If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer or a final judgment of a court. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (a), if Buyer delivers a notice to Escrow Agent and Seller prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period stating that Buyer has terminated this Agreement, then Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Buyer without the necessity of delivering any notice to, or receiving any notice from Seller.

Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of Escrow Agent.

9.Default.

(a)Should Buyer violate or fail to fulfill and perform any terms or conditions of this Agreement, Seller shall notify Buyer thereof in writing ("Seller's Default Notice"), and should Buyer fail to correct any failure noted on Seller’s Default Notice within ten (10) days of receipt of the same, then, provided Seller is not itself in breach hereof, Seller may, as its sole and exclusive remedy on account thereof, either: (i) waive such default and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof; or (ii) declare this Agreement to be terminated, and Seller shall be entitled to immediately receive all of the Earnest Money as liquidated damages as and for Seller’s sole remedy. Upon such termination, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Seller and Buyer agree that (x) actual damages due to Buyer’s default hereunder would be difficult and inconvenient to ascertain and that such amount is not a penalty and is fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, (y) the amount specified as liquidated damages is not disproportionate to the damages that would be suffered and the costs that would be incurred by Seller as a result of having withdrawn the Property from the market, and (z) Buyer desires to limit its liability under this Agreement to the amount of the Earnest Money paid in the event Buyer fails to complete Closing. Seller hereby waives

Nothing contained herein shall limit or restrict Seller's ability to pursue any rights or remedies it may have against Buyer with respect to those obligations that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement as provided herein. In no event under this Section 9(a) or otherwise shall Buyer be liable to Seller for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.

(b)Should Seller violate or fail to fulfill and perform any terms or conditions of this Agreement, Buyer shall notify Seller thereof in writing ("Buyer's Default Notice"), and should Seller fail to correct any failure noted on Buyer’s Default Notice within ten (10) days of receipt of the same, then, so long as Buyer is not itself in breach hereof, Buyer may, as its sole and exclusive remedy on account thereof, either: (i) waive any unsatisfied conditions and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof; (ii) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller no later than Closing, upon which termination the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Buyer, which return and payment shall operate as liquidated damages, and to terminate this Agreement and release Seller and Buyer from any and all rights, obligations and liability hereunder, except those which are specifically stated herein to survive any termination hereof; or (iii) pursue an action for specific performance of this Agreement.

(d)Buyer or anyone claiming by, through or under Buyer hereby fully and irrevocably releases Seller and Seller's Representatives from any and all claims that it may now have or hereafter acquire against Seller or Seller's Representatives for any cost, loss, liability, damage, expense, action or cause of action, whether foreseen or unforeseen, arising from or related to any structural, engineering or environmental condition at the Property, including without limitation the presence or absence, location or scope of any hazardous materials in, at, or under the Property (whether patent, latent or otherwise) as of the date of Closing.

Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State or Commonwealth in which the Property is located, without giving effect to any state's conflict of laws principles.
21. SELLER AND BUYER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY, UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER ARISING IN TORT OR CONTRACT) BROUGHT BY EITHER AGAINST THE OTHER ON ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED AND DELIVERED BY A PARTY IN CONNECTION HEREWITH (INCLUDING ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE).

22.Tax-Deferred Exchange. Buyer and Seller respectively acknowledge that the purchase and sale of the Property contemplated hereby may be part of a separate exchange (an Exchange) being made by each party pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations

13



promulgated with respect thereto. In the event that either party (the Exchanging Party) desires to effectuate such an exchange, then the other party (the Non-Exchanging Party) agrees to cooperate fully with the Exchanging Party in order that the Exchanging Party may effectuate such an exchange; provided, however, that with respect to such Exchange (a) all additional costs, fees and expenses related thereto shall be the sole responsibility of, and borne by, the Exchanging Party; (b) the Non-Exchanging Party shall incur no additional liability as a result of such exchange; (c) the contemplated exchange shall not delay any of the time periods or other obligations of the Exchanging Party hereby, and without limiting the foregoing, the scheduled date for Closing shall not be delayed or adversely affected by reason of the Exchange; (d) the accomplishment of the Exchange shall not be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to the Exchanging Party's obligations under the Agreement; and (e) the Non-Exchanging Party shall not be required to hold title to any land other than the Property for purposes of the Exchange. The Exchanging Party agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Non-Exchanging Party harmless from any and all liability, damage or cost, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees that may result from Non-Exchanging Party's cooperation with the Exchange. The Non-Exchanging Party shall not, by reason of the Exchange, (i) have its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any representations, warranties and covenants made by the Exchanging Party in this Agreement (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller), or in any of the closing documents (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller) contemplated hereby, adversely affected or diminished in any manner, or (ii) be responsible for compliance with or deemed to have warranted to the Exchanging Party that the Exchange complies with Section 1031 of the Code.

23.Broker’s Commissions. Buyer and Seller each hereby represent that, except for the Broker listed herein, there are no other brokers involved or that have a right to proceeds in this transaction. Seller shall be responsible for payment of commissions to the Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement executed by Seller. Seller and Buyer each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees at both trial and appellate levels) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder's fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party (except that Buyer shall have no obligations hereunder with respect to any claim by Broker). The representations, warranties and indemnity obligations contained in this Section 23 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

24.Assignment. This Agreement may be not assigned by Buyer, and any assignment or attempted assignment by Buyer shall constitute a default by Buyer hereunder and shall be null and void, provided, however, Buyer may assign this Agreement to an affiliate of Buyer who is either controlled by or under common control with Buyer, without Seller’s consent, provided further that Buyer shall remain primarily obligated hereunder notwithstanding such assignment. If Buyer desires to assign this Agreement as aforesaid, then, upon the request of Seller, the parties shall tear up this Agreement and execute an identical written agreement, save for the fact that such assignee shall be named the “Buyer” thereon, in lieu hereof. This Section 24 shall survive the Closing Date and the delivery of the Deed.

25.Attorneys’ Fees. In any action between Buyer and Seller as a result of failure to perform or a default under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party, and the other party shall pay to the prevailing party, the prevailing party’s attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs incurred in such action. This Section 25 shall survive the Closing Date and the delivery of the Deed.

26.Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to each of Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations hereunder.

14




27.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become a binding agreement when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party. Signatures on this Agreement which are transmitted by electronically shall be valid for all purposes, however any party shall deliver an original signature on this Agreement to the other party upon request.

28.Anti-Terrorism. Neither Buyer or Seller, nor any of their affiliates, are in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law (as hereinafter defined) or engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. “Anti-Terrorism Laws” shall mean any laws relating to terrorism or money laundering, including: Executive Order No. 13224; the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56, as the same has been, or may hereafter be, renewed, extended, amended or replaced; the applicable laws comprising or implementing the Bank Secrecy Act; and the applicable laws administered by the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (as any of the foregoing may from time to time be amended, renewed, extended, or replaced).

29.
Confidentiality.

(a)Buyer agrees that neither it nor Buyer’s Representatives shall at any time or in any manner, either directly or indirectly, divulge, disclose or communicate to any person, entity or association any other knowledge or information acquired by Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives from Seller or by Buyer’s own inspections and investigations, other than matters that were in the public domain at the time of receipt by Buyer, provided that Buyer may disclose such terms of this Agreement and its reports, studies, documents and other matters generated by it as Buyer deems necessary or desirable to Buyer’s attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, investors and lenders, in connection with Buyer’s investigation of the Property and/or purchase of the Property, provided that the parties to whom such information is disclosed are informed of the confidential nature thereof and agree to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)Buyer acknowledges that damages alone may be an inadequate remedy for any breach by it or Buyer’s Representatives of the terms of this Section 29 and agrees that, in addition to any other remedies that Seller may have, Seller shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction against any breach of this Section 29.
