PROPERTY

2.1 Property. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, the following property (individually and/or collectively, as the context may require, the “Property”):

ARTICLE 3

EARNEST MONEY

3.1 Deposit and Investment of Earnest Money. On the Effective Date, Purchaser shall deposit the Earnest Money with Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall invest the Earnest Money in one or more interest-bearing accounts satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser, shall not commingle the Earnest Money with any funds of Escrow Agent or others, and shall promptly provide Purchaser and Seller with confirmation of the investments made. Such account shall have no penalty for early withdrawal, and Purchaser accepts all risks with regard to such account. Purchaser and Seller shall promptly provide Escrow Agent with the appropriate Forms W-9 for tax identification number certifications, or Forms W-8 for non resident alien certifications.

3.2 Independent Consideration. If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement and is entitled to receive a return of the Earnest Money pursuant to the terms hereof, the Escrow Agent shall first disburse to Seller One Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($100.00) as independent consideration for Seller’s performance under this Agreement (“Independent Consideration”), which shall be retained by Seller in all instances.


3.3 Form; Failure to Deposit. The Earnest Money shall be in the form of the wire transfer to Escrow Agent of immediately available U.S. federal funds. If Purchaser fails to timely deposit the Earnest Money within the time periods required, Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser, and thereafter the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for rights and obligations which, by their terms, survive the termination hereof.

3.4 Disposition of Earnest Money. The Earnest Money shall be applied as a credit to the Purchase Price at Closing. However, if Purchaser is entitled to and elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the express terms of Section 5.2, Section 7.2, Section 7.3.8, Section 10.2 or Section 12.20 hereof (the “Permitted Purchaser Termination Provisions”), Escrow Agent shall pay the entire Earnest Money (less the Independent Consideration) to Purchaser on the third Business Day following Escrow Agent’s and Seller’s receipt of notice from Purchaser (as long as the current investment can be liquidated and disbursed in one Business Day) and neither party shall have any further liability, rights or obligations, other than those that by these terms survive the termination of this Agreement. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Purchaser for any reason other than by Purchaser pursuant to the Permitted Purchaser Termination Provisions, Escrow Agent is authorized to deliver the Earnest Money to Seller pursuant to the terms hereof on the third Business Day following receipt by Escrow Agent and Purchaser of written notice of such termination from Seller. With respect to either such termination, if the party to whom the Earnest Money is NOT being returned notifies Escrow Agent that it disputes the right of other party to receive the Earnest Money prior to the third Business Day after receipt of such notice, Escrow Agent shall not disburse the Earnest Money until such dispute is resolved in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In such event, Escrow Agent may interplead the Earnest Money into a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the Earnest Money has been deposited. All attorneys’ fees and costs and Escrow Agent’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not awarded the Earnest Money, or if the Earnest Money is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution. Interest earned on the Earnest Money shall in all events be distributed in the same manner as the Earnest Money.

3.5 Treatment of Earnest Money. The parties hereto agree to treat the Earnest Money and interest accrued thereon as owned by the Purchaser and not received by Seller, in all cases to the extent not paid to Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and to file all tax returns on a basis consistent with such treatment. Until the Closing or other disposition of the Earnest Money in accordance with the terms hereof, the beneficial interest in the Earnest Money remains with Purchaser and all interest and other income earned on the Earnest Money shall be reported as taxable income of Purchaser, and the parties hereto shall file applicable tax forms consistent with such treatment. Any disbursement of the Earnest Money to Seller may be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as consisting, in part, of imputed interest in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

Purchaser shall bear the cost of all such


inspections or tests and shall be responsible for and act as the generator with respect to any wastes generated by those tests, which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.7 hereof, Purchaser or Purchaser’s representatives may communicate with any Seller-designated tenant representative. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.7 hereof, Purchaser or Purchaser’s representatives may communicate with any governmental authority for the sole purpose of gathering information in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. As used in this Section 4.3, “communicate” and “communication” shall mean the initiation of, response to, or sharing or exchange of information, knowledge or messages, whether by oral, written or electronic methods or media, or by any other means in person or otherwise, and includes requests for inspections or other access to any Property.

4.4 Due Diligence/Purchase Price Adjustment.

4.4.1 Purchase Price Adjustment for Certain Matters Discovered During the Inspection Period. Purchaser shall have through the Closing in which to examine, inspect, and investigate the Property Information (the “Property Documents”) and the Property. In the event that Purchaser discovers during the Inspection Period that (a) there exists a material defect to title to a Property rendering title to such Property or a material portion thereof unmarketable or materially adversely affecting the value thereof (other than to the extent attributable to an action or inaction by Purchaser or any affiliate thereof), or (b) there exists a material zoning violation at a Property rendering such Property or any material portion thereof unusable for motor vehicle sales, automobile body services or other automobile services, as applicable for such Property, and the current use applicable for such Property (other than to the extent attributable to an action or inaction by Purchaser or any affiliate thereof), then Purchaser may request an adjustment to the Purchase Price for the applicable Property by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Notice”) on or before the last day of the Inspection Period setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for the requested adjustment and the requested amount of the adjustment, which in no event shall exceed 75% with respect to Subsection (a) hereof, and 25% with respect to Subsection (b) hereof of the portion of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property. If Purchaser does not give a Purchase Price Adjustment Notice for the matters set forth in this Section 4.4.1 prior to the last day of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to any adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 4.4.1.

4.4.2 Purchase Price Adjustment for Certain Environmental Matters. In the event that reports, tests or studies obtained by Purchaser or delivered to Purchaser by Seller after the Effective Date, including without limitation, the 2008 Environmental Reports, indicate the existence or reasonable potential existence of any contamination of any portion of the Property that (i) is not disclosed in the Property Documents delivered to Purchaser prior to the Effective Date (other than the 2008 Environmental Summary) and (ii) is material (meaning that the reasonably estimated cost of remediation and/or other liability associated therewith, as determined by Seller’s environmental consultants, exceeds $100,000 for such Property) and if and only if the applicable tenant or Guarantor is not required to remediate such damage or indemnify the owner of the applicable Property therefor pursuant to the applicable Lease or Guaranty, then Purchaser may request an adjustment to the Purchase Price for such Property by delivering to Seller a Purchase Price Adjustment Notice setting forth in reasonable detail the


reason for the requested adjustment and the requested amount of the adjustment in accordance with the terms of Section 4.4.5 (in no event shall any such adjustment exceed 75% of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property), provided that the Purchase Price Adjustment Notice shall additionally include with copies of the reports, tests or studies identifying such contamination.

4.4.3 Purchase Price Adjustment for Newly Disclosed Information and Rent Adjustment Information.

(a) Newly Disclosed Information. In the event that Newly Disclosed Information (as defined in Section 6.4) is provided that adversely affects a Property or the value thereto of at least $50,000, and if the Indemnity described herein is not provided, then Purchaser may request an adjustment to the Purchase Price for such Property by delivering to Seller a Purchase Price Adjustment Notice setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for the requested adjustment and the requested amount of the adjustment in accordance with the terms of Section 4.4.5 (in no event shall any such adjustment exceed 75% of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property). With respect to Newly Disclosed Information that adversely affects a Property or the value thereof reasonably estimated to be at least $50,000 and such adverse effect cannot be reasonably reduced to, or liquidated to, a monetary amount, iStar Financial Inc. may provide an indemnity in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser indemnifying Purchaser against any loss, cost or damage incurred with respect to such matter, with the liability of iStar Financial Inc. being capped at the Allocated Purchase Price for the applicable Property (the “Indemnity”). If and to the extent that iStar Financial Inc. provides to Purchaser an Indemnity, then Purchaser shall not be entitled to any adjustment of the Purchase Price with respect thereto.

(b) Rent Adjustment Information. In the event that Rent Adjustment Information (as defined in Section 6.4) is provided and such Rent Adjustment Information does NOT constitute a Significant Reduction, then the Allocated Purchase Price for the applicable Property shall be changed to equal the reduced base rent divided by 0.07661. In the event that Rent Adjustment Information is provided and such Rent Adjustment Information does constitute a Significant Reduction, then Seller shall have the rights set forth in Section 6.4; provided, however, that Purchaser and Seller may attempt, but shall not be obligated, to negotiate an agreeable adjustment to the Purchase Price in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.4.5.

4.4.4 Exclusions from Purchase Price Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall have no right to any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 4.4 or Section 6.4 due to (i) the terms of any Lease or Guaranty, except to the extent amended after the Effective Date without Purchaser’s approval as required under the terms of this Agreement and except as expressly permitted under Section 6.4(b), (ii) the environmental condition of any Property except as explicitly provided in Section 4.4.2, (iii) any casualty or condemnation affecting any Property or any portion thereof except as explicitly provided in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, (iv) the fact that the Property located at 3600-3630 West Airport Freeway, Irving, TX is currently being used as a body shop and office space or that the Property located at 3900 West Airport Freeway, Irving, TX is vacant per the terms of a Letter Agreement dated January 11, 2007, (v) any lawsuit affecting any Property for which a tenant or Guarantor is required to indemnify the Property owner, (vi) the Nalley Lexus Work, as defined in Section 6.1.3 or the technical default of the tenant for failure to obtain consent for the


Nalley Lexus Work (it being understood and agreed that Seller has not declared such default in a notice to the tenant with respect thereto), (vii) the Purchase Contracts which are to be assumed by Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof except for Newly Discovered Matters relating thereto, which are subject to Section 6.4(a), (viii) the Unrecorded Agreements, as defined in Section 9.1.12 except for Newly Discovered Matters relating thereto, which are subject to Section 6.4(a), or (ix) matters arising after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date except as explicitly provided for Newly Discovered Matters in Section 6.4(a) or Rent Adjustment Information in Section 6.4(b).

4.4.5 Procedures for Determining Purchase Price Adjustment. During any Price Adjustment Period, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the amount of any adjustment to the Purchase Price of any affected Property. If Seller and Purchaser agree in a writing signed by both parties on an adjustment to the Purchase Price, then such amount shall become final and binding on the parties. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve any disagreement as to amount of any adjustment to the Purchase Price during the Price Adjustment Period, then the dispute will be promptly referred for mandatory arbitration in accordance with Section 12.21, which arbitration shall be final and binding on both Purchaser and Seller, unless parties mutually agree to a different dispute resolution mechanism. In the event that said arbitration (or other dispute resolution mechanism) has not been concluded by the Closing Date, then a portion of the Purchase Price equal to the disputed amount (the “Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited by Escrow Agent into an account maintained by Escrow Agent to be held and disbursed in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J (the “Escrow Agreement”). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement other than as expressly provided in the Permitted Purchaser Termination Provisions, to delay Closing for resolution of any dispute regarding an adjustment to the Purchase Price hereunder (except as expressly provided in Section 6.3 below), or to withhold any portion of the Purchase Price at Closing in lieu of depositing the same with Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that, if Purchaser is permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 4.4, Section 6.2, Section 6.3 or Section 6.4 of this Agreement to, and does so request, a Purchase Price Adjustment for any Property in an amount in excess of 25% of the Allocated Purchase Price therefor, then Seller, at its sole option and by giving written notice to Purchaser within the Price Adjustment Period, may elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property or, in the event such Property is leased pursuant to the McDavid Lease, terminate this Agreement with respect to every Property leased pursuant to the McDavid Lease and the Purchase Price payable under this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of the Allocated Purchase Price for the applicable Property(ies) unless Purchaser elects, within 10 Business Days after receipt of Seller’s notice, to reduce the requested adjustment to the Purchase Price to 25% of the Allocated Purchase Price therefor.

4.5 Return of Documents and Reports. As additional consideration for the transaction contemplated herein, if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise defaults on its obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing for any reason, then, within three (3) Business Days after Seller’s request (which request may be made at Seller’s sole option), Purchaser shall provide to Seller copies of all third party reports, investigations and studies, other than economic analyses (collectively, the “Reports” and, individually, a “Report”) prepared for Purchaser in connection with its due diligence


review of the Property, including, without limitation, any and all Reports involving structural or geological conditions, environmental, hazardous waste or hazardous substances contamination of the Property, if any; provided, however, that as a condition precedent to providing such Reports to Seller, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for all of Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket costs of obtaining such Reports, including the costs of any Reports previously provided to Seller pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof. The Reports shall be delivered to Seller without any representation or warranty as to the completeness or accuracy of the Reports or any other matter relating thereto. Purchaser’s obligation to deliver the Property Documents and the Reports to Seller shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.6 Intentionally Omitted.

4.7 Proprietary Information; Confidentiality. Purchaser acknowledges that the Property Documents are confidential and have been and will be delivered to Purchaser solely to assist Purchaser in determining the feasibility of purchasing the Property. Purchaser shall not use the Property Documents for any purpose other than as set forth in the preceding sentence. Except to the extent known or readily available to the public, Purchaser shall not disclose prior to the Closing the contents to any person other than to the trustees, directors, officers, employees and partners of Purchaser or its parent company, and to Purchaser’s potential lenders, potential investors, attorneys, accountants and other consultants and permitted assignees and to the tenants under the Leases and Guarantor, provided that such persons have agreed to preserve the confidentiality of such information as required hereby, and may be disclosed to the extent required by law (collectively, “Permitted Outside Parties”). At any time and from time to time, within two Business Days after Seller’s request, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a list of all parties to whom Purchaser has provided any Property Documents or any information taken from the Property Documents. Purchaser shall not divulge the contents of the Property Documents and other information except in strict accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in this Section 4.7. In permitting Purchaser to review the Property Documents or any other information, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of confidentiality with respect thereto, and no third party benefits or relationships of any kind, either express or implied, have been offered, intended or created. Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 4.7 and any other confidentiality agreement between Purchaser or its Affiliates and Seller or its Affiliates shall survive: (i) termination of this Agreement, and (ii) Closing solely with respect to financial information provided as part of the Property Documents and indemnification obligations.

4.8 No Representation or Warranty by Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Seller has not made and does not make any warranty or representation regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property Documents or the source(s) thereof. Purchaser further acknowledges that some if not all of the Property Documents were prepared by third parties other than Seller. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or the documents required to be executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Seller expressly disclaims any and all liability for representations or warranties, express or implied, statements of fact and other matters contained in such information, or for omissions from the Property Documents, or in any other written or oral communications transmitted or made available to Purchaser. Purchaser shall rely solely upon its own investigation with respect to the Property, including, without limitation, the Property’s physical, environmental or


economic condition, compliance or lack of compliance with any ordinance, order, permit or regulation or any other attribute or matter relating thereto. Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property Documents and are providing the Property Documents solely as an accommodation to Purchaser.

4.9 Purchaser’s Responsibilities. In conducting any inspections, investigations or tests of the Property and/or Property Documents, Purchaser and its agents and representatives shall: (a) not disturb the tenants or interfere with their use of the Property pursuant to their respective Leases; (b) not interfere with the operation and maintenance of the Property; (c) not damage any part of the Property or any personal property owned or held by any tenant or any third party; (d) not injure or otherwise cause bodily harm to Seller or its agents, guests, invitees, contractors and employees or any tenants or their guests or invitees; (e) comply with all applicable laws; (f) promptly pay when due the costs of all tests, investigations, and examinations done with regard to the Property; (g) not permit any liens to attach to the Real Property by reason of the exercise of its rights hereunder; (h) repair any damage to the Real Property resulting directly or indirectly from any such inspection or tests; and (i) not reveal or disclose prior to Closing any information obtained during the Inspection Period concerning the Property and the Property Documents to anyone other than the Permitted Outside Parties, in accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in Section 4.7 above, or except as may be otherwise required by law. Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 4.9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.10 Purchaser’s Agreement to Indemnify. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all liens, claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of Purchaser’s inspections or tests permitted under this Agreement or any violation of the provisions of Sections 4.3, 4.7 and 4.9; provided, however, the indemnity shall not extend to protect Seller from its own negligence or misconduct or from any pre-existing liabilities for matters merely discovered by Purchaser (i.e., latent environmental contamination) so long as Purchaser’s actions do not aggravate any pre-existing liability of Seller. Purchaser also hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold any tenant harmless from and against any and all claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities and expenses which such tenant may suffer or incur due to Purchaser’s breach of its obligation under Section 4.7 above to maintain the confidential nature of any Property Documents or other information relative to such tenant. Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall survive the Closing.

4.11 Environmental Studies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4.5 above, as additional consideration for the transaction contemplated in this Agreement, Purchaser shall, upon Seller’s request (which request may be made at Seller’s sole option) provide to Seller, promptly following the receipt of same by Purchaser, copies of any and all reports, tests or studies involving contamination of or other environmental concerns relating to the Property received by Purchaser prior to Closing; provided, however, Purchaser shall have no obligation to cause any such tests or studies to be performed on the Property. Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for the costs of such reports, tests or studies if so required under Section 4.5 above. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser has not made and does not make any warranty or representation regarding the truth or accuracy of any such studies or reports. Notwithstanding


Section 4.10 above, Purchaser shall have no liability or culpability of any nature as a result of having provided such information to Seller or as a result of Seller’s reliance thereon or arising out of the fact that Purchaser merely conducted such tests or studies, so long as Purchaser’s actions do not aggravate any pre-existing liability of Seller.

ARTICLE 5

TITLE AND SURVEY

5.1 Title Review. During the Title and Survey Review Period, Purchaser shall review title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Commitment and the Survey. Seller shall have no obligation to cure title objections except financing liens of an ascertainable amount which liens Seller shall cause to be released at or prior to Closing (with Seller having the right to apply the Purchase Price or a portion thereof for such purpose), and Seller shall deliver the Property free and clear of any such financing liens or mechanics’ liens that are attributable to any work or actions of Seller (but not of any tenant); provided, however that the foregoing requirement to discharge liens shall not apply to liens on any tenant’s leasehold estate permitted under the Leases. Seller further agrees to remove any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are voluntarily created by, under or through Seller after the date of the applicable Title Commitment without Purchaser’s consent. The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: the exceptions that are preprinted on the promulgated title insurance form that the title company is unable to remove under applicable insurance regulations, specific exceptions in the Title Commitment that the Title Company has not agreed to remove from the Title Commitment as of the end of the Title and Survey Review Period and that Seller is not required to remove as provided above (including without limitation any exception relating to the Purchase Contracts); matters created by, through or under Purchaser; items shown on the Survey; real estate taxes and special assessments not yet due and payable; rights of tenants under the Leases; rights of licensees under License Agreements; and the items set forth on Schedule 5.3.

5.2 Delivery of Title Policy at Closing. In the event that the Title Company does not issue at Closing, or unconditionally commit at Closing to issue, to Purchaser, owner’s title policies, reflecting the release of any indebtedness (except as to liens on any tenant’s leasehold estate permitted under the Leases) and bringing the title current to the date of the Closing without exceptions other than the standard exclusions from coverage contained in such policy and the Permitted Exceptions and insuring Purchaser’s fee simple title to the Real Property in the amount of the Purchase Price with endorsements for same as survey, zoning (insuring the use of the Property as an automobile dealership or the current use of the Property, if different), comprehensive (T-19 in Texas), contiguity (as applicable), access, separate tax lot, subdivision (as applicable), arbitration deletion, and survey amendment, to the extent available in the state in which such Property is located (the “Title Policy”), Seller shall be entitled to a thirty (30) day period to identify a replacement title company to provide the Title Policy, with a corresponding extension of the Closing Date. If Seller fails to identify a replacement title company within said period, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations, other than those that by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement. Purchaser shall have no right to object to Stewart Title Guaranty Corporation, Chicago Title Insurance Company, Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Corporation, LandAmerica Commercial Services, Lawyers Title (and affiliates of each of the foregoing) as the replacement title company.


ARTICLE 6

OPERATIONS AND RISK OF LOSS

6.1 Ongoing Operations. From the Effective Date through Closing:

6.1.1 Leases and License Agreements. Seller will perform its material obligations under the Leases and License Agreements.

6.1.2 New Contracts. Except as provided in Section 6.1.4, Seller will not enter into any contract that will be an obligation affecting the Property subsequent to the Closing.

6.1.3 Maintenance of Improvements; Removal of Personal Property. Subject to Sections 6.2 and 6.3, Seller shall maintain or cause the tenants under the Leases to maintain all Improvements substantially in their present condition (ordinary wear and tear and casualty excepted) and in a manner consistent with Seller’s maintenance of the Improvements during Seller’s period of ownership. Seller will not remove any Tangible Personal Property except as may be required for necessary repair or replacement, and replacement shall be of approximately equal quality and quantity as the removed item of Tangible Personal Property. Purchaser acknowledges that (i) the Nalley Lexus Work has commenced notwithstanding that the tenant failed to obtain required consent pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lease and (ii) Seller is not requiring that tenant cease such Nalley Lexus Work or provide a notice of default with respect thereto.

6.1.4 Leasing; License Agreements. Seller will not amend or terminate any existing Lease or License Agreement or enter into any new Lease or new License Agreement after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date without (a) providing Purchaser prior written notice thereof and all relevant supporting documentation, as reasonably requested by Purchaser, including, without limitation, tenant financial information to the extent in Seller’s possession, and (b) requesting Purchaser’s approval, which may be given or withheld with respect to License Agreements in Purchaser’s sole discretion or, with respect to Leases, in Purchaser’s sole discretion or such lesser standard as is required of Seller under the applicable Lease. Purchaser agrees to give Seller written notice of approval or disapproval of a proposed amendment or termination of a Lease or License Agreement or new Lease or new License Agreement within two Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of the item described in Section 6.1.4(a). If Purchaser does not respond to Seller’s request within such time period, then Purchaser will be deemed to have approved such amendment, termination or new Lease or new License Agreement.

6.2 Damage. If prior to Closing the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller shall, promptly upon receiving actual knowledge thereof notify Purchaser of the same, and estimate the cost to repair and the time required to complete repairs and will provide Purchaser written notice of Seller’s estimation (the “Casualty Notice”) as soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence of the casualty.


6.2.1 Material. In the event of any Material Damage to or destruction of the Property or any portion thereof after the Effective Date but prior to Closing, and if and only if (i) the applicable tenant or Guarantor is not required to repair the damage pursuant to the applicable Lease or Guaranty, or (ii) the tenant is entitled to and elects to terminate the Lease as result of such casualty or is entitled to a material reduction in its rent as a result of such casualty (either, a “Lease Casualty Event”), then Purchaser may request an adjustment to the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property in accordance with the terms of Section 4.4.5 (in no event shall any such adjustment exceed 75% of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property); provided however, that for purposes of this Section 6.2.1 only, the Price Adjustment Period shall commence on the date on which Seller receives the Purchase Price Adjustment Notice (which shall not later than three Business Days after Purchaser receives the Casualty Notice) and shall expire five Business Days thereafter. The parties shall proceed under this Agreement and close on schedule, and as of Closing Seller shall assign to Purchaser, without representation or warranty by or recourse against Seller, all of Seller’s rights in and to any resulting insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and Purchaser shall assume full responsibility for all needed repairs, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under such insurance policies to the extent not payable by the applicable tenant under the applicable Lease or by Guarantor under the Guaranty (but the amount of the deductible plus insurance proceeds shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the cost of repair or (b) the portion of the Allocated Purchase Price the applicable Property and a pro rata share of the rental or business loss proceeds, if any). For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Damage” and “Materially Damaged” means damage which, in Seller’s reasonable estimation, exceeds $250,000 to repair.

6.2.2 Not Material. If the Property is not Materially Damaged by the casualty and no Lease Casualty Event has occurred, then Purchaser shall have no right to request an adjustment to the Purchase Price under this Agreement, and, if an only if the applicable tenant or Guarantor is not required to repair the damage pursuant to the applicable Lease or Guaranty, Seller shall, at its option, either (a) repair the damage before the Closing in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser (and if necessary, Seller may extend the Closing Date up to 30 days to complete such repairs), or (b) credit Purchaser at Closing for the reasonable cost to complete the repair (in which case Seller shall retain all insurance proceeds and Purchaser shall assume full responsibility for all needed repairs). If the applicable tenant is required to repair the Property under the applicable Lease and no Lease Casualty Event has occurred, then Purchaser shall have no right to request an adjustment to or credit against the Purchase Price under this Agreement or that Seller repair the damage.

6.3 Condemnation

6.3.1 If Seller receives notice of, or proceedings are instituted for, eminent domain with respect to the Property or any portion thereof after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing (a “Condemnation”), and if an only if (i) the applicable tenant or Guarantor is not required to restore the Property pursuant to the applicable Lease or Guaranty, or (ii) the tenant is entitled to and elects to terminate the Lease as result of such condemnation or is entitled to a material reduction in its rent as a result of such condemnation (either, a “Lease Condemnation Event”), then Purchaser may remove such Property from this Agreement and receive an adjustment to the Purchase Price equal to the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property, or


request an adjustment to the Purchase Price for such Property in accordance with the terms of Section 4.4.5 (in no event shall any such adjustment exceed 75% of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property); provided however, that for purposes of this Section 6.3 only, the Price Adjustment Period shall commence on the date on which Seller receives the Purchase Price Adjustment Notice (which shall not later than three Business Days after Purchaser receives the notice of the eminent domain proceeding) and shall expire five Business Days thereafter. In addition to the first sentence of this Section 6.3 (and unless Purchaser elects to remove the applicable Property from this Agreement), in the event a Condemnation, the parties shall proceed under this Agreement and close on schedule, and as of Closing Seller shall assign to Purchaser Seller’s entire right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award, and Purchaser shall have the sole right after the Closing (as between Purchaser and Seller, but subject to the terms of the applicable Lease with respect to any rights of tenant) to negotiate and otherwise deal with the condemning authority in respect of such matter. With respect to the proceedings described in Schedule 6.3 or any proceedings with respect to which the applicable tenant is required to restore the Property under the applicable Lease and no Lease Condemnation Event has occurred, Purchaser shall have no right to request any adjustment to the Purchase Price under this Agreement, and shall proceed under this Agreement and Seller shall, at the Closing, assign to Purchaser Seller’s entire right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award relating thereto, and Purchaser shall have the sole right after the Closing (as between Purchaser and Seller, but subject to the terms of the applicable Lease with respect to any rights of tenant) to negotiate and otherwise deal with the condemning authority in respect of such matter. In the event that the tenant has a right to terminate its Lease as a result of such Condemnation, but the period for tenant’s exercise of such right has not expired and such tenant has not yet affirmatively exercised or declined to exercise such right, then the Property subject to such Condemnation shall be closed in escrow pending the expiration of such period.

6.4 Updated Property Information

From the Effective Date through the Closing Date, if and to the extent that Seller receives from an unaffiliated third-party any additional Property Information not previously provided to Purchaser, or if and to the extent that Seller receives any document, notice or correspondence from an unaffiliated third-party or otherwise obtains actual knowledge from an unaffiliated third-party source of a condition arising after the Effective Date that would render any of the representations and warranties of Seller in Section 9.1 (excluding the representations and warranties contained in Sections 9.1.3 and 9.1.17) untrue if and to the extent remade after the Effective Date, Seller shall promptly so notify Purchaser and deliver all such documents, notices, correspondence or other information in Seller’s possession (“Newly Disclosed Information”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Newly Disclosed Information shall not include, and Seller shall have no obligation to provide to Purchaser and no liability for any change in any representation or warranty after the Effective Date, for any matter disclosed in any additional Property Information or other document, notice, correspondence or other information provided by, or any condition attributable to any action or inaction of, Purchaser or any affiliate thereof, and Purchaser shall have no right to an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result thereof.

(a) From the Effective Date through the Closing Date, if and to the extent that Seller receives any document, notice or correspondence from an unaffiliated third-party or otherwise obtains actual knowledge from an unaffiliated third-party source of a condition arising after the


Effective Date that would change the Base Rent set forth the Rent Roll for any Property or Seller’s representations and warranties in Section 9.1.3 with respect to Base Rent only for any Property, Seller shall promptly so notify Purchaser and deliver all such documents, notices, correspondence or other information in Seller’s possession, together with a reasonable description of the rent and Property affected (“Rent Adjustment Information”). In the event that the Rent Adjustment Information discloses a reduction in the base rent for any Property of fifteen percent (15%) or more (a “Significant Reduction”), in addition to its right to request an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 4.4.3, subject to the following sentence, Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property (or all Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, as applicable) without any liability of Purchaser to Seller. Unless Seller and Purchaser agree to an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result of such Significant Reduction, Seller shall be entitled to a period of 120 days to negotiate with such tenant or Guarantor with respect to the issue identified in such Rent Adjustment Information in order to resolve such issue to Purchaser’s good faith satisfaction. The Closing solely with respect to the Property (or all of the Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, if applicable) subject to such Rent Adjustment Information shall be extended for up to 120 days pending such resolution. In the event that such issue is not resolved to Purchaser’s good faith satisfaction in said period, then this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to such Property (or all of the Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, if applicable) without any liability of Seller to Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Rent Adjustment Information shall not include, and Seller shall have no obligation to provide to Purchaser and no liability for any change in any representation or warranty after the Effective Date, for any matter disclosed in any document, notice, correspondence or other information provided by, or any matter attributable to any action or inaction of, Purchaser or any affiliate thereof, and Purchaser shall have no right to an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result thereof.

If Purchaser is unwilling to close with respect to the applicable Property as a result of such Tenant/Guarantor Disclosure (or all of the Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, if applicable), or accept an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result thereof in accordance with Section 4.4.3, Seller shall be entitled to a period of 120 days to negotiate with such tenant or Guarantor with respect to the issue identified in such Tenant/Guarantor Disclosure in order to resolve such issue to Purchaser’s good faith satisfaction. The Closing solely with respect to the Property (or all of the Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, if applicable) subject to such Tenant/Guarantor Disclosure shall be extended for up to 120 days pending such resolution. In the event that such issue is not resolved to Purchaser’s good faith satisfaction in said period, then this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to such Property (or all of the Properties subject to the McDavid Lease, if applicable) without any liability of Seller to Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall have no obligation to provide to Purchaser and no liability for any change in any representation or warranty after the Effective Date, for any matter disclosed in any document, notice, correspondence or other information provided by, or any matter attributable to any action or inaction of, Purchaser or any affiliate thereof, and Purchaser shall have no right to an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result thereof.

deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of Closing, but shall survive the Closing for a period of nine (9) months with respect to all representations and warranties other than those set forth in Section 8.6 and Section 9.1.3(7) (which shall survive indefinitely) (the “Survival Period”); provided, however, that such representations and warranties shall automatically terminate if (a) prior to the Closing, Purchaser assigns this Agreement in violation of Section 12.1 or (b) following the Closing, any direct or indirect transfer, assignment, conveyance or sale of the Property or any ownership interest in Purchaser occurs other than a conveyance to an affiliate of Purchaser (or a subsidiary of Purchaser’s sole owner) or in connection with a financing of the Property by Purchaser. Terms such as “to Seller’s knowledge,” “to the best of Seller’s knowledge” or like phrases mean the actual present and conscious awareness or knowledge of Mary-Beth Roselle, Stephen Spencer or Vernon Schwartz (“Seller’s Representatives”), without any duty of inquiry or investigation; provided that so qualifying Seller’s knowledge shall in no event give rise to any personal liability on the part of Seller’s Representatives, or any of them, or any other officer or employee of Seller, on account of any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller herein. Said terms do not include constructive knowledge, imputed knowledge, or knowledge Seller or such persons do not have but could have obtained through further investigation or inquiry. No broker, agent, or party other than Seller is authorized to make any representation or warranty for or on behalf of Seller. Each party shall have the right to bring an action against the other on the breach of a representation or warranty or covenant hereunder or in the documents executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at the Closing, but only on the following conditions: (1) the party bringing the action for breach first learns of the breach after Closing and gives written notice of such breach to the other party before the end of the Survival Period and files such action on or before the first day following the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and (2) neither party shall have the right to bring a cause of action for a breach of a representation or warranty or covenant unless the damage to such party on account of such breach (individually or when combined with damages from other breaches) equals or exceeds $50,000, and then only to the extent of such excess. Neither party shall have any liability after Closing for the breach of a representation or warranty or covenant hereunder of which the other party hereto had knowledge as of Closing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any agreement contemplated by this Agreement, or any rights which Purchaser might otherwise have at law, equity, or by statute, whether based on contract or some other claim, Purchaser agrees that the aggregate liability of Seller to Purchaser will be limited to $10,000,000. In no event shall Purchaser have the right to seek, claim or obtain consequential, special or punitive damages against Seller. Any written notice of a claim under this Section 9.3 shall be given in good faith and shall set forth with reasonable specificity the basis for such claim. The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall survive the Closing. Any breach of a representation or warranty or covenant that occurs prior to Closing shall be governed by Article 10.

ARTICLE 10

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

10.1 Seller’s Remedies. If Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise defaults on its obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing in any material respect for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Purchaser’s representations or warranties are breached in any


material respect, and such default or breach is not cured by the fifth (5th) Business Day after written notice thereof from Seller (except no notice or cure period shall apply if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Property hereunder), Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy (except as provided in Sections 4.10, 8.6, 10.3 and 10.4 hereof), to terminate this Agreement and recover the Earnest Money as liquidated damages and not as penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and the Earnest Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of such damages to be certain. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.1 or in Exhibit I to the contrary, in the event of Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser is asserting any claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Seller from having clear, indefeasible and marketable title to the Property, and in said event Seller shall not be required to submit such matter to arbitration as contemplated by Exhibit I. In all other events Seller’s remedies shall be limited to those described in this Section 10.1 and Sections 4.10, 8.6, 10.3 and 10.4 hereof. If Closing is consummated, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser fails to perform any obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement. IN NO EVENT SHALL PURCHASER’S DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. The Closing Date shall be extended, if applicable, to provide the cure period set forth in the first sentence hereof.

10.2 Purchaser’s Remedies. If Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Property pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise defaults on its obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing in any material respect for any reason except failure by Purchaser to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Seller’s representations or warranties are breached in any material respect, and such default or breach is not cured by the fifth (5th) Business Day after written notice thereof from Purchaser (Purchaser hereby agreeing to give such written notice to Seller within one Business Day after Purchaser first learns of any such default or breach by Seller, except no notice or cure period shall apply if Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Property hereunder), Purchaser shall elect, as its sole remedy, either to (a) terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such election prior to or at Closing and recover the Earnest Money and reimbursement from Seller of the actual reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser (but in no event to exceed $500,000) and paid (i) to Purchaser’s attorneys in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the review and analysis of the Property Information and (ii) to unrelated and unaffiliated third party consultants and travel providers in connection with the performance of examinations, inspections and/or investigations pursuant to Article 4, (b) recover the Earnest Money and enforce specific performance to consummate the sale of the Property hereunder, or (c) waive said failure or breach and proceed to Closing without any reduction in the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement if Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to file a claim or assert a cause of action for


specific performance against Seller on or before ten Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date or, having given such notice, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such claim or cause of action in the county in which the Property is located within two months following the scheduled Closing Date. Purchaser’s remedies shall be limited to those described in Section 8.6 or this Section 10.2 and Sections 10.3 and 10.4 hereof. If, however, the equitable remedy of specific performance is not available to Purchaser due to Seller’s frustration of Purchaser’s attempt therefor (as finally determined by a court of law or pursuant to arbitration in accordance with the terms of Exhibit I hereto), Purchaser shall be entitled to liquidated damages from Seller in the amount of $10,000,000 as liquidated damages and not as penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Seller hereunder. IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. The Closing Date shall be extended, if applicable, to provide the cure period set forth in the first sentence hereof.

10.3 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event either party hereto employs an attorney in connection with claims by one party against the other arising from the operation of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party all reasonable fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with such claims.

10.4 Other Expenses. If this Agreement is terminated due to the default of a party as provided in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, then the defaulting party shall pay any fees or charges due to Escrow Agent for holding the Earnest Money as well as any escrow cancellation fees or charges and any fees or charges due to the Title Company for preparation and/or cancellation of the Title Commitment.

ARTICLE 11

DISCLAIMERS, RELEASE AND INDEMNITY

11.1 Disclaimers By Seller. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, it is understood and agreed that Seller and Seller’s agents or employees have not at any time made and are not now making, and they specifically disclaim, any warranties, representations or guaranties of any kind or character, express or implied, with respect to the Property, including, but not limited to, warranties, representations or guaranties as to (a) matters of title (other than Seller’s special warranty of title to be contained in the Deed), (b) environmental matters relating to the Property or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, the presence of Hazardous Materials in, on, under or in the vicinity of the Property, (c) geological conditions, including, without limitation, subsidence, subsurface conditions, water table, underground water reservoirs, limitations regarding the withdrawal of water, and geologic faults and the resulting damage of past and/or future faulting, (d) whether, and to the extent to which the Property or any portion thereof is affected by any stream (surface or underground), body of water, wetlands, flood prone area, flood plain, floodway or special flood hazard, (e) drainage, (f) soil conditions, including the existence of instability, past soil repairs, soil additions or conditions of soil fill, or susceptibility


to landslides, or the sufficiency of any undershoring, (g) the presence of endangered species or any environmentally sensitive or protected areas, (h) zoning or building entitlements to which the Property or any portion thereof may be subject, (i) the availability of any utilities to the Property or any portion thereof including, without limitation, water, sewage, gas and electric, (j) usages of adjoining property, (k) access to the Property or any portion thereof, (l) the value, compliance with the plans and specifications, size, location, age, use, design, quality, description, suitability, structural integrity, operation, title to, or physical or financial condition of the Property or any portion thereof, or any income, expenses, charges, liens, encumbrances, rights or claims on or affecting or pertaining to the Property or any part thereof, (m) the condition or use of the Property or compliance of the Property with any or all past, present or future federal, state or local ordinances, rules, regulations or laws, building, fire or zoning ordinances, codes or other similar laws, (n) the existence or non-existence of underground storage tanks, surface impoundments, or landfills, (o) any other matter affecting the stability and integrity of the Property, (p) the potential for further development of the Property, (q) the merchantability of the Property or fitness of the Property for any particular purpose, (r) the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property Documents, (s) tax consequences, or (t) any other matter or thing with respect to the Property.

11.2 Sale “As Is, Where Is”. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller shall sell and convey to Purchaser and Purchaser shall accept the Property “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS,” except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Purchaser has not relied and will not rely on, and Seller has not made and is not liable for or bound by, any express or implied warranties, guarantees, statements, representations or information pertaining to the Property or relating thereto (including specifically, without limitation, Property information packages distributed with respect to the Property) made or furnished by Seller, or any property manager, real estate broker, agent or third party representing or purporting to represent Seller, to whomever made or given, directly or indirectly, orally or in writing. Purchaser represents that it is a knowledgeable, experienced and sophisticated purchaser of real estate and that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, it is relying solely on its own expertise and that of Purchaser’s consultants in purchasing the Property and shall make an independent verification of the accuracy of any documents and information provided by Seller. Purchaser will conduct such inspections and investigations of the Property as Purchaser deems necessary, including, but not limited to, the physical and environmental conditions thereof, and shall rely upon same. By failing to deliver a Purchase Price Adjustment Notice as permitted or required in this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has afforded Purchaser a full opportunity to conduct such investigations of the Property as Purchaser deemed necessary to satisfy itself as to the condition of the Property and the existence or non-existence or curative action to be taken with respect to any Hazardous Materials on or discharged from the Property, and will rely solely upon same and not upon any information provided by or on behalf of Seller or its agents or employees with respect thereto, other than such representations, warranties and covenants of Seller as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Upon Closing, Purchaser shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, adverse physical or construction defects or adverse environmental, health or safety conditions, may not have been revealed by


Purchaser’s inspections and investigations. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that: (a) Purchaser is represented by legal counsel in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) Purchaser is purchasing the Property for business, commercial, investment or other similar purpose and not for use as Purchaser’s residence. The acknowledgments and representations of Purchaser shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed. Purchaser waives any and all rights or remedies it may have or be entitled to, deriving from disparity in size or from any significant disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.

11.3 Seller Released from Liability. Purchaser acknowledges that it will have the opportunity to inspect the Property during the Inspection Period, and during such period, observe its physical characteristics and existing conditions and the opportunity to conduct such investigation and study on and of the Property and adjacent areas as Purchaser deems necessary, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement and any other document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Purchaser hereby FOREVER RELEASES AND DISCHARGES Seller from all responsibility and liability, including without limitation, liabilities and responsibilities for the lessor’s obligations under the Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date, and liabilities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Of 1980 (42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq.), as amended (“CERCLA”), regarding the condition, valuation, salability or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever (including, but not limited to, with respect to the presence in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters, of Hazardous Materials or other materials or substances that have been or may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and that may need to be specially treated, handled and/or removed from the Property under current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines, and any structural and geologic conditions, subsurface soil and water conditions and solid and hazardous waste and Hazardous Materials on, under, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Property). Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and any other document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Purchaser further hereby WAIVES (and by Closing this transaction will be deemed to have WAIVED) any and all objections and complaints (including, but not limited to, federal, state and local statutory and common law based actions, and any private right of action under any federal, state or local laws, regulations or guidelines to which the Property is or may be subject, including, but not limited to, CERCLA) concerning the physical characteristics and any existing conditions of the Property, including, without limitation, the lessor’s obligations under the Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date. Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future environmental conditions on the Property and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and conditions, including, without limitation, the presence of Hazardous Materials or other contaminants, may not have been revealed by its investigation. If and only if (1) Purchaser is named in any litigation or proceeding, or threat of litigation or proceeding, brought by a party unrelated to Purchaser for any liability or claim related to the Property during Seller’s period of ownership of the Property arising under the CERCLA or any other cause of action based on any other Environmental Statute, and (2) the Environmental Indemnity Condition (as defined below) remains in effect, then such waiver and release provided under the prior sentence shall not apply to the extent that the subject matter of the litigation or proceeding relates to an environmental condition arising during Seller’s period of ownership of the Property and


Purchaser may join Seller in such litigation or proceeding; provided, however, that Purchaser may proceed with such prosecution against Seller only at such time as (A) Purchaser has fully prosecuted such claim against the applicable tenant and Guarantor to the point where a final, non-appealable judgment in any such proceeding is obtained, and then only to the extent such claim is not fully paid for and satisfied out of such judgment, (B) Purchaser has not waived any of its rights or failed to fully pursue its claims against applicable tenant and Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lease and the Guaranty, respectively, and (C) the Environmental Indemnity Condition remains in effect. For the purposes of this Section 11.3, the term “Environmental Indemnity Condition” shall mean that the indemnity provisions of the Lease and the Guaranty shall not have been amended or waived in any way to reduce or waive the Landlord’s (as defined in the applicable Lease) right to indemnification as such right is in effect as of the Closing Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

11.4 “Hazardous Materials” Defined. For purposes hereof, “Hazardous Materials” means “Hazardous Material,” “Hazardous Substance,” “Pollutant or Contaminant,” and “Petroleum” and “Natural Gas Liquids,” as those terms are defined or used in Section 101 of CERCLA, and any other substances regulated because of their effect or potential effect on public health and the environment, including, without limitation, PCBs, lead paint, asbestos, urea formaldehyde, radioactive materials, putrescible materials, and infectious materials.

11.5 Indemnity. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless of and from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, and expenses of any kind or nature which accrue after Closing and which are in any way related to the ownership, maintenance, or operation of the Property by Purchaser and its successors and assigns, including, without limitation, in connection with Hazardous Materials; provided, however, that Purchaser shall be under no obligation to indemnify Seller for any matter which is the subject of an intentional misrepresentation by Seller in this Agreement or any other document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing.

11.6 Survival. The terms and conditions of this Article 11 shall expressly survive the Closing, not merge with the provisions of any closing documents, including without limitation the Deed.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the disclaimers and other agreements set forth herein are an integral part of this Agreement and that Seller would not have agreed to sell the Property to Purchaser for the Purchase Price without the disclaimers and other agreements set forth above.

The failure by either party to enforce against the other any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to enforce against the other party the same or any other such term or provision in the future.

12.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including validity, construction, interpretation and effect, by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

12.5 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement that contemplate performance after the Closing and the obligations of the parties not fully performed at the Closing (other than any unfulfilled closing conditions which have been waived or deemed waived by the other party) shall survive the Closing and shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of Closing.

Except for facsimile and electronic mail notices as described above, no notice hereunder shall be effective if sent or delivered by electronic means. In no event shall this Agreement be altered, amended or modified by electronic mail or electronic record. A party’s address may be changed by written notice to the other party; provided, however, that no notice of a change of address shall be effective until actual receipt of such notice.

12.11 Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and agree that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.


12.12 Calculation of Time Periods; Business Day. Unless otherwise specified, in computing any period of time described herein, the day of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be included, unless such last day is not a Business Day, in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which is a Business Day.

As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday for national banks in the city of New York, New York.

12.13 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one Agreement. To facilitate execution of this Agreement, the parties may execute and exchange by telephone facsimile counterparts of the signature pages, provided that executed originals thereof are forwarded to the other party on the same day by any of the delivery methods set forth in Section 12.10 other than facsimile.

12.14 No Recordation. Without the prior written consent of Seller, there shall be no recordation of either this Agreement or any memorandum hereof, or any affidavit pertaining hereto, and any such recordation of this Agreement or memorandum or affidavit by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller shall constitute a default hereunder by Purchaser, whereupon Seller shall have the remedies set forth in Section 10.1 hereof. In addition to any such remedies, Purchaser shall be obligated to execute an instrument in recordable form releasing this Agreement or memorandum or affidavit, and Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Section 12.14 shall survive any termination of this Agreement as a surviving obligation.

12.15 Further Assurances. In addition to the acts and deeds recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed and/or delivered by either party at Closing, each party agrees to perform, execute and deliver, but without any obligation to incur any additional liability or expense, on or after the Closing any further deliveries and assurances as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or to further perfect the conveyance, transfer and assignment of the Property to Purchaser.

12.16 Discharge of Obligations. The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every representation and warranty made by Seller herein and every agreement and obligation on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except those which are herein specifically stated to survive Closing.

12.17 ERISA. Under no circumstances shall Purchaser have the right to assign this Agreement to any person or entity owned or controlled by an employee benefit plan if Seller’s sale of the Property to such person or entity would, in the reasonable opinion of Seller’s ERISA advisors or consultants, create or otherwise cause a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA. In the event Purchaser assigns this Agreement or transfers any ownership interest in Purchaser, and such assignment or transfer would make the consummation of the transaction hereunder a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA and necessitate the termination of this Agreement then, notwithstanding any contrary provision which may be contained herein, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement.


12.18 No Third Party Beneficiary. The provisions of this Agreement and of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing are and will be for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser only and are not for the benefit of any third party, and accordingly, no third party shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing, except that a tenant of the Property may enforce Purchaser’s indemnity obligation under Section 4.10 hereof.

12.19 Reporting Person. Purchaser and Seller hereby designate the Title Company as the “reporting person” pursuant to the provisions of Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

12.20 Bankruptcy/Guaranty Default or Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that on the last Business Day prior to the Closing Date (i) there exists an undismissed bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding against Seller or, unless Purchaser is an affiliate thereof, Guarantor or (ii) unless Purchaser is an affiliate of Guarantor, the Guaranty has terminated or Guarantor is in material monetary default thereunder, then Purchaser shall have the right and option to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller on the last Business Day prior to the Closing Date and in such event, Purchaser shall receive a full refund of the Earnest Money (other than as provided in Section 3.3) and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, other than those that by their terms survive termination of this Agreement.

12.21 Mandatory Arbitration. The parties have agreed to submit disputes to mandatory arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit I hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes. Each of Seller and Purchaser waives the right to commence an action in connection with this Agreement in any court and expressly agrees to be bound by the decision of the arbitrator determined in Exhibit I. The waiver of this Section 12.21 will not prevent Seller or Purchaser from commencing an action in any court for the sole purposes of enforcing the obligation of the other party to submit to binding arbitration or the enforcement of an award granted by arbitration herein or as expressly permitted by Section 10.1 or Section 10.2 hereof or for injunctive relief. The terms of this Section 12.21 shall survive (a) the termination of this Agreement, and (b) the Closing.

12.22 Waiver of Jury Trial. SELLER AND PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS). THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO
