2.2    Due Diligence.

2.2.1    Purchaser shall, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, have through 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period in which to examine, inspect, and investigate the Property and, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute judgment and discretion, to determine whether the Property is acceptable to Purchaser, as well as to review title and obtain all necessary internal approvals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser may notify Seller and Escrow Holder of Purchaser’s election to proceed with the transactions described by this Agreement by giving written notice of approval to Seller and Escrow Holder (“Due Diligence Approval Notice”), so long as such notice is received by Seller and Escrow Holder at or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period. Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, for any reason or no reason, at any time on or before said time and date of expiration of the Due Diligence Period. If Purchaser fails to deliver the Due Diligence Approval Notice at or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period, this Agreement shall be terminated without further action by Purchaser and Seller and the Escrow Holder shall immediately pay the Earnest Money to Purchaser, without further authorization required from Seller. If Purchaser timely delivers the Due Diligence Approval Notice to Seller and Escrow Holder, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Purchaser shall have no further right or opportunity to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Subsection 2.2.1. If this Agreement terminates pursuant to this Subsection 2.2.1, the Earnest Money shall be immediately refunded to Purchaser by Escrow Holder without further authorization from Seller and Purchaser shall return and/or deliver to Seller all documents, information, reports, etc., including without limitation the Property Information, provided by Seller, including Asset Manager, Property Manager and Broker, and all further rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate except any provisions which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement. In the event Purchaser so elects not to proceed with the transactions described by this Agreement, then Purchaser shall also deliver to Seller, upon Seller’s written request, copies of all third party reports, investigations and studies, other than economic analyses (collectively, the “Reports” and, individually, a “Report”) prepared for, and delivered to, Purchaser in connection with its due diligence review of the Property provided that Seller first reimburses Purchaser for the actual cost incurred by Purchaser to obtain the Reports. Such Reports shall be delivered to Seller without any representation or warranty from Purchaser as to the completeness or accuracy of the Reports or any other matter relating thereto, and Seller shall have no right to rely on any Report without the written consent of the Purchaser and the party preparing same. Purchaser’s obligations under and pursuant to this Subsection 2.2.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

2.2.2    Subject always to the terms of the Leases, including the rights of the tenants under and/or pursuant to such Leases, upon at least forty-eight (48) hours’ prior written notice to Seller, and after providing to Seller reasonably satisfactory evidence of appropriate liability insurance (i.e., at least $5,000,000.00 in coverage pursuant to a commercial general liability insurance policy, written on an occurrence basis, issued by an insurance company reasonably acceptable to Seller and which includes a certificate of insurance naming Seller, Asset Manager and Property Manager as additional insureds), Purchaser shall have reasonable access to the Property for the purpose of conducting surveys, architectural, engineering, geotechnical and environmental inspections and tests (including, but subject to the qualifications, limitations and prohibitions set forth hereinbelow, intrusive inspection and sampling, if there is a reasonable basis for the same and provided Purchaser gives Seller two (2) business days’ prior notice of any intrusive inspection or sampling, Purchaser obtains from Seller Seller’s prior written consent which, with respect to intrusive inspection or sampling, may be granted or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion and, prior to performing the same, Purchaser delivers a certificate of insurance to Seller evidencing that Purchaser has in place reasonable amounts of liability insurance for its activities on the Property and has named Seller, Asset Manager and Property Manager as an additional insured thereunder), and any other inspections, studies, or tests reasonably required by Purchaser. Purchaser and its agents, employees, and representatives shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, have a continuing right of reasonable access to the Property during the pendency of this Agreement for the purposes permitted by this Agreement. In the course of its investigations, Purchaser may make (solely for the purpose of requesting copies of existing reports and without identifying the proposed sale) inquiries to third parties, such as municipal, local and other government officials and representatives, and Seller consents to such inquiries, subject to the following: (a) Purchaser shall not contact tenants, lenders, contractors or property managers without Seller’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, but may (for example) be conditioned upon Seller or Seller’s representative(s), if Seller so elects, being present, either in person or by telephone; and (b) Purchaser shall not request any governmental inspection or investigation of the Property. In any event, Purchaser shall keep the Property free and clear of any liens and Purchaser will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller, Asset Manager, Property Manager and the Property free and harmless of, from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, asserted against Seller, Asset Manager, Property Manager or the Property or otherwise caused or suffered as a result of any such entry by Purchaser, its agents, representatives, employees, contractors and/or other consultants. The foregoing indemnity shall not, however, apply to the mere discovery of a pre-existing condition at the Property; but it shall apply otherwise, including, without limitation, in the event and to the extent Purchaser’s investigation, due diligence and/or other acts or omissions cause, contribute to or exacerbate such or any other condition. If any inspection, test or other entry disturbs the Property, Purchaser will restore the Property to the same condition as existed prior to any such inspection, test or other entry. The obligations of Purchaser under the preceding three (3) sentences shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

2.2.3    AMEX Interview. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange an interview between the Purchaser and the Director of Corporate Real Estate, a Vice President or an equivalent position for AMEX. Seller may attend any such interview and such interview may take place via a teleconference.

2.3    Estoppel Certificates. Seller shall make good faith commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser, prior to the Closing, a tenant estoppel certificate from the tenants with respect to each of the Leases, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I. In the event that, as of the date that is two (2) business days prior to the originally scheduled Closing Date, Seller is unable to obtain estoppel certificates necessary to satisfy the contingency set forth in this Section 2.3, then the Closing Date shall automatically be extended until the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is three (3) business days after the estoppel contingency set forth in this Section 2.3 has been satisfied or (ii) the date that is fifteen (15) days after the originally scheduled Closing Date. In the event that, on prior to the date which is two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), Seller is unable to deliver to Purchaser said certificates duly executed by the tenants under the Leases, Purchaser may elect (in a written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder prior to the Closing) to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money; and such termination shall otherwise be as provided in the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above, provided, however, that, Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money in the event Seller delivers to Purchaser by such date estoppel certificates executed by the tenants under the Leases in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Leases and such estoppel certificates contain no claimed material default by landlord or other material adverse matters. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure of Seller to obtain a tenant estoppel certificate (or the refusal of Seller to correct any claimed default by landlord under a Lease) shall not be and shall not be deemed to be a breach of or default under this Agreement. Purchaser need not accept any tenant estoppel certificate (i) dated no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date or (ii) which contains material changes (including a claimed material default by landlord or other material adverse matters).

2.4    Compliance with Leases. In connection with Purchaser’s due diligence investigations and the consummation of the transaction set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser shall comply (and shall be responsible for causing its employees, agents, consultants and other representatives to comply) with the terms and conditions imposed in the Leases, including without limitation, the terms of Articles 15 and 23 and Sections 25.27 and 25.28 of the Leases.

3.1    Delivery of Title Commitment and Survey. If not already provided, Seller and/or Purchaser shall request that Title Company cause to be prepared and delivered to Purchaser and its counsel (as well as to Seller and its counsel), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, a commitment for title insurance or preliminary title report issued by Title Company (the “Title Commitment”), in the amount of the Purchase Price, with Purchaser as the proposed insured, accompanied by copies of all documents referred to in the Title Commitment. Seller has delivered to Purchaser, or shall deliver to Purchaser as part of the Property Information, a current ALTA-ACSM Urban survey of the Property (“Survey”). Seller hereby acknowledges that Purchaser has requested from Littlejohn, Inc. (the “Surveyor”) an update to the Survey (“Updated Survey”), and expects the delivery of such Updated Survey to occur on or prior to 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time on April 20, 2015 (the “Expected Survey Delivery Date”). To the extent the Surveyor fails to deliver the Updated Survey to Purchaser by the Expected Survey Delivery Date, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Due Diligence Period shall be automatically extended to the date which is three (3) business days following delivery of an electronic copy of the Updated Survey to the Purchaser for the sole and limited of purpose of permitting Purchaser to object, prior to the expiration of such extended Due Diligence Period, to matters reflected on the Updated Survey which were not included on the Survey.

3.2    Title Review and Cure. During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall review title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Commitment and the Survey. Also during the Due Diligence Period, Seller will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in curing any reasonable objections Purchaser may have with respect to matters disclosed on the Title Commitment of which Purchaser notifies Seller at least five (5) days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period; provided, however, that Seller shall not have any obligation to spend money or incur any other obligation, liability or duty in connection with such cooperation, except as hereafter provided in this Section 3.2; and, except as otherwise specifically provided below in this Section 3.2, Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period as a result of the existence or continued existence of title or survey matters, issues and/or objections. Seller shall have no obligation to cure title objections except financing, mechanics, or judgment liens of an ascertainable amount created by, under or through Seller (as well as past due and payable taxes and assessments), which liens Seller shall cause to be released (at Seller’s expense, including any recording fees incurred or to be incurred in connection therewith) at or prior to the Closing. Seller further agrees to remove (at Seller’s expense, including any recording fees incurred or to be incurred in connection therewith) any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are voluntarily created by, under or through Seller after the Effective Date without Purchaser’s consent; however, if requested, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition to Purchaser’s termination right as set forth in Subsection 2.2.1, Purchaser may also terminate this Agreement and receive an immediate refund of the Earnest Money, without further authorization from Seller, if the Title Company revises the Title Commitment after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to add or modify any exceptions which materially adversely affect the Property (other than to disclose those items noted on the Survey), or to add or modify the conditions to obtaining any endorsement requested by Purchaser and agreed to be provided by Title Company during the Due Diligence Period, if such additions or modifications are in writing, are not reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and are not removed by the Closing Date (and such termination shall otherwise be as provided in the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above). Seller’s obligations as set forth in, but as limited by, the second, third and fourth sentences of this Section 3.2 shall apply to all matters disclosed by any revision to the Title Commitment by the Title Company after expiration of the Due Diligence Period. The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean and include the following: (i) the specific exceptions (i.e., the “special” or other exceptions that are not part of the promulgated title insurance form) in the Title Commitment that Title Company has not agreed to insure over or remove from the Title Commitment as of the end of the Due Diligence Period and that Seller is not required to remove as provided above; (ii) matters created by, through or under Purchaser; (iii) items shown on the Survey which have not been removed as of the end of the Due Diligence Period; (iv) real estate taxes not yet due and payable; (v) the rights of the tenants under or pursuant to the Leases; and (vi) the impact of any federal, state, local and other laws, rules, regulations and ordinances, including without limitation, zoning ordinances.

3.3    Delivery of Title Policy at Closing. The parties shall instruct Title Company to issue at Closing, or to unconditionally commit at Closing to issue, to Purchaser, the Title Company’s most current form of standard (i.e., not extended) ALTA (or other customarily provided non-ALTA) owner’s coverage (the “Owner’s Policy”) insuring Purchaser’s title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions as well as any and all other standard or required exclusions. If further coverage (e.g., ALTA or ALTA extended coverage) or endorsements are desired by Purchaser, Purchaser shall order the same directly from Title Company and shall undertake all reasonable actions which may be reasonably required as a condition to the issuance of such further coverage or endorsements. Seller shall not be obligated to undertake any action or pay any monies as a condition precedent to the issuance of such further coverage or endorsements to the Owner’s Policy which would not otherwise be required of Seller in regard to the issuance of a standard coverage owner’s policy or to remove any standard exceptions therefrom requiring more of Seller than delivery of an “Owner’s Affidavit” in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto.

3.4    Title and Survey Costs; Escrow Fees. The cost to prepare the Title Commitment and the premium for the (base/standard) Owner’s Policy shall be paid by Seller. The premium for any upgrade to ALTA extended coverage (i.e., providing for the deletion of regional exceptions) and/or any other upgrade in coverage, including without limitation endorsements, shall be paid by Purchaser. At Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for the cost of the Survey, zoning report, Phase I Report and tank tightness/leak mitigation test in an amount not to exceed $16,155.00. Except as otherwise provided herein, Escrow Holder’s charges and/or fees shall be paid as follows: one-half (½) by Seller and one-half (½) by Purchaser. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all other charges shall be allocated in accordance with customary practice in the locale of the Property (i.e., Phoenix, Arizona). In addition, Seller and Purchaser shall each pay the costs of their respective counsel.

4.1    Ongoing Operations. During the pendency of this Agreement:

4.1.1    Performance under Leases. Seller will perform, in a manner consistent with its prior performance, the material obligations of landlord under the Leases.

4.1.2    New Contracts. Seller will not enter into, amend or terminate any contract that will be an obligation affecting the Property subsequent to the Closing, except contracts entered into, amended or terminated in the ordinary course of business that are terminable without cause and without penalty prior to the Closing. Unless Purchaser notifies Seller otherwise, Seller shall, at no cost or expense to Purchaser and on or prior to the Closing, terminate all service contracts or other service agreements relating to the maintenance and/or operation of the Property to which Seller is a party, including, without limitation, any agreements with Property Manager or Asset Manager with respect to the Property.

4.1.3    Maintenance of Improvements. Subject to Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 below (as well as the obligations of the tenants under Leases; e.g., Purchaser shall not look to Seller for the performance of maintenance required by the tenants under the Leases), Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain all Improvements in their present condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear, damage and destruction, as well as rights and obligations of the tenants, excepted).

4.1.4    Removal of Personal Property. Seller will not remove or permit the removal of any Tangible Personal Property, except as may be required for necessary repair or replacement, and replacement shall be of equal quality and quantity as existed as of the time of its removal as reasonably determined by Seller.

4.1.5    Leasing Arrangements. During the pendency of this Agreement, Seller will continue to lease and otherwise operate the Property in accordance with Seller’s usual custom and practice; provided, however, that after the execution of this Agreement, Seller will not voluntarily amend, terminate or enter into any Lease without Purchaser’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser agrees to give Seller written notice of approval or disapproval of a proposed amendment, termination or new Lease within three (3) business days after Purchaser’s receipt of (i) a copy of such amendment, termination or Lease, (ii) any reasonably relevant supporting documentation, including without limitation financial information, in Seller’s possession, (iii) Seller’s written request for approval, and (iv)  information regarding tenant improvement costs and brokerage commissions to be incurred with respect to the amendment, termination or Lease.

4.1.6    Notices. Seller shall promptly furnish to Purchaser copies of any written notices received by Seller after the Effective Date, which notices relate to (i) any suit, action, arbitration, judgment or other proceeding filed, entered or threatened with respect to the Property or any portion thereof or Seller’s use or ownership thereof, (ii) any actual or contemplated changes in zoning of the Property or any other legal requirement which would adversely affect the operation, use, ownership or maintenance of the Property, (iii) any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings affecting the Property or any portion thereof; (iv) any material violation of any environmental law or any zoning, health, fire, safety or other law, regulation or code applicable to the Property; and (v) any default by any other party or notice of claim of default by Seller made by any other party under any of the Leases.

4.1.7    Encumbrances. Seller shall not grant any easements or title encumbrances that will affect the Property or any portion thereof after the Closing Date without the Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

4.2    Damage. In the event of any material damage to or destruction of the Improvements or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option by notice to Seller given within ten (10) days after Seller notifies Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full ten (10) day period to make such election), either (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser without

further authorization from Seller (and such termination shall otherwise be as provided in the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above), or (ii) proceed under this Agreement, receive any insurance proceeds (including rent loss insurance, if any, applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall (except as provided for below and subject to the limitations herein) receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured or Seller/self-insured amount under applicable property or casualty/liability insurance policies less any costs or expenses incurred by Seller prior to the Closing in connection with the repair of such damage. If Purchaser elects (ii) above, Purchaser may extend the Closing Date for up to an additional ten (10) day period in which to obtain insurance settlement agreements with Seller’s insurers, and Seller will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds and such agreements from Seller’s insurers. If the Improvements are not materially damaged, then Purchaser shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided below) have the right to terminate this Agreement, but Seller shall, at its cost, repair the damage before the Closing in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or, if repairs cannot be completed before the Closing or if Seller otherwise elects (in Seller’s sole discretion) not to commence or complete such repairs, credit Purchaser at Closing for the reasonably estimated cost to complete the repair (exclusive of insurance proceeds paid or to be paid and subject to the limitation on credits for uninsured amounts set forth herein). For the purposes of this Agreement, “material damage” and “materially damaged” means damage (i) reasonably exceeding five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price to repair; (ii) causing AMEX to lose access to the Property on a permanent basis; (iii) permitting AMEX to permanently reduce its rent in accordance with either of the AMEX Leases; or (iv) permitting AMEX to terminate either of the AMEX Leases (unless AMEX waives such termination right, in writing). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event of (y) an uninsured loss reasonably estimated to be in excess of $25,000.00, and (z) Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion, notifies Purchaser, in writing, that Seller has elected not to provide Purchaser with a credit, at Closing, for the estimated amount of such uninsured loss in excess of $25,000.00 (less any costs incurred by Seller prior to Closing in connection with the repair of such damage), then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller prior to the earlier to occur of (1) the date that is five (5) business days after Purchaser receives the written notice from Seller as described in clause (z) above or (2) the Closing Date, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser and such termination shall otherwise be as provided in the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above; for the purposes of this sentence, an “uninsured loss” shall mean any loss not covered by Seller’s existing insurance but shall not include the deductible amount of the relevant insurance policy or policies. Seller shall make the election set forth in clause (z) above on or prior to the date that is ten (10) business days after Seller obtains knowledge of the amount of the uninsured loss, based upon reasonable contractor repair/restoration estimates obtained by Seller (such date, the “Uninsured Loss Determination Date”); provided, however, that if the Uninsured Loss Determination Date has not occurred as of the Closing Date, then Seller may elect to extend the Closing Date until the date that is five (5) business days after the Uninsured Loss Determination Date occurs provided Seller delivers written notice to Purchaser of such election to extend the Closing Date prior to the occurrence of the then scheduled Closing Date.

4.3    Condemnation. In the event any proceedings in eminent domain are instituted by anybody having the power of eminent domain with respect to the entire Property or any material portion thereof as reflected in a written notice received by Seller, Purchaser may, at its option by notice to Seller given within ten (10) days after Seller notifies Purchaser in writing of such proceedings (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full ten (10) day period to make such election), either (i) terminate this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser without further authorization from Seller (and such termination shall otherwise be as provided in the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above), or (ii) proceed under this Agreement, in which event Seller shall, at the Closing, assign to Purchaser its entire right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award, and Purchaser shall have the right during the pendency of this Agreement to participate in negotiations with the condemning authority in respect of such matter. For the purposes of this Section 4.3 of the Agreement, “material” means any eminent domain proceeding which (i) causes AMEX to lose access to the Property on a permanent basis; (ii) permits AMEX to permanently reduce its rent in accordance with either of the AMEX Leases; or (iii) permits AMEX to terminate either of the AMEX Leases (unless AMEX waives such termination right, in writing).

4.4    Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as set forth in Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser without further authorization from Seller, and all further rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate except for any provisions which, by their terms, survive the termination of this Agreement (and such termination shall otherwise be in accordance with the last four (4) sentences of Subsection 2.2.1 above).

5.1    Closing. The consummation of the transaction contemplated herein (“Closing”) shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of Escrow Holder. Closing shall occur through an escrow with Escrow Holder. Funds shall be deposited into and held by Escrow Holder in a closing escrow account with a bank satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller.

(i) that deposit of the Deeds with the appropriate recorder’s office (or that Escrow Holder holds the Deeds for as well as in anticipation of depositing it with the recorder’s office, shall do so and that the same) constitutes Escrow Holder’s representation that Escrow Holder is holding the closing documents (other than the Deeds, if already deposited with the recorder’s office), closing funds and closing statements and is prepared and irrevocably committed to disburse the closing funds in accordance with the closing statements and (ii) that release of funds to Seller shall irrevocably commit Title Company to issue the Owner’s Policy in accordance with this Agreement. Provided such supplemental escrow instructions are not in conflict with this Agreement as it may be amended in writing from time to time, Seller and Purchaser agree to execute such supplemental escrow instructions as may be appropriate to enable Escrow Holder to comply with the terms of this Agreement; however, the supplemental escrow instructions shall not act to extend or provide any extension of any period(s) of performance, notice, grace or cure under this Agreement unless specifically referenced and agreed to, in writing, by both Purchaser and Seller or their respective counsel.

Notwithstanding any termination in accordance with the foregoing and except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence and in Section 7.5, the failure of a condition which also constitutes a breach by a party of an obligation of such party shall not relieve such breaching party from any liability it would otherwise have under this Agreement for such breach.

6.1.2    Collected Rent. All collected rent and other income (and any applicable state or local tax on rent) under Leases in effect on the Closing Date; for the purposes of this Subsection 6.1.2, the term “rent” shall mean and include so-called “additional rent,” including, without limitation, any operating expense pass-throughs, so-called “CAM” or common area maintenance charges, and the like. Seller shall be charged with any rentals collected by Seller before Closing but applicable to any period of time after Closing. Uncollected rent and other income shall not be prorated. If Purchaser collects delinquencies after Closing, Purchaser shall apply such rent to the obligations then due and owing to Purchaser for its period of ownership and to reasonable costs of collection actually incurred, remitting the balance, if any, to Seller. Purchaser shall bill and attempt to collect such delinquent rent in the ordinary course of business, but shall not be obligated to engage a collection agency or to take legal action to collect any delinquencies. To the extent not applicable to periods prior to the Closing, rent received by Seller after the Closing shall be immediately forwarded by Seller to Purchaser for disposition in accordance with this Subsection 6.1.2.

6.1.3    Utilities. There shall be no proration of utilities as the tenants are obligated to pay such utilities directly to the utility providers pursuant to the Leases.

By way of illustration, if the Closing Date were to occur on May 12, 2015, at Closing, Seller would provide Purchaser with a credit, pursuant to this Section 6.1.5, in the amount of $144,757.40 (See Schedule 6.1.5 attached hereto).

6.2    Final Adjustments After Closing.

6.2.1    Final Bills and Adjustments. In the event that final bills are not available or cannot be issued prior to Closing for any item being prorated under Section 6.1, then Purchaser and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as such bills are available; final adjustment is to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing, but in any event prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the Closing Date. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due within thirty (30) days of written notice.

6.2.2    Operating Expense Pass-Throughs. Seller, as landlord under the Leases, may currently be collecting from Tenant under the Leases additional rent to cover taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other operating costs and expenses (collectively, “Operating Expense Pass-Throughs”) incurred by Seller in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance and management of the Property. If Seller has collected estimated payments of Operating Expense Pass-Throughs in excess of or in an amount less than Tenant’s share of such expenses with respect to the period during which Seller owned the Property, then the parties shall make an adjusting payment between them when the correct amounts can be determined, but in any event prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, subject, however, to the following: For a period not to exceed six (6) months after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller, as well as Asset Manager and Property Manager, free and harmless of, from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or suffered, arising out of, resulting from or in any way relating to any failure or alleged failure by Purchaser in crediting and/or reimbursing Tenant for an overpayment which overpayment is credited or reimbursed by Seller to Purchaser for further credit or reimbursement hereunder; Purchaser shall make good faith reasonable efforts to collect amounts owing from Tenant to Seller as a result of under- payment (for example, as a result of estimated expenses being less than actual expenses) and shall pay the same to Seller immediately upon (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days of) receipt but such efforts shall not limit Seller’s rights and remedies as provided in Subsection 6.1.2 above.

6.2.3    Survival. Each party’s obligations, liabilities and duties under this Section 6.2 shall survive the Closing.

6.3    Utility Deposits. Seller shall receive a credit for the amount of deposits, if any, with utility companies that are transferable and that are assigned to Purchaser at the Closing.

6.4    Commissions. Each of Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant to the other that it has not dealt with any real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this transaction other than Broker.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Broker is an independent contractor and that neither Broker nor any other broker, agent, representative or any other person or entity is authorized to make any agreement or representation for or on behalf of Seller. Additionally, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall not be responsible for the payment of any broker, agent, representative or any other person or entity retained by Purchaser. Subject to the foregoing terms of this Subsection 6.4, in the event of any claim for broker’s or finder’s fees or commissions in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any such claim by a broker, finder, agent or other representative claiming by, through or under the indemnifying party. Each party’s obligations, liabilities and duties under this Section 6.4 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement; however, Seller’s liability under this Section 6.4 shall not be subject to the “Cap” referenced in Section 7.5 of this Agreement.

Except as expressly and specifically otherwise provided herein (i.e., in the first proviso in the immediately preceding sentence referring to Subsection 7.2.3), Seller and Purchaser shall have the right to bring an action thereon only if Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, files such action within the Survival Period and delivers written notice to the other party, prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, that such action has been commenced; the parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing as well as otherwise confirming that, except as expressly and specifically provided in the first proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, it is their intent to limit the period of time within which to bring an action, so that claims must be filed and notice provided in accordance with the time periods specified herein regardless of any applicable statute of limitations. Each party agrees to defend and indemnify the other against any claim, liability, damage or expense asserted against or suffered by such other party arising out of the breach or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have no right to bring a cause of action or to seek indemnification for a breach of a representation or warranty unless (i) the damage to Purchaser on account of such breach (individually or when combined with damages from other breaches) equals or exceeds $100,000.00 (the “Floor Amount”), (ii) such action is permitted under Section 7.5, and (iii) such action is timely filed (and written notice of the commencement of such action is provided to the other party) in accordance with this Section 7.3. Additionally, in no event shall Seller’s liability under this Agreement exceed, and Seller’s liability shall be “capped” at, $1,500,000.00, all in accordance with Section 7.5.

7.4    Knowledge. Terms such as “to Seller’s knowledge,” “to the best of Seller’s knowledge” or like phrases, when used in this Article 7 (or elsewhere in this Agreement), mean only the actual personal knowledge of David Hubbs and Dan O’Hare, who are employees of Asset Manager, without imputation and without any duty of inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that so qualifying Seller’s knowledge shall in no event give rise to any personal obligation, liability or duty on the part of David Hubbs, Dan O’Hare, Asset Manager or any other trustee, director, officer, employee, representative or agent of Seller or Asset Manager on account of any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller herein. Terms such as “to Purchaser’s knowledge,” “to the best of Purchaser’s knowledge” or like phrases, when used in this Article 7 (or elsewhere in this Agreement), mean only the actual personal knowledge of Louis Sohn, without imputation and without any duty of inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that so qualifying Purchaser’s knowledge shall in no event give rise to any personal obligation, liability or duty on the part of Louis Sohn or any other trustee, director, officer, employee, representative or agent of Purchaser on account of any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser herein.

7.5    Cap on Liability; Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including without limitation the indemnity from Seller in favor of Purchaser set forth in Section 7.3, except as specifically provided in Section 8.1, NO CLAIM FOR A BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF SELLER SHALL BE ACTIONABLE OR PAYABLE IF THE BREACH IN QUESTION WAS KNOWN TO PURCHASER PRIOR TO CLOSING. If a breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant of Seller occurs or becomes known to Purchaser after Closing, a claim for a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller shall be actionable only if the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than the Floor Amount, in which event the full amount of such claim shall be actionable up to the Cap, and provided written notice containing a description of the specific nature of such breach shall have been given by Purchaser to Seller prior to the expiration of the Survival Period set forth in Section 7.3 and an action shall have been commenced by Purchaser against Seller prior to the expiration of the Survival Period and written notice of the commencement of such action shall have been delivered to Seller by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Survival Period; again, the parties hereby acknowledging and otherwise confirming that it is their intent as well as Purchaser's agreement to limit the period of time within which Purchaser may bring an action, so that claims, if they may be brought at all, must be filed (and written notice thereof delivered to Seller) in accordance within the time periods specified herein, regardless of any applicable statute of limitations. As used herein, the term “Cap” shall mean the total aggregate amount of $1,500,000.00. In no event shall Seller’s aggregate liability to Purchaser for breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller in this Agreement, in any certificate, instrument or other document delivered by Seller in connection with this Agreement, the Closing, or otherwise, exceed the amount of the Cap. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, neither the Cap nor the Floor Amount shall apply to or limit Seller’s liability (i) under Section 5.9 above, Section 6.2 above, Section 6.4 above, and Section 10.9 below or (ii) for fraud.

8.1    Seller’s Default. If this transaction fails to close as a result of Seller’s default, and such default is not cured by Seller within five (5) business days after receipt of written notice from Purchaser specifying the nature of the default, then Purchaser, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, may elect to:

(i) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of Purchaser's election to terminate to Seller and Escrow Holder, in which event the Earnest Money (and all interest thereon) shall be returned immediately to Purchaser and Seller shall promptly reimburse Purchaser for its actual reasonable third party out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, but, not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) up to Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) and neither party shall have any rights, duties or obligations hereunder other than the obligations and rights set forth herein that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement; or

(ii) complete the purchase of the Property, in which event Purchaser waives its right to seek reimbursement from Seller for all of its damages incurred as a result of Seller’s breach hereunder; or

(iii) waive any claim for damages (other than pursuant to Section 10.9 below) and file an action (the "Specific Performance Action") for specific performance of this Agreement to compel Seller to close. Seller expressly waives its right to demand that Purchaser post a bond to proceed with the Specific Performance Action.

With respect to any post-Closing breach of any obligation under this Agreement that expressly survives Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled to pursue all remedies available at law and in equity other than a claim for consequential, punitive or incidental damages, subject to the limitations imposed in Section 7.3 and Section 7.5 of this Agreement.

8.2    Purchaser’s Default. In the event Purchaser breaches its obligation to purchase the Property pursuant to this Agreement, then (in accordance with, but subject to, Section 9.4 below) Seller’s sole remedy in (i.e., with respect to) such event shall be to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages, Seller waiving all other rights or remedies in the event of (i.e., in connection with) such breach by Purchaser. The parties acknowledge that Seller’s actual damages in the event of Purchaser’s breach of its obligation to purchase the Property under this Agreement will be difficult to ascertain, and that such liquidated damages represent the parties’ best estimate of such damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any right of Seller to liquidated damages shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any indemnity obligation, liability or duty of Purchaser and such other obligations, liabilities and duties as are provided and/or referenced in Section 9.4. In the event of a default by Purchaser which does not result in a failure to close, Seller shall, subject to the terms of Section 7.3, have all rights and remedies provided by this Agreement as well as those provided by law and equity.

8.3    Other Expenses. If this Agreement is terminated due to the default of a party, then the defaulting party shall pay or reimburse the other party, as appropriate, for any fees or charges due to the Escrow Holder for holding the Earnest Money as well as any escrow cancellation or termination fees or charges and any fees or charges due to the Title Company for preparation, termination and/or cancellation of the Title Commitment. Each party’s obligations, liabilities and duties pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Additionally, any obligation, liability or duty of Purchaser under this Section 8.3 shall be in addition to Purchaser’s obligations, liabilities and duties as set forth in Section 8.2 and Section 9.4.

9.1    Investment and Use of Funds. Escrow Holder shall invest the Earnest Money in a federally insured interest-bearing account or accounts satisfactory to Purchaser (as provided in Section 1.3 above), shall not commingle the Earnest Money with any funds of Escrow Holder or others, and shall promptly provide Purchaser and Seller with confirmation of the investments made. If the Closing under this Agreement occurs, and the Earnest Money (or any portion of it) has not previously been released to Seller, Escrow Holder shall deliver the Earnest Money (or any portion of it) to Seller on the Closing Date.

9.2    Termination Before Expiration of Due Diligence Period. If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period pursuant to Subsection 2.2.1, Escrow Holder shall pay the entire Earnest Money (including interest earned thereon) to Purchaser without further authorization from Seller and this Agreement shall thereupon terminate. No notice to Escrow Holder from Seller shall be required for the release of the Earnest Money to Purchaser by Escrow Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

9.3    After Expiration of Due Diligence Period. After expiration of the Due Diligence Period (and except as provided in Subsection 2.2.1, Section 2.3, Section 3.2, Section 4.2, Section 4.3, Section 7.3, Section 8.1, Section 8.2, and Section 9.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement), Escrow Holder shall retain the Earnest Money until it receives written instructions executed by both Seller and Purchaser as to the disposition and disbursement of the Earnest Money, or until ordered by final court order, decree or judgment, which is not subject to appeal, to deliver the Earnest Money to a particular party(ies), in which event the Earnest Money shall be delivered in accordance with such notice, instruction, order, decree or judgment. Section 9.4 shall be considered Seller’s and Purchaser’s executed written instructions to Escrow Holder with respect to the matters set forth therein.

9.4    LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. PURCHASER AND SELLER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT: (I) IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM PURCHASER’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH DAMAGES WOULD INCLUDE, BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO, SELLER’S LOST SALE OPPORTUNITIES DURING THE PERIOD THAT THE PROPERTY IS TAKEN OFF THE MARKET; AND (II), TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ALL OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING ON THE EFFECTIVE DATE, THE EARNEST MONEY IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN SUCH EVENT. CONSEQUENTLY, IN THE EVENT PURCHASER BREACHES ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY SHALL BE TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND TO RECEIVE (ANY PORTION OF THE EARNEST MONEY NOT PREVIOUSLY RELEASED TO SELLER) AND RETAIN THE (ENTIRE) EARNEST MONEY; PURCHASER SHALL MAKE, GIVE, JOIN IN, EXECUTE AND/OR DELIVER TO ESCROW HOLDER ANY INSTRUMENT REQUIRED IN THIS REGARD. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS (AND ANY OTHER SIMILAR PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT) SHALL, HOWEVER, IN NO WAY LIMIT (A) PURCHASER’S INDEMNITY AND/OR RELATED OR SIMILAR OBLIGATIONS, LIABILITIES OR DUTIES (E.G., PURCHASER’S OBLIGATION, LIABILITY AND DUTY TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND/OR HOLD HARMLESS AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 2.2, SECTION 6.4 AND/OR ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT), (B) ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY OR DUTY OF PURCHASER TO RETURN, DELIVER, ASSIGN, TRANSFER OR MAKE AVAILABLE TO SELLER DOCUMENTS, LICENSES, PERMITS, RESULTS OF DUE DILIGENCE OR OTHER INVESTIGATIONS AND THE LIKE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE PROPERTY INFORMATION AND THE REPORTS, (C) SECTION 8.3 OR (D) SECTION 10.9, AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT ((A), (B), (C) AND (D), COLLECTIVELY, THE “OTHER OBLIGATIONS”), IT BEING THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF THE PARTIES THAT THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVIDED HEREIN SHALL APPLY TO PURCHASER’S FAILURE TO CLOSE, BUT SHALL NOT LIMIT THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS, LIABILITIES AND DUTIES OF PURCHASER SET FORTH AND/OR REFERENCED HEREINABOVE. SELLER AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE 9 AND BY THEIR INITIALS IMMEDIATELY BELOW AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS:

9.5    Interpleader. Seller and Purchaser agree that, in the event of any controversy regarding the Earnest Money, unless mutual written instructions are received by Escrow Holder directing the Earnest Money’s disposition, Escrow Holder shall not take any action, but instead shall await the disposition of any proceeding relating to the Earnest Money or, at Escrow Holder’s option, Escrow Holder may interplead all parties and deposit the Earnest Money with a court of competent jurisdiction (in the county in which the Real Property is located) in which event Escrow Holder may recover all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Seller or Purchaser, whichever loses in any such interpleader action, shall be solely obligated to pay such costs and fees of Escrow Holder, as well as the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. Each party’s obligations, liabilities and duties under this Section 9.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.6    Liability of Escrow Holder. The parties acknowledge that Escrow Holder is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that Escrow Holder shall not be deemed to be the agent of either Purchaser or Seller, and that Escrow Holder shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or Purchaser resulting from Escrow Holder’s mistake of law respecting Escrow Holder’s scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold Escrow Holder harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Holder’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by Escrow Holder in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of Escrow Holder.

10.1    Purchaser Bound. Purchaser shall not be entitled to assign its rights in, to and under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall be entitled to assign its rights in, to and under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Purchaser, Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT, Inc. (“Griffin REIT I”), Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT II, Inc. (“Griffin REIT II”), and/or any entity wholly owned by either Griffin REIT I or Griffin REIT II; in each case without the prior written consent of Seller; provided however (a) no such assignment shall be effective or binding on Seller until written notice thereof has been delivered to Seller, (b) the assignee executed and delivers an assignment and assumption agreement in which such assignee assumes all of Purchaser’s rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, (c) such assignment will not release Purchaser from its primary obligation for the payment and performance of all obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement and (d) Affiliate confirming (in writing) to Seller, on behalf of Affiliate (as if Affiliate is Purchaser), Purchaser’s representations and warranties as set forth in Section 6.4 and Section 7.2. For purposes of this Section 10.1, the term “Affiliate” means (i) an entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Purchaser or (ii) an entity at least a majority of whose economic interest is directly or indirectly owned by Purchaser; and the term “control” means the power to direct the management of such entity through voting rights, ownership or contractual obligations.

10.3    Invalidity and Waiver. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or inoperative, then, so far as is reasonable and possible, the remainder of this Agreement shall be deemed valid and operative, and, to the greatest extent legally possible, effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative. 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.

10.4    Governing Law. This Agreement shall, in all respects, be governed, construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the law of the State in which the Real Property is located (i.e., Arizona).

10.5    Survival. Subject to the limitations set forth in and except as otherwise specifically provided by this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement that contemplate performance after the Closing (and, if no specific survival period is expressly set forth herein, the covenants, agreements, indemnities, representations, warranties and other undertakings of Seller shall survive the Closing for only the period during which Seller’s representations and warranties survive the Closing in accordance with Section 7.3 above) and the obligations of the parties not fully performed at the Closing shall survive the Closing and shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of Closing.

10.6    Entirety and Amendments. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the Property. This Agreement may be amended or supplemented only by an instrument in writing executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

10.7    Time. Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement.

10.8    Confidentiality. Purchaser shall, at all times, comply with the confidentiality obligations imposed in the Leases. In addition, Purchaser and Seller (as applicable) shall make no public announcement or disclosure of (i) any information related to this Agreement, including without limitation the Property Information, the Reports and the results of Purchaser’s due diligence examinations, inspections and investigations, as well as the identity of Seller (or Seller’s managers, members or affiliates, including without limitation, Seller’s real estate investment advisor; i.e., Asset Manager) or (ii) the amount of the Purchase Price, to outside brokers, third parties or the public, before or after the Closing and whether or not the Closing occurs, without the prior written specific consent of the other party; provided, however, that Purchaser may make disclosure of this Agreement to the Permitted Parties (as defined below) to the extent necessary to perform Purchaser’s obligations and due diligence tests and studies hereunder and either party may make such disclosure as may be required under laws or regulations (including, without limitation, any rules or regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission) applicable to the relevant Permitted Party. Purchaser shall be responsible for advising each Permitted Party of the confidential nature of all information related to this Agreement and each of the provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser shall cause each Permitted Party to hold and treat all information related to this Agreement and each of the provisions of this Agreement strictly confidential and otherwise in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Purchaser. “Permitted Parties” is defined as Purchaser’s lenders, attorneys, accountants, consultants, contractors, brokers, investors, creditors, officers, employees and agents; and each of such Permitted Parties is a “Permitted Party.” Purchaser’s and Seller’s obligations, liabilities and duties under this Section 10.8 shall survive the Closing as well as any termination of this Agreement.

10.9    Attorneys’ and Other Fees. Should either party institute any action or proceeding to enforce or interpret this Agreement or any provision hereof, for damages by reason of any alleged breach of this Agreement or any provision hereof, or for a declaration of rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action or proceeding shall be entitled to receive from the other party all costs and expenses, including actual attorneys’ and other fees, reasonably incurred in good faith by the prevailing party in connection with such action or proceeding.

Any such notices shall be either (i) sent by overnight delivery using a nationally recognized overnight courier, in which case notice shall be deemed delivered upon receipt or rejection of delivery, (ii) sent by United States Mail, certified with return receipt requested, in which case notice shall be deemed delivered upon receipt or rejection of delivery, or (iii) sent by facsimile or electronic mail, in which case, within one (1) business day thereof, a courtesy copy notice shall be sent in the manner provided in provision (i) or provision (ii) of this Section 10.10, and such notice shall be deemed delivered to the extent such facsimile or electronic mail is delivered during regular business hours (i.e., between (9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time) on a regular business day (i.e., Monday through Friday, inclusive, but excluding holidays) or at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time on the next regular business day to the extent such facsimile or electronic mail is delivered (a) after regular business hours on a regular business day or (b) on a day other than a regular business day. 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 (or refusal of acceptance of delivery) of such notice. Copies (including any courtesy copies provided for in provision (iii) of this Section 10.10) of notices are for informational purposes only, and a failure to give or receive copies of any notice shall not be deemed a failure to give notice. Notices given by Purchaser’s counsel shall be deemed given by Purchaser and notices given by Seller’s counsel shall be deemed given by Seller.

10.11    Construction.

10.11.1    The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties and/or their counsel have reviewed, negotiated 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.

10.11.2    If any words or phrases in this Agreement shall have been stricken out or otherwise eliminated, whether or not any other words or phrases have been added, this Agreement shall be construed as if the words or phrases so stricken out or otherwise eliminated were never included in this Agreement and no implication or reference shall be drawn from the fact that said words or phrases were so stricken out or otherwise eliminated.

10.12    Calculation of Time Periods. 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 a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday for national banks in the State of New York, in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday.

No obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, the property of any of Purchaser’s or Seller’s limited partners, managers, members, trustees, officers, directors, employees, shareholders, representatives or agents (including, without limitation, Asset Manager and Property Manager), regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise. In addition, no party shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages of any nature or kind resulting from or in connection with this Agreement.

The parties’ obligations, liabilities and duties under this Section 10.16 shall survive the Closing.

10.17    No Reliance on Documents or Statements. Except as expressly stated herein, Seller makes no representation or warranty as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any materials, data or information delivered by Seller to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all materials, data and information delivered by Seller to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby are provided to Purchaser as a convenience only and that any reliance on or use of such materials, data or information by Purchaser shall be at the sole risk of Purchaser, except as otherwise expressly stated herein.

Purchaser may consummate the purchase of the Property as part of a so-called “like kind” exchange (“Exchange”) pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), provided that: (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of the Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) Purchaser shall effect the Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a qualified intermediary and otherwise in complete compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; (iii) Seller shall not be required to take an assignment of the purchase agreement for the relinquished property or be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating the Exchange; and (iv) Purchaser shall pay any and all additional costs and/or expenses that would not otherwise have been incurred by Purchaser or Seller had Purchaser not consummated its purchase through the Exchange, including without limitation actual attorneys’ fees (such as, for example, but not by way of limitation, actual attorneys’ fees incurred by Seller in having its counsel review any document or instrument related to the Exchange, whether or not Purchaser requests that Seller execute the same).
