Section 3.3 No Liability for Exception Matters.

As used herein, the term “Exception Matter” shall refer to a matter which would make a representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement untrue or incorrect and which is disclosed to Buyer in the Due Diligence Materials or otherwise or discovered by Buyer before the Closing, including, without limitation, matters disclosed in any tenant estoppel certificate or from interviews with the Tenant, property managers or any other person. If Buyer first obtains knowledge of any material Exception Matter after the close of the Contingency Period and prior to Closing and such Exception Matter was not contained in the Due Diligence Materials, Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement on the basis thereof, upon written notice to Seller within five (5) days following Buyer’s discovery of such Exception Matter or the Closing, whichever occurs first, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, unless within five (5) days after receipt of such notice or the Closing, as the case may be, Seller notifies Buyer in writing that it elects to cure or remedy such Exception Matter. Seller shall be entitled to extend the Closing Date (as defined in Section 8.2 below) for up to fifteen (15) business days in order to cure or remedy any Exception Matter. Buyer’s failure to give notice within five (5) days after it has obtained knowledge of an Exception Matter shall be deemed a waiver by Buyer of such Exception Matter. Seller shall have no obligation to cure or remedy any Exception Matter, even if Seller has notified Buyer of Seller’s election to cure or remedy any Exception Matter (except as specifically provided in Section 4.1(c) hereof), and, subject to Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement as set forth above, Seller shall have no liability whatsoever to Buyer with respect to any Exception Matters. Upon any termination of this Agreement, neither party shall have any further rights nor obligations hereunder, except as provided in Section 6.1, Section 9.3 and Section 9.9 below. If Buyer obtains knowledge of any Exception Matter before the Closing, but nonetheless elects to proceed with the acquisition of the Property, Seller shall have no liability with respect to such Exception Matter, notwithstanding any contrary provision, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any Other Documents (as defined in Section 9.19 below).

Section 3.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties of Sale.

The representations and warranties of Seller contained herein or in any estoppel delivered pursuant to Section 8.4 below or in any Other Documents shall survive for a period of nine (9) months after the Closing. Any claim which Buyer may have at any time against Seller for a breach of any such representation or warranty, whether such breach is known or unknown, which is not specifically asserted by written notice to Seller within such nine (9) month period shall not be valid or effective, and Seller shall have no liability with respect thereto.

Section 3.5 Seller’s Knowledge.

For purposes of this Agreement and any document delivered at Closing, whenever the phrase “to the best of Seller’s knowledge” or the “knowledge” of Seller or words of similar import are used, they shall be deemed to mean and are limited to the current actual knowledge only of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, as Vice President, the times indicated only, and not any implied, imputed or constructive knowledge of such individuals or of Seller or any Seller Related Parties (as defined in Section 3.7 below), and without any independent investigation or inquiry having been made or any implied duty to investigate, make any inquiries or review the Due Diligence Materials, except that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has reviewed the representations and warranties of Seller contained herein with the Seller’s property manager of the Property.

ARTICLE IV

TITLE

Section 4.1 Conditions of Title.

(a) Upon execution of this Agreement, within ten (10) days of the Effective Date Seller shall deliver to Buyer an updated preliminary title report or commitment (the “Title Report”) from the Title Company, which shall be delivered to Seller, together with copies of all underlying documents relating to title exceptions referred to therein, promptly upon Buyer’s receipt thereof. Seller shall furnish to Buyer within the Delivery Period the existing ALTA survey of the Property in Seller’s possession (the “Existing ALTA Survey”). Buyer may, within three (3) business days of receipt of the Existing ALTA Survey, order a plat or survey of the Property or any update thereto from a duly licensed surveyor (the “Survey”) if desired by Buyer. If obtained by Buyer, Buyer shall provide Seller a copy of the Survey, which shall be certified to the Title Company, Buyer and Seller. If timely ordered by Buyer (and Seller receives sufficient evidence of the same from Buyer) and Closing occurs, Seller shall pay the entire cost of the Survey. If Closing does not occur, Buyer or Buyer fails to timely order the Survey, Buyer shall pay the entire cost of the Survey.

(b) Within ten (10) business days prior to the last day of the Contingency Period (the “Title Review Date”), or five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of the Title Report and Survey, whichever occurs first, Buyer shall furnish Seller with a written statement of objections, if any, to the title to the Property, including, without limitation, any objections to any matter shown on the Survey (collectively, “Objections”). In the event the Title Company amends or updates the Title Report after the Title Review Date (each, a “Title Report Update”), Buyer shall furnish Seller with a written statement of Objections to any matter first raised in a Title Report Update within three (3) business days after its receipt of such Title Report Update (each, a “Title Update Review Period”). Should Buyer fail to notify Seller in writing of any Objections in the Title Report prior to the Title Review Date, or to any matter first disclosed in a Title Report Update prior to the Title Update Review Period, as applicable, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such matters which shall be considered to be “Conditions of Title” as defined in Section 4.1(e) below.

(c) If Seller receives a timely Objection in accordance with Section 4.1(b) (“Buyer’s Notice”), Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, within five (5) business days after receipt of Buyer’s Notice (“Seller’s Response Period”), to elect to cure any such matter upon written notice to Buyer (“Seller’s Response”), and may extend the Closing Date for up to fifteen (15) business days to allow such cure. If Seller does not give any Seller’s Response, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any such matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall in any event be obligated to cure all matters or items (i) that are mortgage or deed of trust liens or security interests against the Property, in each case granted by Seller (and not Tenant or other third parties of Tenant as may be permitted by the Lease), (ii) real estate tax liens, other than liens for taxes and assessments not yet due and payable after the date of Closing and (iii) that have been voluntarily placed against the Property by Seller (and not Tenant or other third parties of Tenant as may be permitted by the Lease) after the date of this Agreement and that are not otherwise permitted pursuant to the provisions hereof. Seller shall be entitled to apply the Seller’s proceeds from the Purchase Price towards the payment or satisfaction of such liens, and may cure any Objection by causing the Title Company to insure against collection of the same out of the Property.

(d) If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure any Objections raised in any Buyer’s Notice timely delivered by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Section 4.1(b), or if Seller notifies Buyer that it elects to cure any such Objection but then does not for any reason effect such cure on or before the Closing Date as it may be extended hereunder, then Buyer, as its sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the option of terminating this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller within three (3) business days after (as applicable) (i) its receipt of Seller’s Response stating that Seller will not cure any such Objection or (ii) the expiration of Seller’s Response Period if Seller does not deliver a Seller’s Response or (iii) Seller’s failure to cure by the Closing Date (as it may be extended hereunder) any Objection which Seller has previously elected to cure pursuant to a Seller’s Response. In the event of such a termination, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as provided in Section 6.1, Section 9.3 and Section 9.9 below. If no such termination notice is timely received by Seller hereunder, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to take title as it then is and proceed to Closing, thereby waiving all such Objections in which event those Objections shall become “Conditions of Title” under Section 4.1(e).

(e) At the Closing, Seller shall convey title to the Property to Buyer by special warranty deed in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Deed”) subject to no exceptions other than:

(1) Building and zoning ordinances and regulations and any other laws, ordinances or governmental regulations restricting, regulating or relating to the use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Property;

(2) Interests of Tenant in possession under the Lease;

(3) Matters created by or with the written consent of Buyer;

(4) Condition of the Property as revealed by a current inspection;

(5) Matters shown on the Survey;

(6) The lien of real estate taxes and assessments which are not yet due and payable; and

(7) Any exceptions disclosed by the Title Report and any Title Report Update which is approved or deemed approved by Buyer in accordance with this ARTICLE IV above, and any other exceptions to title disclosed by the public records or which would be disclosed by an inspection and/or survey of the Property.

All of the foregoing exceptions shall be referred to collectively as the “Conditions of Title.” Subject to the terms and conditions contained elsewhere in this Agreement, by acceptance of the Deed and the Closing of the purchase and sale of the Property, (x) Buyer agrees it is assuming for the benefit of Seller all of the obligations of Seller with respect to the Conditions of Title from and after the Closing, and (y) Buyer agrees that Seller shall have conclusively satisfied its obligations with respect to title to the Property. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.

Section 4.2 Evidence of Title.

Delivery of title in accordance with the foregoing shall be evidenced by the willingness of the Title Company to issue, at Closing, its Owner’s ALTA Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price showing title to the Real Property vested in Buyer, subject to the Conditions of Title (the “Title Policy”). The Title Policy may contain such endorsements as reasonably required by Buyer provided that the issuance of such endorsements shall not be a condition to Buyer’s obligations hereunder. Buyer shall pay the costs for all such endorsements. Seller shall have no obligation to provide any indemnity or agreement to the Title Company or Buyer to support the issuance of the Title Policy or any such endorsements other than Seller’s standard form of owner’s affidavit (the “Owner’s Affidavit”) attached hereto as Exhibit E.

ARTICLE V

RISK OF LOSS CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY

Section 5.1 Condemnation.

In the event that Seller receives written notice on or prior to the Closing Date that all or any part of the Property is to be taken by exercise of the right of eminent domain, Seller will give Buyer immediate notice (a “Condemnation Notice”) of such event. If, prior to the Closing Date, the Property shall be taken or threatened in writing to be taken by exercise of the right of eminent domain, or there shall be taken or threatened in writing to be taken such a material part thereof that, as determined by the terms of the Lease, the taking materially interferes or would materially interfere with the economic operation or use of the Property, then Buyer may elect to terminate its obligations under this Agreement by written notice to such effect given to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt by Buyer of the Condemnation Notice, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and no party shall have any further obligation and liability to the other parties hereunder other than the obligations which expressly survive the Closing as indicated herein. If Buyer does not so elect to terminate its obligations hereunder, then the Closing of the sale hereby contemplated shall take place as herein provided without any abatement of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing Seller shall assign to Buyer, by written instrument, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award (but not any portion of an award to which the Tenant may be entitled) which may be payable to Seller on account of such condemnation. If, prior to the Closing Date, one or more portions of the Real Property shall be taken by exercise of right of eminent domain in a manner which does not, as determined by the terms of the Lease, materially interfere with the economic operation or use of the affected Property, then Buyer shall not have the right to terminate its obligations hereunder by reason thereof and, at the Closing, Seller shall assign to Buyer, by written instrument, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any condemnation awards which may be payable to Seller (but expressly excluding any amount to which the Tenants may be entitled) on account of such condemnation, and the Purchase Price shall not be reduced.

Section 5.2 Casualty.

If, prior to Closing, the Property, or any part thereof, suffers any material damage (that is, any damage to the Property to the extent that the Tenant has the right terminate the Lease pursuant to the terms thereof) from fire or other casualty, then Seller shall promptly provide Buyer with written notice thereof and Buyer may either: (a) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, in which event the Deposit shall be promptly refunded to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder, other than any obligations expressly surviving the termination hereof, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage, and including any and all rent loss insurance proceeds relating to the period from and after the Closing Date, if payable, shall be assigned to Buyer at the Closing and Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the amount of Seller’s deductible under its insurance policy which has not previously been paid out by Seller. If the Property, or any part thereof, suffers any non-material damage (that is, any damage to the Property which obligates Tenant to continue the payment of rent without abatement) prior to the Closing, Buyer agrees that it will consummate the Closing and accept the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage, including without limitation any and all rent loss insurance proceeds relating to the period from and after the Closing Date, if payable (plus receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the amount of Seller’s deductible under its insurance policy which has not previously been paid out by Seller), and there shall be no other reduction in the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE VI

BROKERS AND EXPENSES

The parties represent and warrant to each other that no broker or finder was instrumental in arranging or bringing about this transaction except for CBRE Group, Inc. (“Seller’s Broker”). At Closing, Seller shall pay, at its sole cost and expense, the commission due, if any, to Seller’s Broker, which shall be paid pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Seller’s Broker. If any other person brings a claim for a commission or finder’s fee based upon any contact, dealings or communication with Buyer or Seller, then the party through whom such person makes his claim shall defend the other party (the “Indemnified Party”) from such claim, and shall indemnify the Indemnified Party and hold the Indemnified Party harmless from any and all costs, damages, claims, liabilities or expenses (including without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending against the claim. The provisions of this Section 6.1 shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not consummated, any termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.2 Expenses.

Except as provided in ARTICLE IV above, and Section 8.3(b) and Section 9.5 below, each party hereto shall pay its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE VII

LEASES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

Section 7.1 Buyer’s Approval of New Leases and Agreements Affecting the Property.

Between the Effective Date and the Closing, Seller shall not amend or terminate the Lease in any respect without Buyer’s prior written consent. If Buyer does not consent, Buyer shall specify in detail the reasons for its disapproval. If Buyer fails to give Seller notice of its approval or disapproval of any such proposed action requiring its approval under this Section 7.1 within three (3) business days after Seller notifies Buyer of Seller’s desire to take such action, then Buyer shall be deemed to have given its approval.

Section 7.2 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 7.3 Tenant Notices.

At the Closing, Seller shall furnish Buyer with one (1) original signed notice to be duplicated by Buyer and given to Tenant in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F and made a part hereof, with such reasonable, informational modifications thereto as Buyer may reasonably request (the “Tenant Notice”).

Section 7.4 Maintenance of Improvements and Operation of Property; Removal of Tangible Personal Property.

To the extend not maintained by Tenant, Seller agrees to keep its customary property insurance covering the Property in effect until the Closing (provided, however, that the terms of any such coverage maintained in blanket form may be modified as Seller deems necessary). Seller shall maintain all Improvements substantially in their present condition (ordinary wear and tear and casualty excepted), and shall operate and manage the Property in a manner consistent with Seller’s practices in effect prior to the Effective Date, provided that Seller shall in no event be obligated to make any capital expenditures or repairs. Seller shall not remove any Tangible Personal Property, except as may be required for necessary repair or replacement, and replacement shall be of approximately equal quality and quantity as the removed item of Tangible Personal Property.

Section 7.5 Service Contracts.

There are currently no Service Contracts entered into by Seller in effect at the Property. Between the Effective Date and the date of Closing, Seller will not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, enter into any Service Contracts with respect to the Property that will not be terminated prior to Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall terminate as of the Closing Date, all existing management agreements, leasing agreements, broker agreements and locator agreements with respect to the Property.

ARTICLE VIII

(a) If in accordance with ARTICLE II of this Agreement Buyer elects to proceed with the purchase of the Property, then Seller shall obtain an estoppel certificate from Tenant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (the “Estoppel Certificate”), or as otherwise provided below. It shall be a condition to Buyer’s obligation to close the sale and purchase of the Property that on or before the Closing, Buyer is able to obtain the Estoppel Certificate from Tenant.

Prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, Buyer shall work with Tenant to agree on a form of Estoppel Certificate reasonable acceptable to Tenant and Buyer and shall deliver to Seller a copy of the approved form at the expiration of the Contingency Period. If Tenant refuses to sign the Estoppel Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J or the form so approved by Tenant (after discussions and negotiations, as necessary, with Tenant and Buyer), an Estoppel Certificate from Tenant will be deemed reasonably acceptable to Buyer if it contains the following information: confirming the dates of the term and the termination date, the rents, taxes and all other charges due and payable under the Lease; that no rent has been paid more than one month in advance; that the Tenant Allowance, the Work to be Reimbursed by Landlord (including without limitation, the First Additional Reimbursement and the Second Additional Reimbursement as set forth in the Second Amendment) have been paid in full and Tenant is not entitled to any other credits, allowances or payments from the Landlord; that the Lease is in full force and effect and that a true and correct copy of the Lease with all amendments and modifications is attached; that all work to be performed by landlord has been performed and that Tenant has no knowledge of any landlord default. The Estoppel Certificate shall be addressed to Buyer and any lender of Buyer, as Buyer directs, and can be relied upon by both Buyer and any lender of Buyer.

(b) If Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate discloses a circumstance that would, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer, have an adverse effect on the Property following Closing or reflects information materially inconsistent with the Rent Roll or otherwise reflects a materially adverse issue under the Lease, Buyer shall notify Seller thereof no later than five (5) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate, and Seller shall have the right to adjourn Closing for a period of time not to exceed fifteen (15) days to resolve the issue to the satisfaction of Seller, Buyer and the Tenant. If, at the end of such 15-day period the adverse circumstance at issue has not been corrected to the satisfaction of Seller, Buyer and the Tenant, Buyer shall have the right to either waive its objection to such issue and close with no reduction in Purchase Price, or terminate this Agreement whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer. If Buyer fails to deliver written notice to Seller setting forth Buyer’s reasonable objections to any fact or circumstance raised in a Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate or material modification to the Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate within five (5) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate, Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have approved such Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate.

(c) Upon Buyer’s request, which request shall provide Seller with all relevant information, Seller shall deliver to Tenant at no additional cost or expense to Seller (i) a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (the “SDNA”) by and between Buyer, Buyer’s lender and Tenant similar in form and content as set forth in Exhibit E of the Lease (subject to modifications as mutually agreed to by the parties thereto), and (ii) Buyer’s lender’s contact information. Buyer’s receipt of the SNDA from the Tenant shall not be a condition of Buyer’s obligations to close hereunder.

Section 8.5 Prorations.

(a) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.5, the following matters and items shall be prorated and apportioned between the parties hereto, or, where applicable, credited in total to a particular party, as of 11:59 pm on the day before the Closing Date (the “Cut Off Time”), with net credits, whether in favor of Buyer or Seller, to be settled in cash at the Closing; and for purposes of calculating prorations, (i) Seller shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and therefore entitled to the income therefrom and responsible for the expenses thereof up to the Cut Off Time, and Buyer to be in title to the Property on and after the Cut Off Time, and (ii) all prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the year and month that have elapsed as of the Closing Date.

(b) Rents that have been collected for the month of the Closing will be prorated at the Closing, effective as of the date of the Closing. Not less than five (5) business days prior to Closing, Seller shall furnish to Buyer a schedule of all rents from Tenant which are then due and payable but which have not been collected. With regard to due and payable rents that are uncollected as of the Closing Date, (i) no proration will be made at the Closing, (ii) Buyer shall make a reasonable effort after the Closing to collect the rents in the usual course of Buyer’s operation of the Property, and (iii) Buyer shall apply all rents collected (A) first to the then-current month’s rental obligation due from Tenant, (B) then second towards any delinquent amounts relating to the period from and after the Closing Date, and (C) then third towards delinquent rents owed to Seller with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date. It is further agreed, however, that Buyer will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect uncollected rents, and Seller shall not be entitled to ▇▇▇ the Tenant to collect same. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions to the contrary, rents collected by Buyer after the Closing Date applicable to the month of Closing and to which Seller is entitled shall be promptly paid to Seller, and any rents received by Seller after the Closing Date applicable to the month of Closing and to which Buyer is entitled, shall be promptly paid to Buyer. There are no common area maintenance expenses, administrative fees, insurance costs and property management fees payable to Seller by Tenant under the Lease. There is no security deposit made or required to be made by Tenant under the Lease.

(c) There shall be no proration of real estate taxes as Tenant pays real estate taxes directly to the applicable governmental authority and has paid the first installment of 2019 real estate taxes payable in 2020.

(d) Buyer shall pay the following costs of closing this transaction:

(1) Any and all expense(s) incurred by Buyer or its representative(s) in inspecting or evaluating the Property, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement;

(2) The cost of any extended coverage or special endorsements to the Title Policy, including any additional premium charge(s) for endorsements and/or deletion(s) of exception items and any cancellation charge(s) imposed by the Title Company in the event a Title Policy is not issued, unless caused by default of Seller hereunder;

(3) Any and all recording fees for the Deed;

(4) One-half of any and all escrow fees associated with the purchase and sale transaction contemplated herein, and all escrow fees associated with Buyer’s financing, if any; and

(5) The fees and disbursements of Buyer’s counsel.

(e) Seller shall pay the following costs of closing the transaction:

(1) One-half of any and all escrow fees;

(2) Any and all state and county real estate transfer, stamp or documentary taxes;

(3) All title charges and the cost of the Title Policy, excepting the cost of any extended coverage or special endorsements to the Title Policy, including any additional premium charge(s) for endorsements and/or deletion(s) of exception items and any cancellation charge(s) imposed by the Title Company in the event a Title Policy is not issued, unless caused by default of Seller hereunder;

(4) Subject to Section 4.1(a), all costs relating to the Survey;

(5) Except as set forth in Section 8.5(d)(3) above, any and all recording fees; and

(6) The fees and disbursements of Seller’s counsel.

(f) The provisions of this Section 8.5 shall survive the Closing.

Section 9.2 Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and schedules hereto, contains all representations, warranties and covenants made by Buyer and Seller and constitutes the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any prior correspondence, memoranda or agreements are replaced in total by this Agreement together with the Exhibits and schedules hereto.

Section 9.3 Entry and Indemnity.

In connection with any entry by Buyer, or its agents, employees or contractors onto the Property, Buyer shall give Seller reasonable advance notice of such entry and shall conduct such entry and any inspections in connection therewith (a) during normal business hours, (b) so as to minimize, to the greatest extent possible, interference with Seller’s business and the business of Tenant, (c) in compliance with all applicable laws, and (d) otherwise in a manner reasonably acceptable to Seller. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to any entry to perform any on-site testing, including but not limited to any borings, drillings or samplings, Buyer shall give Seller written notice thereof, including the identity of the company or persons who will perform such testing and the proposed scope and methodology of the testing. Seller shall approve or disapprove, in Seller’s sole discretion, the proposed testing within one (1) business day after receipt of such notice. If Seller fails to respond within such one (1) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have disapproved the proposed testing. If Buyer or its agents, employees or contractors take any sample from the Property in connection with any such approved testing, Buyer shall provide to Seller a portion of such sample being tested to allow Seller, if it so chooses, to perform its own testing. Buyer shall permit Seller or its representative to be present to observe any testing or other inspection or due diligence review performed on or at the Property. Upon the request of Seller, Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller copies of any reports relating to any testing or other inspection of the Property performed by Buyer or its agents, representatives, employees, contractors or consultants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Buyer shall not contact any governmental authority or Tenant without first obtaining the prior written consent of Seller thereto in Seller’s sole discretion, and Seller, at Seller’s election, shall be entitled to have a representative participate in any telephone or other contact made by Buyer to a governmental authority or Tenant and present at any meeting by Buyer with a governmental authority or Tenant. Buyer shall maintain, and shall assure that its contractors maintain, public liability and property damage insurance in amounts and in form and substance adequate to insure against all liability of Buyer and its agents, employees or contractors, arising out of any entry or inspections of the Property pursuant to the provisions hereof, and Buyer shall provide Seller with evidence of such insurance coverage upon request by Seller. Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any actual, provable costs, damages, liabilities, losses, expenses, liens or claims (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) solely arising out of or directly relating to any entry on the Property by Buyer, its agents, employees or contractors in the course of performing the inspections, testings or inquiries provided for in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any release of Hazardous Materials above levels allowed by law or any significant or material damage to the Property; provided that Buyer shall not be liable to Seller as a result of the discovery by Buyer of a pre-existing condition on the Property to the extent the activities of Buyer, its agents, representatives, employees, contractors or consultants do not exacerbate the condition above levels allowed by law. The foregoing indemnity shall survive beyond the Closing, or, if the sale is not consummated, beyond the termination of this Agreement. Buyer’s right of entry, as provided in this Section 9.3, shall continue up through the date of Closing.

Section 9.4 Time.

Time is of the essence in the performance of each of the parties’ respective obligations contained herein. If the time period by which any right, option or election provided under this Agreement must be exercised, or by which any act required hereunder must be performed, or by which the Closing must be held, expires on a Saturday, Sunday or legal or bank holiday, then such time period shall be automatically extended through the close of business on the next regularly scheduled business day. Unless otherwise specified herein, all references herein to a “day” or “days” shall refer to calendar days and not business days. A “business day” shall mean any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal or bank holiday in the jurisdiction in which the Property is located. The last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m. Central Time.

Section 9.5 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either party hereto fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or if any dispute arises between the parties hereto concerning the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, whether prior to or after Closing, or if any party defaults in payment of its post-Closing financial obligations under this Agreement, then the defaulting party or the party not prevailing in such dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party on account of such default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

Section 9.6 Assignment.

Buyer’s rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable without the prior written consent of Seller in Seller’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right, without the necessity of obtaining Seller’s consent but with prior written notice to Seller, to assign its right, title and interest in and to this Agreement to an entity owned and controlled by Buyer at any time before the Closing Date. Buyer shall in no event be released from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder in connection with any assignment. Without limiting and notwithstanding the above, in no event shall Buyer have the right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder to any party which could not make the representation and warranty contained in Section 3.5(e) above, and in connection with any assignment pursuant to the terms hereof, the assignee shall reconfirm in a written instrument acceptable to Seller and delivered to Seller prior to the effective date of the assignment said representation and warranty as applied to the assignee and that all other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to such assignee. Subject to the provisions of this Section, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.7 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement so executed in counterparts shall effective upon delivery to the parties hereto. In the event that any signature to this Agreement is delivered by transmission by facsimile or by electronic mail in form of any “.pdf”, “.jpg”, “.tiff”, “.bmp”, “.png”, “.gif”, and/or any other electronically-formatted image and/or document (collectively, an “Electronic Transmission”), such signature shall create a valid and legally binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page sent via Electronic Transmission were an original thereof.

Section 9.8 Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Real Property is located.

Section 9.9 Confidentiality and Return of Documents.

Buyer and Seller shall each maintain as confidential any and all material obtained about the other or, in the case of Buyer, about the Property, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall not disclose such information to any third party. Except as may be required by law, Buyer will not divulge any such information to other persons or entities including, without limitation, appraisers, real estate brokers, or competitors of Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right to disclose information with respect to the Property to its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, environmental auditors, engineers, potential lenders, and permitted assignees under this Agreement and other consultants to the extent necessary for Buyer to evaluate its acquisition of the Property provided that all such persons are told that such information is confidential and agree (in writing for any third party engineers, environmental auditors or other consultants) to keep such information confidential. If Buyer acquires the Property from Seller, Seller shall have the right, subsequent to the Closing of such acquisition, to publicize the transaction (other than the parties to or the specific economics of the transaction) in whatever manner it deems appropriate; provided that any press release or other public disclosure regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, and the wording of same, must be approved in advance by both parties. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement. In the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not close as provided herein, upon the request of Seller, Buyer shall promptly return to Seller all Due Diligence Materials and other documents and copies obtained by Buyer in connection with the purchase of the Property hereunder.

Section 9.10 Interpretation of Agreement.

The article, section and other headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning of any provision contained herein.

The term “person” shall include any individual, partnership, joint venture, corporation, trust, unincorporated association, any other entity and any government or any department or agency thereof, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or other capacity.

Section 9.11 Limited Liability.

The obligations of Seller under this Agreement and under all of the Other Documents are intended to be binding only on the property of Seller and shall not be personally binding upon, nor shall any resort be had to, the private properties of any Seller Related Parties.

Section 9.12 Amendments.

This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by Buyer and Seller.

Section 9.13 No Recording.

Neither this Agreement or any memorandum or short form thereof may be recorded by Buyer.

Section 9.14 Drafts Not an Offer to Enter into a Legally Binding Contract.

The parties hereto agree that the submission of a draft of this Agreement by one party to another is not intended by either party to be an offer to enter into a legally binding contract with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property. The parties shall be legally bound with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement only if and when the parties have been able to negotiate all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in a manner acceptable to each of the parties in their respective sole discretion, and both Seller and Buyer have fully executed and delivered to each other a counterpart of this Agreement (or a copy by Electronic Transmission) (the “Effective Date”) pursuant to which the “Effective Date” for purposes of this Agreement shall be the date of last execution by Seller and Buyer.

Section 9.15 Bulk Sales.

Seller shall be solely responsible for and shall pay all sums due under the Bulk Sales Laws (as hereinafter defined) in connection with Seller’s ownership and operation of the Property. Within two (2) business days after the expiration of the Contingency Period, if not earlier, in Seller’s sole discretion, Seller shall request and shall use good faith diligent efforts to obtain with respect to the Property (and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate (at no expense to Buyer) and execute any necessary documentation in connection therewith) (a) a full release of claims letter issued to Buyer by the Illinois Department of Revenue showing that Buyer has no liability for the payment of any of Seller’s assessed but unpaid taxes, penalties or interest due under the Illinois Income Tax Act, 35 ILCS 120/5j et. seq. and any tax, penalty or interest due under the Retailer’s Occupation Tax Act 35 ILCS 5/902 et. seq. (the “Bulk Sales Act”). Seller shall provide Buyer with evidence of Seller’s timely requests for such release letters and/or certificate in accordance with the Bulk Sales Act promptly after filing same. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of Buyer to close the transaction contemplated in this Agreement, that Buyer receive such release letters and/or certificate from the State of Illinois under the Bulk Sales Act . If any of the release letters, certificates or confirmation from the State of Illinois under the Bulk Sales Act are not received by Closing, then the Closing shall occur and Seller shall be obligated to execute an indemnification agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, indemnifying Buyer against any and all claims by any of the State of Illinois if a letter, certificate or confirmation was not provided for any unpaid taxes, penalties or interest owed by Seller (any such indemnity agreement is called a “Bulk Sales Indemnity”) and also establishing a holdback from Seller’s net proceeds of sale an amount equal to 2.5 times stated in the release letters, certificates or confirmation from the State of Illinois under the Bulk Sales Act and if any such amount is not stated than an amount determined by the Title Company and Buyer in order for the Title Company to either insure over or endorse over any such claims as additional assurance in support of Buyer’s acceptance of the Bulk Sales Indemnity.

Section 9.16 No Partnership.
