereto (each, a “Final Information
Package”) in which to complete its due diligence regarding such Property; provided, however,
that if NHP and the OP reasonably determine that any portion of the Final Information Package for
the applicable Property has not been completely provided or otherwise made available, NHP and the
OP shall notify PMB within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of such Final Information Package
of the portions of such Final Information Package which have not been provided or made available
and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Final Acceptance Period shall
not be deemed to have commenced until such information is provided. During the period from the
Preliminary Approval Date to and until the earlier of (a) abandonment of such Property by PMB
pursuant to Section 2.5 and (b) delivery to NHP and the OP of the Final Information Package for
such Property, if at all (such earlier date being hereinafter referred to as the “Final
Date”), PMB shall keep each of NHP and the OP reasonably informed as to the status of such
proposed Property and PMB’s efforts with respect to the same. After delivery to NHP and the OP of
the Final Information Package for such Property, if at all, PMB shall cooperate reasonably with NHP
and the OP during the Final Acceptance Period to provide NHP and the OP with any reasonable
information in addition to the Final Information Package as shall be reasonably requested by NHP
and the OP to evaluate such Property, but the same shall not extend the Final Acceptance Period.
NHP and the OP shall give written notice to PMB of their final approval (each, a “Final
Approval Notice”) or rejection (each, a “Final Rejection Notice”) of such Property on
or before the expiration of the applicable Final Acceptance Period. If NHP and the OP fail to
timely provide a Final Approval Notice within the Final Acceptance Period with respect to a
particular Property, then NHP and the OP shall be deemed to have delivered a Final Rejection Notice
with respect to such Property. If NHP and the OP deliver or are deemed to have delivered a Final
Rejection Notice with respect to any Property, NHP and the OP shall have no further rights with
respect to such Property and PMB and its affiliates may develop or pursue development of such
Property without regard to this Agreement
2.7 Strikes. The delivery or deemed delivery by NHP or the OP of either a Preliminary
Rejection Notice or a Final Rejection Notice with respect to a Qualifying MOB shall constitute a
“Strike” if and at such time as PMB and/or one or more of its affiliates has commenced
construction activities with respect thereto (i.e., has both commenced grading the applicable
development site and obtained a construction loan or other debt or equity financing with respect to
such development). If a third Strike shall occur, PMB shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, it is expressly
understood that none of the following shall be considered a Strike:
6
(a) PMB’s and/or one or more of its affiliates’ development of any Property that is a
Non-Qualifying MOB, regardless of whether a Preliminary Rejection Notice or Final Rejection Notice
has been delivered by NHP or the OP with respect thereto;
(b) any delivery of a Preliminary Rejection Notice with respect to a Property that PMB and NHP
agree or it is otherwise determined pursuant to Section 2.4 is a Non-Qualifying MOB under clause
(f) of the definition thereof set forth in Section 2.1; and
(c) the delivery by NHP of a Preliminary Rejection Notice or Final Rejection Notice with
respect to a Property of the type referred to in clause (b) of the definition of Non-Qualifying MOB
set forth in Section 2.1.
2.8 Approved Properties. If NHP and the OP timely deliver a Final Approval Notice with
respect to any Property, then such Property shall be deemed an “Approved Property” (and
collectively, with each other Approved Property, the “Approved Properties”) for purposes of
this Agreement and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, NHP shall secure the necessary mortgage
construction financing for such Approved Property upon terms consistent with those set forth in the
Final Information Package for such Approved Property (the “Financing”), and upon the
earlier of (i) the issuance of a firm loan commitment from the lender providing such Financing or
(ii) the closing of such Financing, the following shall occur:
(a) NHP shall execute and deliver (or, at NHP’s election, NHP shall cause a subsidiary that is
wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by NHP to execute and deliver), and PMB shall cause the
applicable PMB Member to execute and deliver, a JV Agreement relating to the development and
financing of such Approved Property; and
(b) NHP, the OP, PMB, the NHP Member and the PMB Member shall execute and deliver a
Contribution Agreement in order to set forth the terms and conditions of the future Contribution
Transaction with respect to such Approved Property.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that NHP is unable (despite
the use of good faith efforts) to secure the Financing for any Approved Property upon terms
consistent with those set forth in the Loan Proposal for such Approved Property, such inability
shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement and, instead, NHP shall promptly deliver a new Loan
Proposal to PMB and the process set forth in Sections 2.5(d), (e) and (f) and Section 2.6 shall
begin all over again for such Property.
2.9 Non-Approved Properties at End of Term. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, if a Property has not become an Approved Property prior to the expiration of the term
of this Agreement, then PMB and its affiliates may develop such Property without regard to this
Agreement (except for the provisions with respect to Competitive Properties of Section 5 hereof),
and without submitting to either NHP or the OP the Preliminary Information or a Final Information
Package with respect thereto.
2.10 Torrance Expansion MOB. Each of NHP, the OP and PMB acknowledge and agree that the
expansion MOB contemplated by Section 13.1 of the ground lease originally with PMB Torrance 1 LLC,
as lessee, for the Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Medical Office Building will be
7
pursued by PMB or an affiliate of PMB, and not by the OP or any subsidiary thereof, but in all
events shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement as a Property.
3. PMBRES RIGHT TO Manage NHP Properties.
3.1 Exclusive Right. So long as no material default by PMB is continuing hereunder and no
material default by PMBRES is continuing under any asset and/or property management agreement
entered into pursuant to the Master Contribution Agreement or any Contribution Agreement (herein, a
"Contribution Transaction Related Management Agreement”) or this Section 3, PMBRES will
have the exclusive right to provide property and asset management services with respect to any MOBs
first acquired or developed by NHP or any affiliate of NHP from and after April 1, 2008 located in
Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington or
Wyoming (each such property, a “NHP Property”, and collectively, the “NHP
Properties”), other than (a) any Excluded NHP Property, as defined in Section 3.3, or (b) any
property or interest therein acquired by the OP or any subsidiary thereof pursuant to the Master
Contribution Agreement or any Contribution Agreement, where PMBRES is entitled to enter into a
Contribution Transaction Related Management Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof.
Accordingly, NHP shall deliver a written notice to PMB and to PMBRES identifying any NHP Properties
that PMBRES shall have the right to manage pursuant to this Section 3 and, except as otherwise
provided in this Section 3, each of PMBRES and NHP (or its affiliate that is the owner of any such
NHP Property) shall deliver two (2) executed original counterparts of the applicable asset and
property management agreement (which shall be substantially in the form of the “Property Management
Agreement” (as defined in the Master Contribution Agreement), except that the term shall be limited
to the term of this Agreement and, if applicable, the “Asset Management Services” (as defined in
such form of Property Management Agreement) may be deleted therefrom pursuant to Section 3.3),
within the time period specified in such notice.
3.2 Waiver of Exclusive Right. At the request of NHP, PMB agrees to reasonably consider
and waive the provisions of Section 3.1 with respect to any particular NHP Property if (a) such new
NHP Property is being subsequently acquired pursuant to an extraordinary transaction (as opposed to
an ordinary course acquisition) or (b) NHP’s acquisition of such new NHP Property is conditioned
upon a requirement imposed by a third party to such transaction that such third party (or its
affiliates) retain the right to manage such NHP Property following NHP’s (or its affiliates)
acquisition thereof.
3.3 Excluded NHP Properties and Exclusions to Asset Management Services. “Excluded
NHP Property” shall mean any property owned by NHP or any affiliate of NHP that is leased on a
triple net basis to a single tenant that manages and operates such property for its own account and
pays all operating expenses, taxes and insurance directly (without the need for any third party
property management services). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
3, PMBRES shall not have the right to provide Asset Management Services with respect to those
properties known as “Southwest Washington” or “San Bernardino,” or any other properties for which
an asset management fee is not being charged (i.e., passed through) to the tenants thereof.
8
4. LINE OF CREDIT.
NHP shall continue to make available (or cause an affiliate of NHP to continue to make
available) the Ten Million Dollar ($10,000,000.00) line of credit pursuant to and in accordance
with the terms of that certain Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2008, by and
between PMB, as borrower, and NHP, as lender, as the same has been or may hereafter be amended from
time to time.
5. RIGHTS OF FIRST OFFER/REFUSAL.
5.1
Competitive Properties. For so long as the OP and/or NHP, directly or indirectly owns
any material portion of any real property acquired pursuant to the Master Contribution Agreement
and/or any Approved Property being developed pursuant to a JV Agreement or thereafter acquired
pursuant to a Contribution Agreement under this Agreement (individually, a “Protected
Property”, and collectively, the “Protected Properties”), PMB shall, prior to seeking
or negotiating any third party investments or financial arrangements with respect to a Competitive
Property (other than with any hospitals or doctors that may be affiliated with such Property),
deliver a ROFO Notice (as defined in, and in accordance with, Section 5.4) to NHP and the OP in the
event that PMB or its affiliates intend to acquire and develop a MOB, or acquire an existing MOB,
whether directly or indirectly and whether by fee or by leasehold, to the extent that such
additional real property, or any portion of such additional real property, is located in the
Competitive Area of such Protected Property (each, a “Competitive Property” and,
collectively, the “Competitive Properties”). The term “Competitive Area” shall mean
with respect to a given Protected Property (a) if such Protected Property is located on a hospital
campus, the hospital campus on which such Protected Property is situated or any real property
located across the street from such campus, and (b) if such Protected Property is not located on a
hospital campus, the area located within the one-half (1/2) mile radius of such Protected Property.
5.2 Protected Territory. During the term of this Agreement only, prior to seeking or
negotiating any third party investments (of debt or equity) with respect to any then existing MOB
that is to be acquired (whether by fee or by leasehold) by PMB or its affiliates, and is located
within the States of California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, New
Mexico, Hawaii and/or Montana (each, a “Western Property”), PMB shall deliver a ROFO Notice
(as defined in, and in accordance with, Section 5.4) to NHP and the OP.
5.3 Excluded ROFO Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5,
the Rights of First Offer and the Rights of First Refusal provided in this Section 5 shall not
apply to the extent the proposed transaction involves any of the following: (a) a property
encumbered by third party restrictions on financing or sale, the removal of which are not within
PMB’s or its affiliate’s sole control; (b) a property or a prospective project otherwise identified
on Exhibit “B” attached hereto, with respect to which PMB or an affiliate is already
committed or obligated as of October 25, 2007, to acquire and/or develop with a third party through
a joint venture or similar ownership; (c) a Property as to which NHP or the OP have delivered a
Preliminary Rejection Notice or a Final Rejection Notice; or (d) a property that PMB and NHP
reasonably agree should not be subject to a Right of First Offer or Right of First Refusal
hereunder because (i) of requirements imposed by a hospital or then current market conditions with
respect to the ownership and ownership structure (including physician or hospital
9
participation) of such property, or (ii) the acquisition or development of such property, as the
case may be, is originated through a third party financing or joint venture source.
5.4 ROFO Notice; Right of First Offer. A “ROFO Notice” shall (a) state PMB’s
intentions with respect to a Competitive Property or a Western Property, as the case may be (each,
a “ROFO Property”), (b) summarize the transaction that PMB or its affiliates are
considering (including, without limitation, information regarding the debt and equity, or ownership
interests or investment opportunities that PMB wishes to offer to a third party financial
institution or investor and what interests are likely to be held by doctors and/or hospitals), (c)
contain the material economic terms upon which PMB would, in good faith, expect to be able to enter
into its contemplated transaction in the market and (d) offer (in each case, a “Right of First
Offer”) to the OP the opportunity to consider whether it will participate in the contemplated
transaction on material economic terms substantially similar to those contained in such notice.
PMB shall also provide any reasonable additional information that it has with respect to the
transaction and such ROFO Property, which the OP may reasonably request in connection with its
consideration of the transaction. The OP shall have ten (10) Business Days from the date upon
which it receives a ROFO Notice to notify PMB of its exercise of such Right of First Offer (or to
notify PMB of its intention to exercise such Right of First Offer subject to the approval of NHP’s
Board of Directors, in which case the OP shall notify PMB of its exercise of such Right of First
Offer on or before the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the date upon which it
receives such ROFO Notice). If the OP has not responded to a ROFO Notice within the aforementioned
time periods, the OP shall have been deemed to waive its Right of First Offer with respect to such
ROFO Property, subject to the Right of First Refusal with respect to such ROFO Property and the
other express terms of this Section 5. Upon the OP’s rejection, or deemed rejection of a Right of
First Offer with respect to a ROFO Property, PMB shall then have the right to cause the transaction
described in such ROFO Notice to occur with any third party, provided that (i) the closing of such
transaction occurs within one (1) year of the date on which the OP is deemed to have waived such
Right of First Offer, and (ii) there are no Material Changes to the ROFO Terms (as defined in
Section 5.5) from those set forth in such ROFO Notice.
5.5 Material Changes to the ROFO Terms; Failure to Close. “Material Changes to the
ROFO Terms” shall mean that (a) the aggregate effective economic terms are less than
ninety-five percent (95%) of the aggregate effective economic terms set forth in the applicable
ROFO Notice and/or (b) any other material term is not substantially similar to such material term
as set forth in the applicable ROFO Notice. If any transaction with a third party relating to a
ROFO Property does not close within one (1) year of the date on which the OP is deemed to have
waived its Right of First Offer with respect thereto, such ROFO Property shall again become subject
to a Right of First Offer.
5.6 Revised Offer Notice; Right of First Refusal. If, after the OP rejects or is deemed to
have rejected its Right of First Offer with respect to any ROFO Property, there are any Material
Changes to the ROFO Terms with respect thereto from those set forth in the ROFO Notice, before
consummating any transaction with a third party based thereon, PMB shall provide written notice to
the OP of such Material Changes to the ROFO Terms (the “Revised Offer Notice”). The OP
shall then have the right to enter into the transaction upon the same terms as are set forth in the
Revised Offer Notice (a “Right of First Refusal”) by delivering written notice of its
exercise of such Right of First Refusal within ten (10) Business Days from the date upon which it
receives the Revised Offer Notice (or to notify PMB of its intention to exercise its Right of First
10
Refusal subject to the approval of NHP’s Board of Directors, in which case the OP shall notify PMB
of its exercise of a Right of First Refusal on or before the twentieth (20th) Business
Day following the date upon which it receives the Revised Offer Notice). If the OP has not
responded to the Revised Offer Notice within the aforementioned time periods, the OP shall have
been deemed to waive its Right of First Refusal with respect to such ROFO Property.
5.7 Closing. If the OP has exercised its Right of First Offer or Right of First Refusal
with respect to a ROFO Property pursuant to the terms of this Section 5, the OP and PMB shall use
good faith efforts to close such transaction within sixty (60) days of such exercise upon the terms
of definitive legal documents to be negotiated in good faith by the parties (substantially similar
to the applicable terms of a Contribution Agreement to the extent that the proposed transaction is
substantially similar to a Contribution Transaction, if at all) as soon as practicable following
the exercise of such Right of First Offer or Right of First Refusal, as the case may be, by the OP.

by reason of this Agreement.
9.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as may be

of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, enforcement or breach of
this Agreement, including any claim based on contract, tort or statute (collectively, a
“Dispute”), that cannot be resolved by the parties within thirty (30) days shall first be
submitted to mediation between the parties. In the event that such mediation does not resolve the
Dispute within ten (10) Business Days, the Dispute shall be resolved at the written request of any
party to this Agreement by binding arbitration using applicable arbitration procedures of JAMS
located in San Diego, California pursuant to California law. The parties shall attempt to
designate one
15
arbitrator from JAMS. If they are unable to do so within thirty (30) days after written
demand therefor, then JAMS shall designate an arbitrator. The arbitration shall be final and
binding, and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall award

the cost of arbitration to the party which is not the prevailing party. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, this Section 9.15 shall not prevent any party hereto from seeking
and obtaining equitable relief on a temporary or permanent basis, including, without limitation, a
temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or similar equitable relief,
from a court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California (to which all parties
hereto consent to venue and jurisdiction) by instituting a legal action or other court proceeding
in order to protect or enforce the rights of such party under this Agreement or to prevent
irreparable harm and injury. The court’s jurisdiction over any such equitable matter, however,
shall be expressly limited only to the temporary, preliminary, or permanent equitable relief
sought; all other claims initiated under this Agreement between the parties hereto shall be
determined through final and binding arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.15.

JV AGREEMENT TERMS
Each JV Agreement shall provide as follows (and all capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth or cross-referenced to other agreements in the
Amended and Restated Pipeline Property Agreement (For MOB Development, Management and ROFOs) to
which this Exhibit “F” is attached (the “Agreement”)):
• | The NHP Member and the PMB Member shall form a JV Entity (or, if permitted by the facts and circumstances surrounding such a contribution and mutually agreed upon by the parties, by the admission of NHP to an existing entity which is then wholly-owned by the PMB Member and which will thereafter become such JV Entity in which case, the operating agreement for such existing entity shall be amended and restated into a JV Agreement). | ||
• | The sole members of such JV Entity shall be the NHP Member and the PMB Member. | ||
• | The PMB Member will be solely responsible for the development of the applicable Approved Property and will be the day-to-day manager of the JV Entity, subject to the NHP Member’s consent for “major decisions” (which shall be defined consistent with the definition of “Major Decisions” set forth in the limited liability company agreement among NHP, PMB and/or their affiliates relating to the property referenced in the Master Contribution Agreement as being leased by PMB Xxxxxxx LLC (the “Xxxxxxx XX Agreements”)). | ||
• | The JV Agreement will not contain a so-called buy-sell procedure, including by reason of a “major decision” deadlock. The JV Agreement will, however, provide an alternative dispute resolution process for resolving disputes between the members (including those relating to “major decision” deadlocks) substantially similar to the terms of Section 9.15 of the Agreement. | ||
• | The NHP Member will be solely responsible for all aspects of the required financing of the development of the applicable Approved Property, including providing the applicable third party financing source(s) for such Approved Property such as: |
– | Any and all equity required (as capital contributions to the JV Entity) (provided that, at the option of the PMB Member, the PMB Member may contribute any required equity up to a maximum of 49% thereof); | ||
– | Obtaining all third-party construction financing, including the amount thereof and all costs associated therewith; | ||
– | Any and all guarantees (including payment and completion) required in connection with any third-party construction financing; and |
F-1
– | If required in lieu of a guarantee (but not in addition thereto), any and all take-out commitments required. |
• | The NHP Member will be solely responsible for providing any completion or similar guarantees required by any ground lessor in connection with the leasing and development of the Approved Property. | ||
• | The PMB Member will cross-guarantee to the NHP Member and the JV Entity all costs incurred by the NHP Member or the JV Entity in order to engage a third party construction manager/developer (as selected by NHP in its sole discretion), if, at anytime, the PMB Member shall refuse to perform or otherwise abandon or relinquish its responsibilities to manage and oversee the development of the applicable Approved Property for any reason other than as a result of (i) a breach by the NHP Member of its obligations under the JV Agreement or (ii) the lack or unavailability of equity and/or Financing to pay the Total Project Costs for such Approved Property (provided that such lack or unavailability of equity is not a result of the PMB Member’s breach of any obligation under the JV Agreement to contribute capital for any “Cost Overrun,” as defined below). Such cross-guarantee obligations of the PMB Member shall be secured by a pledge of the PMB Member’s entire interest in the JV Entity in favor of the NHP Member. | ||
• | In exchange for its participation in the development of such Approved Property, the NHP Member will receive: |
– | a membership interest in the JV Entity; | ||
– | a 10% preferred return, calculated on a simple (i.e., not compounded) basis, on any cash equity provided by the NHP Member (the “Preferred Return”), understanding that the PMB Member shall also receive such a Preferred Return to the extent of any equity contributed by the PMB Member (and equity for each of the NHP Member and the PMB Member shall include, without limitation, any required equity contributed if the actual Total Project Costs for any Approved Property exceed the Approved Budgeted Costs for such Approved Property as provided below); | ||
– | a share (as determined by the waterfall below) of the remaining cash flow or profit from any capital event; and | ||
– | if the NHP Member’s take-out commitment is required in lieu of a guarantee (but not in addition thereto), a special preferred return calculated annually to be an amount equal to 150 basis points (based on the take-out loan commitment amount) from commencement of construction to the earlier of the take-out or the consummation of a Contribution Transaction (the “Special Preferred Return”). |
• | In lieu of obtaining third-party construction financing, the NHP Member or its affiliate may become the construction lender for such Approved Property, provided that the loan must reflect the then current market terms provided by third-party lenders (as such terms are reasonably approved by the PMB Member). |
F-2
• | All excess cash flow will be distributed as follows: |
– | first, to the NHP Member for the accrued and unpaid Special Preferred Return (if any); | ||
– | second, to the NHP Member and the PMB Member for the Preferred Return (pro rata based on the then accrued but unpaid Preferred Return, if any, of each Member); and | ||
– | third, the balance to be split (a) 15% to the NHP Member, (b) 37.5% to the PMB Member, and (c) 47.5% to the members of the JV Entity (pro rata based on the share of the equity contributed by such members, if any, to the JV Entity). |
• | All capital proceeds (or deemed proceeds upon consummation of a Contribution Transaction), will be distributed as follows: |
– | first, to the NHP Member for the accrued and unpaid Special Preferred Return (if any); | ||
– | second, to the NHP Member and the PMB Member for the Preferred Return (pro rata based on the then accrued but unpaid Preferred Return, if any, of each Member); | ||
– | third, (pro rata based on the share of equity contributed by such members, if any, to the JV Entity) to the NHP Member and to the PMB Member on account of unreturned capital; and | ||
– | fourth, the balance to be split (a) 15% to the NHP Member, (b) 37.5% to the PMB Member, and (c) 47.5% to the members of the JV Entity (pro rata based on the share of the equity contributed by such members, if any, to the JV Entity). |
• | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary: (a) if the actual Total Project Costs for any Approved Property exceed the Approved Budgeted Costs for such Approved Property (herein, a “Cost Overrun”), then such excess shall be the responsibility of the members of the JV Entity (pro rata based on the percentage splits to which each member would then be entitled under the fourth tier of the capital proceeds waterfall above); and (b) if the actual Total Project Costs for any Approved Property are less than the Approved Budgeted Costs for such Approved Property, then upon any capital event (or funding of such savings by the construction lender for such Property) in which such savings would be realized, the members of the JV Entity shall be entitled to receive the benefit of such savings (pro rata based on the percentage splits to which each member would then be entitled under the fourth tier of the capital proceeds waterfall above). | ||
• | If, at any time after the date such Approved Property first generates sufficient cash flow to cover or fund all then current operating expenses, debt service payments and a reasonable set-aside for reserves, and prior to the date on which a Contribution |
F-3
Transaction is consummated with respect to such Approved Property, cash flow for such Approved Property together with any available reserves become insufficient to cover or fund future operating expenses, debt service payments and a reasonable set-aside for reserves (an “Operating Deficiency”), then, unless otherwise agreed by the members in their sole discretion, each of the PMB Member and the NHP Member shall be obligated to contribute capital to the JV Entity (pro rata based on the percentage splits to which each member would then be entitled under the fourth tier of the capital proceeds waterfall above) in an amount necessary to eliminate such Operating Deficiency. Provisions substantially similar to Section 3.3 of the Xxxxxxx XX Agreement will be included in the JV Agreement to address the failure of any member to make any required capital contribution as a result of any such Operating Deficiency or Cost Overrun. |
• | Such Approved Property shall not be sold to any third party prior to the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Contribution Transaction with respect thereto pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, or (ii) any termination of the Contribution Agreement prior to the consummation of such Contribution Transaction. | ||
• | The PMB Member shall have the sole and exclusive right to enforce the terms of the applicable Contribution Agreement against NHP, the OP and the NHP Member, and any damages payable thereunder by NHP, the OP and/or the NHP Member shall be payable solely to the PMB Member. | ||
• | Neither the PMB Member nor the NHP Member shall have any right to sell or otherwise transfer its respective interest in the JV Entity prior to the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Contribution Transaction with respect thereto pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, or (ii) any termination of the Contribution Agreement prior to the consummation of such Contribution Transaction. In the event of a termination of the Contribution Agreement with respect to any Approved Property as a result of a default by NHP, the OP and/or the NHP Member, the PMB Member will have the sole and exclusive right and authority to market and sell such Approved Property to a third party and the same shall not constitute a Major Decision or require the approval of the NHP Member. | ||
• | Each member of the JV Entity will agree that: (a) it will cooperate with NHP to structure its actions in a manner that would not jeopardize the status of NHP as a REIT, including utilizing REIT protections substantially similar to those contained in Section 5.10 of the Xxxxxxx XX Agreement; and (b) it will cooperate with NHP to structure the JV Entity and NHP’s debt and equity interests therein, together with any payments made to NHP or the NHP Member by the JV Entity or the PMB Member (other than, in either case, distributions made by the JV Entity in respect of NHP’s equity interest in the JV Entity), in a manner that enables NHP to satisfy the REIT requirements and enables such debt interests to qualify as real estate assets under Section 856(c)(5)(B) of the Code. | ||
• | Upon the later to occur of (a) the date by which the aggregate of Total Project Costs for all Approved Properties, with respect to which a Contribution Transaction has occurred or for which a Contribution Agreement has been executed and as to which NHP, the OP |
F-4
and the applicable NHP Member are obligated thereunder to consummate a Contribution Transaction in accordance with the terms thereof (or were obligated, but breached such obligation), equals at least One Hundred Sixty Million Dollars ($160,000,000.00) and (b) the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Effective Date, the parties hereto shall in good faith revisit the terms set forth on this Exhibit “F” with respect to the Preferred Return, the Special Preferred Return and the waterfall and, if mutually and reasonably agreed upon at such time, amend such terms to reflect then applicable market conditions, which amended terms shall only apply to any and all JV Agreements entered into thereafter. |

EXHIBIT “G”
CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT TERMS
Each Contribution Agreement (this “Agreement”) shall provide as follows (and all
capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for the
same or cross-referenced to other agreements in the Amended and Restated Pipeline Property
Agreement (For MOB Development, Management and ROFOs) to which this Exhibit “G” is attached
(the “Pipeline Agreement”)):
1.1 Parties. NHP and the OP, collectively, and jointly and severally, as
“Transferee,” the NHP Member, the PMB Member, PMB LLC, a California limited liability
company (“PMB”), and a national title company reasonably acceptable to the parties, as
“Escrow Agent.” The NHP Member and the PMB Member may sometimes be referred to herein,
collectively, as the “Members,” and individually, as a “Member.”
1.2 Contribution Transaction Structure.
(a) As used herein, the term “Property” shall mean the “Approved Property” (as defined
in the Pipeline Agreement), including the “Improvements,” the “Real Property,” the “Personal
Property,” and the “Intangible Property” relating thereto (each as defined in Section 5 of the
Master Contribution Agreement).
(b) The transaction will be either a “Property Interest Contribution” (as hereinafter defined)
or an “Investment Entity Transaction” (as hereinafter defined). A Property Interest Contribution or
an Investment Entity Transaction may sometimes be referred to herein as a “Contribution
Transaction.” The JV Entity as constituted immediately prior to the Closing of the Contribution
Transaction (i.e., as a partnership between the Members) shall sometimes be referred to herein as
the “Partnership,” and the JV Entity as constituted immediately following the Closing
(i.e., as either a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the OP in connection with a
Property Interest Contribution, or as a continuing partnership between the OP (or a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the OP) and the PMB Member (on behalf of the “Continuing Partners” (as hereinafter
defined)) in connection with an Investment Entity Transaction) shall be referred to herein as the
“Continuing Entity.”
(c) A “Property Interest Contribution” shall mean (i) in exchange for “Class A
Partnership Units” (as defined in the OP Agreement) (“Class A OP Units”), cash or a
combination thereof, the PMB Member will transfer, contribute and convey its entire membership
interest in the Partnership to the OP (or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned subsidiary
thereof), and (ii) in exchange for “Class B Partnership Units” (as defined in the OP Agreement)
(“Class B OP Units”), the NHP Member will transfer, contribute and convey its entire
membership interest in the Partnership to the OP (or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned
subsidiary thereof).
(d) An “Investment Entity Transaction” shall mean (i) certain partners and/or members
of the PMB Member will retain their interests in the PMB Member (each such partner and/or member, a
“Continuing Partner” and, collectively, the “Continuing Partners”), while other
partners and/or members of the PMB Member will transfer, contribute and convey their respective
interests in the Partnership to the OP (or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned subsidiary
thereof) in exchange for Class A OP Units, cash or a combination thereof, and (ii) the NHP Member
will transfer, contribute and convey its entire membership interest in the Partnership to the OP
(or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned subsidiary thereof) for Class B OP Units. To
accommodate an Investment Entity Transaction, subject to the other terms and conditions of this
Agreement as herein provided, the PMB
Member will (i) distribute certain membership interests (the “Distributed Partnership
Interests”) in the Partnership to each of its partners and/or members (other than the
Continuing Partners) prior to the “Closing” (as hereinafter defined) in redemption of each such
partner’s and/or member’s interest in the PMB Member (each such redeeming partner and/or member, a
“Distributed Interest Transferor Party” and, collectively, the “Distributed Interest
Transferor Parties”), and (ii) cause each such Distributed Interest Transferor Party to
transfer, contribute and convey its respective Distributed Partnership Interests to the OP (or at
the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned subsidiary thereof) in exchange for Class A OP Units,
cash or a combination thereof.
(e) In the case of a Property Interest Contribution, for income tax purposes, the parties
intend and agree that each of the transactions associated with such Property Interest Contribution
by the PMB Member will constitute an “assets-over” partnership merger within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(3)(i), and, as a result, that (i) the payment of cash in
excess of the “Cap-Ex Amount” (as hereinafter defined), if any, to any “Cash Recipient” (as
hereinafter defined) will be treated as a sale of such Cash Recipient’s interests in PMB Member and
a purchase of such interests by the OP for the cash so paid under the terms of this Agreement, and
(ii) the OP will be treated as acquiring the portion of the interests in the Partnership
attributable to such interests in PMB Member in redemption of such interest in PMB Member, in each
case, in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(4).
(f) In the case of an Investment Entity Transaction, for income tax purposes, the parties
intend and agree that the transfer of the Distributed Partnership Interests by the Distributed
Interest Transferor Parties to the OP (or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned subsidiary
thereof) constitutes (i) a contribution pursuant to Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”) to the extent of the Class A OP Units received by the “Class
A OP Unit Recipients” (as hereinafter defined), and (ii) a sale to the extent of the “Cash Amount”
(as hereinafter defined) received by the Cash Recipients.
(g) The parties agree that, for the 24-month period following the Contribution Transaction,
(i) in the case of a Property Interest Contribution, the Continuing Entity shall (A) be owned one
hundred percent (100%) by the OP, either directly or through one or more disregarded entities as
determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (B) be classified for U.S. Federal income tax
purposes as a disregarded entity and not as a partnership or association taxable as a corporation,
and (ii) in the case of an Investment Entity Transaction, the Continuing Entity shall continue to
be treated as a partnership and not as an association taxable as a corporation.
1.3 Determination of Contribution Value and Percentage Interest of the Members.
(a) The “Contribution Value” shall mean the contribution value for the Property
determined as of the “Closing Date” (as hereinafter defined) by dividing the projected “Net
Operating Income” (as hereinafter defined) for the Property by the “FMV Cap Rate” (as hereinafter
defined), subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, and subject to a deduction for the sum of
the following amounts (which shall be credits against the Contribution Value): (i) the outstanding
balance (i.e., principal, accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts otherwise then due and
payable other than those otherwise allocated hereunder) under any loans made to the Partnership
(each, a “Loan Obligation” and, collectively, the “Loan Obligations”) as of the
Closing Date; (ii) the “Property Tax Reserve Amount” (as hereinafter defined), if any, to the
extent funded by Transferee in accordance with Section 1.4(d) hereof; (iii) the “Proration Reserve
Amount” (as hereinafter defined), to the extent funded by Transferee in accordance with the terms
of Section 1.11(a)(ii) hereof; (iv) an amount equal to the “Reimbursable Closing Costs” (as
hereinafter defined); and (v) the “Credit Amount” (as hereinafter defined). Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Contribution Value shall be increased by
2
the aggregate amount of (A) all escrow accounts, reserves and similar amounts maintained by
the Partnership with or for the benefit of any lender in connection with the Loan Obligations to
the extent that such escrow accounts, reserves or similar amounts (or the rights thereto) shall be
retained by the Continuing Entity, (B) an amount necessary to account for any reimbursements
required to be paid to the Partnership pursuant to the last sentence of Section 1.5 hereof, and
(iii) any other cash funds then held by or for the benefit of the Partnership that (1) have not
been distributed to the Members in accordance with the terms of the JV Agreement, (2) have not
otherwise been prorated or adjusted as provided in this Agreement, and (3) will be retained by or
for the benefit of the Continuing Entity following the Closing.
(b) Each Member’s share of the Contribution Value shall be equal to that amount (expressed as
a percentage) determined by dividing (i) the amount that such Member would receive if the Property
were sold for cash at the Contribution Value and the gross proceeds thereof were distributed to the
Members in connection with a capital event in accordance with the terms of the JV Agreement, by
(ii) the Contribution Value (with respect to each Member, the “Percentage Interest”), and
the amount that each Member shall receive on account of the Contribution Value shall be equal to
its respective Percentage Interest multiplied by the Contribution Value (with respect to each
Member, the “Contribution Value Amount”). To the extent, however, that PMB and/or the PMB
Member has delivered the “Legal Fees and Costs Notice” (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with
Section 1.19(b) hereof, then the “Reimbursable Legal Fees and Costs Amount” (as hereinafter
defined) shall be deducted from the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount at the Closing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall either Member’s
Contribution Value Amount be less than zero (-0).
(c) The “FMV Cap Rate” shall mean the fair market value cap rate for properties
substantially similar to the Property that (x) have at least the “Elected Percentage” (as
hereinafter defined) of their respective rentable square footage leased, pursuant to leases with
weighted average initial term lengths of not less than five (5) years, (y) are located in the same
or substantially similar geographic market as the Property, and (z) are substantially similarly
situated as the Property (i.e., location to a hospital or other applicable characteristics), in
each case determined as of the date on which the applicable “Closing Notice” (as hereinafter
defined) is delivered, and in accordance with this definition. PMB and the PMB Member shall
include in the applicable Closing Notice, their good faith determination of the FMV Cap Rate for
the Property, together with reasonable back-up documentation for such calculation, and the
following shall apply:
(i) Transferee shall have ten (10) Business Days upon receipt of the applicable
Closing Notice to deliver to PMB and the PMB Member written notice of its objection
to the proposed FMV Cap Rate, which notice shall also specify in reasonable detail
Transferee’s basis therefore;
(ii) if Transferee timely objects to the determination of the FMV Cap Rate by
PMB and the PMB Member, then the parties shall meet and confer in person or
telephonically in good faith for a period of ten (10) Business Days following
receipt by PMB and the PMB Member of such notice to attempt to mutually agree upon
the FMV Cap Rate;
(iii) if Transferee fails to deliver written notice of its objection to the
proposed FMV Cap Rate to PMB and the PMB Member as provided above, then Transferee
shall be deemed to have agreed that the FMV Cap Rate shall be as proposed by PMB and
the PMB Member in the applicable Closing Notice; and
(iv) if the parties are not able to agree timely on the FMV Cap Rate, then such
dispute shall be resolved as follows:
3
(1) each of PMB and the PMB Member, on the one hand, and
Transferee, on the other hand, shall select a MAI designated
appraiser with at least ten (10) years of experience in appraising
MOBs in the geographic region in which the Property is located (a
“Qualified Appraiser”) and shall give notice to the other
specifying the name and address of the Qualified Appraiser each has
chosen;
(2) the two Qualified Appraisers so chosen shall, within ten
(10) days after the second Qualified Appraiser is appointed,
determine the FMV Cap Rate for the Property in accordance with the
terms hereof;
(3) if the two valuations produced are within ten percent (10%)
of each other, then the average of the two (2) FMV Cap Rates shall
be deemed to be the FMV Cap Rate for the Property, but if the two
(2) FMV Cap Rates produced are not within ten percent (10%) of each
other, the two (2) Qualified Appraisers shall together designate a
third (3rd) Qualified Appraiser;
(4) if applicable, the FMV Cap Rate of the third
(3rd) Qualified Appraiser shall be compared to the FMV
Cap Rates of the first (1st) Qualified Appraisers, and
the two (2) valuations that are nearest to each other shall be
averaged, and the average of such two (2) FMV Cap Rates shall be
deemed to be the FMV Cap Rate for the Property;
(5) each of PMB and the PMB Member, on the one hand, and
Transferee, on the other hand, shall pay the fees and expenses of
the Qualified Appraiser it has selected, and if applicable, one half
(1/2) of the fees and expenses of the third (3rd)
Qualified Appraiser; and
(6) the decision and award of the Qualified Appraisers shall be
in writing and shall be final, conclusive and enforceable in any
court of competent jurisdiction.
(d) The “Net Operating Income” shall mean, the amount by which (i) the revenues
projected to be received from the operation and/or leasing of the Property or any portion thereof
(excluding proceeds from any capital event) for the twelve (12) full calendar month period
following the calendar month in which the applicable Closing Notice is delivered (the
“Post-Closing Period”) (based on executed “Leases” (as hereinafter defined) with “Tenants”
(as hereinafter defined) not in default and with respect to which no action or proceeding shall
have been commenced under the federal bankruptcy code or any state law for the relief of debtors or
for the enforcement of the rights of creditors and no attachment, execution, lien or levy shall
have attached to or been issued with respect to such Tenant’s interest in the Property or any
portion thereof) exceeds (ii) the operating expenses, forecasted real estate taxes and ground rent
projected to be paid or incurred with respect to the Property that would be paid for such
Post-Closing Period; provided, however, that the term “Net Operating Income” shall be net
of (A) a deduction for a general operating reserve equal to Twenty Cents ($0.20) per rentable
square foot of medical office building space for the Property, and (B) an allowance for bad debt
expenses, which shall be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States (consistently applied) and based on actual prior experience; and provided
further, however, that the term “Net Operating Income” shall take into account all revenues
earned with respect to parking operations at the Property (“Parking Revenues”), which shall
be valued for the Post-Closing Period based upon the
4
Parking Revenues actually collected for the three (3) month period ending on the date the
applicable Closing Notice is delivered net of any un-reimbursed expenses and maintenance reserves
(to the extent not passed through to Tenants). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that
PMB and/or the PMB Member demonstrate to Transferee’s reasonable satisfaction that the Parking
Revenues for the Property are subject to seasonality or planned rate increases, then such
seasonality or planned rate increases shall be considered for purposes of projecting such Parking
Revenues for the Post-Closing Period.
1.4 Consideration. The Contribution Value shall be payable at the Closing (except as
otherwise described herein) as follows:

all of the members of the PMB Member, (C) indicate PMB’s good faith estimate of the
percentage of the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount that is allocable to each such PMB

“Estimated PMB Transferor Party Allocable Share”) and (D) with respect to each
Estimated PMB Transferor Party Allocable Share, identify (1) the percentage to be payable in
cash (a “Cash Portion” and, aggregated together with all of the other Cash Portions,
the “Cash Amount”) and the percentage to be treated as the Cap-Ex Amount, and (2)
the percentage to be payable in Class A OP Units (collectively with respect to all PMB
Transferor Parties, the “Class A OP Unit Portion”).
(ii) If the PMB Member elects to engage in an Investment Entity Transaction (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.4), the Closing
Notice shall (A) identify the names of the parties that are or, at the Closing, will be
members or partners of the PMB Member or their respective designees and which of the same

include a representation from PMB and the PMB Member that the identified Continuing Partners
and Distributed Interest Transferor Parties are all of the members of the PMB Member, (C)
indicate PMB’s good faith estimate of the percentage of the PMB Member’s Contribution Value
Amount that is allocable to each such Distributed Interest Transferor Party based upon a
good faith estimate of the Contribution Value (which percentage shall, with respect to each
Distributed Interest Transferor Party be hereinafter referred to as an “Estimated
Distributed Interest Transferor Party Allocable Share”) and PMB’s good faith estimate of
the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount that will not be paid, but which will be
attributed to the interests retained by the Continuing Partners in the Continuing Entity
(through their retained interest in the PMB Member) based upon a good faith estimate of the
Contribution Value (which percentage shall, with respect to the Continuing Partners be
hereinafter referred to as the “Estimated Continuing Partners Allocable Share”) and
shall also be the percentage ownership that such Continuing Partners shall own in the
Continuing Entity (through their retained interest in the PMB Member) following the Closing,
and (D) with respect to each such Estimated Distributed Interest Transferor Party Allocable
Share, identify (1)
the percentage constituting the Cash Portion, and (2) the percentage constituting the
Class A OP Unit Portion. An Estimated PMB Transferor Party Allocable Share, Estimated
Distributed
5
Interest Transferor Party Allocable Share and/or Estimated Continuing Partners
Allocable Share shall sometimes be referred with respect to any such party(ies) as an
“Estimated Allocable Share.”
(iii) Prior to the Closing, PMB and/or the PMB Member shall update the Estimated
Allocable Share for each PMB Transferor Party or for each Distributed Interest Transferor
Party and Continuing Partners, as applicable, and cause to be included as part of the
“Closing Statement” (as hereinafter defined), (A) the actual percentage of the PMB Member’s
Contribution Value Amount that is allocable to each such PMB Transferor Party or Distributed
Interest Transferor Party and Continuing Partner, as applicable, based upon the actual
Contribution Value (which percentage shall, with respect to each PMB Transferor Party or
Distributed Interest Transferor Party and Continuing Partner, be hereinafter referred to as
the “Allocable Share”), (B) the actual Cash Portion for each PMB Transferor Party or
Distributed Interest Transferor Party, as applicable, and (C) the actual Cash Amount, the
percentage to be treated as the Cap-Ex Amount, if any, and the actual Class A OP Unit
Portion.
(iv) A PMB Transferor Party or a Distributed Interest Transferor Party may sometimes be
referred to herein as a “Transferor Party” and, collectively, as the “Transferor
Parties.” Each entity which, or person who, is identified in the applicable Closing
Notice as a party who is to receive (A) Class A OP Units shall hereinafter be referred to as
a “Class A OP Unit Recipient” and collectively such parties shall hereinafter be
referred to as the “Class A OP Unit Recipients” and (B) all or a portion of the Cash
Amount shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Cash Recipient” and collectively such
parties shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Cash Recipients.”
(b) Delivery of OP Units and Cash.
(i) At the Closing of the Contribution Transaction, Transferee shall (A) issue to each
of the Class A OP Unit Recipients, if any, Class A OP Units equal in value (as determined in
accordance with this Section 1.4(b)) to the Class A OP Unit Portion attributable to the
Allocable Share of such Class A OP Unit Recipient, as identified in the Closing Statement,
(B) pay to each of the Cash Recipients, if any, the Cash Portion attributable to the
Allocable Share of such Cash Recipient in cash by wire transfer of federal funds, as
identified in the Closing Statement, and (C) issue to the NHP Member Class B OP Units equal
in value (as determined in accordance with this Section 1.4(b)) to the NHP Member’s
Contribution Value Amount. The number of Class A OP Units that the Class A OP Unit
Recipients shall receive on account of the Class A OP Unit Portion of the Contribution Value
and the number of Class B OP Units that the NHP Member shall receive on account of the NHP
Member’s Contribution Value Amount shall be determined as of the Closing Date by dividing,
(1) with respect to the Class A OP Unit Recipients, the Class A OP Unit Portion, and (2)
with respect to the NHP Member, the NHP Member’s Contribution Value Amount, in each case by
the average closing price per share of Common Stock of NHP (the “Common Stock”) for
the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending on the fifth (5th) trading day
prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that in calculating such average, each closing
price shall be multiplied by the “Adjustment Factor” (as defined in the OP Agreement) then
in effect for each applicable closing price date; provided further, however, that the OP
shall not issue any fractional Class A OP Units or Class B OP Units, and the number of Class
A OP Units and Class B OP Units to be issued to each Class A OP Unit Recipient and the NHP
Member, respectively, pursuant to the foregoing calculation shall be rounded to the nearest
whole number to the extent required to avoid such a result.
6
(ii) To the extent that any adjustments to the Contribution Value pursuant to this
Agreement result in any amounts owing to an applicable Transferor Party after the Closing
Date, PMB shall notify Transferee of the percentage of the post-Closing adjustment amount
that is allocable to each such Transferor Party (which percentage shall, with respect to
each Transferor Party be hereinafter referred to as a “Post-Closing Allocable
Share”) prior to any such amounts becoming due. Any post-Closing adjustments owing to
an applicable Transferor Party shall be paid by Transferee promptly following receipt of
PMB’s notice of each such Transferor Party’s Post-Closing Allocable Share.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (A) if Transferee
reasonably determines that any person or entity identified in the applicable Closing Notice
as a proposed Transferor Party is not an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in Rule
501 of the General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Act”)), then Transferee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
deliver cash, in lieu of Class A OP Units, to such person or entity; (B) if and to the
extent that the rules of the New York Stock Exchange would require approval of the
shareholders of NHP prior to such issuance of Class A OP Units to Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxx and his
affiliates and related entities (collectively, the “Rush Related Parties”), then the
Rush Related Parties shall only qualify as Class A OP Unit Recipients and may only elect to
receive that number of Class A OP Units, if any, up to an amount that would not so require
the approval of the shareholders of NHP, and the balance, including all, if applicable, of
the Allocable Share(s) of the Contribution Value to which the Rush Related Parties are
entitled must be received in cash; and (C) each then member/principal of PMB that is a
Transferor Party (herein, a “PMB Principal Transferor”) shall be required to elect
not less than five percent (5%) of his/her respective Allocable Share of the PMB Member’s
Contribution Value Amount in the form of Class A OP Units, and all such Class A OP Units
issued to each PMB Principal Transferor (up to such minimum election amount) (the
“Restricted Class A OP Units”) shall be issued to such PMB Principal Transferor with
a restriction prohibiting a “Redemption” (as defined in the OP Agreement) of such Class A OP
Units until the expiration or earlier termination of the “Term” (as defined in the Pipeline
Agreement) of the Pipeline Agreement, unless otherwise consented to by the OP in its sole
discretion. In connection with the foregoing, the “Certificates” (as hereinafter defined)
to be issued to each PMB Principal Transferor by the OP with respect to the Restricted Class
A OP Units may, at the option of the OP, contain a legend providing for such restriction on
Redemption for such period.
(c) Contribution of Distributed Partnership Interests. To the extent that the
“Investment Entity Requirements” (as hereinafter defined) are satisfied, then the PMB Member may
elect to engage in an Investment Entity Transaction by notifying Transferee of such election in
accordance with the terms of Section 1.4(a) hereof and by complying with each of the following
requirements: (i) immediately prior to the Closing, distributing the Distributed Partnership
Interests to the applicable Distributed Interest Transferor Parties in proportion to their
respective interests in the PMB Member and in redemption of each such Distributed Interest
Transferor Parties’ interest in the PMB Member (so that after the distribution, the applicable
Distributed Interest Transferor Parties shall directly hold membership interests in the Partnership
in proportion to their respective Allocable Share of the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount and
the Continuing Partners continue to hold directly their membership interests in the PMB Member and
indirectly their interests in the Continuing Entity in proportion to their applicable Allocable
Share of the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount); and (ii) at the Closing, causing each
Distributed Interest Transferor Party to transfer, contribute and convey all of its respective
Distributed Partnership Interests to the OP (or at the direction of the OP, to a wholly-owned
subsidiary thereof) by delivering a fully executed “Assignment of Membership Interests” (as
hereinafter defined) in exchange for Class A OP Units, cash or a combination thereof, as specified
in the Closing Statement (subject to the requirements of Section 1.4(b) hereof and this Section
1.4(c)). As used herein, the term
7
“Investment Entity Requirements” shall mean that each of the following conditions have
been satisfied prior to the Closing: (1) the PMB Member shall have provided each holder of
interests in the PMB Member other than such holders as are affiliates of the PMB Member
(collectively, the non-affiliate holders of interests in the PMB Member being hereinafter referred
to as the “Outside Investors”) with the option to elect to receive Class A OP Units, cash
or a combination thereof in consideration of its interests in the PMB Member; (2) Outside Investors
holding interests which entitle them to an aggregate Allocable Share of the PMB Member’s
Contribution Value Amount totaling at least ten percent (10%) (unless a smaller percentage is
otherwise approved by NHP in its sole and absolute discretion , including as part of the “Final
Information Package” (as defined in the Pipeline Agreement)) shall elect not to receive cash or
Class A OP Units as consideration for their interests (and thus elect to remain Continuing
Partners); (3) after giving effect to the transactions contemplated to occur at the Closing, the
PMB Member (on behalf of the Continuing Partners) may continue to own no more than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the membership interests of the Continuing Entity (unless a larger percentage is
otherwise approved by NHP in its sole and absolute discretion , including as part of the Final
Information Package); and (4) PMB (or another entity reasonably acceptable to NHP) shall remain the
managing member or manager of the PMB Member with the sole authority to control and make day-to-day
decisions for the PMB Member, subject to the non-managing members’ consent rights with respect to
major decisions consistent with the terms of the then existing operating agreement governing the
PMB Member, and that such provisions shall not be amended without the prior written consent of NHP
for so long as the PMB Member (on behalf of the Continuing Partners) continues to hold any interest
in the Continuing Entity (and NHP shall have the opportunity to review such operating agreement to
insure that it complies with the foregoing requirement), and as between the PMB Member and the OP,
the PMB Member shall be solely responsible for all costs of maintaining and administering itself,
which covenants and agreements shall survive the Closing.
(d) Real Property Tax Reserves. If requested by PMB and/or the PMB Member, at their
option, the parties agree that increases in the real property taxes for the Property directly
attributable to the Contribution Transaction (the “Prop 13 Tax Increases”) will not be
immediately passed through to (and payable or reimbursable by) the “Non-Protected Tenants” (as
hereinafter defined) for the tax year during which such Prop 13 Tax Increases are imposed, but
rather that such Prop 13 Tax Increases may be phased in over a period of time (not to exceed three
(3) years), as may be set forth in a schedule to the applicable Closing Notice delivered by PMB and
the PMB Member. Accordingly, upon the Closing, Transferee shall cause a reserve account to be
established and held by the OP, which shall be funded with cash in an amount that is sufficient to
cover the difference between the amount of such estimated Prop 13 Tax Increases that will be passed
through to the Non-Protected Tenants for the relevant period and the estimated total amount of such
Prop 13 Tax Increases for the relevant period set forth in the schedule to the applicable Closing
Notice. Such reserve shall be funded at the Closing by Transferee, and the amount so funded by
Transferee (the “Property Tax Reserve Amount”) will reduce (and be treated as a credit
against) the Contribution Value in accordance with Section 1.3(a) hereof. The cash in such
reserves shall be disbursed by the OP to the Continuing Entity from time to time to pay that
portion of such Prop 13 Tax Increases that are then due and payable, which the parties have agreed
will not be passed through (i.e., billed) to the Non-Protected Tenants during the applicable
period; provided, however, that in no event shall the OP disburse nor shall the Continuing Entity
be entitled to receive any amounts from such reserves to the extent that the parties reasonably
agree subsequent to the Closing to pass (i.e., xxxx) such Prop 13 Tax Increases onto the
Non-Protected Tenants, but any such Non-Protected Tenant elects not or refuses to pay the same. To
the extent that the actual Prop 13 Tax Increases attributable to the Property for which reserves
are held by the OP pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.4(d) exceed the estimates set forth in
the schedule to the applicable Closing Notice, the OP may cause the Continuing Entity to pass
(i.e., xxxx) such excess onto the applicable Non-Protected Tenants. To the extent that any cash
remains in such reserves after the Prop 13 Tax Increases have been passed through (i.e., billed) to
the Non-Protected Tenants for payment or reimbursement, Transferee shall cause the OP to deliver
such remaining funds to
8
the NHP Member and to PMB for distribution to the applicable Transferor Parties in proportion
to the NHP Member’s and the PMB Member’s respective Percentage Interest. As used herein,
“Non-Protected Tenants” shall mean tenants or other occupants (each, a “Tenant”
and, collectively, the “Tenants”), under leases, licenses, tenancies or other occupancy
agreements (whether written or oral) (each, a “Lease” and, collectively, the
“Leases”) for all or any portion of the Property that are obligated to reimburse the
landlord for a portion of the real estate taxes attributable to the Property, including Prop 13 Tax
Increases (and shall include any Tenant that, under the terms of its Lease, is obligated to pay a
portion of any Prop 13 Tax Increases to the extent of such obligation), but specifically excludes
any Tenant that, under the terms of its Lease, is either (i) not obligated to pay any portion of
such real estate taxes, including any Prop 13 Tax Increases or (ii) obligated to pay a portion of
such real estate taxes, but such obligation is limited so as not to include all or any portion of
such Prop 13 Tax Increases.
(e) Cash Elections. In connection with any Property Interest Contribution, at the
request of the PMB Transferor Parties, the OP shall cooperate with each PMB Transferor Party in
good faith to treat all or a portion of the Cash Amount, as requested by the PMB Transferor
Parties, as a reimbursement of preformation expenditures pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section
1.707-4(d) (the “Cap-Ex Amount”).
(f) Tax Reporting.
(i) The parties hereto intend and agree that to the extent any Class A OP Units are
received by Class A OP Unit Recipients with respect to a Property Interest Contribution: (A)
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the payment of cash to the Cash Recipients in such
Property Interest Contribution in excess of their allocable share of the Cap-Ex Amount (the
“Excess Cash Amount”) shall be treated as a sale of the interests in PMB Member held
by such Cash Recipients and a purchase of such interests by the OP for the cash so paid
under the terms hereof in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(4); and
(B) pursuant to such Treasury Regulation and for income tax purposes, PMB Member will be
treated as (1) distributing the portion of the interests in the Partnership attributable to
the Excess Cash Amount to the OP in liquidation of the interests in the PMB Member acquired
by the OP in exchange for the Excess Cash Amount, and (2) contributing the remaining portion
of the interests in the Partnership to the OP in exchange for the Cap-Ex Amount and the
Class A OP Unit Portion pursuant to Section 721 of the Code in a transaction in which no
gain or loss is recognized and, immediately thereafter, distributing the Class A OP Unit
Portion to the Class A OP Unit Recipients in liquidation. PMB and the PMB Member will use
their commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the Cash Recipients to agree to the
tax treatment described in the foregoing sentence at or prior to the Closing of the
Contribution Transaction. The OP shall file its tax returns consistent with the
above-described transaction structure, including the treatment of the Cap-Ex Amount as a
reimbursement of the preformation expenditures pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section
1.707-4(d), to the extent the Cash Recipients agree as provided above.
(ii) The parties hereto intend and agree that to the extent the PMB Member, if
applicable, only receives the Cash Amount in consideration for a Property Interest
Contribution and no Class A OP Units are issued in connection with such Property Interest
Contribution, such Property Interest Contribution shall be treated as a sale for U.S.
federal income tax purposes. The parties hereto shall file their tax returns consistently
with this Section 1.4(f)(ii).
(iii) The parties hereto intend and agree that for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
(A) any payment of cash to the Cash Recipients in an Investment Entity Transaction shall be
treated as a sale of the Distributed Partnership Interests held by such Cash Recipients and
a purchase of such interests by the OP for the cash so paid under the terms hereof, and (B)
the
9
contribution of the Distributed Partnership Interests to the OP by the Distributed
Interest Transferor Parties in exchange for the Class A OP Unit Portion shall be treated as
a contribution pursuant to Section 721 of the Code. The parties hereto shall file their tax
returns consistently with this Section 1.4(f)(iii).
1.5 Adjustment for Prorations and Closing Costs. On the Closing Date, Transferee
shall receive as a credit against the Contribution Value an amount (the “Credit Amount”)
equal to the sum of: (a) all unapplied cash security deposits which were paid by the Tenants under
the Leases to or for the account of the Partnership and that are refundable to such Tenants, plus
accrued interest, if and to the extent required to be paid to such Tenants on such unapplied cash
security deposits, unless the Continuing Entity retains cash following the Closing equal to all
such unapplied security deposits, plus any accrued interest thereon, if applicable; (b) expenses
and other sums owed by or required to be funded by the Partnership to any Tenant for any tenant
improvement work related to the Property which occurred and/or were due and payable prior to the
date the applicable Closing Notice is delivered; (c) rentals already received for the Property by
the Partnership attributable to the period from and after the Closing Date to the extent funds on
account thereof are not retained by the Continuing Entity at the Closing; (d) any rent concessions
which accrue to any Tenants of the Property after the Closing Date; and (e) the amount, if any, by
which prorated amounts allocated to the Partnership pursuant to Section 1.11 hereof exceed prorated
amounts allocated to the Continuing Entity pursuant to Section 1.11 hereof. In addition,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, on the Closing Date, Transferee shall be
obligated to reimburse the Partnership (as a credit towards the Contribution Value) at Closing for
any expenses or other sums (other than any legal fees or attorneys’ costs) actually funded or
incurred following the date that the applicable Closing Notice is delivered for any tenant
improvement work or leasing costs related to the Property to the extent such amounts were actually
paid by the Partnership and not taken into account in calculating the agreed upon Net Operating
Income for the Property; provided, however, that if such amounts are not yet due and payable as of
the Closing Date, then upon such Closing Date, the Continuing Entity shall remain responsible for
all obligations therefor and shall pay all such amounts when due.
1.6 Loan Obligations. The Continuing Entity shall continue to remain obligated for,
or Transferee shall cause the Continuing Entity immediately following the Closing to fully prepay,
the Loan Obligations on the Closing Date, in each case subject to the other terms and conditions of
the other “Transaction Documents” (as hereinafter defined). Transferee shall or cause the
Continuing Entity to pay all fees, charges and related costs in connection with the assumption (or
deemed assumption) or refinance of the Loan Obligations (including, without limitation, any
prepayment or assumption fees) (collectively, the “Assumption Costs”), which fees, charges
and costs (other than the outstanding balance (i.e., principal and accrued and unpaid interest))
shall not be credited against the Contribution Value. As used herein, the term “Transaction
Documents” means, collectively, this Agreement, the Pipeline Agreement, the OP Agreement, the
“Tax Protection Agreement” (as defined in the OP Agreement), the “Registration Rights Agreement”
(as defined in the OP Agreement), the “Joinder Agreement” (as hereinafter defined), the “Property
Management Agreement” (as hereinafter defined), each Assignment of Membership Interests and any
other documents, certificates or instruments executed by any of the parties to the Contribution
Transaction.
1.7 Opening of Escrow. On or before the third (3rd) Business Day after the
execution of this Agreement, the parties shall cause an escrow (“Escrow”) to be opened with
Escrow Agent by delivery to Escrow Agent of a fully executed copy of this Agreement. This
Agreement shall constitute escrow instructions to Escrow Agent as well as the agreement of the
parties. Escrow Agent is hereby appointed and designated to act as Escrow Agent and instructed to
deliver, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the documents and funds to be deposited into
Escrow as herein provided. The parties shall execute such additional escrow instructions (not
inconsistent with this Agreement as determined by
the respective
10
counsel for the parties) as Escrow Agent shall deem reasonably necessary for
its protection, including Escrow Agent’s general provisions (as may be modified by the parties and
Escrow Agent). In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and such
additional escrow instructions, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.
1.8 Closing Notice. On the earlier to occur of (a) (i) the date on which ninety-five
percent (95%) of the rentable square footage of the Property is leased pursuant to Leases (A)
having a weighted average initial term length of five (5) years or more and (B) otherwise on terms
that are consistent with PMB’s past leasing practices, or (ii) at the option of PMB and/or the PMB
Member, if later than the foregoing date, the date that is the thirteenth (13th) month
anniversary of the date on which the Property was first placed in service (in a condition or state
of readiness and availability for its intended use), and (b) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the
date of this Agreement, PMB and the PMB Member shall, and Transferee shall be entitled to demand
that PMB and the PMB Member, deliver a notice (the “Closing Notice”) to Transferee that
shall specify that such notice is the Closing Notice for purposes of this Agreement; provided,
however, that PMB and the PMB Member shall have the right (but not the obligation) to elect to
deliver the Closing Notice at any time on or after the date on which ninety percent (90%) of the
rentable square footage of the Property is leased pursuant to Leases (x) having a weighted average
initial term length of five (5) years or more and (y) otherwise on terms that are consistent with
PMB’s past leasing practices (the percentage between 90% and 95% at which the Closing Notice is
actually delivered being referred to herein as the “Elected Percentage”). The Closing
Notice shall include: (1) PMB and the PMB Member’s good faith determination of the FMV Cap Rate for
the Property, together with reasonable back-up documentation for such calculation, as provided in
Section 1.3(c) hereof; (2) an estimated calculation of the Net Operating Income for the Property
pursuant to Section 1.3(d) hereof, together with reasonable back-up documentation for such
calculation; (3) whether the PMB Member is electing to engage in a Property Interest Contribution
or an Investment Entity Transaction pursuant to Section 1.4(a) hereof, together with all other
information required to be delivered in the Closing Notice pursuant to Section 1.4(a) hereof; and
(4) any request of PMB and/or the PMB Member to phase in Prop 13 Tax Increases for the Property
pursuant to Section 1.4(d) hereof, including information related thereto with respect to the
Property substantially similar to the type of information contained on Exhibit “D” to the
Master Contribution Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, at
any time after the delivery of the Closing Notice and prior to the Closing, the parties agree, or
it is otherwise determined pursuant to Section 1.3(c) hereof, that the FMV Cap Rate is less than
the “Development Yield” (as hereinafter defined), then PMB and the PMB Member shall have a one-time
right, but not the obligation, upon written notice (the “Rescission Notice”) to Transferee
to withdraw and rescind the Closing Notice, irrespective of whether the events set forth in any of
clauses (a) or (b) above have occurred. If PMB and the PMB Member shall be entitled to and shall
deliver a Rescission Notice as herein provided, then the prior Closing Notice shall have no further
force or effect for any purpose under this Agreement, and at any time within twelve (12) months
after the date of such Rescission Notice, PMB and the PMB Member shall be entitled to deliver, and
shall be obligated to deliver no later than the expiration of such twelve (12) month period (and
Transferee shall have the right to demand that such delivery be made no later than the expiration
of such twelve (12) month period), a new Closing Notice containing the information specified in
clauses (1) through (4) above as of the date of such new Closing Notice. In such event, such new
Closing Notice shall be deemed the “Closing Notice” for all purposes of this Agreement. As used
herein, “Development Yield” shall mean the percentage determined by dividing (x) the
projected first year stabilized Net Operating Income for the Property as set forth in the Final
Information Package, by (y) the “Approved Budgeted Costs” (as defined in the Pipeline Agreement)
for the Property as set forth in the Final Information Package.
11
1.9 Conditions to Closing.
(a) Transferee’s Closing Conditions. The obligation of Transferee to complete the
Contribution Transaction shall be subject to the following conditions precedent (and conditions

applicable to the Closing (the “Transferee’s Closing Conditions”), which conditions may be
waived, or the time for satisfaction thereof extended, by Transferee only in a writing executed by
Transferee (provided, however, that any such waiver shall not affect Transferee’s ability to pursue
any remedy it may have against PMB or the PMB Member with respect to any breach of this Agreement
by PMB or the PMB Member; provided, further, however, that in no event shall Transferee have any
rights or remedies against PMB or the PMB Member as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the
NHP Member):

(the “Required Interest Holder Consents”)) and copies thereof shall be delivered to
Transferee
12
(understanding that Transferee shall reasonably cooperate with PMB and the PMB Member
in obtaining such Required Interest Holder Consents).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the performance of the NHP
Member of its respective duties, covenants and obligations under this Agreement, and/or the
accuracy of its representations and warranties under this Agreement, shall not be a condition to
Transferee’s obligations to complete the Contribution Transaction.
(b) Failure of Transferee’s Closing Conditions. Subject to Transferee’s rights with
respect to any default by PMB or the PMB Member, if any of the Transferee’s Closing Conditions have
not been fulfilled within the applicable time periods, Transferee may:
(i) waive the Transferee’s Closing Condition and close Escrow in accordance with this
Agreement, without adjustment or abatement of the Contribution Value; or
(ii) terminate this Agreement by written notice to PMB, the PMB Member and Escrow

the PMB Member shall cause (A) each Transferor Party receiving solely Class A OP Units to

the percentage of such Transferor Party’s Allocable Share of the Secured Amount to be
delivered by such Transferor Party in the form of Class A OP Units (the “Class A OP Unit

notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, (1) the Indemnity
Pledge Agreements and/or the Indemnity Cash Escrow Agreements required to be delivered by
the applicable Transferor Parties pursuant to this Section 1.10(c)(vii), may instead be
delivered jointly by such applicable Transferor Parties as a single Indemnity Pledge
Agreement and/or Indemnity Cash Escrow Agreements, as applicable, and in such event, the
agreed upon forms thereof may be revised to reflect such multiple parties, each of which
shall be severally liable, as shall be reasonably agreed upon by the parties, and (2) the
applicable Transferor Parties shall not pledge any fractional OP Units, and the number of OP
Units to be pledged pursuant to the foregoing calculation shall be rounded to the nearest
whole number to the extent required to avoid such a result.
(viii) Other. Such other documents and instruments (including, without
limitation, affidavits and any declaration of value forms or other documents customarily
required or in accordance with applicable Laws), signed and properly acknowledged by the PMB
Member, if appropriate, as may be reasonably and customarily required by Transferee or the
Escrow Agent, or otherwise in order to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement and the
Closing. As used herein, the term “Laws” shall mean all applicable laws, rules and
regulations, ordinances and orders of all applicable federal, state, city and other
governmental authorities in effect as of the date of execution of this Agreement
(collectively, including without limitation, (A) the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42
U.S.C. § 12102, et seq., together with all rules, regulations and official interpretations

the NHP Member’s entire membership interest in the Partnership, and withdrawing as a member
of the Continuing Entity effective as of the Closing.
(iii) Proof of Authority. Such proof of the NHP Member’s authority and
authorization to enter into this Agreement and the Contribution Transaction, and such proof
of the power and authority of the individual(s) executing or delivering any instruments,
documents or certificates on behalf of the NHP Member to act for and bind the NHP Member as
may be reasonably required by PMB and the PMB Member;
(iv) Other. Such other documents and instruments (including, without
limitation, affidavits and any declaration of value forms or other documents customarily

(h) Actions by Escrow Agent. The provisions of Section 7.4 of the Master Contribution

1.11 Prorations.
(a) Adjustments.
(i) General. Rentals (including common area maintenance charges), revenues,
and other income, if any, from the Property (including, without limitation, any property
management fees, any and all fees or other compensation paid to the Partnership under any
Service Contract, Lease or other agreement for the Property, whether paid monthly, upon
contract execution or otherwise, as consideration for the Partnership or its agent entering
into the applicable Service Contract, Lease or other agreement), taxes, assessments, ground
rents, improvement bonds, service or other contract fees, utility costs, amounts due and
payable under the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Master Contribution Agreement) for the
Property (to the extent that the Loan Obligations are not otherwise included in any other
adjustment to the Contribution Value under this Agreement or otherwise allocated as herein
provided), and other expenses affecting the Property that are received or due and payable,
shall be prorated between the Partnership and the Continuing Entity as of the Closing Date
based on a 365 day year. For purposes of calculating prorations, the Continuing Entity
shall be deemed to be title holder of the Property, and therefore entitled to the income and
responsible for the expenses, after 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date. Delinquent rentals, if
any, attributable to the Property as of the applicable Closing Date (including, without
limitation, any monthly estimates of percentage rents, operating expenses and/or common area
maintenance charges), shall not be prorated as of such Closing Date, but when paid to the
Continuing Entity, Transferee shall cause the Continuing Entity to deliver such amounts to
the Members (or to PMB on behalf of the Transferor Parties) in proportion to their
respective Percentage Interest, less the costs and expenses incurred by the Continuing
Entity in collecting the same (provided that all current rent has then been paid with
respect to such Leases). After the Closing, neither the Partnership nor the Members nor any
Transferor Party shall have any right to proceed in any manner or make any claim against
Tenants of the Property for rents that were delinquent as of the Closing Date for the
Property or for other matters relating to the Leases for the Property; provided, however,
that PMBRES may proceed or make a claim against Tenants of the Property for such rents in
accordance with the terms of the Property Management Agreement. As of the Closing Date, all
non-delinquent real estate taxes or assessments with respect to the Property shall be
prorated based on the actual current tax xxxx for the Property, but if such tax xxxx has not
yet been received by the Partnership by the Closing Date or if supplemental taxes are
assessed after the Closing for the period prior to the Closing the latest available tax xxxx
will be used and the parties shall make any necessary adjustment after the Closing by either
using the applicable “Estimated Post-Closing Adjustment Amount” (as hereinafter defined) (to
the extent that a payment is owed to the Continuing Entity) or by cash payment to the party
entitled thereto as soon as the final bills are available, so that the Partnership shall
have borne all real property taxes, including all supplemental taxes, allocable to the
period
19
prior to the Closing (and its Members in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interest) and the Continuing Entity shall bear all real property taxes, including all
supplemental taxes, allocable to the period from and after the Closing. If any revenue or
expenses attributable to the Property and allocable to the period prior to the Closing are
discovered, billed or received (as the case may be) after the Closing (including, without
limitation, as a result of any adjustments made after the Closing Date pursuant to any
percentage rent or operating expense annual reconciliation provisions contained in any of
the Leases for the Property), the Continuing Entity and the Members shall make any necessary
adjustment after the applicable Closing by either using the applicable Estimated
Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (to the extent that a payment is owed to the Continuing
Entity) or by cash payment to the other party entitled thereto so that the Partnership shall
have borne all expenses and received all revenue allocable to the period prior to the
Closing (and its Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interest) and the
Continuing Entity shall bear all expenses and receive all revenue allocable to the period
from and after the applicable Closing.
(ii) Estimated Post-Closing Adjustment Amount Reserves. At the Closing,
Transferee and PMB (on behalf of the Members) shall in good faith estimate the amount of
post-Closing proration adjustments reasonably expected to occur with respect to the Property
after the Closing (an “Estimated Post-Closing Adjustment Amount”), understanding
that the Estimated Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is just an estimate and the parties are
not bound by such Estimated Post-Closing Adjustment Amount. Transferee shall cause a
reserve account held by the OP (on behalf of the Continuing Entity) to be established, which
shall be funded with cash in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Estimated
Post-Closing Adjustment Amount for the Property. Such reserve shall be funded at the
Closing in cash by Transferee. The amount funded by Transferee (the “Proration Reserve
Amount”) will reduce (and be treated as a credit against) the Contribution Value in
accordance with Section 1.3(a) hereof. Following the Closing, as and when post-Closing
proration adjustments are mutually agreed upon by the parties, the OP may disburse the cash
in such reserve to the Continuing Entity (to the extent that such post-Closing adjustment
amounts are owed to the Continuing Entity). To the extent that any cash remains in such
reserve as of the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date, subject to the
terms of Section 1.4(b)(ii) hereof, Transferee shall cause the OP to deliver such remaining
funds to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interest; provided,
however, that any amounts owing to the PMB Member shall be disbursed to PMB (on behalf of
the Transferor Parties). In the event that the reserve’s funds are insufficient to pay for
the entirety of the post-Closing proration adjustments, the NHP Member and PMB (on behalf of
the PMB Member) shall deliver such funds in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interest to the Continuing Entity within thirty (30) days of receiving a request for the
same from the OP. Nothing contained in this Section 1.11(a)(ii) shall in any way limit the
obligations of the parties set forth in Section 1.11(a)(i) hereof.
(iii) Proportionate Percentage Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, in the event of an Investment Entity Transaction, Transferee and
the Continuing Entity shall only owe a “Proportionate Percentage” (as hereinafter defined)
of any proration adjustment to be made after the Closing of the Investment Entity
Transaction. As used herein, the term “Proportionate Percentage” shall mean, a
percentage equal to the percentage of membership interests in the Continuing Entity held by
the OP (or a subsidiary thereof) after the Closing. For example, if the Continuing Entity
is owned 80% by the OP (or a subsidiary thereof) and 20% by the PMB Member (on behalf of the
Continuing Partners), then Transferee and the Continuing Entity will only owe eighty percent
(80%) of any proration adjustment to be made after the Closing of the Investment Entity
Transaction. Regardless of the Proportionate Percentage, if any proration adjustments are
owed by the NHP Member or the PMB Member
20
under this Section 1.11(a), then the NHP Member and PMB (on behalf of the PMB Member)
shall deliver one hundred percent (100%) of such amounts to the Continuing Entity in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interest.
(iv) Survival. The provisions of this Section 1.11(a) shall survive the
Closing.
(b) Closing Statements. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing,
Escrow Agent shall deliver to the parties for their review and approval a preliminary closing
statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) the proration amounts
allocable to the Partnership and the Continuing Entity, if applicable, pursuant to this Section
1.11, (ii) the applicable Closing Costs allocable to each of the parties pursuant to Section
1.11(c) hereof, and (iii) the breakdown of the Contribution Value payable in cash, Class A OP Units
and Class B OP Units, or retained by the PMB Member (on behalf of the Continuing Partners in
connection with an Investment Entity Transaction as per the terms of the Closing Notice). Based on
each party’s comments, if any, regarding the Preliminary Closing Statement, Escrow Agent shall
revise the Preliminary Closing Statement and deliver a final, signed version of a closing statement
to Transferee, the NHP Member, PMB and the PMB Member for the Closing (the “Closing
Statement”).
(c) Closing Costs. Subject to the terms of Section 1.19(b) hereof, Transferee and the
NHP Member, on the one hand, and PMB and the PMB Member, on the other hand, shall pay or cause to
be paid its own costs and expenses arising in connection with the Closing (including, without
limitation, its own attorneys’ and advisors’ fees, charges and disbursements), except the following
costs (the “Closing Costs”), which shall be allocated at the Closing as follows:
(i) any and all documentary transfer, stamp, filing, recording, conveyance, intangible,
sales and other taxes related to the Contribution Transaction (“Reimbursable Transfer
Taxes”), which shall be paid by the OP;
(ii) all of Escrow Agent’s escrow fees and costs (fifty percent (50%) of which being
referred to hereinafter as “Reimbursable Escrow Fees,” and together with the
Reimbursable Transfer Taxes, the “Reimbursable Closing Costs”), which shall be paid
by the OP;
(iii) the cost of any surveys, appraisals, environmental, physical and financial audits
and the costs of any other examinations, inspections or audits of the Property obtained by
Transferee, which shall be paid by the OP;
(iv) any and all assumption, prepayment or other fees, penalties or amounts due and
payable in connection with the discharge and satisfaction or the assumption of any Loan
Obligation, which shall be paid by the OP; and
(v) any costs associated with any new financing, including any application and
commitment fees or the costs of such new lender’s other requirements, which shall be paid by
the OP.
1.12 Representations and Warranties of the PMB Member and PMB. The PMB Member
represents and warrants to and agrees with Transferee for itself only, and PMB represents and
warrants to and agrees with Transferee as to itself and jointly and severally with the PMB Member,
as of date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date (unless otherwise specified herein) as

regulation of any governmental agency, or any judgment, order or decree of any court having

Pipeline Agreement or other agreements between Transferee or affiliates of the Transferee,

PMB with sufficient time to (A) deliver such PPM Update to the Transferor Parties, (B)
obtain the Required Interest Holder Consents from each of the Transferor Parties, (C)

Days after a request from Transferee, furnish (or cause to be furnished) to Transferee, for
inclusion in such PPM Update, (A) all information required by Exhibit “Z” attached to the
Master Contribution Agreement for the Property and any other properties described in the
then Current PPM (including any such PPM Update) that may be acquired in the future in any
NHP/PMB Transactions (the Property and such other future properties being referred to
herein, collectively, as the “PMB Properties”), and (B) the “Property Financial
Statements” (as defined in the Master Contribution Agreement) for the PMB Properties for the
most recently completed fiscal quarter.
(iv) Accuracy of Information. PMB hereby represents and warrants that (i) the
information to be provided pursuant to Section 1.14(b)(iii)(A) hereof will not contain any

such Property Financial Statements, and the results of operations, if applicable, of the PMB
Properties for the periods indicated therein, subject, in the case of Property Financial
Statements relating to any quarterly period, to normal year-end adjustments.
(v) Notice of Inaccuracies. If, at any time prior to the Closing, PMB has
knowledge of any fact or circumstance that would make any representation or warranty in
Section 1.14(b)(iv) hereof untrue, then PMB shall promptly inform Transferee and provide
Transferee with the information necessary to prepare an appropriate PPM Update with respect
thereto.
(vi) Liability and Indemnification.
(A) This Section 1.14(b)(vi) shall constitute PMB and their
affiliates’ sole liability and shall constitute Transferee’s and its affiliates’
sole recourse for any breach of this Section 1.14(b) by PMB or any of its
affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, none of PMB or any of its affiliates shall
have any liability under this Section 1.14(b) unless there is a “Claim” (as
hereinafter defined) by a Transferor Party based on a misstatement in or omission
from the Current PPM as a result of an inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of
PMB set forth in Section 1.14(b)(iv) hereof or a breach by PMB of any of its
obligations under this Section 1.14(b), and any such liability shall be limited to
the specific scope of the indemnity provided in Section 1.14(b)(vi)(B) hereof.
(B) PMB will indemnify, and hold Transferee harmless from and against
all Claims incurred by Transferee to a Transferor Party as a result of a
misstatement of material fact contained in the Current PPM or omission of a material
fact from the Current PPM that is (A) required by Exhibit “Z” attached to
the Master Contribution Agreement with respect to the PMB Properties or (B)
necessary in order to make the statements therein, under the circumstances under
which they are made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such information
was included in, or omitted from the Current PPM, as a result of an inaccuracy in a
representation or warranty of PMB made in Section 1.14(b)(iv) hereof or a breach by
PMB of its obligations under this Section 1.14(b); provided, however, that PMB will
not be liable in any such case if Transferee has knowledge of any misstatement in or
omission from the Current PPM, and Transferee failed to deliver an amendment,
supplement, update and/or replacement to the Current PPM correcting such
misstatement or omission. In the event that Transferee incurs any Claims to a
Transferor Party other than pursuant to a binding judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction, such Claims may not be used to establish whether any alleged
misstatement of material fact or omission to state a material fact actually existed
or if it existed, whether it resulted from an inaccuracy in a representation or
warranty of PMB in Section 1.14(b)(iv) hereof or a breach by PMB of this
Section 1.14(b), such facts to be separately established by Transferee in any
dispute between the parties relating thereto.
1.15 Risk of Loss. The provisions of Section 11 of the Master Contribution Agreement
shall be incorporated into this Agreement, except that all references therein to (a) “each

28
Owning Entity” shall mean the Continuing Entity, and (e) “Total Property Value” shall mean the

CONTRIBUTION TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY FAIL TO CLOSE AS A RESULT OF THE DEFAULT OF TRANSFEREE
OR THE NHP MEMBER IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, TRANSFEREE, THE NHP
MEMBER, PMB AND THE PMB MEMBER AGREE THAT PMB AND THE PMB MEMBER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES WOULD BE

MEMBER) LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE SUM OF THE CONTRIBUTION VALUE
AND THE OUTSTANDING BALANCE OF THE LOAN OBLIGATIONS (THE “LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AMOUNT”). IN
THE EVENT THAT THE ESCROW AND THE CONTRIBUTION TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY FAIL TO CLOSE AS A
RESULT OF TRANSFEREE’S OR THE NHP MEMBER’S DEFAULT, THEN (A) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE ESCROW CREATED HEREBY SHALL TERMINATE, (B) ESCROW AGENT

NOT CURED WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS THEREAFTER.

equity, arising out of or in connection with Claim for which an indemnified party is entitled to
indemnification hereunder, including, without limitation, on account of any breach by any party of
any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement that
give rise to such Claims.
(d) Limitations on Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement (other than with respect to Transferee’s Claims arising from (i) PMB’s or the PMB
Member’s fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) any Investor Claims, (iii) the indemnity set forth in
Section 11.14(b)(vi) hereof, (iv) the exercise of any Claim under the JV Agreement, or (v) the
exercise of any Claim under the Pipeline Agreement (or any other documents or agreements executed
in connection therewith) with respect to any other property (other than the Property), with respect
to items (i) through (v) above the parties hereby agree that the limitations set forth in this
sentence shall not apply), Transferee shall not seek, or be entitled to, indemnification or any
other action, whether in law or in equity, for a breach of any express representation, warranty,
covenant or obligation of PMB or the PMB Member under this Agreement or under any other Transaction
Document (A) to the extent the aggregate Claims for damages or losses for which indemnification is
sought pursuant to this Section 1.18 or any other claim for breach of any other express
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of PMB or the PMB Member under this Agreement or
under any other Transaction Document is less than the applicable “Threshold” (as hereinafter
defined) or (ii) to the extent the aggregate Claims for all such damages or losses exceed an amount
equal to the “Cap” (as hereinafter defined). As used herein, the term “Threshold” shall
mean with respect to PMB and the PMB Member, the sum of $50,000.00. As used herein, the term
“Cap” shall mean with respect to PMB and the PMB Member, an amount equal to three percent
(3%) of the sum of the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount and the PMB Member’s Percentage
Interest of the outstanding balance of the Loan Obligations. In calculating the amount of any
damages payable to Transferee hereunder, the amount of the damages (A) shall not be duplicative of
any other award for any indemnification claim or other claim for breach of any express
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of PMB or the PMB Member under this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document, and (B) shall be computed net of any amounts actually recovered by
Transferee under any insurance policy with respect to such damages. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, no party hereto shall seek, or be entitled to indemnification or any other
action, and each of the party’s hereby expressly waive any right to recover, any and all
consequential damages, punitive damages and exemplary damages, and any other damages which would be
predicated in whole or in part upon loss of bargain, opportunity lost, or any loss of anticipated
benefits incurred by such party by reason of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
obligation of any other party under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
31
(e) Further Assurances. Each party shall do, execute and deliver, or shall cause to
be done, executed and delivered, all such further acts and instruments which the other party may
reasonably request in order to more fully effectuate the indemnifications provided for in this
Agreement.
(f) Survival. The provisions of this Section 1.18 shall survive the Closing;
provided, however, that in addition to the terms of Section 1.12(j) hereof, all or any Claims for
indemnification made directly and independently by Transferee (and not as a result of any third
party Claims) must be made (by Transferee delivering written notice thereof to PMB and the PMB
Member), if at all, on or before the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date.
1.19 Miscellaneous.
(a) Generally. The provisions of Section 15, Sections 16.1 through 16.4, inclusive,
and Sections 16.6 through 16.24, inclusive, of the Master Contribution Agreement shall be
incorporated into this Agreement, but shall be deemed modified for purposes of this Agreement to
reflect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the applicable parties hereto. In
addition, for purposes of this Agreement the definition of “knowledge” parties set forth in Section
16.20 of the Master Contribution Agreement (and any corollary provisions relating thereto) as used
in this Agreement shall be deemed modified to reflect the then current executive officers of NHP
and PMB, and to the extent applicable any additional state specific requirements (i.e., consistent
with those set forth in Sections 16.21 through 16.23 of the Master Contribution Agreements) shall
be incorporated into this Agreement.
(b) PMB Legal Fees and Other Costs. Subject to the provision for payment of Closing
Costs in accordance with the terms of Section 1.11(c) hereof and any other provision of this
Agreement or other Transaction Documents to the contrary, whether or not the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated, all fees and expenses incurred by any party
hereto in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be borne by such
party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PMB and the PMB Member, in their sole and absolute
discretion, may direct Transferee to pay on behalf of PMB and/or the PMB Member all or any portion
of such party’s third party legal fees and other third party expenses actually incurred in
connection with (i) the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents, (ii) the performance of such party’s obligations and covenants contemplated by any of
the foregoing, and (iii) the costs of all certificates, instruments, documents and other items
required to be delivered or caused to be delivered by such party in connection with the
transactions contemplated by any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Legal Fees and
Costs”), by delivering written notice to Transferee and Escrow Agent not less than four (4)
Business Days prior to the applicable Closing of its election to cause the OP to pay such amount
(each a “Legal Fees and Costs Notice”). The exact amount of Legal Fees and Costs that PMB
and/or the PMB Member has elected to cause Transferee to pay or reimburse at Closing shall be set
forth in the final Closing Statement approved by the parties prior to the Closing. Transferee
shall pay such Legal Fees and Costs at the Closing (the “Reimbursable Legal Fees and Costs
Amount”) as directed in the Closing Statement and the PMB Member’s Contribution Value Amount
shall be reduced by the amount of such payments pursuant to the terms of Section 1.3(b) hereof.
1.20 Additional Tax Matters Regarding Partnership.
(a) The NHP Member and PMB Member acknowledge and agree that the Partnership will terminate as
a partnership for tax purposes upon the Closing and, that as a result, (i) the taxable year of the
Partnership shall end at the end of the day on which such Closing occurs for federal and state
income tax purposes and (ii) the accounting and financial books of the Partnership shall be closed
at the end of the day on which such Closing occurs. All items of income, gain, loss and deduction
of the Partnership for the taxable year of the Partnership that ends at the end of the day on which
such
32
Closing occurs shall be allocated to such period using a “closing of the books” method. In
the case of any taxes owed by the Partnership that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable
for a taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the day such Closing occurs, the portion
of such tax which relates to the portion of such taxable period ending on the day such Closing
occurs shall (A) in the case of any taxes other than taxes based upon or related to income or
receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending at the end of
the day on which such Closing occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in the
entire taxable period, and (B) in the case of any tax based upon or related to income or receipts
be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended at the
end of the day on which such Closing occurs. All determinations necessary to give effect to the
foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with the prior practices of the
Partnership and all tax returns of the Partnership shall be prepared in a manner consistent with
the prior practices of the Partnership.
(b) Following such Closing, the PMB Member will coordinate and facilitate the preparation of
drafts of the final tax returns for the Partnership through the Partnership’s accountants. The PMB
Member shall provide such draft returns to the NHP Member for its review and approval and shall do
so such that the NHP Member has a minimum of thirty (30) days to review the same prior to the
deadline for filing such returns. Upon the NHP Member’s approval of the draft returns, the PMB
Member shall cause the same to be properly filed with the applicable local, state and federal
authorities. The PMB Member shall also coordinate and facilitate the preparation of a final tax
basis balance sheet and the detail of all of the tax basis fixed assets by the Partnership’s
accountants, and shall provide the same in electronic form to the NHP Member concurrently with
providing the draft returns. All fees payable to the Partnership’s accountants in connection with
services rendered pursuant to this Section 1.20 and all filing fees and other costs payable to
third parties incurred pursuant to this Section 1.20 shall be paid by the Members in proportion to
their respective Percentage Interest. The NHP Member shall promptly reimburse the PMB Member for,
or pay directly, its Percentage Interest of all such fees, filing fees and other costs in
connection with the foregoing promptly upon receipt of an invoice therefor.
(c) The provisions of this Section 1.20 shall survive the Closing.
