3.9.4 Condition of Title at Closing. Upon the Closing, Seller shall sell, transfer and convey to Buyer indefeasible fee simple title, as evidenced by the Title Company

issuing the Owner’s Title Policy (as hereinafter defined), to the Land and the Improvements thereon by a duly executed and acknowledged deed in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (the “Deed”), subject only to the Lease and Purchase Option (as hereafter defined) and the Permitted Exceptions.

In the event the non-demanding party delivers to Escrow Agent written objection to the release of the Deposit to the demanding party (an “Objection Notice”) within the Objection Period (which Objection Notice shall set forth the basis under this Agreement for objecting to the release of the Deposit), Escrow Agent shall promptly send a copy of the Objection Notice to the demanding party. In the event of any dispute between the parties regarding the release of the Deposit, Escrow Agent, in its good faith business judgment, may disregard all inconsistent instructions received from either party and may either (a) hold the Deposit until the dispute is mutually resolved and Escrow Agent is advised of such mutual resolution in writing by both Seller and Buyer, or Escrow Agent is otherwise instructed by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (b) deposit the Deposit with a court of competent jurisdiction by an action of interpleader (whereupon Escrow Agent shall be released and relieved of any further liability or obligations hereunder from and after the date of such deposit). In the event Escrow Agent shall in good faith be uncertain as to its duties or obligations hereunder or shall receive conflicting instructions, claims or demands from the parties hereto (expressly excluding however a conflicting demand given by Seller after Buyer has delivered a Due

Diligence Termination Notice and demand for the Deposit), Escrow Agent shall promptly notify both parties in writing and thereafter Escrow Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) to refrain from taking any action other than to keep safely the Deposit until Escrow Agent shall receive a joint instruction from both parties clarifying Escrow Agent’s uncertainty or resolving such conflicting instructions, claims or demands, or until a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction instructs Escrow Agent to act.

11.5 Real Estate Reporting Person. Escrow Agent is designated the “real estate reporting person” for purposes of section 6045 of title 26 of the United States Code and Treasury Regulation 1.6045-4 and any instructions or settlement statement prepared by Escrow Agent shall so provide.

11.6 Destruction of Documents; Survival. Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to destroy or otherwise dispose of any and all documents, papers, instructions and other material concerning the Escrow at the expiration of 6 years from the later of (a) the Closing, (b) the final disbursement of any funds maintained in Escrow after the Closing, or (c) the final release of the Deposit following the termination of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement until Escrow Agent’s duties and obligations hereunder are fully and finally discharged.

12 RISK OF LOSS.

12.1 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any material portion of the Property is taken by condemnation or eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending or contemplated taking which has not been consummated), Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of such fact. In such event, Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller not later than the earlier of (i) the Closing Date, and (ii) 10 days after delivery of such notice from Seller. Upon such termination, Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Deposit to Buyer, the parties shall equally share the Cancellation Charges, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, other than pursuant to any provision hereof which expressly survives the termination of this Agreement. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, the terms of the Lease shall govern distribution of proceeds and restoration regardless of the commencement of the term thereof.

12.2 Casualty. Prior to the Closing and notwithstanding the pendency of this Agreement, the entire risk of loss or damage or destruction of the Property shall be borne and assumed by Seller. If, prior to Closing any part of the Property is damaged or destroyed, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of such fact. In the event that the amount of the damage caused by such event exceeds $500,000, Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller not later than the earlier of (i) the Closing Date, and (ii) 10 days after delivery of such notice from Seller. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, the terms of the Lease shall govern distribution of proceeds and restoration regardless of the commencement of the term thereof .

13 DEFAULT.

13.1 Default by Buyer. IN THE EVENT THAT THE ESCROW AND THIS TRANSACTION FAIL TO CLOSE AS A RESULT OF THE DEFAULT OF BUYER IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, PROVIDED THAT SELLER IS READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO CLOSE, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX AND THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT REPRESENTS THE PARTIES’ REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE PARTIES THEREFORE AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT THAT ESCROW AND THIS TRANSACTION FAIL TO CLOSE AS A RESULT OF THE DEFAULT OF BUYER IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND SELLER IS READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, SELLER, AS SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, IS ENTITLED TO LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT THEN HELD BY ESCROW AGENT. IN THE EVENT ESCROW FAILS TO CLOSE AS A RESULT OF BUYER’S DEFAULT AND SELLER IS READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, THEN (1) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF BUYER AND SELLER HEREUNDER AND THE ESCROW CREATED HEREBY SHALL TERMINATE, (2) ESCROW AGENT SHALL, AND IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED AND INSTRUCTED TO, RETURN PROMPTLY TO BUYER AND SELLER ALL DOCUMENTS AND INSTRUMENTS TO THE PARTIES WHO DEPOSITED THE SAME, AND (3) ESCROW AGENT SHALL DELIVER THE DEPOSIT THEN HELD BY ESCROW AGENT TO SELLER PURSUANT TO SELLER’S INSTRUCTIONS, AND THE SAME SHALL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.

15 CONFIDENTIALITY.

Disclosure of information by Buyer shall not be prohibited if that disclosure is of information that is or becomes a matter of public record or public knowledge as a result of the Closing of this transaction or from sources other than Buyer or its agents, employees, contractors, consultants or attorneys or if disclosure is required under law or regulation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller acknowledges that Buyer is a public company and that Buyer may disclose the pendency and/or Closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in its public company filings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Closing, and in connection with Buyer’s operation of the Property, Buyer shall have the right to use and disclose the

Property Documents and information therein, except Property Documents and information therein related to Seller’s financial position and environmental conditions at the Property, which shall be subject to the limitations set forth above.

Promptly after receipt by Buyer of notice of the commencement of any action for which a claim for indemnification is to be made against Seller, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of such commencement, but the omission to so notify Seller will not relieve Seller from any liability that it may have to Buyer hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to Seller. If any action is brought against Buyer, and it notifies Seller of the commencement thereof, Seller will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to Buyer promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice of commencement, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to Buyer in its discretion.

In the event Seller, after notice from Buyer as set forth above, has not elected to assume the defense in such action, Buyer may settle such action in its sole and absolute discretion, provided that such settlement shall not waive any claims by Buyer against Seller hereunder. Seller shall do, execute and deliver, or shall cause to be done, executed and delivered, all such further acts and instruments which Buyer may reasonably request in order to

more fully effectuate the indemnifications provided for in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the Closing for a period of 24 months.
