(d)    The addresses for Seller and Purchaser are as set forth in Section 14.1 hereof, and the real estate subject to the transfer provided for in this Agreement is described in Exhibit A.

Section 5.1    Entry and Inspection.

(a)    During the term of this Agreement, Purchaser and its agents, representatives, contractors and consultants shall have the right to inspect and investigate

the Property and conduct such tests, evaluations and assessments of the Property as Purchaser deems reasonably necessary, appropriate or prudent in connection with Purchaser’s acquisition of the Property and the consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that no invasive testing or sampling shall be conducted by Purchaser or any Licensee Party upon the Real Property or Improvements without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld, delayed or conditioned in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1 and subject to the obligations set forth in Section 5.3 below, Seller will permit Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives (collectively, the “Licensee Parties”) the right to enter upon the Real Property and Improvements at all reasonable times, during normal business hours, to perform inspections of the Property and communicate with Tenants and service providers; provided, however, Purchaser shall not have the right to communicate with Tenants unless interviews and communications are coordinated through Seller, Seller shall have the right to participate in any such communications, and Purchaser shall comply with the notice requirements of the applicable Tenant Lease. Purchaser will provide to Seller written notice of the intention of Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties to enter the Real Property or Improvements at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to such intended entry and specify the intended purpose therefor and the inspections and examinations contemplated to be made. At Seller’s option, Seller may be present for any such entry, inspection and communication with any Tenants and service providers with respect to the Property. Purchaser shall have the right to conduct a Phase I Environmental Assessment to the extent the same is to be completed by a reputable, bonded and insured consultant licensed in the state in which the Property is located carrying the insurance required under Section 5.3 below. If Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties undertake any borings or other disturbances of the soil, the soil shall be recompacted to its condition as existed immediately before any such borings or other disturbances were undertaken. If Purchaser or any Licensee Party takes any sample from the Real Property in connection with any testing, Purchaser shall, upon the request of Seller, provide to Seller a portion of such sample being tested to allow Seller, if it so chooses, to perform its own testing.

(b)    Subject to the obligations set forth in Section 5.3 below, the Licensee Parties shall have the right to communicate directly with the Authorities for any good-faith reasonable purpose in connection with this transaction contemplated by this Agreement (so long as such communications can be conducted without disclosing that a sale of the Property is contemplated); provided, however, Purchaser, except with respect to routine requests for information and associated follow-up communication, shall provide Seller at least twenty-four (24) hours prior written notice of Purchaser’s intention to communicate with any Authorities and Seller shall have the right to participate in any such communications.

Section 5.2    Document Review.

(a)    Seller shall make available, either via electronic virtual data room, by delivery of materials to Purchaser’s representatives, by access to the Broker’s data room, or by being made available at the office of Seller’s property manager, the following, to the extent in Seller’s possession or control, to Purchaser and its authorized agents or

Purchaser acknowledges that it has received copies of all the Tenant Leases listed on Exhibit F and the Service Contracts listed on Exhibit B. “Documents” shall not include (and Seller shall have no obligation to provide materials requested by Purchaser that constitute) (1) any document or correspondence which would be subject to the attorney-client privilege or covered by the attorney work product doctrine; (2) any document or item which Seller is contractually or otherwise bound to keep confidential; (3) any documents pertaining to the marketing of the Property for sale to prospective purchasers; (4) any internal memoranda, reports or assessments of Seller or Seller’s Affiliates relating to Seller’s valuation of the Property; (5) any appraisals of the Property, whether prepared internally by Seller or Seller’s Affiliates or externally; (6) any documents or items which Seller considers proprietary (such as Seller’s or its property manager’s operation manuals, software programs or other electronic media or services that are subject to licenses or other agreements that are personal to Seller or Seller’s property manager); (7) organizational, financial and other documents relating to Seller or Seller’s Affiliates (other than evidence of due authorization and organization as may be required under this Agreement); (8) any materials projecting or relating to the future performance of the Property; or (9) any documents pertaining to the Reserved Company Assets.

(b)    Purchaser acknowledges that any and all of the Documents may be proprietary and confidential in nature (to the extent such Documents do not contain information (i) known by Purchaser or the Permitted Outside Parties prior to the receipt thereof, or (ii) generally known or available to the public other than through the action or inaction of Purchaser or the Permitted Outside Parties) and shall be made available to Purchaser solely to assist Purchaser in determining the feasibility of purchasing the Property (including, without limitation, the financing of such purchase). Purchaser agrees not to disclose the contents of the Documents, or any of the provisions, terms or conditions contained therein, to any party outside of Purchaser’s organization other than its attorneys, partners, members, accountants, consultants, contractors, representatives, employees, advisors, potential lenders or potential investors (collectively, for purposes of this Section 5.2(b), the “Permitted Outside Parties”). Purchaser further agrees that within its organization, or as to Permitted Outside Parties, the Documents will be disclosed and exhibited only (A) to those Permitted Outside Parties who need to know such information in order to advise Purchaser in connection with the feasibility of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Property (including, without limitation, the financing of such acquisition), and (B) to the extent required by court or legal requirements, or to enforce or defend any claim hereunder. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Documents and other information relating to the leasing arrangements between Seller and the Tenants or prospective tenants are proprietary and confidential in nature. Purchaser agrees not to divulge the contents of

such Documents and other information except in strict accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in Article XII and this Section 5.2. In permitting Purchaser and the Permitted Outside Parties to review the Documents or information to assist Purchaser, 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 by Seller and any such claims are expressly rejected by Seller and waived by Purchaser and the Permitted Outside Parties, for whom, by its execution of this Agreement, Purchaser is acting as an agent with regard to such waiver. Purchaser shall be responsible for any breaches of confidentiality under this Agreement by any of the Permitted Outside Parties.

(c)    Purchaser shall promptly destroy all copies Purchaser has made (and computer files of same) of any Documents containing confidential information before or after the execution of this Agreement, not later than ten (10) Business Days following the time this Agreement is terminated for any reason. Purchaser, however, may retain Documents if required by its document retention policies or if required in connection with any claim or potential claim under this Agreement.

(d)    Purchaser acknowledges that some of the Documents may have been prepared by third parties and may have been prepared prior to Seller’s ownership of the Property. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Seller has not made and does not make any representation or warranty regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Documents or the sources thereof (whether prepared by Seller, Seller’s Affiliates or any other person or entity). Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Documents and is providing the Documents solely as an accommodation to Purchaser.

(e)    For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.2 shall expire and be of no further force or effect from and after Closing.

Section 5.3    Entry and Inspection Obligations.

(a)    Purchaser agrees that in entering upon and inspecting or examining the Property and communicating with any Tenants, Purchaser and the other Licensee Parties will not disturb the Tenants or interfere with their use of the Property pursuant to their respective Tenant Leases; interfere with the operation and maintenance of the Property; damage any part of the Property or any personal property owned or held by any Tenant or any other person or entity; injure or otherwise cause bodily harm to Seller or any Tenant, or to any of their respective agents, guests, invitees, contractors and employees, or to any other person or entity; permit any liens to attach to the Property by reason of the exercise of Purchaser’s rights under this Article V; communicate with the Tenants or service providers except in accordance with this Article V; or reveal or disclose any information obtained concerning the Property and the Documents to anyone outside Purchaser’s organization and the Permitted Outside Parties, and only in accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in Section 5.2(b). Purchaser will (i) maintain and cause those entering the Property to maintain commercial general liability (occurrence) insurance in an amount not less than

Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) and on terms (including coverage for an “insured contract” with respect to the indemnity in Section 5.3(b)) satisfactory to Seller covering any accident arising in connection with the presence or activities of Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties on the Property, and deliver to Seller a certificate of insurance verifying such coverage and Seller and its property manager (Hines Interests Limited Partnership) being named as an additional insured on such coverage prior to entry upon the Property; (ii) promptly pay when due the costs of all inspections, entries, samplings and tests conducted by Purchaser and/or any Licensee Parties and examinations done with regard to the Property; and (iii) promptly restore the Property to its condition as existed immediately prior to any such inspection, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings and tests, but in no event later than ten (10) days after the damage occurs. Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed or construed as Seller’s consent to any further physical testing or sampling with respect to the Property after the Property Approval Period.

(b)    Purchaser hereby indemnifies, defends and holds Seller and all of its members, partners, agents, officers, directors, employees, successors, assigns and Affiliates harmless from and against any and all liens, claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities, demands, suits, and obligations, together with all losses, penalties, actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to any of the foregoing (including but not limited to court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any inspections, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings or tests conducted by Purchaser or any Licensee Party, whether prior to or after the date hereof, with respect to the Property or any violation of the provisions of Section 5.2 and/or this Section 5.3; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any claims, damages or other costs arising by virtue of the mere discovery of any pre-existing condition at the Property in connection with any inspections, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings or tests conducted by Purchaser or any Licensee Party, but only to the extent such parties do not exacerbate such pre-existing condition.

Section 5.4    Property Approval Period. Between the Effective Date and 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on the Contingency Date (the “Property Approval Period”), Purchaser shall have the right to review and investigate the Property and the items set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 above (collectively, the “Due Diligence Items”). Purchaser, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, may determine whether or not the Property is acceptable to Purchaser within the Property Approval Period. If Purchaser determines to proceed with the purchase of the Property in accordance with this Agreement, then Purchaser shall, prior to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on the Contingency Date, notify Seller in writing (an “Approval Notice”) that Purchaser has approved the matters described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 above, which determination shall be made by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion. If Purchaser fails to timely deliver an Approval Notice pursuant to the foregoing, this Agreement shall automatically terminate. Purchaser shall pay any cancellation fees or charges of the Title Company, and except for Termination Surviving Obligations, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations to one another under this Agreement.

Section 5.5    Sale “As Is”. THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER, THIS AGREEMENT REFLECTS THE MUTUAL AGREEMENT OF SELLER AND PURCHASER,

AND PURCHASER HAS CONDUCTED (OR WILL CONDUCT PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE PROPERTY APPROVAL PERIOD) ITS OWN INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION OF THE PROPERTY. OTHER THAN ANY SPECIFIC MATTERS REPRESENTED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, PURCHASER HAS NOT RELIED UPON AND WILL NOT RELY UPON, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF SELLER OR ANY OF SELLER’S AFFILIATES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES, AND PURCHASER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NO SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES HAVE BEEN MADE. SELLER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS, AND NEITHER SELLER NOR ANY OF SELLER’S AFFILIATES NOR ANY OTHER PERSON IS MAKING, ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR ASSURANCE WHATSOEVER TO PURCHASER AND, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE BY SELLER OR RELIED UPON BY PURCHASER WITH RESPECT TO THE STATUS OF TITLE TO THE REAL PROPERTY OR THE MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, CONDITION, DESIGN OR MARKETABILITY OF THE PROPERTY, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO (A) ANY IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, (B) ANY IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, (C) ANY IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF CONFORMITY TO MODELS OR SAMPLES OF MATERIALS, (D) ANY RIGHTS OF PURCHASER UNDER APPROPRIATE STATUTES TO CLAIM DIMINUTION OF CONSIDERATION, (E) ANY CLAIM BY PURCHASER FOR DAMAGES BECAUSE OF DEFECTS, WHETHER KNOWN, OR UNKNOWN, OR LATENT, WITH RESPECT TO THE REAL PROPERTY, IMPROVEMENTS OR THE PERSONAL PROPERTY, (F) THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PROSPECTS OF THE PROPERTY OR THE TENANTS AND (G) THE COMPLIANCE OR LACK THEREOF OF THE REAL PROPERTY OR THE IMPROVEMENTS WITH GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL LAWS AND REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS), IT BEING THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF SELLER AND PURCHASER THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROPERTY WILL BE CONVEYED AND TRANSFERRED TO PURCHASER IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION AND STATE OF REPAIR, “AS IS” AND “WHERE IS”, WITH ALL FAULTS. Purchaser represents that it is a knowledgeable, experienced and sophisticated purchaser of real estate, and that it is relying solely on its own expertise and that of Purchaser’s consultants in purchasing the Property. In addition, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement, it is not acting (including, as applicable, by entering into this Agreement or consummating the Sale) in reliance on: (i) any representation or warranty, express or implied; (ii) any estimate, projection, prediction, data, financial information, memorandum, presentation or other materials or information provided or addressed to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, including any materials or information made available in the electronic data room hosted by or on behalf of Seller in connection with the Sale, in connection with presentations by Seller or in any other forum or setting; or (iii) the accuracy or completeness of any other representation, warranty, estimate, projection, prediction, data, financial information, memorandum, presentation or other materials or information. Purchaser

has conducted, and will conduct, such inspections, investigations and other independent examinations of the Property and related matters as Purchaser deems necessary, including but not limited to the physical and environmental conditions thereof, and will rely upon same and not upon any statements of Seller (excluding the limited specific matters represented by Seller in this Agreement or the documents entered into pursuant to this Agreement) or of any Affiliate, officer, director, employee, agent or attorney of Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that all information obtained by Purchaser was obtained from a variety of sources and, except as set forth in this Agreement, Seller will not be deemed to have represented or warranted the completeness, truth or accuracy of any of the Documents or other such information heretofore or hereafter furnished to Purchaser. Upon Closing, Purchaser will assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, adverse physical and environmental conditions, may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s inspections and investigations. Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable Environmental Laws relating to past, present and future environmental health conditions on, or resulting from the ownership or operation of, the Property. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller will sell and convey to Purchaser, and Purchaser will accept the Property, “AS IS, WHERE IS,” with all faults. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that there are no oral agreements, warranties or representations, collateral to or affecting the Property, by Seller, any Affiliate of Seller, any agent of Seller or any third party. Seller is not liable or bound in any manner by any oral or written statements, representations or information pertaining to the Property furnished by any real estate broker, agent, employee, servant or other person, unless the same are specifically set forth or referred to herein. Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchase Price reflects the “AS IS, WHERE IS” nature of this sale and any faults, liabilities, defects or other adverse matters that may be associated with the Property. Purchaser, with Purchaser’s counsel, has fully reviewed the disclaimers and waivers set forth in this Agreement, and understands the significance and effect thereof. 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 in this Agreement.

Section 5.6    Purchaser’s Release of Seller.

(a)    Seller Released From Liability. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its partners, members, officers, directors, agents, controlling persons and Affiliates, hereby releases Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and their respective partners, members, owners, officers, directors, agents, representatives and controlling persons (collectively, the “Seller Released Parties”) from any and all liability, responsibility, penalties, fines, suits, demands, actions, losses, damages, expenses, causes of action, proceedings, judgments, executions, costs of any kind or nature whatsoever and claims (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of or related to any matter or any nature relating to the Property or its condition (including, without limitation, the presence in the soil, soil gas, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters, of any Hazardous Substances or any chemical, material or substance that may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and/or 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, any latent or patent construction defects, errors or omissions, compliance with law matters, any statutory or common law right Purchaser may have for property damage Claims, bodily injury Claims, contribution or cost recovery Claims or any other Claims under Environmental Laws and/or to receive disclosures from Seller, including, without limitation, any disclosures as to the Property’s location within areas designated as subject to flooding, fire, seismic or earthquake risks by any federal, state or local entity, the need to obtain flood insurance, the certification of water heater bracing and/or the advisability of obtaining title insurance, or any other condition or circumstance affecting the Property, its financial viability, use of operation, or any portion thereof), valuation, salability or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser specifically releases Seller and the Seller Released Parties from any claims Purchaser may have against Seller and/or the other Seller Released Parties now or in the future arising from the environmental condition of the Property or the presence of Hazardous Substances or contamination on or emanating from the Property, including any rights of contribution or indemnity.

(b)    Purchaser’s Waiver of Objections. Purchaser acknowledges that it has inspected the Property, observed its physical characteristics and existing conditions and had the opportunity to conduct such investigations and studies on and off said Property and adjacent areas as it deems or deemed necessary, and Purchaser hereby waives any and all objections to or complaints (including but not limited to actions based on federal, state or common law and any private right of action under CERCLA, RCRA or any other state and federal law to which the Property is or may be subject, including any rights of contribution or indemnity) against Seller, its Affiliates, or their respective officers, directors, partners, members, owners, employees or agents regarding physical characteristics and existing conditions, including without limitation structural and geologic conditions, subsurface soil and water conditions and solid and hazardous waste and Hazardous Substances on, under, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Property or related to prior uses of the Property.

(c)    Purchaser Assumes Risks of Change in Laws. Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future environmental, safety or health conditions on, or resulting from the ownership or operation of, the Property, and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and conditions, including without limitation the presence of Hazardous Substances or other substances, may not be revealed by its investigation.

(d)    Flood Hazard Zone. Purchaser acknowledges that if the Real Property is located in an area which the Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development has found to have special flood hazards, then pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Program, Purchaser will be required to purchase flood insurance in order to obtain a loan secured by the Real Property from a federally regulated financial institution or a loan

insured or guaranteed by an agency of the United States government. Seller shall have no responsibility to determine whether the Real Property is located in an area which is subject to the National Flood Insurance Program.

Section 6.1    Survey. On or prior to the Effective Date, Seller has delivered to Purchaser, at Seller’s cost, a copy of that certain survey dated September 25, 2019 and prepared by Merrimack Engineering Services, Inc. with respect to the Real Property (the “Survey”). Seller shall have no obligation to obtain any modification, update, or recertification of the Survey. Any such modification, update or recertification of the Survey may be obtained by Purchaser at its sole cost and expense (the “Updated Survey”).

Section 6.2    Title and Survey Review.

(a)    Prior to the Effective Date, Purchaser has caused the Title Company to furnish or otherwise make available to Purchaser a preliminary title commitment for the Real Property dated with an effective date of September 4, 2019 (the “PTR”), and copies of all underlying title documents described in the PTR. Purchaser has unconditionally approved of the condition of title to the Property and the Survey, subject to Seller’s obligations set forth in Section 6.2(c) below. Except as expressly provided in Section 6.2(c) of this Agreement, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to expend or agree to expend any funds, to undertake or agree to undertake any obligations, or otherwise to cure or agree to cure any title matters. Purchaser may subsequently object to title matters in accordance with Section 6.2(b) below, and in no event shall Purchaser ever be deemed to waive any Must-Cure Matters.

(b)    After the Contingency Date and prior to Closing, Purchaser may notify Seller in writing of any objections to title or survey matters (i) (x) raised by the Title Company between the Contingency Date and the Closing and which were not disclosed in writing by the Title Company to Purchaser prior to the Contingency Date, or (y) which appear on the Updated Survey but which were not included on the Survey; (ii) not disclosed in writing by Seller to Purchaser and the Title Company prior to the Contingency Date; and (iii) that constitute Material Title Matters (“New Exceptions”); provided that Purchaser must notify Seller of any objection to any such New Exception within three (3) Business Days after being made aware of the existence of such New Exception. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller a notice of objections on or before such date, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any objection to the New Exceptions, and the New Exceptions will be included as Permitted Exceptions. Seller will have two (2) Business Days from the receipt of Purchaser’s notice (and, if necessary, Seller may extend the Closing Date to provide for such two (2) Business Day period and for two (2) Business Days following such period for Purchaser’s response), within which time Seller may, but is under no obligation to, remove or otherwise obtain affirmative insurance over the objectionable New Exceptions, or commit to remove or otherwise obtain affirmative insurance over the same at or prior to Closing. If, within the two (2) Business Day period, Seller does not remove or otherwise obtain

affirmative insurance over the objectionable New Exceptions, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement upon delivering a notice to Seller terminating this Agreement on or before the date two (2) Business Days following expiration of the two (2) Business Day cure period, in which case Purchaser shall be entitled to return of the Earnest Money Deposit. If Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement in the manner set forth above, the New Exceptions (except those Seller has removed or otherwise affirmatively insured over, or committed to do the same as set forth above) will be included as Permitted Exceptions. If this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2(b), then neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except for the Termination Surviving Obligations) and the Independent Consideration shall be paid to Seller.

(c)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.2 to the contrary, Seller will be obligated to cure (or cause deletion from the Title Policy or provide affirmative title insurance over) exceptions to title to the Property listed on Exhibit K attached hereto (collectively, the “Must-Cure Matters”).

Section 6.3    Title Insurance. It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close that the Title Company issue to Purchaser an ALTA extended coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (issued on ALTA form dated 6/17/06) (the “Title Policy”) for the Property with liability in the amount of the Purchase Price, showing title to the Property vested in Purchaser, with such endorsements as Purchaser shall request and the Title Company shall have agreed to issue prior to the Contingency Date, subject only to: (i) the pre-printed standard exceptions in the Title Policy, (ii) exceptions approved or deemed approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2 above, (iii) the Tenant Leases, (iv) any taxes and assessments for the year of Closing and for any other year if not yet due and payable as of the Closing, (v) any liens or claims of liens for work, service, labor or materials performed or supplied by, for or on behalf of any Tenant, (vi) all matters shown on the Survey, or any updates thereto, (vii) any matters which have been removed or affirmatively insured over, and (viii) any exceptions arising from Purchaser’s actions (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”). It is understood that Purchaser may request any number of endorsements to the Title Policy, but the issuance of any such endorsements shall not be a condition to Closing.

Section 7.1    Interim Operating Covenants. Seller covenants to Purchaser that during the Interim Period, Seller will:

(a)    Operations. Continue to operate, manage and maintain the Improvements in the ordinary course of Seller’s business and substantially in accordance with Seller’s present practice, subject to ordinary wear and tear and Article IX.

(b)    Maintain Insurance. Maintain its current insurance or insurance equivalent on the Improvements which is at least equivalent in all material respects to Seller’s insurance policies covering the Improvements as of the Effective Date.

(c)    Personal Property. Not transfer or remove any Personal Property from the Improvements except for the purpose of repair or replacement thereof. Any items of Personal Property replaced after the Effective Date will be installed prior to Closing and will be of substantially similar quality of the item of Personal Property being replaced.

(d)    Leases. Not enter into any new lease or any amendments, expansions or renewals of Tenant Leases, or terminate any Tenant Lease, or grant any material consent or waiver thereunder which Seller has the right to withhold, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent will (i) not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned prior to the Contingency Date, and (ii) be in Purchaser’s sole discretion on and after the Contingency Date. Furthermore, nothing herein shall be deemed to require Purchaser’s consent to any expansion or renewal of a Tenant Lease which Seller, as landlord, is required to honor pursuant to any Tenant Lease.

(e)    Service Contracts. Not enter into, or renew the term of, any service contract, unless such service contract is terminable on thirty (30) days (or less) prior notice without penalty or unless Purchaser consents thereto in writing, which approval will (i) not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned prior to the Contingency Date, and (ii) be in Purchaser’s sole discretion on and after the Contingency Date.

(f)    Notices. To the extent received by Seller, promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of written default notices, notices of lawsuits and notices of violations of Governmental Regulations affecting the Property.

(g)    Encumbrances. Without Purchaser’s prior approval in its sole discretion, not voluntarily subject the Property to any additional liens, encumbrances, covenants or easements, which would not constitute Permitted Exceptions, unless released prior to Closing.

(h)    Reliance Letter. Use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a reliance letter in favor of Purchaser with respect to Seller’s property condition report for the Property from 2018, duly executed by the entity responsible for authoring such property condition report.

(i)    Data Room Updates. Provide notice by email to (i) ***@***, (ii) ***@***, (iii) ***@***, and (iv) ***@*** promptly following the upload of any additional materials to the Broker’s data room.

Whenever in this Section 7.1 Seller is required to obtain Purchaser’s approval with respect to any transaction described therein, Purchaser shall, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of Seller’s request therefor, notify Seller of its approval or disapproval of same and, if Purchaser fails to notify Seller of its approval within said three (3) Business Day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved same.

Section 7.2    Tenant Lease Estoppels.

(a)    It will be a condition to Closing that Seller obtain and deliver to Purchaser, from each of the major tenants leasing space in the Improvements listed on Exhibit C-1 (the “Major Tenants”) and from such other Tenants leasing space at the Improvements, which when added to the Major Tenants, aggregates eighty percent (80%) of the rentable square footage leased at the Improvements, executed Acceptable Estoppel Certificates. “Acceptable Estoppel Certificates” are estoppel certificates in substantially the form of the estoppel certificate attached hereto as Exhibit C-2, which shall not contain any material modifications or inconsistencies with respect to the information set forth on Exhibit F-2, Exhibit G-1 and Exhibit G-2, the rent roll and the Tenant Leases, and which shall not disclose any alleged material default or unfulfilled material obligation on the part of the landlord; provided that an estoppel certificate executed by a Major Tenant in the form prescribed by its Tenant Lease shall constitute an Acceptable Estoppel Certificate if it is otherwise consistent with this Section 7.2 and the factual information contained in the estoppels distributed to such Major Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.2. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller’s failure to obtain the Acceptable Estoppel Certificates in accordance with this Section 7.2 shall not constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement; provided that Seller use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Acceptable Estoppel Certificates. Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy for a failure to obtain the Acceptable Estoppel Certificates shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money Deposit. Prior to delivery of the forms of estoppel certificates to the Major Tenants, Seller will deliver to Purchaser completed forms of estoppel certificates, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2 or such forms as required by the applicable Tenant Lease and containing the information contemplated thereby. Within three (3) Business Days following Purchaser’s receipt thereof, Purchaser will send to Seller notice either (i) approving such forms as completed by Seller or (ii) setting forth in detail all changes to such forms which Purchaser reasonably believes to be appropriate to make the completed forms of estoppel certificates accurate and complete. Seller will make such changes to the extent Seller agrees such changes are appropriate, except that Seller will not be obligated to make any changes which request more expansive information than is contemplated by Exhibit C-2 or the form required by the applicable Tenant Lease (but for the avoidance of confusion, Purchaser shall have the right to require changes to the information contained in the estoppel certificates to resolve ambiguities in the Tenant Leases or Seller’s data relating to the same). Purchaser’s failure to respond within such three (3) Business Day period shall be deemed approval of such estoppel certificate.

(b)    If estoppel certificates for all Major Tenants and Tenants comprising at least 60% but less than 80% of the rentable area of the Improvements (inclusive of Major Tenants) are not obtained, Seller, at its sole option, may elect to deliver to Purchaser at Closing a representation certificate of Seller in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-3 (a “Seller Certificate”) for such Tenants as is necessary to enable the requirements of Section 7.2(a) to be satisfied. If Seller subsequently obtains an estoppel certificate meeting the requirements of Section 7.2(a) hereof from a Tenant for which Seller has delivered a Seller

Certificate, the delivered Seller Certificate for such Tenant will be null and void, and Purchaser will accept such estoppel certificate in its place.

Section 7.3    OFAC. Pursuant to United States Presidential Executive Order 13224 (“Executive Order”), Seller is required to ensure that it does not transact business with persons or entities determined to have committed, or to pose a risk of committing or supporting, terrorist acts and those persons (i) described in Section 1 of the Executive Order or (ii) listed in the “Alphabetical Listing of Blocked Persons, Specially Designated Nationals, Specially Designated Terrorists, Specially Designated Global Terrorists, Foreign Terrorist Organizations, and Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers” published by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), 31 C.F.R. Chapter V, Appendix A, as in effect from time to time (as to (i) and (ii), a “Blocked Person”).

Section 9.4    Prorations.

(a)    Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Time”), the following (collectively, the “Proration Items”): (i) real estate and personal property taxes and assessments for the year in which Closing occurs, (ii) utility bills (except as hereinafter provided), (iii) collected Rentals (subject to the terms of (b) below), and (iv) operating expenses payable by the owner of the Property (on the basis of a 366-day year, actual days elapsed). Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Closing Time, and Purchaser will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Closing Time. Such preliminary estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by the Title Company and submitted to Seller and Purchaser for each party’s approval at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement, once agreed upon, shall be signed by Purchaser and Seller and delivered to the Title Company for purposes of making the preliminary proration adjustment at Closing subject to the final cash settlement provided for below. The preliminary proration shall be paid at Closing by Purchaser to Seller (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Purchaser in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Time, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Purchaser. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums (except to the extent covered by the proration of Operating Expense Recoveries), and Seller’s insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Time, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills (except to the extent covered by the proration of Operating Expense Recoveries). Seller will be entitled to all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Purchaser will be obligated to make its own arrangements for deposits with the utility providers. A final reconciliation of Proration Items shall be made by Purchaser and Seller on or before June 30, 2020 (herein, the “Final Proration Date”). The provisions of this Section 10.4 will survive the Closing until the Final Proration Date, and in the event any items subject to proration hereunder are discovered prior to the Final Proration Date, the same shall be promptly prorated by the parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.4.

(b)    Purchaser will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Closing Time) of all Rentals previously paid to and collected by Seller and attributable to any period following the Closing Time. After the Closing, Seller,

promptly and on a rolling basis, will cause to be paid or turned over to Purchaser all Rentals, if any, received by Seller after Closing and properly attributable to any period following the Closing Time. “Rentals” includes fixed monthly rentals, parking rentals and charges, additional rentals, percentage rentals, escalation rentals (which include such Tenant’s proportionate share of building operation and maintenance costs and expenses as provided for under the applicable Tenant Lease, to the extent the same exceeds any expense stop specified in such Tenant Lease), retroactive rentals, administrative charges, utility charges, tenant or real property association dues, storage rentals, special event proceeds, temporary rents, telephone receipts, locker rentals, vending machine receipts and other sums and charges payable to Seller under the Tenant Lease or from other occupants or users of the Property, excluding specific tenant billings which are governed by Section 10.4(d). Rentals are “Delinquent” if they were due prior to the Closing Time and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Closing Time. Delinquent Rentals will not be prorated. Until the end of the Survival Period, Purchaser agrees to use good faith collection procedures with respect to the collection of any Delinquent Rentals, but Purchaser will have no liability for the failure to collect any such amounts and will not be required to conduct lock-outs or take any other legal action to enforce collection of any such amounts owed to Seller by Tenants of the Property. With respect to any Delinquent Rentals received by Purchaser within the Survival Period, Purchaser shall pay to Seller any rent or payment actually collected during the Survival Period properly attributable to the period prior to the Closing Time. All sums collected by Purchaser during the Survival Period from such Tenant (excluding Tenant payments for Operating Expense Recoveries attributable to the period prior to the Closing Time and tenant specific billings for tenant work orders and other specific services as described in and governed by Section 10.4(d) below, all of which shall be payable to and belong to Seller in all events, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary) will be applied first to amounts currently owed by such Tenant to Purchaser (including Delinquent Rentals attributable to the period after the Closing Time), then any collection costs of Purchaser related to such Tenant, and then to prior delinquencies owed by Tenant to Seller. Seller shall be entitled to institute legal actions to pursue Delinquent Rentals after Closing, but in no event shall Seller be permitted to institute eviction proceedings against any Tenant or interfere with such Tenant’s use and occupancy of its leased premises. Any sums collected by Purchaser and due to Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller, and any sums collected by Seller and due to Purchaser will be promptly remitted to Purchaser.

(c)    Seller will prepare a reconciliation as of the Closing Time of the amounts of all billings and charges for operating expenses and taxes (collectively, “Operating Expense Recoveries”) for calendar years 2019 and 2020. If less amounts have been collected from Tenants for Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar years 2019 and 2020 than would have been owed by Tenants under the Tenant Leases if the reconciliations under such Tenant Leases were completed as of the Closing Time based on the operating expenses incurred by Seller for calendar years 2019 and 2020 up to the Closing Time (as prorated pursuant to Section 10.4(a) above), Purchaser will pay such difference to Seller at Closing as an addition to the Purchase Price. If more amounts have been collected from Tenants for Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar years 2019 and 2020 than would have been owed by Tenants under the Tenant Leases if the reconciliations under the Tenant

Leases were completed as of the Closing Time based on the operating expenses incurred by Seller for calendar years 2019 and 2020 up to the Closing Time (as prorated pursuant to Section 10.4(a) above), Seller will pay to Purchaser at Closing as a credit against the Purchase Price such excess collected amount. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate to finalize prorations of the Operating Expense Recoveries within 120 days after Closing, and in no event later than June 30, 2020, in order to (x) make adjustments necessary to the extent estimates used in the calculation of such reconciliation at Closing differ from actual bills received after Closing for those items covered by such reconciliation at Closing and (y) to correct any errors. As part of the foregoing post-Closing reconciliation, Purchaser shall be responsible for (i) collecting from Tenants the amount of any outstanding Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2019, and (ii) reimbursing Tenants for amounts attributable to Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2019, as may be necessary. After the Final Proration Date, subject to Section 10.4(b) dealing with Delinquent Rentals, the foregoing proration will fully relieve Seller from any responsibility to Tenants or Purchaser for such matters.

(d)    With respect to specific tenant billings for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of a Tenant or other specific services, which are collected by Purchaser or Seller after the Closing Time but expressly state they are for such specific services rendered by Seller or its property manager prior to the Closing Time, Purchaser shall cause such collected amounts to be paid to Seller, or Seller may retain such payment if such payment is received by Seller after the Closing Time.

(e)    (i) Seller shall pay those Leasing Costs incurred in connection with any Tenant Lease space in the Property, or any amendment or supplement thereto, entered into prior to the Effective Date, but only to the extent identified on Exhibit G-1 attached hereto to the extent unpaid as of the Closing Date (“Seller Leasing Costs”), but expressly excluding the Leasing Costs described in Exhibit G-2 attached hereto; (ii) Purchaser will be solely responsible for and shall pay all Leasing Costs (“New Tenant Costs”) incurred or to be incurred in connection with any new Tenant Lease, or the renewal, expansion, or modification of any Tenant Lease executed on or after the Effective Date (the terms of which have been approved, if applicable, by Purchaser in accordance with Section 7.1(d)) plus the Leasing Costs identified on Exhibit G-2 (“Purchaser Leasing Costs”); (iii) to the extent Seller Leasing Costs described in clause (i) above remain unpaid as of Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit from Seller therefor at Closing and Purchaser shall be responsible after Closing for paying any Leasing Costs for which Purchaser received such a credit; (iv) to the extent Purchaser Leasing Costs described in clause (ii) above have been paid by Seller, Seller shall receive a credit from Purchaser therefor at Closing; and (v) Purchaser will be solely responsible for and shall pay all New Tenant Costs and all other Leasing Costs (whether arising before or after Closing).

Section 9.5    Delivery of Real Property. Upon completion of the Closing, Seller will deliver to Purchaser possession of the Real Property and Improvements, subject to the Tenant Leases and the Permitted Exceptions.

Section 9.6    Costs of Title Company and Closing Costs. Costs of the Title Company and other Closing costs incurred in connection with the Closing will be allocated as follows:

(a)    Purchaser will pay (i) all premium and other incremental costs for obtaining the Title Policy and all endorsements thereto, (ii) all premiums and other costs for any mortgagee policy of title insurance, including but not limited to any endorsements or deletions, (iii) Purchaser’s attorney’s fees, (iv) 1/2 of all of the Title Company’s escrow and closing fees, if any, (v) the costs of any update, modification, or recertification of the Survey, and (vi) any mortgage recording tax or recording fees, including fees to record the Deed and municipal lien certificates, except for those recording fees that are Seller’s responsibility pursuant to Section 10.6(b).

(b)    Seller will pay (i) the initial cost of the Survey, (ii) 1/2 of all of the Title Company’s escrow and closing fees, if any, (iii) Seller’s attorneys’ fees, (iv) any transfer taxes imposed on the sale (but not the financing) of the Real Property by the City, County and State in which the Real Property is located, (v) prepayment penalties or premiums incurred by Seller with respect to prepaying the Property’s existing mortgage indebtedness at Closing (if any), and (vi) any recording fees for the discharge of existing indebtedness at Closing (if any).

(c)    Any other costs and expenses of Closing not provided for in this Section 10.6 shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with the custom in the county in which the Property is located.

(d)    If the Closing does not occur on or before the Closing Date for any reason whatsoever, the costs incurred through the date of termination will be borne by the party incurring same.

Section 9.7    Post-Closing Delivery of Notice Letters. Immediately following Closing, Purchaser will deliver to each Tenant (via messenger or certified mail, return receipt requested) a written notice executed by Purchaser and Seller (i) acknowledging the sale of the Property to Purchaser, (ii) acknowledging that Purchaser has received and is responsible for the Tenant Deposits (specifying the exact amount of the Tenant Deposits) and (iii) indicating that rent should thereafter be paid to Purchaser and giving instructions therefor (the “Tenant Notice Letters”). Purchaser shall provide to Seller a copy of each Tenant Notice Letter promptly after delivery of same, and proof of delivery of same promptly after such proof is available.

(e)    Subject to Section 10.9, each of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct (determined without regard to any qualification by any of the terms “material” therein) as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent a representation or warranty is made as of a specific date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct at and as of such date, without regard to any such qualifications therein), except with respect to Authorized Qualifications.

The term “Authorized Qualifications” shall mean any qualifications to the representations and warranties made by Seller in Section 8.1 to reflect (i) new Tenant Leases, Tenant Lease amendments, new Service Contracts, and/or Service Contract amendments, executed by Seller in accordance with this Agreement, and (ii) any action taken by Seller in accordance with any Tenant Leases, Service Contracts, or Permitted Exceptions not prohibited by this Agreement, and (iii) a Tenant Lease default or a Tenant insolvency occurring after the Effective Date. The term “Immaterial Events” shall mean facts or events that do not, in the aggregate, result in a loss of value, damage, claim or expense in excess of $250,000. Authorized Qualifications and Immaterial Events shall not constitute a default by Seller or a failure of a condition precedent to Closing.

Section 9.9    Breaches of Seller’s Representations Prior to Closing. If, prior to the Closing, there occurs or exists a breach of a representation or warranty of Seller that in the aggregate with all other such breaches has the effect of constituting Authorized Qualifications and/or Immaterial Events, then Purchaser shall have no remedy therefor and must proceed to the Closing with no adjustment of the Purchase Price and Seller shall have no liability therefor. If, prior to the Closing, a breach (which is not the result of an Authorized Qualification or an Immaterial Event) occurs (a “Material Breach”), then Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, upon the delivery of written notice of such breach to Seller either (i) proceed to close the purchase of the Property without adjustment of the Purchase Price on account of such asserted breach (and with no liability to Seller) and waive any claims against Seller for such Claims with respect to such breach or (ii) terminate this Agreement by the giving of the written notice to Seller of same, in which event this Agreement will terminate, in which case the Earnest Money Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser, provided, if Purchaser does not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement on or before the earlier of (1) the Closing or (2) the date that is five (5) Business Days after Purchaser becomes aware of such facts or events, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to waive the condition and proceed to Closing.

Section 9.10    General Conditions Precedent to Seller’s Obligations Regarding the Closing. The obligation of Seller hereunder to close the transaction hereunder shall be conditioned upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions, any of which may be waived by written notice from Seller to Purchaser:

(a)    Purchaser shall have performed or complied in all material respects with all of the covenants and obligations of Purchaser set forth in Section 10.2, as of the Closing Date; and

(b)    The representations and warranties of Purchaser made in Section 8.2 shall be true and correct in all material respects.

Section 9.11    Failure of Condition. If any condition precedent to Seller’s obligation to effect the Closing (as set forth in Section 10.10) is not satisfied by the Closing Date, then Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to Purchaser and the Title Company. If any condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to effect the Closing (as set forth in Section 10.8) is not satisfied by the Closing Date, then subject to Section 10.9, Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to Seller and the Title Company. If this Agreement is so terminated, then Purchaser shall be entitled to receive the Earnest Money Deposit and no party shall have any further obligations hereunder, except for Termination Surviving Obligations, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the applicable conditions precedent are not satisfied due to a default by Seller or Purchaser hereunder, then Article XIII shall govern and this Section 10.11 shall not apply.

Section 10.1    Brokers. Seller agrees to pay to Jones Lang LaSalle (“Broker”) a real estate commission at Closing (but only in the event of Closing in strict compliance with this Agreement) pursuant to a separate agreement. Purchaser and Seller will indemnify, defend and hold the other party harmless from any brokerage or finder’s fee or commission claimed by any person asserting its entitlement thereto at the alleged instigation of the indemnifying party for or on account of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.1    Confidentiality.

(a)Purchaser and Seller, and each of their respective Affiliates, shall hold as confidential the pendency of this transaction, the terms, conditions, and negotiations concerning the same, and the documents and information supplied by Seller to Purchaser, and shall not release any such information to third parties without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except:

(i)    any information that (A) was previously or is hereafter publicly disclosed (other than as a result of disclosures by Purchaser or Seller, or their respective agents, employees, Affiliates, officers, directors, consultants, accountants, legal counsel, or other advisors, or the Title Company, of any of the foregoing with a need to know such information, in violation of this Agreement or other confidentiality agreements to which Purchaser and Seller (or their respective Affiliates) are a party); (B) becomes available to Purchaser on a non-confidential basis from any person or entity other than Seller; or (C) was independently developed by Purchaser;

(ii)    to (A) Purchaser’s and Seller’s respective agents, employees, Affiliates, officers, directors, consultants, accountants, legal counsel, or other advisors, or the Title Company, of any of the foregoing with a need to know such information, or (B) Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ actual or potential partners, rating agencies, underwriters, lenders or tenants; provided, in each case, that they are advised as to the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to maintain such confidentiality;

(iii)    to the extent such party reasonably believes that such disclosure is required by law, regulation (including U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations and the preparation or filing of any tax returns or other filings), or order of a court or other governmental body (provided prior written notice of disclosure pursuant to any such order shall be provided to the other party);

(iv)    as made by Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with an earnings call or other communications to actual or potential investors, shareholders or analysts, or any public company communications or filings;

(v)    in connection with any suit, action, dispute, arbitration or other proceedings between the parties hereto or their respective Affiliates; or

(vi)    from and after Closing, Purchaser shall have the unrestricted right to disclose such confidential information relating to the Property (as distinguished from confidential information relating to the economics of the transactions contemplated hereby).

The foregoing shall replace and supersede any prior confidentiality agreement that may have been entered into by the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a)    Without limiting the provisions of the foregoing Section 12.1(a), neither Seller nor Buyer may issue a press release with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other party and provided that the content of any such press release shall be subject to the prior written consent of the other party.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller or its Affiliates (or any entity advised by Seller’s affiliates) shall be permitted to disclose in press releases, SEC and other filings with governmental authorities, financial statements and/or other communications such information regarding the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and/or the terms of this Agreement and any such information relating to the Property as it may reasonably believe to be necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws, rules, or regulations

(including SEC rules and regulations), “generally accepted accounting principles,” or other accounting rules or procedures; provided that, except with respect to Seller’s 8-K and 10-K filings with the SEC, Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser at least three (3) Business Days prior to any disclosure pursuant to this subsection (c).

(c)    The provisions of this Section 12.1 will survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.1    Default by Seller. If Closing of the purchase and sale transaction provided for herein does not occur as herein provided by reason of any default of Seller, Purchaser may, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, (a) elect by written notice to Seller within five (5) days following the scheduled Closing Date, to terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser will receive (x) from the Title Company, the Earnest Money Deposit, and (y) from Seller, reimbursement of Purchaser’s third-party legal and diligence costs (up to a maximum of $150,000), and Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations, or (b) pursue specific performance of this Agreement, so long as any action or proceeding commenced by Purchaser against Seller shall be filed and served within sixty (60) days after the scheduled Closing Date, and, in either event, Purchaser hereby waives all other remedies, including without limitation, any claim against Seller for damages of any type or kind including, without limitation, consequential or punitive damages. Unless otherwise expressly required pursuant to this Agreement, in no event shall Seller be obligated to undertake any of the following (i) change the condition of the Property or restore the same after any fire or casualty; (ii) expend money or post a bond to remove or insure over anything other than a Must-Cure Matter or to correct any matter shown on a survey of the Property; (iii) secure any permit, approval, or consent with respect to the Property or Seller’s conveyance thereof; or (iv) expend any money to repair, improve or alter the Improvements or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.1 will limit Purchaser’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Seller of any of the Closing Surviving Obligations after Closing or the Termination Surviving Obligations after termination, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 12.2    DEFAULT BY PURCHASER. IN THE EVENT THE CLOSING AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN DO NOT OCCUR AS PROVIDED HEREIN (TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE) BY REASON OF ANY DEFAULT OF PURCHASER, PURCHASER AND SELLER AGREE IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER. PURCHASER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT (i) AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT, TOGETHER WITH ALL INTEREST ACCRUED THEREON, IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT PURCHASER DEFAULTS AND FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY, AND (ii) THE TITLE COMPANY SHALL PAY THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT, TOGETHER WITH ALL INTEREST ACCRUED

THEREON, TO SELLER AND WILL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR PURCHASER’S DEFAULT AND FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY, AND WILL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY (WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY) FOR ANY DEFAULT OF PURCHASER RESULTING IN THE FAILURE OF CONSUMMATION OF THE CLOSING, WHEREUPON THIS AGREEMENT WILL TERMINATE AND SELLER AND PURCHASER WILL HAVE NO FURTHER RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE TERMINATION SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 13.2 HEREIN WILL LIMIT SELLER’S REMEDIES AT LAW, IN EQUITY OR AS HEREIN PROVIDED IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ANY OF THE CLOSING SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS AFTER CLOSING OR THE TERMINATION SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS AFTER TERMINATION.

Section 12.3    Consequential and Punitive Damages. Seller and Purchaser each waive any right to sue the other for any consequential or punitive damages for matters arising under this Agreement (it being understood that Seller and Purchaser each have waived the right to obtain incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages in connection with any default of Purchaser or Seller respectively, or otherwise, which, in the case of Purchaser, include, without limitation, loss of profits or inability to secure lenders, investors or buyers).

Section 13.1    Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder will be in writing, and will be given by (a) personal delivery, or (b) professional expedited delivery service with proof of delivery, or (c) electronic mail (received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as the addressee will have designated by written notice sent in accordance herewith and will be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery, or, in the case of expedited delivery service, as of the date of first attempted delivery on a Business Day at the address or in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of electronic mail transmission, upon receipt if on a Business Day and, if not on a Business Day, on the next Business Day. Unless changed in accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notices given pursuant to this Agreement will be as follows:

Section 14.1    Assignment; Binding Effect. Purchaser will not have the right to assign this Agreement without Seller’s prior written consent, to be given or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to a wholly-owned and controlled Affiliate of Purchaser without the consent of Seller, provided that any such assignment does not relieve Purchaser of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other party will be conferred any rights by virtue of this Agreement or be entitled to enforce any of the provisions hereof. Whenever a reference is made in this Agreement to Seller or Purchaser, such reference will include the successors and permitted assigns of such party under this Agreement.

Section 15.1    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller set forth in this Agreement and Seller’s liability under any provision of this Agreement and under any Closing Document, will survive the Closing only until the end of the Survival Period. Purchaser shall not have any right to bring any action against Seller as a result of (i) any untruth, inaccuracy or breach of such representations, warranties, or covenants under this Agreement or any Closing Document, or (ii) the failure of Seller to perform its obligations under any other provision of this Agreement or under any other document or agreement executed in connection with this Agreement, including all documents and agreements executed at Closing (“Closing Documents”), (x) unless Purchaser has delivered written notice of such untruth, inaccuracy, breach or failure within the Survival Period, and (y) unless and until the aggregate amount of all liability and losses arising out of all such untruths, inaccuracies, breaches and failures exceeds $75,000, and then Seller’s liability shall start from the first dollar of Purchaser’s losses. In addition, in no event will Seller’s liability for all such untruths, inaccuracies, breaches, and/or failures under Section 8.1, any other provision of this Agreement or under any Closing Documents exceed, in the aggregate, one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Purchase Price.

(b)    Seller shall have no liability with respect to any of Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants herein if, prior to the Closing, Purchaser has actual knowledge of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein, or

Purchaser has actual knowledge (from whatever source, including, without limitation, any tenant estoppel certificates, as a result of Purchaser’s review of the Due Diligence Items and its due diligence tests, investigations and inspections of the Property, or written disclosure by Seller or Seller’s agents and employees) that contradicts any of Seller’s representations, warranties or covenants, or agreements herein, and Purchaser nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser’s “actual knowledge” shall mean the actual, conscious knowledge of Hunter Kass.

(c)    Subject to Sections 16.1(a) and 16.1(b), the Closing Surviving Obligations will survive Closing without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement. All other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made or undertaken by Seller under this Agreement will not survive the Closing Date but will be merged into the Closing Documents delivered at the Closing. The Termination Surviving Obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(d)    The limitations on Seller’s liability contained in this Article XVI are in addition to, and not limitation of, any limitation on liability provided elsewhere in this Agreement or by law or any other contract, agreement or instrument.

Section 16.1    Waivers; Amendments. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or provisions contained herein will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach thereof, or of any other covenant or provision contained herein. No extension of time for performance of any obligation or act will be deemed an extension of the time for performance of any other obligation or act. This Agreement may not be amended except in a writing signed by both Seller and Purchaser.

Section 16.2    Recovery of Certain Fees. In the event a party hereto files any action or suit against another party hereto by reason of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements or provisions contained in this Agreement, then the prevailing party thereto will be entitled to recover from the other party all attorneys’ fees and costs resulting therefrom, subject, however, in the case of Seller, to the limitations set forth in Section 16.1 above. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “attorneys’ fees” or “attorneys’ fees and costs” shall mean all court costs and the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing, photostatting, duplicating and other expenses, air freight charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of an attorney, and the costs and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of any judgment obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of this Section 17.2 shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or be deemed to have merged, into any judgment.

Section 16.3    Time of Essence. Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that time is strictly of the essence with respect to each and every term, condition, obligation and provision hereof.

Section 16.4    Construction. Headings at the beginning of each article and section are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the singular will include the plural and the masculine will include the feminine and vice versa. This Agreement will not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. All exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and incorporated by this reference, and any capitalized term used in any exhibit or schedule which is not defined in such exhibit or schedule will have the meaning attributable to such term in the body of this Agreement. In the event the date on which Purchaser or Seller is required to take any action under the terms of this Agreement is not a Business Day, the action will be taken on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 16.5    Further Assistance. In addition to the actions recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed, and/or delivered by Seller and Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser agree to perform, execute and/or deliver or cause to be performed, executed and/or delivered at the Closing or after the Closing any and all such further acts, instruments, deeds and assurances as may be reasonably required to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 16.6    Counterparts; Electronic Signatures Binding. To facilitate execution of this Agreement, this Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, when assembled to include an original, faxed or electronic mail (in .PDF or similar file complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000) signature for each party contemplated to sign this Agreement, will constitute a complete and fully executed agreement. All such fully executed original, faxed or electronic mail (in .PDF or similar file complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000) counterparts will collectively constitute a single agreement, and such signatures shall be legally binding upon the party sending the signature by such electronic means immediately upon being sent by such party.

Section 16.7    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all of the other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any adverse manner to any party. Without limiting the foregoing, if the limitation on the time period for bringing claims being limited to the Survival Period is held by a court to be unenforceable, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that the applicable limitations period for bringing claims under this Agreement shall be reduced to the shortest period permitted under applicable law. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to reflect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 16.8    Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings (oral or written) with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or terminated, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by

written instrument, signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in writing, or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

Section 16.9    Governing Law and Venue. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONSTRUED, PERFORMED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS THAT ARE SEATED IN BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT AND AGREE TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.

Section 16.10    No Recording. The parties hereto agree that neither this Agreement nor any affidavit concerning it will be recorded.

Section 16.11    Further Actions. The parties agree to execute such instructions to the Title Company and such other instruments and to do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.12    No Other Inducements. The making, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto have been induced by no representations, statements, warranties or agreements other than those expressly set forth herein.

Section 16.13    Exhibits. The following exhibits are incorporated herein by reference:

Section 16.14    No Partnership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to make the parties hereto partners or joint venturers, it being the intention of the parties to merely create the relationship of Seller and Purchaser with respect to the Property to be conveyed as contemplated hereby.

Section 16.15    Limitations on Benefits. It is the explicit intention of Purchaser and Seller that no person or entity other than Purchaser and Seller and their permitted successors and assigns is or shall be entitled to bring any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement against any of the parties hereto, and the covenants, undertakings and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable only by, Purchaser and Seller or their respective successors and assigns as permitted hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall under any circumstances whatsoever be deemed or construed, or be interpreted, as making any third party (including, without limitation, Broker or any Tenant) a beneficiary of any term or provision of this Agreement or any instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto, and Purchaser and Seller expressly reject any such intent, construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 16.16    Exculpation. In no event whatsoever shall recourse be had or liability asserted against any of either party’s partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, officers or their respective constituent members, partners, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, officers or other owners. Each party’s direct and indirect shareholders, partners, members, beneficiaries and owners, and their respective trustees, officers, directors, employees, agents and security holders, assume no personal liability for any obligations entered into on behalf of such party under this Agreement and the Closing Documents.

Section 16.17    Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE THAT ANY SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

Section 16.18    Tax Deferred Exchange. The parties acknowledge and agree that Seller may transfer, and/or Purchaser may acquire, the Property as part of a tax-deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and/or a reverse exchange in accordance with Revenue Procedure 2000-37, and that each has the right to restructure all or part of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement as a concurrent, delayed (non-simultaneous), or reverse tax-deferred exchange for the benefit of such party. Each party shall cooperate with the other and acknowledge any assignment to a qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if a party elects to convey or acquire the Property in connection with such a tax-deferred exchange within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Code (an “Exchange”) and, if requested, shall accommodate the other party with respect to any such Exchange, provided that a party’s election to effect such an Exchange shall not delay the Closing (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement), create any additional conditions to the Closing, create any additional costs or liabilities for the other party, or require the other party to take title to any other property. A party, in electing to structure the transaction as an Exchange, shall have the right to substitute, assign, or delegate its rights and duties to one or more entities or persons who will be such party’s

qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder at the Closing, but in no event shall the party electing to effect such an Exchange be released from any liabilities or obligations under this Agreement.

Section 16.19    Post Closing Access to Records. Upon receipt by Seller of Purchaser’s reasonable written request at any time and from time to time until June 30, 2020, Seller shall make available (or cause its property manager or asset manager, as applicable, to make available) to Purchaser and its accountants and designees, for inspection and copying during normal business hours and at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, (i) all accounting records relating to the Property for the calendar year periods ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2019, and for the period from January 1, 2020 through the Closing Date, including, without limitation, all general ledgers, cash receipts, canceled checks and other accounting documents or information reasonably requested by Purchaser and related to the Property, and (ii) all other records related to the Property, in either case whether in the possession or control of Seller or Seller’s property manager, asset manager or other agent.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Purchaser have respectively executed this Agreement to be effective as of the date first above written.

Provided the Closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement occurs, the undersigned (“Guarantor”) agrees to and does guaranty, subject to the limitations on survival and liability contained in this Agreement, Seller’s post-Closing obligations under this Agreement, including any liability relating to Seller’s breach of any representation or warranty.

Guarantor does hereby waive each of the following: (a) any and all notices and demands of every kind which may be required to be given by any statute, rule or law, and (b) any and all subrogation, contribution, indemnity and reimbursement rights against Seller until the obligations have been paid, performed and fully satisfied in full. Guarantor further waives any right to require Purchaser to join Seller in any action brought under this joinder by Guarantor or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. In the event of any default hereunder, a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not Seller is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against Seller.

Guarantor’s liability shall not be impaired, modified, changed, released or limited in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of liability of Seller or of any remedy for the enforcement thereof, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law or statute of the United States or any state thereof covering insolvency, bankruptcy, rehabilitation, liquidation or reorganization (collectively, “Bankruptcy Laws”), it being the intention of Guarantor that Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be determined without regard to any Bankruptcy Laws which may relieve Seller of any obligations.
