XXXXXXX MONEY
3.1 Deposit and Investment of Xxxxxxx Money. Within two (2) Business Days after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall deposit Twenty-Three Million One Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($23,100,000.00) with Escrow Agent and deliver a completed, executed Form W-9 to the Escrow Agent and the Seller. Within two (2) Business Days after Purchaser has delivered the Due Diligence Waiver Notice to Seller pursuant to Section 4.3.1 hereof, Purchaser shall deposit Twenty-Three Million One Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($23,100,000.00) with Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall invest the Xxxxxxx Money in the Federated Prime Obligations Fund (NASDAQ: POIXX), shall not commingle the Xxxxxxx Money with any funds of Escrow Agent or others, and shall promptly provide Purchaser and Seller with confirmation of the investments made. Such account shall have no penalty for early withdrawal, and Purchaser accepts all risks with regard to the investment of the Xxxxxxx Money. Upon any termination of the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement prior to the closing thereunder except pursuant to Section 4.3.1, Section 4.3.2 or Article X thereof, Seller and Purchaser hereby direct Escrow Agent to immediately add the xxxxxxx money held by Escrow Agent pursuant to the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Harborside Xxxxxxx Money”) to the Xxxxxxx Money and thereafter all references herein to the Xxxxxxx Money shall be deemed to refer to the Xxxxxxx Money as increased by the Harborside Xxxxxxx Money.

-7-
3.4 Disposition of Xxxxxxx Money. The Xxxxxxx Money shall be applied as a credit to the Purchase Price at Closing. However, if this Agreement terminates pursuant to Sections 4.3.1 or 4.3.2, Escrow Agent shall pay the entire Xxxxxxx Money (less the Independent Consideration) to Purchaser one (1) Business Day following the end of the Inspection Period (as long as the current investment can be liquidated and disbursed in one (1) Business Day). No notice to Escrow Agent from Seller shall be required for the release of the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser by Escrow Agent if this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 4.3.1 or 4.3.2. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Purchaser other than pursuant to Section 4.3.1 or 4.3.2, the party (the “Demanding Party”) seeking to terminate this Agreement shall give written notice of such election to Escrow Agent and the other party (the “Non-Demanding Party”) to this Agreement. Upon receipt of any such notice of termination, Escrow Agent shall give notice to the Non-Demanding Party of Escrow Agent’s receipt of such notice, enclosing a copy of the notice in question. If within five (5) Business Days after the Non-Demanding Party is given or deemed to have been given notice of Escrow Agent’s receipt of the notice in question, Escrow Agent has not received from the Non-Demanding Party its notice of objection to the notice, then Escrow Agent shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money as requested by the notice in question, on the sixth (6th) Business Day following its giving of such notice to the Non-Demanding Party.

Seller will not (i) amend or terminate any existing Lease or License Agreement, (ii) consent to the assignment of any Lease or License Agreement, (iii) enter into any new Lease or new License Agreement or (iv) grant its consent, to the extent Seller’s consent is required, to a sublease of the Property, a modification or assignment of a sublease covering the Property, a substitution of the Property covered by the Lease with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company as a result of a Casualty or any other item for which a consent is required under any Lease or License Agreement (the foregoing items (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are each referred to herein as, a “Lease Event”) after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date without first providing Purchaser (a) all relevant supporting documentation, as reasonably determined by Seller, including, without limitation, financial information for the assignee, tenant, subtenant and any guarantor to the extent in Seller’s possession, and (b) as to any Lease Event which is to be executed or granted after the expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller’s request for Purchaser’s approval. If Purchaser’s approval is requested by Seller as to any
-18-
Lease Event, Purchaser shall be held to the same standard for approval as Seller is held to in the document giving rise to such approval or consent right, and Purchaser agrees to give Seller written notice of its approval or disapproval of a proposed Lease Event within three (3) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of the items in Section 6.1.4(a) and Section 6.1.4(b). If Purchaser does not respond to Seller’s request within such time period, then Purchaser will be deemed to have approved such Lease Event. Purchaser’s approval rights and obligations will vary depending on whether such Lease Event is to be executed or granted before or after the expiration of the Inspection Period, as follows:
(1) Purchaser’s approval shall not be required with regard to any Lease Event which is to be executed or granted on or prior to the end of the Inspection Period. If Seller gives Purchaser notice of the execution or grant of a Lease Event during the final three (3) Business Days of the Inspection Period, the Inspection Period will be extended to the third (3rd) Business Day following the date such notice is given to Purchaser.
(2) With respect to a request for approval delivered by Seller to Purchaser for the execution or grant of a Lease Event after the expiration of the Inspection Period, so long as Purchaser has complied with its standard for review described above, Purchaser may withhold its approval in its reasonable discretion, and Seller may not execute or grant such Lease Event without Purchaser’s written approval.
Seller shall not apply any tenant or licensee security deposits on account of any alleged default by any tenant or licensee after the earlier of three (3) Business Days before the end of the Inspection Period and the date when Purchaser has delivered the Due Diligence Waiver Notice to Seller pursuant to Section 4.3.1 hereof unless Seller has terminated the applicable Lease or License Agreement and obtained possession of the demised or licensed premises. All tenant and licensee security deposits collected and not applied by Seller as of the Effective Date are set forth on Schedule 6.1.4. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser three (3) Business Days before the end of the Inspection Period an update to Schedule 6.1.4 to reflect the current amount of all security deposits collected and not applied by Seller as of such date.
6.1.5 Insurance. Seller will not terminate or allow any insurance with respect to the Properties maintained by Seller or its affiliate to lapse unless replaced by equivalent coverage. Promptly upon Purchaser’s delivery of the Due Diligence Waiver Notice to Seller pursuant to Section 4.3.1 hereof, Seller shall name Purchaser as an additional insured on all insurance maintained by Seller or its affiliates with respect to the Properties and shall provide to Purchaser evidence of same.
6.2 Casualty. If after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing any Property is damaged by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Seller shall, promptly upon receiving actual knowledge thereof, notify Purchaser of the same. If, as a result of such Casualty, (a) the tenant of such Property other than the Property commonly known as 0000/0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, XX (the “IBM Property”) is entitled to and elects to terminate its Lease with respect to such Property or (b) International Business Machines (“IBM”) is entitled to and elects to terminate its Lease with respect to the IBM Property (each a “Casualty Tenant Termination
-19-
Event”), then Seller shall promptly upon receiving notice of such Casualty Tenant Termination Event notify Purchaser of the same (a “Casualty Tenant Termination Notice”). Within five (5) days after receipt of the Casualty Tenant Termination Notice (but in no event later than the Closing Date), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s election to either (i) subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9), terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property, in which case the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property, or (ii) to acquire such Property notwithstanding the Casualty Tenant Termination Event. If (i) Purchaser elects to acquire such Property notwithstanding the Casualty Tenant Termination Event or fails to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property within such five (5) day period, or (ii) such Casualty does not give rise to a Casualty Tenant Termination Event, then Purchaser shall proceed to Closing, and as of Closing, (1) Seller shall (A) assign to Purchaser, without representation or warranty by or recourse against Seller, all of Seller’s rights in and to any resulting insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance and rent abatement insurance applicable to any period beginning with the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such Casualty, and (B) provide written confirmation from GECC that such insurance proceeds can be assigned to Purchaser and will be available after Closing to Purchaser to effectuate the needed repairs, (2) Purchaser shall assume full responsibility for all needed repairs (as between Purchaser and Seller, but subject to the terms of the applicable Lease with respect to any rights of the applicable tenant), and (3) Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under such insurance policies to the extent not payable by the applicable tenant under the applicable Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Casualty shall occur to any Property and, as a result of such Casualty, the lender providing the Term Financing Commitment will not close the loan contemplated by the Term Financing Commitment with respect to such Property, GECC will not close the GE Bridge Loan with respect to such Property or GECC or Senior Lender (as applicable) will not close the Bridge Loan with respect to such Property (as applicable pursuant to Section 4.3.2), then, subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9), this Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to such Property and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price of such Property.
6.3 Condemnation. If after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Seller receives notice of, or proceedings are instituted for, eminent domain with respect to any Property or any portion thereof (a “Condemnation”), Seller shall, promptly upon receiving actual knowledge thereof, notify Purchaser of the same. If, as a result of such Condemnation, (a) the tenant of such Property other than the IBM Property is entitled to and elects to terminate its Lease with respect to such Property or (b) IBM is entitled to and elects to terminate its Lease with respect to the IBM Property (each a “Condemnation Tenant Termination Event”), then Seller shall promptly upon receiving notice of such Condemnation Tenant Termination Event notify Purchaser of the same (a “Condemnation Tenant Termination Notice”). Within five (5) days after receipt of the Condemnation Tenant Termination Notice (but in no event later than the Closing Date), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s election to either (i) subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9), terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property, in which case the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property, or (ii) to acquire such Property notwithstanding the Condemnation Tenant Termination Event. If (i) Purchaser elects to acquire such Property notwithstanding the Condemnation Tenant Termination Event or fails to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property within such five (5) day period, or (ii) such Condemnation does not give rise to a Condemnation Tenant Termination Event, then Purchaser shall proceed to Closing, and as of
-20-
Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser, without representation or warranty by or recourse against Seller, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award and resulting insurance proceeds due as a result of such Condemnation (including any rent loss insurance and rent abatement insurance applicable to any period beginning with the Closing Date), and Purchaser shall have the sole right after the Closing (as between Purchaser and Seller, but subject to the terms of the applicable Lease with respect to any rights of the applicable tenant) to negotiate and otherwise deal with the condemning authority in respect of such Condemnation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Condemnation shall occur to any Property and, as a result of such Condemnation, the lender providing the Term Financing Commitment will not close the loan contemplated by the Term Financing Commitment with respect to such Property, GECC will not close the GE Bridge Loan with respect to such Property or Senior Lender will not close the Bridge Loan with respect to such Property (as applicable pursuant to Section 4.3.2), then, subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9), this Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to such Property and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price of such Property.
6.4 Estoppel Certificates/SNDAs.
6.4.1 Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective Date Seller has sent to each tenant (with a copy to Purchaser) to which space in the Improvements is leased a request for an estoppel certificate in the form approved by Purchaser (such estoppel certificates are referred to herein individually as, a “Tenant Estoppel Certificate”) and collectively as, the “Tenant Estoppel Certificates”). Purchaser acknowledges that it has approved the form of each Tenant Estoppel Certificate sent to each tenant as of the Effective Date. Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds in connection with obtaining any such Tenant Estoppel Certificates, declare any default under any Lease or commence any legal action for enforcement of any Lease in order to obtain any such Tenant Estoppel Certificates. Seller shall copy Purchaser on the initial correspondence soliciting the Tenant Estoppel Certificates and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to forward to Purchaser any written communications, including, without limitation, letters, memorandums, e-mails, comments and conditions, received from the tenants in connection with the tenants’ execution of the Tenant Estoppel Certificates. With respect to any executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate dated more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller agrees, upon the request of Purchaser, to send to the tenant who executed such Tenant Estoppel Certificate a request for an updated Tenant Estoppel Certificate or a letter of no change to the executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate; provided, however, obtaining such updated Tenant Estoppel Certificate or letter of no change shall (i) not be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close pursuant to Section 7.2.2 and (ii) in no way delay the Closing, it being agreed by Purchaser that any Tenant Estoppel Certificate executed and delivered in the form approved by Purchaser regardless of the date executed by the applicable tenant shall satisfy Purchaser’s condition to close pursuant to Section 7.2.2 with respect to such tenant.
6.4.2 Upon receipt from Purchaser of drafts of estoppel certificates addressed to the parties listed on Schedule 6.4.2 (individually, a “Third Party Estoppel Certificate” and collectively, the “Third Party Estoppel Certificates”), Seller shall promptly send such Third Party Estoppel Certificates to the parties listed on Schedule 6.4.2. Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds in connection with obtaining any such Third Party Estoppel Certificates,

6.4.3 Seller shall promptly after the date on which Purchaser obtains the Term Financing Commitment, the GE Bridge Financing Commitment or the Bridge Financing Commitment send to each tenant to which space in the Improvements is leased a request for a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement substantially in the form executed by such tenant in connection with the closing of the GE Loan, or if any tenant did not execute a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in connection with the GE Loan, a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in a form otherwise approved by Purchaser (such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements are referred to herein individually as, an “SNDA” and collectively as, the “SNDAs”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be obligated to request an SNDA from any tenant of the IBM Property other than IBM and PBS&J. Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds in connection with obtaining any such SNDAs, declare any default under any Lease or commence any legal action for enforcement of any Lease in order to obtain any such SNDAs. Seller shall copy Purchaser on the initial correspondence soliciting the SNDAs and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to forward to Purchaser any written communications, including, without limitation, letters, memorandums, e-mails, comments and conditions, received from the tenants in connection with the tenants’ execution of the SNDAs.

Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds in connection with obtaining any such ROFO Acknowledgments, declare any default under the applicable Lease or commence any legal action for enforcement of the applicable Lease in order to obtain any such ROFO Acknowledgments. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to forward to Purchaser any written communications, including, without limitation, letters, memorandums, e-mails, comments and conditions, received from the ROFO Tenants in connection with the ROFO Tenants’ execution of the remaining ROFO Acknowledgments. If any ROFO Tenant exercises its right to purchase any Property, subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9), this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Property on the date of such notice, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property.

The consummation of the transaction contemplated herein (“Closing”) shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of Escrow Agent (or such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser). Funds shall be deposited into and held by Escrow Agent in a closing escrow account with a bank satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller.

(3) Actions, Suits, etc. There shall exist no pending or threatened actions, suits, arbitrations, claims, attachments, proceedings, assignments for the benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceedings, against Purchaser that would materially and adversely affect Purchaser’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and
(4) Property. It shall be a condition to Seller’s obligation to close hereunder that this Agreement and the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement (as applicable) shall not have been terminated with respect to (x) more than three Properties or (y) any two of the Harborside, Goodyear (it being understood that a termination of this Agreement with respect to one or more of the separate sites constituting the Goodyear Properties or one or more separate sites constituting the CEVA Properties shall be deemed in both cases to be a termination of this Agreement with respect to only one Property notwithstanding the Goodyear Lease and the CEVA Lease cover multiple Properties) or Northrop (XxXxxx, VA) Properties; provided, however, that a termination of this Agreement with respect to a Property by reason of the exercise of a right to purchase such Property by a ROFO Tenant shall be disregarded for purposes of the application of the provisions of this Section 7.2.1(4). For clarification, the parties agree that while both this Agreement and the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement must both
-23-
proceed towards Closing at the same time, or both terminate at the end of the Inspection Period together, it is possible for a closing condition under the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement not to be satisfied (for example, the bankruptcy of Schwab) which would allow Purchaser not to close and to terminate with respect Harborside but proceed to closing under this Agreement.
7.2.2 Conditions to Purchaser’s Obligations to Close.
(1) Representations and Warranties. Seller’s representations and warranties contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of Sections 4.4 and 9.3. Notwithstanding Sections 4.4 and 9.3, Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that Section 7.2.3 shall apply (subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9)) to any material change in the representations and warranties of Seller with respect to a particular Property due to any Updated Property Information or changes that are not a result of a breach by Seller or any of its covenants;
(2) Deliveries. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall have tendered all deliveries to be made by Seller at Closing;
(3) Actions, Suits, etc. There shall exist no pending or threatened actions, suits, arbitrations, claims, attachments, proceedings, assignments for the benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceedings, against Seller that would materially and adversely affect Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement;
(4) Tenant Estoppel Certificates. Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser Tenant Estoppel Certificates from (A) each of the following tenants: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, Sybase, Inc., WellPoint, Inc. (which WellPoint, Inc. Tenant Estoppel Certificate shall include an acknowledgement by WellPoint, Inc., in a form approved by Purchaser, that WellPoint, Inc.’s right of first refusal and/or right of first offer to purchase the Property leased by WellPoint, Inc. has terminated by its terms) and Northrop Grumman Information Technology, Inc.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Estoppel Requirement has not been satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date (the “Estoppel Shortfall”), iStar shall execute and deliver, and Purchaser agrees to accept, estoppel certificates (“Seller Estoppels”) with respect to the Estoppel Shortfall, subject to the Seller Estoppel Cap, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, in which event such Seller Estoppels together with the Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall satisfy the Estoppel Requirement; provided, however,
-24-
that (i) the Seller Estoppels shall not be subject to the “basket” or “cap” provisions with respect to Seller’s liability set forth in Section 9.3, (ii) the Seller Estoppels shall not represent more than twenty (20%) percent of the Estoppel Requirement (the “Seller Estoppel Cap”) and (iii) a Seller Estoppel shall in no event eliminate the need for Seller to deliver a ROFO Acknowledgment from all tenant from which a ROFO Acknowledgment otherwise is required. A response from a tenant which materially contradicts the information set forth in such tenant’s Lease or in the Exhibits attached hereto or in the representations of Seller set forth herein shall not constitute a Tenant Estoppel Certificate for purposes of this Section 7.2.2(4);
(5) Occupancy/Non Bankruptcy. It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligations to close hereunder that (a) as of the Closing Date, no tenant shall have terminated, or given notice of intent to terminate, its Lease, except with respect to a Casualty Tenant Termination Event or a Condemnation Tenant Termination Event and (b) from the end of the Inspection Period through the Closing Date, no tenant shall have vacated, abandoned or ceased operations at any Real Property, or filed for voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or similar protection;
(6) Closing of GE Bridge Loan/Mezzanine Loan.

In no event shall the closing of (w) the loan contemplated by the Term Financing Commitment, (x) the Bridge Loan or (y) any alternative financing be a condition of Purchaser’s obligation to close hereunder;
(7) ROFO Acknowledgments. It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligations to close hereunder that Seller shall have delivered the ROFO Acknowledgements, subject to the last sentence of Section 6.5 with respect to any ROFO Tenant that exercises its right to purchase any Property;
(8) Title Policies. It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligations to close hereunder that the Title Company shall have issued the Title Policies and Co-Insurance subject to, and in accordance, with Section 5.4;

For clarification, the parties agree that while both this Agreement and the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement must both proceed towards Closing at the same time, or both terminate at the end of the Inspection Period together, it is possible for a closing condition under the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement not to be satisfied (for example, the bankruptcy of Schwab) which would allow Purchaser not to close and to terminate with respect Harborside but proceed to Closing under this Agreement; and

It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close hereunder that Seller shall have delivered SNDAs from all tenants required by the terms of their respective Leases to provide SNDAs and all tenants whose Leases are not automatically subordinate to any financing on the applicable Property; provided, however, Seller shall not be obligated to deliver an SNDA from any tenant of the IBM Property other than IBM and PBS&J.
7.2.3 Failure to Satisfy Conditions. So long as a party is not in default hereunder, if any condition to such party’s obligation to proceed with the Closing hereunder has not been satisfied as of the Closing Date (or such earlier date as is provided herein), subject to any applicable notice and cure periods provided in Sections 10.1 and 10.2, such party may, in its sole discretion: (a) terminate this Agreement with respect only to those Properties as to which the condition(s) to proceed have not been satisfied (subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9)); or (b) if the condition(s) to close have not been satisfied as to under Section 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.1(4) or where in this Agreement provides for a termination of this Agreement in its entirety, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety, in each case by delivering written notice to the other party and Escrow Agent on or before the Closing Date (or such earlier date as is provided herein), or elect to close notwithstanding the non-satisfaction of such condition, in which event such party shall be deemed to have waived any such condition. In the event such party elects to close, notwithstanding the non-satisfaction of such condition, said party shall be deemed to have waived said condition, and there shall be no liability on the part of any other party hereto for breaches of representations and warranties of which the party electing to close had knowledge at the Closing. In the event this Agreement is terminated in part with respect to certain Properties (subject to the limitations of Sections 7.2.1(4) and 7.2.2(9)), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price for such Properties.

Such Third Party Estoppel Certificates as Seller shall have received, it being agreed that the failure of Seller to obtain any such Third Party Estoppel Certificates shall not (i) be a breach or default by Seller hereunder, (ii) constitute grounds for Purchaser to delay the Closing or (iii) give rise to a reduction of the Purchase Price;

PRORATIONS, DEPOSITS, COMMISSIONS
8.1 Prorations for Taxes.

To the extent tenants are not required to pay Taxes directly under their respective Leases, then the following shall apply with respect to the proration of Taxes:
8.1.1 If Taxes for the year of Closing are not known or cannot be reasonably estimated, Taxes shall be prorated based on Taxes for the year prior to Closing; and
8.1.2 Any additional Taxes relating to the year of Closing arising out of a change in ownership shall be assumed by Purchaser effective as of Closing and paid by Purchaser when due and payable, and Purchaser shall indemnify Seller from and against any and all such Taxes, which indemnification obligation shall survive the Closing.

8.3 Prorations for Non-Tenant Paid Items. To the extent tenants are not required to pay Operating Expenses or Taxes directly under their respective Leases, but are required to escrow Operating Expenses or Taxes under their respective Leases and/or to reimburse their landlord for all or any portion of such Operating Expenses or Taxes, then the following items shall be prorated as of the Closing Date with all items of income and expense for such Property being borne by Purchaser from and after (and including) the Closing Date and Seller prior to the Closing Date:
8.3.1 Utilities. Purchaser shall take all steps necessary to effectuate the transfer of utilities to its name as of the Closing Date, and where necessary, post deposits with the utility companies. Seller shall ensure that all utility meters are read as of the Closing Date. Seller shall be entitled to recover any and all deposits held by any utility company as of the Closing Date.
8.3.2 Tenant Receivables. Rents due from tenants under Leases and from tenants or licensees under License Agreements and Operating Expenses and Taxes payable by tenants under Leases and licenses under License Agreements (collectively, “Tenant Receivables”) and not collected by Seller as of Closing shall not be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing but shall be apportioned on the basis of the period for which the same is payable and if, as and when collected, as follows:
(a) Tenant Receivables and other income received from tenants under Leases, and/or tenants or licensees under License Agreements after Closing shall be applied in the following order of priority: (1) first, to payment of the current Tenant Receivables then due for the month in which the Closing Date occurs, which amount shall be apportioned between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date as set forth in Section 8.3 hereof (with Seller’s portion thereof to be delivered to Seller); (2) second, to payment of Tenant Receivables first coming due after Closing but applicable to the period of time before Closing, (collectively, “Unbilled Tenant Receivables”), which amount shall be delivered to Seller; (3) third, to Tenant Receivables first coming due after Closing and applicable to the period of time after Closing, which amount shall be retained by Purchaser; and (4) thereafter, to delinquent Tenant Receivables which were due and payable as of Closing but not collected by Seller as of Closing (collectively, “Uncollected Delinquent Tenant Receivables”), which amount shall be delivered to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to pursue the collection
-30-
of Uncollected Delinquent Tenant Receivables for a period of six (6) months after Closing without prejudice to Seller’s rights or Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, provided, however, Seller shall have no right to cause any such tenant or licensee to be evicted or to exercise any other “landlord” remedy (as set forth in such tenant’s Lease or licensee’s License Agreement) against such tenant other than to xxx for collection. Any sums received by Purchaser to which Seller is entitled shall be held in trust for Seller on account of such past due rents payable to Seller, and Purchaser shall remit to Seller any such sums received by Purchaser to which Seller is entitled within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof less reasonable, actual costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and disbursements, if any. Seller expressly agrees that if Seller receives any amounts after the Closing Date which are attributable, in whole or in part, to any period from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall hold the same in trust for Purchaser and remit to Purchaser that portion of the monies so received by Seller to which Purchaser is entitled within ten Business Days after receipt thereof. With respect to Unbilled Tenant Receivables, Purchaser covenants and agrees to (A) xxxx the same when billable and (B) cooperate with Seller to determine the correct amount of operating expenses and/or taxes due. Seller shall provide Purchaser with the necessary information to xxxx the same when billable and cooperate with Purchaser to maximize collection of the Unbilled Tenant Receivables. The provisions of this Section 8.3.2(a) shall survive the Closing.
(b) Purchaser acknowledges that Seller, as landlord under the Leases (and/or as licensor under the License Agreements) may be collecting from tenants under the Leases (and/or licensees under the License Agreements) additional rent relating to Operating Expenses or Taxes. To the extent that any such additional rent is paid by any tenants to the landlord under the Leases (and/or by any licensees to the licensor under the License Agreements) based on an estimated payment basis (whether monthly, quarterly, or otherwise) for which a future reconciliation of actual Operating Expenses or Taxes to estimated payments of Operating Expenses or Taxes is required to be performed at the end of a reconciliation period, Purchaser and Seller shall determine prior to the Closing whether such tenants and/or licensees have, in the aggregate, made an overpayment or underpayment of additional rent relating to Operating Expenses or Taxes (such determination to be based on a comparison of reasonable estimates of actual annual Operating Expenses and Taxes to the estimated payments being made by such tenants and/or licensees). If such determination indicates that such tenants and/or licensees have made an overpayment of additional rent relating to Operating Expenses or Taxes, Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase Price in the amount of such overpayment and Purchaser shall assume all obligations and liabilities relating to such overpayment. If, however, such determination indicates that such tenants and/or licensees have made an underpayment of additional rent relating to Operating Expenses or Taxes, Purchaser shall xxxx the tenants for the same promptly after the Closing and remit the same to Seller as and when collected. If such review indicates that it cannot be determined as of the Closing Date whether a tenant has overpaid or underpaid its additional rent relating to Operating Expenses or Taxes, Purchaser shall xxxx the tenant for the same at the end of the reconciliation period, and any overpayment with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller to Purchaser or any underpayment with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date, when received from the tenant, shall
-31-
be paid by Purchaser to Seller. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent Purchaser or Seller receives a check or wire transfer from any tenant in the exact amount of the item payable by such tenant or referencing the item to which the check or wire transfer relates, such check or wire transfer shall be (i) applied directly to the applicable item or (ii) if such item was previously paid by Seller or Purchaser, reimbursed to Seller or Purchaser, as applicable.
8.4 Miscellaneous Prorations. Without duplication of, and to the extent not addressed by Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, all other items that are customarily subject to proration and adjustment, including without limitation, “Base Rent”, shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, it being agreed that for purposes of prorations and adjustments, Purchaser shall be deemed the owner of the Property on the Closing Date.
8.5 Leasing Costs. Seller agrees to pay or discharge at or prior to Closing (and provide Purchaser with evidence of payment thereof), or provide Purchaser with a credit at Closing in the amount of, all leasing commissions, costs for tenant improvements, lease buyout costs, moving allowances, design allowances, legal fees and other costs, expenses and allowances incurred in order to induce a tenant to enter into a Lease or Lease renewal or extension or to induce a licensee to enter into a License Agreement (collectively, the “Leasing Costs”) that are indicated on Schedule 9.1.5 as being payable by Seller. Purchaser agrees to pay all Leasing Costs indicated on Schedule 9.1.5 as being payable by Purchaser as and when they become due. Seller shall have no obligation to pay, and as of Closing Purchaser shall assume, the obligation to pay, all Leasing Costs payable with respect to any option to renew or option to expand that has not been exercised prior to the Effective Date, which obligation shall survive the Closing. Additionally, as of Closing, Purchaser shall assume Seller’s obligations for Leasing Costs incurred with respect to Leases and Lease renewals and extensions and License Agreements and License Agreement renewals and extensions executed subsequent to the Effective Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
8.6 Closing Costs. Closing costs shall be allocated between Seller and Purchaser in accordance with Section 1.2.
8.7 Final Adjustment After Closing. If final bills are not available or cannot be issued prior to Closing for any item being prorated under Sections 8.1, 8.3 and 8.5, then Purchaser and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as such bills are available, final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due within thirty (30) days of written notice. All such rights and obligations shall survive the Closing.
8.8 Tenant Deposits. All tenant and licensee security deposits collected and not applied by Seller (and interest thereon if required by law or contract) shall be transferred or credited to Purchaser at Closing. As of the Closing, Purchaser shall assume Seller’s obligations related to tenant and licensee security deposits, but only to the extent they are credited or transferred to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.8, deposits in the form of letters of credit will not be transferred or credited at the Closing. Rather, at the Closing, Seller shall deliver the letters of credit to Purchaser and will cooperate with Purchaser to effect a transfer of the letters of credit to Purchaser. Purchaser and Seller shall each pay one-half
-32-
(1/2) of the costs and expenses (including transfer and other fees imposed by the issuer of the letter of credit) of transferring the letters of credit to Purchaser. In the event that prior to a transfer of any such letter of credit to Purchaser, Purchaser deems it advisable to draw on the same, Seller will cooperate in such presentation, and direct payment by virtue of any such presentation to Purchaser, and if Seller receives any such payment it will promptly deliver such payment in the form received and endorsed, without recourse, to Purchaser. Purchaser shall defend, indemnify and hold Seller harmless from all claims, causes of actions, actions, damages, costs, liabilities and expenses, including (without limitation) reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may arise out of any such presentation or related payment, other than by reason of any actions of Seller other than at the written direction of Purchaser. If any Security Deposit is held in a form other than cash or letter of credit, for example debt or equity securities, at Closing Seller shall deliver to Purchaser such security, or record evidence of Seller’s interest therein, and execute and deliver to Purchaser such documents and instruments as are necessary to vest in Purchaser the same ownership or security interest in such security deposit as held by Seller, but in no event less than what was required to be granted by the applicable tenant under and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease.
8.9 Commissions. Seller is responsible to Financial Advisor for a real estate fee at Closing in accordance with a separate agreement between Seller and Financial Advisor and at Closing Seller shall pay to Financial Advisor the entire real estate fee due under the separate agreement between Seller and Financial Advisor. Financial Advisor may share its commission with any other financial advisor or licensed broker involved in this transaction. Subject to Seller’s representations in this Section 8.9, under no circumstances shall Seller owe a commission or other compensation directly to any financial advisor, broker, agent or person other than Financial Advisor. No affiliate, subsidiary or party related in any way to Purchaser shall claim a commission or fee from Seller or Financial Advisor. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that no real estate brokerage commission or real estate fee is payable to any person or entity in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby other than Financial Advisor, and agrees to and does hereby indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless against the payment of any commission or real estate fee to any other person or entity claiming by, through or under Seller including Financial Advisor. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that no real estate brokerage commission or real estate fee is payable to any person or entity in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, and agrees to and does hereby indemnify and hold Seller harmless against the payment of any commission or real estate fee to any other person or entity claiming by, through or under Purchaser excluding Financial Advisor. The foregoing indemnifications shall extend to any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation costs) arising as a result of such claims and shall survive the Closing.

survival on Seller’s obligation to pay or credit Purchaser for Leasing Costs payable by Seller under Section 8.5 (and the corresponding representation in Section 9.1.5 regarding Leasing Costs), whether or not the obligations to pay any Leasing Costs first becomes known to Purchaser before, at or after the Closing; i.e., Seller shall pay or credit Purchaser for Leasing Costs payable by Seller under Section 8.5 (and the corresponding representation in Section 9.1.5 regarding Leasing Costs) regardless of the amount thereof and regardless of when the Leasing Cost becomes known to Purchaser.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
10.1 Seller’s Remedies. If Purchaser defaults on its obligations hereunder, or under the Harborside Purchaser and Sale Agreement, at or prior to Closing for any reason, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Purchaser’s representations or warranties or covenants hereunder, or under the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement, are breached in any material respect that impairs Purchaser’s ability to close under this Agreement or under the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement, and such default or breach is not cured by the earlier of the third (3rd) Business Day after written notice thereof from Seller or Harborside Seller (as applicable) or the Closing Date (except no notice or cure period shall apply if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property hereunder or the Harborside Membership Interests pursuant to the Harborside Purchase and Sale Agreement), Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy hereunder (except as provided in Sections 4.10, 8.8, 10.3 and 10.4 hereof), to terminate this Agreement and recover the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and the Xxxxxxx Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of such damages to be certain. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.1 to the contrary, in the event of Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser is asserting any claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Seller from having clear, indefeasible and marketable title to the Property. In all other events Seller’s remedies shall be limited to those described in this Section 10.1 and Sections 4.10, 8.8, 10.3 and 10.4 hereof. If Closing is consummated, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser fails to perform any obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement in its entirety if Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to proceed otherwise on or before ten (10) Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date or, having given notice that it intends to seek specific performance, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such claim or cause of action in New York County, New York within two months following the scheduled Closing Date. EXCEPT FOR iSTAR’S POTENTIAL LIABILITY PURSUANT TO THE SELLER ESTOPPELS AND/OR THE MEZZANINE LOAN, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, MANAGER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.
10.3 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event either party hereto employs an attorney in connection with claims by one party against the other arising from the operation of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party all reasonable fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with such claims.
10.4 Other Expenses.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller shall sell and convey to Purchaser and Purchaser shall accept the Property “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS,” except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or such Closing documents, Purchaser has not relied and will not rely on, and Seller has not made and is not liable for or bound by, any express or implied warranties, guarantees, statements, representations or information pertaining to the Property or relating thereto (including specifically, without limitation, Property information packages distributed with respect to the Property) made or furnished by Seller, or any property manager, real estate broker, financial advisor, agent or third party representing or purporting to represent Seller, to whomever made or given, directly or indirectly, orally or in writing. Purchaser
-41-
represents that it is a knowledgeable, experienced and sophisticated purchaser of real estate and that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, it is relying solely on its own expertise and that of Purchaser’s consultants in purchasing the Property and shall make an independent verification of the accuracy of any documents and information provided by Seller. Purchaser will conduct such inspections and investigations of the Property as Purchaser deems necessary, including, but not limited to, the physical and environmental conditions thereof, and shall rely upon same. By failing to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has afforded Purchaser a full opportunity to conduct such investigations of the Property as Purchaser deemed necessary to satisfy itself as to the condition of the Property and the existence or non-existence or curative action to be taken with respect to any Hazardous Materials on or discharged from the Property, and will rely solely upon same and not upon any information provided by or on behalf of Seller or its agents or employees with respect thereto, other than such representations, warranties and covenants of Seller as are expressly set forth in this Agreement. Upon Closing, Purchaser shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, adverse physical or construction defects or adverse environmental, health or safety conditions, may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s inspections and investigations. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that: (a) Purchaser is represented by legal counsel in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) Purchaser is purchasing the Property for business, commercial, investment or other similar purpose and not for use as Purchaser’s residence. Purchaser waives any and all rights or remedies it may have or be entitled to, deriving from disparity in size or from any significant disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.
11.3 Seller Released from Liability. Purchaser acknowledges that it will have the opportunity to inspect the Property during the Inspection Period, and during such period, observe its physical characteristics and existing conditions and the opportunity to conduct such investigation and study on and of the Property and adjacent areas as Purchaser deems necessary, and, except as set forth herein or in any Closing document, Purchaser hereby FOREVER RELEASES AND DISCHARGES Seller from all responsibility and liability, including without limitation, liabilities and responsibilities for the landlord’s obligations under the Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date, and liabilities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Of 1980 (42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq.), as amended (“CERCLA”), regarding the condition, valuation, salability or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever (including, but not limited to, with respect to the presence in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters, of Hazardous Materials or other materials or substances that have been or may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and that may need to be specially treated, handled and/or removed from the Property under current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines, and any structural and geologic conditions, subsurface soil and water conditions and solid and hazardous waste and Hazardous Materials on, under, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Property). Except as set forth herein or in any closing documents, Purchaser further hereby WAIVES (and by Closing this transaction will be deemed to have WAIVED) any and all objections and complaints (including, but not limited to, federal, state and local statutory and common law based actions, and any private right of action under any federal, state or local laws, regulations or guidelines to which the Property is or may be subject, including, but not limited to, CERCLA) concerning the physical characteristics and any existing conditions of the Property,
-42-
including, without limitation, the landlord’s obligations under the Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date. Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future environmental conditions on the Property and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and conditions, including, without limitation, the presence of Hazardous Materials or other contaminants, may not have been revealed by its investigation.
11.4 “Hazardous Materials” Defined. For purposes hereof, “Hazardous Materials” means “Hazardous Material,” “Hazardous Substance,” “Pollutant or Contaminant,” and “Petroleum” and “Natural Gas Liquids,” as those terms are defined or used in Section 101 of CERCLA, and any other substances regulated because of their effect or potential effect on public health and the environment, including, without limitation, PCBs, lead paint, asbestos, urea formaldehyde, radioactive materials, putrescible materials, and infectious materials.
11.5 Intentionally Deleted.
11.6 Survival. The terms and conditions of this ARTICLE 11 shall expressly survive the Closing, and shall not merge with the provisions of any closing documents.

-43-
12.2 Headings. The article, section, subsection, paragraph and/or other headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and in no way limit or enlarge the scope or meaning of the language hereof.
12.3 Invalidity and Waiver. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or inoperative, then so far as is reasonable and possible the remainder of this Agreement shall be deemed valid and operative, and, to the greatest extent legally possible, effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative. The failure by either party to enforce against the other any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to enforce against the other party the same or any other such term or provision in the future.
12.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including validity, construction, interpretation and effect, by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Each of Purchaser and Seller hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State, City and County of New York for the purpose of any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than a New York state court or federal court located in the State, City and County of New York. Each of Purchaser and Seller hereby consents to and grants any such court jurisdiction over the person of such party and over the subject matter of any such dispute and agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 12.10, or in such other manner as may be permitted by law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof on such party.
12.5 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement that contemplate performance after the Closing and the obligations of the parties not fully performed at the Closing (other than any unfulfilled closing conditions which have been waived or deemed waived by the other party) shall survive the Closing and shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of Closing.
12.6 Entirety and Amendments. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the Property, except that letter of intent dated April 2, 2010 between iStar Financial Inc., on behalf of Seller, and Purchaser shall survive the execution of this Agreement to the extent of the exclusivity obligations and covenants under such letter. This Agreement may be amended or supplemented only by an instrument in writing executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. All Schedules and Exhibits hereto are incorporated herein by this reference for all purposes. All information disclosed on any one Schedule and not disclosed on the other Schedules shall, to the extent applicable, be deemed to be disclosed on such other Schedules.

-44-
12.8 Intentionally Omitted.
12.9 No Electronic Transactions. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree this Agreement shall not be executed, entered into, altered, amended or modified by electronic means. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereby agree the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not be conducted by electronic means, except as specifically set forth in the “Notices” section of this Agreement.
12.10 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be served on the parties at the addresses set forth in Section 1.3. Any such notices shall, unless otherwise provided herein, be given or served (a) by depositing the same in the United States mail, postage paid, certified and addressed to the party to be notified, with return receipt requested, (b) by overnight delivery using a nationally recognized overnight courier, (c) by personal delivery, or (d) by Portable Document Format (PDF) so long as a copy thereof is also sent by one of the other delivery methods set forth in Sections 12.10(a), (b) or (c). Notice given in accordance herewith for all permitted forms of notice other than by electronic mail, shall be effective upon the earlier to occur of actual delivery to the address of the addressee or refusal of receipt by the addressee. In no event shall this Agreement be altered, amended or modified by electronic mail or electronic record. A party’s address may be changed by written notice to the other party; provided, however, that no notice of a change of address shall be effective until actual receipt of such notice. Copies of notices are for informational purposes only, and a failure to give or receive copies of any notice shall not be deemed a failure to give notice. Notices given by counsel to the Purchaser shall be deemed given by Purchaser and notices given by counsel to the Seller shall be deemed given by Seller.
12.11 Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and agree that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
12.12 Calculation of Time Periods; Business Day. Unless otherwise specified, in computing any period of time described herein, the day of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be included, unless such last day is not a Business Day, in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which is a Business Day. The last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at midnight local time in New York, New York. As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday for national banks in the City of New York, New York or Colorado.
12.13 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one Agreement.
12.14 Recordation. Without the prior written consent of Seller, there shall be no recordation of either this Agreement or any memorandum hereof, or any affidavit pertaining hereto, and any such recordation of this Agreement or memorandum or affidavit by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller shall constitute a default hereunder by Purchaser,
-45-
whereupon Seller shall have the remedies set forth in Section 10.1 hereof. In addition to any such remedies, Purchaser shall be obligated to execute an instrument in recordable form releasing this Agreement or memorandum or affidavit, and Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Section 12.14 shall survive any termination of this Agreement as a surviving obligation.
12.15 Further Assurances. In addition to the acts and deeds recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed and/or delivered by either party at Closing, each party agrees to perform, execute and deliver, but without any obligation to incur any additional liability or expense, on or after the Closing any further deliveries and assurances as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or to further perfect the conveyance, transfer and assignment of the Property to Purchaser.
12.16 Discharge of Obligations. The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every representation and warranty made by Seller herein and every agreement and obligation on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except those which are herein specifically stated to survive Closing.
12.17 ERISA. Under no circumstances shall Purchaser have the right to assign this Agreement to any person or entity owned or controlled by an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) if Seller’s sale of the Property to such person or entity would, in the reasonable opinion of Seller’s ERISA advisors or consultants, create or otherwise cause a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or any other applicable law with an effect similar to that of Section 406 of ERISA including, but not limited to, Section 4975 of the Code (each such law, a “Similar Law”). In the event Purchaser assigns this Agreement or transfers any ownership interest in Purchaser, and such assignment or transfer would make the consummation of the transaction hereunder a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or any Similar Law and would therefore either (a) necessitate the termination of this Agreement, or (b) cause Seller to incur liability under ERISA or such Similar Law if the transaction were consummated, then, in either case, notwithstanding any contrary provision which may be contained herein, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Anything in this Section 12.17 to the contrary notwithstanding, Seller shall have no right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.17 if Purchaser’s assignee expressly reaffirms in a writing addressed to Seller the representation in Section 9.2.5.
12.18 No Third Party Beneficiary. The provisions of this Agreement and of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing are and will be for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser only and are not for the benefit of any third party, and accordingly, no third party shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing, except that a tenant of the Property may enforce Purchaser’s indemnity obligation under Section 4.10 hereof.
12.19 Reporting Person. Purchaser and Seller hereby designate First American as the “reporting person” pursuant to the provisions of Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
-46-
12.20 Post-Closing Access. From and after the Closing, the Purchaser will, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, permit Seller and Seller’s agents and representatives access (and will permit copying of materials pertaining to the period prior to the Closing), during business hours from time to time, to the Lease Files and other Property-related information upon reasonable advance notice to the Purchaser. This Section 12.20 shall survive the Closing.
12.21 Waiver of Jury Trial. SELLER AND PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS). THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
12.22 Information and Audit Cooperation. Within 75 days after the Closing Date, Seller, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to Seller, shall allow Purchaser’s auditors access to the books and records of Seller relating to the operation of the Properties for the two year period prior to the Closing Date to enable Purchaser to comply with any financial reporting requirements applicable to Purchaser, upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Seller. In addition, Seller shall provide Purchaser’s designated independent auditors a representation letter regarding the books and records of the Properties in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H.
12.23 Bulk Sales Laws. Seller shall (i) comply with the bulk transfer requirements of the states in which the Property is located, (ii) keep Purchaser apprised of Seller’s compliance with such requirements and (iii) indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless of and from any and all liabilities, claims, demands and expenses of any kind or nature which arise out of the failure of Seller to so comply with such requirements.
12.24 Radon. The following statements apply to any Property located in the State of Florida: (A) Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. (B) Levels of radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida.
