3.4    Independent Contract Consideration. Additionally, at the same time as the deposit of the Deposit with the Escrow Holder, Buyer shall deliver to Seller in cash the sum of One Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($100.00) (the “Independent Contract Consideration”) which amount has been bargained for and agreed to as consideration for Buyer’s exclusive option to purchase the Property and the right to inspect the Real Property as provided herein, and for Seller’s execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Independent Contract Consideration is in addition to and independent of all other consideration provided in this Agreement, and is nonrefundable in all events.

4.    PROPERTY INFORMATION; TITLE REVIEW; INSPECTIONS AND DUE DILIGENCE; TENANT ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES; CONFIDENTIALITY

4.1    Property Information. Seller shall make available to Buyer within five (5) business days after the date of this Agreement, to the extent in Seller’s possession, the following, all of which shall be made available for review and copying (at Buyer’s cost and expense) in an electronic document center or at the Real Property (collectively, the “Property Information”):

(a)    the Leases and all amendments and side letters;

(b)    a current rent roll for the Real Property, indicating rents collected, scheduled rents and concessions, delinquencies, and security deposits held (collectively, the “Rent Rolls”);

(c)    the most current and the previous three (3) years of operating statements for the Real Property, if available (collectively, the “Operating Statements”);

(d)    copies of the Contracts;

(e)    any building plans, floor plans, and/or as-builts (base building and tenant build-outs), BOMA calculations and CAD files, local architect and engineering contact information, structural and parking reports;

(f)    chiller-10 year tear down report, elevator reports and load tests;

(g)    copies of existing warranties, licenses, permits and certificates of occupancy;

(h)    copies of the last two years’ tax bills and any proposed reassessment valuation;

(i)    a list of all insurance claims and major repairs of a capital nature during the last five (5) years;

(j)    existing land title surveys, if any, for the Real Property (collectively, the “Existing Surveys”); and

(k)    any environmental, soils and/or engineering reports prepared for Seller or Seller’s predecessors.

Under no circumstances shall Buyer be entitled to review any appraisals relating to the Property or any internal financial audits relating to the Property.

4.2    Title and Survey Review; Title Policy.

4.2.1    Delivery of Title Report. Seller shall promptly request the Title Company to deliver to Buyer a preliminary title report or title commitment covering the Real Property (the “Title Report”), together with copies of all documents (collectively, the “Title

Documents”) referenced in the Title Report. Buyer, at its option and expense, may (a) obtain a new survey for the Real Property or (b) cause one or more of the Existing Surveys to be updated or recertified (either, a “New Survey”). Buyer understands and acknowledges that if Buyer elects to obtain a New Survey for the Real Property the completion and/or delivery of the surveys or updated or recertified surveys shall not be a condition precedent to the Close of Escrow. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer further acknowledges that Seller makes no representations or warranties, and Seller shall have no responsibility, with respect to the completeness of the Title Documents made available to Buyer by the Title Company.

4.2.2    Title Review and Cure. Commencing from the date of this Agreement and continuing through and including the Title Review Period, Buyer shall have the right to approve or disapprove the condition of title to the Real Property. On or before the expiration of the Title Review Period, Buyer shall deliver to Seller and Escrow Holder written notice (“Buyer’s Title Notice”) of Buyer’s approval or disapproval of the matters reflected in the Title Report, the Existing Survey, and/or the New Survey, if any. The failure of Buyer to deliver to Seller Buyer’s Title Notice on or before the expiration of the Title Review Period shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s approval of the condition of title to the Real Property. If Buyer disapproves any matter of title shown in the Title Report or Existing Survey for the Real Property, then Seller may, but shall have no obligation to, within one (1) business day after its receipt of the Buyer’s Title Notice for the Real Property (“Seller’s Election Period”), elect to eliminate or ameliorate to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction the disapproved title matters by giving Buyer written notice (“Seller’s Title Notice”) of those disapproved title matters, if any, which Seller agrees to so eliminate or ameliorate by the Closing Date. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any title exception disapproved by Buyer shall be deemed ameliorated to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction to the extent that Seller either causes such exception to be removed from the Title Policy (as such term is defined in Section 4.2.3 hereof) or to be affirmatively insured over. If Seller does not elect to, or is unable to, eliminate or ameliorate any disapproved title matters, Buyer reasonably disapproves Seller’s Title Notice, or Seller fails to timely deliver Seller’s Title Notice, then Buyer shall have the right, upon delivery to Seller and Escrow Holder (on or before one (1) business day following the expiration of Seller’s Election Period) of a written notice, to either: (a) waive its prior disapproval, in which event said disapproved matters shall be deemed approved; or (b) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow (as such term is defined in Section 9.1 hereof). Failure to take either one of the actions described in (a) and (b) above shall be deemed to be Buyer’s election to take the action described in clause (a) above. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as provided in clause (b) above, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, the parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement (except pursuant to any provisions which by their terms survive a termination of this Agreement), the Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer and Buyer shall immediately return all Property Information to Seller. Buyer shall have been deemed to have approved any title exception that Seller is not obligated to remove and to which either Buyer did not object as provided above, or to which Buyer did object, but with respect to which Buyer did not terminate this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, Seller covenants and agrees to remove (or cause to be removed) from the Property (which obligation shall be deemed satisfied if the same is insured over and the amount secured by any of the instruments referenced in clauses (a) and (b) below have been paid and the holders of the same are obligated to cause the same to be released from the Property) concurrently with the Close of Escrow (a) all deeds of trust, mortgages and/or other debt instruments to the extent executed by Seller or expressly assumed

by Seller in writing, and (b) any other monetary liens (other than mechanic’s liens that are considered Permitted Exceptions) which are of an ascertainable amount, and do not exceed $75,000.00 in the aggregate and are capable of being removed upon the payment of no more than $75,000.00 in the aggregate; provided, however, that the foregoing $75,000.00 cap shall not apply to the claim of mechanics lien filed by Bates & Associates, Inc. as Case No. 15SL-ML00159 (the “Bates Lien”) recorded October 27. 2015, as Instrument No. 15SL-ML00159; provided, further, that Seller shall cause the Bates Lien to be removed from the Title Policy or to be affirmatively insured over, in which case the Bates Lien shall be deemed approved.

If at any time after the expiration of the Title Review Period, any update to the Buyer’s title commitment or Title Report (an “Updated Title Report”) discloses any additional item (other than any items arising from a new or updated survey obtained by Buyer) that “materially” and adversely affects title to the Property which was not disclosed on any version of or update to the title commitment delivered to Buyer during the Due Diligence Period and which do not constitute a Permitted Exception (a “New Exception”), then Buyer shall have the right to object to such New Exceptions by giving written notice to Seller (the “Additional Title Notice”) of the New Exceptions to which Buyer is objecting within two (2) business days after the receipt by Buyer of the Updated Title Report. If Buyer does not object to any New Exception by giving timely written notice as herein provided, such New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception. Seller may, but shall have no obligation to, within two (2) business days after its receipt of the Additional Title Notice (“Seller’s Additional Election Period”), respond to such notice. If, prior to the expiration of Seller’s Additional Election Period, Seller does not elect to eliminate or ameliorate such New Exceptions, Buyer reasonably disapproves Seller’s response to Buyer’s Additional Title Notice, or Seller fails to timely deliver a response to Buyer’s Additional Title Notice, then Buyer shall have the right, upon delivery to Seller and Escrow Holder (on or before the earlier of the Closing Date and two (2) business days following the expiration of Seller’s Additional Election Period) of a written notice, to either: (a) waive its prior disapproval of any New Exception, in which event said New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception; or (b) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow. For purposes of this paragraph, a New Exception that consists of a monetary lien shall be deemed to “materially” affect title if the cost to remove or insure over such exception would cost more than $75,000.00 in the aggregate.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, provided that Buyer provides a completed estoppel certificate for any of the covenants, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Title Report, Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver same to the appropriate parties for execution; provided, however, that Seller shall have no obligation to deliver such estoppel certificates to Buyer, it being understood and agreed by Buyer that receipt of same shall not be a precondition to the Close of Escrow.

4.2.3    Delivery of Title Policy at Closing. As a condition precedent to the Close of Escrow, the Title Company shall have issued and delivered to Buyer, or shall have committed to issue and deliver to Buyer, with respect to the Real Property, a Standard Coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (2006 Form) (the “Title Policy”) issued by the Title Company as of the date and time of the recording of the Deed (as such term is defined in Section 6.1 hereof) for the Real Property, in the amount of the Purchase Price insuring Buyer as owner of good, marketable and indefeasible fee simple title to the Real Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted

Exceptions” shall mean and include (a) any lien to secure payment of real estate taxes, including special assessments, not delinquent, (b) all matters which could be revealed or disclosed by a physical inspection or a survey of the Real Property and matters affecting the Real Property which are created by or with the written consent of Buyer, (c) the rights of the tenants under the Leases affecting the Real Property, (d) all exceptions disclosed by the Title Report relating to the Real Property and which are approved or deemed approved by Buyer in accordance with Section 4.2.2 hereof, (e) any exception for liens (and/or potential liens) for services, labor or materials heretofore or hereafter furnished to the Property for which Buyer is entitled to a credit at Closing pursuant to this Agreement, for which Buyer is expressly responsible for payment under the terms of this Agreement, and/or which arises from any services, labor or materials contracted for by any tenant at the Property and with respect to which any such tenant is responsible for payment under the terms of its Lease, and (f) all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and governmental regulations (including, without limitation, those relating to building, zoning and land use) affecting the development, use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Real Property.

4.3    Inspections; Due Diligence Period.

4.3.1    Inspections in General. Commencing from the Effective Date and continuing through and including the Closing Date, Buyer, its agents, and employees shall have a limited license (the “License”) to enter upon the Real Property for the purpose of making non-invasive inspections at Buyer’s sole risk, cost and expense. Before any such entry, Buyer shall provide Seller with a certificate of insurance naming Seller as an additional insured and with an insurer and insurance limits and coverage reasonably satisfactory to Seller. All of such entries upon the Real Property shall be at reasonable times during normal business hours and after at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice to Seller or Seller’s agent, and Seller or Seller’s agent shall have the right to accompany Buyer during any activities performed by Buyer on the Real Property.

4.3.2    Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, Buyer shall have no right to inspect any of the occupied space in the Real Property, and Buyer shall not contact or speak to any of the tenants under the Leases, unless Buyer provides Seller with no less than forty-eight (48) hours prior written notice of such intention and Seller or Seller’s representative is present during such inspections and/or discussions with tenants; any discussions with tenants shall immediately cease at the tenant’s request and any discussions with tenants must be limited to their existing tenancy and premises and may not involve any lease renegotiations. Seller agrees to make itself or its representatives reasonably available Buyer’s inspections and/or discussions with tenants. Inspections by Buyer shall not interfere with the rights of tenants. At Seller’s request, Buyer shall provide Seller (at no cost to Seller) with a copy of the results of any tests and inspections made by Buyer, excluding only market and economic feasibility studies. If any inspection or test disturbs the Real Property, Buyer will restore the Real Property to the same condition as existed before the inspection or test. Buyer shall defend, indemnify Seller and hold Seller, Seller’s trustees, officers, tenants, agents, contractors and employees and the Real Property harmless from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, claims, or liabilities, including but not limited to, mechanics’ and materialmens’ liens and Seller’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with Buyer’s, or its agents’, contractors’, employees’, or invitees’ entry upon or inspection of the Real Property, but expressly excluding

any such losses, costs, damages, claims or liabilities arising from Buyer’s discovery of a pre-existing condition on the Real Property not caused by Buyer (so long as Buyer and Buyer’s representative did not exacerbate any such pre-existing condition) or arising from Seller’s negligence or willful misconduct. The License shall be deemed revoked upon termination of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 4.3.1 shall survive the Close of Escrow or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

4.3.3    Environmental Inspections. The inspections under Section 4.3.1 may include non-invasive Phase I environmental inspections of the Real Property, but no Phase II environmental inspections or other invasive inspections or sampling of soil or materials, including without limitation construction materials, either as part of the Phase I inspections or any other inspections, shall be performed without the prior written consent of Seller, which may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, and if consented to by Seller, the proposed scope of work and the party who will perform the work shall be subject to Seller’s reasonable review and approval.

4.3.4    Termination During Due Diligence Period. If Buyer determines, in its sole discretion, before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, that the Real Property is unacceptable for Buyer’s purposes, for any reason or no reason, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving to Seller notice of termination (“Termination Notice”) before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, in which event the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Buyer, Buyer shall immediately return all Property Information to Seller and, except for those provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall have no further obligations hereunder. If Buyer fails to deliver a Termination Notice to Seller and Escrow Holder on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.3.3. Buyer’s delivery of a Termination Notice to Seller with respect to the Real Property shall constitute Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement with respect to the Real Property as provided above in this Section 4.3.3.

4.4    Tenant Estoppel Certificates; SNDAs. Seller shall endeavor to secure and deliver to Buyer by the Closing Date estoppel certificates for all Leases consistent with the information in the Rent Rolls and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D or such form as may be required under the applicable Leases. Buyer may terminate this Agreement upon two (2) business days written notice to Seller if, no less than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, Seller fails to deliver to Buyer estoppel certificates substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D or such form as may be required under any particular Lease (“Tenant Estoppel Certificates”), executed by tenants under Leases covering at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the leased rental floor area of the Real Property, including Husch Blackwell LLP, Ernst Young US LLP, Olin Corporation and Northern Trust Company, and meeting the foregoing requirements (the “Estoppel Threshold”). Prior to transmitting the Tenant Estoppel Certificates (with all exhibits thereto attached) to the tenants, Seller shall afford Buyer an opportunity to review the Tenant Estoppel Certificates. Buyer agrees that it shall approve or provide reasonable objections in writing to Seller within two (2) business days following receipt of the same from Seller; failure by Buyer to provide its approval within such two (2) business day period shall be deemed to be Buyer’s approval of the Tenant Estoppel Certificates, and Seller shall be permitted to transmit the Tenant Estoppel Certificates to the

tenants. Buyer shall have the right to review and approve any Tenant Estoppel Certificates executed by a tenant; provided, however, Buyer shall not be entitled to object to any Tenant Estoppel Certificate executed by a tenant unless (a) the tenant under its Lease modifies any of the statements in the Tenant Estoppel Certificate to disclose material adverse matters, or (b) the tenant under its Lease indicates in the Tenant Estoppel Certificate any of the following: (1) that Seller is in material default under the terms of the Lease, (2) it has a claim or offset right, and Seller is unwilling or unable to give Buyer a credit in immediately available funds at the Close of Escrow in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Buyer to satisfy such claim or offset right in full, or (3) discloses (i) any information materially inconsistent with the Lease, (ii) a material breach by Seller, (iii) a material dispute between it and the Seller, or (iv) any material unrepaired, uncured or unperformed defect, claim, liability or obligation of Seller and/or with respect to the Real Property, each as reasonably determined by Buyer. Buyer shall be deemed to have approved an executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate unless it notifies Seller in writing of its disapproval of the same (to the extent permitted above in this Section 4.4) within three (3) business days following its receipt of the same (“Rejected Estoppel”). To the extent the matters set forth in the Rejected Estoppel cannot be resolved to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction on or prior to the Closing Date and to the extent the Rejected Estoppel is needed to satisfy the Estoppel Threshold, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit. For the purposes of this Section 4.4, “material” shall mean the cost to cure would cost more than $75,000.00 in the aggregate.

Following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (and not until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period), Buyer shall be entitled to deliver to tenants for signature subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements (“SNDA’s”) provided (i) Buyer provides to Seller prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, and Seller approves (in Seller’s reasonable discretion), the form of SNDA, and (ii) Buyer has acknowledged in writing that it has received and approved (or waived its right to receive and approve) all Tenant Estoppel Certificates to which it is entitled in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.4. Under no circumstances shall Buyer’s receipt of executed SNDA’s from tenants be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transaction contemplated under this Agreement.

4.5    Contracts. Buyer shall assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under the Contracts; provided, however, notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, Buyer shall not be obligated to assume any of Seller’s obligations under, and Seller shall terminate at Close of Escrow, the management and leasing agreement listed in Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof, except that, notwithstanding Seller’s termination of the management and leasing agreement listed in Exhibit C attached hereto, and in consideration of Seller’s terminating the same, Buyer shall be responsible for, and Buyer shall assume pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Assignment of Leases and Contracts and Bill of Sale, as hereinafter defined, all leasing commissions payable (notwithstanding the termination of the management and leasing agreement) under the management and leasing agreement after the Close of Escrow arising out of the lease of space in the Property after the Close of Escrow.

4.6    Confidentiality. Prior to the Close of Escrow or in the event the Close of Escrow never occurs, the Property Information and all other information, other than matters of public record or matters generally known to the public, furnished to, or obtained through inspection of the Real Property by, Buyer, its affiliates, lenders, employees, attorneys, accountants and other

professionals or agents relating to the Real Property, will be treated by Buyer, its affiliates, lenders, employees and agents as confidential, and will not be disclosed to anyone (except as reasonably required in connection with Buyer’s evaluation of the Real Property) except to Buyer’s consultants, investors, lenders, employees, accountants, lawyers, members, managers, directors, officers or agents who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information, and will be returned to Seller by Buyer if the Close of Escrow does not occur. The terms of this Agreement will not be disclosed to anyone prior to or after the Close of Escrow except to Buyer’s and Seller’s consultants, investors, lenders, employees, accountants, lawyers, members, managers, directors, officers or agents who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information and Seller and Buyer agree not to make any public announcements or public disclosures or communicate with any media with respect to the subject matter hereof without the prior written consent of the other party (in their sole and absolute discretion). The confidentiality provisions of this Section 4.6 shall not apply to any disclosures made by Buyer or Seller as required by law, by court order, or in connection with any subpoena served upon Buyer or Seller; provided Buyer and Seller shall provide each other with written notice before making any such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained herein shall impair Seller’s (or any Seller affiliate’s) right to disclose information relating to this Agreement or the Property (a) to any due diligence representatives and/or consultants that are engaged by, work for or are acting on behalf of, any securities dealers and/or broker dealers evaluating Seller or its affiliates, (b) in connection with any filings (including any amendment or supplement to any S‑11 filing) with governmental agencies (including the United States Securities and Exchange Commission) by any REIT holding an interest (direct or indirect) in Seller, and (c) to any broker/dealers in the Seller’s or any REIT’s broker/dealer network and any of the REIT’s or Seller’s investors.

Risk of loss resulting from any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding which is commenced or has been threatened against the Real Property before the Close of Escrow, and risk of loss to the Real Property due to fire, flood or any other cause before the Close of Escrow, shall remain with Seller. If before the Close of Escrow the Real Property or any portion thereof shall be materially damaged, or if the Real Property or any material portion thereof shall be subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation or shall become the subject of any proceedings, judicial, administrative or otherwise, with respect to the taking by eminent domain or condemnation, then Buyer may elect not to acquire the Real Property by delivering written notice of such election to Seller within ten (10) days after

Buyer learns of the damage or taking, in which event Buyer shall no longer be obligated to purchase, and Seller shall no longer be obligated to sell, the Real Property. If the Closing Date is within the aforesaid ten‑day period, then the Close of Escrow shall be extended to the next business day following the end of said ten‑day period. If no such election is made, and in any event if the damage is not material, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, the purchase contemplated herein, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, shall be effected with no further adjustment, and upon the Close of Escrow, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to any awards that have been or that may thereafter be made for such taking, and Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer any insurance proceeds that may thereafter be made for such damage or destruction giving Buyer a credit at the Close of Escrow for any deductible under such policies. For purposes of this Section 5.8, the phrase(s) (i) “Material damage” or “Materially damaged” means damage reasonably exceeding three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price of the Real Property or damage that results in any tenant leasing more than 10,000 square feet (“Material Tenant”) in the Real Property terminating their lease or reducing their rent, and (ii) “material portion” means (A) any portion of the Real Property that has a “fair market value” exceeding three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price of the Real Property, (B) would result in allowing a Material Tenant to terminate its Lease or to reduce its rent, (c) would materially impair ingress or egress to or from the Real Property, or (d) would reduce the number of parking spaces at the Real Property causing the Property to violate applicable zoning requirements or the lease of any Material Tenant.

9.3    Procedures Upon Failure of Condition.

(b)    Escrow Holder shall promptly return to Buyer all funds of Buyer in its possession, including the Deposit and all interest accrued thereon, and to Seller and Buyer all documents deposited by them respectively, which are then held by Escrow Holder;

10.    PRORATIONS

If the Purchase Price is received by Seller’s depository bank in time to credit to Seller’s account on the Closing Date, the day the Close of Escrow occurs shall belong to Buyer and all prorations hereinafter provided to be made as of the Close of Escrow shall each be made as of the end of the day before the Closing Date. If the cash portion of the Purchase Price is not so

received by Seller’s depository bank on the Closing Date, then the day the Close of Escrow occurs shall belong to Seller and such proration shall be made as of the end of the day that is the Closing Date. In each such proration set forth below, the portion thereof applicable to periods beginning as of Close of Escrow shall be credited to Buyer or charged to Buyer as applicable and the portion thereof applicable to periods ending as of Close of Escrow shall be credited to Seller or charged to Seller as applicable.

10.1    Collected Rent. All rent (including, without limitation, all base rents, additional rents and retroactive rents, and expressly excluding tenant reimbursements for Operating Costs, as hereinafter defined) and all other income (and any applicable state or local tax on rent) (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Rents”) collected under Leases in effect on the Closing Date shall be prorated as of the Close of Escrow. Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for any free rent credits owing to any tenant (for periods from and after the Closing Date) to the extent such free rent is set forth on Schedule 1-2 attached hereto. Uncollected Rent (“Uncollected Rent”) shall not be prorated and, to the extent payable for the period prior to the Close of Escrow, shall remain the property of Seller. Unless otherwise specifically identified by a tenant to be paid in any other order, Buyer and Seller shall apply Rent from tenants that are collected after the Close of Escrow first to Rents which are due to Buyer after the Close of Escrow and second to Rents which were due to Seller on or before the Close of Escrow. Any prepaid Rents for the period following the Closing Date shall be paid over by Seller or credited to Buyer. Buyer will make reasonable efforts, without suit, to collect any Rents applicable to the period before the Close of Escrow including, without limitation, sending to tenants bills for the payment of past due Rents during the first six (6) month period following the Closing Date. Seller may pursue collection of any Rents that were past due as of the Closing Date, provided that Seller shall have no right to terminate any Lease or any tenant’s occupancy under any Lease in connection therewith.

10.2    Operating Costs and Additional Rent Reconciliation. Seller, as landlord under the Leases, is currently collecting from tenants under the Leases additional rent to cover taxes, insurance, utilities (to the extent not paid directly by tenants), common area maintenance and other operating costs and expenses (collectively, “Operating Costs”) in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance and management of the Real Property. To the extent that any additional rent (including, without limitation, estimated payments for Operating Costs) is paid by tenants to the landlord under the Leases based on an estimated payment basis (monthly, quarterly, or otherwise) for which a future reconciliation of actual Operating Costs to estimated payments is required to be performed at the end of a reconciliation period, Buyer and Seller shall make an adjustment at the Close of Escrow for the applicable reconciliation period (or periods, if the Leases do not have a common reconciliation period) based on a comparison of the actual Operating Costs to the estimated payments at the Close of Escrow. If, as of the Close of Escrow, Seller has received additional rent payments in excess of the amount that tenants will be required to pay, based on the actual Operating Costs as of the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall receive a credit in the amount of such excess. If, as of the Close of Escrow, Seller has received additional rent payments that are less than the amount that tenants would be required to pay based on the actual Operating Costs as of the Close of Escrow, Seller shall receive a credit in the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, Seller shall not be entitled to the portion, if any, of such deficiency for which Seller received a credit at the Close of Escrow under clause (b) of Section 10.3 hereof. Operating Costs that are not payable by tenants either directly or

reimbursable under the Leases shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer and shall be reasonably estimated by the parties if final bills are not available.

10.3    Taxes and Assessments. Real estate taxes and assessments imposed by any governmental authority (“Taxes”) with respect to the Real Property for the relevant tax year in which the Real Property is being sold and that are not yet due and payable or that have not yet been paid shall be prorated as of the Close of Escrow based upon the most recent ascertainable assessed values and tax rates and based upon the number of days Buyer and Seller will have owned the Real Property during such relevant tax year. Seller shall receive a credit for any Taxes paid by Seller and applicable to any period after the Close of Escrow. If, as of the Closing Date, Seller is protesting or has notified Buyer, in writing, that it has elected to protest any Taxes for the Real Property, then Buyer agrees that Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation), after the Closing Date, to continue such protest. In such case, any Taxes paid by Buyer after the Closing Date with respect to the Real Property shall be paid under protest and Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of any payments of Taxes made by Buyer with respect to the Real Property. Buyer further agrees to cooperate, at no cost to Buyer, with Seller and execute any documents reasonably requested by Seller in connection with such protest. As to the Real Property, any tax savings received (“Tax Refunds”) for the relevant tax year under any protest, whether filed by Seller or Buyer, shall be prorated between the parties based upon the number of days, if any, Seller and Buyer respectively owned the Real Property during such relevant tax year; any payment of Tax Refunds to the other party shall be net of any fees and expenses payable to any third party for processing such protest, including attorneys’ fees. Seller shall have the obligation to refund to any tenants in good standing as of the date of such Tax Refund, any portion of such Tax Refund paid to Seller which may be owing to such tenants, which payment shall be paid to Buyer within fifteen (15) business days of delivery to Seller by Buyer of written confirmation of such tenants’ entitlement to such Tax Refunds. Buyer shall have the obligation to refund to tenants in good standing as of the date of such Tax Refund, any portion of such Tax Refund paid to it which may be owing to such tenants. Seller and Buyer agree to notify the other in writing of any receipt of a Tax Refund within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of such Tax Refund. To the extent either party obtains a Tax Refund, a portion of which is owed to the other party, the receiving party shall deliver the Tax Refund to the other party within fifteen (15) business days of its receipt. If Buyer or Seller fail to pay such amount(s) to the other as and when due, such amount(s) shall bear interest from the date any such amount is due to Seller or Buyer, as applicable, until paid at the lesser of (a) twelve percent (12%) per annum and (b) the maximum amount permitted by law. The obligations set forth herein shall survive the Close of Escrow and Buyer agrees that, as a condition to the transfer of the Property by Buyer, Buyer will cause any transferee to assume the obligations set forth herein.

10.4    Leasing Commissions, Tenant Improvements and Contracts. At Close of Escrow, Buyer shall assume (pursuant to the Assignment of Leases and Contracts and Bill of Sale) the obligation to pay all (a) leasing costs that are due or become due prior to the Closing Date to the extent that the same (i) arise from a new lease or any Lease amendment, extension or expansion hereafter entered into by Seller in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or (ii) arise out of any New and Pending Lease Transactions (including, without limitation, the commissions and/or tenant improvements referenced in Section 5.3 hereof), and (b) leasing costs that are due after the Closing Date. Buyer will assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under the Contracts. In accordance with the provisions

of Section 5.3 hereof, Buyer shall receive a credit towards the Purchase Price equal to the leasing commissions and tenant improvement allowances referred to in Schedule 1-2 attached hereto to the extent the same remains unpaid as of the Close of Escrow.

10.5    Tenant Deposits. All tenant security deposits actually received by Seller (and interest thereon if required by law or contract to be earned thereon) and not theretofore applied to tenant obligations under the Leases in accordance with the terms of the Leases shall be transferred or credited to Buyer at the Close of Escrow or placed in escrow if required by law. As of the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall assume Seller’s obligations related to tenant security deposits. Buyer will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from and against all demands and claims made by tenants arising out of the transfer or disposition of any security deposits and will reimburse Seller for all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred or that may be incurred as a result of any such claims or demands as well as for all loss, expenses, verdicts, judgments, settlements, interest, costs and other expenses incurred or that may be incurred by Seller as a result of any such claims or demands by tenants. If any security deposits are in the form of a letter of credit, Seller’s obligation to deliver or credit such deposit shall be satisfied by the delivery by Seller of the original letter of credit to Buyer. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer to transfer any such letters of credit, including signing any assignment document requested by the issuer and presented to Seller prior to or after Closing, but expressly excluding any obligation to draw on any letter of credit for the benefit of Buyer. All costs of the assignment of any letter of credit shall be paid by Buyer without prejudice to Buyer’s right to seek reimbursement from a tenant for such costs post-closing if permitted under the respective lease.

10.6    Utilities and Utility Deposits. Utilities for the Real Property (excluding utilities for which payment is made directly by tenants), including water, sewer, electric, and gas, based upon the last reading of meters prior to the Close of Escrow, shall be prorated. Seller shall be entitled to a credit for all security deposits held by any of the utility companies providing service to the Real Property and transferred to Buyer. Seller shall endeavor to obtain meter readings on the day before the Closing Date, and if such readings are obtained, there shall be no proration of such items and Seller shall pay at Close of Escrow the bills therefor for the period to the day preceding the Close of Escrow, and Buyer shall pay the bills therefor for the period subsequent thereto. If the utility company will not issue separate bills, Buyer will receive a credit against the Purchase Price for Seller’s portion and will pay the entire bill prior to delinquency after Close of Escrow. If Seller has paid utilities no more than thirty (30) days in advance in the ordinary course of business, then Buyer shall be charged its portion of such payment at Close of Escrow. Buyer shall be responsible for making any security deposits required by utility companies providing service to the Real Property.

10.7    Owner Deposits. Seller shall receive a credit at the Close of Escrow in the amount set forth on Schedule 3 attached hereto for all bonds, deposits, letters of credit, set aside letters or other similar items, if any, that are outstanding with respect to the Real Property that have been provided by Seller or any of its affiliates to any governmental agency, public utility, or similar entity (collectively, “Owner Deposits”) to the extent assignable and assigned to Buyer. To the extent any Owner Deposits are not assignable to Buyer, Buyer shall replace such Owner Deposits and obtain the release of Seller (or its affiliates) from any obligations under such Owner Deposits. To the extent that any funds are released as a result of the termination of any Owner

Deposits for which Seller did not get a credit, such funds shall be delivered to Seller immediately upon their receipt.

10.8    Percentage Rents. Percentage rents (“Percentage Rents”) actually collected for the month in which the Close of Escrow occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. Percentage Rents due after the Close of Escrow shall not be prorated; provided, however, after Buyer has completed any reconciliation of actual Percentage Rents payable and estimated Percentage Rents paid by the subject tenants, and all reconciled amounts have been paid, a reconciliation shall be made between Seller and Buyer with regard to such Percentage Rents. Pursuant to such reconciliation, Seller and Buyer shall be entitled to their proportionate share of all Percentage Rents paid for the subject fiscal Lease year used to calculate each tenant’s Percentage Rents (less any out-of-pocket costs incurred in collecting said amounts, which shall belong to Buyer) based on the number of days of such fiscal year Seller and Buyer owned the Property (and adjusted for any amount of Percentage Rent prorated at Closing or received by Seller or Buyer). As used in this paragraph, the term “Percentage Rents” shall not include and shall have deducted from such Percentage Rent amount any “base” or “minimum” rent component which is payable each month (regardless of actual sales), which “base” or “minimum” rent component shall be prorated or otherwise handled in the manner provided in this Agreement. Buyer will make reasonable efforts, without suit, to collect all Percentage Rents payable after the Close of Escrow and relating to the period prior to the Close of Escrow, and all Percentage Rents which are delinquent as of the Close of Escrow, including, without limitation, sending to tenants bills for the payment of the same. Seller may pursue collection of all Percentage Rents payable after the Close of Escrow and relating to the period prior to the Close of Escrow and all Percentage Rents which are delinquent as of the Close of Escrow, provided that Seller shall have no right to terminate any Lease or any tenant’s occupancy under any Lease in connection therewith.

10.9    Final Adjustment After Closing. If final prorations cannot be made at the Close of Escrow for any item being prorated under this Section 10, then, provided Buyer and Seller identify any such proration (“Post Closing Proration”) in writing before the Close of Escrow, Buyer and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as invoices or bills are available and applicable reconciliation with tenants have been completed, with final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Close of Escrow (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Close of Escrow, except that adjustments arising from any tax protest under Section 10.3 or from Percentage Rents under Section 10.8 hereof shall not be subject to such 90‑day limitation, but shall be made as soon as reasonably possible), to the effect that income and expenses are received and paid by the parties on an accrual basis with respect to their period of ownership. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due no later than ninety (90) days after the Close of Escrow, except that adjustments arising from any tax protest under Section 10.3 or relating to Percentage Rents under Section 10.8 hereof shall not be subject to such 90‑day limitation, but shall be made as soon as reasonably possible. Seller shall have reasonable access to, and the right to inspect and audit, Buyer’s books to confirm the final prorations for a period of one (1) year after the Close of Escrow. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in this Section 10, except for any reconciliation arising out of a tax protest under Section 10.3 hereof, or arising out of Percentage Rents under Section 10.8 hereof, and except for any Post Closing Prorations (which must be determined and paid within ninety (90) days after the Close of Escrow), all prorations made under this Section 10 shall be final as of the

Close of Escrow and shall not be subject to further adjustment (whether due to an error or for any other reason) after the Close of Escrow.

(j)    To Seller’s Actual Knowledge, neither Seller nor any of its respective affiliates or constituents, nor any of their respective brokers or other agents acting in any capacity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is or will be (a) conducting any business or engaging in any transaction or dealing with any person appearing on the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) list of restrictions and prohibited persons (“Prohibited Person”) (which lists can be accessed at the following web address: http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/), including the making or receiving of any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Prohibited Person; (b) dealing in, or otherwise engaging in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224 dated September 24, 2001, relating to “Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism”; or (c) engaging in or conspiring to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempting to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any U.S. anti-money laundering law.

For purposes of this Section 11.1, the phrase “To Seller’s Actual Knowledge” shall mean the actual (and not implied, imputed, or constructive) knowledge of Brett Merz (whom the Seller represents is the asset manager for the Real Property), without any inquiry or investigation of any other parties, including, without limitation, the tenants and the property manager of the Real Property.

The representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement shall survive the recordation of the Deed until November 30, 2017 and any action for a breach of Seller’s representations or warranties must be made and filed on or before November 30, 2017. If, after the Effective Date, but before the Close of Escrow, Seller becomes aware of any facts or changes in circumstances that would cause any of its representations and warranties in this Agreement to be untrue at Close of Escrow, Seller may notify Buyer in writing of such fact. In such case, or in the event Buyer obtains information which would cause any of Seller’s representations and warranties to be untrue at Close of Escrow, Buyer, as its sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the right to either (i) terminate this Agreement to the extent that the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true would have a “material adverse impact” on the Property, in which case the Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement (except for Sections 4.3.1, 15.3 and 15.5 which survive termination of this Agreement); or (ii) to the extent Buyer is not permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) above, accept a qualification to Seller’s representations and warranties as of the Close of Escrow and complete the purchase and sale of the Property without

any rights to recovery for breach of the unqualified representation and warranty. Other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, if Buyer proceeds with the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall be deemed to have expressly waived any and all remedies for the breach of any representation or warranty discovered by Buyer prior to the Close of Escrow. For purposes of this paragraph, a breached representation or warranty shall be deemed to have a “material adverse impact” if it deals with a liquidated amount in excess of $75,000.00 and Seller elects not to provide Buyer with a credit for such amount at Close of Escrow.

11.2    As-Is. As of the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer will have:

(a)    examined and inspected the Property and will know and be satisfied with the physical condition, quality, quantity and state of repair of the Property in all respects (including, without limitation, the compliance of the Real Property with the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 Pub.L. 101-336, 104 Stat. 327 (1990), and any comparable local or state laws (collectively, the “ADA”)) and by proceeding with this transaction following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall be deemed to have determined that the same is satisfactory to Buyer;

(b)    reviewed the Property Information and all instruments, records and documents which Buyer deems appropriate or advisable to review in connection with this transaction, including, but not by way of limitation, any and all architectural drawings, plans, specifications, surveys, building and occupancy permits, and any licenses, leases, contracts, warranties and guarantees relating to the Real Property or the business conducted thereon, and Buyer, by proceeding with this transaction following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, shall be deemed to have determined that the same and the information and data contained therein and evidenced thereby are satisfactory to Buyer;

(c)    reviewed all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and governmental regulations (including, but not limited to, those relating to building, zoning and land use) affecting the development, use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Real Property, and Buyer, by proceeding with this transaction following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, shall be deemed to have determined that the same are satisfactory to Buyer; and

(d)    at its own cost and expense, made its own independent investigation respecting the Property and all other aspects of this transaction, and shall have relied thereon and on the advice of its consultants in entering into this Agreement, and Buyer, by proceeding with this transaction following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, shall be deemed to have determined that the same are satisfactory to Buyer.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES IN SECTION 11.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY WARRANTIES OF TITLE CONTAINED IN THE DEED DELIVERED AT THE CLOSE OF ESCROW (“SELLER’S WARRANTIES”), THIS SALE IS MADE AND WILL BE MADE WITHOUT REPRESENTATION, COVENANT, OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND (WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, STATUTORY) BY SELLER. AS A MATERIAL PART OF THE CONSIDERATION FOR THIS AGREEMENT, BUYER

AGREES TO ACCEPT THE PROPERTY ON AN “AS IS” AND “WHERE IS” BASIS, WITH ALL FAULTS, AND WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, ALL OF WHICH SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS, EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S WARRANTIES. EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S WARRANTIES, NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION IS MADE BY SELLER AS TO FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, DESIGN, QUALITY, CONDITION, OPERATION OR INCOME, COMPLIANCE WITH DRAWINGS OR SPECIFICATIONS, ABSENCE OF DEFECTS, ABSENCE OF HAZARDOUS OR TOXIC SUBSTANCES, ABSENCE OF FAULTS, FLOODING, OR COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THOSE RELATING TO HEALTH, SAFETY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE ADA). BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BUYER HAS ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT WITH THE INTENTION OF MAKING AND RELYING UPON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF THE PHYSICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, ECONOMIC USE, COMPLIANCE, AND LEGAL CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY AND THAT BUYER IS NOT NOW RELYING, AND WILL NOT LATER RELY, UPON ANY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MADE BY SELLER OR ANYONE ACTING OR CLAIMING TO ACT, BY, THROUGH OR UNDER OR ON SELLER’S BEHALF CONCERNING THE PROPERTY. ADDITIONALLY, BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT (A) EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S WARRANTIES, BUYER IS TAKING THE PROPERTY “AS IS” WITH ALL LATENT AND PATENT DEFECTS AND THAT EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S WARRANTIES, THERE IS NO WARRANTY BY SELLER THAT THE PROPERTY IS FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, (B) EXCEPT FOR SELLER’S WARRANTIES, BUYER IS SOLELY RELYING UPON ITS EXAMINATION OF THE PROPERTY, AND (C) BUYER TAKES THE PROPERTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT UNDER THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE ARE NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES (EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTIES OF TITLE SET FORTH IN THE DEED AND SELLER’S WARRANTIES).

WITH RESPECT TO THE FOLLOWING, BUYER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SELLER SHALL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY, OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY OF ANY KIND AND THAT SELLER HAS MADE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND:

BUYER ALSO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE REAL PROPERTY MAY OR MAY NOT CONTAIN ASBESTOS AND, IF THE REAL PROPERTY CONTAINS ASBESTOS, THAT BUYER MAY OR MAY NOT BE REQUIRED TO REMEDIATE ANY ASBESTOS CONDITION IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW.

BUYER IS A SOPHISTICATED REAL ESTATE INVESTOR AND IS, OR WILL BE AS OF THE CLOSE OF ESCROW, FAMILIAR WITH THE REAL PROPERTY AND ITS SUITABILITY FOR BUYER’S INTENDED USE. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.2 SHALL SURVIVE INDEFINITELY ANY CLOSING OR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND SHALL NOT BE MERGED INTO THE DOCUMENTS EXECUTED AT CLOSE OF ESCROW.

12.    BUYER’S COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; RELEASE; ERISA; INDEMNIFICATION

In consideration of Seller entering into this Agreement and as an inducement to Seller to sell the Real Property to Buyer, Buyer makes the following covenants, representations and warranties:

12.1    Buyer’s Representations and Warranties.

(a)    Authority. Buyer is a limited liability company formed and in good standing under the laws of the State of Illinois. Buyer has the legal right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized and no other action by Buyer is requisite to the valid and binding execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. There is no agreement to which Buyer is a party or to Buyer’s knowledge binding on Buyer which is in conflict with this Agreement.

(b)    Executive Order 13224. To the best of Buyer’s knowledge, neither Buyer nor any of its respective affiliates or constituents, nor any of their respective brokers or other agents acting in any capacity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is or will be (a) conducting any business or engaging in any transaction or dealing with any person appearing on the OFAC list of Prohibited Persons (which lists can be accessed at the following web address: http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/), including the making or receiving of any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Prohibited Person; (b) dealing in, or otherwise engaging in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224 dated September 24, 2001, relating to “Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism”; or (c) engaging in or conspiring to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempting to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any U.S. anti-money laundering law.

12.2    Release. By proceeding with this transaction following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have made its own independent investigation of the Property, the Property Information and the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Real Property as Buyer deems appropriate. Accordingly, subject to the representations and warranties of Seller expressly set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, Buyer, on behalf of itself and all of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives and affiliated entities (collectively, the “Releasors”) hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies Releasors may now or hereafter have against Seller, its successors and assigns, partners, shareholders, officers and/or directors (the “Seller Parties”), whether known or unknown, which may arise from or be related to (a) the physical condition, quality, quantity and state of repair of the Real Property and the prior management and operation of the Real Property, (b) the Property Information or any other information relating to the Property provided to Buyer by Seller or Seller’s agents, (c) the Real Property’s compliance or lack of compliance with any federal, state or local laws or regulations, and (d) any past, present or future presence or existence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Real Property or with respect to any past, present or future violation of any rules, regulations or laws, now or hereafter enacted, regulating or governing the use, handling, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials, including, without limitation, (i) any and all rights and remedies Releasors may now or hereafter have under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Toxic Substance Control Act, all as amended, and any similar state, local or federal environmental law, rule or regulation, and (ii) any and all claims, whether known or unknown, now or hereafter existing, with respect to the Real Property under Section 107 of CERCLA (42 U.S.C.A. §9607). As used herein, the term “Hazardous Material(s)” includes, without limitation, any hazardous or toxic materials, substances or wastes, such as (1) any materials, substances or wastes which are toxic, ignitable, corrosive or reactive and which are regulated by any local governmental authority, or any agency of the United States government, (2) any other material, substance, or waste which is defined or regulated as a hazardous material, extremely hazardous material, hazardous waste or toxic substance pursuant to any laws, rules, regulations or orders of the United States government, or any local governmental body, (3) asbestos, (4) petroleum and petroleum based products, (5) formaldehyde, (6) polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and (7) freon and other chlorofluorocarbons.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, BUYER, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND THE OTHER RELEASORS, HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RISK AND LIABILITY RESULTING OR ARISING FROM, OR RELATING TO THE OWNERSHIP, USE, CONDITION, LOCATION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, OR OPERATION OF, THE PROPERTY.

THE FOREGOING WAIVERS, RELEASES AND AGREEMENTS BY BUYER, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND THE RELEASORS, SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSE OF

ESCROW AND THE RECORDATION OF THE DEED AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED MERGED INTO THE DEED UPON ITS RECORDATION.

12.3    ERISA. Buyer is not purchasing any of the Property with “plan assets” of an Employee Benefit Plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (as amended from time to time, the “Act,” and together with any regulation, rule or judicial or administrative case, order, or pronouncement arising under or connected with the Act, “ERISA”) or of a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Buyer shall take all actions reasonably requested by Seller for the purpose of ensuring, to Seller’s satisfaction, that the transactions contemplated herein will comply with ERISA and not result in an imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code; such actions shall include, without limitation, the making of such further representations and warranties as Seller’s counsel reasonably deems necessary to ensure that neither this Agreement nor any of the transactions contemplated herein will violate ERISA or result in an imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code. In the event that this Agreement, or any transaction or other action by Seller in connection herewith, shall be deemed to violate ERISA or result in an imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code, Seller may immediately terminate this Agreement (without any liability to Seller) in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 9.3 hereof as if such termination arose from a failed condition under Section 9.3 hereof.

13.    DEFAULT AND DAMAGES

13.1    DEFAULT BY BUYER. BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, IN THE EVENT THE CLOSE OF ESCROW FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO A BUYER DEFAULT (ALL OF THE CONDITIONS TO BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS TO CLOSE HAVING BEEN SATISFIED OR WAIVED), SELLER WILL SUFFER DAMAGES IN AN AMOUNT WHICH WILL, DUE TO THE SPECIAL NATURE OF THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND THE SPECIAL NATURE OF THE NEGOTIATIONS WHICH PRECEDED THIS AGREEMENT, BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN. IN ADDITION, BUYER WISHES TO HAVE A LIMITATION PLACED UPON THE POTENTIAL LIABILITY OF BUYER TO SELLER IN THE EVENT THE CLOSE OF ESCROW FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO A BUYER DEFAULT, AND WISHES TO INDUCE SELLER TO WAIVE OTHER REMEDIES WHICH SELLER MAY HAVE IN THE EVENT OF A BUYER DEFAULT. BUYER AND SELLER, AFTER DUE NEGOTIATION, HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER WILL SUSTAIN IN THE EVENT OF SUCH BUYER DEFAULT. BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT SELLER MAY, IN THE EVENT THE CLOSE OF ESCROW FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO A BUYER DEFAULT, TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT BY WRITTEN NOTICE TO BUYER AND ESCROW HOLDER, CANCEL THE ESCROW AND RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND ESCROW HOLDER SHALL DELIVER THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER NO EARLIER THAN THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER ESCROW HOLDER’S AND BUYER’S RECEIPT OF SELLER’S NOTICE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, IN THE EVENT BUYER DELIVERS A WRITTEN OBJECTION TO SELLER’S NOTICE WITHIN THE TIME PERIOD SET FORTH ABOVE, ESCROW HOLDER SHALL NOT RELEASE

THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT JOINT DIRECTION IS ISSUED BY THE PARTIES, OR IN CONNECTION WITH ESCROW HOLDER FILING AN INTERPLEADER ACTION IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION IN THE COUNTY OR CIRCUIT WHERE THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED. SUCH PAYMENT OF THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY.

NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 13.1 SHALL (A) PREVENT OR PRECLUDE ANY RECOVERY OF ATTORNEYS’ FEES OR OTHER COSTS INCURRED BY SELLER PURSUANT TO SECTION 15.5 OR (B) IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE EFFECTIVENESS OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF BUYER CONTAINED IN SECTION 4.3.1 AND SECTION 14 HEREOF. SELLER AND BUYER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 13.1 AND BY THEIR INITIALS IMMEDIATELY BELOW AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS.

13.2    Default by Seller. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Seller (a) had actual knowledge that any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 11.1 hereof were untrue as of the Effective Date and the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true would have a “material adverse impact” (as such term is defined in Section 11.1 hereof) on the Property, or (b) defaults in its obligations expressly stated in this Agreement, then Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to elect one of the following: (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which event Buyer shall be entitled to the return by the Escrow Holder to Buyer of the Deposit and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Buyer’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), as supported by reasonable documentation satisfactory to Seller, incurred in connection with Buyer’s due diligence investigations and negotiation and execution of this Agreement, not to exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) in the aggregate, or (ii) if Seller’s breach arises out of its failure to sell and convey the Property to Buyer on the Closing Date, to bring a suit for specific performance for such breach provided that any suit for specific performance must be brought as to the Property within 45 days of Seller’s default, Buyer’s waiving the right to bring suit at any later date to the extent permitted by law; provided further, however, to the extent that Seller cause Buyer’s remedy of specific performance to be unavailable due to Seller’s selling the Property to another third-party prior to the Closing Date, then Buyer shall be entitled to recover damages from Seller. This Agreement confers no present right, title or interest in the Property to Buyer and Buyer agrees not to file a lis pendens or other similar notice against the Real Property except in connection with, and after, the proper filing of a suit for specific performance. Nothing in this Section 13.2 shall prevent or preclude any recovery of attorneys’ fees or other costs incurred by Buyer pursuant to Section 15.5.

14.    BROKER’S COMMISSIONS

Except for Paul Lundstedt and Dan Deuter at CB Richard Ellis, Seller’s broker (whose commission shall be paid by Seller pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Seller’s broker), neither party hereto has had any contact or dealing regarding the Real Property, or any communication in connection with the subject matter of this transaction, through any licensed real estate broker or other person who can claim a right to a commission or finder’s fee as a procuring cause of the sale contemplated herein. In the event that any other broker or finder perfects a claim for a commission or finder’s fee, the party responsible for the contact or communication on which the broker or finder perfected such claim shall indemnify, save harmless and defend the other party from said claim and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the other party in defending against the same.

15.2    Assignment; Binding on Successors and Assigns. Buyer shall not assign, transfer or convey its rights or obligations under this Agreement or with respect to the Property without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent Seller may withhold in its sole, absolute and subjective discretion; provided, however, Buyer may assign its rights under this Agreement without Seller’s consent to an Affiliate (as hereinafter defined), so long as (i) Buyer provides Seller with notice of such assignment at least five (5) business days before the Closing Date of its intentions to assign its rights under this Agreement to the Affiliate, which notice must be accompanied by the name of such assignee and such assignee’s signature block, (ii) the Affiliate assumes, jointly and severally, in writing Buyer’s obligations hereunder and the Affiliate agrees in writing to be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K and made a part hereof (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”), (iii) Buyer shall not be released from its obligations hereunder; and (iv) the assignee to which Buyer is assigning this Agreement is able to make the representation and warranty in Section 12.1(b) herein without violating the same. As used in this Section 15.2, the term “Affiliate” means an entity that is partially owned by Buyer or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Buyer or one or more of Buyer’s current principals; provided, however, that, in no event shall Buyer be permitted to assign to multiple Affiliates (two or more), it being understood

and agreed to by the parties hereto that Buyer shall not take title in a so-called “TIC” or tenant-in-common investment structure.

15.3    Work Product. Effective upon and in the event of a termination of this Agreement for any reason other than Seller’s default or breach, Buyer shall deliver to Seller (without any representation or warranty as to such documents and at no cost to Seller) all third party reports relating to the physical condition of the Real Property that have been generated by Buyer’s third party consultants, whether prior to the Opening of Escrow or during the period of Escrow in connection with Buyer’s proposed acquisition, development, use or sale of the Real Property (collectively, the “Work Product”). In such event, Buyer shall deliver the Work Product to Seller not later than five (5) days after the date of the termination of this Agreement. The Work Product shall be fully paid for and shall not be subject to any lien, encumbrance or claim of any kind. Buyer shall also return all materials and information (including, without limitation, the Property Information) given to it by Seller or its consultants during Escrow, in the same condition as delivered to Buyer.

15.4    Further Assurances. In addition to the acts and deeds recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed or delivered by Seller or Buyer, Seller and Buyer hereby agree to perform, execute and deliver, or cause to be performed, executed and delivered, on the Closing Date or thereafter any and all such further acts, deeds and assurances as Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, may reasonably require in order to consummate fully the transactions contemplated hereunder.

15.5    Attorneys’ Fees. If any legal action or any arbitration or other proceeding is brought or if an attorney is retained for the enforcement of this Agreement or any portion thereof, or because of any alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other reimbursement for the reasonable fees of attorneys and other costs (including court costs and witness fees) incurred by it, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled. The term “prevailing party” means the party obtaining substantially the relief sought, whether by compromise, settlement or judgment.

15.6    Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants, Obligations and Agreements.

(a)    Except as otherwise expressly provided below in this Section 15.6, none of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Close of Escrow or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.6(a), the indemnification provisions of Buyer under Sections 4.3.1 and 14 hereof and the provisions of Sections 4.6, 11.2, 13.2, 15.3, 15.5, 15.17, 15.19 and 15.20 hereof (collectively, the “Surviving Termination Obligations”) shall survive the termination of this Agreement without limitation (provided, however, that Section 14 only survives for a period of six (6) months after termination of this Agreement), and any claim based upon any breach of a representation or warranty, or a breach of a covenant, obligation or agreement included in any of the Surviving

Termination Obligations shall be actionable and enforceable at any time after the date of the termination of this Agreement.

(c)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.6(a), the indemnification provisions of Buyer under Sections 4.3.1, 14 and 10.5 hereof, the provisions of Sections 4.6, 10.1, 10.3, 10.4, 10.8, 11.2, 12.1, 12.2, and 12.3 that relate to Buyer and the provisions of Sections 15.5, 15.17, 15.19 and 15.20 hereof (collectively, the “Surviving Closing Obligations”) shall survive the Close of Escrow without limitation (provided, however, that Section 14 only survives for a period of six (6) months after termination of this Agreement), and shall not be merged with the recording of the Deed, and any claim based upon any breach of a representation or warranty, or a breach of a covenant, obligation or agreement included in any of the Surviving Closing Obligations shall be actionable and enforceable at any time after the Closing.

(d)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.6(a), the indemnification provisions of Seller under Section 14 hereof and the provisions of Section 11.1 hereof (collectively, the “Limited Surviving Closing Obligations”) shall survive the Close of Escrow and the execution and delivery of the Deed only until November 30, 2017, and any claim based upon any breach of a representation or warranty, or a breach of a covenant, obligation or agreement included in any of the Limited Surviving Closing Obligations shall be actionable and enforceable if and only if notice of such claim is given to the party which allegedly breached such representation or warranty, or breached such covenant, obligation or agreement on or before November 30, 2017. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall Seller’s liability, if any, with respect to any Limited Surviving Closing Obligations and/or any Surviving Closing Obligations exceed One Million Seven Hundred Ten Thousand Dollars ($1,710,000.00) in the aggregate.

15.7    Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect to the subject matter hereof, and the parties intend for the literal words of this Agreement to govern and for all prior negotiations, drafts, and other extrinsic communications, whether oral or written, to have no significance or evidentiary effect. The parties further intend that neither this Agreement nor any of its provisions may be changed, amended, discharged, waived or otherwise modified orally except only by an instrument in writing duly executed by the party to be bound thereby. The parties hereto fully understand and acknowledge the importance of the foregoing sentence and are aware that the law may permit subsequent oral modification of a contract notwithstanding contract language which requires that any such modification be in writing, but Buyer and Seller fully and expressly intend that the foregoing requirements as to a writing be strictly adhered to and strictly interpreted and enforced by any court which may be asked to decide the question. Each party hereto acknowledges that this Agreement accurately reflects the agreements and understandings of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and hereby waive any claim against the other party which such party may now have or may hereafter acquire to the effect that the actual agreements and understandings of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof may not be accurately set forth in this Agreement.

15.8    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Missouri.

15.9    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

15.10    Headings; Construction. The various headings of this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provision hereof. When the context and construction so require, all words used in the singular herein shall be deemed to have been used in the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine and the neuter and vice versa. The use in this Agreement of the term “including” and related terms such as “include” shall in all cases mean “without limitation.” All references to “days” in this Agreement shall be construed to mean calendar days unless otherwise expressly provided and all references to “business days” shall be construed to mean days on which national banks are open for business.

15.11    Time of Essence. Seller and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that time is strictly of the essence with respect to each and every term, condition, obligation and provision hereof and failure to perform timely any of the terms, conditions, obligations or provisions hereof by either party shall constitute a material breach of, and non-curable (but waivable) default under this Agreement by the parties so failing to perform.

15.12    Partial Validity; Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each such term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

15.13    No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and no third party is intended to, or shall have, any rights hereunder.

15.14    Intentionally Omitted.

15.15    Joint Product of Parties. This Agreement is the result of arms-length negotiations between Seller and Buyer and their respective attorneys. Accordingly, neither party shall be deemed to be the author of this Agreement and this Agreement shall not be construed against either party.

15.16    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 at, unless such last day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday for national banks in California, in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which is neither a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m. (California time).

15.17    Procedure for Indemnity. The following provisions govern actions for indemnity under this Agreement. Promptly after receipt by an indemnitee of notice of any claim,

such indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnitor, deliver to the indemnitor written notice thereof and the indemnitor shall have the right to participate in and, if the indemnitor agrees in writing that it will be responsible for any costs, expenses, judgments, damages, and losses incurred by the indemnitee with respect to such claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnitor, if the indemnitee reasonably believes that representation of such indemnitee by the counsel retained by the indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of indemnitee to deliver written notice to the indemnitor within a reasonable time after indemnitee receives notice of any such claim shall relieve such indemnitor of any liability to the indemnitee under this indemnity only if and to the extent that such failure is prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, and the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnitee other than under this indemnity. If an indemnitee settles a claim without the prior written consent of the indemnitor, then the indemnitor shall be released from liability with respect to such claim unless the indemnitor has unreasonably withheld such consent.

15.18    Waiver of Jury Trial. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

15.19    No Personal Liability. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, Seller’s liability under this Agreement prior to the Close of Escrow shall be limited to Seller’s interest in the Property, and after the Close of Escrow, neither Seller’s constituent partners and/or members, Seller’s asset manager, Seller’s directors, employees or agents nor Buyer’s constituent partners and/or members, Buyer’s asset manager, Buyer’s directors, employees or agents shall have any personal liability hereunder.

15.20    Joint and Several Liability. If Buyer is composed of more than one individual or entity, all obligations and liabilities of Buyer under this Agreement shall be joint and several as to each of the individuals or entities who compose Buyer.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement the day and year first above written.

__________________ (“Member”) is the sole owner of ________________ (“Seller”). Seller, a disregarded entity for U.S. tax purposes, is the transferor of certain real property more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Property”).

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including Section 1445 of the Code), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity. To inform the transferee that withholding of tax will not be required in connection with the disposition of the Property pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of ______________, 20__, by and between ___________________, a __________ (“Buyer”) and Seller, the undersigned certifies the following on behalf of Member:

1.    Member is not a foreign corporation, foreign Company, foreign trust or foreign estate, as those terms are defined in the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder;

2.    Member is not a disregarded entity as defined in Treasury Regulations §1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii),

3.    Member’s U.S. employer identification number is __________, and

4.    Member’s address is: 800 Newport Center Drive, Suite 700, Newport Beach, California 92660.

It is understood that this certificate may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury I declare that I have examined the foregoing certification and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and I further declare that I have authority to sign this document on behalf of Member.
