agents, employees or contractors, go upon and have access to the Property during
normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice to Seller to conduct such
soil, engineering, environmental and other examinations, tests, investigations,
analyses and appraisals of the Property as Purchaser deems desirable and to
fully examine the existing, environmental clean-up plan, the parties liable
therefor, the remediation bond, the environmental insurance policy and the
assignability thereof or the effect of naming Purchaser as an additional insured
thereunder, and the environmental problem, clean-up proposal and responsible
parties in respect of Unit 8 of the Condominium. In connection therewith,
Purchaser shall have the right to talk to any municipal or state authority and,
if permitted by such authorities, obtain copies of any reports or
recommendations in such state or municipal files. Seller shall make available to
Purchaser for Purchaser's use in its due diligence all of the items listed in
Exhibit H hereto. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if Purchaser
shall request Seller to deliver to Purchaser any items not included in Exhibit H
which are in Seller's possession or in the possession of the Property Manager or
other professionals hired by Seller, Seller shall use its reasonable efforts, at
no cost to Seller, to promptly obtain the same and deliver it to Purchaser. Upon
two (2) days prior written notice to Seller, Purchaser shall be permitted to
examine and copy all Books and Records of Seller and the Condominium Association
at the offices of Seller during normal business hours. Purchaser shall pay all
third party costs incurred in making such tests, analyses and investigations.
Purchaser acknowledges that any such examinations or inspections of the Property
pursuant to this Paragraph 2.1 are subject to the rights of all Tenants in the
Real Property at the time of such examination or inspection and Purchaser agrees
to conduct such inspections or examinations in such a manner so as to prevent
unreasonable disruption of the ordinary operation of Seller's or any Tenant's
business on the Real Property. Seller shall have the right to have its
representatives accompany Purchaser or its employees, agents or contractors
during any such inspections or examinations. Purchaser will not contact any
Tenant of the Real Property without first obtaining the written approval of
Seller; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall limit Purchaser's
right to contact any Tenant at their "home" or headquarters offices or any
regional offices which are not located at the Real Property. If asked by any
Tenant, Purchaser or its agents shall state that they are an equity investor of
the owner. At Purchaser's request, Seller shall direct Seller's manager of the
Property (the "Property Manager") and Seller's third party consultants and
agents to cooperate with Purchaser in Purchaser's tests, investigations,
analyses, examinations and inspections of the Property pursuant to this
Agreement, at no additional cost to Seller. Purchaser shall restore the Property
to its condition existing immediately before Purchaser's entry upon the
Property, and Purchaser shall indemnify and defend Seller against and hold
Seller harmless from all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements
(collectively, "Claims") for any bodily injury, property damage or construction
liens caused by Purchaser in connection with entry on the Real Property by
Purchaser, its agents, employees or contractors pursuant to this Paragraph 2.1.
Prior to Purchaser, its employees, agents or contractors entering upon the Real
Property and the Common Elements, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, an
insurance policy protecting Seller from any Claims to the extent of $5,000,000.
Purchaser's foregoing obligations shall not include any obligation or duty
whatsoever with respect to Claims (including Claims that the Real Property has
declined in value) arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with
(a) the discovery or presence of any Hazardous Substances (as defined in
Paragraph 12.1.9 below), or (b) the results or findings of any tests or analyses
of Purchaser's environmental or other investigation of the Property. Purchaser's
indemnity of Seller under this Paragraph 2.1 shall survive the rescission,
cancellation, termination or consummation of this Agreement. Purchaser shall not
disclose the results of any investigations to any third party, except for
Purchaser's attorney, appraiser, lenders or other professionals or persons on a
"need to know" basis, as reasonably determined by Purchaser or if required to
disclose pursuant to any law or regulation. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller,
without any charge therefor, a copy of all draft and final environmental reports
received by Purchaser in connection with Purchaser's inspections and
examinations, except if Purchaser is restricted from doing so by the person who
prepared the report.
2.2 Purchaser's Termination Rights. In the event that Purchaser is
not satisfied in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion with the results of
any of Purchaser's inspections, examinations, tests, investigations, analyses
and appraisals, then and in such event, Purchaser shall have the right, on or
before the expiration of the Inspection Period, time being of the essence, to
terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller whereupon Escrow Agent
shall return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money to Purchaser. Thereafter neither party shall have
any rights against the other with respect to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement. In the
event the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated, (a) Purchaser
shall return to Seller the originals of the materials previously furnished to
Purchaser by Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonably efforts to
destroy all copies made thereof, provided, however, Purchaser shall have no
obligation to destroy all copies to the extent necessary to comply with
governmental regulations or doing so would constitute a violation of any
professional responsibilities or subject Purchaser or Purchaser's employees or
representatives to any criminal penalty or civil liability, and (b) Purchaser
shall deliver to Seller copies of all appraisals, engineering reports and
environmental reports in Purchaser's possession or readily obtainable by
Purchaser, prepared by unrelated third parties on behalf of Purchaser during the
Inspection Period ("Purchaser Due Diligence Reports"), provided, however, (i)
except as provided in Paragraph 2.1 hereof Purchaser shall have no obligation to
deliver to Seller any Purchaser Due Diligence Reports prepared by Purchaser or
any of Purchaser's affiliates, (ii) Purchaser's obligation to deliver the
Purchaser Due Diligence Reports shall be subject to the rights of the third
parties who prepared the same and any right such third party may have to refuse
to consent to the delivery of a copy of same to Seller as permitted under such
third party's contract with Purchaser, and without limiting the foregoing,
Purchaser shall have no obligation to furnish Seller with a "use and rely"
letter or similar agreement from such third parties, and (iii) Seller expressly
acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in or omitted from any of the
Purchaser Due Diligence Reports shall limit or diminish Purchaser's sole and
absolute discretion in determining whether Purchaser is satisfied with the
results of such Purchaser Due Diligence Reports and Purchaser's corresponding
right to terminate this Agreement. In the event that Purchaser does not elect to
terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Paragraph 2.2, then and in such event Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived
Purchaser's rights under this Paragraph 2.2 to terminate this Agreement due to
the results of Purchaser's "Due Diligence" examination during the Inspection
Period, if any, conducted in accordance with the terms and provisions of
Paragraph 2.1 above and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or in
any documents executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, Purchaser shall
accept a conveyance of the Property in "AS IS" condition and Purchaser shall
have no further right to terminate this Agreement, except as may otherwise be
hereinafter specifically set forth in this Agreement.
2.3 Condition of the Property. Purchaser understands and agrees
that, with respect to the physical and environmental condition of the Property,
the Property is being sold and conveyed hereunder "AS IS", without any
representation or warranty by Seller except as expressly set forth in this
Agreement or in any documents executed and delivered by Seller at Closing.
Neither Seller nor Seller's representatives make any warranties or
representations of any kind or character, express or implied, with respect to
the Property, its physical condition, or expenses to be incurred with respect
thereto, or its obligations or any other matter or thing relating to or
affecting the same except as specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any
documents executed and delivered by Seller at Closing. There are no oral
agreements, warranties or representations between Seller and Purchaser
collateral to or affecting the Property except as may otherwise be expressly set
forth in this Agreement or in any documents executed and delivered by Seller at
Closing. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any
documents executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, Seller has not made and
does not hereby make any express or implied representations or warranties
whatsoever with respect to the condition of the Property. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this
Agreement or in any documents executed and delivered by Seller at the Closing,
Seller makes no representation or warranty regarding size, location, zoning,
compliance with environmental laws or any other laws including the Americans
with Disabilities Act, or regarding quality of construction, workmanship,
merchantability, or fitness for any particular purpose or as to the adequacy,
accuracy or sufficiency of any Plans and Specifications relating to the Property
(including structural designs and plans and environmental reports) which may be
delivered or made available to Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or
the Property. Purchaser has taken into account and has assumed the additional
risks inherent in consummating this transaction without relying upon any
representations or warranties by Seller or Seller's agents or contractors, or by
any other person(s) except as specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any
documents executed and delivered by Seller at Closing. Except as otherwise
specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any documents executed and
delivered by Seller at Closing, Purchaser acknowledges that Seller will not and
is under no obligation to deliver any other items or matters to Purchaser in
connection with Purchaser's review of the Property during the Inspection Period
or as a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to close under this
Agreement.
Although Seller is conveying the Real Property to
Purchaser in an "AS IS" condition as of the date of the
Closing, at the Closing Purchaser and Seller shall (a) enter into a Master Lease
to give Seller, as the lessee, an opportunity to lease and complete the then
Unleased Space, as defined in the Master Lease and (b) enter into an Escrow
Agreement to give Seller an opportunity to complete the incomplete work or
correct any defective work in the Condominium Units or Common Areas, which
Uncompleted and Defective Work, if any, will be specifically described in the
Escrow Agreement.
2.4 Assumption or Termination of Service Contracts. No later than
thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, Purchaser shall designate by
written notice to Seller (the "Purchaser's Service Contract Notice") those
contracts which Purchaser shall assume at Closing and which shall be Condominium
Units Designated Service Contracts. Seller shall terminate as of the Closing
Date any service agreements, maintenance or repair contracts, management
contracts, contracts for the purchase or delivery of labor, services, materials,
goods, inventory or supplies, equipment leases or rental agreements and similar
contracts which are not Condominium Units Designated Service Contracts. The
failure of Purchaser to give Purchaser's Service Contract Notice shall be deemed
to constitute Purchaser's election to have all such contracts terminated
effective upon the Closing Date.
3. Title.
3.1 Title Documents. Promptly after the execution of this
Agreement, Purchaser shall apply for, at Purchaser's expense, the following
items with respect to the title to the Real Property (collectively, the "Title
Documents"): (a) a commitment for an ALTA Form 1992 Owner's Policy (the "Title
Commitment") issued by, in Purchaser's sole discretion, either Lawyers Title
Insurance Corporation or Fidelity National Title Insurance Company of New York
(the "Title Company"); (b) an as-built" ALTA Survey of the Real Property (the
"As-Built Survey") prepared by a registered surveyor in accordance with New York
law and the "1999 Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ASCM Land Title
Surveys" jointly established and adopted by the American Land Title Association
and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping, and the Accuracy Standards
(as adopted by the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on
Surveying and Mapping) of an Urban Survey. To assist Purchaser in complying with
the provisions hereof, at the time the parties hereto execute this Agreement,
Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the latest copy of the survey Seller has in
its possession.
3.2 Title Review. Purchaser shall have until the later of (a) the
expiration of the Inspection Period or (b) fifteen (15) days after receipt of
the Title Documents, including an executed copy in recordable form of the
Restated Declaration and the As Built Survey ("Purchaser's Title & Survey Notice
Date") in which to examine title to the Property and in which to deliver to
Seller a written notice (the "Purchaser's Title & Survey Notice") of Purchaser's
objection to any matters affecting title to the Property ("Title or Survey
Objections"). The failure of Purchaser to give the Purchaser's Title & Survey
Notice on or before the Purchaser's Title & Survey Notice Date shall be deemed
to constitute Purchaser's approval of all title matters shown in the Title
Documents and Survey. If Purchaser raises any Title or Survey Objections, Seller
shall, within five (5) business days after Seller's receipt of the Purchaser's
Title & Survey Notice, give Purchaser written notice (the "Seller's Title &
Survey Response") of those Title or Survey Objections, if any, which Seller
elects to eliminate from the Title Policy (as defined in Paragraph 3.4 below)
and as exceptions to title to the Property. If Seller notifies Purchaser that
Seller will not cure some or all of the Title or Survey Objections, Purchaser
shall have five (5) business days after Purchaser's receipt of the Seller's
Title & Survey Response to review and approve the Seller's Title & Survey
Response. If Purchaser approves of the Seller's Title & Survey Response, Seller
covenants and agrees that on or before the Closing Date Seller shall eliminate
or remedy from the Title Policy and as exceptions to the Property any Title &
Survey Objections which Seller has elected in the Seller's Title & Survey
Response to cure. Except for those items which Seller expressly elects in
Seller's Title & Survey Response to cure and except as provided in Paragraph
3.6, Seller shall have no duty or obligation whatsoever to cure any matters of
title. If Seller does not elect to cure some or all of the Title & Survey
Objections and if Purchaser timely disapproves in writing of the Seller's Title
& Survey Response, then this Agreement shall be null and void, Purchaser shall
be entitled to a return of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money (as defined in Paragraph 4.1 below)
whereupon the parties hereto shall have no further rights, duties, obligations
or liabilities to one another hereunder except as specifically provided herein
to the contrary. The failure of Purchaser to provide written notice of
disapproval to Seller of the Seller's Title & Survey Response within such five
(5) business day period shall be deemed to constitute Purchaser's approval of
the Seller's Title & Survey Response.
3.3 Additional Title Objections. Purchaser shall have the right to
object to any new title exceptions (other than Permitted Exceptions as defined
in Section 3.5 hereof) first raised by the Title Company in any modification,
update, recertification or amendment to the Title Commitment (each an
"Additional Title Objection") by giving written notice (the "Purchaser's
Additional Title Objection Notice") to Seller after Purchaser's receipt of any
such modification, update, recertification or amendment. If Purchaser delivers
Purchaser's Additional Title Objection Notice to Seller setting forth any
Additional Title Objections, Seller may, but except as provided in Paragraph 3.6
below, shall not be obligated to, attempt to cure at or before the Closing, some
or all of such Additional Title Objections. If Seller does not notify Purchaser
in writing within fifteen (15) business days after Seller's receipt of
Purchaser's Additional Title Objection Notice that Seller is willing to so cure
any Additional Title Objections, Seller shall be deemed to have notified
Purchaser that Seller is unable or unwilling to cure such Additional Title
Objections. If necessary, the Closing Date shall be postponed to provide Seller
such fifteen (15) business day period. If Seller notifies or is deemed to have
notified Purchaser that Seller is unable or unwilling to cure any particular
Additional Title Objection, Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this
Agreement by delivering to Seller written notice of such decision within fifteen
(15) business days after the date of receipt of Seller's notice or the date
Seller is deemed to have received such notice. Purchaser's failure to deliver
within such time period such written notice to Seller electing to terminate this
Agreement shall be deemed Purchaser's waiver of Purchaser's election to
terminate this Agreement by reason of the Additional Title Objection which
Seller is unable or unwilling to cure. In the event of any such termination, the
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser and thereafter neither party shall
have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided
otherwise in this Agreement.
3.4 Title Policy. Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Property
shall be subject to and conditioned upon the Title Company's issuance, or
irrevocable and unconditional agreement to issue, an ALTA Form 1992 Owner's
Policy of Title Insurance with such endorsements reasonably requested by
Purchaser and which Seller and Title Company agree during the Inspection Period
to issue (the "Title Policy"), insuring Purchaser in the amount of the Purchase
Price (as defined in Paragraph 5 below) that the fee title to the Real Property
is vested in Purchaser as of the Closing, subject only to the Permitted
Exceptions. In the event of any failure of such condition in this Paragraph 3.4,
in addition to any rights Purchaser may have pursuant to Paragraph 3.6 below,
Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivering written
notice thereof to Seller and Escrow Agent on or prior to the Closing Date. In
the event of any such termination, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to
Purchaser and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or
obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement.
3.5 Permitted Exceptions. As used in this Agreement, the term
"Permitted Exceptions" shall mean (a) all zoning and other laws, rules and
regulations affecting the Real Property, provided same are not violated by the
existing Improvements and the use of the Real Property; (b) all matters
disclosed in the Title Documents which are approved or deemed approved by
Purchaser in accordance with Paragraph 3.2 above (other than Mandatory
Exceptions which Seller is obligated to eliminate, cure and cause to be removed
pursuant to Paragraph 3.6 below); (c) any new title exceptions first raised by
the Title Company in any modification, update, recertification or amendment to
the Title Commitment after the date of this Agreement and which Purchaser
approves in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3.3 above (other than
Mandatory Exceptions which Seller is obligated to eliminate, cure and cause to
be removed pursuant to Paragraph 3.6 below); (d) all Leases and the rights of
Tenants thereunder, as tenants only, except for the right of first refusal in
the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Restaurant Corp. Tenant Lease; (e) any survey exception in the Title
Policy resulting from Purchaser not obtaining an updated survey; (f) real estate
taxes for the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs which are not yet due and
payable (subject to adjustment as provided in Paragraph 8.7 below); and (g) the
exceptions listed in Exhibit H-1 attached hereto.
3.6 Mandatory Title Objections. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated to use all
commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure and cause the removal at or
before the Closing from the Title Policy and as exceptions to title to the Real
Property all of the following exceptions to title (collectively, the "Mandatory
Title Objections") and Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller's failure to
comply with Seller's obligations set forth below in this Paragraph 3.6 shall
constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement whereupon Purchaser shall be
entitled to Purchaser's remedies as provided in Paragraph 16 below: (a) any
judgments, bankruptcies or other returns against other persons or entities
having names the same as or similar to that of Seller and other exceptions to
title which may be removed as exception by delivery of the Seller's Title
Affidavit (as defined in Paragraph 6.7.5 below) by Seller to the Title Company;
(b) any exception to title which was caused by, resulted from or arose out of
(i) the grant by Seller or any prior owner of the Real Property to any person or
entity of a mortgage or other security interest affecting the Property, or (ii)
the performance of work upon all or any portion of the Real Property which
exception encumbers Seller's interest in the Real Property, or (iii) the grant
by Seller of any other lien or encumbrance on or interest in the Real Property
(other than Tenant Leases entered into by Seller with Purchaser's prior written
approval) prior to the Closing Date; (c) any judgment or judgments against
Seller and (d) any other exception or exceptions to title first arising after
the effective date of the Title Commitment which may be removed or satisfied
solely by the payment of a liquidated sum of money not in excess of Thirty-Five
Thousand Dollars ($35,000) for each such exception. Any Mandatory Title
Objection may be cured or eliminated by Seller by posting of a bond, undertaking
or cash escrow, with regard to such item provided such item is thereby caused to
be removed as a title exception from the Title Policy.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
Seller and Purchaser understand that the Condominium Declaration For ▇▇▇▇▇▇
Commons Condominium recorded on June 25, 2001 in Liber _______ of Conveyances at
Page _____ in the Office of the Clerk of the County of Westchester (Division of
Land Records), New York must be amended and modified prior to the Closing by a
First Amended and Restated Condominium Declaration For ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Commons
Condominium (the "Restated Declaration"). Seller agrees, at its cost and
expense, to have the Restated Declaration prepared, executed and recorded prior
to Closing and that the form and content thereof shall be approved by Purchaser,
the Title Company, the holders of Units 1 and 8, all required Tenants (including
the tenants of Unit 1 and 8) and all existing mortgagees of any Units. Because
the description of a Unit is being changed by the Restated Declaration and Unit
8 in being eliminated from the Condominium, Seller agrees that, if the Title
Company requires a reconveyance of Units 1 and 8 to insure title to Purchaser to
the Condominium Units without exception, Seller will comply with such request.
It is understood and agreed that, if the Restated Declaration excludes Unit 8,
its Appurtenant Limited Common Elements and certain land which is now a part of
the Common Elements, all references herein to that Unit as being a part of the
Condominium shall have no effect.
3.7 Removal of Title Objections. Seller acknowledges and agrees
that the willingness of the Title Company to "insure over" and issue the Title
Policy without exception for any Title Objection, any Additional Title Objection
or any Mandatory Title Objection which Seller is or elects to become obligated
to eliminate, cure and remove shall not, unless specifically agreed otherwise in
writing by Purchaser, by itself constitute the elimination, cure and removal of
such Title Objection or Mandatory Title Objection. Any Title Objection,
Additional Title Objection, or Mandatory Title Objection which Seller is or
elects to become obligated to eliminate, cure and remove must be released of
record or removed from title to the Real Property by payment or bonding or other
means acceptable to Purchaser.
4. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money.
4.1 Deposit of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money. Purchaser shall deposit with
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Marwell ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, P.C. (hereinafter also called "Escrow
Agent"), within two (2) business days after the Effective Date, the amount of
One hundred thousand and 00/100 ($100,000.00) Dollars ( the "Initial Deposit")
in cash by wire transfer in immediately available funds ( the "Initial ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Money"). In addition to the Initial Deposit, Purchaser, if it has not elected to
cancel this Agreement by the expiration of the Inspection Period, shall within
two (2) business days thereafter deposit with the Escrow Agent the additional
amount of Two hundred thousand and 00/100 ($200,000.00) Dollars (the "Additional
Deposit") in cash by wire transfer in immediately available funds (collectively
with the Initial Deposit, the "▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money"). If Purchaser shall fail to so
deposit the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money due under this Agreement with Escrow Agent on the
dates required, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by
delivering written notice to Purchaser. Upon receipt of the Initial Deposit and
upon receipt of the Additional Deposit as provided herein, Escrow Agent shall
execute the written acknowledgement by Escrow Agent in the form attached to this
Agreement to acknowledge that: (a) the Initial Deposit and a fully executed copy
of this Agreement have been received by Escrow Agent; (b) the Additional Deposit
has been received by Escrow Agent; (c) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money is being held subject
to clearance by Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and (d)
Escrow Agent agrees to be bound by this Agreement and to perform Escrow Agent's
obligations hereunder.
4.2 Deposit Account. Escrow Agent shall, promptly upon receipt of
the Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit, place the monies in an interest
bearing account at Citibank, N.A. The interest thus derived shall be added to
and increase the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money and thus be credited toward the Purchase Price
or, if this purchase and sale does not close, be paid to the party entitled to
the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser's
tax identification number is ▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; Seller's tax identification number is
▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Purchaser and Seller shall promptly execute and deliver all forms
reasonably requested by Escrow Agent in connection with depositing the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Money in an interest-bearing account. Purchaser shall pay all ordinary
administrative costs in connection with depositing the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money in an
interest bearing account, if any.
4.3 Disposition of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money. Upon the Closing, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Money shall be applied to the Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser at Closing.
Otherwise, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be applied as otherwise provided herein. If
this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser in accordance with Purchaser's right
to do so under the terms of this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned
to Purchaser. If the Closing fails to occur due to a default by Purchaser of
Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be
delivered to Seller. Subject to the first sentence of this Paragraph 4.3, if
either Purchaser or Seller makes a written demand upon Escrow Agent for
disbursement of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the
other party of such demand. If Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection
from the other party to the proposed payment within ten (10) business days after
such party's receipt of such notice, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make
such disbursement. If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within
such ten (10) business day period, or if for any other reason Escrow Agent in
good faith shall elect not to make such disbursement, Escrow Agent shall
continue to hold the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money as provided in Paragraph 4.2 above, until
otherwise directed by joint written instructions from Purchaser and Seller or a
final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or as
otherwise provided for herein. However, Escrow Agent shall have the right, at
any time, to deposit the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money with the clerk of the court having
jurisdiction in the county in which the Real Property is located. Escrow Agent
shall give written notice of such deposit to Seller and Purchaser and, upon such
deposit, Escrow Agent shall be relieved and discharged of all further
obligations hereunder as Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall have the right to
represent Seller in connection with any matter relating to this Agreement but,
if a dispute or disagreement arises between Seller and Purchaser as to who is
entitled to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money, Escrow Agent shall, before it represents Seller
in connection therewith, shall deposit the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money with the clerk of the
court as hereinabove provided.
4.4 Escrow Agent Responsibility. Escrow Agent shall be not liable
to either Purchaser or Seller in connection with its performance as Escrow Agent
hereunder, except in the event of Escrow Agent's gross negligence, bad faith,
willful misconduct and/or willful disregard of the escrow provisions set forth
in this Agreement. Escrow Agent may rely and/or act upon any instrument or
document reasonably believed by Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be executed
and/or delivered by the proper person. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to
indemnify, defend and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against any cost, loss
or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements) suffered or
incurred by Escrow Agent as a result of Escrow Agent being named in or as a
result of Escrow Agent commencing and prosecuting any litigation or proceeding
required or permitted under this Agreement, other than litigation against
Purchaser by Seller; provided, however, the foregoing indemnity will not apply
to any cost, loss or expense incurred by Escrow Agent as a result of Escrow
Agent's gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct and/or willful disregard
of the escrow provisions set forth in this Agreement. Once Escrow Agent has
tendered into the registry or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction all
money and/or property in Escrow Agent's possession under this Agreement or has
made delivery of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money in any other manner provided for herein,
Escrow Agent shall be deemed to have withdrawn as escrow agent hereunder and
shall be discharged from all duties and shall have no further liability
hereunder as Escrow Agent.
4.5 Real Estate Reporting Person. Seller's attorneys, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Marwell ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, P.C. is hereby designated the "real estate

of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Seller's attorneys shall file

4.6 Investment Liability. Purchaser and Seller do hereby certify
that they are aware that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverages
apply only to a maximum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for
each individual depositor. Further, Purchaser and Seller understand that Escrow
Agent assumes no responsibility for, nor will Purchaser or Seller hold Escrow
Agent liable for, any loss occurring which arises from the fact that the amount
of the account for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money may cause the aggregate amount of any
individual depositor's accounts to exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000) and that the excess amount is not insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation.
5. Purchase Price. (a) The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller, or
for the benefit of Seller, for all of the Condominium Units is TWENTY-TWO
MILLION and NO/100 ($22,000,000.00) DOLLARS (the "Purchase Price"). At the time
of the execution of this Agreement, it is expected that the purchase and sale
will be consummated at one (1) Closing, but it may be that, because of fire or
other casualty that the parties hereto elect to delay the Closing on a portion
of the Condominium Units so that more than one (1) Closing may be held.
(b) If, at the time of the Closing (i) there are any Tenants
in the buildings being purchased, which Tenants are (y) not yet in possession of
their demised premises but their Tenant Lease has been approved by Purchaser or
(z) in possession of their demised premises under Tenant Leases and are (I) not
yet paying fixed rent, CAM charges and prorata share of real estate taxes or
(II) are in default for more than the then current fixed rent, Common Area
Maintenance ("CAM") charges and prorata share of real estate taxes or (ii) any
space in the buildings being purchased has not yet been leased, Purchaser, as
landlord, and Seller, as tenant, shall enter into a lease (the "Master Lease")
the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit K, covering all of the space
described in (i) and (ii) above for a term of seven (7) years pursuant to which
Seller, as such tenant, shall pay the fixed rent, CAM charges and prorata share
of real estate taxes appurtenant to each such space as set forth on Exhibit E
hereof until such space has a Tenant approved by Purchaser and meeting the
Leasing Criteria set forth in Exhibit U, in possession paying rent on a current
basis, a certificate of occupancy has been issued therefor, the Tenant has
executed a Tenant Estoppel Certificate and evidence satisfactory to Purchaser is
delivered to evidence that the leasing commission has been paid in full. With
respect to the Tenants referred in (i) (z) above, such Tenants will have to have
been paying rent on a current basis for three (3) consecutive months and
evidence to that effect be delivered to Purchaser before the space covered by
such Tenant Lease will be released from the Master Lease.
(c) If, at the time of the Closing (i) there is any
uncompleted work required by the Plans & Specifications in any of the
Condominium Units or in the Common Elements or (ii) any of the work performed in
any of the Condominium Units or Common Elements is not acceptable to Purchaser's
Inspector, as described in Section 13.7 hereof (the "Uncompleted and Defective
Work"), Seller shall deposit into escrow with Purchaser an amount equal to one
and one-half times the estimated cost to complete and/or correct the Uncompleted
and Defective Work. The Escrow Agreement, in the form of Exhibit K-1 hereto,
entered into by the parties shall specify the amount escrowed for each item of
Uncompleted or Defective Work and such amount shall be released when the work
required has been completed and approved by Purchaser's Inspector.
(d) All space unleased as of the expiration of the Master
Lease shall be delivered to Purchaser in vacant broom-clean condition, unless
Seller and Purchaser shall agree in writing to the contrary.

Closing and Purchaser's obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement are subject to the timely satisfaction or written waiver by
the respective dates designated below of the conditions precedent for
Purchaser's benefit set forth below in this Paragraph 6.3 (the "Purchaser
Conditions Precedent").
6.3.1 Satisfactory Response From ▇.▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ General. No

these Units to said purchaser and solicit from the Attorney General a response
as to whether or not Seller is in violation of any regulations issued by the
said Attorney General. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser

acceptable to Purchaser.
6.3.2 Filing of As Built Plans and Specifications of
Condominium Units. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall file with the Westchester

filed prior to the Closing, that Condominium Unit shall be withdrawn from the
Closing and be included in a special Closing, on a date as the Purchaser and
Seller may mutually agree within ten (10) days after As Built Plans have been
filed, and all other applicable conditions of this Agreement have been met, at
the Purchase Price allocated thereto on Exhibit L and the Purchase Price paid at
that Closing shall be reduced by the amount allocated on Exhibit L hereto to the
Condominium Unit that does not have As Built Plans. In the event As Built Plans

a subdivision pursuant to which Unit 8, its Appurtenant Limited Common Elements
and certain other contiguous portions of the Common Elements, will be subdivided
from the remaining portion of the Condominium. Seller shall thereafter
diligently pursue such subdivision approval until a determination is made by the
Planning Board of the Town of ▇▇▇▇▇▇. If such subdivision is approved, the
approved subdivision map shall be filed by Seller in the Westchester County
Clerk's Office and the Restated Declaration shall be modified as necessary to
reflect such change. Before Seller shall file a proposed subdivision map with
the Planning Board, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a copy thereof for
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any
change thereafter made shall be subject to Purchaser's approval on the same
basis. It is a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to close that a
subdivision map be filed in accordance with the above.

shall eliminate the escrow for any work covered by such bond, provided that a
copy of such bond is delivered to Purchaser and Purchaser is reasonably
satisfied that it is adequately protected by such bond. If at the Closing any
Condominium Unit is not then completed, certificates of occupancy have not been
issued therefor and As Built Plans have not been filed in connection with such
Condominium Unit, prior to Purchaser's obligations to purchase such Unit, Seller
shall, at its cost and expense, complete all work, obtain all required
certificates of occupancy and file such As Built Plans to comply with the laws
applicable thereto. If any such work is not completed by Seller prior to the
expiration of the Escrow Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right to have such
work completed or repaired and pay for the same with the withheld monies. Any
balance remaining shall be turned over to Seller.
6.3.7 Seller's Deliveries. On or before the Closing
Date, Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser the documents described in
Paragraph 6.7 and delivered to Purchaser the items described in Paragraph 6.8

material respects subject to the terms of Paragraph 22 hereof. The
representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in this Agreement shall
survive the Closing, with respect to the Condominium Units purchased at the
Closing through and including the date which is twelve (12) months from the date
of the Closing, except that such representations and warranties shall continue
in effect in connection with space covered by the Master Lease and the work
covered by the Escrow Agreement for a period of twelve (12) months from the date
such space is released from the Master Lease or the escrowed monies are released
for the Uncompleted and Defective Work.
6.3.9 Covenants. As of the Closing Date, Seller
shall not be in default in the performance of any material covenant or
material agreement to be performed by Seller under this Agreement.
6.3.10 Tenant Estoppel Certificates. No later
than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date,
Purchaser shall have received estoppel certificates (the "Tenant Estoppel
Certificates"), dated not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing
Date, from all Tenants under the Leases of portions of the Condominium Units
included in the Closing. The Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit J hereto or alternatively upon the form of Estoppel
Certificate required to be provided by Tenants in accordance with the terms of
such Tenant's Lease; provided, however, if any Tenant Estoppel Certificate
received from a Tenant alleges, or contains any changed or inserted or deleted
language which constitutes or could be reasonably construed as an allegation of,
(A) a material default by Seller under the applicable Tenant Lease, or (B) facts
which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would
constitute a material default by Seller under the applicable Tenant Lease, or
(C) facts which are materially different (and less favorable to the landlord)
from the applicable information set forth in (i) any representation and warranty
made by Seller in Paragraph 12.1 below or (ii) the Tenant Estoppel Certificate
delivered to such Tenant for execution, then Purchaser shall have the option to
either approve the modified Tenant Estoppel Certificate and proceed with the
Closing or terminate this Agreement in accordance with Paragraph 6.6 below.
Seller shall deliver the proposed Tenant Estoppel Certificates to Purchaser for
Purchaser's review and approval prior to distributing the same to the Tenants
for execution and Seller shall use Seller's best efforts to obtain the executed
Tenant Estoppel Certificates from Tenants; provided, however, Seller shall not
be obligated to initiate suit or other proceedings, waive any rights or grant
any concessions to a Tenant or expend any out-of-pocket sums to obtain Tenant
Estoppel Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, despite Seller's best
efforts, Seller is unable to obtain executed Tenant Estoppel Certificates as
provided above Purchaser will consider, on a case by case basis accepting from
Seller estoppel certificates certifying to Purchaser the same information in the
respective unreturned Tenant Estoppel Certificates for up to twenty percent
(20%) of the Tenants. After the Closing, Seller may replace and substitute any
Seller executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate with a Tenant Estoppel Certificate
which has been executed by any of the Tenants, in which event Seller shall have
no further liability under the Seller furnished estoppel certificates.

enter into an Escrow Agreement Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an indemnity
agreement (the "Indemnity Agreement") in the form of Exhibit K-3 hereto,
executed by the Guarantors and Indemnitors pursuant to which they indemnify and

including attorneys' fees from any third party because of Seller's failure to
comply with its obligations under the Escrow Agreement. The Guaranty shall be
for the benefit of Purchaser and shall not expire until one (1) year after the
date the last space is released from the Master Lease and the Indemnity shall
not expire until one (1) year after the date of last release of monies from
escrow under the Escrow Agreement.
6.3.15 Postponement of Closing Date. Anything in
this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if as of the May 31, 2003 (a)
the Restated Declaration has not been recorded prior thereto or (b) As Built
Plans for all of the Condominium Units included in the Closing have not been
properly filed in the Westchester County Clerk's Office, or (c) the subdivision
referred to in Section 6.3.5 hereof has not yet been obtained, Seller or
Purchaser shall have the right, upon the delivery of a written notice to the
other to postpone the Closing Date for a period of time not exceeding three (3)
months to August 31, 2003 to give Seller an opportunity to comply with (a), (b)
and/or (c) above so that the Closing may proceed. In the event Seller has not
complied with clause (a), (b) and/or (c) by August 31, 2003, Purchaser shall
have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, by written notice to Seller
within ten (10) days thereafter, to further extend on one or more occasions the
time within which Seller has to comply with said provisions or terminate this
Agreement and receive back the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money. When Seller has complied with
clause (a),(b) or (c), as the case may be, it shall advise Purchaser in writing
giving reasonable evidence of such compliance and the parties shall reset the
Closing Date within ten (10) days thereafter. Notwithstanding the above, if
Seller has not filed As Built Plans with the said Westchester County Clerk by
the applicable Closing Date, as the same may be extended, covering all seven (7)
Condominium Units, Purchaser shall have the right, upon written notice to
Seller, to purchase at that time those Condominium Units upon which the said As
Built Plans have been filed and the Purchase Price at Closing shall be reduced
by the Purchase Price allocated to the unpurchased Condominium Units as set
forth on Exhibit L, and to thereafter purchase any unpurchased Condominium Units
within ten (10) days after As Built Plans have been filed therefor and all other
applicable conditions hereof have been met at the Purchase Price allocated
thereto on Exhibit L. In connection with any partial purchase as herein
contemplated, all adjustments shall be equitably apportioned.
6.3.16 Material Adverse Changes. Subject to the
terms of Paragraphs 6.3.17, 10 and 11 hereof, as of the Closing, Purchaser shall
have approved (a) any material adverse changes in the physical condition of the
Property and (b) any reclassification, rezoning or other statute, law, judicial
or administrative decision, proceeding, ordinance or regulation (including
amendments and modifications of any of the foregoing) pending, or proposed and
known to Seller, to be imposed by the governmental authorities or any public or
private utility having jurisdiction over the Property which would materially
adversely affect, in Purchaser's reasonable judgment, the current operation,
development, or use of the Property or which would impose any material
additional fees or charges on the Property or on Purchaser as the owner or
lessor of the Property ("Material Adverse Changes"). Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser specific written notice describing in reasonable detail any Material
Adverse Change which has occurred, promptly after Seller learns of such Material
Adverse Change, but in no event later than the Closing Date. The failure of
Purchaser to disapprove any Material Adverse Change by the said Closing Date
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of this Purchaser Condition Precedent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the terms of Paragraphs 6.3.17, 10
and 11 hereof, if any Material Adverse Change occurs prior to the applicable
Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Seller on the said Closing Date, time being of the essence,
and if Purchaser shall not so terminate on or prior to the Closing Date then
such Material Adverse Change shall be deemed approved and accepted by Purchaser
and Purchaser shall not have any right to refuse to Close under the terms of
this Agreement due to the occurrence of such Material Adverse Change. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if Purchaser becomes aware of a Material
Adverse Change after the Closing which occurred prior to such Closing, Purchaser
reserves all of its rights hereunder against Seller for not bringing the same to
Purchaser's attention prior to said Closing.
6.3.17 Judicial Proceedings. As of the Closing
Date, no judicial or administrative suit, action, investigation, inquiry or
other proceeding shall have been instituted by any person or entity with respect

result of breach by Purchaser of any of Purchaser's representations, warranties
or covenants herein.

Purchaser and Seller shall enter into the Master Lease and the Escrow Agreement
which will enable Purchaser to advance the full Purchase Price for the
Condominium Units purchased at the Closing.

further rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement. If Purchaser and Seller acting reasonably and in good faith

then such loss shall be treated as a Major Casualty under the terms hereof. If
the Improvements are damaged by any casualty which does not constitute a Major
Casualty or if Purchaser has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
the preceding sentence but Purchaser does not exercise such right, then this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and, after the amount of the

Seller and Purchaser, at the Closing, Purchaser shall take title to the Property
subject to such casualty to the Property without any abatement to the Purchase

any rental loss insurance paid to Purchaser or to terminate such Tenant's Tenant
Lease, or (v) the insurance proceeds will not be payable prior to the scheduled
Closing Date. Seller shall give notice to Purchaser promptly after the

If necessary, the Closing Date shall be postponed until Seller has given the

days described in this Paragraph 10 has expired. If there is a casualty to any
Unit after the Closing but prior to the date Seller has released the last space

Units at the Closing and postpone the Closing of the damaged Condominium Units
or postpone the Closing until the damage has been repaired and the Tenants

advise Seller within ten (10) business days after receipt of notice of such
damage as to Purchaser's decision.
(c) Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding,
if a Major Casualty shall occur and Seller can display to, the reasonable
discretion of Purchaser's Inspector, that it can within six (6) months from the
date of the casualty, restore the damaged property, get all Tenants back into
their demised premises on a rent paying basis and deliver to the Purchaser
current Tenant Estoppel Certificates confirming such facts, Purchaser agrees
that it shall not elect to cancel this Agreement. If Seller is not able to
display that it is able to comply with the above, or Seller commences such
restoration after compliance with the above but has not in fact satisfied the
above conditions by the expiration of the six-month period, Purchaser shall have
the option to (1) extend the time within which Seller has, to display that it
can comply with the above or satisfy the conditions set forth above after
commencing restoration, (2) close the purchase and sale in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement or (3) cancel the Agreement and receive back the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

notice to Seller within fifteen (15) days after Seller gives notice to Purchaser
of Seller's receipt of such notice of intent or the commencement of such
proceedings (along with copies of any pleadings or material written
communications from the condemning authority), to terminate this Agreement, in
which event this Agreement shall terminate, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned
to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. If Purchaser
has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence but
Purchaser does not exercise such right, then this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect and, at the Closing, the condemnation award (or, if not
theretofore received, the right to receive such award) payable on account of the
taking shall be transferred to Purchaser and Purchaser shall take title to the
Property subject to such taking without any abatement to the Purchase Price.
Seller shall give notice to Purchaser promptly after Seller's receiving notice
of intent or notice of the commencement of any proceedings for the taking by
exercise of the power of eminent domain of all or any part of the Property.

Purchaser may elect by giving notice to Seller) after Seller has given the

taking and make the determination as to whether to terminate this Agreement. If

Property and the taking of all action to be taken by Purchaser hereunder.

12.3 Continuing Effect. The express representations and warranties
made by Seller and Purchaser in this Paragraph 12 are in addition to any other
representations and warranties of Seller or Purchaser made elsewhere herein. The
truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties made by Seller and
Purchaser in this Agreement shall constitute a condition to the Closing and
shall not merge into the execution and delivery of the Deed or the other
instruments and documents to be executed and delivered at Closing and shall
survive the Closing through and including the date which is twelve (12) months
from said Closing Date, except those representations and, warranties, which
expire twelve (12) months after the pertinent space is released from the Master
Lease or the work is completed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and expires
twelve (12) months after the escrowed funds therefor are released from escrow,
and shall automatically expire upon the expiration of said twelve (12) month
period unless prior thereto Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, has
delivered written notice to the other party of a breach or claim thereunder.
13. Seller Operating Covenants. From and after the date hereof, Seller
agrees as follows with respect to the ownership, use, maintenance, management
and operation of the Property:
13.1 Operation and Maintenance. Seller shall or require that its
Tenants (a) keep the Property insured against fire, vandalism and other loss,
damage and destruction with the same coverage, policy limits and deductible
amounts as are currently maintained by Seller, (b) use Seller's commercially
reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable laws, statutes and ordinances
and other governmental rules, restrictions and authorizations and regulations in
effect as of the date hereof and to keep in full force and effect all Permits in
effect with respect to the Property, and (c) provide all services and continue
to operate, manage and maintain the Property (including all mechanical equipment
and systems within the Improvements) in good order and condition such that the
Property shall be in the same condition on the Closing Date as on the date
hereof, reasonable wear and tear excepted.
13.2 Amendment of Service Contracts. Seller shall not, without
Purchaser's prior written consent, extend or modify any existing service
contract relating to the Property or enter into any new service contract
relating to the Property which cannot be terminated on less than thirty (30)
days' notice without imposition of a premium or penalty. Seller shall provide
Purchaser with written notice of and a copy of any new service contract entered
into by Seller relating to the Property, notwithstanding that it can be
terminated on less than thirty (30) days' notice.
13.3 Sale, Transfer or Encumbrance. Seller shall not sell,
encumber, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any portion of the Property,
or any interest therein, without Purchaser's prior written consent (which
consent may be withheld in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion).
13.4 Renovations or Alterations. Seller shall not undertake or
commence any material renovations or alterations at the Real Property, except
those necessary to comply with the Tenant Leases or applicable governmental
regulations or as permitted pursuant hereto.
13.5 Change in Laws. Seller shall not voluntarily consent to any
change in any governmental ordinances, rules, authorizations, permits, licenses,
restrictions, grants or regulations relating to building, zoning and land use
affecting the development, use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Property or to any
material change in any Permit, except that Seller may apply for and obtain a
subdivision pursuant to which Unit 8 and its appurtenances are subdivided from
the remaining portion of the Condominium.
13.6 Tenant Leases. Seller shall not (unless required under the
terms of the Tenant Lease), without the prior approval of Purchaser, which
approval may be withheld or conditioned in Purchaser's sole and absolute
discretion, in any respect execute any additional lease affecting the Real
Property or amend, modify or terminate, or waive any rights under, a Tenant
Lease. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller shall not
consent (unless required under the terms of a Tenant Lease) to any assignment or
sublease requested by a Tenant without the prior approval of Purchaser, which
approval may not be unreasonably withheld. Seller shall not, without Purchaser's
prior written consent (which consent may be withheld or conditioned in
Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion) (i) apply all or any portion of any
Tenant Security Deposit to any delinquent rentals or to cure any other default
under any Tenant Lease, or (ii) accept payment of rentals or other sums due from
any Tenant in advance of more than one (1) month of the due date. Unless
required under the terms of such Tenant Lease, Seller shall not renew or extend
a Tenant Lease, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, without
the prior approval of Purchaser, which approval may not be unreasonably
withheld. Unless requested under the terms of such Tenant Lease, after the date
which is five (5) business days prior to the expiration of the Inspection
Period, Seller shall not renew or extend a Tenant Lease without the prior
approval of Purchaser, which may be withheld by Purchaser in its sole and
absolute discretion. Purchaser must respond to a request by Seller for the
approval by Purchaser of a proposed extension or renewal within two (2) business
days of the request by Seller for such approval. If Purchaser does not respond
to Seller's request for approval within such two (2) business day period, then
the proposed renewal or extension shall be deemed approved by Purchaser. The
foregoing notwithstanding, Seller, without the consent of Purchaser, shall have
the right (a) to enter into a new Tenant Lease for the unleased space in the
Condominium Units, using Seller's standard form lease at the rental rates
acceptable to Purchaser and in accordance with the Leasing Criteria set forth in
Exhibit U hereof, and (b) to amend Tenant Leases for such adjustments as Seller
deems reasonable and prudent to accommodate the substantial completion of the
tenant fit-up required under such leases and the actual rent commencement date
of such leases, provided, however, such amendments do not adversely affect the
obligations of Tenants to pay rent from and after the Closing Date.
13.7 Construction Completion. Except for tenant installations in
unleased space, Seller agrees to complete the construction of the Improvements
to the buildings, and the improvements to the Common Elements, in accordance
with the Plans and Specifications prior to the Closing and fit-up of tenanted
spaces in accordance with Tenant Leases and punchlist items, if any, required to
be performed under Tenant Leases. Purchaser shall have the right to have
Purchaser's Inspector monitor construction and reasonably certify completion in
accordance with the Plans and Specifications. Purchaser agrees that it will rely
on the Bonds, the Indemnity Agreement and the Escrow Agreement in connection
with incomplete site work. Purchaser has designated ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, A.I.A. as
Purchaser's Inspector.

disbursements, asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by
Purchaser by reason of or resulting from (a) liabilities arising from or as a

the later of the Closing or the date such space was released from the Master
Lease, asserted by any person or persons claiming under or with respect to the
Tenant Leases, (b) claims by third parties for personal injuries or property
damages relating to Seller or the Real Property that arise or accrue prior to
the later of the Closing or the date such space was released from the Master
Lease for those involving space covered by the Master Lease other than those
directly caused by Purchaser's entry upon or inspection of the Real Property

property damages relating to Seller or the Real Property caused by Seller or its
contractors occurring after the Closing Date but prior to the date Seller
completes all work on the Real Property.

agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from and against all
demands, claims, actions, causes of action, assessments, losses, damages,

from or as a result of Purchaser's or Purchaser's managing agent's acts or
omissions and arising after the later of the Closing, or the date such space was
released from the Master Lease, asserted by any person or persons claiming under
or with respect to the Tenant Leases; (b) claims by third parties for personal
injuries or property damages relating to periods after the Closing, except those

exercisable in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, to assign this
Agreement and all of Purchaser's rights or obligations hereunder, on any one or
more occasions to a wholly owned subsidiary, or as provided in Section 15.2.
From and after each such assignment, all references herein to Purchaser shall be
deemed to be references to such assignee, provided however, that such assignment
shall not release the assignor from its obligations and liabilities hereunder
and the assignor shall remain liable for such obligations and liabilities until
such assignee performs all of Purchaser's obligations hereunder or the
assignee's performance is excused pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
15.2 Assignment and Tax Free Exchange. It may be the intent of
Seller and Purchaser to utilize the Qualifying Exchange, as provided for in
Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") in connection with
the conveyance of the Property. Purchaser and Seller will reasonably cooperate
with each other if either elects to utilize such Qualifying Exchange in
connection with the conveyance of the Property, including, but not limited to,
the assignment of this Agreement to a Qualified Intermediary as defined in the
Code, the closing of the sale through such Qualified Intermediary and the
re-assignment of this Agreement from such Qualified Intermediary. Purchaser and
Seller respectively hereby consents to (a) assignment of this Agreement to such
Qualified Intermediary, (b) the re-assignment of this Agreement from such
Qualified Intermediary to Seller or Purchaser respectively and (c) the taking of
title by Seller in the Replacement Property directly in Seller's name. The
closing of this transaction is not contingent on such exchange and such exchange
shall not delay the closing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate with
each other's attempt to facilitate a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of
the Internal Revenue Code. In connection therewith, Seller and Purchaser agree
to execute such documents, or perform such acts, as may be reasonably necessary
to effect said exchange. Provided however, that neither party shall bear any
cost or liability in connection with its cooperation in facilitating such an
exchange, and that such exchange shall not delay the scheduled Closing Date
without the approval of both parties.
Seller shall not be required to execute, undertake or
assume any obligation or liability in connection with
the Purchaser's tax deferred exchange and in no event shall (A) Seller incur any
expense or liability in connection with Purchaser's Qualifying Exchange, (B)
Seller take title to any property or (C) Purchaser's inability to consummate its
Qualifying Exchange affect or excuse any of its obligations under this
Agreement. If Purchaser desires to participate in a Qualifying Exchange, then,
prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall provide written notice thereof to Seller,
together with copies of all documents relating thereto. In the event of any
permitted assignment of this Agreement by Purchaser, Purchaser shall remain
primarily liable for all obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement,
notwithstanding any such Assignment.
It is understood and agreed that if either party
elects to involve this transaction in a tax deferral
exchange, the obligations hereunder involving the execution of the Master Lease
and Escrow Agreement by the parties hereto shall not be affected nor shall the
obligations of Seller and Purchaser to perform its obligations under this
Agreement be affected.
Purchaser shall not be required to execute, undertake
or assume any obligation or liability in connection
with the Seller's tax deferred exchange and in no event shall (A) Purchaser
incur any expense or liability in connection with Seller's Qualifying Exchange,
(B) Purchaser take title to any property or (C) Seller's inability to consummate
its Qualifying Exchange affect or excuse any of its obligations under this
Agreement. If Seller desires to participate in a Qualifying Exchange, then,
prior to the Closing, Seller shall provide written notice thereof to Purchaser,
together with copies of all documents relating thereto. In the event of any
permitted assignment of this Agreement by Seller, Seller shall remain primarily
liable for all obligations of Seller under this Agreement, notwithstanding any
such Assignment.
15.3 No Other Assignment. Except as provided in Paragraph 15.1 and
15.2, neither Purchaser nor Seller shall assign all or any part of this
Agreement or any of their rights or obligations hereunder, or any interest
therein, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written
consent of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, and any such assignment contrary
to the terms hereof shall be null and void and of no force or effect. Except as
the other party may otherwise agree in writing, in no event shall any assignment
by Purchaser or Seller of all or any part of this Agreement or of any of their
rights or obligations under this Agreement, whether before or after the Closing,
release Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, from any of their respective
liabilities or obligations hereunder.
16. Remedies.
16.1 Seller's Default. If Seller shall fail to consummate this
Agreement for any reason, except Purchaser's default or a termination of this
Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to an express right to do so under the
provisions hereof, Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedies (except for Seller's
indemnity obligations under Paragraphs 14 and 17 hereof) shall be to either: (i)
terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice of termination to Seller,
with a copy to Escrow Agent, in which event all of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be
returned to Purchaser, or (ii) elect to pursue specific performance. Purchaser
shall have the right to seek an order or decree of specific performance
requiring Seller to consummate the transaction contemplated herein, inasmuch as
the parties recognize and acknowledge that there is no adequate remedy at law to
compensate fully Purchaser for a breach by Seller of Seller's covenants under
this Agreement.
16.2 Purchaser's Default. If Purchaser should fail to consummate
this Agreement for any reason, except Seller's default or the termination of
this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the
terms and provisions hereof, then Seller, as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy
(except for Purchaser's indemnity obligations under Paragraphs 2.1, 14 and 17
which shall survive such termination), may terminate this Agreement by delivery
of written notice of termination to Purchaser, with a copy to Escrow Agent, in
which event Seller shall be entitled to retain the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money as liquidated
damages. The parties agree that Seller will suffer damages in the event of
Purchaser's default hereunder and that the amount of such damages are difficult
or impossible to determine. Accordingly, the parties agree that liquidated
damages in the amount of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money is a reasonable estimate of Seller's
loss in the event of Purchaser's default and is not a penalty and is intended as
full liquidated damages except for Purchaser's indemnity obligations under
Paragraph 2.1 which shall survive such termination.
17. Real Estate Commissions. Each party hereto represents and warrants to
the other that it has not authorized any broker or finder to act on its behalf
in connection with the sale and purchase hereunder and that such party has not
dealt with any broker or finder purporting to act on behalf of any other party
in such a manner as to cause a claim for commission to arise. Purchaser
represents that Purchaser has made no understandings, agreements or arrangements
with any party for the payment of any fees or commissions in connection with
this transaction. Seller represents that Seller has made no understandings,
agreements or arrangements with any party for the payment of any fees or
commissions in connection with this transaction. Each party hereto shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party from and against any and all
claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses of any kind or character
arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding
alleged to have been made by such party or on its behalf with any broker or
finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.
18. No Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied,
is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their
respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by
reason of this Agreement.
19. Notice. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder
shall be given in writing, and shall be given by (a) personal delivery, (b)
overnight courier delivery service with proof of delivery, (c) United States
mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested or
(d) facsimile transmission (provided that such facsimile transmission is
confirmed by overnight courier delivery service in the manner previously

▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
Attn: ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Re: Amendment to Purchase and Sale Contract
Dated October 15, 2002 as amended ("Contract")
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Commons Condominium
Dear ▇▇▇:
After our meeting with the representatives of the Town of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, we agreed to
proceed based upon the current conditions of the Contract which require the
recording of a Restated Declaration as set forth in the Contract and the
subdivision of Unit 8 so that the land originally described in the Condominium
Declaration dated June 6, 2001 as Unit 8 will not be a part of the Condominium.
We have agreed that the legal description for the area being subdivided out will
match the legal description of the ground lease for the gas station now
occupying Unit 8.
We have subsequently discussed our mutual desire to close this transaction as
quickly as possible and have come to certain understandings in the event Urstadt
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Properties Inc. ("Purchaser") elects to Close the transaction prior to
the completion of the Subdivision of Unit 8 and its removal as part of the
Restated Declaration ("Subdivision Completion"). We have discussed a mutual
desire to Close on June 13, 2003 presuming all other Purchaser Conditions
Precedent have been met and Seller has complied with all other Closing
obligations prior to such date so that Purchaser may be in a position to give
Seller an appropriate notice of its election to Close prior to Subdivision
Completion in sufficient time so that we may Close by such date.
This letter will serve to confirm our agreements regarding the obligations of
Columbia ▇▇▇▇▇▇, L.L.C. ("Seller") and Purchaser under the Contract at Closing
in the event that Purchaser elects to Close prior to Subdivision Completion.
Columbia ▇▇▇▇▇▇, L.L.C.
Page 2
June 19, 2003
In consideration for the agreements made herein and other valuable consideration
the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Purchaser and Seller agree as
follows:
(1) Purchaser in its sole discretion may elect to Close prior to Subdivision
Completion by giving Seller written notice of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding
such election, Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Closing Date as set
forth in paragraph 6.3.15 of the Contract or as otherwise provided in the
Contract in the event that any Purchaser Conditions Precedent or other Closing
Obligations of Seller have not been met, except for Subdivision Completion.
(2) The following matters shall be additional Purchaser Conditions Precedent
under the Contract:
(a) Seller agrees to perform all of the site plan compliance
requirements and work punch list items set forth on Exhibit A
attached hereto ("Site Plan Requirements" and "Punch List
Items") all of which work must be completed and approved by
Purchaser's Inspector. Seller agrees that if on the Closing
Date, as same may be accelerated by Purchaser, any of the
Site Plan Requirements and the Punch List Items have not been
completed, Seller shall at Closing, put in escrow with
Purchaser's attorney or the Title Company (at Purchaser's
election) the sum of Thirty Four Thousand ($34,000.00) Dollars
pursuant to an Escrow Agreement substantially in the form of
Exhibit B attached hereto to assure completion of the Site
Plan Requirements and Punch List Items. In such event, the
Site Plan Requirements and Punch List Items must be
completed by Seller, at its expense, and approved by
Purchaser's Inspector no later than thirty (30) days after the
actual Closing Date. This date may be extended by the Seller
for a period of up to sixty (60) additional days in the
event Seller is diligently proceeding to complete the work by
written notice to Purchaser no later than twenty-five (25)
days after the actual Closing Date. As the Site Plan
Requirements and Punch List Items are completed, escrow funds
shall be released to Seller equal to the Seller's cost to
complete the item as reasonably approved by Purchaser's
Inspector. If any of the Site Plan Requirements and Punch List
Items are not completed within thirty (30) days after
the actual Closing Date, as said date may be extended by
Seller by written notice as above provided, the escrow
agreement shall provide that Purchaser may draw upon the escrow
amount and complete the Site Plan Requirements and the
Punch List Items. Any money remaining in the escrow account
after Purchaser completes the Site Plan Requirements and
Punch List Items shall be released to Seller.
Columbia ▇▇▇▇▇▇, L.L.C.

June 19, 2003
(b) Prior to Closing, Seller will deliver the missing lease documents set
forth in Exhibit C attached hereto.
(c) (i) Seller must at Closing deliver for the benefit of Purchaser

2) Peeling, warping, delaminating, detachment or molding (either interior or
exterior surfaces) of Hardi-Plank exterior siding.
(ii)Seller shall cause the Warranties referenced in the attached
letter dated June 11, 2003 by Carlisle Syntec Incorporated to
International Roofing Co. ("Warranty Transfer Letter") to be
transferred to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after the Closing
Date. Seller agrees to comply with the requirements for transfer
set forth in the Warranty Transfer Letter including payment of all
applicable warranty transfer fees. Seller shall also cause
Carlisle Syntec Incorporated to deliver directly to Purchaser
within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date a roof warranty for
Building Unit #5 upon the same terms and conditions as the other
warranties set forth in the Warranty Transfer Letter and which
shall expire in 2018, all at Seller's expense.
(d) Seller will comply with the Title and Survey requirements set
forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.
(e) Seller and Purchaser agree that it is a Purchaser Condition
Precedent that all of the retail space at the Condominium Units
shall be leased in accordance with the Leasing Criteria (or Master
Leased in accordance with Section 5(b) of the Contract) and built
out as required under the Contract and each respective lease,
provided however, it is agreed that a single space not exceeding
2,000 sq. ft. and having a minimum store frontage of not less than
eighteen (18) feet, may be unleased ("unleased space") on the
Closing Date and Seller shall not be required to enter into a
Master Lease for such unleased space pursuant to Section 5 (b) of
the Contract provided that the unleased space has been built out
to Vanilla Shell specifications by Seller prior to the Closing
Date.
Columbia ▇▇▇▇▇▇, L.L.C.
Page 4
June 19, 2003
Except with regard to such unleased space, nothing contained
herein shall diminish, modify, change or waive Seller's obligation
to enter into a Master Lease as required under Section 5(b) of the
Contract in the circumstances described therein, which obligations
shall continue.
(f) In the event that Purchaser elects in its sole discretion to
Close prior to Subdivision Completion, Seller agrees that the
Purchase Price shall be reduced by $200,000.00 and Seller shall be
under no further obligation to pursue Subdivision Completion,
except that Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in the event
that Purchaser elects in its sole discretion to pursue Subdivision
Completion and provided Seller is not responsible for any expenses
related thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Seller agrees that it is a post closing
obligation of Seller to complete and deliver to Purchaser, within
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, as built plans for all
the Units and Common Elements, at Seller's expense.
The foregoing requirements are in addition to and shall not in any way limit
Seller's or Purchaser's obligations under the Contract or the other Purchaser
Conditions Precedent set forth in the Contract.
(3) The Contract is also amended as follows:
(a) Exhibit U "Leasing Criteria" as attached to the Contract is amended
to add a number 8 as follows:
"8. Space dimensions and configuration of any remaining leased
space shall be rectangular in shape (except that any such space
may have a rear corridor required for ingress and egress) and
having a minimum store frontage of not less than eighteen (18)
feet".
(b) Exhibit G to the Contract "Plans and Specifications" shall be
deemed to refer to said Plans and Specifications
as revised as of the date hereof.
(4) Seller agrees that notwithstanding the requirements of Section 4.1 of the
Contract, Purchaser shall have until the earlier of (i) three (3) business days
after the full execution of this Agreement or (ii) the Closing Date to deposit
with the Escrow Agent the Additional Deposit in the amount of $200,000.
(5) Except as provided herein, the Contract is not otherwise amended and as
amended is ratified and confirmed.
Columbia ▇▇▇▇▇▇, L.L.C.

June 19, 2003
(6) Seller's obligations under paragraph 2(a); 2(c)(ii); 2(f) and paragraph 8
shall survive the Closing.
(7) Supplementing the provisions of Section 15.2 of the Contract, Seller
acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser may assign the Contract to a wholly owned
subsidiary of Purchaser (hereinafter referred to as "Purchaser") and also
utilize the Qualifying Exchange, as provided in Section 1031 of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Code, including a so called "reverse exchange", in connection
with the conveyance of the Property and in connection therewith Purchaser may
assign the Contract to a qualified intermediary or a qualified exchange
accommodation title holder (as defined in the Code) or a limited liability
company wholly owned by such qualified exchange title holder (Intermediary). It
is further agreed that the Contract, and any documents executed at Closing by
Seller shall run to the benefit of Purchaser and may be assigned back to
Purchaser by such Intermediary. Seller will at Closing, if directed by the
Intermediary, execute with and deliver to Purchaser any of the documents Seller
is required to deliver at Closing.
(8) Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in its efforts with Big V
Supermarkets Inc. or ShopRite Supermarkets, Inc. and its environmental insurers
to have Purchaser named as a first named insured in place of being an additional
insured by assignment from Seller under the policies of the Insurance attached
hereto as Exhibit G.
(9) Capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the
Contract except as otherwise set forth herein.
Please evidence your agreement to the foregoing by signing in the place provided
and returning a copy to me via facsimile which delivery shall have the same
force and effect as the delivery of original signatures.
