(b) The Seller, the Buyer and the Company will treat the sale of the Shares as a sale of equity interests in the Company for all tax purposes, and will report the sale of the Shares consistently with the foregoing for all tax purposes.

(ii)

the Deposit Escrow Agent will (A) release from the amounts delivered by the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(i) (Closing) above and the Deposit Escrow Funds, an amount equal to the Estimated Purchase Price to the Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Seller, (B) release an aggregate amount equal to the Closing Indebtedness to those Persons to whom the Closing Indebtedness is owed, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts specified in writing by the Seller, and (C) release an aggregate amount equal to the Company Transaction Expenses to those Persons to whom such expenses are owed, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts specified in writing by the Seller and in accordance with the Transaction Expense Invoices.

Section 2.4. Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) No later than one (1) Business Day prior to Closing, the Seller will prepare and deliver to the Buyer an estimated closing statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), which shall be attached hereto as Schedule 2.4(a), setting forth the Seller’s good faith estimates of the amounts of Closing Cash, Reserves, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Adjustment Amount, the Company Transaction Expenses (each of which shall be evidenced by a Transaction Expense Invoice) and of the Purchase Price based on the foregoing (the “Estimated Purchase Price”); provided, that, if the Closing has not occurred by 11:59 p.m. (Pacific Time) on April 25, 2016,

Seller will deliver the Estimated Closing Statement no later than 12:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on April 27, 2016 that assumes a Closing date of April 29, 2016, and Seller’s obligation under this Schedule 2.4(a) will be satisfied. The Estimated Closing Statement shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Buyer hereby acknowledges receipt of such schedules and data with respect to the Estimated Closing Statement and the Seller’s determination of the Estimated Purchase Price set forth therein and each component thereof as the Buyer has deemed reasonably necessary to support such amounts.

(b) The Buyer will deliver to the Seller, by no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, a closing statement setting forth the Buyer’s good faith calculations of the actual amounts of Closing Cash, Reserves, Closing Indebtedness and Closing Adjustment Amount and the adjusted Purchase Price based on the foregoing, together with such schedules and data with respect to the determination of each of the foregoing amounts as are reasonably necessary to support such amounts (the “Closing Statement”). If the Buyer fails to deliver the Closing Statement by the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller may prepare and deliver to the Buyer a Closing Statement. If the Seller does not deliver a Closing Statement to the Buyer within thirty (30) days after the deadline set forth in the first sentence of this Section 2.4(b) (Purchase Price Adjustment), then the Buyer and the Seller will be deemed to have accepted the Estimated Closing Statement in full and the Estimated Closing Statement will become final, binding and conclusive for all purposes under this Agreement.

(c) If either the Buyer or the Seller disagrees in whole or in part with the Closing Statement, then the disagreeing Party will deliver to the receiving Party, by no later than thirty (30) days after the date on which the receiving Party receives the Closing Statement, a written notice of disagreement setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”). If either the Buyer or the Seller fails to deliver a Notice of Disagreement by the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Parties will be deemed to have accepted the Closing Statement in full and the Closing Statement will become final, binding and conclusive for all purposes under this Agreement.

(d) If either the Buyer or the Seller timely delivers a Notice of Disagreement, the Buyer and the Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days, or such longer period as they may mutually agree, to resolve any disputed items. All disputed items agreed to during the foregoing period will become final, conclusive and binding on the Buyer, the Seller and the Company and will not be subject to further appeal. If, at the end of the foregoing period, there remain any unresolved disputed items, those unresolved disputed items will be referred to a nationally-recognized, U.S.-based accounting firm to be mutually agreed by the Buyer and the Seller (the “Accounting Firm”). The Buyer and the Seller will enter into reasonable and customary arrangements for the services to be rendered by the Accounting Firm under this paragraph, such services to be provided in the Accounting Firm’s capacity as an accounting expert and not an arbitrator. The Accounting Firm will be directed to determine as promptly as practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) days from the date on which the dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm), whether any of the Closing Cash, Closing Reserves, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Adjustment Amount or Purchase Price as set forth in the Closing Statement requires adjustment. The Accounting Firm will be instructed that, in making such determination, it may only consider matters still in dispute between the Buyer and the Seller and may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item

claimed by the Buyer or the Seller or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by the Buyer or the Seller. The Buyer and the Seller each will furnish to the Accounting Firm any work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed items and will provide any interviews and answer any questions that the Accounting Firm may reasonably request. The determination of the Accounting Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Buyer, the Seller and the Company. The fees and expenses for the services of the Accounting Firm will be borne pro rata between the Buyer and the Seller in proportion to the final allocation made by the Accounting Firm of the disputed items weighted in relation to the claims made by the Buyer and the Seller, such that the prevailing Party pays the lesser proportion of such fees and expenses. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, each of the Buyer and the Seller will be responsible for its own fees and expenses incurred in connection with this paragraph.

(e) Following the agreement or determination of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.4(b), Section 2.4(c) or Section 2.4(d) (Purchase Price Adjustment):

(i)

if the Purchase Price set forth on the Closing Statement exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, the Buyer will, within three (3) Business Days after the date of such final agreement or determination, pay the amount of such excess to the Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Seller; and

(ii)

if the Purchase Price set forth on the Closing Statement is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, the Seller will, within three (3) Business Days after the date of such final agreement or determination, pay the amount of such shortfall to the Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Buyer.

(f) All payments made pursuant to this Section 2.4 (Purchase Price Adjustment) will be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes.

Section 2.5. Tax Opinion. At the Closing, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer the written opinion of Ropes & ▇▇▇▇, tax counsel to the Company, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C that, subject to customary exceptions, assumptions and qualifications, and based on customary factual representations contained in an officer’s certificate executed by the Company, commencing with the Company’s initial taxable year, the Company was organized and has operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT, and its method of operation up to the Closing has enabled and will enable it to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT up to the Closing, determined as if the Company’s taxable year ended as of the Closing.

Section 2.6. Withholding. Each of the Buyer, the Seller, the Company and the Deposit Escrow Agent, as applicable, will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement, any Taxes required under the Code or any other applicable Law to be deducted and withheld.

Section 6.4. Further Assurances. Each of the Parties will use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or to cause to be taken, all appropriate action and will do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including obtaining the Third Party Consents and obtaining from Governmental Authorities all consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders as are necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.5. Public Announcements. Without the prior written consent of each of the Parties, none of the Seller, the Company, the Buyer, any of their respective Affiliates or any Representatives of any of the foregoing, will issue any press release or otherwise make any public announcement with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except as may be required by applicable Law, in which case, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the disclosing Party will immediately notify and consult with the other Parties with respect to such disclosure.

(a) The Buyer will maintain the qualification of the Company as a REIT until the earlier of (i) the end of the taxable year in which the Closing occurs or (ii) the liquidation of the REIT. During such time, without prior consent of the Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, neither the Buyer nor the Company will take any action, or fail

This Section 6.7 (Use of Name) will survive the Closing.

(a) The Seller will cause the Company and each Company Subsidiary to prepare and timely file all Returns and amendments thereto required to be filed by the Company and each Company Subsidiary for all Tax periods ending on or prior to the date of the Closing which must be filed after the date of the Closing consistent with past practices. The Seller will provide, and the Buyer will have reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, prior to filing, all such Returns. The Seller will act reasonably in deciding whether to accept or reject such comments; provided, that in the event the Buyer believes that the Seller is not acting reasonably, disputed items on the applicable Return will be referred to an Accounting Firm, and the determination of the Accounting Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Buyer, the Seller and the Company.

(b) The Buyer will cause the Company and each Company Subsidiary to prepare and timely file all Returns required to be filed by the Company and each Company Subsidiary after the date of the Closing with respect to the taxable year that includes but does not end on the date of the Closing (“Straddle Period Returns”) consistent with past practices to extent permitted by applicable Law. The Buyer will provide, and the Seller will have reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, prior to filing, all such Straddle Period Returns and amendments thereto. The Buyer will act reasonably in deciding whether to accept or reject such comments; provided, that in the event the Seller believes that the Buyer is not acting reasonably, disputed items on the Straddle Period Return will be referred to an Accounting Firm, and the determination of the Accounting Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Buyer, the Seller and the Company.

(c) The Buyer and the Seller will notify one another in writing within 10 days of receipt of any notice of any audit, assessment, proposed adjustment, notice of deficiency, litigation, dispute or other proceeding with respect to Taxes that, if determined adversely to the taxpayer, could be grounds for indemnification under this Agreement by the other party (each, a “Tax Contest”); provided, that a failure to give such notification will not affect indemnification provided hereunder, except and only to the extent that the Indemnitee actually and materially was prejudiced by such delay. The Buyer will have the right to control the conduct of any Tax Contest; provided, that the Buyer will (i) keep the Seller reasonably informed of the progress of any Tax Contest, (ii) provide the Seller with copies of any pleadings, correspondence, and other documents received from the relevant tax authority, and all written materials submitted to such taxing authority by the Buyer with respect to any Tax Contest, (iii) permit the Seller to participate (but not control) at its own expense in any Tax Contest relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period and (iv) provide the Seller an opportunity to comment in connection with any Tax Contest and act reasonably in deciding whether to accept or reject such comments; provided further, that, in addition to and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Buyer will not settle or compromise any Tax Contest without the Seller’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) The Seller and the Buyer will (i) reasonably assist one another in preparing and filing any Returns that the Buyer or the Seller is responsible for preparing and filing with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary for the Straddle Period and reasonably cooperate in preparing for any audits by, or disputes or other proceedings with, any Governmental Authority or with respect to any matters relating to Taxes for the Straddle Period and any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, (ii) make available to one another and to any Governmental Authority as reasonably requested by any such party all information, records and documents relating to Tax matters (including Returns) of or relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary relating to the Straddle Period or any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, and (iii) reasonably assist one another to facilitate the demand for written statements from shareholders of record disclosing such ownership as required pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.857-8. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.8(d) will obligate the Seller or its Representatives (x) to prepare or create any financial or other data or information outside the ordinary course of business or (y) to disclose to the Buyer or its Representatives any information if doing so would violate any contract or applicable Law to which the Seller is subject.

(e) For any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, receipts, transfers, transactions or payroll of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for the Pre- Closing Tax Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the day before the Closing Date and the amount of other Taxes (other than such Taxes prorated under Section 1.1 (Certain Defined Terms) of this Agreement) of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the day before the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(f) The Seller will be entitled to the amount of any refund of Taxes of the Company or any Company Subsidiary with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (to the extent such Taxes were paid by the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing, or by the Seller after the Closing) which refund is actually received by the Buyer or its Subsidiaries after the Closing, net of any cost to the Buyer and its Affiliates attributable to the obtaining and receipt of such refund unless such refunds were taken into account under Section 2.4 (Purchase Price Adjustment). The Buyer will pay such amount to the Seller within 10 days of the receipt of the refund by the Company or any Company Subsidiary. The Buyer, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries will cooperate with the Seller in filing any reasonable claims for such tax refunds to which the Seller is entitled to with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(g) The Seller, the Buyer and the Company will treat the sale of the Shares as a sale of equity interests in the Company for all tax purposes, and will report the sale of Shares consistently with the foregoing for all tax purposes. The Buyer will not make or cause to be made an election under Section 338 of the Code (or similar provision under state or local law) with respect to the purchase of the Shares.

(h) From and after the Closing, the Buyer, the Company and/or the Company Subsidiaries will not amend Returns in respect of a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period in a manner that would give rise to a Tax liability of the Seller or an indemnification obligation of the Seller under Section 8.2(a), unless required by any applicable Law, without obtaining the written consent of the Seller, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Buyer shall give prompt notice to the Seller if an amendment of a Return discussed in this Section 6.8(h) is required by applicable Law.

Section 6.9. Disclosure Schedules.

(a) The headings, if any, of the individual sections of the Disclosure Schedules are inserted for convenience of reference only, and will not be deemed to constitute a part thereof or of this Agreement. The Disclosure Schedules are arranged in sections corresponding to those contained in this Agreement merely for convenience, and the disclosure of an item in one section of the Disclosure Schedules as an exception to any particular representation, warranty, covenant or agreement will be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to all other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements to the extent that the relevance of such item to such other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements is reasonably apparent on its face (notwithstanding the presence or absence of a section number of the Disclosure Schedules that corresponds to the section number of such other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements or a cross-reference thereto). The mere inclusion of an item on the Disclosure Schedules will not be deemed an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, and exclusively by virtue of the inclusion of such item on the Disclosure Schedules, that (i) such item is required to be listed on the Disclosure Schedules, (ii) such item, or any non-disclosed item or information of comparable or greater significance, represents a material exception or fact, event, or circumstance, (iii) such item has had, or is expected to result in, a Company Material Adverse Effect or a Seller Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) such item actually constitutes noncompliance with, or a violation of, any applicable Law, Permit or Material Contract, or other topic to which such disclosure is applicable.

(b) From the date hereof until the earlier to occur of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1 (Termination), the Seller will be entitled to disclose to the Buyer in writing, in good faith and in reasonable detail based on the facts known at the time and specifically identified as for the purpose of updating the Disclosure Schedules, any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties contained in ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV hereof to the extent (a) arising out of facts or circumstances occurring after the date hereof (but not to the extent arising out of facts and circumstances occurring on or prior to the date hereof, even if the Seller first obtains knowledge of such events after the date hereof) and (b) not resulting from a breach of any of the Company’s obligations set forth in Section 6.1 (Conduct of Business Prior to Closing) hereof; and, for all purposes of this Agreement, such disclosures will amend and supplement the Disclosure Schedules delivered to the Buyer on the date hereof (the “Updated Schedules”); provided, that upon delivery of any such Updated Schedule to the Buyer, and solely to the extent the matters disclosed in such Updated Schedule have a material and non-beneficial impact on the Company or the Company Properties as a whole, the Buyer may deliver written notice (the “Update Termination Notice”) to the Seller within three (3) Business Days of receipt of such Updated Schedule of its election to terminate this Agreement (an “Update Termination Event”). If the Buyer fails to deliver to the Seller an Update Termination Notice within the three (3) Business Day period following receipt of any Updated Schedules, the Buyer will be deemed (i) to have waived its right to deliver an Update Termination Notice with respect to the disclosure set forth on the Updated Schedule (and only with respect to such disclosure), which disclosure and Updated Schedule, accordingly, will not constitute an Update Termination Event, and (ii) to have accepted such Updated Schedule and to have waived any indemnification rights with respect to the contents of such Updated Schedule under this Agreement.

Section 6.10. Audit Cooperation. For a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, the Seller will, from time to time, upon reasonable advance notice from the Buyer, provide (a) the Buyer and its Representatives access to all financial and other information pertaining to the period of the Company’s and each applicable Company Subsidiary’s ownership and operation of any Company Property (other than such matters that relate to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or to transactions potentially competing with or alternative to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), which may include any such information and/or documents more particularly described on Schedule 6.10 attached hereto, which information is relevant and reasonably necessary, in the opinion of the Buyer’s outside, third party accountants (the “Accountants”), to enable the Buyer and its Accountants to prepare financial statements in compliance with any or all of (i) Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the SEC, (ii) any other rule issued by the SEC and applicable to the Buyer or its Affiliates, and (iii) any registration statement, report or disclosure statement filed with the SEC by, or on behalf of the Buyer or its Affiliates and (b) reasonable assistance to the Buyer and the Accountants in completing an audit of such financial statements. The Seller will provide or cause to be provided such information and documentation on a per-Company Property basis, if available; provided that any access or furnishing of information must be conducted at the Buyer’s expense during normal business

hours, under the supervision of the Seller’s personnel, and in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Seller. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.10 will obligate the Seller or its Representatives (x) to prepare or create any financial or other data or other information, summaries or materials of any kind or nature outside the ordinary course of business of the Seller and the Company as of the Closing, (y) to incur any out of pocket expenses in connection with such cooperation unless reimbursed promptly by the Buyer or (z) to disclose to the Buyer or its Representatives any information (A) if doing so would violate any contract or applicable Law to which the Seller is subject or (B) if the Seller believes in good faith based on advice of counsel that doing so would jeopardize the ability to assert a claim of privilege (including the attorney-client and work product privileges).

Section 6.11. Outstanding Guarantees. Following the Closing, the Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to secure the release, and obtain customary instruments evidencing such release, of CT REIT Holdings I LLC from each of the guarantees described in items 21, 22 and 23 of Schedule 4.15(a)(ii) (each, until such date and time as it is released in accordance with this sentence, an “Outstanding Guarantee”).

Section 6.12. Insurance Matters.

(a) With respect to the Pollution Policy, without the Buyer’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Seller will not, nor will it permit any Affiliate that is insured under the Pollution Policy to, amend, commute, terminate, release, or otherwise modify such policy in any respect that would modify the coverage afforded to the Company or any Company Subsidiary. The Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates who are insured under the Pollution Policy, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an endorsement the Pollution Policies that adds the Buyer as an additional named insured, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense. In the event that the Buyer on the one hand, and the Seller or any of its Affiliates on the other, both submit claims under the Pollution Policy, such claims are pending at the same time, and satisfaction of both claims would exhaust the remaining applicable limits of such Pollution Policy, the Buyer and the Seller agree to apportion the remaining insurance proceeds pro rata according to the ratio, the numerator of which is the loss of either party (as applicable) and the denominator of which is the total loss of both parties.

(b) With respect to the Liability Policies, without the Buyer’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Seller will not, nor will it permit any Affiliate that is insured under the Liability Policies to, amend, commute, terminate, release, or otherwise modify such Policies in any respect that would modify the coverage afforded to the Company or any Company Subsidiary for claims related to pre-Closing occurrences. the Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates who are insured under the Liability Policies, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an endorsement to each of the Liability Policies that adds the Buyer as an additional insured (solely with respect to the Buyer’s interest in the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense.

(c) The Seller and its Affiliates that are insured under the Subject Policies may submit claims in accordance with such Subject Policies’ terms and conditions, it being understood that erosion of aggregate limits resulting from such claims activity will not constitute a breach of this provision. From and after the Closing, the Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates insured under the Subject Policies, to use commercially reasonable efforts, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, to assist the Buyer, the Company or its Subsidiaries in making claims under any Subject Policy, including asserting its status as an insured under such Subject Policy; provided, that neither the Seller nor any such Affiliate will bear any liability for the failure of an insurance carrier to pay any claim if such failure does not result from a breach of this Agreement.

Section 6.13. Exclusivity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Access Agreement, the Seller agrees (a) to extend the Exclusivity Period until the earlier to occur of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1 (Termination) and (b) to comply in all material respects with the Seller’s obligations under Section 4 (Exclusivity) of the Access Agreement on the terms, and subject to the conditions, thereof.

Section 6.14. Title Company. The Seller covenants to execute and deliver to the Title Company on or prior to the Closing a duly executed owner’s declaration in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1, a duly executed non-imputation affidavit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-2, together with other customary and reasonable affidavits, instruments and information required by the Title Company (A) to evidence authority of the Seller, the Company and Company Subsidiaries, (B) to remove exceptions for existing deeds of trust, and (C) with regard to recent or current construction at any Company Property.

Section 8.2. Indemnification Obligations.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification), the Seller agrees, from and after the Closing, to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer, its Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses actually suffered by or asserted against any of the Buyer Indemnitees arising from, or in connection with:

(i)

any inaccuracy in or breach by the Seller of any of the Seller Representations;

(ii)

any breach by the Seller of any of the Post-Closing Covenants made by it;

(iii)

any inaccuracy in or breach by the Company of any of the Company Representations;

(iv)

any Closing Indebtedness or Company Transaction Expenses not paid and satisfied in full at the Closing or taken into account in the calculation of the Purchase Price (including any adjustments thereto);

(v)

any Taxes (other than such Taxes prorated under Section 1.1 (Certain Defined Terms) of this Agreement) of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries that are due with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, provided that such Taxes do not arise as a result of (a) the Buyer’s failure to comply with its obligations under Section 6.6 (Ongoing REIT Qualification) or Section 6.8(h) (Other Tax Matters), (b) failure of the REIT after the Closing to make distributions in a manner that would avoid tax under Section 857(b) of the Code and excise tax under Section 4981 of the Code and analogous provisions of applicable state and local jurisdictions or (c) liquidation of the REIT by the Buyer or transfer of any properties by the REIT on or after the Closing; and

(vi)

any and all claims for payments required to be made, or any actions required to be taken, of any kind whatsoever, by CT REIT Holdings I LLC under an Outstanding Guarantee.

In connection with clause (i) and (iii) above, the relevant representation or warranty will be interpreted without giving effect to any limitation or qualification as to “materiality,” “material,” “Material Adverse Effect” or qualifiers to similar effect set forth in such representation or warranty for purposes of both (A) determining whether there is an inaccuracy or breach and (B) the Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to such inaccuracy or breach.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification), the Buyer agrees, from and after the Closing, to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, its Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives (the “Seller Indemnitees”, and together with the Buyer Indemnitees, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses suffered by or asserted against any of the Seller Indemnitees arising from, or in connection with:

(i)

any inaccuracy in or breach by the Buyer of any of the Buyer Representations;

(ii)

any breach by the Buyer of any of the Post-Closing Covenants made by it; and

(iii)

any breach by the Company of any of the Post-Closing Covenants made by it.

In connection with clause (i) above, the relevant representation or warranty will be interpreted without giving effect to any limitation or qualification as to “materiality,” “material,” “Material Adverse Effect” or qualifiers to similar effect set forth in such representation or warranty for purposes of both (A) determining whether there is an inaccuracy or breach and (B) the Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to such inaccuracy or breach.

(c) The rights of each of the Indemnitees under this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) are cumulative and each Indemnitee will have the right in any particular circumstance to enforce any provision of this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) without regard to the availability of a remedy under any other provision of this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification); provided, that no Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any Losses to the extent such Indemnitee or its Affiliate(s) has been indemnified or reimbursed for the same Losses under any other provision of this Agreement; and, provided, further, that duplicative Losses actually recovered by the Company from the Seller will not also be recoverable by the Buyer Indemnitees.

Section 8.3. Claims for Indemnification. All claims for indemnification by the Indemnitees will be asserted and resolved in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification).

(a) To seek indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification), an Indemnitee will promptly notify the applicable indemnitor (as applicable, the “Indemnitor”) in writing of the claim, describing the claim in reasonable detail and the amount, or a reasonable estimation of such amount made in good faith based on the facts known at the time and not on a purely speculative basis, of Losses suffered or to be suffered by the Indemnitee pursuant to the claim (the “Claims Notice”); provided, that a failure of any Indemnitee to promptly notify the Indemnitor of a claim will not relieve the Indemnitor from liability for such claim, except and only to the extent that the Indemnitor actually and materially was prejudiced by such delay. If the Indemnitor does not notify the Indemnitee in writing within twenty (20) days from its receipt of such Claims Notice that the Indemnitor disputes such claim, the Indemnitor will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to indemnify the Indemnitee from and against the entirety of any Losses described in such Claims Notice. If the Indemnitor has delivered such an indemnity dispute notice to the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee will proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution to such dispute.

(b) With respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, each of the Indemnitee and Indemnitor will reasonably cooperate and assist the other in determining the validity of such claim and in otherwise resolving such claim; provided, that no Person will be required by this clause to disclose any confidential information or take any action that would reasonably be expected, at the advice of counsel, to waive or limit any attorney-client or other similar privilege.

(c) With respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) that does involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitor will have twenty (20) days from the date on which the Indemnitor received the Claims Notice to notify the Indemnitee in writing that the Indemnitor desires to assume and to assume, the negotiation, defense or prosecution of the Third-Party Claim, with counsel of its choice. Should the Indemnitor so assume the negotiation, defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim, then so long as it diligently conducts such negotiation, defense or prosecution, the Indemnitor will not be liable to the Indemnitee for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the negotiation, defense or prosecution thereof, unless the Indemnitee reasonably determines, upon the advice of external counsel for the Indemnitee, that the Third-

Party Claim involves potential conflicts of interest or substantially different defenses for the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor, in which case the Indemnitor will be liable to the Indemnitee for the reasonable expenses of one counsel for the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor will not be entitled assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim (i) to the extent such claim alleges a violation of criminal law or seeks non-monetary relief; (ii) if the defense thereof is not assumed within twenty (20) days after the date on which the Indemnitor received the Claims Notice or (iii) if the Indemnitor does not conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim with reasonable diligence. Should the Indemnitor so assume the negotiation, defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee (i) will have the right to participate in, but not control, the negotiation, defense or prosecution thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnitor and (ii) will reasonably cooperate in the negotiation, defense or prosecution thereof, with such cooperation to include the retention and (upon the Indemnitor’s request and at the Indemnitor’s expense) the provision to the Indemnitor of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim and the use of reasonable efforts to make employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Should the Indemnitor not so assume the negotiation, defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee will be entitled to assume such negotiation, defense or prosecution at the Indemnitor’s cost and expense. Regardless of which Party controls the negotiation, defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim, such controlling Party will not admit any Liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the other Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that if the Indemnitor assumes the negotiation, defense or prosecution of a Third-Party claim, the Indemnitor may pay, settle or compromise such Third-Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnitee, so long as such payment, settlement or compromise (x) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all Losses in respect of such Third-Party Claim, (y) does not subject the Indemnitee to any criminal liability or injunctive relief or other equitable remedy and (z) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnitee.

Section 8.4. Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) No indemnification claims for Losses will be asserted by or payable to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(a)(iii) (Indemnification Obligations) or the Seller Indemnitees pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) (Indemnification Obligations) (i) for any individual claim, or series of individual claims that are related or that otherwise arise or result from the same or substantially similar facts and circumstances, unless the amount of Losses that otherwise would be payable under the applicable Section for such individual claim or such series of claims exceeds $25,000 (the “Per Claim Minimum”); and (ii) until the aggregate amount of all Losses for claims exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Basket”), in which case the Buyer Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, will be entitled to recover all Losses, except, for the avoidance of doubt, for such Losses that do not satisfy the Per Claim Minimum; provided, that the Basket will not apply to any claims for Losses attributable to actual, knowing and intentional fraud or Losses based on claims for inaccuracies in or breaches of any Fundamental Representation.

(b) No indemnification claims for Losses will be asserted by or payable to any of the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) and Section 8.2(a)(iii) (Indemnification Obligations) or any of the Seller Indemnitees pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) (Indemnification Obligations) for an aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $7,640,000 (the “Cap”); provided, that the Cap will not apply to claims for Losses attributable to actual, knowing and intentional fraud or Losses based on claims for inaccuracies in or breaches of any Fundamental Representation.

(c) No indemnification claims for Losses under this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) will be asserted by or payable to any of the Buyer Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses were expressly taken into account in the Closing Statement or any adjustments thereto. In no event will the cumulative indemnification obligations of the Seller pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (Indemnification Obligations), on the one hand, or of the Buyer pursuant to Section 8.2(b) (Indemnification Obligations), on the other hand, in the aggregate exceed the Purchase Price.

(d) The amount of insurance proceeds actually received by an Indemnitee and its Affiliates in respect of the given Losses for which indemnification is claimed, less (i) the related reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by such Indemnitee and its Affiliates in recovering such insurance proceeds and (ii) any actual or reasonably estimated insurance premium increase attributable to the claim with respect to which such insurance proceeds are paid, will reduce such Losses that such Indemnitee may recover under this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification); provided, that no Indemnitee will be obligated to pursue any such insurance as a condition to receipt of indemnification under this Agreement. If an Indemnitee and its Affiliates receive net insurance proceeds after an indemnification payment has been made in respect of the Losses to which such net insurance proceeds relate, then the Indemnitee and its Affiliates promptly will remit such net insurance proceeds, up to the aggregate amount of indemnification payment in respect of the Losses to which such net insurance proceeds relate (i) in the case of the Buyer Indemnitees, to the Seller and (ii) in the case of the Seller Indemnitees, to the Buyer. The Seller agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives will seek, nor will any such Person be entitled to, reimbursement or contribution from, subrogation to, or indemnification by the Buyer, the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, under their respective Organizational Documents or any other contract for indemnification or insurance, or under this Agreement, applicable Law or otherwise, in respect of any amounts due from any such Person to any Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) or otherwise in connection with this Agreement.

(e) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) will be measured net of any Tax benefit actually realized by an Indemnitee and its Affiliates, as a result of the incurrence of the Losses for which indemnification is sought.

Section 8.5. Manner of Payment. Any indemnification payment pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) will be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller or the Buyer, as the case may be, within ten (10) Business Days after the determination of the amount thereof, whether pursuant to a judgment, settlement or agreement among the Parties.

Section 8.6. Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of (a) matters covered by Section 2.4 (Purchase Price Adjustment) and (b) actual, knowing and intentional fraud, from and after the Closing, the rights of the Parties to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) will be the sole and exclusive remedy for any Person with respect to any matter in any way arising from or relating to this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties hereby waive all other rights and remedies with respect to any matter in any way arising from or relating to this Agreement, whether under any Laws or in equity or otherwise.

Section 8.7. Tax Treatment. Any indemnification payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification) will be considered an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal, state and local Tax purposes, and will be reported by the Parties as such.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION; REMEDIES

Section 9.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) if (i) any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 (Conditions to Obligations of the Seller and the Company) hereof become incapable of being satisfied and are not otherwise waived by the Seller or (ii) (A) all of the conditions set forth Section 7.1 (Conditions to Obligations of All Parties) and Section 7.3 (Conditions to Obligations of the Buyer) hereof have been satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and are capable of being satisfied at the Closing), and (B) the Closing fails to occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on April 29, 2016 (the “Outside Date”), then in any such case, the Seller may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving prompt written notice to the Buyer. Upon the Buyer’s receipt of such termination notice, (x) the Seller and the Buyer will promptly instruct Deposit Escrow Agent to release the Deposit Escrow Funds to the Seller, (y) upon receipt of such joint instruction, Deposit Escrow Agent will immediately release the Deposit Escrow Funds to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Seller as the Seller’s sole and exclusive right and remedy for the failure of the Closing to occur, and (z) immediately following receipt by the Seller of the Deposit Escrow Funds, neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall have any further liability to the other in respect of this Agreement or the Access Agreement, except for those obligations under this Agreement or the Access Agreement that expressly survive termination thereof.

(b) if (i) any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 (Conditions to Obligations of All Parties) or Section 7.3 (Conditions to Obligations of the Buyer) hereof become incapable of being satisfied and are not otherwise waived by the Buyer, or (ii) (A) the Closing does not occur on or prior to the Outside Date and (B) neither the conditions set forth in Section 9.1(a)(i) or 9.1(a)(ii) hereof are met, then in any such case, the Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving prompt written notice to the Seller. Upon the Seller’s receipt of such termination notice, (x) the Seller and the Buyer will promptly instruct Deposit Escrow Agent to release the Deposit Escrow Funds to the Buyer, (y) upon receipt of such joint instruction, Deposit Escrow Agent will immediately release the Deposit Escrow Funds to the Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Buyer and (z) immediately following receipt by the Buyer of the Deposit Escrow Funds, neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall have any further liability to the other in respect of this Agreement or the Access Agreement, except for those obligations under this Agreement or the Access Agreement that expressly survive termination thereof; provided, that nothing in this Section 9.1(b) shall restrict the Buyer from pursuing a claim against the Seller for actual out of pocket damages incurred as a result of the Seller’s breach of the covenants contained in Section 7.3 (Conditions to Obligations of the Buyer). For the sake of clarity, in lieu of terminating this Agreement and exercising the foregoing rights, the Buyer may elect to seek specific performance in accordance with Section 10.11 (Specific Performance).

Section 9.2. Casualty and Condemnation.

(a) Casualty. As used herein, a “Significant Casualty” means a Casualty for which (i) the estimated cost of repair or restoration for any individual Company Property exceeds ten percent (10%) of the allocated share of the Purchase Price for such Company Property as set forth on Schedule 2.2 hereof, (ii) the estimated time to substantially complete such repair or restoration exceeds twelve (12) months from the date of the Casualty or (iii) which permits any tenant under a Material Lease to terminate such Material Lease. If the Seller determines that a Significant Casualty has occurred, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a notice thereof together with any estimates obtained by the Seller from independent contractor(s) substantiating the threshold levels aforesaid and a list of any tenants who have the right to terminate their respective Material Leases as a result thereof. If the Buyer disputes the existence of a Significant Casualty, the Buyer shall deliver notice to the Seller thereof describing the basis of such dispute in reasonable detail within five (5) days following the Seller’s delivery of such estimates (a “Casualty Dispute Notice”). Upon delivery of a Casualty Dispute Notice, such dispute will be resolved by Casualty/Condemnation Arbitration.

(b) Condemnation. As used herein, a “Significant Taking” occurs if all or any part of any Company Property is subject to a taking (other than a temporary taking), or if the Seller or the Company or any Company Subsidiary receives an official notice from any Governmental Authority having eminent domain power over a Company Property of its intention to take, by eminent domain proceeding, any part of the Company Property (a “Taking”), and if such Taking (i) involves more than fifteen percent (15%) of the rentable area of any Company Property, (ii) results in a permanent loss of a material portion of the parking or access to any Company Property or (iii) which permits any tenant under a Material Lease to terminate such Material Lease. If the Seller reasonably determines that a Significant Taking has occurred, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a notice of its determination thereof together any evaluations obtained by the Seller from independent architect(s) substantiating the threshold levels aforesaid

and a list of any tenants who have the right to terminate their respective Material Leases as a result thereof. If the Buyer disputes any such determination delivered by the Seller, the Buyer shall deliver notice to the Seller thereof describing the basis of such dispute in reasonable detail within five (5) days following the Seller’s delivery of such determination (a “Condemnation Dispute Notice”). Upon delivery of a Condemnation Dispute Notice, such dispute will be resolved by Casualty/Condemnation Arbitration.

(c) Arbitration. Any disputes under this Section 9.2 (Casualty and Condemnation) will be resolved by expedited arbitration before a single arbitrator in Wilmington, Delaware acceptable to both of the Seller and the Buyer in their reasonable judgment in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“Casualty/Condemnation Arbitration”); provided, that if the Seller and the Buyer fail to agree on an arbitrator within five (5) days after a dispute arises, then either Party may request the office of the American Arbitration Association located in Wilmington, Delaware to designate an arbitrator. In the event of a dispute regarding a potential Significant Casualty, such arbitrator will be an independent architect or engineer who is impartial and has no existing or historical personal professional relationship with the Seller, the Buyer or their respective Affiliates, having at least ten (10) years of experience in the construction of industrial buildings in the State in which the Company Property is located. In the event of a dispute regarding a potential Significant Taking, such arbitrator will be an independent architect having at least ten (10) years of experience in the construction of industrial/warehouse buildings in the State in which such Company Property is located. The costs and expenses of such arbitrator will be borne equally by the Seller and the Buyer.

Section 10.6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior written agreements, arrangements, communications and understandings and all prior and contemporaneous oral agreements, arrangements, communications and understandings, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement will not be deemed to contain or imply any restriction, covenant, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking of any Party with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those expressly set forth herein, including any implied covenants regarding noncompetition or nonsolicitation, and none will be deemed to exist or be inferred with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding any oral agreement or course of conduct of the Parties or their Representatives to the contrary, no Party will be under any legal obligation to enter into or complete the transactions contemplated hereby unless and until this Agreement has been executed and delivered by each of the Parties.

Section 10.7. Parties in Interest. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or will confer upon any Person, other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, that the Parties expressly agree that the Indemnitees are express third-party beneficiaries of ARTICLE VIII (Indemnification), with rights to enforce such provisions in accordance with their terms; provided, however, the Deposit Escrow Agent may not assign this Agreement or delegate its obligations hereunder other than to a successor escrow agent appointed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.8. Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims, causes of action, disputes or controversies based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution, performance, non-performance, interpretation, termination or construction of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether arising in contract or tort), will be governed by and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to conflict of laws principles. EACH OF THE PARTIES AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT INVOLVES AT LEAST U.S. $100,000.00 AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN ENTERED INTO IN EXPRESS RELIANCE UPON 6 Del. C. § 2708.

Section 10.9. Submission to Jurisdiction. The Parties hereby agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in the State of Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement and, in furtherance of such agreement, the Parties hereby agree that, without limiting other methods of obtaining jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction over the Parties in any such action or proceeding may be obtained within or without the jurisdiction of any court located in Delaware, and that any process or notice of motion or other application to any such court in connection with any such action or proceeding may be served upon any of the Parties by registered or certified mail to or by personal service at the last known address of that Party, whether such address be within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Any legal suit, action or other proceeding by one Party against any other Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement (other than any dispute which, pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement, is to be determined by arbitration) will be instituted only in the Chancery Court of the State of

Delaware or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware does not have jurisdiction, any State or Federal court sitting in Delaware, and each Party hereby waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non-conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding and submits to the jurisdiction of such courts. The provisions of this Section 10.9 (Submission to Jurisdiction) will survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1 (Termination).

Section 10.10. Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties and any such assignment or delegation without such prior written consent will be null and void; provided, that the Buyer may assign it rights hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or to its financing sources for collateral assignment purposes, but such assignment will in no way relieve the Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 10.11. Specific Performance. Subject to Section 9.1 (Termination), the Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, subject to Section 9.1 (Termination), the Parties acknowledge and agree that each of the Parties will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without proof of damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the parties are entitled under this Agreement. Subject to Section 9.1 (Termination), each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Subject to Section 9.1 (Termination), the Parties acknowledge and agree that no Party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and/or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.11 will be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such action.

Section 10.12. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

Section 10.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT.

Section 10.14. Facsimile or PDF Signature. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile or .pdf signature and a facsimile or .pdf signature will constitute an original for all purposes.

Section 10.15. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement.

Section 10.16. Legal Representation.

(a) The Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) acknowledges and agrees that Ropes & ▇▇▇▇ LLP (the “Seller Party Transaction Counsel”) has acted as counsel for the Seller, the Company and, where applicable, their respective affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Acquisition Engagement”), and the Seller Party Transaction Counsel has not acted as counsel for any other Person with respect to the Acquisition Engagement, including the Buyer.

(b) Only the Seller, the Company and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, will be considered clients of the Seller Party Transaction Counsel in connection with the Acquisition Engagement. The Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company), acknowledges and agrees that all confidential communications between the Seller, the Company and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Seller Party Transaction Counsel, on the other hand, and any attendant attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection and expectation of client confidentiality applicable thereto, will be deemed to belong solely to the Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) and not the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, and will not pass to or be claimed, held or used by the Buyer or the Company upon or after the Closing, in each case to the extent relating to the Acquisition Engagement. Accordingly, the Buyer will not have access to any such communications, or to the files of the Seller Party Transaction Counsel, whether or not the Closing occurs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) to the extent that files of the Seller Party Transaction Counsel constitute client property and to the extent that such files relate to the Acquisition Engagement, only the Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries) will hold such property rights and (ii) the Seller Party Transaction Counsel will have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files, in each case to the extent related to the Acquisition Engagement, to the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or the Buyer by reason of any attorney-client relationship between the Seller Party Transaction Counsel

and the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or otherwise; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller Party Transaction Counsel will not disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any third parties (other than representatives, accountants and advisors of the Seller and its Affiliates who are instructed to maintain the confidence of such attorney-client communications). If and to the extent that, at any time subsequent to the Closing, the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) has the right to assert or waive any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication between the Company or its Affiliates and any Person representing any of them that occurred at any time prior to the Closing and to the extent relating to the Acquisition Engagement, the Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) will be entitled to waive such privilege only with the prior written consent of the Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) The Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), acknowledges and agrees that the Seller Party Transaction Counsel has acted as counsel for the Seller, the Company, and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, and may continue to represent the Seller and/or its Affiliates (other than the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), as applicable, in future matters. Accordingly, the Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), expressly (i) consents to the Seller Party Transaction Counsel’s representation of the Seller and its Affiliates and/or any of their respective agents (if any of the foregoing Persons so desire) in any matter, including any post-Closing matter in which the interests of the Buyer, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Seller and its Affiliates, as applicable, on the other hand, are adverse, including any matter relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and whether or not such matter is one in which the Seller Party Transaction Counsel may have previously advised the Seller, the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable and (ii) consents to the disclosure by the Seller Party Transaction Counsel to the Seller and its Affiliates, of any information learned by the Seller Party Transaction Counsel in the course of its representation of the Seller, the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, whether or not such information is subject to attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection or the Seller Party Transaction Counsel’s duty of confidentiality.

(d) The Seller, the Company and the Buyer consent to the arrangements in this Section 10.16 (Legal Representation), and waive any actual or potential conflict of interest that may be involved in connection with any representation by the Seller Party Transaction Counsel permitted hereunder.

Section 10.17. Deposit Escrow Agent.

(a) In the event of any disagreement between the Seller and the Buyer resulting in conflicting or adverse claims or demands made in connection with the Deposit Escrow Funds, Deposit Escrow Agent will be entitled, at its option, to refuse to comply with any such claims or demands so long as the disagreement will continue, and in so doing Deposit Escrow Agent will not be liable for its failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting or

adverse claims or demands until the rights of the claimants have been finally adjudicated or the differences adjusted between the Seller and the Buyer and Deposit Escrow Agent has been notified thereof in writing signed by each of the Seller and the Buyer. Deposit Escrow Agent will also have the right to bring an action in interpleader to obtain the right to pay said sum to a court of competent jurisdiction, deducting from said sum the costs incurred in bringing such an action.

(b) In the event of any dispute or litigation affecting Deposit Escrow Agent’s duties relating to this Agreement, Deposit Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel and will incur no liability and will be fully protected in acting in good faith in accordance with the opinion of counsel; provided that nothing herein will release or discharge Deposit Escrow Agent from liability to the extent it is adjudged negligent or to have acted (or failed to act) in bad faith. Deposit Escrow Agent will be indemnified and saved harmless by the Buyer and the Seller, jointly and severally, from all losses, costs and expenses incurred, including reasonable attorney’s fees, as a result of its involvement in any litigation arising from performance of its duties hereunder, provided that such litigation does not result from any action taken or omitted by Deposit Escrow Agent and for which it has been adjudged negligent or to have acted (or failed to act) in bad faith; such indemnification will survive termination of this Agreement until extinguished by the applicable statute of limitations.

(c) Deposit Escrow Agent may be removed and replaced following the giving of at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Deposit Escrow Agent by both the Seller and the Buyer. The duties of Deposit Escrow Agent will terminate ten (10) days after the date of such notice, or on such later date as may be specified in such notice or as of such earlier date as may be mutually agreed upon by Deposit Escrow Agent and each of the Seller and the Buyer. Deposit Escrow Agent will then deliver the Deposit Escrow Funds to a successor escrow agent as will be appointed by the Seller and the Buyer, as evidenced by a written notice filed with Deposit Escrow Agent. If the Seller and the Buyer are unable to agree upon a successor, or will have failed to appoint a successor prior to the expiration of ten (10) days following the date of the notice of removal, the removed Deposit Escrow Agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in order to request the appointment of a successor escrow agent or other appropriate relief, and any such resulting appointment will be binding upon each of the Seller and the Buyer unless and until another successor will have been appointed pursuant to this paragraph.
