3. Closing. Closing (the "Closing") hereunder shall take place on or before December 21, 2015, provided, however, the Closing Date may be extended up to fifteen (15) days if the conditions of Section 9(b) and/or Section 9(c) are not satisfied, and in the event of such extension, Closing shall be two (2) business days after satisfaction of such conditions but not before January 4, 2016 or later than January 15, 2016 (the “Closing Date”). Closing shall be completed through an escrow (the “Escrow”) established with the Title Company (as defined below). Upon the creation of the Escrow, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the transfer and conveyance of the Property, the payment of funds and the delivery of the documents required to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be made through the Escrow. The parties intend that the Closing take place through the Escrow and that the parties need not be physically present.
4. Condition of Title; Survey.
(a) Title. Title to the Property shall be free and clear of all liens, restrictions, easements, encumbrances and other title objections except for the Permitted Exceptions (as defined below). Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, within ten (10) days after the date on which Purchaser receives a fully executed copy of this Agreement from Seller (the date of such receipt being the “Effective Date”), a commitment to insure title (“Commitment”) for the Real Property from Chicago Title Insurance Company, Atlanta Office (“Title Company”), with copies of all exceptions. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, a list of all title objections and exceptions disclosed in the Commitment which are not acceptable to Purchaser (“Title Defects”); all other title exceptions shown on the Commitment and not identified as unacceptable by Purchaser are herein referred to as the “Permitted Exceptions.” Seller shall have five (5) business days following receipt of the Objection Notice to notify Purchaser of which title objections Seller is willing to cure (provided that Seller shall be obligated to pay from the Purchase Price all Curable Title Exceptions (as defined below) of an ascertainable amount not exceeding the Purchase Price). If Seller fails to deliver such notice within such five (5) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have declined to cure any title objections. Upon receipt of Seller’s notice of which title objections Seller is willing to cure, and if Seller is not willing to cure all title objections (or if Seller fails to deliver timely notice, in which case Seller shall be deemed to not be willing to cure any title objections other than the payment of liens described above), Purchaser shall have the option, by notice to Seller within five (5) days after expiration of such five (5) business day period, to either accept such title to the Property as Seller is willing to provide, in which case all title objections that Seller is unwilling to cure shall become Permitted Exceptions, or to terminate this Agreement and have the Deposit and all interest thereon returned to Purchaser. The following comprise the “Curable Title Exceptions”: (i) financing liens, mechanics’and materialmen’s liens caused by Seller or its agents, (ii) tax liens relating to the Property, (iii) liens or other title exceptions resulting solely from acts of Seller or its agents occurring on or after the Effective Date or (iv) other liens or monetary encumbrances which secure
2
other monetary obligations which in the aggregate do not exceed the Purchase Price. In the event the Title Company amends or updates the Commitment after the initial Commitment to add additional exceptions or requirements (each, a “Commitment Update”), Purchaser shall furnish Seller with a written statement of objections to any matter first raised in a Commitment Update within three (3) business days after its receipt of such Commitment Update (each, a “Commitment Update Review Period”), and the timing for responses and disposition of such new matters noted in the updated objection notice shall be as set forth above.
(b) Survey. Purchaser, at Purchaser’s expense, may obtain an updated ALTA survey of the Real Property (certified to Purchaser and to Seller) prior to the expiration of the Investigation Period and provide a copy to Seller. If the survey reveals any exceptions to title not disclosed by the Commitment or other survey-related defects, Purchaser shall forward a list of such additional title exceptions or defects to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of the survey, or any update thereof, and Seller shall have ten (10) business days following receipt of Purchaser's list of objections to notify Purchaser of Seller’s willingness (in its sole discretion) to cure such objections. Failure by Seller to notify Purchaser within such ten (10) business day period of Seller’s willingness to cure such objections shall be deemed a notification from Seller that it is willing to cure such objections. If Seller delivers timely notice that Seller is unwilling or unable to cure such objections, Purchaser, by notice to Seller within five (5) days after receipt of Seller’s notification, shall have the option to either accept title to the Real Property in question subject to such additional objections or to terminate this Agreement and have the Deposit and all interest thereon returned to Purchaser.
5. Document Deliveries. Seller shall make available to Purchaser, via an online ‘war room’ or in the offices of Seller’s property manager, such documents related to the Property as are listed on Exhibit D hereto and are either in Seller’s direct possession or within Seller’s reasonable control (collectively, the "Due Diligence Materials").

The date on which Seller confirms in writing to Purchaser that all of the Due Diligence Materials in Seller’s possession or control are available via the ‘war room,’ or are otherwise available for copying at Purchaser’s expense at the Property or the Property manager’s office, is hereafter called the “Availability Date”.

10
12. Eminent Domain. If, prior to Closing, the Property or any part thereof becomes subject to a condemnation proceeding, Seller, immediately upon learning of same, shall give written notice to Purchaser. Thereafter, Purchaser shall have a period of fifteen (15) days within which to elect, by written notice to Seller, to terminate this Agreement. Upon such termination, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser, and this Agreement shall thereupon be canceled and of no further force or effect and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any further obligation or liability hereunder. If no such election is timely made, Purchaser shall be considered to have waived its termination right under this Section and shall complete Closing hereunder without adjustment to the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser the right to receive all proceeds of any condemnation award.
13. | Risk of Loss. |
(a) Loss Exceeding $500,000. In the event that, prior to Closing, the Property is damaged and (i) Tenant under the Lease has the right to terminate because of such casualty and Tenant does not waive such right, (ii) there is an uninsured casualty or underinsured casualty, or Seller’s insurance company fails to acknowledge Purchaser in writing as Seller’s assignee of insurance proceeds or claims (which must also include rent loss), (iii) access to the building located on the Property is reduced or hindered, or (iv) the Property is materially damaged by a fire or other casualty which cannot, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, be repaired and restored prior to the Closing date set forth in Section 3 above, and for which Seller estimates that repair costs will exceed $500,000, Purchaser shall have the right, by notice to Seller given within fifteen (15) days after the date of the notice from Seller of such casualty or proceedings, to terminate this Agreement and have the Deposit refunded to Purchaser. Failure by Purchaser to give such termination notice within such 15-day period shall be deemed a waiver of the right to terminate, and in such event, the parties shall complete Closing, and Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at Closing the proceeds (net of amounts theretofore disbursed and used to pay for restoration) of Seller’s insurance policies, and all of Seller’s unpaid claims and rights in connection with any such losses shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing without in any manner affecting the Purchase Price, Seller shall deliver a consent to such assignment from the insurer, and Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible and/or co-insurance under any such policy and the estimated amount of loss of rent from the existing Tenant expected to be suffered as a result of such damage.
(b) Loss Not Exceeding $500,000. For any damage estimated by Seller in good faith to cost less than $500,000.00 to repair, where (ii) Tenant under the Lease does not have the right to terminate because of such casualty, (iii) access to the building located on the Property is not reduced or hindered, or (iv) there is no uninsured casualty or underinsured casualty, and where Seller’s insurance company acknowledges Purchaser in writing as Seller’s assignee of insurance proceeds or claims (which must also include rent loss), then Seller shall so notify Purchaser and the transaction shall close as scheduled, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by a sum equal to the estimated cost of such repairs and estimated rent loss, the transactions contemplated herein shall be consummated without further reduction of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall receive such insurance proceeds as are paid on the claim of loss.
14. Brokers. Seller and Purchaser each warrants and represents to the other that each has had no dealings, negotiations or communications with any brokers or other intermediaries in connection with the sale of the Property except Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P., which shall be paid a commission by Seller pursuant to a separate agreement. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant to each other that they have not dealt with any other broker or finder in connection with the transaction which is the subject matter of this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser each agree to indemnify and hold harmless the other from and on account of any claims, demands, damages or expenses, including but without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, which the indemnitee may suffer or incur on account of any claims or demands
11
for broker's commission or finder's fee arising out of or based upon the acts of the indemnitor with respect to the transaction which is the subject matter of this Agreement. The foregoing indemnities shall survive the Closing and any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
15. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing addressed as follows:

16. Purchaser Default; Seller Default.
12
(a) Purchaser Default. If this transaction fails to close as a result of a default by Purchaser with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement, and such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after Seller notifies Purchaser in writing of such default (provided, however, that no such 10-day cure period shall apply to Purchaser’s failure to complete Closing on the date set forth in Section 3), the Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive and retain the Deposit as liquidated damages. Termination of this Agreement and retention of the Deposit shall be Seller's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, this Agreement shall thereupon become null and void, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, it being understood and agreed that Seller is hereby releasing and/or waiving any right it might have either to specifically enforce this Agreement or to sue for damages. Seller has agreed to this liquidated damage provision because of the difficulty of ascertaining Seller’s actual damages given the uncertainties of the real estate market, fluctuating property values and differences of opinion with respect to such matters.
(b) Seller Default. If, prior to Closing, Seller is in default of any of its material representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement, and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice from Purchaser to Seller (provided, however, that no such 10-day cure period shall apply to Seller’s failure to complete Closing on the date set forth in Section 3), then Purchaser shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and receive from Seller an amount equal to Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties and related to this transaction, not to exceed $75,000.00, or (ii) to pursue an action for specific performance, Purchaser hereby waiving any right to seek damages; provided however that in the case of a willful default by Seller which renders specific performance impossible, Purchaser may sue Seller for reasonable damages.
17. Escrow.
(a) Escrow Agent Obligations. Escrow Agent is not a party to, and is not bound by, or charged with notice of any agreement out of which the Escrow of the Deposit may arise, other than the Escrow provisions of this Agreement, to wit: this Section 17 in its entirety and Section 2 in its entirety. Escrow Agent shall hold all deposits in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and any other escrow agreement executed by Escrow Agent, Seller and Purchaser. Escrow Agent shall comply with all reporting requirements of Section 6045 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against Escrow Agent.
(b) Reliance. Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any writing or instrument or signature which it, in good faith, believes, and any statement or assertion contained in such writing or instrument, and may assume that any person purporting to give any writing, notice, advice or instrument in connection with the provisions of this Agreement has been duly authorized to do so. Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any manner for the sufficiency or correctness as to form, manner and execution, or validity of any instrument deposited in escrow, nor as to the identity, authority, or right of any person executing the same, and Escrow Agent’s duties under this Agreement shall be limited to those provided in this Agreement.
(c) Liability of Escrow Agent. The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or
13
Purchaser resulting from the Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent’s scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.
(d) Disputes. If the parties (including Escrow Agent) shall be in disagreement about the interpretation of this Agreement, or about their respective rights and obligations, or the propriety of any action contemplated by Escrow Agent, or the application of the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit until the receipt of written instructions from both Purchaser and Seller or a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, in any such event, Escrow Agent may, but shall not be required to, file an action in interpleader to resolve the disagreement. Escrow Agent shall be indemnified for all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees in its capacity as Escrow Agent in connection with any such interpleader action and shall be fully protected in suspending all or part of its activities under this Agreement until a final judgment in the interpleader action is received.
(e) Counsel. Escrow Agent may consult with counsel of its own choice and have full and complete authorization and protection in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. Escrow Agent shall otherwise not be liable for any mistakes of fact or errors of judgment, or for any acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by its negligence or willful misconduct.
18. Miscellaneous.
(a) Headings. The headings and captions in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any of the provisions hereof.
(b) Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as expressly set forth herein. Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement, without Landlord’s consent, and may take title to the Property in an assignee that is either controlled or co-controlled by, or under common control or co-control with Purchaser, or Purchaser may take title to the Property in the name of a nominee or assignee, or in the name of one or more of the institutional investors for which Purchaser or one of its affiliates is then acting as investment manager (collectively, a “Permitted Assignee”), provided that (i) Purchaser delivers to Seller written notice of its intention to do so at least five (5) business days prior to Closing, which notice shall include the legal name and structure of the proposed assignee, (ii) Purchaser and the proposed assignee shall execute an assignment and assumption of this Agreement pursuant to which the proposed assignee agrees to assume the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, (iii) in no event shall any assignment of this Agreement release or discharge Purchaser from any liability or obligation hereunder, and (iv) Seller is notified in writing of the names of all individuals who are executing documents at Closing on behalf of Purchaser, and none of such signatories appear on Seller’s terrorist watch list.
(c) Authority. The representatives and officers who have executed this Agreement on behalf of Seller and/or Purchaser hereby represent, warrant and confirm that they have the authority to execute this Agreement.
14
(d) Confidentiality. All information regarding the Property supplied by Seller or obtained by Purchaser through its studies and investigations shall be held in strict confidence by Purchaser, and shall be returned to Seller if Closing fails to occur hereunder for any reason; provided, however that Purchaser shall be permitted to make any disclosures required by law.
(e) Integration. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Seller and the Purchaser and there are no other terms, obligations, covenants, representations, statements or conditions, oral or otherwise of any kind whatsoever concerning this sale. Furthermore, this Agreement shall not be altered, amended, changed or modified except in writing executed by the parties hereto. If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
(f) Business Days. If any period of time ends, or if any act is required to be performed, on a day other than a business day, then the applicable period of time shall be deemed to expire, or the date required for the performance of the appropriate obligation shall be deemed to be extended, on the next business day following the applicable date of performance.
(g) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Virginia. Neither party shall record this Agreement.
(h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(i) Time of Essence. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
(j) Attorney Fees. In the event either party seeks to enforce this Agreement, the substantially prevailing party in any such enforcement action shall be entitled to recover from the breaching party its reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with any such efforts to enforce this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller hereby consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the United States federal court for the State of Virginia in connection with any dispute hereunder. Should such court for any reason decline to accept jurisdiction, then the parties consent to the jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of Virginia.
(k) Waiver of Jury Trial. PURCHASER AND SELLER DO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW THEIR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, OR UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ANY ACTIONS OF EITHER PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED IN ANY MANNER WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIMS OR DEFENSES ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE). THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SELLER TO ENTER INTO AND ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE DOCUMENTS DELIVERED BY PURCHASER AT CLOSING.
(l) Post-Closing Audit. Pursuant to Section 18(b) above, a Permitted Assignee of Purchaser may include a publicly registered real estate investment trust, and therefore Seller further agrees
15
to make the materials described on Exhibit D-1 relating to the Property available for inspection and audit by Purchaser or its agents (the covenants of Seller described by this sentence shall survive the Closing). At Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the Closing Representation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L. Purchaser may also review and make copies of any of Seller's files, books and records relating to the Property. Purchaser shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs associated with this audit. Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no out of pocket cost to Seller) with Purchaser’s auditor in the conduct of such audit but shall not be obligated to provide any letter or certification to Purchaser’s auditor. In addition, Seller agrees to provide to Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the Property (for the past three (3) years) (with the names of parties having an equity interest in Seller redacted), including (without limitation) income and balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing, to the extent in Seller’s possession or control. Seller shall furnish to Purchaser such financial and other information as may be reasonably required by Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser to make any required filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or other governmental authority. Seller shall maintain its records for use under this Section 18(l) for a period of not less than one (1) year after the Closing. This Section shall expressly survive Closing.

IRS ESCROW AGREEMENT
Escrow No. [ ] Sterling, VA
______________________, 2015
SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA ("SUN LIFE") deposits with Chicago Title Insurance Company ("COMPANY"), as Escrow Agent, the items set forth in Schedule A, to be held by said Escrow Agent subject to the terms hereof as shown below as Schedule B and in the General Provisions which are attached hereto and incorporated herein:
SCHEDULE A: DEPOSITS
[__________________________________________ Dollars ($____________)]
SCHEDULE B: SPECIAL PROVISIONS
NOTE: This Escrow Agreement is for the purpose of awaiting a decision by the Internal Revenue Service regarding an exemption request for Schedule A's deposit pursuant to Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code.
1. Prior to COMPANY agreeing to enter into this agreement, SUN LIFE will deliver to COMPANY a copy of its Application for Withholding Certificate and Guaranty to pay any tax to the Internal Revenue Service relating to this sale. That Application calculates SUN LIFE'S estimated tax liability relating to this sale as [$0.00] based on a taxable gain on the sale. Notwithstanding that calculation, this escrow equals Ten Percent (10%) of the contract price pending receipt of the Withholding Certificate.
2. IT IS SPECIFICALLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES HERETO THAT COMPANY IS IN NO WAY LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR:
A. THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE EXEMPTION REQUEST; or
B. WHETHER THE EXEMPTION REQUEST HAS BEEN PROPERLY FILED WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE BY THE DATE OF TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY.
3. Upon COMPANY's receipt of a written certificate from the Internal Revenue Service regarding their decision on the exemption request, COMPANY is to either:
A. Remit the amount set forth on the certificate to the Internal Revenue Service at the Internal Revenue Service Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; or
B. If the amount owing on the Internal Revenue Service certificate is zero, all of Schedule A's deposits, plus accrued interest, are to be paid to SUN LIFE:
SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA
U.S. REAL ESTATE ‑ SC 1309
ONE SUN LIFE EXECUTIVE PARK
WELLESLEY HILLS, MA 02481
4. Due to the Internal Revenue Service provision that funds must be remitted to them within twenty
25
(20) days of the date of their certificate, COMPANY is to remit any funds due to the Internal Revenue Service in a timely manner. Because COMPANY cannot remit funds without the certificate, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT WHOMEVER RECEIVES SAID CERTIFICATE FROM THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE IMMEDIATELY FORWARD IT, OR A COPY TO:
SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA
U.S. REAL ESTATE ‑ SC 1309
ONE SUN LIFE EXECUTIVE PARK
WELLESLEY HILLS, MA 02481
5. If COMPANY receives the written certificate so late that it is impossible to comply with the twenty (20) day provision, then COMPANY is to still pay the amount set forth on the certificate to the Internal Revenue Service, but may retain any balance of Schedule A's deposit, and accrued interest, for the purpose of paying any delinquency penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. IT IS SPECIFICALLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES HERETO THAT COMPANY IS IN NO WAY LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SHORTAGES IN ANY AMOUNTS OWING TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.
6. If COMPANY is able to forward to the Internal Revenue Service the amount set forth on the certificate within the requisite 20‑day period, then any balance of Schedule A's deposit and any accrued interest will be forwarded to the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada at:
SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA
U.S. REAL ESTATE ‑ SC 1309
ONE SUN LIFE EXECUTIVE PARK
WELLESLEY HILLS, MA 02481
7. If by ____________________, COMPANY has received no written certificate from the Internal Revenue Service, COMPANY may pay Schedule A's deposit and any accrued interest to the Internal Revenue Service after giving written notice to SUN LIFE. IT IS SPECIFICALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES HERETO THAT COMPANY IS IN NO WAY LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SHORTAGES IN ANY AMOUNTS OWING TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.
8. The fee paid to COMPANY in consideration of performing this Escrow is $0.00.
COMPANY'S RESPONSIBILITY IN REGARDS TO SECTION 1445 AND THIS ESCROW IS SOLELY TO PERFORM CLERICAL TASKS. IN THAT REGARD, COMPANY HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO JUDGE THE ACCURACY OF ANY FORMS OR MONIES IT HAS BEEN INSTRUCTED TO TRANSMIT. FURTHER, COMPANY HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY REGARDING THE COLLECTION OR PAYMENT OF SECTION 1445'S WITHHOLDING TAX OR ANY PENALTIES, EXCEPT FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE CLERICAL TASKS OUTLINED IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
SECTION 1445 IS A LENGTHY, PRECISE, AND COMPLICATED REGULATION. IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CONTACT LEGAL OR TAX COUNSEL OR THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE REGARDING SPECIFIC ADVICE ON THE REGULATION AND POSSIBLE EXPOSURE.

THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT, ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LEASE ASSIGNMENT, ESTOPPEL, ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made December _____, 2015 by and between RPT LOUDOUN GATEWAY I, LLC , a Delaware limited liability company ("Mortgagor"), ORBITAL ATK, inc., a Delaware corporation ("Tenant") and Wells fargo bank, national association, as Administrative Agent (collectively with its successors, assigns, affiliates and participants, "Agent") for certain lenders (the “Lenders”).
R E C I T A L S
A. | Pursuant to the terms and provisions of an Office Lease dated September 30, 2011 (the "Lease"), Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (predecessor in interest to Mortgagor) granted to Tenant a leasehold estate in and to a portion of the property described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (which property, together with all improvements now or hereafter located on the property, is defined as the "Property"). |
B. | Mortgagor has executed, or proposes to execute, that certain [Deed of Trust With Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing] (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security Instrument") securing, in part, and among other things, one or more promissory notes (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the "Note") in the original maximum aggregate principal amount of SEVENTY-FIVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($75,000,000.00), in favor of Lenders ("Loan"). The Security Instrument is to be recorded concurrently herewith. |
C. | The Lease does not contain provisions and terms granting Tenant an option to purchase the Property. |
33
D. | As a condition to Lenders making the Loan secured by the Security Instrument, Lenders require that the Security Instrument be unconditionally and at all times remain a lien on the Property, prior and superior to all the rights of Tenant under the Lease and that the Tenant specifically and unconditionally subordinate the Lease to the lien of the Security Instrument. |
E. | Mortgagor and Tenant have agreed to the subordination, attornment and other agreements herein in favor of Agent. |
NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration and to induce Lenders to make the Loan, Mortgagor and Tenant hereby agree for the benefit of Agent as follows:
1. SUBORDINATION. Mortgagor and Tenant hereby agree that:
1.1 Prior Lien. The Security Instrument securing the Note in favor of Agent, and any modifications, renewals or extensions thereof (including, without limitation, any modifications, renewals or extensions with respect to any additional advances made subject to the Security Instrument), shall unconditionally be and at all times remain a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease;
1.2 Subordination. Lenders would not make the Loan without this agreement to subordinate; and
1.3 Whole Agreement. This Agreement shall be the whole agreement and only agreement with regard to the subordination of the Lease to the lien of the Security Instrument and shall supersede and cancel, but only insofar as would affect the priority between the Security Instrument and the Lease, any prior agreements as to such subordination, including, without limitation, those provisions, if any, contained in the Lease which provide for the subordination of the Lease to a deed or deeds of trust or to a mortgage or mortgages.
AND FURTHER, Tenant individually declares, agrees and acknowledges for the benefit of Agent, that:
1.4 Use of Proceeds. Agent, in making disbursements pursuant to the Note, the Security Instrument or any loan agreements with respect to the Property, is under no obligation or duty to, nor has Agent represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom Agent disburses such proceeds, and any application or use of such proceeds for purposes other than those provided for in such agreement or agreements shall not defeat this agreement to subordinate in whole or in part; and
1.5 Waiver, Relinquishment and Subordination. Tenant intentionally and unconditionally waives, relinquishes and subordinates all of Tenant's right, title and interest in and to the Property to the lien of the Security Instrument and understands that in reliance upon, and in consideration of, this waiver, relinquishment and subordination, specific loans and advances are being and will be made by Agent and, as part and parcel thereof, specific monetary and other obligations are being and will
34
be entered into which would not be made or entered into but for said reliance upon this waiver, relinquishment and subordination.
2. ASSIGNMENT. Tenant acknowledges and consents to the assignment of the Lease by Mortgagor in favor of Agent.
3. ESTOPPEL. Tenant acknowledges and represents that:

3.2 No Prepaid Rent. No deposits or prepayments of rent have been made in connection with the Lease, except as follows (if none, state "None"): NONE
3.3 No Default.

3.4 Lease Effective. The Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Tenant and, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Lease is in full force and effect, the obligations of Tenant thereunder are valid and binding and there have been no further amendments, modifications or additions to the Lease, written or oral; and
3.5 No Broker Liens. Neither Tenant nor Mortgagor has incurred any fee or commission with any real estate broker which would give rise to any lien right under state or local law, except as follows (if none, state "None"): NONE
4. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS. Tenant covenants and agrees that, during all such times as Agent is the Beneficiary under the Security Instrument:
4.1 Modification, Termination and Cancellation. Tenant will not consent to any modification, amendment, termination or cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) without Agent's prior written consent and will not make any payment to Mortgagor in consideration of any modification, termination or cancellation of the Lease (in whole or in part) without Agent's prior written consent.
4.2 Notice of Default. Tenant will notify Agent in writing concurrently with any notice given to Mortgagor of any default by Mortgagor under the Lease, and Tenant agrees that Agent has the right (but not the obligation) to cure any breach or default specified in such notice within the time periods set forth below and Tenant will not declare a default of the Lease, as to Agent, if Agent cures such default within thirty (30) days from and after the expiration of the time period provided in the Lease for the cure thereof by Mortgagor ; provided, however, that if such default cannot with diligence be cured by Agent within such thirty (30) day period, the commencement of action by Agent within such thirty (30) day period to remedy the same shall be deemed sufficient so long as Agent pursues such cure with diligence.

4.4 Assignment of Rents.

5. ATTORNMENT. In the event of a foreclosure under the Security Instrument, Tenant agrees for the benefit of Agent (including for this purpose any transferee of Agent or any transferee of Mortgagor's title in and to the Property by Agent's exercise of the remedy of sale by foreclosure under the Security Instrument) as follows:

5.2 Continuation of Performance. Tenant shall be bound to Agent in accordance with all of the provisions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof, and Tenant hereby attorns to Agent as its landlord, such attornment to be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instrument immediately upon Agent succeeding to Mortgagor's interest in the Lease and giving written notice thereof to Tenant.
5.3 No Offset. Agent shall not be liable for, nor subject to, any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have by reason of any act or omission of Mortgagor under the Lease, nor for the return of any sums which Tenant may have paid to Mortgagor under the Lease as and for security deposits, advance rentals or otherwise, except to the extent that such sums are actually delivered by Mortgagor to Agent.
5.4 Subsequent Transfer. If Agent, by succeeding to the interest of Mortgagor under the Lease, should become obligated to perform the covenants of Mortgagor thereunder, then, upon any further transfer of Mortgagor's interest by Agent, all of such obligations shall terminate as to Agent.
5.5 Limitation on Agent’s Liability. Tenant agrees to look solely to Agent’s interest in the Property and the rent, income or proceeds derived therefrom for the recovery of any judgment against Agent, and in no event shall Agent or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents, representatives or employees ever be personally liable for any such obligation, liability or judgment.
5.6 No Representation, Warranties or Indemnities.

6. NON-DISTURBANCE. In the event of a foreclosure under the Security Instrument, so long as there shall then exist no breach, default, or event of default on the part of Tenant under the Lease, Agent agrees for itself and its successors and assigns that the leasehold interest of Tenant under the Lease shall not be extinguished or terminated by reason of such foreclosure, but rather the Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Agent shall recognize and accept Tenant as tenant under the Lease subject to the terms and provisions of the Lease except as modified by this Agreement.
