INSPECTION AND DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD
3.1 Access. From and after the Effective Date through the Closing Date, Buyer, personally or through its authorized agents or representatives, shall be entitled, upon reasonable advance notice to Seller, to enter upon the Property and to make such investigations, including appraisals, tenant interviews, engineering studies, interviews of governmental and quasi-governmental officials, soil tests, environmental studies and underwriting analyses, as Buyer deems reasonably necessary or advisable. Buyer shall have the right to conduct a Phase I environmental site assessment, and, if desired, a Phase II environmental site assessment (including soils borings, soil sampling and, if relevant, ground water testing, and invasive sampling of building materials with respect to the Property). Buyer’s activities at the Property shall be conducted in such a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with the rights of the Tenants under the Leases.

Seller shall have the option to have a representative present at any and all such on-site inspections or interviews. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any physical damages arising out of inspections and/or investigations by Buyer or its agents or independent contractors; provided, however, and notwithstanding the foregoing, that Buyer shall not be liable for any pre-existing conditions at the Property.
3.2 Due Diligence Period. Buyer shall have until 5:00 pm Eastern time on the day which is forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date (the “Due Diligence Period”) to conduct such due diligence review of the Property, all of the items to be furnished by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.3 below and all records and other materials related thereto as Buyer deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the option to extend the Due Diligence Period for one (1) additional period of ten (10) days (the “Extension Option”) by providing written notice to Seller of Buyer’s exercise of its Extension Option on or before the date on which the Due Diligence Period was to expire.
3.3 Items to be Provided by Seller. To the extent not previously delivered to Buyer, Seller shall deliver to Buyer all of the items specified on Exhibit E attached hereto (collectively, the “Property Information”) within three (3) Business Days after the Effective Date to the extent such items are in Seller’s (or its affiliates’ or Property Manager’s) possession or control. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 4.1, Seller makes no representations or warranties of any kind with regard thereto. Buyer agrees not to disclose such non-public Property Information, or any of the provisions, terms or conditions thereof, to any party outside of Buyer’s organization other than its legal counsel, lenders, investors, surveyor, title company, broker, accountants, consultants, officers, partners, directors, members and shareholders. Buyer’s obligations under this Section 3.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
3.4 Termination of Property Contracts. Prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall notify Seller of any Property Contract which Buyer wishes to retain and assume as of the Closing, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion. Seller shall terminate all other Property Contracts at Seller’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that if any such Property Contract does not permit Seller to terminate same as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall assume all obligations thereunder until the effective date of the termination, but shall have no liability with regard to events occurring prior to the Closing Date. If Buyer does not provide such notice to Seller, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to assume all Property contracts.
3.5 Buyer’s Possible Early Termination. Buyer shall have the right to approve, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, the Property, the Property Information, the Preliminary Report, the Survey, or any other matter whatsoever regarding the Property. On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer may provide written notice to Seller (i) that Buyer wishes to proceed to Closing (an “Approval Notice”); (ii) disapproving the Property (“Disapproval Notice”), or (iii) exercising Buyer’s Extension Option. Buyer’s failure to provide an Approval Notice or a Disapproval Notice prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (as may have been extended pursuant to Section 3.2) shall be deemed Buyer’s disapproval of the Property. Upon the giving of a Disapproval Notice or the deemed disapproval of the Property, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and the provisions of Section 3.6 shall apply. If Buyer delivers an Approval Notice, Buyer shall deposit, within three (3) Business Day after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, with Escrow Holder an additional deposit in the amount of Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Additional Deposit”).

This Agreement shall immediately terminate upon the giving of a Disapproval Notice or upon deemed disapproval pursuant to Section 3.5, as applicable, and the parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement (except with respect to any provisions that by their terms expressly survive a termination of this Agreement); provided, however and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, that if Seller is in default hereunder at the time of such termination, Section 6.2 shall additionally apply. Escrow Holder shall pay the entire Deposit to Buyer not later than one (1) Business Day following receipt of Buyer’s Disapproval Notice or Buyer’s deemed disapproval of the Property pursuant to Section 3.5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no notice to Escrow Holder from Seller shall be required for the release of the Deposit to Buyer by Escrow Holder under this Section, and the Deposit shall be released and delivered to Buyer upon Escrow Holder’s receipt of Buyer’s Disapproval Notice or upon Buyer’s deemed disapproval of the Property pursuant to Section 3.5, despite any objection or potential objection by Seller.

Buyer shall pay (i) all costs associated with its investigation of the Property, including the cost of appraisals, architectural, engineering, Survey, credit and environmental reports; (ii) all title insurance premiums and title examination costs; (iii) all escrow charges and (iv) all state and local grantee’s taxes to be paid pursuant to Va. Code § 58.1-801 and recording fees. Seller shall pay (i) the cost of preparing the Deeds; and (ii) all state and local grantor’s taxes to be paid pursuant to Va. Code § 58.1-802. All other customary purchase and sale closing costs shall be paid by Seller or Buyer in accordance with the custom in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.
5.6.2 Prorations. The following shall be prorated, credited, debited and adjusted between Seller and Buyer as of 12:01 a.m. on the day of the Closing (except as otherwise provided) in accordance with this section. For purposes of calculating prorations, Buyer shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and therefore entitled to the income and responsible for the expenses, for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs.
(a) Current Rents. All collected, current rents, including payments for taxes, utilities, common area maintenance, operating expenses, or insurance, or additional charges of any other nature (collectively “CAM”), based on a rental statement prepared by Seller and approved by Buyer.
(b) CAM; Impounds; Reconciliation. The provisions of this subparagraph (b) shall apply in furtherance of the proration of tenant rents with respect to CAM under subparagraph (a) above:
12 |
(i) Where the Leases provide for the payment of any CAM in arrears after being billed therefor by Seller, Seller shall be responsible for billing all unpaid CAM charges under the Leases for all collection periods ending prior to the Closing, and shall be further responsible for providing to Buyer, as soon as is reasonably practicable after the Closing, a final determination of any CAM owed by the Tenants for the period prior to the date of Closing, together with all relevant back-up, paid invoices, receipts, and other materials. The collection and remitting of any CAM unpaid as of the Closing shall be governed by the provisions of subparagraph (c) below regarding the post-closing collection of Unpaid Rents.
(ii) Where Seller has collected any portion of CAM on an estimated basis, pursuant to so-called “impounds,” or otherwise in advance, then the remaining provisions of this subparagraph (b) shall apply. If Seller’s collection of such amounts is in excess of the amounts actually paid by Seller for the items comprising CAM for the period prior to Closing, then Buyer shall receive a credit at Closing for the excess amounts collected. Buyer shall apply all such excess amounts to the charges owed by Buyer for such items for the period after the Closing and, if required by the Leases, shall rebate or credit the Tenant with any remainder. If it is determined that the amount collected during Seller’s ownership period was less than the amounts actually paid by Seller for such items for the period prior to the Closing, then the collection and remitting of such amounts shall be governed by the provisions of subparagraph (c) below regarding the post-closing collection of Unpaid Rents.
(iii) At least five (5) Business Days prior to Closing, Seller shall prepare for Buyer’s reasonable approval an estimated proration statement reconciling the amounts paid by the Tenants in respect of CAM and the amounts actually paid by Seller therefor. Such statement shall set forth the parties’ estimate of the Buyer’s closing credit (if any), or of the amount to which Seller might be entitled with respect to its period of ownership (if any). If any of the aforesaid prorations cannot be definitely calculated accurately as of the Closing, then they shall be recalculated as soon as practicable, but no more than sixty (60) days, after the Closing. As soon as is practicable, but no more than sixty (60) days after the Closing, Seller shall conduct a final reconciliation of any such overpayment or underpayment under the Leases to the date of Closing and shall provide such final reconciliation to Buyer, together with all relevant back-up, paid invoices, receipts, and other materials; and if such final reconciliation indicates that Buyer was entitled to a larger credit with respect to the same than Buyer received at Closing, Seller shall immediately remit the shortfall to Buyer.
(iv) Seller shall be responsible for conducting and completing all reconciliations of CAM charges versus any collections or impound therefor, and for billing all unpaid CAM charges, to the Tenant for all lease years prior to the Closing pursuant to the terms of the Leases. The collection and remitting of any CAM unpaid as of the Closing shall be governed by the provisions of subparagraph (c) below regarding the post-closing collection of Unpaid Rents.
13 |
(c) Unpaid Rents. As used herein, the term “Unpaid Rents” means any Tenant rentals and other sums (however denominated and including without limitation unpaid CAM) owed to Seller from the Tenant and not paid as of the Closing Date. Seller hereby assigns to Buyer without warranty any and all Unpaid Rents. Seller specifically acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall have the right to compromise, forgive or otherwise deal with Unpaid Rents in respect of the tenant owing the same, which dealing may result in economic advantage to Buyer, all without liability or obligation to Seller. Provided, however, that if any Unpaid Rents are not otherwise forgiven, compromised or dealt with, such Unpaid Rent, if and when collected by Buyer, shall be applied first to any unpaid rent and other sums owed to Buyer from the Tenant accruing after the Closing through the date of collection, with any remaining amounts allocable to the period prior to Closing being paid to Seller (after deduction of all collection costs including attorneys’ fees). Without limiting the foregoing, Seller specifically agrees not to undertake any effort to collect unpaid rent or other sums (however denominated) owed to Seller from any person if such person or any affiliate of such person is in possession of any space in the Property at the time of any such collection effort.
(d) Property Contracts. Prepaid charges in connection with any Property Contracts that Buyer elects to assume, or licenses or permits, shall be credited to Seller. Accrued charges in connection with such Property Contracts, or licenses or permits, shall be credited to Buyer.
(e) Property Taxes. All real property taxes for the year immediately preceding the year of Closing that are payable in the year of Closing, and for years prior thereto, shall be paid by Seller on or before the Closing. Except to the extent such items are the responsibility of the Tenant, real property taxes for the year of Closing shall be prorated on the basis of the most recent assessment and levy. Any and all refunds, credits, claims or rights to appeal respecting the amount of any real property taxes or other taxes or assessments charged in connection with the Property for any period shall belong to Buyer following the Closing, except that if prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period Seller has applied for a property tax refund or has appealed the county assessor’s valuation of the Property for any period of time prior to the Closing Date, then Seller shall be entitled to any refund applicable to such period (unless such refund must be credited to the Tenant of the Property by Buyer, in which case such refund shall belong to Buyer to the extent of such required credits to the Tenant).
(f) Private Assessments. Except to the extent such items are the responsibility of the Tenant, payments due under any assessments imposed by private covenant shall be prorated as of the Closing.
(g) Utilities. Except to the extent such items are the responsibility of the Tenant, prepaid water, sewer, and other utility charges shall be credited to Seller, and accrued water, sewer, and other utility charges shall be credited to Buyer.
(h) Other Items. All other items customarily prorated or required by any other provision of this Agreement to be prorated or adjusted.
5.6.3 Credits.
(a) Security Deposits. The Buyer shall receive at credit at Closing from the Seller in the amount of the sum or the Tenant Deposits.
5.6.4 Re-prorations. At Closing, the amount of prorations and adjustments as aforesaid shall be determined or estimated to the extent practicable, and monetary adjustment shall be made between Seller and Buyer. As the amounts of the respective items become finally ascertained, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, further adjustment shall be promptly made between the parties in cash.
14 |
5.6.5 Survival. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive the Closing.
5.7 Distribution of Funds and Documents. At the Close of Escrow, Escrow Holder shall do each of the following:
5.7.1 Recorded Documents. Submit to the Clerk’s Office the Circuit Court of Hanover, County, Virginia, the Deeds and each other document to be recorded under the terms of this Agreement or by general usage.
5.7.2 Non-Recorded Documents. Promptly after the Closing Date, deliver by overnight courier (or as otherwise requested by the intended recipient): (i) the Title Policy to Buyer; (ii) each other non-recorded document received hereunder to the payee or person acquiring rights thereunder or for whose benefit said document was acquired; (iii) a copy of each recorded document, conformed to show the recording data thereon, to each party; and (iv) a fully executed original of each other closing document.
5.7.3 Distribution of Funds. Deliver (i) to Seller, or order, the cash portion of the Purchase Price, adjusted for prorations, charges and other credits and debits provided for herein; and (ii) to Buyer, or order, any excess funds delivered to Escrow Holder by Buyer. Such funds shall be delivered by wire transfer or cashier’s check in accordance with instructions for Seller and Buyer; if no instructions are given, Escrow Holder shall deliver such funds by Escrow Holder’s check via overnight courier (or as otherwise requested by the intended recipient) to the appropriate party at the address set forth for notice in this Agreement. This Section 5.9 shall survive the Close of Escrow.
5.8 Completion of Documents. Escrow Holder is authorized to insert the date of Closing and otherwise to complete the documents deposited in Escrow, where appropriate and in a manner consistent with this Agreement.
5.9 Possession and Tenant Notices. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Buyer by Seller at the Closing, subject only to the rights of the Tenants under the Leases, rights arising under any Property Contracts not terminated by Seller pursuant to Section 3.4 above, and rights arising under the matters set forth in the Preliminary Report and permitted as part of the Required Title Condition. Seller and Buyer covenant and agree to execute at Closing a written notice of the acquisition of the Property by Buyer, in sufficient copies for transmittal to the Tenants affected by the sale and purchase of the Property and properly addressed to the Tenants. Such notice shall be prepared by the Seller, at the Seller’s sole cost and expense, and approved by the Buyer in its reasonable discretion, shall notify the Tenants of the sale and transfer and shall contain appropriate instructions relating to the payment of future rentals, the giving of future notices and other matters reasonably required by Buyer or required by law. Unless a different procedure is required by applicable law, in which event such laws shall be controlling, Buyer agrees to transmit or otherwise deliver such letters to the Tenant promptly after the Closing.

ARTICLE 6
TERMINATION AND DEFAULT
6.1 Buyer Default. If the sale contemplated hereby is not consummated because of a material default by Buyer in its obligation to purchase the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, after Seller has performed or tendered performance of all of its material obligations in accordance with this Agreement, then, upon written notice from Seller to Buyer, (a) this Agreement shall terminate; (b) the Deposit shall be paid to and retained by Seller as liquidated damages; and (c) Seller and Buyer shall have no further obligations to each other, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. Buyer and Seller acknowledge that the damages to Seller in the event of such a breach of this Agreement by Buyer would be difficult or impossible to determine, that the amount of the Deposit represents the parties’ best and most accurate estimate of the damages that would be suffered by Seller if the transaction should fail to close and that such estimate is reasonable under the circumstances existing as of the date of this Agreement and under the circumstances that Seller and Buyer reasonably anticipate would exist at the time of such breach. Buyer and Seller agree that Seller’s right to retain the Deposit shall be Seller’s sole remedy, at law and in equity, for Buyer’s failure to purchase the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Seller hereby waives any right to an action for specific performance of any provisions of this Agreement.
6.2 Seller’s Default. If the sale contemplated hereby is not consummated because of a material default of Seller, then, so long as Buyer has performed or tendered performance of all of Buyer’s material obligations in accordance with this Agreement, and upon written notice from Buyer to Seller, Buyer shall have the right to exercise any of the following remedies:
6.2.1 Waive such failure and proceed to the Closing with no reduction in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that this provision will not limit Buyer’s right to receive reimbursement for reasonable attorney’s fees pursuant to Section 9.9 below in connection with any legal proceedings instituted by either party or Escrow Holder with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement, nor waive or affect Seller’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement or Buyer’s rights to enforce those indemnity obligations, nor waive or affect any of Seller’s other obligations under this Agreement to be performed after the Closing or Buyer’s rights to enforce those obligations.
6.2.2 Treat this Agreement as being in full force and effect and pursue an action for specific performance to cause Seller to convey the Property to Buyer pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, Buyer must commence any such actions for specific performance within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date.
6.2.3 Terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller to that effect, in which event the parties hereto shall have no further obligations hereunder except those which expressly survive termination hereof, and Buyer shall be entitled to (i) recover the full amount of the Deposit, and (ii) recover up to $20,000.00 for actual third-party out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with Buyer’s inspection and due diligence investigation of the Property.
16 |
6.2.4 Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Buyer waives any right to pursue any other remedy at law or equity for such default of Seller, including, without limitation, any right to seek, claim or obtain damages, punitive damages or consequential damages.
ARTICLE 7
CASUALTY DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION
7.1 Casualty. If the Improvements are damaged by casualty prior to the Closing and the cost for repair is reasonably estimated by Seller to exceed the sum of $300,000.00, Buyer shall have the option, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to elect either to:
(a) acquire the Property as is (without reduction in the Purchase Price), plus an assignment from Seller without recourse or credit of any insurance proceeds payable by virtue of such loss or damage, plus a credit for any deductible under said policy and a credit for any uninsured loss; or
(b) terminate this Agreement and receive back the Deposit.
Such right must be exercised within thirty (30) days from the earlier of the date Seller provides Buyer with notice of the loss of the event giving rise to such right. If Buyer fails to provide notice of an election, then Buyer shall have been deemed to elect (b) above.
If the Improvements are damaged by casualty prior to Closing and the cost for repair is reasonably estimated by Seller (as set forth in this Section 7.1) not to exceed the sum of $300,000.00, then Buyer shall acquire the Property in accordance with Section 7.1(a) of this Agreement.
7.2 Condemnation. In the event that a condemnation proceeding shall be initiated against any material portion of the Real Property prior to the Closing, Buyer shall have the option, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to elect either to:
(a) terminate this Agreement and receive back the Deposit; or
(b) close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
In all other cases, or if Buyer elects to proceed under Section 7.2(b), Buyer shall purchase the Property in accordance with the terms hereof (without reduction in the Purchase Price) and Seller shall assign to Buyer at Closing all condemnation proceeds payable as a result of such condemnation. Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under Section 7.2(b) unless, within thirty (30) days from the earlier of written notice of the condemnation, Buyer provides Seller with written notice that Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(a).
17 |
ARTICLE 8
REAL ESTATE COMMISSION
8.1 Commissions. Buyer and Seller each represent to the other that no broker’s or real estate commissions or other fees are or shall be due in respect to this transaction by reason of any agreement made or which may be alleged to have been made by Buyer or Seller other than to Commonwealth Commercial Partners, LLC, which has represented Seller in this transaction. Buyer is not represented by a broker in this transaction. Oral or written notification was provided to both parties regarding brokerage representation prior to any substantive real estate discussions. At Closing, Seller shall pay a commission totaling two and one quarter percent (2.25%) of the Purchase Price to Commonwealth Commercial Partners, LLC pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement. Each party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against any and all other claims, demands or the cost or expense thereof, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of any broker’s commission, fee or other compensation due or alleged to be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon an agreement alleged to have been made or other action alleged to have been taken by the indemnifying party.

20 |
9.16 Construction of Agreement. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties, it being recognized that both Buyer and Seller have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.
9.17 Severability. The parties hereto intend and believe that each provision in this Agreement comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision in this Agreement is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal law, statute, ordinance, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, or if in any other respect such a court declares any such provision to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all parties hereto that, consistent with and with a view towards preserving the economic and legal arrangements among the parties hereto as expressed in this Agreement, such provision shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible extent, and that the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable provision were not contained herein, and that the rights, obligations and interests of the parties under the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
9.18 Exclusivity. After the Effective Date, Seller and its respective agents, representatives and employees shall immediately cease all marketing of the Property until such time as this Agreement is terminated and Seller shall not directly or indirectly make, accept, negotiate, entertain or otherwise pursue any offers for the sale of the Property.
9.19 Section 1031 Exchange. Either party may consummate the purchase or sale of the Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (an “Exchange”) pursuant to section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provided that (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of an Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of any Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to a party’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) any party desiring an Exchange shall effect its Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a qualified intermediary and the other party shall not be required to take an assignment of the purchase agreement for the relinquished or replacement property or be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating such Exchange; and (iii) the party desiring an Exchange shall pay any additional costs that would not otherwise have been incurred by Buyer or Seller had such party not consummated its purchase or sale through an Exchange. Neither party shall by this agreement or acquiescence to an Exchange desired by the other party (1) have its rights under this Agreement affected or diminished in any manner or (2) be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the other party that such party’s Exchange in fact complies with section 1031 of the Code.
9.20 Record Access and Retention. At Buyer’s request, Seller shall promptly provide to Buyer (at Buyer’s expense) copies of, or shall provide Buyer reasonable access to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Buyer, and in the possession or control of Seller, or its property manager or accountants, to enable Buyer’s auditor to conduct an audit, in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X, of the income statements of the Property for the year to date of the year in which Closing occurs plus the two (2) immediately preceding calendar years (provided, however, that other than fees paid or payable to Seller, a Seller affiliate or a third party for on-site property management, such audit shall not include an audit of asset management fees internally allocated by Seller (as opposed to paid to a third party) or interest expenses attributable to the Seller). Buyer shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs associated with any such audit. Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Buyer’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, to the extent available Seller agrees to provide to Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the Property, including (without limitation) income and balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Buyer or its designated independent or other auditor may audit Seller’s operating statements of the Property, at Buyer’s expense, and, to the extent available, Seller shall provide such documentation as Buyer or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, and (ii) Seller shall, to the extent available, furnish to Buyer such financial and other information as may be reasonably required by Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer to make any required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental authority.
