3.02 Limitation on Liability.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Delaware Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company or any Subsidiary, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company or such Subsidiary, and no Member shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company, solely by reason of being a member of the Company. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Delaware Act or as provided in Section 11.01(b) hereof, but subject to the provisions of subparagraph (b) of this Section 3.02, the liability of each Member shall be limited to the amount of Capital Contributions required to be made by such Member in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, but only when and to the extent the same shall become due and payable pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Further, no general or limited partner of any Member, Managing Member, shareholder, member or other holder of any equity interest of any Member, Managing Member or any officer, director or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates shall be obligated personally for any debt, obligation or other liability of the Company or any Subsidiary solely by reason of their being a general or limited partner of any Member, Managing Member, shareholder or member or other holder of any equity interest of any Member, Managing Member or officer, director or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates. Further, failure of the Company or any Subsidiary to observe any corporate or other formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or the management of its business or affairs under either this Agreement, any Subsidiary Operating Agreement or the Delaware Act shall not be grounds for any Member, Managing Member, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder or member or other holder of any equity interest of any Member, Managing Member or any officer, director or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates to be held liable or obligated for any debt, obligation or other liability of the Company or any Subsidiary.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including the provisions of Section 11.01(b) hereof), (i) each Member’s liability under this Agreement is explicitly limited to the assets of such Member, and (ii) neither the Company nor any Member shall have any recourse against any assets of an Affiliate of another Member or any past, present or future officers, agents, shareholders, incorporators, directors, principals (direct or indirect), affiliates, partners, members or representatives of another Member or any of the assets or property of any of the foregoing, for the payment or collection of any amount, judgment, judicial process, arbitration award, fees or costs or for any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this Agreement.

(c) In accordance with Section 18-1101 of the Delaware Act, no Member, by virtue of its status or actions as a Member or as Managing Member, shall have any fiduciary duty to any other Member or to the Company, and any such fiduciary duty that would otherwise exist under the Delaware Act or applicable law is hereby disclaimed and eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware Act and applicable law.

(d) The provisions of this Section 3.02 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

3.03 Third-Party Debt Liability. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06, the parties intend that no Member, or any of its Affiliates, shall have any liability under or in connection with any third-party debt, including liability with regard to any environmental matters, recourse carve-outs, fraud, intentional misconduct, theft or other commonly called “bad acts” or with regard to any other matter, unless otherwise approved by the Members or pursuant to an agreement entered into by such Member.

Any provision to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, any decision to be taken or approval to be granted by GKK in connection with the Company (or otherwise in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement) shall, for all purposes under this Agreement, be deemed effective only if approved by either (i) a majority of the GKK Corp directors who are deemed independent from SLG Corp or (ii) a subcommittee of directors designated by such independent directors, in either case after such consultations among themselves and with any members of the credit committee of the GKK as such independent directors deem necessary. For the purposes of this Section 3.04, a GKK Corp director will be deemed independent from SLG if such director would not be considered an “interested director” under Delaware law or Section 4350 of NASD’s marketplace listing rules in connection with a transaction between GKK Corp and SLG Corp.

IV. CAPITAL

4.01 Initial Capital Contributions.

(a) Due Diligence Costs. The SLG Member and its Affiliates have heretofore incurred, and may hereafter incur, third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with their due diligence analyses and other evaluations of the Property and the potential acquisition of a separate property located at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx xx Xxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx (the “Potential Property”), including, without limitation, engineering and feasibility costs and expenses and costs and expenses related to or associated with analyzing the Property and the Potential Property (collectively, the “Contract and Due Diligence Costs”; such costs shall not include cost allocable to the Residential Component or legal fees and disbursements incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the schedules and exhibits hereto and any other document entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby) as set forth on Schedule 4.01(a). The Contract and Due Diligence Costs shall be reduced by the amount of any reimbursed costs and expenses received from SITQ by the SLG member or its Affiliates. On the date of execution of this Agreement, each Member hereof shall contribute its pro rata share of the Contract and Due Diligence Costs, based on its respective Percentage Interest. If the SLG Member and its Affiliates have, in the aggregate, contributed more than the SLG Member’s Percentage Interest of the Contract and Due Diligence Costs, then the Company shall, upon the execution of this

Agreement, refund to the SLG Member an amount equal to the excess of: (i) the amount the SLG Member and its Affiliates, in the aggregate, contributed as the Contract and Due Diligence Cost, above (ii) the product of (A) the Contract and Due Diligence Costs multiplied by (B) the SLG Member’s Percentage Interest.

(b) Closing Date Contributions. Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Members shall contribute in cash to the capital of the Company their pro rata share (based upon their respective Percentage Interests) of any amount by which the uses of funds set forth on Schedule 4.01(b) attached hereto exceeds the net proceeds of the Acquisition Financing funded prior to or concurrent with such contributions. It is expected that, on the Closing Date, the Members shall make the following approximate cash contributions to the capital of the Company (taking into account deposits made under the Purchase Agreement and Contract and Due Diligence Costs):

SLG Member		$	76,500,000
GKK Member		$	62,600,000

(c) Other Contributions. In addition to the cash contributions described in Sections 4.01(a),(b) and (c), on the Closing Date, the SLG Member shall (i) acquire from 1 Madison Venture LLC and Column and contribute to the Company (for further contribution to the Fee LLC) its rights under the Purchase Agreement to the extent allocable to the Property (inclusive of all deposits made thereunder allocable to the Property) and (ii) acquire from SLG and contribute to the Company (for further contribution to the Fee LLC) the Financing Commitment (inclusive of all deposits’ made thereunder) and all related rate-lock and interest rate hedging commitments entered into in connection therewith.

4.02 Additional Capital Contributions. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(a) of this Agreement, in the event that at any time or from time to time additional funds are required by the Company or any Subsidiary as determined by the Managing Member, either (a) to fund Necessary Expenses in an amount in excess of Initial Capital Contributions, reserves and available cash flow (“Mandatory Capital Contributions”) or (b) to fund any other expense, in an amount in excess of Initial Capital Contributions, reserves and available cash flow (“Agreed Capital Contributions”), then the Managing Member shall request that the Members make such Additional Capital Contribution to the Company on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Members’ respective Percentage Interest. The Members shall have five (5) Business Days from the request by the Managing Member to contribute their pro rata share of Mandatory Capital Contributions (based on their relative Percentage Interest). To the extent approved by the Members, the Members shall have fifteen (15) Business Days from the request by the Managing Member to contribute their pro rata share of Agreed Capital Contributions based on their relative Percentage Interests. For the avoidance of doubt, Members do not have the right

to approve Mandatory Capital Contributions but do have the right to approve Agreed Capital Contributions.

4.03 Capital Contributions and Remedies.

(a) All Capital Contributions or advances required by or provided for in this Article IV shall be made by wire transfer of funds to the Company account designated by the Managing Member, and any reimbursements or distributions to any Member required by or provided in this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer of funds to such account as designated by such Member or other means mutually acceptable or then commonly used for the receipt and distribution of proceeds in major commercial transactions.

(b) If either Member (the “Non-Contributing Member”) fails to timely make any Capital Contribution (or any portion thereof) required pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02 hereof, and the other Member (the “Contributing Member”) has made its pro rata share of such Capital Contribution, then subject to the provisions of Sections 4.03(e) hereof, the Contributing Member may cause any one (but only one) of the following actions to be taken by delivery of notice to such effect to the Company and the Non-Contributing Member:

(i) The Contributing Member may advance the Non-Contributing Member’s pro rata share of Mandatory Capital Contribution up to an amount of $1,000,000 outstanding at any time, and the Contributing Member may designate all or any portion of such Mandatory Capital Contributions made by the Contributing Member in respect of the related request therefor (including both the Contributing Member’s and the Non-Contributing Member’s pro rata portion thereof) as a “Priority Member Advance” (provided, however, such Priority Member Advance will be considered and treated as Capital Contributions for federal income tax purposes); or

(ii) The Contributing Member may contribute the Non-Contributing Member’s pro rata share of such requested or required Capital Contributions and elect to decrease the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member (but not below zero) such that, immediately after such decrease, the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member shall be a percentage equal to the Percentage Interest immediately prior to such decrease, less a percentage expressed as a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the Capital Contribution that such Member failed to contribute, and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the Capital Contributions (other than those characterized as Priority Member Advances) made by all of the Members prior to or as of such default (including the applicable Additional Capital Contributions), and concomitantly, the Percentage Interest of the Contributing Member shall be increased by the same amount. An example of the operation of such calculation is set forth on Exhibit F attached hereto; or

(iii) The Contributing Member may withdraw its share of such requested or required Capital Contribution.

(d) [Intentionally omitted.]

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any Member fails to timely make any Capital Contribution (or any portion thereof) requested or required pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02 hereof and the resulting exercise of any remedy in this Agreement results in the immediate or future imposition of a transfer tax on the Company (or any Member thereof) or any Subsidiary, the Member that failed to make such Capital Contribution under Sections 4.01 or 4.02 of this Agreement, shall be liable for and shall be obligated to directly pay any such transfer tax (and such payment shall not be deemed to be a Capital Contribution and shall have no effect upon the allocation provisions or any other equity provisions of this Agreement).

(f) Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the other Member would not be entering into this Agreement were it not for (i) the Members agreeing to make the Capital Contributions provided for in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 of this Agreement, and (ii) the remedy provisions provided for herein. Each Member acknowledges and agrees that in the event any Member fails to make its Capital Contributions pursuant to this Agreement, the other Member will suffer substantial damages and the remedy provisions set forth above are fair, just and equitable in all respects and administratively superior to any other method for determining such damages. Each Member hereby agrees that in the event its Interest in the Company is reduced as described above, it shall execute and deliver such conveyances, agreements, instruments or other documents which may be reasonably necessary in the judgment of the other Member to confirm and render fully effective the remedy provisions set forth above, including, but not limited to, an assignment of a portion of its Interest in the Company and any amendments to this Agreement or to the Certificate of Formation.

4.04 Capital Accounts. A separate Capital Account will be maintained for each Member in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Consistent therewith, the Capital Account of each Member will be determined and adjusted as follows:

(a) Each Member’s Capital Account will be credited with:

(i) Any contributions of cash made by such Member to the capital of the Company and any advances of cash made by such Member as Priority Member Advances plus the Book Basis of any property contributed by such Member to the capital of the Company (net of any liabilities to which such property is subject or which are assumed by the Company);

(ii) The Member’s distributive share of Net Profit and items thereof; and

(iii) Any other increases required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).

(b) Each Member’s Capital Account will be debited with:

(i) Any distributions of cash made from the Company to such Member (including all amounts paid or distributed pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.03 hereof) plus the fair market value of any property distributed in kind to such Member (net of any liabilities to which such property is subject or which are assumed by such Member);

(ii) The Member’s distributive share of Net Loss and items thereof; and

(iii) Any other decreases required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).

The provisions of this Section 4.04 relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts have been included in this Agreement to comply with Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and will be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with those provisions. In the event the Tax Matters Partner shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts or any debts or credits thereto (including, without limitation, debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company or any Members) are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Managing Member may make such modification, provided that it is not likely to have a material effect on the amounts distributed to any Member pursuant to Section 6.04 hereof upon the dissolution of the Company.

4.05 No Further Capital Contributions. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or with the prior written consent of all the Members, no Member shall be required or entitled to contribute any other or further capital to the Company, nor shall any Member be required or entitled to loan any funds to the Company (provided, however, that for these purposes, amounts properly incurred by a Member which are reimbursable by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed loans). No Member will have any obligation to restore any negative or deficit balance in its Capital Account upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company (and for purposes of this Section 4.05, Capital Account shall be deemed to also include the capital account of any Member for financial or book purposes or as set forth in the Delaware Act or under common law). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained herein will, or is intended or will be deemed to benefit any creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary or any creditor of any

Member, and no such creditor shall have any rights, interests or claims hereunder, be entitled to any benefits or be entitled to require the Company or any Member to demand, solicit or accept any loan, advance or Additional Capital Contribution for or to the Company or any Subsidiary or to enforce any rights which the Company, any Subsidiary or any Member may have against any other Member or which any Member may have against the Company or Subsidiary, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

4.06 Financing. To the extent so required in any third-party financing obtained by the Company or a Subsidiary, the Managing Member shall endeavor to obtain the agreement of such lender in respect of such financing such that each Member shall have the obligation to enter into and deliver (or cause to be entered into and delivered by creditworthy affiliates of such Member acceptable to such lender): (i) customary exceptions-to-non-recourse guarantees relating to, and only to, the acts or omissions of such Member and its Affiliates; (ii) payment guarantees; and (iii) other customary guarantees so required by such lender. The Members shall enter into a Reimbursement and Indemnity Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto in connection with any such third-party financing.

4.07 Book Basis Adjustments. The Book Basis of all assets will be adjusted to equal their respective fair market values upon the events set forth in Treasury Regulation § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(i) and (ii).

V. INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY

5.01 Percentage Interests. With regard to each Member separately, the initial Percentage Interest of each Member will be as set forth in Section 1.01 hereof (in each case, subject to adjustment as provided in this Agreement). The Percentage Interests of the Members may be adjusted only as set forth in this Agreement.

5.02 Return of Capital. No Member shall be liable for the return of the Capital Contributions (or any portion thereof) of any other Member, it being expressly understood and agreed that any such return shall be made solely from the assets of the Company. No Member shall be entitled to withdraw or receive a return of any part of its Capital Contributions or Capital Account, to receive interest on its Capital Contributions or Capital Account or to receive any distributions from the Company, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement or under applicable law (and for purposes of this Section 5.02, Capital Account shall be deemed to also include the capital account of any Member for financial or book purposes or as set forth in the Delaware Act or under common law).

5.03 Ownership. All assets of the Company shall be owned by the Company, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

5.04 Waiver of Partition; Nature of Interests in the Company. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, each of the Members hereby irrevocably waives any right or power that such Member might have:

(b) To cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary;

(c) To compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to any applicable law; or

(d) To file a complaint or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity, to cause the termination, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary.

No Member shall have any interest in any specific assets of the Company (including the Property).

VI. ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

6.01 Allocations.

6.02 Special Allocations and Compliance with Section 704(b). The following special allocations shall, except as otherwise provided, be made in the following order:

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain or in any Member Minimum Gain during any taxable year of the Company, prior to any other allocation pursuant hereto, such Member shall be specially allocated items of Profit for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount and manner required by Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) or 1.704-2(i)(4). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2.

(b) Items of Profit shall be allocated to each Member receiving distributions pursuant to Section 6.03(a) hereof until the aggregate items of Profit allocated to such Member under this Section 6.02(b) is equal to the aggregate amount theretofore distributed (and immediately available for distribution) pursuant to such clause (other than amounts constituting a return of capital with respect to Priority Member Advances).

(c) Any Member who unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) which causes or increases a negative balance in his or its adjusted Capital Account shall be allocated items of Profit sufficient to eliminate such increase or negative balance caused thereby, as quickly as possible, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulation.

(f) No allocation of Loss or Net Loss shall be made to any Member if, as a result of such allocation, such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.

6.03 Distributions. Except as provided in Section 6.04, and subject to Sections 6.05, 6.10 and 9.05 hereof, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practical (but no less often than quarterly), make distributions or payments of Net Cash Flow (to the extent and if available) to the Members in the following manner and order of priority:

(a) First, an amount of such Net Cash Flow shall be paid (in the order and priority set forth below), to the Members until each of the Members has received payments of Net Cash Flow, pursuant to this Section 6.03(a) hereof, in an aggregate amount (for the current period and all previous periods) equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of its Priority Member Advances made pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) a cumulative return thereon compounded quarterly, at a rate equal to six percent (6%) per annum over the Contributing Member’s cost of funds calculated based on such Member’s then-existing credit lines (with payments made pursuant to this Section 6.03(b) deemed to be made first with respect to the interest described in clause (ii) hereof and then with respect to the aggregate amount of such aggregate Priority Member Advances described in clause (i) hereof); and

(b) Thereafter, any remaining Net Cash Flow shall be distributed to the Members pro rata in accordance with and in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.03 of this Agreement.

6.04 Distributions in Liquidation.

With the approval of the Managing Member, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members under the preceding sentence may be distributed to a trust established (for the benefit of the Members) for the purposes of liquidating Company and Subsidiary assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company or any Subsidiary and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company and the Subsidiaries arising out of or in connection with the Company or the Subsidiaries. The assets of any trust established under this Section 6.04 will be distributed to the Members from time to time by the trustee of the trust upon approval of the Managing Member in the same proportions as the amount distributed to the trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Members under this Agreement.

6.05 [Intentionally omitted.]

6.06 Tax Matters. The Members intend for the Company to be treated as a partnership under the Code.

The Members shall each take reporting positions on their respective federal, state and local income tax returns consistent with the positions determined for the Company by the Managing Member.

Company and the Book Basis of such property. The Company shall use the “traditional method” without curative allocations.

6.09 REIT Status. The Members agree to manage the Company (and cause the Company to manage any other entity in which the Company owns an interest) in a manner which enables each Member to qualify as a REIT and which complies with the income, asset and operating requirements of the Code which are applicable to a REIT. In connection therewith, the Members and the Managers shall act in a manner consistent with that required by applicable law to effect such compliance.

The fees for services from such third parties shall be included in any proposed budget and subject to approval in accordance with Section 7.01(d)(xi), and shall not exceed the prevailing competitive fees being charged for such services for similar properties in the market where the Property is located.

Within thirty (30) calendar days of the delivery of a Major Decision Deadlock Notice, the GKK Member may deliver a written notice as described below (the “Buy-Sell Notice”) to the SLG Member, as set forth below.

(b) The Buy-Sell Notice shall be signed by the GKK Member and shall state the amount at which the GKK Member values the Property and all other assets of the Company (the “Buy-Sell Value”).

(c) Within such thirty (30) calendar day period, a copy of the Buy-Sell Notice shall be delivered to the Company Accountant who shall, within five (5) Business Days, determine and notify the Members of the amount each Member would receive if all Company assets were sold for the Buy-Sell Value (less deductions therefrom for normal and customary charges and expenses incurred in connection with the sale of real estate in New York City, which shall be imputed, if not actually incurred, including, without limitation, broker’s commissions, transfer taxes, if applicable, and other closing costs), all liabilities of the Company and each Subsidiary (including any loans by any such Member to the Company or any Subsidiary) were paid in full, and the remaining proceeds were distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 6.04 (the “Member Buy/Sell Proceeds”).

Failure of the SLG Member to give the GKK Member notice of the SLG’s Election shall be deemed, upon the expiration of such 30-day period, to be an Election to sell under Section 8.01(d)(i).

(e) Contemporaneously with the SLG Member’s Election or deemed Election, the purchasing Member shall (i) have the right to direct the Managing Member on behalf of the Company and otherwise make decisions on behalf of the Company with respect to (1) the day-to-day operations of the Company that would otherwise require direction by the Managing Member, (2) the decisions of the Company that are referred to in Exhibit D to this Agreement and (3) any Major Decisions other than those identified in (i)-(iv) of Section 8.01(a); provided, however, prior to the closing of the purchase under this Section 8.01, all such direction and decisions shall be consistent with past practices of the Company and be in the ordinary course of the Company’s business, and (ii) deposit in escrow with a bank or other financial institution selected by the selling Member as escrowee an xxxxxxx money deposit in cash in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) multiplied by the purchase price to be paid in connection with such purchase, and, if such purchasing Member fails to close such purchase as provided in this Section 8.01(e), then the selling Member may retain such deposit and either elect to purchase all of the right, title and interest of the purchasing Member in and to its Interest in the Company and interest in the Subsidiaries, if applicable, and in any loans to the Company and the Subsidiaries, for a cash purchase price equal to ninety percent (90%) of the applicable Member Buy/Sell Proceeds, or exercise any other rights or remedies available at law or in equity, including the rights set forth in Article XIII hereof. All closings of any purchase and sale under this Section 8.01 will be held at the Company’s principal office and shall take place no later than that date which is 45 calendar days after the later of the SLG Member’s Election or deemed Election.

(f) [Intentionally omitted.]

If the purchasing Member defaults under this Section 8.01, it shall have no right to make any future Buy-Sell Notice hereunder. No Buy-Sell Notice may be made until all periods for making elections and performing obligations under any previous Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall have terminated.

(h) Any Member may freely assign its rights and obligations pursuant to this Section 8.01 to an wholly-owned Affiliate by delivering notice of such assignment to the other Member, provided that the assigning Member shall remain liable for any and all obligations of its assignee, as if such Member had not assigned its rights pursuant to this Section 8.01(f).

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the provisions of Section 10.02(d) of this Agreement have been initiated by any Member, then no Member

may initiate the provisions of this Section 8.01 until the procedures set forth in Article X have been completed or terminated pursuant to the terms thereof.

8.02 Call Provision.

(a) At any time and from time to time, unless (i) a Major Decision Deadlock Notice has been delivered and the thirty (30) calendar day period during which the GKK Member has a right to deliver a Buy-Sell Notice has yet to expire or (ii) the GKK Member has delivered a Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 8.01 and the purchasing Member in connection therewith has not defaulted in respect thereof (as contemplated by Section 8.1(g)), the SLG Member shall have the right at any time, upon at least thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice (the “Call Notice”), to cause all or a portion of the Interest of the GKK Member (and any Member, or other permitted transferee in accordance with Article X, whose interest derives from the initial Interest of the GKK Member) to be redeemed by the Company or purchased by the SLG Member or its Affiliate in full. The redemption or purchase price, as the case may be, shall be equal to the amount that would have been distributed to such Member if the Property and all other assets of the Company had been sold at the then-fair-market value thereof (less deductions therefrom for normal and customary charges and expenses incurred in connection with the sale of real estate in New York City, which shall be imputed, if not actually incurred, including, without limitation, broker’s commissions, transfer taxes, if applicable, and other closing costs), and the proceeds of such sale, after paying all debts and liabilities of the Company, were distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 6.03 hereof; provided that, if such exercise occurs after the expiration of the term of the lease of the Property to CSFB, the redemption or purchase price (as the case may be) payable to such Member shall be not less than the value of such Member’s Capital Account in the Company as determined in accordance with Section 4.04 and the books and records of the Company. Unless the SLG Member and the GKK Member agree upon the fair market value of the Property and the other assets of the Company (the “Call Provision FMV”)(which agreements shall be as determined or approved by the independent members of the Boards of Directors of SLG and GKK), the Call Provision FMV shall be determined based on an independent third-party appraiser’s determination of the Call Provision FMV. Such appraiser shall be selected as follows: the SLG Member and the GKK Member shall each promptly choose an independent appraiser (“SLG’s Appraiser” and “GKK’s Appraiser,” respectively), each of which shall not have performed or been engaged to perform any appraisal or valuation services for the Company, SLG or GKK (or any of their respective Affiliates) within the then-preceding three (3) years. All appraisers shall be MAI appraisers and have at least ten (10) years experience in commercial real estate valuation. If the lower of the two (2) appraisals so obtained is not less than ninety percent (90%) of the higher of such two (2) appraisals, the average of such two (2) appraisals shall be the Call Provision FMV. In the lower of the two (2) appraisals so obtained is less than ninety percent (90%) of the higher of such two (2) appraisals, then SLG’s Appraiser and GKK’s Appraiser shall promptly select a third appraiser (the “Third Appraiser”), who shall promptly select the Call Provision FMV from

either the amount stated by either the SLG Appraiser or the GKK Appraiser and the Third Appraiser shall have no discretion to select an amount different from either thereof. Such selection shall be binding upon the parties and shall immediately thereafter be the Call Provision FMV for all purposes under this Agreement. If SLG’s Appraiser and GKK’s Appraiser cannot agree on the selection of the Third Appraiser, such Third Appraiser shall be selected as provided by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association as in effect on the date hereof for selection of “arbitrators” in comparable situations. The cost of the appraisals shall be an expense of the Company.

(b) Upon delivery of the Call Notice under Section 8.02(a), the SLG Member shall have the right to make direct the Managing Member on behalf of the Company and otherwise make all decisions on behalf of the Company with respect to (A) the day-to-day operations of the Company that would otherwise require direction by the Managing Member, (B) the decisions of the Company that are referred to in Exhibit D to this Agreement and (C) any and all Major Decisions. In the event of a transfer if any Interest by the GKK Member to a Prohibited Transferee or other breach or violation of Article X of this Agreement, the applicable redemption price payable by the SLG Member to the GKK Member under Section 8.02(a) shall be reduced to an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the Call Provision FMV.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the SLG Member shall have the right to invoke the provisions of this Section 8.02 even if the parties are engaged in mandatory arbitration pursuant to Section 13.16 of this Agreement.

8.03 Termination of Other Agreements. If any Member’s Interest is purchased under this Article VIII or the corresponding provisions of any Subsidiary Operating Agreement, all other agreements with such Member or its Affiliates will (at the election of the purchasing Member) be terminated on the date such Member’s Interest is purchased.

X. TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

10.01 No Transfer.

(a) Except as expressly permitted or contemplated by this Agreement: (i) no Member may sell, assign, give, hypothecate, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer (“Transfer”), directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its Interest without the prior written consent of the other Members (which may be withheld or granted in the sole discretion of such other Members); (ii) GKK may not Transfer, directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its equity interest in the GKK Member

without the prior written consent of the SLG Member, which may be withheld or granted in the sole discretion of the SLG Member; (iii) SLG may not Transfer, directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its indirect equity interest in the SLG Member without the prior written consent of the GKK Member, which may be withheld or granted in the sole discretion of the GKK Member; and (iv) no Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Interest to a Prohibited Transferee.

(b) Any Transfer in contravention of clause (i) through clause (iv) of Section 10.01(a) above shall be null and void. No Member, without the prior written consent of the other Member, may resign from the Company, except as a result of such Member’s involuntary dissolution or final adjudication as bankrupt or in connection with a permitted Transfer.

10.02 Permitted Transfers.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.02 and Section 10.05, the GKK Member may, from time to time and in its sole discretion, without the consent of the SLG Member, sell or assign its Interest in whole or in part to any wholly owned and controlled Affiliate of the GKK Member, provided such transferee agrees to be bound by all the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement (including the provisions of this Article X). In addition, the GKK Member may, from time to time, sell or assign up to forty-nine percent (49%) of its Interest in the Company to a Qualified Institutional Transferee approved by the SLG Member (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that the GKK Member retains all voting and decision-making authority with respect to such transferred Interest.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.05, the SLG Member may, from time to time and in its sole discretion, without the consent of the GKK Member, sell or assign its Interest in whole or in part to any wholly owned and controlled Affiliate of SLG, provided such transferee agrees to be bound by all the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement (including the provisions of this Article X). In connection with the foregoing, the SLG Member shall have the absolute right to designate any wholly owned and controlled Affiliate transferee as a Member (including the Managing Member). In addition, the SLG Member may, from time to time, sell or assign up to forty-nine percent (49%) of its Interest in the Company to a Qualified Institutional Transferee approved by the GKK Member (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that the SLG Member retains all voting and decision-making authority with respect to such transferred Interest.

(c) Any permitted Transfer pursuant to subsection (a) or subsection (b) above shall not relieve the transferor of any of its obligations prior to such Transfer. Subject to Sections 10.03 and 10.04, any transferee pursuant to this Section 10.02 shall become a substitute Member of the Company and each Member and its permitted transferee(s) shall be treated as one Member for all purposes of this Agreement. Except as set forth in the last sentence of Section 10.02(b) hereof, the provisions of this Section 10.02

will not apply to or be deemed to authorize or permit any collateral transfer of, or grant of a security interest in, a Member’s interest in the Company, or in any Company property (which transfer or grant shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement).

(d) (i) Subject to the limitations on transfer as set forth in Section 10.02(a) and (b), in the event either member (the “Transferring Member”) receives a written bona fide offer from a third party that is not an Affiliate of said Member to purchase all or a portion of its Interest (the “Target Interest”) and said Member desires to Transfer all or a part of its Target Interest pursuant to the terms of said bona fide offer (“Acceptable Transfer Terms”), the Transferring Member shall deliver to the other Member (the “Non-Transferring Member”) notice of the terms of such Acceptable Transfer Terms (“Transfer ROFR Notice”), including the proposed cash purchase price, other economic terms and conditions and all other material terms and conditions of such Acceptable Transfer Terms, and shall include a true and correct copy thereof. At any time within forty-five (45) calendar days after the date the Non-Transferring Member receives the Transfer ROFR Notice (the “Transfer Response Period”), the Non-Transferring Member shall have the right, exercisable by delivery of notice in writing (the “Transfer Election”) to the Transferring Member, to either:

(A) approve the Acceptable Transfer Terms and authorize the Transferring Member to attempt to sell or dispose of the Target Interest in accordance with the Acceptable Transfer Terms; or

(B) elect to purchase all of the Target Interest for a cash purchase price as set forth in the Acceptable Transfer Terms (including any assumption of debt, if applicable) and subject to no other terms and conditions.

(ii) Any election pursuant to subparagraph (B) of Section 10.02(d)(i) above, shall be made by (1) delivering to the Transferring Member the Transfer Election, which shall affirmatively state that the Non-Transferring Member is exercising such option, and (2) depositing in an escrow account at a bank or other financial institution selected by the Transferring Member (the “Transfer Escrow Agent”), a deposit equal to five percent (5%) of the purchase price (the “Transfer Escrow Deposit”) (as set forth in the applicable Acceptable Transfer Terms). In such event, (or in the event of a deemed election to permit a sale pursuant to Section 10.02(d)(iii) below) the Non-Transferring Member and the Transferring Member shall close the purchase of the Target Interest and the Transferring Member shall assign the Target Interest to the Non-Transferring Member or to a designee of the Non-Transferring Member on the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer ROFR Notice, against receipt of payment of the cash portion of the purchase price and assumption of any debt as aforesaid.

All closings of any purchase and sale under this Section 10.02(d) will be held at the Company’s principal office and will take place on the closing date set forth in the applicable Acceptable Transfer Terms.

(iii) If at the expiration of the Transfer Response Period the Non-Transferring Member neither (A) authorizes the Transferring Member to sell the applicable Target Interest as provided in Section 10.02(d)(i)(A) above, or (B) elects to purchase the Target Interest of the Transferring Member by following the procedures in Section 10.02(d)(i)(B) above, then the Non-Transferring Member shall be deemed to have authorized and have approved a Transfer of the Target Interest (subject to Sections 10.02(a) and 10.02(b) hereof) pursuant to Section 10.02(d)(i)(A) hereof, for a purchase price not less than the purchase price set forth in the Acceptable Transfer Terms, and otherwise pursuant to such other terms, conditions and provisions as are determined appropriate in the reasonable discretion of the Transferring Member. In the event the Non-Transferring Member authorizes or is deemed to have authorized the Transfer of the applicable Target Interest pursuant to the terms described above, and the Transferring Member thereafter receives a bona fide offer for the purchase of the Target Interest from any party for a purchase price which is at least equal to the purchase price set forth in the Acceptable Transfer Terms, other than as set forth below in subparagraph (iv) below, the Transferring Member may consummate the sale of the Target Interest on such terms, without the requirement of any consent or approval of the Members; provided, the Transferring Member shall have entered into a binding contract for the transfer of the Target Interest within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the date on which the Non-Transferring Member authorized or was deemed to have authorized such transfer, and such transfer must be consummated within the closing date set forth in the Transfer ROFR Notice. The failure of the Transferring Member to enter into such binding contract within the 180-day period referred to in the immediately preceding sentence or the failure of such transfer to occur within such closing period shall require the Transferring Member to again deliver to the Non-Transferring Member an additional Transfer ROFR Notice and to again follow the procedures set forth in this Section 10.02(d) hereof prior to any Transfer.

(iv) In the event the Non-Transferring Member Group should default in its obligation to purchase any Target Interest pursuant to the terms of this Section 10.02(d), the following shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for such default: the Interest Transfer Escrow Agent shall immediately deliver to the Transferring Member the Transfer Escrow Deposit (such amount shall not be deemed to be a contribution or distribution of capital, or effect in any way the Capital Account of any Member, the allocation provisions or any other equity provisions of this Agreement).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Member shall Transfer, directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its Interest to a Prohibited Transferee.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the provisions of Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 hereof have been initiated by any Member, then no Member may not initiate the provisions of this Section 10.02 until the procedures set forth in Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 hereof have been completed or terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 hereof.

10.03 Transferees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Transfer of all or any part of any Interest shall be made (a) except in compliance with all applicable securities laws or (b) if such Transfer would violate any loan commitment or agreement or any mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument encumbering all or any portion of the Property or any other asset of the Company. Further, no transferee of all or any portion of any Interest shall be admitted as a substitute Member unless (i) such Interest is transferred in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, (ii) such transferee shall have furnished evidence of satisfaction of the requirements of Section 10.02 hereof, reasonably satisfactory to the remaining Member(s), and (iii) such transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Company such instruments as the remaining Member(s) reasonably deem necessary or desirable to effectuate the admission of such transferee as a Member and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement with respect to such Interest. At the request of any remaining Member, each such transferee shall also cause to be delivered to the Company at the transferee’s sole cost and expense, a favorable opinion of legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the remaining Members, to the effect that (a) such transferee has the legal right, power and capacity to own the Interest proposed to be transferred, (b) such Transfer does not violate any provision of any loan commitment or agreement or any mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument encumbering all or any portion of the Property or any other asset of the Company, and (c) such Transfer does not violate any federal or state security laws and will not cause the Company to become subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As promptly as practicable after the admission of any Person as a Member, the books and records of the Company shall be changed to reflect such admission. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any Transfer of any Interest and, if applicable, the admission of any transferee as a Member shall be paid by such transferee.

10.04 Admission of Additional Members.

(a) No person may be admitted as an additional Member of the Company (in contrast with admission as a substitute Member in connection with a permitted Transfer) without the consent of the Members.

(b) Any additional or substitute Member admitted to the Company shall execute and deliver documentation in form satisfactory to the Members accepting and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement, and such other documentation as the Members shall require in order to effect such Person’s admission as an additional Member. The admission of any Person as an additional Member shall become effective on the date upon which the name of such person is recorded on the books and records of the Company following the consent of the Members to such admission.

10.05 Override on Permitted Transfers.

(a) It is expressly understood and agreed that any Transfer permitted pursuant to this Article X shall in all instances be prohibited (and, if consummated, shall be void ab initio) if such Transfer does not comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and other requirements of governmental authorities, including, without limitation, Executive Order 13224 (September 23, 2001), the rules and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of Treasury, and any enabling legislation or other Executive Orders in respect thereof.

(b) Each admitted Member shall be required to make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 13.01(a) of this Agreement to the other Member(s) and the Company as of the date of such Member’s admission into the Company. Each Member shall be deemed to make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 13.01(a)(ix)-(xii) of this Agreement to the Members and the Company on behalf of any Person that acquires a beneficial ownership interest in such Member as of the date of such acquisition.

XI. INDEMNIFICATION

11.01 Indemnification.

(a) The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Member and Managing Member and each general or limited partner of any Member and Managing Member, each shareholder, member or other holder of any equity interest in such Member or any officer, director or employee of any of the foregoing (each an “Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Indemnified Party may become subject in connection with any matter arising out of or incidental to any act performed or omitted to be performed by any such Indemnified Party in connection with this Agreement, any Subsidiary Operating Agreement or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s business or affairs, including any action or omission constituting a breach of any fiduciary duties; provided, however, that such act or omission (i) was taken in good faith, was reasonably believed by the applicable Indemnified Party to be in the best interest of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary and was within the scope of authority granted to such Member or applicable Indemnified Party, (ii) was not a transaction for which the Indemnified Party received a personal benefit in violation or

breach of the provisions of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement, (iii) was not attributable in whole or in part to such Indemnified Party’s breach of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement or a knowing violation of law, or (iv) was not attributable in whole or in part to such Indemnified Party’s fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence. If an Indemnified Party becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s business or affairs, the Company shall reimburse such Indemnified Party for its reasonable legal and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the cost of any investigation and defense preparation) as they are incurred in connection therewith, provided that such Indemnified Party shall promptly repay to the Company the amount of any such reimbursed expenses paid to it if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to be indemnified by the Company in connection with such action, proceeding or investigation. If for any reason (other than the fraud, gross negligence, intentional misconduct, breach of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement or a knowing violation of law by such Indemnified Party or a transaction for which such Indemnified Party received a personal benefit in violation or breach of the provisions of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement) the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to such Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and such Indemnified Party on the other hand or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also any other relevant equitable considerations. Any indemnity under this Section 11.01(a) shall be paid solely out of and to the extent of Company assets and shall not be a personal obligation of any Member and in no event will any Member be required or permitted, without the consent of the other Member, to contribute additional capital under Article IV to enable the Company to satisfy any obligation under this Section 11.01.

(b) The provisions of this Section 11.01 shall survive for a period of six years from the date of dissolution of the Company, provided that if at the end of such period there are any actions, proceedings or investigations then pending, an Indemnified Party may so notify the Company and the Members at such time (which notice shall include a brief description of each such action, proceeding or investigation and the liabilities asserted therein) and the provisions of this Section 11.01 shall survive with respect to each such action, proceeding or investigation set forth in such notice (or any related action, proceeding or investigation based upon the same or similar claim) until such date that such action, proceeding or investigation is finally resolved, and the obligations of the Company under this Section 11.01 shall be satisfied solely out of Company assets.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligations of the Company or any Member under this Section 11.01 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company or such Member may otherwise have and inure to the benefit of such Member, its Affiliates and their respective members, directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates and any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of such Persons.

XII. DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

Without limiting, but subject to, the other provisions hereof, the assignment of all or any part of a Member’s Interest permitted hereunder will not result in the dissolution of the Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each Member agrees that, without the consent of the other Member, no Member may withdraw from or cause a voluntary dissolution of the Company or any Subsidiary. In the event any Member withdraws from or causes a voluntary dissolution of the Company or any Subsidiary in contravention of this Agreement, such withdrawal or the causing of a voluntary dissolution shall not affect such Member’s liability for obligations of the Company and the Subsidiaries.

12.02 Termination. In all cases of dissolution of the Company, the business of the Company shall be wound up and the Company terminated as promptly as practicable thereafter, and each of the following shall be accomplished:

(b) The Property and all other assets of the Company shall be liquidated by the Liquidating Member as promptly as possible, but in an orderly and businesslike and commercially reasonable manner and subject to the provisions of the Operating Plan then in effect or a liquidating plan approved by the Managing Member.

(i) To the payment of (A) the debts and liabilities of the Company (including any outstanding amounts due on any indebtedness encumbering the Property and the other assets of the Company, or any part thereof) and (B) the expenses of liquidation.

(ii) To the setting up of any reserves which the Liquidating Member and the Managing Member shall determine to be reasonably necessary for contingent, unliquidated or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Member arising out of or in connection with the Company or any Subsidiary. Such reserves may, in the discretion of the Liquidating Member, be paid over to a national bank or national title company selected by it and authorized to conduct business as an escrowee to be held by such bank or title company as escrowee for the purposes of disbursing such reserves to satisfy the liabilities and obligations described above, and at the expiration of such period as the Liquidating Member may reasonably deem advisable, distributing any remaining balance as provided in Section 12.02(c)(iii) hereof; provided, however, that, to the extent that it shall have been necessary, by reason of applicable law or regulation, to create any reserves prior to any and all distributions which would otherwise have been made under Section 12.02(c)(i) above and, by reason thereof, a distribution under Section 12.02(c)(i) has not been made, then any balance remaining shall first be distributed pursuant to Section 12.02(c)(i) above.

(iii) The balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with Section 6.04 hereof.

12.03 Liquidating Member. The Liquidating Member is hereby irrevocably appointed as the true and lawful attorney in the name, place and stead of each of the Members, such appointment being coupled with an interest, to make, execute, sign, acknowledge and file with respect to the Company and all Subsidiaries all papers which shall be necessary or desirable to effect the dissolution and termination of the Company and each Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Article XII. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Member, upon the request of the Liquidating Member, shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all such documents, certificates and other instruments as the Liquidating Member shall reasonably request to

effectuate the proper dissolution and termination of the Company and each Subsidiary, including the winding up of the business of the Company and each Subsidiary.

13.15 Confidentiality.

(a) The terms of this Agreement and all other business, financial or other information relating directly to the conduct of the business and affairs of the Company or the relative or absolute rights or interests of any of the Members that has not been publicly disclosed pursuant to authorization by the Managing Member (collectively, the “Confidential Information”) is confidential and proprietary information of the Company, the disclosure of which would cause irreparable harm to the Company and the Members. Accordingly, each Member represents that it has not and agrees that it will not and will direct its members, shareholders, partners, directors, officers, agents, advisors and Affiliates not to, disclose to any Person any Confidential Information or confirm any statement made by third Persons regarding Confidential

Information until the Company has publicly disclosed the Confidential Information (which disclosure shall be subject to approval by the Members and the Managing Member and has notified each Member that it has done so; provided, however, that any Member (or its Affiliates) may disclose such Confidential Information (i) if required by law or rule of any stock exchange (it being specifically understood and agreed that anything set forth in a registration statement or any other document filed pursuant to law will be deemed required by law, and provided that before making any disclosure of Confidential Information required by law or rule of any stock exchange, the disclosing Member will notify the other Member and provide it with a copy of the proposed disclosure and an opportunity to comment thereon before the disclosure is made), (ii) in connection with a Transfer of Interests or sale of the Property permitted hereunder, (iii) as reasonably necessary in connection with any transaction authorized pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Agreement, (iv) if necessary for it to perform any of its duties or obligations hereunder or in any property management, leasing, development or construction management agreement to which it is a party covering the Property, or (v) to any its attorneys, accountants, lenders and other professional advisors who agree to maintain a similar confidence.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 13.15(a), each Member agrees not to disclose any Confidential Information to any Person (other than a Person agreeing to maintain all Confidential Information in strict confidence or a judge, magistrate or referee in any action, suit or proceeding relating to or arising out of this Agreement or otherwise), and to keep confidential all documents (including, without limitation, responses to discovery requests) containing any Confidential Information. Each Member hereby consents in advance to any motion for any protective order brought by any other Member represented as being intended by the movant to implement the purposes of this Section 13.15 provided that, if a Member receives a request to disclose any Confidential Information under the terms of a valid and effective order issued by a court or governmental agency and the order was not sought by or on behalf of or consented to by such Member, then such Member may disclose the Confidential Information to the extent required if the Member as promptly as practicable notifies the other Member of the existence, terms and circumstances of the order, consults in good faith with the other Member on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or to narrow the order, and if disclosure of the Confidential Information is required, exercises its best efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the disclosed Confidential Information that the other Member may designate. The cost (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) of obtaining a protective order covering Confidential Information designated by such other Member will be borne by the Company.

(c) The covenants contained in this Section 13.15 will survive the Transfer of the Interest of any Member and the dissolution of the Company.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 13.15 to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent any Member from making such disclosures as are required by applicable law, including, without limitation, Federal or state securities laws.

13.16 Mandatory Arbitration. Except for the Major Decisions described in Section 8.01, any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any dispute regarding a Major Decision that is not resolved in accordance with the Buy-Sell Provision hereof (Section 8.01), shall be resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and its Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection. Any arbitration shall be held in New York, New York before a single independent arbitrator. Such arbitrator (i) shall not have performed or been engaged to perform any services for the Company, SLG or GKK (or any of their respective Affiliates) within the then-preceding three (3) years and (ii) shall have had at least ten (10) years professional experience in commercial real property development or management in New York City, New York. The arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the Members or, if the Members cannot agree on an arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days of the initiation of arbitration, the arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with the AAA’s default rules for the appointment of arbitrators. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice of law considerations, and may grant any remedy or relief he or she deems just and equitable, including, without limitation, provisional, interim, or injunctive relief (in which case the Member granted such provisional, interim, or injunctive relief may seek enforcement thereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, without prejudice to the continued arbitration of the claim or controversy). The award shall be in writing and shall set forth the reasoning on which it is based. The award shall be final, binding, and non-appealable, and judgment upon the award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. Any claim will be time-barred unless arbitration is commenced within one (1) year after the basis for the claim became known to the Member asserting it. This time limit may be tolled by written agreement of the Members. All issues relating to the timeliness of claims shall be resolved by the arbitrator. All matters relating to the enforceability of this arbitration provision and any award shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sec. 1, et seq. The pendency of an arbitration shall not affect the ability of the SLG Member to exercise its rights under the Call Provision hereof, which may be exercised at any time, except as expressly set forth in Section 8.02.

13.17 Broker. Each of the Members represent that neither Member has retained any broker, finder or other commission or fee agent, and no such person has acted on its behalf in connection with the acquisition of the Property, its Interest in the Company or any interest in any Subsidiary or the execution and delivery of

this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement. The Members agree that any brokerage fee, finders fee or similar fee payable to the broker in connection with the acquisition of the Property, its Interest in the Company or any interest in any Subsidiary or the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any Subsidiary Operating Agreement shall be paid by the SLG Member under a separate agreement between the SLG Member and the broker, and that the SLG Member shall indemnify and hold the GKK Member harmless in connection therewith.
