WHEREAS, Owner Operating Partnership directly owns, or owns through its Subsidiaries, fee simple interests or leasehold interests (as lessee) in the properties set forth in Exhibit B annexed hereto (each an "Option Property" and collectively, the "Option Properties"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to (i) that certain Contribution Agreement (as amended, modified and supplemented from time to time, the "Contribution Agreement") of even date herewith between Owner, Company and REIT, and (ii) that certain Sale Agreement (as amended, modified and supplemented from time to time, the "Sale Agreement") dated as of August 11, 2005, between Owner, Company and REIT, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the parties agreed that Owner would agree to grant to Company an option to acquire the Option Properties upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. (All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given such terms in the Contribution Agreement and if not contained therein, the Sale Agreement). NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows: Section 1. Grant of Option. (a) Subject to Section 12 hereof, Owner hereby grants to Company the option (the "Option") to purchase any Option Property (excluding personalty and artwork, if any) for the amount as set forth in Section 4 below; provided, however, that as to (i) the 100 Campus Drive, 104 Campus Drive and 115 Campus Drive Option Properties, the Option shall be for the managing member's approximately 97% controlling interest in RM Square, LLC, the owner of said three (3) properties, which is subject to an carried interest to the minority partner after certain returns have been achieved, (ii) the 225 Broadhollow Road Option Property, the Option shall be contingent upon Owner or one of its affiliates exercising its option to purchase 225 Broadhollow Road and is subject to Company assuming the tax protection obligations of the Owner or such affiliate with respect to such Option Property, (iii) the 520 White Plains Road Option Property, the Option shall be subject to Company assuming the tax protection obligations of the Owner or such affiliate with respect to such Option Property or (iv) the 51 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard Option Property, the Option shall be effectuated by either the termination of that certain Sublease Agreement dated as of the date hereof entered into by and between RA 55 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard LLC and Owner Operating Partnership (the "Sublease") or the assignment of the Sublease to the Company or its designee. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, other properties directly owned by Owner Operating Partnership, or owned through its Subsidiaries, in fee simple or by leasehold (as lessee) may become an Option Property pursuant to the Contribution Agreement and/or the Sale Agreement, and current or future Option Properties may become properties contributed or sold under the Contribution Agreement or Sale Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to such Contribution Agreement or Sale Agreement. (c) Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, no Option shall be effective as to any Option Property, if at the time of exercise of such Option, the exercise of the Option or sale of such Option Property shall cause Owner to be in violation of any of its covenants relating to its existing secured or unsecured indebtedness including those covenants imposed by nationally recognized rating agencies in connection with Owner's investment grade rating. Any such Option Property shall remain an Option Property for a future exercise of an Option during the Option Period (as defined hereinbelow), provided such covenants are not then violated. Section 2. Option Period. The Option may be exercised at any time between January 1, 2006 and January 1, 2008 (the "Option Period"), provided that if not exercised on or before January 1, 2008, all rights and privileges hereunder shall expire; provided, however, that Company may only exercise one (1) Option each calendar quarter, except the last two (2) calendar quarters of the Option Period in which Company may exercise any number of Options. During the Option Period, Owner agrees to own and operate each Option Property consistent with its past practices in owning and operating such Option Property and/or similar properties (including, without limitation, the ability to incur debt on market terms and enter into leases, renewals, expansions and/or amendments on market terms). During the term of this Agreement, Owner shall have the right to make (i) capital improvements or capital repairs required by law, (ii) capital improvements or capital repairs which may be required in the event of an emergency to preserve the Option Property, or (iii) capital improvements or capital repairs required in accordance with the terms and provisions of a lease (collectively, "Required Work") without Company's prior approval. In the event that Owner deems it necessary to perform Required Work, Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Company of such Required Work as soon as practicable. In the event Owner elects to perform any Required Work, then the cost of such Required Work shall be apportioned between Owner and Company in accordance with Section 5 below. Additionally, in the event Owner elects to enter into any leases, any (i) brokerage commissions, (ii) tenant improvement allowances, (iii) abated rent and/or (iv) other tenant inducement costs of whatever nature shall be apportioned between Owner and Company in accordance with the amount of lease term occurring pre- and post-Option Closing. Section 3. Exercise of Option. In order to exercise the Option, Company must deliver a written notice (the "Option Notice") to Owner within the time period set forth in Section 2 hereof, indicating that it has irrevocably exercised the Option. The Option Notice shall be addressed in accordance with Section 11 hereof and shall be signed by Company. Subject to the last sentence of Section 4, upon giving the Option Notice, both parties shall, in good faith, negotiate and execute a contract of sale on market terms consistent with purchase and sale - 2 - agreements in the New York metropolitan tri-state area (such market terms to be decided by expedited arbitration, as set forth in Section 14 herein, in the event no agreement can be reached between the parties). Section 4. Purchase Price. The purchase price for each Option Property shall be the fair market value of the Option Property, as determined based upon the greater of (i) the appraised value of the Option Property in question or (ii) a written all cash bona fide third party offer to purchase said Option Property dated within 120 days of the date of delivery of the Option Notice that the owner of the Option Property would be willing to accept and close, if any (the "Purchase Price"); provided, however, that the Purchase Price shall not be less than the amount of the aggregate debt secured solely by the specific Option Property subject to the Option. The appraisal referred to in clause (i) of the foregoing sentence shall be paid for by Company and shall be performed by an appraiser mutually acceptable to both Owner and Company. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Owner shall have the right to postpone for six (6) months the date of fair market valuation and the date of Option Closing (defined below); provided that in the event Owner postpones the date of fair market valuation and the date of the Option Closing, Company shall have the right to rescind the Option Notice originally delivered in connection therewith. In the event Owner exercises its right to postpone the date of fair market valuation and the date of the Option Closing, whether or not Company rescinds the Option Notice originally delivered in connection therewith, Company shall have the right to exercise another Option in such quarter. Section 5. Option Closing. Subject to the last sentence of Section 4, the acquisition of any Option Property for which the Option has been exercised shall be consummated (the "Option Closing") within thirty (30) calendar days after the exercise of the Option, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, and shall be closed on an "all cash" basis, subject to customary closing adjustments and prorations and with marketable title subject only to those matters which are customary or as may be necessary to own and operate the Option Property. Owner shall be under no obligation to deliver marketable title. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall pay any transfer taxes due in connection with the exercise of an Option. At the Option Closing, Company shall reimburse Owner for Required Work based upon the number of days of the projected useful life of such Required Work that Owner owned the Option Property after each of the Required Work were made, on the one hand, with Company responsible for the remainder of the projected useful life of each of such Required Work, on the other. Section 6. Closing Documents. At the Option Closing, upon receipt of the Purchase Price, Owner shall transfer such Option Property or Option Properties (which may, at Owner's option, be accomplished through a transfer of the interest in the applicable Option Property owner, with customary representations and warranties), as applicable, to Company, together with such other documents as counsel for Owner and Company shall reasonably require to accomplish the purposes of the exercise of the Option. Section 7. Debt Assumption. To the extent that any Option Property is encumbered at the time of the exercise by Company of the Option by debt which is not due upon sale, Owner shall have no obligation to pay off or deliver such Option Property free of such liens and encumbrances; provided, however that any monetary liens or encumbrances shall be a buyer's - 3 - credit against the Purchase Price of the Option Property. As a condition to Owner's obligation to close, Owner shall be released from any such debt on or prior to the Option Closing. In the event that the existing lender charges an assumption fee and/or legal fees in connection with the sale, same shall be a buyer's credit at the closing. Section 8. Failure of Owner or the Company to Perform. (a) If, prior to any Option Closing, Company shall materially default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and such default or breach shall remain uncured for ten (10) days after Company receives written notice thereof from Owner, then Owner, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may either (i) commence an action for specific performance of such obligations (subject to all of the terms of this Agreement); or (ii) terminate this Agreement and seek liquidated damages hereunder from Company in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the applicable Purchase Price. If Owner elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(a), this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except with respect to those provisions which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. (b) If, prior to any Option Closing, Owner shall materially default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and such default shall remain uncured for ten (10) days after Owner receives written notice thereof from Company, then Company, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may either (i) commence an action for specific performance of such obligations (subject to all of the terms of this Agreement); or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Company elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(b), this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except with respect to those provisions which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. Section 9. Condemnation and Casualty. (a) If, prior to an Option Closing, all or any portion of any Option Property or Option Properties are permanently taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending condemnation proceeding that has not been reduced to judgment), Owner shall notify Company of such fact. Owner shall have no obligation to provide an alternate Option Property or Option Properties and Owner shall have no other liability or obligation to Company with respect to such Option Property or Option Properties. If Company elects to proceed with the Option Closing of any Option Property or Option Properties subject to a partial permanent taking by eminent domain (other than the portion so taken), then upon the exercise of its Option, Company shall accept title to such Option Property or Option Properties in their existing condition, and pursuant to Section 4, at the appraised fair market value following such partial permanent taking by eminent domain and Owner shall not be required to assign or turn over to the Company any amounts awarded or to be awarded as a result of the taking of such Option Property or Option Properties. In the event that all or any portion of any Option Property or Option Properties are temporarily taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending condemnation proceeding that has not been reduced to judgment), the Option Period shall be extended with respect to such Option Property or Option Properties until such time that the temporary condemnation ceases to affect such Option Property or Option Properties. (b) If, prior to the Option Closing, all or any portion of any of the Option Properties are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Owner shall not have any obligation to provide an alternate Option Property or Option Properties or to repair or rebuild any such Option Property or Option Properties. However, if all or any portion of any Option Property or Option - 4 - Properties are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, and Owner intends to and does repair and rebuild such Option Property or Option Properties, the Option Period shall be extended until such time that the Option Property or Option Properties is repaired and rebuilt; provided, however, that any costs for such repair and rebuilding work not covered by insurance (including deductibles funded by Owner or its affiliates) are paid to Owner at the Option Closing (if the Option is exercised) as additional consideration. Section 10. Right of First Refusal to Purchase. During the Option Period, in the event Owner receives a written all cash bona fide offer from a third party for the purchase of any Option Property and the Owner is willing to accept and close, Company shall have a right of first refusal to purchase at the same purchase price and other terms contained in such offer, such closing to occur within thirty (30) days. In the event that Company elects to not exercise such right of first refusal to purchase such Option Property, Owner may sell the Option Property to such third party or to any other person or party on terms no less beneficial to Company than those contained in the offer, provided the sale closes within 120 days from the date on which Company elects not to exercise such right.
