ARTICLE VI
TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS

Section 6.1 Survey. Seller has delivered, or within three (3) business days of the Effective Date, shall deliver to Purchaser, a copy of the Existing Survey. Any modification, update or recertification of the Existing Survey shall be at Purchaser's election and sole cost and expense. The Existing Survey, together with any update Purchaser has elected to obtain, if any, is herein referred to as the "Updated Survey". In the event that the Existing Survey or the Updated Survey sets forth any survey matters which are (a) objectionable to Purchaser, and (b) materially interfere with the use of the Real Property and the Improvements for their intended use, Purchaser agrees to provide Seller with notice of such objections (the "Survey Objections") prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period. Purchaser agrees to cause the party preparing the Updated Survey to provide two (2) copies of same to Seller's counsel simultaneous with the delivery of the Updated Survey to Purchaser.

Section 6.2 Title Commitment.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges receipt of that certain title insurance commitment issued by Lawyer's Title Insurance Corporation under Commitment No. NYN-02-001835 (the "Title Commitment"), together with copies of the title exceptions listed thereon. Purchaser will deliver written notice of any objections to matters shown on the Title Commitment on or prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period. In addition, Purchaser shall have five (5) Business Days after Purchaser's counsel receives notice of any new objection or exception to the title to the Real Property raised by the Title Company after the effective date of the Title Commitment and prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall provide Seller with written notice of such new objection if Purchaser deems same unacceptable (title matters objected to by Purchaser as set forth in this Section 6.2 are herein called "Title Objections"). If Purchaser's counsel receives notice of any Title Objections with less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, then (x) the Closing shall be postponed for a sufficient number of days in order for Purchaser's counsel to have five (5) Business Days to review said Title Objections and to advise Seller if Purchaser deems same unacceptable and (y) the balance of this Agreement shall apply with respect to Seller's right to cure same. In the event Seller does not receive the Title Objections by the applicable objection date, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted the exceptions to title set forth on the Title Commitment or on any updates thereto as Permitted Exceptions. Prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period (unless this Agreement has been terminated or is deemed terminated by Purchaser), Purchaser shall cause the Title Company to furnish to Purchaser and Seller's counsel a preliminary title report or title commitment, by the terms of which the Title Company agrees to issue to Purchaser at Closing, an owner's policy of title insurance (the "Title Policy") in the amount of the Purchase Price on the then-standard ALTA owner's form insuring Purchaser's fee simple title to the Real Property, subject to the terms of such policy and the exceptions described therein (including, without limitation, the standard or general exceptions). Subject to this Section 6.2(a) and Purchaser's review and acceptance of same, all matters shown on such form Title Commitment and the exceptions shown on Exhibit G (collectively, the "Permitted Exceptions") are conclusively deemed to be acceptable to Purchaser.

(b) All taxes, water rates or charges, sewer rents and assessments, plus interest and penalties thereon, which on the Closing Date are liens against the Real Property and which Seller is obligated to pay and discharge will be credited against the Purchase Price (subject to the provision for apportionment of taxes, water rates and sewer rents herein contained) and shall not be deemed a Title Objection (and the Title Company shall affirmatively insure same). If on the Closing Date there shall be security interests filed against the Real Property which relate to personal property, such items shall not be Title Objections if (A) (i) the personal property covered by such security interests are no longer in or on the Real Property, or (ii) such personal property is the property of

a Tenant, or the security interest has expired under applicable law, and (B) the Title Company shall affirmatively insure over the same.

(c) If on the Closing Date the Real Property shall be affected by any lien which, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, is required to be discharged or satisfied by Seller, Seller shall not be required to discharge or satisfy the same of record provided the money necessary to satisfy the lien is retained by the Title Company at Closing, and the Title Company either omits the lien as an exception from the Title Commitment or insures against collection thereof in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, and a credit is given to Purchaser for the recording charges for a satisfaction or discharge of such lien.

(d) No franchise, transfer, inheritance, income, corporate or other tax open, levied or imposed against Seller or any former owner of the Property, that may be a lien against the Property on the Closing Date, shall be an objection to title if the Title Company either omits the lien as an exception from the Title Commitment or insures against collection thereof from or out of the Real Property and/or the Improvements, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, and provided further that Seller deposits with the Title Company a sum reasonably sufficient to secure a release of the Property from the lien thereof. If a search of title discloses judgments, bankruptcies, or other returns against other persons having names similar to that of Seller, Seller will deliver to Purchaser an affidavit stating that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns do not apply to Seller, and such search results shall not be deemed Title Objections if the Title Company either omits the lien as an exception from the Title Commitment or insures against collection thereof from or out of the Real Property and/or the Improvements in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.

Section 6.3 Title Defect.

(a) In the event Seller receives any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually, a "Title Defect") within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice, within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, it shall do so in a prompt and diligent manner, and the Closing Date shall be extended for one or more periods not to exceed in the aggregate sixty (60) days, for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) after exercising reasonable diligent efforts, but in no event requiring Seller to expend sums of money to cure such default except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect for any period elected by Seller but not to exceed sixty (60) days from the Closing Date, Seller shall so advise Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election within ten (10) days of receipt of Seller's notice. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, Seller will be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Property, in the manner described above, relating to liens and security interests securing any financings to or assumed or taken subject to by Seller, and any mechanic's liens resulting from work at the Property commissioned by Seller, and any other encumbrances placed of record by Seller which may be satisfied by the payment of a sum certain.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller shall not be obligated to bring any action or proceeding, to make any payments or otherwise to incur any expense in order to eliminate any Title Defect not waived by Purchaser

or to arrange for title insurance insuring against enforcement of such Title Defects against, or collection out of the Real Property; provided, however, that Seller shall satisfy or discharge mortgages, real estate taxes and assessments, tax or judgment liens against Seller, and all mechanic's liens secured by or affecting the Real Property resulting from work at the Property commissioned by Seller regardless of amount; provided, however, Seller's obligation to satisfy or discharge judgments against Seller, administrative or other violations (collectively, "Liens") secured by or affecting the Real Property which can be satisfied by payment of readily ascertainable amounts shall not exceed, in the aggregate for all such Liens, a sum equal to Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (the "Cap"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Seller fails to satisfy or discharge all mortgages, real estate taxes and assessments and mechanic's liens secured by or affecting the Real Property as aforesaid, then Seller shall direct the Title Company to satisfy or discharge all such unsatisfied mortgages, real estate taxes and assessments out of the Closing proceeds so that the Title Company shall be able to omit such mortgages, real estate taxes and assessments, and mechanic's liens from the Title Policy (hereinafter defined). In the event that the cost of discharging or satisfying the Liens on the Property exceeds the Cap, Purchaser shall have the right to either (a) waive the Liens as a Title Defect and close on the Property, without a reduction in the Purchase Price, in which event Seller shall be obligated to credit Purchaser at Closing with an amount equal to the Cap; or (b) terminate the Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. Without limiting the generality of the preceding provisions of this Section 6.3, for the purposes of this Agreement, Seller's failure or refusal to bring any action or proceeding, to make any payments or to otherwise incur any expense (except for Seller's obligation to satisfy mortgages, real estate taxes, assessments, and mechanic's liens, regardless of amount, and Liens which, in the aggregate, can be satisfied by payment of readily ascertainable amounts not to exceed the Cap) in order to eliminate Title Defects not waived by Purchaser or to arrange for such title insurance shall be deemed an inability of Seller to eliminate such Title Defects or to arrange for such title insurance and shall not constitute a default by Seller hereunder (willful or otherwise).

ARTICLE VII
INTERIM OPERATING COVENANTS,
ESTOPPELS

Section 7.1 Interim Operating Covenants. Seller covenants to Purchaser that Seller will:

(a) Operations. From the Effective Date until Closing, continue to operate, manage and maintain the Improvements in the ordinary course of Seller's business and substantially in accordance with Seller's present practice, subject to ordinary wear and tear and further subject to Article XI of this Agreement.

(b) Compliance with Governmental Regulations. From the Effective Date until Closing, not take any action that would result in a failure to comply in all material respects with all Governmental Regulations applicable to the Property, it being understood and agreed that prior to Closing, Seller will have the right to contest any such Governmental Regulations.

(c) Service Contracts. From the expiration of the Effective Period until Closing, not enter into any service contract other than in the ordinary course of business, unless such service contract is terminable on thirty (30) days notice without penalty or unless Purchaser consents thereto in writing.

(d) Notices. To the extent received by Seller, from the Effective Date until Closing, promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of written default notices, notices of lawsuits and notices of violations affecting the Property.

(e) Leasing Arrangements. From the Effective Date through Closing (the "Contract Period"), without Purchaser's prior written consent in each instance, Seller will not amend or terminate any

existing Lease or enter into any new Lease without Purchaser's prior written consent (which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion). Without limitation thereon, any and all Leases to be entered into during the Contract Period shall be on Seller's standard lease form delivered to Purchaser and otherwise on terms and conditions acceptable to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to grant or withhold its consent to any proposed Lease within five (5) days of receipt thereof, Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to such Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser's consent shall not be required with respect to any renewal Lease or consent to a sublease or assignment of Lease which Seller, as a matter of law or by a Lease, shall be required to deliver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller reserves the right, but is not obligated, to institute summary proceedings against any Tenant or terminate any Lease as a result of a default by the tenant thereunder prior to the Closing Date. Seller makes no representations and assumes no responsibility with respect to the continued occupancy of the Property or any part thereof by any Tenant. The removal of a Tenant prior to the Closing Date, whether by summary proceedings (or any written agreement accepting surrender or termination of the Lease subsequent to the commencement of such summary proceedings) or unilateral act of such Tenant, shall not give rise to any claim on the part of Purchaser; provided, however, Purchaser shall have the right within ten (10) days of the removal of any Tenant as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of any portion of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit previously tendered by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and the parties shall have no further rights and obligations to one another except for those obligations expressly stated herein to survive. If Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate pursuant to this Section 7.1(e) and Purchaser shall proceed to Closing without credit against, or reduction of, the Purchase Price.

Section 7.2 Estoppels.

(a) It will be a condition to Closing that Seller obtain from each Tenant an executed estoppel certificate in the form prescribed by the Lease for each such Tenant dated no earlier than 30 days prior to Closing, except to the extent that Purchaser shall cause or request an extension of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees to request that each Tenant execute an estoppel certificate in the form reasonably requested by Purchaser and annexed hereto as Exhibit H. No later than five (5) Business Days after the end of the Evaluation Period, Seller will request each Tenant to execute an estoppel certificate in the form of Exhibit H required herein, and use good faith efforts to obtain same. Seller shall not be in default of its obligations hereunder if any Tenant fails to deliver an estoppel certificate, or delivers an estoppel certificate which is not in the form of Exhibit H. Purchaser agrees that an estoppel from any Tenant in the form prescribed by such Tenant's Lease shall satisfy the estoppel delivery condition in this Section 7.2 for such Tenant, provided that (i) the rental information contained in such estoppel shall conform in all material respects to the rent roll delivered at Closing, and (ii) there shall be no material defaults which remain uncured after notice and expiration of applicable grace periods.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a Tenant shall certify in its estoppel confirming any matter set forth in Section 8.1(f), then Seller's representations and warranties as to such matters shall terminate. The provisions of this Section 7.2(b) shall survive the Closing and the execution and delivery of the Deed.

Section 7.3 Intentionally omitted.

(b) If Purchaser becomes aware or should have become aware (whether through its own investigations, by notice from Seller or otherwise) that any such representation or warranty is untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, and is not cured or corrected by Seller on or before the Closing Date (whether or not the Closing is adjourned as provided above), then Purchaser, as its sole remedy for any and all such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect representations or warranties, shall have the right to elect either (A) to waive such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect representations or warranties, and proceed to Closing, and receive no credit against, or reduction of, the Purchase Price due to such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect representations or warranties; and/or (B) to terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that if Seller intentionally or knowingly made any such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect representations or warranties, then, in the event that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser's sole remedy shall be to receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit together with its actual out of pocket expenses up to the sum of $25,000 for each Portfolio Property.

(c) If, despite changes or other matters described in the certificate described in Section 10.3(i) herein, the Closing occurs, Seller's representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been modified by all statements made in such certificate.

Section 8.4 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a) The representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 8.1, and the covenants of Seller set forth in Section 7.1, will survive the Closing for a period of nine (9) months. Purchaser will not have any right to bring any action against Seller as a result of any untruth or inaccuracy of such representations and warranties, or any such breach, unless and until the aggregate amount of all liability and losses arising out of any such untruth or inaccuracy, or any such breach exceeds Twenty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($20,000.00); it being agreed that if such threshold amount

shall be exceeded, Purchaser may recover all damages from "first dollar". In addition, in no event will Seller's liability for all such breaches relating to this Agreement and/or any other Portfolio Sale and Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, statements made by Seller in any Closing Document) exceed with respect to the Property and the other Portfolio Properties, in the aggregate, the sum of Three Million and No/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00). Subject to Section 8.3 (b) above, Seller shall have no liability with respect to any of Seller's representations, warranties and covenants herein if, prior to the Closing, Purchaser has knowledge (from whatever source, including, without limitation, any estoppel certificates, as a result of Purchaser's due diligence tests, investigations and inspections of the Property, or written disclosure by Seller or Seller's agents and employees) of any breach of a covenant of Seller herein, or if the officers and employees of Purchaser primarily responsible for this transaction have actual knowledge (as opposed to constructive or imputed knowledge) or obtain knowledge that contradicts any of Seller's representations, warranties and covenants herein or statements made by Seller in any Closing Document, and Purchaser nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. The Closing Surviving Obligations and the Termination Surviving Obligations will survive Closing without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement. All other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made or undertaken by Seller under this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, will not survive the Closing Date but will be merged into the Deed and other Closing documents delivered at the Closing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.3 or this Section 8.4, if at any time after the expiration of the Evaluation Period but prior to Closing, Purchaser discovers that Seller has failed to provide Purchaser with any lease or lease amendment which contains terms and conditions which have a material, adverse effect upon the Property and/or the ability of Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller (the "Discovery Notice") no later than the sooner of four days from the date of such discovery or Closing. In the event of such termination, Purchaser shall receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, and upon the return of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with its actual, reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated herein as well as in each of the other Portfolio Sale and Purchase Agreements, there shall be no further obligations or liabilities between the parties except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. Purchaser's failure to deliver the Discovery Notice shall be deemed Purchaser's election to proceed to Closing. In the event that such lease or lease amendment is either (i) immaterial, or (ii) material as set forth above but Purchaser proceeds to Closing as set forth herein, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to receive a reimbursement of any of its out of pocket expenses, as set forth above, and Purchaser shall close the transaction with no credit against, or reduction of, the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE IX
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CLOSING

Section 10.4 Prorations.

(a) Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Closing Date (the "Proration Time"), the following (collectively, the "Proration Items"):

(i) Rents, in accordance with Subsection 10.4(b) below.

(ii) Security Deposits and any prepaid rents, together with interest required to be paid thereon.

(iii) Utility charges payable by Seller, including, without limitation, electricity, water charges and sewer charges. If there are meters on the Real Property, Seller will cause readings of all said meters to be performed not more than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, and a per diem adjustment shall be made for the days between the meter reading date and the Closing Date based on the most recent meter reading.

(iv) Amounts payable under the Service Contracts other than those Service Contracts which Purchaser has elected not to assume.

(v) Real estate taxes due and payable for the calendar year. If the Closing Date shall occur before the tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of real estate taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation. If subsequent to the Closing Date, real estate taxes (by reason of change in either assessment or rate or for any other reason) for the Real Property should be determined to be higher or lower than those that are apportioned, a new computation shall be made, and Seller agrees to pay Purchaser any increase shown by such recomputation and vice versa.

Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Proration Time, and Purchaser will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Proration Time. The estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by Seller and submitted to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date (the "Closing Statement"). The Closing Statement, once agreed upon, shall be signed by Purchaser and Seller. The proration shall be paid at Closing by Purchaser to Seller (if the prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Purchaser in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Date, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Purchaser. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums, and Seller's insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Final readings and final xxxxxxxx for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Date, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills. Seller will be entitled to all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Purchaser will be obligated to make its own arrangements for any deposits with the utility providers. The provisions of this Section 10.4(a) will survive the Closing for twelve (12) months.

(b) Purchaser will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Proration Time) of all Rental previously paid to or collected by Seller and attributable to any period following the Proration Time. After the Closing, Seller will cause to be paid or turned over to Purchaser all Rental, if any, received by Seller after Closing and attributable to any period following the Proration Time. "Rental" as used herein includes fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, percentage rentals, escalation rentals (which include each Tenant's proration share of building operation and maintenance costs and expenses as provided for under the Lease, to the extent the same exceeds any expense stop specified in such Lease), retroactive rentals, all administrative charges, utility charges, tenant or real property association dues, storage rentals, special event proceeds, temporary rents, telephone receipts, locker rentals, vending machine receipts and other sums and charges payable by Tenants under the Leases or from other occupants or users of the Property. Rental is delinquent when it was due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Proration Time ("Delinquent Rental"). Delinquent Rental will not be prorated at Closing. Purchaser agrees to include any Delinquent Rentals in its usual billing for up to six (6) months after Closing, but Purchaser will have no liability for the failure to collect any such amounts and will not be required to declare a default under any Lease or pursue legal action or incur any costs or expenses to enforce collection of any such amounts owed to Seller by any Tenant. All sums collected by Purchaser from and after Closing from each Tenant (excluding tenant specific xxxxxxxx for tenant work orders and other specific services will be applied first to current amounts owed by such Tenant to Purchaser and then to Delinquent Rental owed by such Tenant to Seller. Any sums due Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller.

(c) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a list of additional rent, however characterized, under each Lease, including without limitation, real estate taxes, electrical charges, utility costs and operating expenses (collectively, "Operating Expenses") billed to Tenants for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs (both on a monthly basis and in the aggregate), the basis on which the monthly amounts are being billed and the amounts incurred by Seller on account of the components of Operating Expenses for such calendar year. Upon the reconciliation by Purchaser of the Operating Expenses billed to Tenants, and the amounts actually incurred for such calendar year, Seller and Purchaser shall be liable for overpayments of Operating Expenses, and

shall be entitled to payments from Tenants, as the case may be, on a pro-rata basis based upon each party's period of ownership during such calendar year.

(d) With respect to specific tenant xxxxxxxx for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of a Tenant or other specific services, which are collected by Purchaser after the Closing Date but relate to the foregoing specific services rendered by Seller prior to the Proration Time, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall cause the first amounts collected from such Tenant to be paid to Seller on account thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 10.4 to the contrary, Purchaser will be solely responsible for any leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs or other expenditures due with respect to any renewal and/or expansion rights under any existing Lease which are exercised after the Effective Date, and Seller shall be responsible for any leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs or other expenditures due on account of the initial term, or renewal period of any Lease, if the initial term or the renewal period began prior to the Effective Date. Purchaser further agrees to be solely responsible for all leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs and other expenditures (for purposes of this Section 10.4(e), "New Tenant Costs") incurred or to be incurred in connection with any new lease or amendment of any existing Lease executed on or after the Effective Date and approved by Purchaser hereunder, and Purchaser will pay to Seller at Closing as an addition to the Purchase Price an amount equal to the New Tenant Costs paid by Seller. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Seller shall be solely responsible for any leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs or other expenditures set forth on Exhibit L annexed hereto and made a part hereof.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Purchaser shall become liable after the Closing for payment of any real estate taxes or other such charges assessed or imposed against the Property for any period of time prior to the Closing Date or other charge or expense which was subject to proration or a Purchase Price credit in Purchaser's favor at Closing, which was not so adjusted or credited at Closing and which is not the obligation of a Tenant to pay or to reimburse the landlord under a Tenant's Lease, Seller shall pay to Purchaser, within thirty (30) days of demand accompanied by a calculation and reconciliation of the amount due, an amount equal to such tax or credit due Purchaser.

Section 10.5 Costs of Title Company and Closing Costs. Costs of the Title Company and other Closing costs incurred in connection with the Closing will be allocated as follows:

(a) Seller shall pay (i) Seller's attorney's fees; (ii) the cost of the premium for that portion of the Title Policy attributable to so called "CLTA coverage", but in no event the cost of any endorsements to such Title Policy requested by Purchaser; (iii) the charges to record the Deed; and (iv) the brokerage commission, if any, due to any broker.

(b) Purchaser shall pay (i) the cost of any additional coverage under the Title Policy or endorsements or deletions to the Title Policy that are desired by Purchaser; (ii) all premiums and other costs for any mortgagee policy of title insurance, if any, including but not limited to any endorsements or deletions; (iii) Purchaser's attorney's fees; and (iv) the costs of the Updated Survey, as provided for in Section 6.1.

(c) Any other costs and expenses of Closing not provided for in this Section 10.5 shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with the custom in the area in which the Property is located.

Section 10.6 Post-Closing Delivery of Tenant Notice Letters. Immediately following Closing, Purchaser will deliver to each Tenant a Tenant Notice Letter, as described in Section 10.2(e).

Section 10.7 Like-kind Exchange. Either party may consummate the purchase or sale (as applicable) of the Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (an "Exchange") pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code, provided that: (a) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of an Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to the exchanging party's obligations under this Agreement; (b) the exchanging party shall effect its Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a qualified intermediary (c) neither party shall be required to take an assignment of the purchase agreement for the relinquished or replacement property or be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating an Exchange desired by the other party; and (d) the exchanging party shall pay any additional costs that would not otherwise have been incurred by the non-exchanging party had the exchanging party not consummated the transaction through an Exchange. Neither party shall by this Agreement or acquiescence to an Exchange desired by the other party have its rights under this Agreement affected or diminished in any manner or be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the exchanging party that its Exchange in fact complies with Section 1031 of the Code.

ARTICLE XI
CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY

Section 11.1 Casualty. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Real Property and Improvements is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller will notify Purchaser of such casualty. Purchaser will have the option to terminate this Agreement upon notice to Seller given not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of Seller's notice if all or a Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements are damaged or destroyed or if that portion so damaged or destroyed is uninsured. If this Agreement is terminated, the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and all interest accrued thereon will be returned to Purchaser and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights or obligations to the other hereunder except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement or less than a Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements is destroyed or damaged as aforesaid, Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction but (a) Seller will assign and turn over to Purchaser the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty up to the amount of the Purchase Price and (b) the parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that Purchaser will receive credit for any insurance deductible amount. In the event Seller elects to perform any repairs as a result of a casualty, Seller will be entitled to deduct its reasonable actual third party costs and expenses from any amount to which Purchaser is entitled under this Section 11.1, which right shall survive the Closing.

Section 11.2 Condemnation of Property.

(a) In the event of (i) any condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of any or all of the Property prior to the Closing, Purchaser will have the option, to be exercised within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of such condemnation or sale, of terminating Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement, or electing to have this Agreement remain in full force and effect. In the event that Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence, Seller will assign to Purchaser any and all claims for the proceeds of such condemnation or sale to the extent the same are applicable to the Property, and Purchaser will take title to the Property with the assignment of such proceeds and subject to such condemnation and without reduction of the Purchase Price. Should Purchaser elect to terminate Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement under the provisions of this Section 11.2, the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and any interest thereon will be returned to Purchaser and neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further obligation under this Agreement, except for the Termination Surviving Obligations.

ARTICLE XII
CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 12.1 Confidentiality. Seller and Purchaser each expressly acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the terms, conditions, and negotiations concerning the same will be held in the strictest confidence by each of them and will not be disclosed by either of them except to their respective legal counsel, accountants, consultants, officers, employees, partners, directors, and shareholders, and except and only to the extent that such disclosure may be necessary for their respective performances hereunder. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, unless and until the Closing occurs, all information obtained by Purchaser in connection with the Property will not be disclosed by Purchaser to any third persons (other than the Permitted Outside Parties) without the prior written consent of Seller. Nothing contained in this Article XII will preclude or limit either party to this Agreement from disclosing or accessing any information otherwise deemed confidential under this Article XII response to lawful process or subpoena or other valid or enforceable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or any filings with governmental authorities required by reason of the transactions provided for herein pursuant to an opinion of counsel. Nothing in this Article XII will negate, supersede or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties under the Confidentiality Agreement. In addition, prior to or as a part of the Closing, any release to the public of information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set forth in this Agreement will be made only in the form approved by Purchaser and Seller and their respective counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The provisions of this Article XII will survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIII
REMEDIES

Section 13.1 Default by Seller. In the event the Closing and the transactions contemplated hereby do not occur as herein provided by reason of any default of Seller, Purchaser may, as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, elect by notice to Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date, either of the following: (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser will receive from the Escrow Agent the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon, whereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations; or (b) seek to enforce specific performance of Seller's obligations under this Agreement. Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event the transactions hereunder do not close by reason of Seller's default hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit if Purchaser fails to advise Seller, on or before thirty (30) days following the Closing Date or thirty (30) days following the last date to which Seller had exercised an extension of the Closing past the Closing Date, that it intends to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located, and if Purchaser fails to actually file such suit within thirty (30) days thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.1 will limit Purchaser's remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in pursuing remedies of a breach by Seller of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations.

Section 13.2 Default by Purchaser. In the event the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein do not occur as provided herein by reason of any default of Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller agree it would be impractical and extremely difficult to fix the damages which Seller may suffer. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that (a) an amount equal to the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (together with interest accrued thereon) is a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment Seller would suffer in the event Purchaser defaults and fails to complete the purchase of the Property, and (b) such amount will be the full, agreed and liquidated damages for Purchaser's default and failure to complete the purchase of the Property, and will be Seller's sole and exclusive remedy

(whether at law or in equity) for any default of Purchaser resulting in the failure of consummation of the Closing, whereupon this Agreement will terminate and Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. The payment of such amount as liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein will limit Seller's remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Purchaser of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations.

ARTICLE XIV

ARTICLE XV
ASSIGNMENT AND BINDING EFFECT

Section 15.1 Assignment: Binding Effect. Seller shall not have the right to assign this Agreement, or to designate another party to be the grantor, transferor or assignor of the Deed, as the case may be, or to assign any of the other Closing documents (except as otherwise permitted under Section 10.7), without the prior written consent of Purchaser to be given or withheld in Purchaser's sole discretion, except that Seller may assign this Agreement to an entity which is owned or controlled by Xxxx-Xxxx Realty Corporation or Xxxx-Xxxx Realty, L.P. Purchaser shall not have the right to assign this Agreement, or to designate another party to be the grantee, transferee or assignee of the Deed, as the case may be, or to assign any of the other Closing documents (except as otherwise permitted under Section 10.7), without the prior written consent of Seller to be given or withheld in Seller's sole discretion, except that Purchaser may assign this Agreement, or designate another party to be the grantee, transferee or assignee, as the case may be, to an entity in which one or more principals of Purchaser and/or its parent company, Highridge Partners, Inc., directly or indirectly are investors and exercise day-to-day management responsibility. No such assignment or designation shall be binding on Seller or effective unless and until Seller shall receive a fully executed assignment and assumption agreement, between Purchaser and its assignee, whereby among other things, such assignee assumes all of the obligations and liabilities of Purchaser hereunder. No such assignment and assumption shall relieve the originally named Purchaser of any of the obligations and liabilities of Purchaser hereunder.

ARTICLE XVI
BROKERAGE

Section 16.1 Brokers. Purchaser and Seller represent that they have not dealt with any brokers, finders or salesmen, in connection with this transaction, and agree to indemnify, defend and hold each other harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, liability or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which either party may sustain, incur or be exposed to by reason of any claim for fees or commissions made through the other party. The provisions of this Article XVI will survive any Closing or termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVII
ESCROW AGENT

Section 17.1. Investment and Use of Funds. The Escrow Agent shall invest the Initial Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and Additional Xxxxxxx Money Deposit in a government insured interest-bearing account satisfactory to Purchaser at an institution having assets of not less than $125,000,000, shall not commingle the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit with any funds of the Escrow Agent or others, and shall promptly provide Purchaser and Seller with confirmation of the investments made. If the Closing under this Agreement occurs, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to, or upon the instructions of, Seller on the Closing Date. Provided such supplemental escrow instructions are not in conflict with this Agreement as it may be amended in writing from time to time, Seller and Purchaser agree to execute such supplemental escrow instructions as may be appropriate to enable Escrow Agent to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 17.2 Other Terminations. Upon a termination of this Agreement for reasons other than a termination by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.3 above, either party to this Agreement (the "Terminating Party") may give written notice to the Escrow Agent and the other party (the "Non-Terminating Party") of such termination and the reason for such termination. Such request shall also constitute a request for the release of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to the Terminating Party. The Non-Terminating Party shall then have five (5) Business Days in which to object in writing to the release of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to the Terminating Party. If the Non-Terminating Party provides such an objection, then the Escrow Agent shall retain the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit until it receives written instructions executed by both Seller and Purchaser as to the disposition and disbursement of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, or until ordered by final court order, decree or judgment, which is not subject to appeal, to deliver the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to a particular party, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be delivered in accordance with such notice, instruction, order, decree or judgment.

Section 17.3 Interpleader. Except as provided in Section 17.2 above, Seller and Purchaser mutually agree that in the event of any controversy regarding the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, unless mutual written instructions are received by the Escrow Agent directing the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit's disposition, the Escrow Agent shall not take any action, but instead shall await the disposition of any proceeding relating to the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit or, at the Escrow Agent's option, the Escrow Agent may interplead all parties and deposit the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit with a court of competent jurisdiction in which event the Escrow Agent may recover all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. Seller or Purchaser, whichever loses in any such interpleader action, shall be solely obligated to pay such costs and fees of the Escrow Agent, as well as the reasonable attorneys' fees of the prevailing party in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

Section 17.4 Liability of Escrow Agent. The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or Purchaser resulting from the Escrow Agent's mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent's scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent's duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.

Section 17.5 Escrow Fee. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, the escrow fee, if any, charged by the Escrow Agent for holding the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit or conducting the Closing shall be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser.

ARTICLE XVIII
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 18.1 Waivers. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or provisions contained herein will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach thereof, or of any other covenant or provision contained herein. No extension of time for performance of any obligation or act will be deemed an extension of the time for performance of any other obligation or act.

Section 18.2 Recovery of Certain Fees. In the event a party hereto files any action or suit against another party hereto by reason of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements or provisions contained in this Agreement, then in that event the prevailing party will be entitled to have and recover the reasonable, actual costs and expenses the prevailing party has incurred therein from the other party including all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs resulting therefrom. In the event that one party hereto has not prevailed entirely in any such suit or action, only the party which has prevailed to a greater extent (as determined by the court, agency or other authority before which such suit, action or proceeding is commenced) shall be entitled to so recover, its reasonable actual costs and expenses but such prevailing party shall only be entitled to recover that portion of such costs and expenses which is in proportion to the relative degree to which such party prevailed in such suit or action (as determined by the court, agency or other authority before which such suit, action or proceeding is commenced). For purposes of this Agreement, the term "attorneys' fees" or "attorneys' fees and costs" shall mean the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing, photostating, duplicating and other expenses, air freight charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of an attorney, and the costs and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of any judgment obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of this Section 18.2 shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or be deemed to have merged, into any judgment.

Section 18.3 Construction. Headings at the beginning of each article and section are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the singular will include the plural and the masculine will include the feminine and vice versa. This Agreement will not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. All exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and incorporated by this reference, and any capitalized term used in any exhibit or schedule which is not defined in such exhibit or schedule will have the meaning attributable to such term in the body of this Agreement. In the event the date on which Purchaser or Seller is required to take any action under the terms of this Agreement is not a Business Day, the action will be taken on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 18.4 Counterparts.

All such fully executed original counterparts will collectively constitute a single agreement.

Section 18.5 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all of the other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any adverse manner to either party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to

reflect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

This Agreement is the final expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto.
