  (i) Seller’s (but not Purchaser’s) obligation to close title hereunder to all the Properties, that title to the Required Properties is conveyed at the Closing;

 

  (ii) Seller’s (but not Purchaser’s) obligation to close title hereunder to all the Properties, that the Operating Lease Condition shall be satisfied. Seller acknowledges that Seller’s Corporate Accounting Policy Department, has advised Seller that the Operating Lease Condition, if determined today, would be satisfied;

 

  (iii) Seller’s (but not Purchaser’s) obligation to close title hereunder to all the Properties, that the Aggregate Percentage is not less than 58% and not more than 72% (the “Aggregate Percentage Condition”); and

 

  (iv) Purchaser’s obligation to close title hereunder to all the Properties, that the Aggregate Percentage is not less than 58%.

 

  (d) Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right to waive any or all of the conditions set forth in Section 2(c) which is for its benefit. In the event the closing of title shall not take place for a failure of any of the aforesaid conditions, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon such termination, Seller shall refund the Downpayment to Purchaser and reimburse Purchaser for its Due Diligence Costs as required by Section 13(c) hereof, whereupon neither party shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, except those that by the terms of this Agreement are to survive such termination.

  (ii) all rights, privileges and easements appurtenant to the Lands, including, without limitation, all right, title and interest, if any, in and to all minerals, oil, gas and other hydrocarbon substances, development rights, land use entitlements, including, without limitation, building permits, licenses, permits and certificates, utilities commitments, air rights, water, water rights, sewerage allocations, riparian rights and water stock relating to the Land and any rights-of-way or other appurtenances used in connection with the beneficial use and enjoyment of the Land, and all right, title and interest in and to all roads, easements, rights of way and alleys adjoining or servicing the Land (collectively, “Appurtenances”);

 

  (iii) all buildings and improvements located on the Lands or Leasehold Estates (collectively, “Buildings”);

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conveyance to Purchaser by Seller of each Property shall specifically exclude the following (collectively, “Excluded Items”):(x) furniture, trade fixtures, personal property and non-building related equipment, including, but not limited to, file cabinets, office equipment, supplies, records, documents, audio/visual equipment, artwork, antiques,

 

14


furnishings, oriental or area carpets, plants, security systems and cameras, computers and computer software, telephones and telecommunications equipment, satellite dishes and antennas, cash, coin, safe deposit boxes (including the nests or frames thereof), lockers and free standing vaults, cash dispensing units, ATMs (whether connected to or located within the Buildings or situated as freestanding structures on the Property) and ATM equipment, interior and exterior signs proprietary to Seller, (y) any personal property belonging to Seller and located within any Leased Premises or Release Premises, and (z) any property of a tenant occupying any portion of the Property. All of the Excluded Items are hereby excluded from the Properties to be conveyed hereunder and shall remain the property of Seller or the third party owner thereof.

 

4. Purchase Price. The total purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Properties, subject to adjustment as herein provided, shall equal the sum of the Allocated Purchase Prices for each Property conveyed at the Closing, as each such Allocated Purchase Price is finally determined in the manner set forth in subsection (c) below. The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

 

  (a) An amount equal to the sum of the Allocated Deposits for the Properties (such sum, as it may be modified in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Downpayment”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds within one (1) Business Day of the date hereof to the following account of Seller: Wachovia Bank; Routing and Transit Number: 0530000219; DDA Account Number 5 0000 0000 4331; Attention: Corporate Real Estate. Purchaser’s failure to pay the Downpayment in the time and in the manner hereinbefore shall render this Agreement void ab initio.

 

  (b) The balance of the Purchase Price, by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the Closing Date to an account or accounts designated by Seller.

 

  (c) The Allocated Purchase Price for each Property shall equal the (i) sum of (A) the Initial Estimated Purchase Price of that Property, less an amount equal to the amount of depreciation of that Property (from [April 30th, 2004] through the day preceding the Closing), as determined by Seller in its sole discretion, but in a manner consistent with its customary practices, plus (B) the Capital Amount (if any) for each Property, less an amount equal to the amount of depreciation of any asset that was acquired or constructed with the sums constituting the Capital Amount (from the day such asset went into service through the day of Closing), as determined by Seller in its sole discretion, but in a manner consistent with its customary practices. Additionally, with respect to Demising Work Properties, the Estimated Tenant Reimbursement Amount shall be deducted from the amount determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions to arrive at the Allocated Purchase Price.

 

5. Lease Agreements. Commencing on the Closing Date, Purchaser, as landlord, shall lease to Seller, as tenant, the Leased Premises and the Release Premises at each Property conveyed on the Closing Date (and which contains either Leased Premises or Release Premises) by separate lease agreements in the form set forth on Exhibit P hereto (each, a “Lease Agreement” and, collectively, the “Lease Agreements”).

 

15


6. Closing. The “Closing” shall be the meeting at which Seller transfers ownership of the applicable Properties to Purchaser and Purchaser pays the Purchase Price (as adjusted in accordance with this Agreement) to Seller. The Closing shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of Seller’s counsel, Bryan Cave, LLP, at 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Seller shall be entitled, upon notice to Purchaser from time to time on or before any date scheduled for Closing herein, to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate and (ii) Purchaser shall be entitled, upon notice to Seller from time to time on or before any date scheduled for Closing herein, to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate. Further, Seller shall be entitled to adjourn the Closing as permitted under the terms of this Agreement. Time shall be of the essence as to both parties’ obligation to close title on the Closing Date, as the same may be adjourned in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either party hereto is unable to proceed to Closing on the Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned as aforesaid) by reason of a Force Majeure Event, such party shall not be deemed to be in default of its obligation to proceed to Closing on the Closing Date and the parties shall proceed to Closing as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

7. Title.

 

  (a) On the date of the Closing, the title to a Property conveyed shall be good and marketable, free and clear of all liens, judgments and similar encumbrances, other than the following, which shall be permitted exceptions to title that shall not require Seller to take any action (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”):

 

  (i) any grant, right-of way, easement, covenant, restriction, monetary lien or judgment, other than those which constitute valid Objections;

 

  (ii) any state of facts that an accurate survey would show, other than those which constitute valid Objections;

 

  (iii) zoning regulations, municipal building restrictions and other laws, ordinances, regulations and restrictions of any public or quasi-public authority;

 

  (iv) grants, easements or rights of way required to be given by Seller in accordance with applicable law to governmental entities or to utility and/or power companies; the right of the public in sidewalks and abutting public rights-of-way; and easements required to be given by Seller by applicable law for water course maintenance, slope rights or sight rights;

 

  (v) the lien of current taxes and assessments, subject to adjustment as herein provided;

 

  (vi) special taxes and assessments becoming a lien on or after the applicable date of Closing;

 

16


  (vii) the Lease Agreements, the Leases and any Approved Leases, and title matters which arise by reason of the acts or omissions of the tenants under the Leases and any Approved Leases;

 

  (viii) the terms and conditions in the Overleases;

 

  (ix) the terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents;

 

  (x) any so called reciprocal operating or easement agreement;

 

  (xi) standard terms and exceptions set forth in the form of title insurance policy of any reputable title insurance company authorized to conduct business in the state where the conveyed Property is located;

 

  (xii) any violation of any law or municipal ordinance, order or requirement, now or hereafter issued against a Property by any federal, state or municipal department having jurisdiction over a Property (collectively, “Violations”), and the conditions giving rise to the same;

 

  (xiii) the Option Agreement and any other document or instrument evidencing the Purchase Option, subject to the provisions of Section 28 hereof; and

 

  (xiv) any other matter (x) to which Purchaser is obligated to accept title subject in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (y) which would constitute an Objection or otherwise vary the state of title that Seller is obligated to deliver hereunder, but which is waived (or deemed waived) by Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.

 

  (b) As to each Property, Purchaser shall order, at Purchaser’s expense, (i) a title commitment from a title insurance company authorized to do business in the state in which such Property is located and (ii) an ALTA plat of survey of the Property, prepared by a registered or certified surveyor (the “Survey”). No later than two (2) Business Days following Purchaser’s receipt thereof, Purchaser shall furnish Seller with (x) a copy of the title commitment, together with copies of all instruments referred to therein (collectively, the “Commitment”) and (y) the Survey (the Commitment and the Survey are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Title Materials”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser, in lieu of providing Seller with a hard copy of the Commitment, may provide Seller with internet access thereto, provided that Seller may download and print the same for its records and provided further that in all events Purchaser will furnish Seller with a hard copy of the Survey. Following Purchaser’s receipt of Title Materials which disclose the existence of Objections with respect to a Property, Purchaser may, on or before the Title Objection Date, furnish Seller with a Title Objection Notice. Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived objection to the state of title to a Property unless Purchaser furnishes Seller with a Title Objection Notice with respect to such Property on or before the Title Objection Date. As to any Property with respect to which Purchaser has waived objection to the state of title as

 

17


hereinbefore provided, Purchaser shall close title thereto without abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise against Seller by reason of the state of title to such Property. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

  (i) The term “Objections” shall mean any monetary liens, judgments, easements, restrictions or other title defects, or any state of facts that an accurate survey or inspection would disclose, which are not Permitted Exceptions and which (x) would render title to a Property unmarketable and uninsurable by a reputable title insurance company at regular rates, provided that Purchaser is prepared to pay all premiums and fees and take such other measures as are reasonably or customarily taken by the owners of real property to acquire an owner’s policy of title insurance and (y) would materially, adversely affect the value of the Property or materially restrict or impair the operation thereof for its current use;

 

  (ii) Review Period Expiration Date” shall mean, with respect to each Property, the date which is ten (10) days after Purchaser receives all of the Title Materials for such Property, unless Purchaser, on or before the expiration of such ten (10) day period, furnishes Seller with written notice that Purchaser requires additional time to review the state of title to such Property, in which event the Review Period Expiration Date shall be the date which is twenty (20) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Title Materials;

 

  (iii) Title Objection Date” shall mean, with respect to each Property, the date which is the sooner to occur of (i) the Review Period Expiration Date and (ii) the expiration of the Due Diligence Period for such Property (without regard to whether Purchaser has obtained, or furnished Seller with, the Title Materials for such Property); and

 

  (iv) Title Objection Notice” shall mean a notice by Purchaser to Seller objecting to Title Objections, which such notice shall identify with reasonable specificity the Title Objections to which Purchaser objects.

 

  (c) Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing, notify Seller in writing (the “Gap Notice”) of any Objections that first arise from and after the date hereof. If such later Objections come into existence and Purchaser sends a Gap Notice to Seller, Purchaser and Seller shall have the same rights and obligations with respect to such notice as apply to a Title Objection Notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.

 

  (d) Notwithstanding any contrary term herein, a monetary lien or judgment against Seller shall not constitute an Objection if a title insurance company authorized to do business in the state in which the affected Property is located agrees that it will insure title free of such monetary lien or judgment to Purchaser, its successors and

 

18


assigns, including, without limitation, future purchasers (“Successor”), or with affirmative insurance against the enforcement of such monetary lien or objection against the affected Property to Purchaser and any Successor, and such removal or affirmative coverage does not require Purchaser or any Successor to defend at its expense an action brought on any such monetary lien or objection.

 

  (e) If Purchaser furnishes Seller with a Title Objection Notice with respect to a Property in accordance with Section 7(b), or Purchaser furnishes Seller with a Gap Notice with respect to a Property in accordance with Section 7(c), Seller shall have the right, in its sole discretion, upon notice to Purchaser on or before Seller’s Election Date (in the former case) and ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of a Gap Notice (in the latter case), to either (i) endeavor to cure the Objections noted therein, in which event Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments, not to exceed seventy five (75) Business Days in the aggregate, to afford Seller time to cure the Objection or (ii) terminate this Agreement as to the Property affected or encumbered by the Objections noted therein, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect with respect to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect thereto, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

  (f) If Seller endeavors to cure an Objection in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(e), but does not do so on or before the Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned by Seller in accordance with the provisions of said Section 7(e)), this Agreement shall be deemed terminated as of the Closing Date as to the affected Property only (and shall remain in full force and effect as to the remaining Properties), whereupon the provisions with respect to the removal of Properties set forth in this Section 7 shall apply.

 

  (g) If Seller terminates this Agreement with respect to any Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(e), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property, by providing Purchaser with the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed

 

19


Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable.)

 

  (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7, in no event shall Purchaser have the right to raise any Objection, or terminate this Agreement as to, any Required Property, unless the Objection raised by Purchaser is with respect to a matter that first arises after the date of this Agreement.

 

  (i) Notwithstanding any contrary term set forth in this Section 7, Purchaser may, upon written notice to Seller at any time on or before the Closing Date, elect to accept such title to a Property as Seller can convey, notwithstanding the existence of Objections. In such event, this Agreement shall continue in force and effect with respect to such Property, the parties shall proceed to Closing and Purchaser shall not be entitled to any abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise by reason of the Objections.

 

  (j) The sale includes whatever right, title and interest Seller has in and to the equipment and fixtures presently on each Property that are appurtenant to or used in the operation thereof (subject to the exclusions set forth in Section 3). Seller makes no representations as to the quality, kind or condition thereof, and Purchaser agrees to take the same “WHERE-IS” and “AS-IS.”

 

  (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7, in no event shall the provisions of this Section 7 be interpreted or otherwise construed as requiring Seller to warrant title to the Property except as may be set forth in the Deeds delivered pursuant to Section 9(a)(i).

 

8. Service and Maintenance Contracts; Leases.

 

  (a) Within twenty (20) Business Days following the date hereof with respect to the Initial Properties, and within twenty (20) Business Days following the designation of a Substitute Property, Seller shall furnish Purchaser with a schedule of any and all maintenance, management, service and other contracts for the applicable Property or Properties that Seller desires Purchaser to assume at Closing (collectively, the “Service Contracts”). The schedule shall set forth, at a minimum, the name of the contractor, a description of the services rendered under the contract, the expiration date of the term of the contract and the approximate annual contract cost. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser acknowledges that certain of the Service Contracts may not be assignable without the consent of the contractors thereunder. Further, Seller may be under an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of certain Service Contracts, unless such obligation is waived by the contractors thereunder. At Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall assume, all previously scheduled Service Contracts, but only to the extent (i) the same are freely assignable or, if required, Seller has obtained the consent of the contractors to the assignment thereof and (ii) the same are not

 

20


subject to an obligation of confidentiality on the part of Seller, unless such obligation has been waived by the contractors thereunder. In addition, Seller shall not assign to Purchaser any Service Contracts that pertain to properties other than the Properties, unless Seller shall have succeeded in severing the provisions thereof that pertain to properties other than the Properties from the terms of such Service Contracts. Seller shall retain or terminate all Service Contracts that Seller does not assign to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8(a). Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless from and against all claims for payment or breach of contract by such contractors for services with respect to such Property rendered prior to the date of assignment and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against all claims for payment or breach of contract by such contractors for services with respect to such Property rendered following the date of assignment. Such indemnity shall include, in each case, reasonable attorneys’ fees. The foregoing provisions of this Section 8(a) shall survive Closing.

 

  (b) Seller hereby agrees that from and after the date hereof, Seller shall not enter into any leases of or contracts for any Property, the term of which leases or contracts extend beyond the Closing or are not terminable without penalty on not more than thirty (30) days notice, without Purchaser’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, without Purchaser’s consent, may enter into any lease which demises less than 5,000 of Net Leasable Area, provided that the same is for fair market rent and is otherwise upon market terms and conditions (a “Permissible Lease”). Within five (5) Business Days following Seller’s request therefor from time to time, accompanied by a copy of a proposed lease, Purchaser shall advise Seller whether, in Purchaser’s determination, such lease constitutes a Permissible Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Purchaser’s determination that a proposed lease does not constitute a Permissible Lease, Purchaser’s failure to respond to a request for any such determination nor Seller’s failure to make any such request shall in any way impair Seller’s right to enter into, or impair the validity of, a Permissible Lease. Seller shall not enter into any lease that is not a Permissible Lease without first obtaining Purchaser’s consent thereto. Such consent may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion and shall be deemed given unless Purchaser affirmatively withholds the same within (10) Business Days of its receipt from Seller of a request for consent thereto, accompanied by a copy of the proposed lease. If Seller enters into a Permissible Lease or any other lease to which Purchaser shall have consented (or to which Purchaser is deemed to have consented), such Lease shall constitute an “Approved Lease”. Purchaser shall pay upon Closing for all tenant improvement, brokerage and other leasing costs in connection with any Approved Lease (collectively, “Leasing Costs”).

All apportionments shall be based upon a three hundred sixty (360) day year and a thirty (30) day month, and the net amount of all apportionments and other payments required hereunder shall be added (if such net amount is in Seller’s favor) or deducted from (if such net amount is in Purchaser’s favor) the payment of the Purchase Price required under this Agreement. More particularly:

 

  (i) all (x) fixed or so-called base rent payments (“Fixed Rents”), and (y) reimbursements or payments in respect of operating expenses, real estate taxes, and other charges (collectively, “Overage Rent”, together with Fixed Rents, shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as, “Rents”) paid pursuant to Leases for the month in which the Closing occurs, shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser as of 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Closing Date.

 

  (ii) Sewer rents and taxes, water rates and charges (to the extent not accounted for pursuant to clause (i) above or (iii) below), vault charges and taxes, business improvement district taxes and assessments and any other governmental taxes, charges or assessments levied or assessed against the Property and customarily apportioned in the sale of similar properties located where the applicable Property is located (collectively, “Property

 

26


Taxes”), shall be apportioned on the basis of the fiscal period for which assessed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Taxes with respect to Properties located in the State of North Carolina shall be apportioned on a calendar year basis in accordance with local, customary practices. If the Closing Date shall occur either before an assessment is made or a tax rate is fixed for the tax period in which the applicable closing date occurs, the apportionment of such Property Taxes based thereon shall be made at the applicable closing date by applying the latest tax rate to the latest assessed valuation, but, promptly after the assessment and/or tax rate for the current year are fixed, the apportionment thereof shall be recalculated and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly make an appropriate payment to the other based on such recalculation. If, as of the Closing Date, any Property shall be affected by special or general assessments which are or may become payable in installments, the first installment of which is then due and payable and a lien against such Property, Seller shall pay the unpaid installments of such assessments which are due prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall pay the installments that are due on or after the Closing Date.

 

  (iii) The amounts of all electric, gas, steam, sewer and water charges (collectively, “Utilities”) for which tenants under Leases are not responsible shall be apportioned by Seller and Purchaser. Seller shall attempt to have all utility meters read as of the Closing Date. Utilities shall be apportioned based on the most recent meter reading of bill and appropriate adjustment shall be made when a final reading or bill is obtained.

 

  (iv) prepaid fees for licenses and other permits assigned to Purchaser at the Closing or which comprise Intangible Personal Property shall be apportioned.

 

  (v) any amounts prepaid or payable by Seller under Service Contracts (if any) are to be apportioned.

 

  (vi) all fixed rent paid or payable by Seller as the tenant under any Overleases shall be apportioned by Seller and Purchaser.

 

  (b) The following provisions of this subsection (b) shall apply to each Property:

 

  (i) If, on the Closing Date, there are any past due Rents owing by any tenant under a Lease, Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect the same. Purchaser shall not be obligated to institute legal proceedings against any tenant to collect such past due Rents, but Seller shall retain its right to institute legal proceedings against such tenant in the event payment has not been received within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date; provided, however, that no such proceedings shall seek the

 

27


eviction of the tenant or the termination of a Lease. Any Rents received directly or indirectly by Seller or Purchaser following the Closing which are the property of the party, shall be deemed held in trust and shall be paid to the other within five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof. Upon Seller’s request from time to time, Purchaser shall provide a certified accounting of all Rents received by it following Closing.

 

  (ii) Any Fixed Rent received (net of Purchaser’s reasonable costs of collection) from any tenant after the Closing shall be applied in the following order of priority: (A) first, to Fixed Rent arrearages with respect to the month in which the Closing Date occurs (subject to apportionment pursuant to Section 12(a)(i)), (B) second, to Purchaser, until Fixed Rent for all current periods is paid in full, and (C) third, after Fixed Rent for all current periods is paid in full, to Seller in payment of Fixed Rent for periods prior to the month in which the Closing occurs.

 

  (iii) As to Overage Rent in respect of an accounting period that shall have expired prior to the Closing, but which shall be paid after the Closing, Purchaser agrees that it will pay the entire amount over to Seller upon receipt thereof, less any costs of collection (including reasonable counsel fees) reasonably allocable thereto. Purchaser agrees that it shall (i) promptly render bills for any Overage Rent in respect of an accounting period that shall have expired prior to Closing but which shall be paid after the Closing, (ii) bill tenants who such Overage Rent attributable to an accounting period that shall have expired prior to the closing, on a monthly basis for a period of six consecutive months and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts in the collection of Overage Rent, provided, however, that Purchaser shall have no obligation to commence any actions or proceedings to collect any such Overage Rents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser shall be unable to collect such Overage Rent despite using its commercially reasonable efforts to do so, Seller shall have the right, upon prior written notice to Purchaser, to pursue tenants to collect such delinquencies (including, without limitation, the prosecution of one or more lawsuits), but Seller shall not be entitled to evict (by summary proceedings or otherwise) any such tenants or terminate their leases. Seller shall furnish to Purchaser all information relating to the period prior to the closing that is reasonably necessary for the billing of such Overage Rent; and Purchaser will deliver to Seller, concurrently with the delivery to Tenants, copies of all statements relating to Overage Rent for periods prior to the Closing.

 

  (iv) Overage Rent in respect of the accounting period in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser as of 11:59 P.M. of the day preceding the Closing Date, with Seller entitled to receive the proportion of such Overage Rent (less a like portion of any costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in the collection of

 

28


such Overage Rent), that the portion of such accounting period prior to such closing bears to the entire such accounting period and Purchaser entitled to receive the proportion of such Overage Rent (less a like portion of any costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in the collection of such Overage Rent) that the portion of such accounting period from and after the date of closing bears to the entire such accounting period. If prior to the Closing, as the case may be, Seller shall receive any installments of Overage Rent attributable to Overage Rent for periods from and after the Closing, such sum shall be apportioned at the Closing.

 

  (v) Any payment by a tenant on account of Overage Rent (to the extent not applied against Fixed Rents due and payable by such tenant in accordance with Section 12(b)(ii)) shall be applied against Overage Rents then due and payable in the following order of priority, (i) first, in payment of installments of Overage Rent for the month in which the Closing occurs (subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 12(b)(iv)), (ii) second, in payment of Overage Rent for all current periods, and (iii) after payment in full of Overage Rent for all current periods, in payment of Overage Rent for the period prior to the month in which the Closing occurs.

 

  (vi) To the extent that any portion of the Overage Rent is required to be paid monthly by tenants on account of estimated amounts for the current period, and at the end of each calendar year (or, if applicable, at the end of each lease year or tax year), such estimated amounts are to be recalculated based upon the actual expenses, taxes and other relevant factors for that calendar (lease or tax) year, with the appropriate adjustments being made with such tenants, then such portion of the Overage Rent shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing, based on such estimated payments (i.e., with Seller entitled to retain all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to periods prior to the calendar month in which the date of the closing occurs, Seller to pay to Purchaser at the applicable closing all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to periods following the calendar month in which the applicable closing occurs and Seller and Purchaser to apportion all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to the calendar month in which the applicable closing occurs) and at the time(s) of final calculation and collection from (or refund to) tenants of the amounts in reconciliation of actual Overage Rent for a period for which estimated amounts have been prorated, there shall be a reproration between Seller and Purchaser, with the net credit resulting from such reproration being payable to the appropriate party (i.e., to Seller if the recalculated amounts exceed the estimated amounts and to Purchaser if the recalculated amounts are less than the estimated amounts).

 

29


  (vii) Until such time as all amounts required to be paid to Seller by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12(b) shall have been paid in full, Seller may from to time, but not more frequently than once each calendar quarter, request that Purchaser furnish Seller with a reasonably detailed accounting of the collection of Overage Rent. Within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such request, Purchaser shall furnish Seller with such accounting. Seller shall have the right from time to time following the Closing, on prior notice to Purchaser, to review Purchaser’s rental records with respect to the Properties to ascertain the accuracy of such accountings.

 

  (c) The following items shall also be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser as of 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Closing:

 

  (i) Assessments and other amounts payable under the Condominium Documents;

 

  (ii) Charges and payments under any homeowners’ association or like documents affecting the property identified on the Property Information Schedule as Spring Ridge, One Meridian Blvd., Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, provided the same are customary and reasonable;

 

  (iii) Charges and payments under the REAs and other charges payable to third parties to defray costs incurred in maintaining or operating the Properties and other properties subject to shared maintenance or like agreements.

 

  (d) Seller shall make the following payments to Purchaser at the Closing:

 

  (i) the cash security deposits (and other security documents) held by Seller as security under the Leases (which security deposits may, as Seller elects, be paid by adjustment(s) to the Purchase Price or by assignment(s) of the accounts in which such deposits are held or assignment(s) of the instruments evidencing the security;

 

  (ii) with respect to each Property containing Leased Premises, the (x) fixed rent and the Operating Expense Estimate Payment, in both cases due for the balance of the month in which the Closing occurs, and (y) the Real Estate Tax Estimate Payment; and

 

  (iii) such other payments, which Seller is obligated to make at the applicable closing under the terms of this Agreement.

 

  (e) Purchaser shall, in addition to the Purchase Price, pay to Seller the aggregate Leasing Costs and shall make such other payments, which under the terms of this Agreement Purchaser is obligated to make at the applicable closing.

 

  (f) Closing Adjustment Preparations.

 

  (i) Five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser and/or their respective agents or designees will jointly prepare a preliminary closing statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) which will show the net amount due either to Seller or to Purchaser as the result of the adjustments and payments provided for under this Agreement.

 

30


  (ii) Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing, Seller and Purchaser will jointly prepare a final closing statement reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser (the “Final Closing Statement”) setting forth the final determination of the adjustments and payments provided for under this Agreement and setting forth any items which are not capable of being determined at such time. The net amount due Seller or Purchaser, if any, by reason of adjustments to the Preliminary Closing Statement as shown in the Final Closing Statement, shall be paid in cash by the party obligated therefore within five (5) Business Days following preparation of the Final Closing Statement. The Final Closing Statement shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto, except to the extent that any such determinations are not able to be finally determined until a later date (such as Overage Rent and Property Taxes) or are expressly subject to a longer survival period hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that any items which are not capable of being determined at the time the Final Closing Statement shall be finally determined and adjusted by Seller and Purchaser as soon as is practicable.

 

  (iii) Prior to and following the applicable closing, each party shall provide the other with such information as the other shall reasonably request (including, without limitation, access to the books, records, files and ledgers) information and data with respect to the Properties during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice in order to make the preliminary and final adjustments provided for herein.

 

  (g) Seller shall be responsible for all tenant improvement, brokerage and other initial leasing costs in connection with Leases entered into prior to the date hereof. If the Closing takes place, all tenant improvement, brokerage and other leasing costs, if any, for renewals, extensions and expansions of existing Leases exercised after the date hereof, and for Approved Leases, shall be the obligation of Purchaser.

Purchaser expressly acknowledges that Seller shall not reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs upon any termination of this Agreement by Purchaser by reason of the failure or non-satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 2(c)(iv) hereof.

 

14. Default.

 

  (a) If (i) Seller defaults in any of its material obligations to be performed to effect a closing of title on the Closing Date or (ii) Seller defaults in the performance of any of its material obligations to be performed prior to the Closing Date, and (in the case of defaults under this subsection (ii)) such default continues for ten (10) days after written notice to Seller, the sole liability of Seller, and the sole remedy of Purchaser, shall be limited to either (i) terminating this Agreement in its entirety and receiving a return of the Down Payment and, as liquidated damages

 

33


for such default, reimbursement by Seller of Purchaser’s Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs), whereupon this Agreement shall become null and void and the parties shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder, or (ii) a suit by Purchaser for specific performance only. The provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the aforesaid liquidated damages are reasonable and do not constitute a penalty and are being agreed upon due to the difficulty of calculating the actual amount of damages that Purchaser might sustain in the event of a default by Seller and termination of this Agreement.

 

  (b) If (i) Purchaser defaults in the payment of the Purchase Price or if Purchaser defaults in the performance of any of its other material obligations to be performed to effect a closing of title on the Closing Date, or (ii) if Purchaser defaults in any material obligation that is to be performed prior to the Closing Date, and (in the case of defaults under this subsection (ii)) such default continues for ten (10) days after written notice to Purchaser), the sole liability of Purchaser, and the sole remedy of Seller, shall be limited to Seller terminating this Agreement in its entirety and receiving as liquidated damages the Downpayment (which Seller shall be entitled to retain), whereupon this Agreement shall become null and void and the parties shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder. In addition, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller complete copies (with all appendices and exhibits) of all due diligence reports, evaluations, investigations, surveys and title searches in Purchaser’s possession or control (without representation or warranty and with a disclaimer of reliance). The provisions of this subparagraph (b) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the aforesaid liquidated damages are reasonable and do not constitute a penalty and are being agreed upon due to the difficulty of calculating the actual amount of damages that Seller might sustain in the event of a default by Purchaser and termination of this Agreement.

 

  (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 14(a), in the event Seller’s breach is caused by or arises out of regulatory issues, Purchaser’s sole remedy therefor shall be limited to receiving a return of the Down Payment and, as liquidated damages for such breach, reimbursement by Seller of Purchaser’s Due Diligence Costs, whereupon this Agreement shall become null and void in its entirety, and the parties shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder, except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

15. Risk of Loss.

 

  (a) If, prior to Closing, a condemnation proceeding, of other than a de minimus nature, is instituted against a Property or any portion thereof, or if a Property is substantially damaged by fire or other casualty, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property by written notice to Seller given on or

 

34


before fifteen (15) days following the institution of the condemnation proceeding or date of the casualty, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Purchase Price for the Removed Property and Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect thereto, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination. If Purchaser does not so terminate this Agreement in the case of condemnation or substantial damage by fire or other casualty, or if in the case of fire or other casualty to a Property there is less than substantial damage, then in each of such cases, this Agreement shall continue to be effective as to the applicable Property. Seller shall be entitled, but shall not be obligated, to restore damage caused by a casualty, and may use any insurance proceeds for any costs it incurs in repairing such damage or in recovering the proceeds of insurance. Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller’s right to receive any award for such condemnation or insurance proceeds as a result of such damage (but, subject to Seller’s right to receive reimbursement for the costs described in the preceding sentence) together with all of Seller’s rights to litigate such claim and to negotiate a settlement with the condemning authority or the insurance carrier; provided, however, to the extent Seller self-insures (including a deductible amount) against a casualty, then the Purchase Price for the affected Property shall be adjusted to reflect a credit in favor of Purchaser for the amount of such self-insured amount that would otherwise be paid from the insurance proceeds. For purposes of this Section 15, a Property shall be deemed to have been “substantially damaged” if, as determined by an independent architectural firm or general contractor chosen by Seller in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, such damage occurs at a Property that Seller is responsible to restore and such restoration will require more than one hundred eighty (180) days to complete and will cost in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of such Property’s Allocated Purchase Price. Seller agrees to maintain insurance with respect to a casualty which is substantially equivalent to that maintained on the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 15, (i) Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement as to any Property which is substantially damaged by fire or other casualty in the event that such Property would be the subject of a Lease Agreement and under the terms of such Lease Agreement Seller, as tenant, would be entitled to terminate such Lease Agreement and (ii) in no event shall Seller be obligated to assign or pay to Purchaser any insurance proceeds that pertain to the damage of property, which under the terms a Lease Agreement affecting such property, Purchaser would not be obligated to repair and restore. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a fire or other casualty occurs at a Property that would be subject to a Lease Agreement, and Seller, as tenant thereunder, would have the right,

 

35


were the Lease Agreement in effect, to terminate the Lease Agreement, Seller, upon notice to Purchaser within fifteen (15) days of the occurrence of the casualty, may terminate this Agreement as to such Property, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property” and the provisions set forth above with respect to Removed Properties shall apply. If Seller, in any such case, does not terminate this Agreement, Seller shall be deemed to have waived any right accorded to Seller, as tenant under the Lease Agreement, to terminate the Lease Agreement by reason of the occurrence of the casualty.

 

  (b) If Purchaser or Seller terminates this Agreement as to any Removed Property in accordance with the terms of Section 15(a), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property, by providing Purchaser with notice of substitution setting for the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then, in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable).

 

  (c) The provisions of this Section 15 are intended to supercede any inconsistent provision under applicable law and shall survive the Closing.

 

16. Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not dealt with any real estate broker, agent or finder in connection with this Agreement. The parties agree to indemnify and hold one another harmless based upon their actions and dealings from any claims or causes of action concerning brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions. If any claim against Seller is asserted by any person, firm or corporation claiming a commission and/or finder’s fee with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and resulting from any act, representation or promise of Purchaser, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Seller from such claim resulting from any act, representation or promise of Purchaser. If any claim against Purchaser is asserted by any person, firm or corporation claiming a commission and/or a finder’s fee with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and resulting from any act, representation or promise of Seller, Seller shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Purchaser from such claim resulting form any act, representation or promise of Seller. The terms of this Section 16 shall survive Closing.

 

17. Properties “AS-IS”. Purchaser has heretofore inspected the physical and structural condition of each of the Properties and the improvements located thereon, or has waived the opportunity to do so. Purchaser will inspect the environmental condition of the Properties during

 

36


the Due Diligence Period, or will waive its right to do so. Purchaser hereby accepts the physical and structural condition of each Property and the improvements located thereon in their condition on the date hereof and agrees to acquire each such Property, “AS-IS,” “WHERE-IS”, in such condition on the Closing Date, subject to (i) all Violations, whether or not noted as of the date hereof, and the conditions giving rise to the same, (ii) reasonable use and wear and tear and (iii) subject to Section 15, damage due to fire or other casualty or to a taking by condemnation or eminent domain. Purchaser further accepts the environmental condition of each Property in its condition as of the end of the Due Diligence Period for such Property and, subject to the provisions of Section 19, agrees to acquire title to each such Property on the Closing Date, “AS IS”, “WHERE IS”, in such condition on the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 17 shall be interpreted to require Seller to undertake or effect any work or improvement which is capital in nature or which, under generally accepted accounting principles, would be capitalized. The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive Closing.

37


AND AGREES THAT, HAVING BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT EACH PROPERTY, PURCHASER IS RELYING SOLELY ON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF EACH PROPERTY AND NOT ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED OR TO BE PROVIDED BY SELLER.

THIS INSTRUMENT. (This notice is set forth in the manner provided in Section 1 of the Act of July 17, 1957, P.L. 984, as amended, and is not intended as notice of unrecorded instruments, if any.)”

 

  (f) Seller shall request that the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (the “NJDEP”) provide Seller, with respect to each Property located in the State of New Jersey, with a letter to the effect that the New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act, N.J.S.A. §13:1K-6 et. seq. and the regulations promulgated thereunder are not applicable to the transfer of such Property (each, a “Letter of Non-Applicability”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may, upon notice to Purchaser on or before ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof (with respect to the Initial Properties) and within five (5) Business Days after the substitution of any Property for a Removed Property, instruct Purchaser to prepare all affidavits and other documents (collectively, the “ISRA Application Documents”) required for Seller to request a Letter of Non-Applicability from the NJDEP with respect to each Property located in the State of New Jersey. In such event, Purchaser shall, promptly following receipt of instruction from Seller as aforesaid, prepare the ISRA Application Documents and submit the same to Seller, whereupon Seller may make such changes to the ISRA Application Documents as Seller deems appropriate. Seller shall then execute and deliver the ISRA Application Documents to the NJDEP. If Seller, for any reason whatsoever, is unable to obtain a Letter of Non-Applicability for any Property located in the State of New Jersey, Seller may, on or before Seller’s Election Date, terminate this Agreement as to such Property, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

  (g) If Seller terminates this Agreement as to a Removed Property in accordance with the terms of Section 18(f), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property, by providing Purchaser with notice of substitution setting forth the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller

 

40


shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable).

 

  (h) Purchaser and Seller agree that, to the extent any Property constitutes or is deemed to be an “establishment” under the provisions of Connecticut General Statutes Section 22a-134 et seq. (the “Transfer Act”), then (1) if a Form I or a Form II is the appropriate filing under the Transfer Act, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, prepare and submit the applicable Form to Purchaser and shall file such Form with the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (“CTDEP”) within ten (10) days after the Closing, or (2) if a Form III or a Form IV is the appropriate filing under the Transfer Act, Purchaser shall (a) undertake, at its sole cost and expense, all due diligence required to prepare, (b) prepare and file with the CTDEP within ten (10) days after the Closing, (c) be the certifying party with respect to, and (d) pay all filing costs associated with, the applicable Form (including any Environmental Condition Assessment Form) required by the Transfer Act (the “Transfer Act Filing”). To the extent that a Form III or a Form IV is filed with the CTDEP, Purchaser also agrees to make all submissions, post all public notices and otherwise comply with all requirements of the CTDEP relating to post-transfer cleanup and monitoring. As a result of the foregoing, as between Purchaser and Seller, Purchaser shall be the party responsible for any cleanup of hazardous materials or hazardous waste referred to in the Transfer Act Filing, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any liability, including, but not limited to, liability to the State of Connecticut, incurred by Seller as a result of Purchaser’s failure to make the Transfer Act Filing or its failure to undertake and complete any applicable cleanup requirement, provided, however, that ; provided that the forgoing indemnity shall not vitiate any indemnity that Seller may provide pursuant to Section 19(d) of this Agreement.

 

  (i) The provisions of this Section 18 shall survive Closing.

 

19. Due Diligence Period. The obligations of Seller and Purchaser under this Agreement shall be subject to and contingent upon timely satisfaction of the following conditions, which conditions, if not satisfied or waived as hereinafter provided, shall entitle Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, to terminate this Agreement in accordance with (and within the time periods set forth in) this Section 19:

 

  (a) Commencing with the fifth (5th) Business Day following the execution of this Agreement (as to the Initial Properties) and within five (5) Business Days of the substitution of a Property for a Removed Property (as to the Substitute Properties), Seller shall use reasonable efforts to make available to Purchaser, for inspection and copying, the Documents. Purchaser shall make the Documents available at Seller’s offices in Jacksonville, Florida, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or such other location as the Documents are kept in the ordinary course of Seller’s

 

41


business. On or before the date which is fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof (with respect to the Initial Properties) and on or before the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the substitution of a Property for a Removed Property (as to the Substitute Properties), Purchaser may furnish Seller with notice to the effect that Seller has failed to furnish Purchaser with any of the Documents. Thereafter, Seller shall be entitled to such reasonable period of time as shall be necessary to cure such failure. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Documents” shall mean:

 

  (i) to the extent in Seller’s possession or control, copies of (A) all existing and pending Leases, lease files and tenant correspondence, (B) tenant financial statements, (C) any bonds, guaranties or letters of credit provided in lieu of a cash security deposit;

 

  (ii) all income and expense statements, to the extent, and in the form, customarily maintained by Seller or Seller’s agents, including year-end financial operating statements and year to date operating statements for the Properties for the three (3) most recent calendar years prior to the date hereof and, to the extent available, the current year;

 

  (iii) to the extent available, a copy of the budget for each Property for the current year;

 

  (iv) a schedule identifying, to Seller’s Knowledge, any litigation, investigation or proceeding that is pending or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened in writing against a Property, against the Seller related to a Property or being prosecuted by Seller with respect to a Property, together with copies, to the extent in Seller’s possession or control, of all the material documents of a non-confidential nature that pertain to such litigation, investigation or proceeding;

 

  (v) copies of any agreements which may, upon Seller’s election, comprise Service Contracts;

 

  (vi) copies of all environmental reports with respect to the Properties that are in Seller’s possession;

 

  (vii) copies of all leasing and brokerage agreements pursuant to which commissions remain owing or are anticipated to become owing after the Closing Date; and

 

  (viii) copies of any existing Building measurements.

 

  (b) Purchaser, and Purchaser’s agents and representatives, shall have the right, from time to time, between the date which is ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement and the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, during normal business hours, to enter upon each Property for the purpose (i) performing a Phase

 

42


I environmental site assessment in accordance with ASTM Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments (E- 1527-00) (a “Phase I Study”), (ii) performing an engineering and structural inspection and (iii) performing a survey (collectively, the “Due Diligence Inspections”), provided, however, that Purchaser shall (A) provide Seller, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the performance of any Due Diligence Inspections, with the Required Inspection Information, (B) permit a representative of Seller to accompany Purchaser during all on-site inspections of the Properties; (C) not permit any liens to attach to the Properties by reason of Purchaser’s Due Diligence Inspections; and (D) not perform any invasive testing without Seller’s prior written consent. All Due Diligence Inspections shall be conducted by Approved Contractors (hereinafter defined), shall be subject to the rights of tenants under the Leases and must be scheduled in advance to occur at times determined reasonably by Seller, provided that if Seller is unable to permit inspection of a Property within five (5) Business Days following the date requested by Purchaser (and provided that Purchaser has complied with all requirements with respect to an inspection), the Due Diligence Period shall be extended one day for each day in excess of such five (5) Business Day period until Seller is able to permit the inspection. Purchaser shall conduct the Due Diligence Inspections in a manner that shall not interfere with Seller’s business operations on the Property and Purchaser shall not be permitted entry into any vaults, safes, or other areas of the Buildings containing confidential or secure property, information or activities of Seller. In the event the Due Diligence Period is to be extended, as aforesaid, to permit an inspection, then all such extensions shall be deemed to run concurrently. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

  (i) Required Inspection Information” shall mean, with respect to any Due Diligence Inspections, the nature of the inspection to be performed, the proposed date and approximate time of the inspection, the identity of the contractor retained to perform the inspection and the identity of the individuals who will perform the inspection on behalf of the contractor; and

 

  (ii) Approved Contractors” shall mean, (i) with respect to environmental studies, the environmental consultants or contractors identified on Exhibit X annexed hereto, (ii) with respect to engineering studies, the architects or engineers identified on Exhibit X annexed hereto and (iii) with respect to surveys, the engineers or contractors identified on Exhibit X annexed hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may engage reputable, independent consultants, architects, engineers or contractors other than Approved Contractors for the performance of Due Diligence Inspections upon receipt of Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

  (c) Prior to commencing its on-site Due Diligence Inspections, Purchaser shall provide certificates of insurance to Seller evidencing liability insurance in the

 

43


minimum amount of $2,000,000.00 combined per occurrence limit carried by Purchaser and/or Purchaser’s agents in order to insure any loss arising out of or in connection with entry upon the Property. The aforesaid insurance shall be issued by an insurance company licensed in the state where the Property is located and said insurance company shall be reasonably acceptable to Seller. Upon completion of the Due Diligence Inspections, Purchaser shall restore the Property to the condition in which it existed prior to the Due Diligence Inspections. Purchaser shall and hereby does indemnify, defend, and save harmless Seller from and against any and all claims arising out of the entry on and inspection of each and every Property by Purchaser and/or Purchaser’s employees and agents, including, without limitation, Seller’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the terms of this subsection shall survive (i) Closing on such Property and the delivery of the Deed, and (ii) the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

  (d) If Purchaser’s Phase I Study for a Property concludes that there are no “recognized environmental conditions”, as defined in the ASTM Phase I Standards, Purchaser shall acquire title to the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Purchaser’s Phase I Study for a Property concludes that there are “recognized environmental conditions”, as defined in the ASTM Phase I Standards, Purchaser shall, prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, give Seller written notice thereof, together with a copy of Purchaser’s Phase I Study, which shall include a reasonably detailed scope of work (a “Scope of Work”) for a Phase II environmental site assessment of the Property (a “Phase II Study”). In such event, Seller, upon notice to Purchaser on or before Seller’s Election Date, shall elect, in its sole discretion, to (A) require Purchaser to obtain a Phase II Study, in which event Purchaser shall promptly cause an Approved Contractor to perform such Phase II Study strictly in accordance with the Scope of Work or (B) execute and deliver to Purchaser at the Closing an indemnification in the form of Exhibit Y annexed hereto (an “Environmental Indemnity”), in which event Purchaser shall acquire title to the Property without abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise against Seller by reason of the environmental condition of the Property, except for any claim that may be made under the Environmental Indemnity or (C) terminate this Agreement as to the affected Property, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. If Seller requires that Purchaser obtain a Phase II Study, the Closing shall be adjourned until the date which is fifteen (15) Business Days after Seller’s Phase II Election Date. If this Agreement is terminated as to a Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for one-half of Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

44


Unless Seller notifies Purchaser on or before Seller’s Election Date of Seller’s election to terminate this Agreement or provide an Environmental Indemnity as to the affected Property, Seller shall be deemed to have elected to require Purchaser to obtain a Phase II Study as expressed in clause (A) above.

 

  (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 19(d), if a Phase I Study concludes that there are “recognized environmental conditions”, as defined in the ASTM Phase I Standards, and the Scope of Work is limited to Permissible Inspection Items, Seller may not terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(d), but shall be deemed to have elected to require Purchaser to obtain a Phase II Study for such Property, unless Seller, upon notice to Purchaser within (5) Business Days of its receipt of the Phase I Study, accompanied by the Scope of Work, elects to execute and deliver to Purchaser an Environmental Indemnity at Closing. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) to require Purchaser to obtain a Phase II Study for a Property in accordance with the provisions of this Section 19(e), (i) Purchaser shall promptly cause an Approved Contractor to perform the same strictly in accordance with the Scope of Work and (ii) the term “Purchaser’s Phase II Objection Date” shall be deemed to mean, solely with respect to such Property, the date which is 45 days after Seller makes (or is deemed to have made) such election. If Seller elects to execute and deliver to Purchaser an Environmental Indemnity at Closing, Purchaser shall acquire title to the Property without abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise by reason of the environmental condition of the Property, except for any claim that may be made under the Environmental Indemnity.

 

  (f) If Seller requires that Purchaser obtain a Phase II Study of a Property, and such Phase II Study identifies one or more environmental conditions requiring further investigation or remediation (collectively, “Remediation Conditions”), Purchaser may, upon notice to Seller on or before Purchaser’s Phase II Objection Date, object to the environmental condition of the Property. Any such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of the Phase II Study. If Purchaser does not object to the environmental condition of the Property on or before Purchaser’s Phase II Objection Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived objection to the environmental condition of the Property and shall acquire title to the Property without abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise against Seller by reason thereof. If Purchaser objects to the environmental condition of the Property on or before Purchaser’s Phase II Objection Date, Seller, upon notice to Purchaser on or before Seller’s Phase II Election Date, shall elect, in its sole discretion, to either (A) endeavor to remediate and abate the Remediation Condition(s) at Seller’s sole cost and expense to the least stringent requirements under applicable federal and state law to allow the Property to be used for non-residential purposes, in which case Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate, to endeavor to remediate and abate the Remediation Conditions or (B) execute and deliver to Purchaser at the Closing an Environmental Indemnity, in which event Purchaser shall acquire title to the Property without abatement of the

 

45


Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise against Seller by reason of the environmental condition of the Property, except for any claim that may be made under the Environmental Indemnity or (C) terminate this Agreement as to the affected Property, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. The foregoing election by Seller is herein referred to as “Seller’s Phase II Election”. If Seller terminates this Agreement as to a Removed Property as provided above, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for one-half of the Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination. Notwithstanding any contrary term contained in this Section 19(f), if Purchaser (x) obtains a Phase II Study with respect to a Property, (y) such Phase II Study discloses the existence of Remediation Conditions and (z) Purchaser acquires title to such Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser at Closing for the reasonable cost of Purchaser’s Phase II Study, provided that Purchaser provides Seller with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such cost.

 

  (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 19, if Purchaser timely objects to the environmental condition of a Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(f), Seller may, in lieu of making Seller’s Phase II Election on or before Seller’s Phase II Election Date, upon notice to Purchaser on or before Seller’s Phase II Election Date, engage a reputable, independent environmental contractor or consultant to perform its own Phase II Study of the Property. If Seller makes such engagement with respect to a Property, (i) the date by which Seller must make Seller’s Phase II Election shall be extended to Seller’s Extended Phase II Election Date and (ii) the Closing shall be adjourned to the date which is fifteen (15) Business Days after Seller’s Extended Phase II Election Date.

 

  (h) If Seller endeavors to remediate and abate Remediation Condition in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(f), but is unable to substantially complete the same on or before the Closing Date (as the same may be adjourned by Seller in accordance with the provisions of said Section 19(f)), this Agreement shall be deemed terminated as of the Closing Date as to the affected Property only (and shall remain in force and effect with respect to the remaining Properties). In such event, the affected Property shall constitute a “Removed Property” and the provisions set forth in this Section 19 with respect to the removal of Properties shall apply.

 

  (i) If Seller terminates this Agreement as to any Removed Property in accordance with the foregoing terms of this Section 19, Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property, by

 

46


providing Purchaser with notice of substitution setting forth the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable).

 

  (j) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 19, in no event shall Purchaser have the right to exercise any right under this Section 19 with respect to any Required Property, and Purchaser shall close title to each Required Property notwithstanding the environmental condition thereof.

 

20. Purchaser’s Termination Right. Purchaser shall have the right from time to time, upon notice to Seller at any time on or before Closing, to terminate this Agreement with respect to up to three (3) Properties in the aggregate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may Purchaser exercise the foregoing termination right with respect to an Ineligible Property. Upon Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement with respect to a Property in accordance with the provisions of this Section 20, Seller shall retain the Allocated Deposit for such Property and Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for Seller’s actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred subsequent to the date of this Agreement (exclusive of attorney’s fees) for appraisals and other due diligence reports and evaluations with respect to the Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to such Property (but shall remain in force and effect with respect to the remaining Properties) and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other with respect to such Property, with the exception of those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Ineligible Property” shall mean (i) any Property which, if excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby, would permit Seller or Purchaser to terminate this Agreement as a result in the failure or non-satisfaction of any of the conditions to Seller’s or Purchaser’s obligation to close title hereunder set forth in Section 2(c) hereof (whether such condition is in favor of Seller or Purchaser alone or is in favor of both Seller and Purchaser) or (ii) any Property with respect to which Seller has undertaken to cure, remedy or abate Objections or Remediation Conditions in response to a notice from Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Sections 7 or 19 of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement as to any of the Required Properties.

 

21. Tax Appeals.

 

  (a) If any tax reduction proceedings in respect of a Property relating to any fiscal years prior to the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs are pending at the time of Closing, Seller reserves and shall have the right to continue to prosecute and/or settle the same.

 

47


  (b) If any tax reduction proceedings in respect of a Property relating to the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs, are pending at the time of Closing, then the following provisions shall apply:

 

  (i) If such Closing shall occur in the first six (6) months of the tax fiscal year of the Property, Seller reserves and shall have the right to continue to prosecute and/or settle the same;

 

  (ii) If the Closing shall occur on or after the first six (6) months of the tax fiscal year of the Property, Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the closing all of Seller’s right and interest therein;

 

  (iii) Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall prosecute and/or settle any proceeding it controls under this Section 21(b), provided, however, that neither party shall settle any such proceeding without the other party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld of delayed.

 

  (c) Any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes resulting from such tax reduction proceedings applicable to the period prior to the date of the applicable Closing shall belong to and be the property of Seller, and any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes applicable to the period from and after the date of the closing shall belong to and be the property of Purchaser; provided, however, that if any such refund creates an obligation to reimburse any tenants under Leases for any rents or additional rents paid or to be paid, that portion of such refund equal to the amount of such required reimbursement (after deduction of allocable expenses as may be provided in the Lease to such tenant) shall, at Seller’s election, either (a) be paid to Purchaser and Purchaser shall disburse the same to such tenants or (b) be paid by Seller directly to the tenants entitled thereto. All attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in obtaining such refunds or savings shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser in proportion to the gross amount of such refunds or savings payable to Seller and Purchaser, respectively (without regard to any amounts reimbursable to tenants).

 

  (d) The provisions of this Section 21 shall survive the Closing.

 

22. Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given if personally delivered, sent via facsimile or sent by private overnight express carrier, such as Federal Express, next business day delivery, charges prepaid, addressed to Seller at Wachovia Bank, National Association, 225 Water Street, 8th Floor, Jacksonville, Florida 32202, Attention: Neil C.

Notice shall be deemed to have been given upon the date of delivery, if personally delivered, or sent via facsimile or one business day after the date of deposit if sent by private overnight express carrier, next business day delivery.

 

23. No Survival. Except as otherwise provided, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall survive Closing and delivery of any of the Deeds or Overlease Assignments and Assumptions, as applicable.

 

24. Further Assurances. From time to time and at the request of either Seller or Purchaser (whether before, at or after the Closing), the other party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such other and further documents as the requesting party may reasonably request to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 24 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

25. Lease Agreements, Leases, Overleases and the Master Agreement.

 

  (a) At Closing, Seller shall, as tenant of the Leased Premises and Release Premises under the Lease Agreements, execute and deliver to Purchaser and Purchaser’s lender, a Seller Tenant Estoppel covering each Lease Agreement.

 

  (b) At such times during the Due Diligence Period as Seller deems appropriate, Seller shall deliver a written request (i) to each tenant listed on the Rent Roll, to execute and deliver a Tenant Estoppel, (ii) to each lessor under an Overlease, to execute and deliver an Overlease Estoppel, (iii) to each lessor under an Overlease affecting an Overlease Recognition Agreement Property, to execute and deliver an Overlease Recognition Agreement, (iv) to each party in interest to a reciprocal easement agreement affecting a Property (an “REA”), to execute and deliver an REA Estoppel and (v) to each overlessor under a Restricted Overlease, to execute and deliver a Consent. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver the aforesaid instruments, but in no event shall Seller be required to make any payments or commence any litigation in seeking such instruments.

 

  (c) With respect to each Overlease Recognition Agreement Property, it shall be a condition to Seller’s obligation to close title hereunder that the lessor under the Overlease affecting such Overlease Recognition Agreement Property executes and delivers to Seller on or before Closing an Overlease Recognition Agreement.

 

  (d) With respect to each Property that consists of a Leasehold Estate, it shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close title hereunder that Seller delivers to Purchaser at Closing either (x) an Overlease Estoppel or (y) a Seller Overlease Estoppel.

 

49


  (e) With respect to each Property that is subject to an REA, it shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close title hereunder that Seller delivers to Purchaser at Closing either (x) REA Estoppels from all parties in interest to the REA or (y) Seller REA Estoppels, to the extent required to satisfy the immediately preceding condition.

 

  (f) If any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 25(c), (d) or (e) remains unsatisfied as of the Closing Date as to any of the Properties, Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed 75 Business Days in the aggregate, to afford Seller additional time to satisfy the conditions. If Seller does not so adjourn the Closing, or any of the conditions remains unsatisfied as of the expiration of any such adjournment(s), this Agreement shall be deemed terminated as to the affected Properties only, whereupon each such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect with respect to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect thereto, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

  (g) Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 25(f), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for each Removed Property, by providing Purchaser with the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable.)

 

  (h) It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close title hereunder to all of the Properties that Seller delivers to Purchaser at Closing either (x) Tenant Estoppels from tenants under Leases demising not less than sixty-five percent (65%) of the square footage demised under all of the Leases as of the Closing Date and/or (y) Seller Third Party Tenant Estoppels, to the extent required to satisfy the immediately preceding condition. The parties acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, there are no precise measurements of the square footage demised

 

50


under the Leases. Consequently, Seller’s reasonable estimate of such square footage shall control, for purposes of determining Seller’s satisfaction of the condition to Closing set forth in this Section 25(h).

 

  (i) If the condition to Closing set forth in Section 25(h) remains unsatisfied as of the Closing Date, Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed seventy five (75) Business Days in the aggregate, to afford Seller additional time to satisfy the condition. If Seller does not so adjourn the Closing, or such condition to Closing remains unsatisfied as of the expiration of any such adjournment(s), Seller shall elect to (i) terminate this Agreement as to all of the Properties or (ii) terminate this Agreement as to one or more of the Properties only, to the extent required to satisfy the condition to Closing set forth in Section 25(h). If Seller terminates this Agreement as to all of the Properties, Seller shall refund the Downpayment to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs with respect to the Properties (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs). Thereafter, neither party hereto shall have any further obligation to the other, with the exception of those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. If Seller terminates this Agreement as to one or more Properties, each Property so terminated shall constitute a “Removed Property”, and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect with respect to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect thereto, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination. Seller may not, however, substitute a Substitute Property for any Property removed from this Agreement pursuant to this Section 25(i).

 

  (j) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 25, Seller or Purchaser may waive any condition to Closing in its favor enumerated in this Section 25 with respect to the Properties (or any of them), in which event the parties shall close title the Properties (or any of them) in accordance with this Agreement. In such event, Purchaser shall continue to use commercially reasonably efforts to obtain any missing Tenant Estoppels, Overlease Estoppels, REA Estoppels, Overlease Recognition Agreements and Consents for a period of ninety (90) days following the Closing Date. The phrase “commercially reasonable efforts” as used in this Section 25 does not require Seller or Purchaser to declare a default or terminate any of the Leases, pay any sum of money or initiate any litigation to compel the delivery of any document. The provisions of this subsection shall survive Closing.

 

  (k) With respect to each Property that is subject to a Restricted Overlease (if any), it shall be a condition to Seller’s obligation to close title hereunder that the lessor under the Restricted Overlease execute and deliver to Purchaser on or before

 

51


Closing an instrument whereby it consents to Seller’s sale and assignment to Purchaser of Seller’s interest, as tenant, in and to the Restricted Overlease (a “Consent”). If Seller is unable to obtain a Consent as of the Closing Date, Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing, not to exceed 75 Business Days in the aggregate, to afford Seller additional time to obtain such Consent. If Seller does not so adjourn the Closing, or Seller has not obtained a Consent as of the expiration of any such adjournment(s), Seller shall elect, in its sole discretion, to either (A) execute and deliver to Purchaser at Closing an agreement (an “Overlease Indemnity”) in a form mutually agreeable to Seller and Purchaser (in the exercise of their reasonable judgments) whereby Seller indemnifies Purchaser from and against any damages (other than consequential damages) Purchaser may sustain by reason of Seller’s inability to deliver a Consent, in which event Purchaser shall acquire title to the Property without abatement of the Purchase Price or any claim for damages or otherwise against Seller by reason of Seller’s inability to obtain a Consent, other than any claim which may be made under the Overlease Indemnity or (B) terminate this Agreement as to the affected Property only, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. If Seller terminates this Agreement as to a Removed Property as provided above, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

  (l) If Seller terminates this Agreement as to any Removed Property in accordance with the terms of Section 25(k), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property by providing Purchaser with notice of substitution setting forth the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable.)

 

  (m) If Seller obtains an Overlease Estoppel from a lessor of a Property that is subject to an Overlease, Seller shall reasonably promptly deliver the same to Purchaser.

 

52


Purchaser may thereafter request that the lessor execute and deliver to Purchaser a Supplementary Overlease Estoppel, by executing and delivering to such lessor a Supplementary Overlease Estoppel Request, accompanied by a Supplementary Overlease Estoppel. Simultaneously with Purchaser’s delivery thereof to a lessor under an Overlease, Purchaser shall provide Seller with copies of any Supplementary Overlease Estoppel Requests and Supplementary Overlease Estoppels. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 25(m), (i) Purchaser’s obligation to close title to a Property that is subject to an Overlease shall in no event be conditioned upon Purchaser’s receipt from the lessor of an executed Supplementary Overlease Estoppel and (ii) upon Seller’s receipt of an Overlease Estoppel with respect to a Property, the condition to Closing set forth in Section 25(d) shall be deemed to be finally satisfied, notwithstanding any actual or purported revocation of, or amendment to, an Overlease Estoppel made by a lessor in response to Purchaser’s request for a Supplementary Overlease Estoppel.

 

  (n) Purchaser shall cause the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust to execute and deliver at Closing, for each Property that is subject to a Lease Agreement, a Mortgage SNDA in the form of Exhibit-D-1 to the Lease Agreement, or in such other form as Seller shall accept in its sole discretion.

 

  (o) Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare a Site Plan for each Property which contains Leased Premises or Release Premises. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Site Plan” shall mean a site plan of an entire Property, delineating (i) tenant common areas located outside of Buildings, (ii) parking areas reserved for the exclusive use of the tenant under the Lease Agreement and its employees, contractors, licensees and invitees (“Tenant Dedicated Parking Areas”) and (iii) parking areas reserved for use by parties paying a fee therefor (“Separate Charge Parking Areas”). Provided that the Tenant Dedicated Parking Areas delineated on the Site Plan are substantially comparable to those parking areas reserved for the exclusive use of Seller and its employees, contractors, licensees and invitees as of the date hereof, the delineation thereof on the Site Plan shall be final and binding. Provided that the Separate Charge Parking Areas delineated on the Site Plan are substantially comparable to the parking areas reserved for use by parties paying a fee therefor as of the date hereof, the delineation of the Separate Charge Parking Area on the Site Plan shall be final and binding.

 

  (p) Article XV of each Lease Agreement shall contain provisions particular to that Lease Agreement. Exhibit F annexed hereto contains an omnibus version of Article XV, annotated by footnotes indicating which provisions thereof are appropriate for inclusion in which Lease Agreements. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller shall complete Article XV of each Lease Agreement in accordance with such footnotes.

 

53


  (q) On the Closing Date, Seller shall, with respect to each Lease Agreement:

 

  (i) insert the Initial ABR Factor in the Lease Agreement;

 

  (ii) if applicable, annex to the Lease Agreement, as Exhibit B, the floor plan of the Leased Premises, as prepared by an Approved Architect pursuant to the provisions of Section 27(a);

 

  (iii) if applicable, annex to the Lease Agreement, as Exhibit B-1, the floor plan of the Release Premises, as prepared by an Approved Architect in accordance with the provisions of Section 27(a);

 

  (iv) annex the Site Plan for the Property to the Lease Agreement as Exhibit A-1;

 

  (v) incorporate Article XV in each Lease, having completed the same in the manner contemplated by Section 25(p);

 

  (vi) incorporate, as Article IX of the Lease Agreements affecting the Properties identified on Exhibit C-1 annexed hereto, the provisions contained in Exhibit C-2 annexed hereto;

 

  (vii) incorporate, as Article IX of the Lease Agreements affecting the Properties identified on Exhibit D-1 annexed hereto, the provisions contained in Exhibit D-2 annexed hereto;

 

  (viii) incorporate, as Article IX of the Lease Agreements affecting the Properties identified on Exhibit E-1 annexed hereto, the provisions contained in Exhibit E-2 annexed hereto;

 

  (ix) with respect to each Lease Agreement demising premises in a Linked Property, modify the definition of “Leasehold Estate” contained therein so that it means the estate and interest of the landlord in the Linked Property and the Property or Properties with which it is paired or grouped, including fee title to each such Property and/or the lessee’s interest in an Overlease affecting such Property; and

 

  (x) otherwise complete the Lease Agreement in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Lease Agreement annexed hereto as Exhibit P.

 

  (r) At Closing, the parties shall complete (i) Exhibit A to the FSG Indemnity and Guaranty by completing the descriptions of the Overleases affecting the Properties identified on such Exhibit A and (ii) Exhibit B to the FSG Indemnity and Guaranty by describing therein the Lease Agreements affecting Properties acquired by Assignee.

 

  (s) At Closing, the parties shall complete the Master Agreement in accordance with the instructions set forth in the form of Master Agreement annexed hereto as Exhibit H.

 

54


  (t) At Closing, the parties shall complete the Environmental Indemnity in accordance with the instructions set forth in the form of Environmental Indemnity annexed hereto as Exhibit Y.

 

26. Capital Amount.

 

  (a) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make any of the repairs, replacements or improvements (i) noted on Exhibit Z hereto (as the same may be supplemented from time to time upon the substitution of a Property in accordance with this Agreement), (ii) that Seller is required to perform to cure Violations issued from and after the date hereof by governmental authorities having jurisdiction over a Property or (iii) that Seller, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, determines is necessary to avoid, prior to Closing, (x) imperiling the health, safety or welfare of any person on or about the Property or (y) additional damage to the Property. The foregoing repairs, replacements or improvements are herein collectively referred to as “Capital Work”. The hard and soft costs expended by Seller in connection with Capital Work are herein referred to as the “Capital Amount”. The Capital Amount incurred in connection with any Capital Work shall be added to the Purchase Price for each Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 4. Seller may enter into such contracts and agreements for the performance of Capital Work as Seller deems appropriate, provided that such contracts and agreements shall be consistent with Seller’s customary practices.

 

  (b) If any Capital Work for a Property containing Leased Premises remains incomplete at Closing, Seller shall on or before Closing furnish Purchaser with Seller’s reasonable estimate of the cost required to complete the same (an “Estimated Capital Work Completion Amount”), which such estimate shall include a reasonably detailed breakdown of the components of such Estimated Capital Work Completion Amount. Seller shall at Closing (pursuant to an instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser) assign to Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to all contracts and agreements for the performance of the incomplete Capital Work (collectively, the “Capital Work Contracts”), and Purchaser shall assume all of Seller’s obligations (including payment obligations) under the Capital Work Contracts which first arise or accrue from and after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall thereafter complete the Capital Work pursuant to the Capital Work Contracts (or such other arms-length agreements with third parties as shall be necessary to complete the Capital Work), in accordance with good construction practice and any plans or specifications therefor furnished by Seller to Purchaser. On the sooner to occur of (i) one year after the Closing Date and (ii) ten Business Days (10) days after Purchaser’s completion of Capital Work with respect to a Property, Purchaser shall furnish Seller with a detailed accounting of costs incurred by Purchaser in completing the Capital Work in accordance with the provisions of this Section 26 (the “Actual Capital Work Completion Amount”). If the Actual Capital Work Completion Amount for any Capital Work is less than the Estimated Capital

 

55


Work Completion Amount for such Capital Work (the difference being herein referred to as the “Refund Amount”), Purchaser shall, simultaneously with its delivery of the accounting to Seller, pay the Refund Amount to Seller. If the Estimated Capital Work Completion Amount for any Capital Work is less than the Actual Capital Work Completion Amount for such Capital Work, Seller shall pay the difference to Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days of Seller’s receipt of such accounting.

 

27. Architect’s Reports.

 

  (a) Promptly following the date hereof (with respect to the Initial Properties), and promptly following the substitution of a Substitute Property (with respect to the Substitute Properties), Seller shall retain the Approved Architects to prepare, with respect to each Property, a report (the “Architect’s Report”) setting forth (i) the measurements of the Net Rentable Areas of the Buildings and, if applicable, the Leased Premises and the Release Premises, all such measurements to be made in accordance with the BOMA Standard, (ii) floor plans, to the extent applicable, of the Leased Premises and the Release Premises, (iii) if the Property contains Release Premises, a space plan indicating any reconfiguration of floors or common areas necessary properly to perform the Demising Work for such Release Premises, (iv) if the Property contains Release Premises, a reasonably detailed scope of work of the Demising Work for such Release Premises and (v) if the Property contains Release Premises, an estimate of the Demising Work Costs (and each component thereof, i.e., the Primary Demising Work Costs and the Other Demising Work Costs) (such estimate, the “Estimated Demising Work Costs”). If the Service Entrance for a Building is located within Leased Premises, Seller shall also instruct the Approved Architect to estimate the cost required to relocate the Service Entrance to premises outside the Leased Premises in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2(f) of the Lease Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Approved Architect” shall mean the architects or engineers set forth on Exhibit AA hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may engage reputable, independent architects or engineers other than Approved Architects for the preparation of Architect’s Reports upon receipt of Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

  (b) The information and materials described in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 27(a) are hereinafter referred to as the “Release Premises Information”. If a Building contains Release Premises, Seller shall instruct the Approved Architect to base the Release Premises Information upon the assumption that the entire Release Premises shall be separated from the Leased Premises. However, Seller, at Seller’s election, may also instruct the Approved Architect to base the Release Premises Information upon multiple assumptions as to the ultimate configuration of the Leased Premises and the Release Premises.

 

56


  (c) Upon its completion of an Architect’s Report for a Property, the Approved Architect shall, in accordance with Seller’s instructions, deliver a copy thereof to Seller and Purchaser. During the Consultation Period, the Approved Architect, in accordance with Seller’s instructions, shall make itself available to Seller and Purchaser for consultation with respect to the Architect’s Report. During such consultations, Seller and/or Purchaser may request that the Approved Architect make changes to the Architect’s Report. If the Approved Architect, in its sole discretion, determines that such changes are appropriate, then the Approved Architect shall incorporate such changes in the Architect’s Report. However, the Approved Architect shall be under no obligation to incorporate in the Architect’s Report any changes suggested by Seller or Purchaser, it being understood that the Approved Architect’s determination of the appropriateness of any such changes shall be final and binding. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Consultation Period” shall mean the fifteen (15) Business Day period immediately following the Approved Architect’s Delivery of an Architect’s Report to Seller and Purchaser.

 

  (d) If, as of the Closing Date, an Approved Architect has not yet completed an Architect’s Report (after consulting with Seller and Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Section 27(c)) Seller shall be entitled to an adjournment or adjournments of the Closing to afford the Approved Architect additional time to complete the Architect’s Report.

 

  (e) If Seller concludes, in its sole discretion, that the Estimated Demising Work Cost set forth in the Architect’s Report with respect to a Property is unduly expensive, Seller may, upon notice to Purchaser on or before the later to occur of (i) Seller’s Election Date and (ii) fifteen (15) Business Days after the Approved Architect finalizes the Architect’s Report (after consulting with Seller and Purchaser in accordance with Section 27(c)), terminate this Agreement as to such Property, whereupon such Property shall constitute a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to the Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

  (f) If Seller exercises its right pursuant to Section 27(e) to terminate this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller shall be deemed to have waived any condition to Seller’s obligation to proceed to Closing hereunder set forth in Section 2(c) hereof, to the extent that such condition would have been satisfied but for Seller’s termination of this Agreement as to the Removed Property.

 

57


  (g) If Seller exercises its right pursuant to Section 27(e) to terminate this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property by providing Purchaser with notice of substitution setting forth the Required Substitute Property Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, unless permitted by Section 34, may not substitute a Property or Properties for any Removed Property which was earlier substituted for a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable.)

If Purchaser furnishes Seller with such notice in the time and in the manner hereinbefore prescribed, Purchaser shall assign its right to acquire the Substitute Property to Assignee no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to any date scheduled for Closing herein, and shall simultaneously furnish Seller with notice thereof, accompanied by a Contract Assignment and Assumption, duly executed by Purchaser and Assignee. At Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser those of Seller’s Closing Documents that pertain to Properties to be acquired by Purchaser, while Seller shall execute and deliver to Assignee those of Seller’s Closing Documents that pertain to Properties to be acquired by Assignee. Conversely,

 

63


Purchaser shall execute and deliver to Seller those of Purchaser’s Closing Documents that pertain to Properties to be acquired by Purchaser, while Assignee shall execute and deliver to Seller those of Purchaser’s Closing Documents that pertain to Properties to be acquired by Assignee. In addition, the adjustments and pro rations required by Section 12 hereof shall be made between Seller and Purchaser, with respect to those Properties acquired by Purchaser, and Seller and Assignee, with respect to those Properties acquired by Assignee.

 

  (e) This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

 

  (f) For the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding involving this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser each hereby expressly submit to the jurisdiction of all federal and state courts sitting in the State of New York and consent that any order, process, notice of motion or other application to or by any such court or a judge thereof may be served within or without such court’s jurisdiction by registered mail or by personal service, provided that a reasonable time for appearance is allowed, and Seller and Purchaser agree that such courts shall have the exclusive jurisdiction over any such suit, action or proceeding commenced by either or both of said parties. In furtherance of such agreement, Seller and Purchaser each agree upon the request of the other party hereof to discontinue (or agree to the discontinuance of) any such suit, action or proceeding pending in any other jurisdiction.

 

  (g) Seller and Purchaser each hereby irrevocably waive any objection that each such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought in any federal or state court sitting in the State of New York and hereby further irrevocably waive any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

  (h) Except when reference is made to Business Days, whenever in this Agreement a period of time is stated as a number of days, it shall be construed to mean calendar days; provided, however, that when any period of time so stated would end upon a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, such period shall be deemed to end upon the next day following which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

 

  (i) The date and time for the performance of all obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be of the essence of this Agreement. The foregoing shall in no event be deemed to impair any adjournment right of either party hereunder expressly set forth herein.

 

  (j) If any term or provision of this Agreement shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected and each such remaining provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

64


  (k) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The date of this Agreement shall be the date of Seller’s execution hereof. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile.

 

  (l) This Agreement and each of the provisions hereof are solely for the benefit of Purchaser and Seller and their permitted assigns. No provisions of this Agreement, or of any of the documents and instruments executed in connection herewith, shall be construed as creating an any person or entity other than Purchaser and Seller and their permitted assigns any rights of any nature whatsoever.

 

  (m) It is the intention of both parties hereto that, for federal, state and local income, single business or franchise tax purposes, Purchaser will be purchasing on the Closing Date, and Seller will be selling on the Closing Date, the Properties, rather than Purchaser providing a loan to Seller secured by the Properties on the Closing Date.

 

30. Purchaser’s Representations. Purchaser (and, if applicable, Purchaser’s Affiliate) represents to Seller, which representations shall be true, correct and complete as of the Closing Date and which shall survive Closing, as follows:

 

  (a) Purchaser is, and at the Closing shall be, a corporation (or limited liability company, or limited partnership, as applicable) duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of formation, with full power and authority to conduct its business affairs each state where the Properties are located.

 

  (b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, in accordance with its terms, do not violate Purchaser’s articles of incorporation, by-laws, or any contract, agreement, commitment, order, judgment or decree to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound.

 

  (c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance by Purchaser of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all required action of Purchaser and the officers of Purchaser in full compliance with the provisions of Purchaser’s articles of incorporation and by-laws. The person executing this Agreement on behalf of Purchaser is duly authorized to do so.

 

  (d) Purchaser has the right, power and authority to make and perform its obligations under this Agreement and this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

 

65

  (a) Seller is, and at the Closing shall be, a national banking association, duly organized and validly existing, with full power and authority to conduct its business affairs in each state where the Properties are located.

 

  (b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller, in accordance with its terms, do not violate Seller’s articles of incorporation, by-laws, or any contract, agreement, commitment, order, judgment or decree to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound.

 

  (c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance by Seller of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all required action of Seller and the officers of Seller in full compliance with the provisions of Seller’s articles of incorporation and by-laws. The person executing this Agreement on behalf of Seller is duly authorized to do so.

 

  (d) Seller has the right, power and authority to make and perform its obligations under this Agreement and this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms.

 

32. Indemnification. With respect to and following the Closing on the Properties:

 

  (a) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against all claims, lawsuits, costs (including reasonable counsel fees), losses, damages and liabilities that arise out of or relate to (i) the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on or at a Property (or any improvements) at the time of Closing, but only to the extent that the presence of such Hazardous Materials were disclosed in a Phase I Study or Phase II Study obtained by Purchaser, (ii) transactions or operations at a Property on and after the Closing Date, or (iii) any breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty or covenant of Purchaser contained in this Agreement that survives the Closing. If any claim or lawsuit is made or commenced as to which Seller proposes to demand such indemnification, it shall notify Purchaser with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure of Seller to notify Purchaser shall not relieve Purchaser from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent Purchaser is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Purchaser shall have the option of defending such claim or lawsuit with counsel of its own choosing at its own cost and expense and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with Seller and any counsel designated by Seller. Purchaser shall be liable for any settlement of any claim or lawsuit against Seller made with Purchaser’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

  (b) Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against all claims, lawsuits, costs (including reasonable counsel fees), losses, damages and liabilities that arise out of or relate to (i) third party claims for negligent acts occurring on a Property before the date of the closing of title to such Property, but specifically excluding any matter relating to the physical condition of a Property or the

 

66


presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on or at a Property (or any improvements) at the time of Closing and (ii) any breach by Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement that survives the Closing. If any claim or lawsuit is made or commenced as to which Purchaser proposes to demand such indemnification, it shall notify Seller with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure of Purchaser to notify Seller shall not relieve Seller from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that Seller is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Seller shall have the option of defending such claim or lawsuit with counsel of its own choosing at its own cost and expense and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with Purchaser and any counsel designated by Purchaser. Seller shall be liable for any settlement of any claim or lawsuit against Purchaser made with Seller’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

  (c) The provisions of this Section 32 shall survive the Closing.

 

33. Marketing/Confidentiality.

 

  (a) Prior to Closing, Purchaser shall not market or otherwise offer for sale or lease any of the Properties or any of the premises located thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the expiration of the applicable Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may market or offer for sale the Properties identified on Exhibit BB annexed hereto by listing the same with real estate brokers or otherwise, provided that Purchaser’s marketing materials for such Properties state (and Purchaser otherwise advises prospective purchasers) that such properties are subject to a sale-purchase agreement between Seller and Purchaser and that the sale thereof is accordingly conditioned on the occurrence of Closing hereunder. The right to market certain Properties accorded to Purchaser by this Section 33(a) shall in no event accord additional inspection rights upon Purchaser or any prospective purchaser.

 

  (b) Each party acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement (or a summary of the terms and conditions hereof) may be included by such party in such party’s filings with such governmental authorities that regulate that party, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and, if that is the case, such filing shall be available for review by the public, including access through the SEC’s EDGAR Internet search engine and document retrieval system. In addition, each party may be required to disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a press release and be required to disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to Seller’s shareholders, investment bankers, investment advisors, money managers, lenders and other interested or affected parties. To the extent required by applicable law, each party authorizes the other to release, distribute, and discuss the terms and conditions of this Agreement as set forth in this Section 33(b) without need for the other party’s prior consent or approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party that wishes to issue a press release

 

67


shall provide a copy of the same to the other party not less than two (2) Business Days prior to its issuance for review and comment, and the parties agree to cooperate and act reasonably to incorporate changes as requested prior to releasing any statements or information to the news media. Further, each party shall endeavor to provide the other with copies of all the aforesaid filings upon their be filed. In addition, during the five (5) Business Day period commencing on the date hereof, Purchaser agrees that it shall not publicly disclose that it has entered into this Agreement.

 

34. Seller’s Substitution Right. Notwithstanding any contrary term contained in this Agreement, Seller shall have the right, upon notice to Purchaser from time to time at any time before Closing, to substitute one or more Properties for any Removed Property, if required to satisfy the Operating Lease Condition or the Aggregate Percentage Condition. Any such notice by Seller shall contain the Required Substitute Property Information.

 

35. Linked Properties.

 

(a) Exhibit V annexed hereto contains a schedule wherein certain Properties are paired or grouped with one or more other Properties. Each such Property is hereinafter referred to as a “Linked Property”. If either party hereto terminates this Agreement as to a Linked Property, this Agreement shall automatically terminate as to the Property or Properties with which the Linked Property is paired or grouped. Upon any termination of this Agreement as to a Property which is paired or grouped with a Linked Property in accordance with the provisions of this Section 35(a), such Property, shall become a “Removed Property”. Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property, Seller shall refund the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser. In addition, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Due Diligence Costs (upon being presented with paid invoices and receipts evidencing such costs) with respect to the Removed Property. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be null and void as to the Removed Property (but shall remain in force and effect as to the remaining Properties), and neither party shall have any obligation to the other with respect to the Removed Property, except to the extent such obligation expressly survives such termination.

 

(b) Upon the termination of this Agreement as to a Removed Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 35(a), Seller may, simultaneously therewith, substitute one or more Substitute Properties for the Removed Property, by providing Purchaser with the Required Substitute Property Information. If Seller substitutes a Substitute Property for a Removed Property, then in lieu of refunding the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property to Purchaser, there shall be an adjustment of the Downpayment to reflect the substitution of the Substitute Property for the Removed Property (i.e., Seller shall refund to Purchaser the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Removed Property exceeds that of the Substitute Property, or Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount by which the Allocated Deposit for the Substitute Property exceeds that of the Removed Property, as applicable.)

 

68


36. Property Audits. Promptly following the date hereof, Seller shall engage KPMG LLP, Seller’s independent, outside accounting firm, to prepare, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, in conformity with the requirements of Rule 3-14 of Regulations S-X promulgated by the SEC, a combined statement of revenues and certain expenses relating to the operation of the Properties for (i) the calendar year ending December 31, 2003 and (ii) the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2004 (collectively, the “Property Audits”). Promptly following Purchaser’s reasonable request therefor, Seller shall cause KPMG LLP to update the Property Audits, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, through the end of the calendar quarter preceding the calendar quarter in which the Closing occurs.

 

37. No Offer. This Agreement shall neither be deemed an offer to sell nor shall it bind, obligate or be effective against Seller unless and until (a) the Agreement has been approved in writing by Seller’s appropriate management authority and (b) this Agreement has been fully executed by Seller and Purchaser and an executed copy is delivered to both parties hereto.

 

38. No Liability. No individual officers, directors, shareholders, agents or representatives of Seller or of Purchaser shall have any personal liability under this Agreement, either for the observance or performance of such party’s rights, duties or obligations hereunder, or for the default of such party to observe and perform its obligations hereunder, or under any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or otherwise.

 

39. Radon Notice. 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. LEVELS OF RADON THAT EXCEED FEDERAL AND STATE GUIDELINES HAVE BEEN FOUND IN BUILDINGS IN FLORIDA. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING RADON AND RADON TESTING MAY BE OBTAINED FROM YOUR COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH UNIT.
