The Parties hereby jointly authorise the notary public to request, to accept and to use the documentation regarding the discharge of encumbrances, also according to Sec. 875 (2) BGB, in the name and on behalf of all parties to this Agreement and involved in the financing of the purchase price. The Seller shall bear the costs of deleting the land charges as well as of any and all encumbrances that it does not acquire.

the lessee’s easement pursuant to Annex 3.2 e) has been registered with the land register.

submission to the Buyer of a lease agreement as specified in Sec. 3.7, which the Buyer must confirm to the notary.

Notwithstanding the notary public’s confirmation mentioned in sentence 1, the purchase price shall not become payable prior to 27 September 2012 and only when the maturity requirements specified in Annex A 4 to the Framework Deed (Purchase Agreement Hanover) in Sec. 3.2 a) through e) have also been met and this has been confirmed by the notary public to the Buyer in written form, unless the relevant buyer has withdrawn from the Purchase Agreement Hanover or the condition precedent of that agreement has finally not been met. The Buyer is entitled to waive individual maturity requirements by unilateral written notification to the notary.

If the lease agreement pursuant to lit. f) is not submitted to the Buyer on or before 30 November 2012, maturity requirement shall no longer be valid and the purchase price will then become payable no earlier than ten Bank Working Days after 30 November 2012 once all other maturity requirements have been met.

3.3

The notary public is instructed to confirm to the Parties in writing by registered letter with return receipt that the requirements of Sec. 3.2 have been met (“Maturity Notice”). The date of receipt of the Maturity Notice by the Buyer shall be decisive. The notary public shall send a copy of the Maturity Notice to the Seller and to BEITEN XXXXXXXXX Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH, to the attention of Mr Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 00, 00000 Xxxxxx.

The following shall apply to the remaining purchase price:

In case that the use of the cancellation documents for the encumbrances that will not be acquired by the Buyer depends on the payment of redemption amounts, the parties hereby irrevocably instruct the notary public to notify the Buyer in the Maturity Notice in which amount a redemption amount must be paid to which creditor and to which account, in order to fulfil the condition for the use of the cancellation documents.

The Buyer undertakes to pay the redemption amounts notified to it by the notary public, for the account of the Seller, to the relevant creditor from the purchase price. The notary public and the Buyer are not obliged to review the redemption amounts demanded by the relevant creditor as to their justification or to notify the Seller thereof prior to transferring the amounts.

Up to the amount of the redemption amounts, the Seller shall not have any claim to payment to itself or other third parties, but only a claim to payment to the creditors to be redeemed, which shall, however, not have an own payment claim.

The (remaining) purchase price shall be paid to the following account of the Seller:

3.6

The Buyer submits to immediate foreclosure under this Deed to the extent of the purchase price and any default interest to be levied upon the entirety of its assets. The notary public is irrevocably instructed to issue to the Seller an enforceable copy of this Deed when he has issued the confirmation pursuant to Sec. 3.2 and the Seller demands so in written form and confirms to the notary public in writing that the purchase price has not been paid within the agreed period despite being due. The notary public shall immediately notify the Buyer in written form that the enforceable copy has been issued. For the purpose of foreclosure, in order to satisfy the requirement of certainty (Bestimmtheitserfordernis) of the foreclosure procedure, interest shall be owed as from the first day of the month following the recording of this Agreement.

3.7	When agreeing on the purchase price amount pursuant to the above Sec. 3.1, it was taken into account that the lease agreement with the lessee Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx has been terminated and that the vacated premises have been returned to the Seller.

Prerequisites for a purchase price adjustment

Provided that the Seller on or before six months following the date of this notarisation submits to the Buyer a lease agreement for the vacant premises hatched and bordered in black in the annex to this Deed and duly signed by the lessee and meeting the following minimum requirements:

•

minimum net cold rent per sqm per month (excl. VAT): EUR 3.50

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

Page 5 of 20

•

maximum net cold rent per sqm per month (excl. VAT): EUR 8.00

•

minimum term without special termination right: 5 years

•

minimum solvency: Dun&Bradstreet Rating 2 (“low risk”)

•

type of use: only retail that is permissible there and which does not breach any existing prohibitions of competition The following types of use shall be excluded: sex shops, gambling halls, car (part) dealers, refreshment stands (Trinkhallen)/kiosks

•

the tenant will be bound by his signature for four weeks;

•

apart from that, the terms and conditions of the lease agreement do not materially deviate from those of the other lease agreements regarding the Object of Purchase.

the purchase price will be adjusted according to the calculation set out below if the Buyer confirms that neither the contents of the lease agreement nor the person of the lessee as contractual partner of the lease agreement violate US American REIT regulations according to the Internal Revenue Service Tax Code or other applicable statutory provisions. If the Buyer fails to deliver such confirmation, the Buyer shall give verifiable reasons and provide applicable statutory provisions.

Case 1: Lease of “Schlecker” premises only

The purchase price shall be adjusted as follows:

(A × (B+ C)) = G

where

A = New rent for the Schlecker unit p.a.

B = Term of the new lease agreement for the Schlecker unit in years

C = 2 (the sum of B+C must not exceed 10.75 (this is a multiplier generally agreed on between the Parties during purchase price negotiations))

D = New rent for the Hol’ Ab unit p.a.

E = Term of the new lease agreement for the Hol’ Ab unit in years +2.5 (the sum must not exceed 10.75 (this is a multiplier generally agreed on between the Parties during purchase price negotiations))

G = Amount of purchase price adjustment

Example:

New lease agreement for the Schlecker (248 sqm) unit for a lease period of 7 years at a rent of EUR 17,856.00 p.a.; the monthly rent therefore amounts to EUR 6.00/sqm.

A = EUR 17,856.00

B = 7

C = 2

G = Amount of purchase price adjustment

(EUR 17,856.00 × 9) = EUR 160,704.00

Case 1: Lease of complete “Schlecker” and “Hol ab” premises

For the purpose of a new lease of the “Schlecker” unit, the Seller is also entitled to terminate the lease agreement with “Hol ab” under the conditions set out in lit. a), to create a bigger single unit consisting of both

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

Page 6 of 20

these units. It is made clear that an early termination of the lease agreement with “Hol ab” is only permissible if a new lease agreement for the complete “Schlecker” and “Hol ab” area is signed. An early termination of the lease agreement with “Hol ab” by the Seller without the signing of a new lease contract for the complete “Schlecker and “Hol ab” area complying with the minimum requirements as stipulated in this section is not permissible. If following the termination of the lease agreement with the tenant “Hol ab”, no or only reduced lease fees are payable until lease fees become payable under the new lease agreement, this income loss shall be borne by the Seller as well and the Buyer shall have the right to deduct this amount from the additional purchase price. If the tenant or any other third party has been promised any payments, benefits or other advantages in connection with the early termination of the lease agreement with “Hol ab”, these shall be borne by the Seller and the Seller must indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless against any such claims. Any payment obligations brought about for the Buyer in this connection shall entitle the Buyer to deduct such amount from the additional purchase price.

In this case, the purchase price adjustment shall be calculated as follows:

(A × (B + C)) + (D × E) – (F × H) = G

where

A = New rent for the Schlecker unit p.a.

B = Term of the new lease agreement for the Schlecker unit in years

C = 2 (the sum of B+C must not exceed 10.75 (this is a multiplier generally agreed on between the Parties during purchase price negotiations))

D = New rent for the Hol’ Ab unit p.a.

F = Former rent for the Hol’Ab unit p.a.

G = Amount of purchase price adjustment

H= 10.75, (this is a multiplier generally agreed on between the Parties during purchase price negotiations)

Example:

New lease agreement for the Schlecker (248 sqm) and Hol’ Ab (902 sqm) units for a lease period of 7 years at a rent of EUR 82,800.00 p.a.; the monthly rent therefore amounts to EUR 6.00/sqm.

A = EUR 17,856.00

B = 7

C = 2

D = EUR 64,944.00

E = 9.5

F = EUR 36,000.00

G = Amount of purchase price adjustment

H= 10.75=, (this is a multiplier generally agreed on between the Parties during purchase price negotiations)

(EUR 17,856.00 × 9) + (EUR 64,944.00 × 9.5) – (EUR 36,000.00 × 10.75) = EUR 390,672.00

General provisions

The Seller shall submit to the Buyer the lease agreement signed by the lessee, including meaningful information on the lessee, without undue delay.

The costs for the new lease (real estate agent, constructional measures (Ausbau), etc.) and for lease-free times shall be borne by the Seller; the Buyer shall be entitled to deduct such costs and lost income from the purchase price if they are payable by the Buyer.

The additional purchase price will become payable upon fulfilment of the above minimum conditions at the time at which the lessee has to start lease payments under the lease contract, but not before the purchase price pursuant to Sec. 3 hereof becomes payable.

If the commitment period (Bindungsfrist) of the lessee ends prior to the transfer of possession (Besitzübergang) (Sec. 10 of this Agreement), the Seller will duly counter-sign the lease agreement provided the Buyer agrees to such signing; if the Buyer agrees to the signing, the Seller will be obliged to counter-sign and return a copy of the lease agreement to the lessee without undue delay. The Buyer will declare to the Seller the Buyer’s consent (or refusal of consent, as applicable) within 10 Bank Working Days following the transmission of the lease agreement signed by the lessee and the information on the lessee. If the commitment period of the lessee ends after the transfer of possession, solely the Buyer shall be entitled to countersign the lease agreement and return it to the lessee.

3.8	Regarding the property acquisition tax, the Parties agree as follows:

The property acquisition tax arising from this Purchase Agreement shall be fully borne by the Buyer.

3.9	Regarding value-added tax possible liability of the Buyer for tax debts of the Seller, the Parties agree as follows:

Pursuant to Sec. 9 (1) and (2) UStG (German VAT Law), the Seller waives the tax exemption of the delivery of the Object of Purchase pursuant to Sec. 4 No. 9a UStG. The tax exemption is waived unconditionally. The parties are aware that the waiver is only significant if the delivery is taxable.

The purchase price in Sec. 3.1 is a net purchase price. If and to the extent the Buyer owes VAT due to the delivery of the Object of Purchase, the purchase price shall be increased by the amount of VAT owed by it.

The Parties are acting on the assumption that the delivery of the Object of Purchase on the basis of this Property Purchase Agreement qualifies as non-taxable turnover in the context of a sale of a business within the meaning of Sec. 1 (1a) UStG and VAT will therefore not be payable.

Against this background, the Parties agree as follows:

In case that Sec. 1 (1a) UStG is finally applied (bestandskräftig angewendet) by the fiscal authority, the following shall apply:

The sale does not oblige the Seller to correct its input VAT deduction (Sec. 15a (10) UStG); instead, the Buyer shall assume the Seller’s position for tax purposes until the end of any decisive input VAT correction periods.

The Seller will provide the Buyer upon the Buyer’s written request within one month upon receipt of such request with the information required for a correction pursuant to Sec. 15a UStG (Sec. 15a (10) 2nd sentence UStG). If required by law, the Seller is entitled to retain copies or the original documents; if the Seller retains the original documents, it shall provide the Buyer with copies.

If and to the extent the Buyer can have input VAT corrections made only upon submission of documents that are retained by the Seller or that the Seller for other reasons does not or cannot provide to the Buyer, the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer for the resulting loss. This shall also apply where the Seller retains documents due to a statutory requirement to do so.

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

Page 8 of 20

The Seller shall fully indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless on first demand of the Buyer against any disadvantages resulting from a duty to input VAT adjustment under Sec. 15a UstG if these result from events and circumstances prior to the effective transfer date (Übergabestichtag); the provisions on the procedure as contained in Sec. 3.11 and Sec. 3.13 shall apply mutatis mutandis.

Should the fiscal authority—contrary to what is expected by the Parties—treat the sale hereunder as a transaction that is subject to value-added tax within the meaning of Sec. 1 (1) No. 1 UStG, the following shall apply:

The Seller shall immediately issue to the Buyer an invoice that meets the statutory requirements pursuant to Sec. 14 (1), 14a (5) UStG. The invoice shall refer to the Buyer as tax debtor pursuant to Sec. 13b UStG with regard to VAT. The Parties explicitly clarify that this Agreement does not constitute an invoice within the above meaning. The notary public has instructed the Parties that the Buyer may owe the VAT to the tax office pursuant to Sec. 13b (2) No. 3, 5 (1) UStG, to the extent that the turnover is subject to the German Land Transfer Tax Act (Grunderwerbsteuergesetz).

3.10	The Seller guarantees to have paid all due taxes for which the Buyer may be held liable under Sec. 75 AO. The Seller has further met all duties the Seller has regarding property tax, which shall be paid by the Seller until the transfer date.

3.11

The Seller indemnifies and holds the Buyer harmless against any liability under Sec. 75 AO. If the Buyer is held liable under Sec. 75 AO and taxes are claimed from the Buyer, the Seller will have to indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless against any liability amounts assessed against the Buyer. In such case, the Buyer shall be obliged to make any payment order available to the Seller without undue delay, but no later than two weeks days following its receipt by the Buyer. If the Buyer fails to meet this obligation, the Seller shall be obliged to indemnify and hold the Seller harmless only if only if the Buyer proves that the Buyer has sent on the payment order and has met the Buyer’s obligation under Sec. 3.12 1st sentence by such time.

3.12

Sec. 3.11 shall apply mutatis mutandis if any claims are made against the Buyer under Sec. 11 (2) GrStG and Sec. 48a (3) 1st sentence EStG. This shall be without prejudice to Sec. 10.2, so that the Buyer will have to pay the property tax as of the transfer date and any indemnification by the Seller will be excluded.

3.13

The Seller shall further be obliged to lodge formal appeals against payment orders, including to file requests to stay the enforcement (Aussetzung der Vollziehung) and to pursue appeal procedures in due form until all legal remedies are exhausted, where so required by the Seller or the Buyer has breached the obligation under Sec. 3.11 2nd sentence or a prior decision of the Seller cannot be obtained. If a timely decision of the Seller with regard to the lodging of appeals, including requests to stay the enforcement, cannot be obtained, the Buyer shall, upon request of the Seller, withdraw any appeals lodged and requests to stay enforcement. If the Buyer fails to meet the above request of the Seller or if the withdrawal request of the Buyer made in reasonable time after receipt of the payment order refers to appeals lodged because of a breach of the duty under Sec. 3.11 2nd sentence, the Seller shall bear the costs of such appeals and requests to stay enforcement. In all other cases, the Seller shall reimburse to the Buyer any costs required for a legal defence against payment orders and justifiably deemed reasonable by the Buyer if the Buyer is entitled to demand indemnification from the Seller in accordance with the above provisions. The Buyer may demand guarantees for the costs of legal action.

Sec. 4

General Provisions on Material and Legal Defects, Liability

4.1

Any rights and claims of the Buyer for material or legal defects of the Object of Purchase shall be excluded unless explicitly otherwise agreed on in this Agreement. Any liability of the Seller for damages, for defects or any other reason, is shall be limited, with the exceptions of Section 4.2, to direct damage, in particular excluding consequential damage such as lost gains from an on-sale; the parties make it clear that a reduction of rental income resulting from a defective purchase object, for instance due to reduced rents, claims for damages or set-offs by tenants, shall constitute direct damage.

4.2

Insofar as an exemption from or limitation of liability is agreed on above, it shall not apply to liability for damage from the injury of life, body or health if the Seller or its legal representative or vicarious agent is liable for the violation of duty nor to compensation for further damage due to an intentional or grossly negligent violation of duty of the Seller or its legal representative or vicarious agent.

4.3

The Seller has provided the Buyer with information and documents on the Object of Purchase (hereinafter collectively the “Data Room”). The contents of the Data Room, which are known to the Buyer, are summarized in the Data Room Index in Annex 4.4 to the Reference Deed. A data carrier on which the entire Data Room is stored was submitted today to the notary public by the Parties, who have checked the completeness of the data carrier with regard to the contents of the Data Room in advance, for safekeeping, with the instruction to keep such data carriers with the original agreement, and to make available a copy to each Party upon written request and at the expense of such Party.

4.4

Where the Seller’s knowledge is decisive, knowledge of the Seller’s employees, the employees of the group/affiliated companies to which the Seller belongs, and the knowledge of the asset manager Marcol shall be imputed to the Seller. Knowledge of the property management shall also be imputed, but only where an incident entails costs or damage in excess of EUR 5,000.00 for the landlord.

4.5

To secure the Buyer’s claims against the Seller from this Agreement due to legal and/or material defects, for which the Seller is held liable pursuant to this Agreement, or due to stipulations under Sec. 3.9 through to 3.13, the Buyer is entitled to retain an amount of EUR 60,000 from the purchase price. If within a period of 12 months, starting with the transfer of possession of the Object of Purchase , such material and/or legal defect of the Object of Purchase appears or a claim arises from the provisions of Sec. 3.9 through to 3.13, and/or if several of the defects listed in Annex 5.2 have not been removed within 6 months, the Buyer is entitled to use the amount that is required to secure a due payment claim (e.g. advance payment for substitute performance) or to fulfil a claim due under Sec. 3.8 through to 3.12 out of the retention provided for in this Purchase Agreement and (if required) also the other Purchase Agreements (Sec. 4.5 of Annexes A2 to A4 to the Framework Deed) (“General Retention”) If the secured event occurs, the Seller is obliged to give its consent to payment at the request of the Buyer. If the billing for the relevant defect(s) exceeds the aforementioned 12-month period, the Buyer is entitled to retain the amount that will probably be required to remove the defect(s) until complete removal of the defect and the billing of the costs of removal (including organisational and planning costs) and until settlement of the bills for the relevant removal of defect(s). Upon expiry of the mentioned 12-month period or the extended period, the Buyer shall pay the unused portion of the amount to the Seller. Insofar as the material or legal defect cannot be removed, the Buyer is entitled to retain the amount by which the defect reduces the value of the Object of Purchase from the General Retention for good. At the request of the relevant other Party, each Party is obliged to immediately also make the declarations of consent that are required under this provision towards the Bank, in the form necessary for payout and to repeat such declarations if necessary.

Sec. 12

Condition Precedent

12.1

The Parties enter into this Agreement, except for the provisions in Sec. 15.1, Sec. 16.1 and this Sec. 12, subject to the condition precedent that the easement (Dienstbarkeit) agreed on with the lessee LIDL Vertriebs GmbH & Co. KG has been submitted with the contents pursuant to Annex 3.2 e) in a form suitable for registration in the land register and the declaration of consent of the registered subordinated creditors has been submitted, in officially authenticated form, and the recording notary has filed a request for the registration of the easement with the land register office.

12.2

If the wording of the easement differs from the wording provided for in Annex 3.2.e), the condition precedent is also deemed to be fulfilled if the recording notary public, [his/her] partner, their representatives or successors in office has/have received a confirmation of the Seller that the condition precedent under Sec. 12 of the Purchase Agreement has been fulfilled, notwithstanding Sec. 12. of the Purchase Agreement. The Buyer is obliged to make such declaration and the Seller has a claim to the Buyer making such declaration, once the Seller has proven to the Buyer that the parties to be involved in the valid registration of the easement (for instance owner, tenant, registered creditors of subordinated claims) and the bank financing the purchase price have agreed in writing to the easement wording deviating from Annex 3.2 e) and the recording notary has filed the request for registration of the easement with the land register. The Buyer undertakes to strive to obtain the consent of his bank, to keep the Seller informed on the talks with the bank and to enable the Seller to directly communicate with the bank.

12.3	The Agreement will be definitely ineffective, without requiring rescission, if the condition precedent has not been fulfilled by 31 December 2012 at the latest.

12.4

Should the condition precedent pursuant to the above Sec. 12.1 not be fulfilled by 31 December 2012, the Buyer is entitled towards the Seller to damages for non-performance in the flat amount of EUR 30,000.00. In such case, the Seller shall further bear the notary fees in connection with this Agreement and its performance.

12.4	The Buyer is entitled to unilaterally declare at any time in writing to the Seller and the notary that the condition precedent has been met.

Sec. 13

Buyer’s and Seller’s Rights of Rescission

13.1	The Buyer is entitled to rescind this Agreement by written notification sent by fax to the notary public (with a concurrent fax copy to be sent to the Seller), who herewith is authorised to receive the declaration of rescission from the Parties

if by the date of transfer of possession (Handover Date) there is a substantial deterioration of the Object of Purchase that

•

would entitle a lessee to terminate its lease agreement; or

•

leads to a reduction by at least 20% of the monthly net cold rent and the Seller has not remove the deterioration within one month upon occurrence of the deterioration.

if the main lessee (Ankermieter) Lidl effectively terminates its lease agreement on grounds that the lessor is responsible for; or

if by 31 December 2012 the maturity requirements pursuant to Sec. 3.2 for the payment of the purchase price to the Seller have not been met;

13.2

In the event that the purchase price due for payment has not been credited to the specified Seller’s account by the due date, the Seller is, after setting in writing a time limit of four weeks, entitled to rescind this Agreement by a written notification sent by fax to the notary public (with a concurrent fax copy to be sent to the Buyer). The Seller is also entitled to rescission (without setting a time limit) if a pre-emption right is exercised.

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

13.3

The effects of rescission, unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, are regulated pursuant to Sec. 346 et seq. BGB.

In case of rescission caused by the failure to submit, or the late submission of, the easement document pursuant to Sec. 5.3, the Seller shall bear the notary fees relating to this Agreement and its performance and shall pay a flat amount of EUR 10,000 as damages, excluding any further claims.

Sec. 14

Financing of the Purchase Price

14.1

The Purchase Price shall be financed according to the specifications of the Buyer. The Seller agrees that, even before transfer of ownership, the Object of Purchase may be encumbered with enforceable (Sec. 800 ZPO (German Code of Civil Procedure)) real property liens (if necessary aggregate liens (Gesamtgrundpfandrechte)) up to the amount of the total purchase price—as the case may be taking into account the requirements of the competent redevelopment authority—for lien holders plus interest and ancillary charges up to any amount, and agrees to cooperate in their creation. The Seller shall cooperate in the creation of such real property liens, however, without assuming any personal liability. The respective applications for registration shall be filed promptly by the notary public. In this context, the Seller issues an irrevocable payment order to the real property lien creditor(s) to pay out the loan funds up to the amount of the purchase price according to the provisions of Sec. 3.

With respect to such real property liens, the Parties make the following arrangements, which must be reflected in the deed on the creation of the real property lien:

The real property lien creditor may use and/or retain the real property lien as security only to the extent that actual payments have been made on the purchase price. Any further security agreements between the real property lien creditor and the Buyer shall only become effective upon complete payment of the purchase price, at the latest upon transfer of ownership of the respective object of lien to the Buyer. As of said date, they shall be effective for and against the Buyer as the new security provider.

Payments by the real property lien creditor shall be made exclusively to the Buyer’s bank account specified in this Agreement or to beneficiaries in rem in accordance with the notary public’s Maturity Notice.

The real property lien may continue to exist after the registration of transfer of ownership to the Buyer. The Seller assigns all rights in this real property lien, in particular ownership rights and claims for restitution, to the Buyer, who accepts such assignment, with effect of the payment of the purchase price, in any event as of the registration of transfer of ownership of the Object of Purchase. The entry thereof in the land register is approved.

The Seller does not assume personal liability for payment in connection with the creation of the real property lien. The Buyer undertakes to indemnify the Seller against any costs and other consequences triggered by the creation of the real property lien.

The real property lien creditor undertakes, in case of any ineffectiveness or reversal of this Agreement, in total or with regard to the relevant encumbered property, to agree to the deletion of the real property lien concurrently against repayment of the purchase price and to return any deed of the real property lien to the Seller.

14.2	The Seller authorises the Buyer to represent it in all aforementioned legal acts, in particular to create enforceable (Sec. 800 ZPO (German Code of Civil Procedure)) real property liens on the Object of Purchase

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

Page 17 of 20

up to any amount with interest and ancillary charges up to any amount, and to make all declarations and perform all acts necessary for or conducive to the registration, the procurement of precedence, deletion, or changes in precedence of such real property liens. This authority shall only be valid in the event that the deed of creation of the real property lien contains the provisions of Sec. 14.1 a) to e) above. The Buyer is entitled to grant sub-authorisation to the same extent.

14.3.

The Buyer is entitled, and the Seller is obliged, to provide to the creditor of the real property liens that secure the financing of the purchase price certified photocopies of excerpts of this Agreement that refer to the aforementioned assignments and payment order.

14.4	The Buyer shall bear any costs incurred and indemnify the Seller against any demands.

Omitted

14.6	Within the context of the financing of the purchase price, the Buyer is entitled to assign any rights and claims against the Seller arising from this Agreement to third parties – in particular to the credit institution financing the purchase price.

14.7

The application for registration of the financing land charge shall only be filed upon application for registration of the lessee’s easement (cf. Sec. 3.2 e) of this Agreement) If the Seller has not filed the due application for registration of the lessee’s easement by 31 December 2012, the application for registration of the financing land charge may also be filed notwithstanding the application for registration of the lessee’s easement.

Sec. 15

Costs and Taxes

15.1

The Buyer shall bear any notary and court fees related to this Agreement and its performance as well as the property acquisition tax, to the extent that this Agreement does not contain provisions to the contrary. The costs of representation (authorisations, permits, etc.) and counsel shall be borne by each Party individually.

The costs for the procurement of declarations made personally or promised incurred by a Party shall be borne by such Party, the costs for the discharge of encumbrances on the sold property shall be borne by the Seller. The costs and fees for any lessee’s easement that may have to be registered under Sec. 12.1 shall be borne by the Seller.

15.2

Should one of the Parties exercise a rescission right provided for by law or by contract and should this be the fault of the other Party, all costs, including reversal costs, shall be borne by the Party responsible for the grounds of rescission. The Buyer shall in any case be responsible for the failure to make payment.

Sec. 16

Land Register Declarations

16.1	The Seller and the Buyer agree that ownership of the Object of Purchase shall be transferred to the Buyer and declare the conveyance of title. The Seller approves and the Buyer applies for the registration of the transfer of ownership in the land register.

On this day already, the notary public is instructed to issue executed copies or certified copies of the deed containing the declaration of the conveyance of title only in the event that the preconditions for the application of registration of transfer of ownership are met. Until then, only executed copies and certified copies not containing the declaration of conveyance of title may be issued.

16.2	The Seller approves and the Buyer applies for the entry of a priority notice in the land register to secure the claims of the Buyer for the transfer of ownership of the Object of Purchase. On this day already, the Buyer

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

Page 18 of 20

approves and applies for the cancellation of this priority notice as soon as it is registered as owner in the land register and there have, in the meantime, been no rights, in the widest sense of the word, entered in the land register and/or no application has been made for the registration of such rights in the land register, in which the Buyer has not participated. On this day already, the contracting Parties approve and apply for the deletion of this priority notice to the notary in trust. The officiating notary public is instructed to make use of this approval of deletion if the purchase price for the Object of Purchase has not been paid by the maturity date and if, at its own discretion, the claim secured by the priority notice no longer exists, whether because of revocation, rescission due to default, or on other legal grounds. The notary public may assume so if (a) confirmed by both Parties in writing or (b) conclusively stated by one of the Parties and (aa) the other Party can no longer be reached at the address stated in the deed and no other address has been provided or (bb) after two letters setting an adequate period for comments (in this case, at least four weeks), there has been no response. The deletion may, however, only be effected after the paid purchase price has been refunded in total. Until then, the notary may only issue certified or executed copies of this Agreement without the above consent to cancellation.

16.3

The Parties on this day already grant precedence to the real property liens created pursuant to Sec. 14 of this Agreement in favour of the financing bank over the priority notice of conveyance. The Parties approve and apply for the registration of the following reservation of priority in the land register:

Priority shall be reserved regarding (aggregate) real property liens still to be registered in favour of the financing bank in the amount of the total purchase price plus 20% interest p.a. as from the time of registration of the reservation of priority and 15% one-time ancillary charge. This priority reservation shall only be used once and only apply to real property liens that are granted with the Buyer’s participation.

16.4	The notary public is authorised to file and withdraw any applications contained in this Deed either separately or with a limited effect only.

Sec. 17

Permits, Pre-emption Rights, References, Instructions for Registration of Transfer of Ownership

17.1

The Parties involved were made aware of the necessary regulatory and private permits and declarations. The officiating notary public is entrusted with the performance of this Agreement including the procurement of the deletion documents. All permits or negative clearances necessary for the effectiveness or performance of this Agreement shall be procured by the notary public and they shall become effective upon receipt by the notary public.

17.2	In the event that a statutory right of pre-emption is exercised or a regulatory permit is denied, or granted subject to obligations or conditions, the notification thereof shall be directly delivered to the Parties involved; a copy to the notary public is requested.

17.3	The Parties involved were made aware of the following:

The Seller and the Buyer are jointly and severally liable for taxes, for the property acquisition tax and for the costs with respect to the Object of Purchase.

Ownership will only be transferred to the Buyer upon registration in the land register. Before the registration of the transfer of ownership, all necessary permits, the clearance certificate by the tax authorities and the declaration of the municipality with respect to the statutory right of pre-emption must be submitted.

The respective owner entered in the land register shall be liable upon delivery of the notice of charges for local improvement charges (Erschließungsbeiträge) pursuant to the Federal Building Code and charges pursuant to the German Act on Local Taxes.

Annex A3 to the Framework Deed

Purchase Agreement Bremerhaven

There are risks attached to advance performances for each Party; to the extent that performance and counter-performance are not balanced in this respect, the notary public encouraged adequate security measures—such as consent to immediate foreclosure, payment of purchase price by means of a notary trust account or provision of bank guaranties —; such security measures with regard to the scope of this Deed despite explicit instructions to both Parties were expressly not desired.

All provisions of this Agreement are subject to notarial recording. Additional agreements not contained in this Deed may lead to the entire legal transaction being void.

It is incumbent solely upon the Parties to examine the consequences of this Agreement with respect to taxes; the notary public assumes no responsibility in this regard.

17.4	The Buyer and the Seller instruct the notary public to file the application for entry in the land register of the transfer of ownership of the Object of Purchase to the Buyer when

it has been determined that no rights of pre-emption exist or that such rights of pre-emption will not be exercised;

any necessary regulatory permits and the clearance certificate of the tax authorities have been submitted;

payment of the purchase price—plus deposit of EUR 60,000.00—pursuant to Sec. 3 of this Agreement has been effected and the Buyer has furnished sufficient proof thereof (bank statement) or payment has been confirmed by the Seller;

deletion of the encumbrances in Section III that are not assumed is guaranteed,

the notary public has not received a declaration of rescission by the Buyer or the Seller before the aforementioned conditions are met.

17.5	The Seller undertakes to immediately confirm the payment of the purchase price in writing to the notary public. All applications to the land register shall be filed exclusively by the notary public.

17.6	To the extent that, pursuant to this Deed, declarations are to be made in the presence of or by the notary public, the notary’s representative or successor shall be equal in position.

18.2	No oral side agreements to this Deed were made. Changes and amendments to this Agreement must be made in writing, unless notarial recording is required by statute. This shall also apply to a change of this provision.

18.3	The Parties hereby agree on Frankfurt am Main as place of jurisdiction, insofar as legally permissible. This Agreement shall be governed by German law.
