All exceptions set forth in the Title Commitment which are not objected to by Purchaser (including matters initially objected to by Purchaser which objections are subsequently waived in writing) are herein collectively called the “Permitted Encumbrances”.

(b) In the event that any update to the Title Commitment indicates the existence of any liens, encumbrances or other defects or exceptions (the “Unacceptable Encumbrances”) which are not shown in the initial Title Commitment and that are unacceptable to Purchaser, in its reasonable discretion, Purchaser shall within five (5) days after receipt of any such update to the Title Commitment notify Seller in writing of its objection to any such Unacceptable Encumbrance (the “Unacceptable Encumbrance Notice”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall have no obligation to take any steps or bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify any of the Unacceptable Encumbrances; provided, however, that Seller shall, prior to Closing, eliminate by paying, bonding around or otherwise discharging (i) any Unacceptable Encumbrances that arise as a result of Seller’s intentional acts or omissions, (ii) any mortgages, deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt that appear on the Title Commitment (the “Mortgages”) other than the Security Deed and any other instruments and agreements evidencing the Loan assumed by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1 above, and (iii) all mechanics, judgment, tax and other monetary liens and encumbrances of liquidated amounts (excluding, however, current, non-delinquent taxes and assessments) affecting the Property which were voluntarily caused or created by, through or under Seller (collectively, the “Monetary Liens”) (the matters set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii) above are collectively referred to herein as the “Mandatory Removal Items”). In the event Seller is unable, unwilling or for any reason fails to eliminate or modify all of the Unacceptable Encumbrances to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser (other than the Mandatory Removal Items required to be removed by Seller in accordance with the preceding sentence), Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof in writing to Seller by the latest to occur of (x) the Closing Date, (y) five (5) days after Seller’s written notice to Purchaser of Seller’s intent to not cure one or more of such Unacceptable Encumbrances, or (z) ten (10) days after the Unacceptable Encumbrance Notice, in the event Seller does not timely respond thereto; provided, however, the Closing Date shall in no event be extended to allow for the running of the time periods described in the aforesaid clauses (y) and (z). Upon a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, upon prior written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations.

Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following Seller’s receipt of the Survey Comment Letter concerning which objections to the Survey, if any, Seller has agreed to cure. In the event that Seller does not undertake to address all of the comments in the Survey Comment Letter to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction (or does not timely respond to the Survey Comment Letter), then Purchaser shall have the right for five (5) days after receipt of Seller’s response to the Survey Comment

Letter (or five (5) days following the expiration of the period within which Seller was to so respond) to either (i) waive any such Survey objection in writing and proceed to Closing (in which event such waived Survey objection shall be deemed to be a Permitted Encumbrance), or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Purchaser upon written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations.

If, notwithstanding that Purchaser has Deemed Knowledge of any such matter, as aforesaid, Purchaser nevertheless elects to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any and all rights and remedies otherwise available to Purchaser with respect to such breach of which Purchaser has Deemed Knowledge, which waiver expressly shall survive Closing. Seller’s liability for breach of any covenant, indemnity, representation or warranty with respect to this Agreement or any document executed by Seller shall be limited to claims in excess of an aggregate $10,000; provided, that if the aggregate of all such claims exceeds $10,000, Seller shall be liable for the full amount of such claims up to the maximum amount permitted pursuant to the immediately following sentence. Seller’s maximum aggregate liability for all claims arising out of Seller’s Representations and Warranties shall not exceed $500,000. Purchaser shall provide written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Limitation Period of any alleged breach of Seller’s Representations and Warranties and shall allow Seller thirty (30) days within which to cure such breach, or, if such breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, an additional reasonable time period, so long as such cure has been commenced within such thirty (30) days and is being diligently pursued but in no event later than sixty (60) days following Purchaser’s initial notice. If Seller fails to cure such breach after written notice and within such cure period, Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be an action at law for actual damages as a consequence thereof, which must be commenced, if at all, within the Limitation Period; provided that if within the Limitation Period Purchaser gives Seller written notice of such a breach and Seller notifies Purchaser of Seller’s commencement of a cure, commences to cure and thereafter terminates such cure effort,

Purchaser shall have an additional time (up to sixty (60) days to allow for Seller’s cure period to fully lapse) from the date of such termination within which to commence an action at law for damages as a consequence of Seller’s failure to cure. The Limitation Period referred to herein shall apply to known as well as unknown breaches of Seller’s Warranties. Purchaser specifically acknowledges that such termination of liability represents a material element of the consideration to Seller.

6.
CLOSING

The closing of the transaction contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall be held through an escrow at the offices of the Escrow Agent, located at the address set forth in Section 9.1 hereof, on March 28, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), unless the parties mutually agree in writing upon another place, time or date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller agree that the Closing Date shall be extended (i) to April 7, 2014 to accommodate the running of the Finance Period, as extended by the F.P. Extension, and (ii) to accommodate any specific longer timing requirements beyond April 7, 2014 imposed by Lender and/or KeyCorp to consummate the Loan Assumption upon the receipt by Seller and Purchaser of a written communication from Lender and/or KeyCorp stating such timing requirements, which extension shall not extend beyond May 7, 2014 without Seller’s written consent, which consent shall be withheld or granted in Seller’s sole discretion.

6.2 Possession. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing, subject only to tenants in possession under the Space Leases, as set forth on the Tenant List delivered at Closing and the Permitted Encumbrances.

6.3 Proration. The following items shall be prorated at Closing: (i) all rents, other amounts payable by the tenants under the Space Leases, and all other income with respect to the Property for the month in which the Closing occurs, (ii) real estate and personal property taxes and other assessments with respect to the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs, and (iii) all operating expenses relating to the ownership and operation of the Property, with Purchaser receiving the benefits and burdens of ownership on the Closing Date. If permitted by the applicable utility providers, utilities shall be canceled by Seller and reestablished in Purchaser’s name on the Closing Date; otherwise, utilities shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing, with such proration to be readjusted at such time as final utility bills become available. Any amounts unpaid under the Contracts which Purchaser elects or is obligated to assume at Closing shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing.

(a) If the Closing shall occur before rents and all other amounts payable by the tenants under the Space Leases and all other income from the Property have been paid for the month in which the Closing occurs, the apportionment of such rents and other amounts and other income shall be upon the basis of such rents, other amounts and other income received by Seller. Subsequent to the Closing, if any such rents and other income are received by Purchaser, all such amounts shall be applied in the following order: (i) first to rent due for the month or months following the month in which Closing occurs to keep rent current, (ii) next, to delinquent rent due for the month in which

Closing occurs, and (iii) the balance to delinquent rent due for the period prior to the month in which Closing occurs. Any such rentals due to Seller shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller within thirty (30) days following Purchaser’s receipt thereof. If, subsequent to the Closing, any such rents and other income payable to Purchaser, as provided above, are received by Seller, Seller shall remit Purchaser’s prorata share thereof, calculated as aforesaid, to Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days after Seller’s receipt. Following the Closing, Purchaser agrees, upon two (2) days’ prior notice from Seller, to provide Seller with access to Purchaser’s books, records and accounts relating to the operation of the Property at Purchaser’s notice address set forth in Section 9.1 below and during standard business hours in order that Seller may verify compliance with the preceding terms and provisions of this Section 6.3(a). The obligations of the parties under this Section 6.3(a) expressly shall survive Closing.

(b) If the Closing shall occur before the tax rate or the assessed valuation of the Property is fixed for the then current year, the apportionment of taxes shall be based on the most current and accurate billing information available. Should such proration not be based on the actual amount of the taxes for the period in question and should such proration prove to be inaccurate upon receipt of the actual bills for the Property, then, to the extent such amount exceeds One Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,000.00), either Seller or Purchaser may demand within one (1) year after Closing a payment from the other party correcting such malapportionment.

(c) Seller shall be entitled to receive refunds for any and all deposits which Seller has made with utility companies, and Purchaser shall replace such deposits at Closing.

RISK OF LOSS

7.1 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, action is initiated to take the Land and Improvements, or part thereof, by eminent domain proceedings or by deed in lieu thereof (each a “Taking”), which Taking will (i) cause the Property to no longer comply with zoning requirements affecting the Property, (ii) affect the Property’s access to a publicly-dedicated and maintained right-of-way for vehicular and pedestrian access

or affect parking at the Property, (iii) have a material adverse effect on the continued operation of the Property, or (iv) be in excess of $500,000.00, then Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing, by written notice to Seller, elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Seller’s assignable right, title and interest in and to the award of the condemning authority shall be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser of a Taking affecting the Property.

7.2 Casualty. If the Improvements, or any part thereof, suffers any damage equal to or in excess of $500,000 prior to the Closing from fire or other casualty, Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing, by written notice to Seller, elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder, other than the Surviving Obligations, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage, shall be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price (except, however, Purchaser shall receive at Closing a credit equal to Seller’s deductible and the cost of repair of any uninsured damage). If the Improvements, or any part thereof, suffers any damage less than $500,000 prior to the Closing, Purchaser agrees that it will consummate the Closing and accept the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price (except, however, Purchaser shall receive at Closing a credit equal to Seller’s deductible and the cost of repair of any uninsured damage). Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser of any fire or casualty at the Property.

8.
DEFAULT

8.1 Breach by Seller. In the event that Seller shall fail to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, at law or in equity, to either (i) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than the Surviving Obligations; or (ii) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that any suit for specific performance must be brought within one hundred twenty (120) days of Seller’s default, to the extent permitted by law, Purchaser waiving the right to bring suit at any later date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller willfully defaults in its obligation to sell and convey the Property to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the remedy of specific performance as provided in clause (ii) above is not available to Purchaser because Seller has sold or conveyed the Property to another party, then Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be to proceed pursuant to clause (i) above and Seller shall pay to Purchaser the actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with the transactions described in this Agreement, including, without limitation, expenses paid (A) to Purchaser’s attorneys in connection with negotiation of this Agreement and matters related thereto, including, without limitation, costs associated with due diligence matters and any verifiable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Purchaser with respect to due diligence activities, including, without limitation, travel costs and expenses, (B) to Lender and/or KeyCorp as an application or loan assumption fee or other non-refundable fee, attorney fees for Lender and/or KeyCorp in connection with the Loan Assumption and any and all other fees and expenses incurred by Lender and/or KeyCorp with respect to the Loan Assumption which are payable by Purchaser, and (C) to third party consultants in connection with the performance of examinations, inspections and/or investigations pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement confers no present right, title or interest in the Property to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees not to file a lis pendens or other similar notice against the Property except in connection

with, and after, the filing of a suit for specific performance or in accordance with the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 8.1 to the contrary, in no event shall Seller be liable to reimburse Purchaser for costs and expenses as described in this Section 8.1 in excess of $500,000.00 in the aggregate.

8.2 Breach by Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Seller’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may terminate this Agreement and thereupon shall be entitled to the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty). Seller and Purchaser have made this provision for liquidated damages because it would be difficult to calculate, on the date hereof, the amount of actual damages for such breach, and Seller and Purchaser agree that these sums represent a reasonable forecast of such damages.

8.3 Notice and Opportunity to Cure. Seller and Purchaser each agree to provide the other party with written notice of any default by the other party under this Agreement, and a period of five (5) business days following the other party’s receipt of such notice within which to cure such default; provided, however, that no such notice and opportunity to cure shall be applicable with respect to a party’s failure to timely close, nor shall any such notice and cure period extend beyond the Closing Date.
