ARTICLE I

THE MERGERS

Section 1.01 The Mergers. At the Effective Time, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with applicable Laws, each of WvF 1325 GP and WvF 1325 LP shall be merged with and into Merger Sub, whereby the separate existence of each of WvF 1325 GP and WvF 1325 LP shall cease, and Merger Sub shall continue its existence under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act as the surviving entity in each Merger (herein sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Entity”).

Section 1.02 Merger Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 2.03, and subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in Section 2.01. the closing of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby (the “Merger Closing” or the “Merger Closing Date”) shall occur concurrently with the closing of the IPO (the “IPO Closing”). The Merger Closing shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Procter LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or as mutually agreed among the Company and the WvF Parties.

Section 1.03 Effective Time. On the Merger Closing Date (or on such other date as the Company and the WvF 1325 Parties may agree) Merger Sub and the applicable WvF 1325 Party shall file, or shall cause to be filed, a certificate of merger or similar document with respect to each Merger (each such certificate, a “Certificate of Merger”) as may be required by applicable Laws with the Secretary of State of each applicable jurisdiction, providing that the Mergers shall become effective upon filing or, if agreed upon by the Company and the WvF 1325 Parties, as of such other date or time as is set forth in the Certificates of Merger (the “Effective Time”), together with any certificates and other filings or recordings related thereto, in such forms as are required by, and executed in accordance with, the relevant provisions of applicable Laws.

Section 1.04 Effect of the Mergers. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Mergers shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificates of Merger and applicable Laws.

Section 1.05 Organizational Documents. At the Effective Time, the Organizational Documents of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended as provided therein or in accordance with applicable Laws.

Section 1.06 Directors, Officers and General Partner of the Surviving Entity. The directors, officers and general partner of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be and become the directors, officers and general partner of the Surviving Entity as of the Effective Time, each to hold office in accordance with the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Entity.

Section 1.07 Conversion of Equity Interests.

(a) Under and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Equity Holder is entitled to receive as a result of and upon consummation of the Mergers, the Merger Consideration set forth in Schedule 1.07(b).

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Mergers and without any action on the part of the Company, Merger Sub, the WvF Parties or any Equity Holder, each equity interest in each WvF 1325 Party (each an “Equity Interest”) shall be converted automatically into the right of the Equity Holder to receive Company Shares, in the amount set forth opposite its name in Schedule 1.07(b) (the “Merger Consideration”).

(c) No fractional Company Shares shall be issued to an Equity Holder pursuant to this Agreement. If aggregating all Company Shares that an Equity Holder otherwise would be entitled to receive as a result of the Mergers would require the issuance of a fractional Company Share, such Equity Holder shall instead be entitled to receive one full Company Share in lieu of such fractional Company Share.

(d) From and after the Effective Time, each Equity Interest converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.07(b) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such Equity Interest so converted shall thereafter cease to have any rights as an Equity Holder, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration applicable thereto.

(e) As soon as practicable following the determination of the Price to the Public and prior to the Merger Closing, all calculations relating to the Merger Consideration to be received by each Equity Holder shall be performed in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Company.

(f) All equity interests in Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding as equity interests of the Surviving Entity.

Section 1.08 Tax Treatment of Mergers.

(a) The general partner of Merger Sub will be a newly formed Delaware limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company (“Merger Sub General Partner”) and disregarded as separate from the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the only partners of Merger Sub will be the Company, as a limited partner, and Merger Sub General Partner, as the general partner, and Merger Sub will be treated as an entity disregarded as separate from the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(b) It is intended that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, each of the Mergers shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement constitutes, and hereby is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3.

(c) Each party hereto (i) shall cause all Tax Returns relating to the Mergers to be filed on the basis of treating the Mergers as “reorganizations” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (ii) shall not take any position on any Tax Return, or take any other reporting position, that is inconsistent with such treatment, unless otherwise required by applicable Laws.

Section 1.09 Payment of Merger Consideration.

(a) At or after the Effective Time, upon surrender by an Equity Holder of its Equity Interests together with a duly executed letter of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E and the certificates, if any, evidencing such Equity Interests to the Company, such Equity Holder shall be entitled to receive from the Company in exchange therefor the portion of the Merger Consideration to which such Equity Holder is entitled (subject, in the case of USREHAG, to the obligation below of USREHAG to deliver the Indemnity Holdback Amount to the Escrow Agent). Risk of loss and title to the Equity Interests of an Equity Holder shall pass only upon delivery to the Company of such duly executed letter of transmittal and the certificates, if any, evidencing such Equity Interests. The full amount of the Indemnity Holdback Amount shall be retained from the Merger Consideration otherwise deliverable to USREHAG and none of such amount will be retained from the Merger Consideration otherwise deliverable to WvF 1325 GP as an Equity Holder of WvF 1325 LP.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, dividends or other distributions payable on any portion of the Merger Consideration after the Effective Time (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Indemnity Holdback Amount), but prior to the delivery of such portion of the Merger Consideration to an Equity Holder pursuant to Section 1.09(a) above, shall be paid promptly by the Company to the Equity Holder of record, as set forth in Schedule 1.07(b), entitled to receive such portion of the Merger Consideration upon compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section, less the amount of any withholding taxes which may be required thereon as reasonably determined by the Company. At and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the applicable record books of the Equity Interests that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) On the Merger Closing Date, the Company will deposit the Indemnity Holdback Amount with the Escrow Agent (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. The approval of the Mergers and this Agreement by the Equity Holders shall constitute approval of the Escrow Agreement and of all of the arrangements relating thereto, including without limitation the placement of the Indemnity Holdback Amount in escrow and the appointment of the Equity Holders’ Representative.

(t) To the WvF Parties’ Knowledge, the ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ family members, entities controlled by the ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ family members, the WvF Parties and their Affiliates (such Persons, “WvF-Related Entities”) do not own, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the total combined voting power, or 10% or more of the total value, of the outstanding equity interests in Allianz SE within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, taking into account the constructive ownership rules prescribed by Section 318(a) of the Code, as modified by Section 856(d)(5) of the Code.

Section 4.06 No Violation. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, any agreement contemplated hereby between the parties to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby between the parties to this Agreement does or will, with or without the giving of notice, lapse of time, or both, violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under or give to others any right of termination, acceleration, cancellation or other right under, (a) the Organizational Documents of any WvF Party or WvF 712 LP, (b) any agreement, document or instrument to which any WvF 1325 Party is a party or by which any WvF 1325 Party is bound (assuming the existing indebtedness of the 1325 Venture has been repaid) or (c) any term or provision of any judgment, order, writ, injunction, or decree binding on any WvF 1325 Party (or its assets or properties), except, in the case of clause (b) and (c), any such breaches or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a WvF Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.10 Investments. The WvF Parties acknowledge that the Company intends the offer and issuance of Company Shares to the Equity Holders as Merger Consideration to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and that the Company’s reliance on such exemptions is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties contained herein.

(a) Each Equity Holder is an Accredited Investor.

(b) Each of the Equity Holders is acquiring the Merger Consideration solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not as a nominee or agent for any other Person and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution of any thereof in violation of the securities Laws.

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFlCATION

Section 5.01 Company Indemnification. Subject to the indemnification limitations set forth in this Agreement, from and after the Merger Closing Date, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Equity Holder and its officers, employees, partners, members, agents, representatives and Affiliates (each of which is a “WvF Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all charges, complaints, claims, actions, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses of any nature whatsoever, including without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of investigation, costs of investigative judicial or administrative proceedings or appeals therefrom and costs of attachment or similar bonds, but excluding in all cases consequential or punitive damages (collectively, “Losses”) in excess of the greater of (i) 1.5% of the Contributed Equity Value or (ii) $250,000, in each case in the aggregate, arising out of or relating to, asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the WvF Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of the Company contained in this Agreement or in any schedule, exhibit, certificate or affidavit or any other document delivered by the Company or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall not have any obligation under this Section 5.01 to indemnify any WvF Indemnified Party against any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise by virtue of the WvF Parties’ breach of this Agreement, gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. Any indemnification payment made by the Company pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be made to the applicable WvF Indemnified Party in shares of Company Common Stock, the number of which shall equal the dollar value of the indemnification payment divided by the price of a share of Company Common Stock as of the date of such indemnification payment.

Section 5.02 WvF Alternative Indemnification. Subject to the indemnification limitations set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 5.07(a)(ii), from and after the Merger Closing Date, the Indemnity Holdback Amount

shall be used to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, Merger Sub, Merger Sub General Partner and the Operating Partnership and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates (each of which is a “Company Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all Losses in excess of the greater of (i) 1.5% of the Contributed Equity Value or (ii) $250,000, in each case in the aggregate, arising out of or relating to, asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by such Company Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of the WvF Parties contained in this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4.05, but other than Section 4.05(g), which are addressed in Section 7.02) or in any schedule, exhibit, certificate or affidavit or any other document delivered by any WvF Party pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the WvF Parties shall not have any obligation under this Section 5.02, and the Indemnity Holdback Amount shall not be used, to indemnify any Company Indemnified Party against any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise by virtue of the Company’s breach of this Agreement, gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. In addition, to the extent that any OP Units that the Surviving Entity, as successor to the WvF 1325 Parties (or the Surviving Entity’s successor in interest, if applicable), has received in connection with the Formation Transactions with respect to the interests in Fund I or Fund III held directly or indirectly by the WvF 1325 Parties at the Effective Time, are paid to the Operating Partnership in order to satisfy indemnification obligations to which such OP Units are subject in connection with the Operating Partnership’s acquisition of the assets of Fund I and Fund III in the Formation Transactions, the Company will be entitled to receive a number of shares of Company Common Stock from the Indemnity Holdback Amount equal to such number of OP Units paid to the Operating Partnership in order to indemnify the Company for the loss of such OP Units.

Section 5.03 Notice of Claims At the time when any WvF Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party, as applicable (as applicable, an “Indemnified Party”) learns of any potential claim (a “Claim”) under this Article V that is asserted against the Indemnified Party that is subject to indemnification by the Company or in respect of the WvF Parties from the Indemnity Holdback Amount, as applicable, under this Article V (as applicable, the “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnified Party will promptly give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party (or in the case of the Company Indemnified Parties, to the Equity Holders’ Representative); provided that failure to do so shall not prevent recovery under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure. Each Claim Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the facts known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such Claim, and the amount or good faith estimate of the amount of Losses arising therefrom. Unless prohibited by Law, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party (or in the case of the Company Indemnified Parties, to the Equity Holders’ Representative), promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to a Third Party Claim (defined below), and failure to do so shall prevent recovery under this Agreement to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

Section 5.04 Third Party Claims. The Indemnifying Party (through the Equity Holders’ Representative in the event the Indemnified Party is a Company Indemnified Party) shall be entitled, at its own expense, to assume and control the defense of any Claims based on claims asserted by third parties (“Third Party Claims”), through counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party (or in the case of the Company Indemnified Parties, by the Equity Holders’ Representative), if it gives written notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Parties within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the applicable Claim Notice; provided, however, that the Indemnified Parties may at all times participate in such defense at their expense; provided, further, that if any such Third Party Claim relates to Taxes of a WvF 1325 Party or a Company Indemnified Party, then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company (or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have the right to control any such Third Party Claim. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party (unless prohibited by Laws), at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. No compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim may be effected by either the Indemnified Party, on the one hand, or the Indemnifying Party (or in the case of the Company Indemnified Parties, the Equity Holders’ Representative), on the other hand, without the other’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Laws and no effect on any other claims that may be made against such other party, (b) each Indemnified Party that is party to such claim is released from all liability with respect to such claim and (c) such claim does not relate to Taxes.

Section 5.05 Survival of Representations and Warranties. Except as set forth in Article VII, all representations and warranties of the WvF Parties in Article IV and the Company in Article III, as applicable, shall survive after the Merger Closing until the first anniversary of the Merger Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”). If written notice of a Claim in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.03 has been given prior to the Expiration Date, then the relevant representation and warranty shall survive, but only with respect to such specific Claim, until such Claim has been finally resolved. Any claim for indemnification not so asserted in writing by the Expiration Date may not thereafter be asserted and shall forever be waived.

Section 5.06 Establishment of Indemnity Holdback Escrow. On the Merger Closing Date, the Company will deposit the Indemnity Holdback Amount with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.

Section 5.07 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) Except as set forth in Article VII, (i) the sole and exclusive remedy for Company Indemnified Parties for any breach, misrepresentation or other matters relating to or arising in connection with this Agreement and any of the agreements, documents or instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith and any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article V and (ii) the WvF Parties shall not be liable or obligated to make payments under this Agreement to the extent such payments in the aggregate exceed the Indemnity Holdback Amount.

(b) Except as set forth in Article VII, (i) the sole and exclusive remedy for WvF Indemnified Parties for any breach, misrepresentation or other matters relating to or arising in connection with this Agreement and any of the agreements, documents or instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith and any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article V and (ii) the Company shall not be liable or obligated to make payments under this Agreement to the extent such payments in the aggregate exceed the dollar amount obtained by multiplying the number of Company Shares included in the Indemnity Holdback Amount by the Price to the Public.

Section 5.08 Tax Treatment. All indemnity payments made under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the consideration paid hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Laws.

Section 6.04 Equity Holders’ Representative. The WvF Parties hereby appoint USREHAG as the representative for the Equity Holders (the “Equity Holders’ Representative”), and the Equity Holders’ Representative shall have the authority to take the actions provided herein on behalf of the Equity Holders subsequent to the Merger Closing.

Section 6.05 Tax Covenants.

(a) The WvF Parties shall provide the Company and Merger Sub with such reasonable cooperation and information relating to the WvF 1325 Parties as the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, reasonably requires in (i) filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return

or claim for Tax refund, (ii) determining any liability for Taxes or a right to a Tax refund, (iii) conducting or defending any proceeding in respect of Taxes or (iv) performing Tax diligence, including with respect to the impact of the transactions contemplated herein on the Company’s qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and the qualifications of the Mergers as reorganizations under Section 368(a) of the Code. The parties shall provide access to the materials referred to in Section 6.03.

(c) The Equity Holders’ Representative shall timely file or cause to be timely filed when due all Tax Returns of the WvF 1325 Parties required to be filed on or prior to the Merger Closing Date and shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown due thereon. The Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, (i) shall timely file, or cause to be timely filed, when due all Tax Returns of the WvF 1325 Parties required to be filed on or after the Merger Closing Date relating to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (ii) shall prepare and file any such income Tax Returns described in the preceding clause (i) on a basis consistent with the information delivered by the Equity Holders’ Representative pursuant to the immediately succeeding sentence, (iii) shall deliver, at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extension) for the filing of any such income Tax Returns to the Equity Holders’ Representative for the Equity Holders’ Representative’s review a draft of such Tax Returns and (iv) shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments of the Equity Holders’ Representative on such income Tax Returns. To the extent any income Tax Returns described in the immediately preceding sentence reflect transactions undertaken by the WvF 1325 Parties and their Affiliates in order to comply with the WvF 1325 Parties’ obligations under Section 6.05(g) the Equity Holders’ Representative (i) shall have the right to determine the manner in which such transactions, and any tax items resulting from such transactions, shall be reflected on such Tax Returns, provided such positions are reasonably consistent with applicable Law, (ii) shall promptly deliver to the Company or the Surviving Entity, upon the reasonable request of either the Company or the Surviving Entity (and in no event shall deliver later than sixty (60) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extension) for the filing of any such income Tax Returns), for the Company’s or the Surviving Entity’s review information indicating the manner in which such transactions described in clause (i) of this sentence will be reflected on such Tax Returns and (iii) shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments of the Company or the Surviving Entity regarding such information. The Equity Holders’ Representative shall cause payment to the Company or the Surviving Entity of the amounts due on any Tax Returns filed pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 6.05(c) upon the earlier of (i) at least five (5) days before the applicable due date for the filing of such income Tax Return (taking into account extensions) or (y) the date the Company or the Surviving Entity actually files such income Tax Return, it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Equity Holders’ Representative shall not be

required to pay any Tax liability pursuant to this sentence arising from the Mergers’ failing to qualify as “reorganizations” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. All such Tax Returns (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amended Tax Returns) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, any failure by the Company or the Surviving Entity to file a Tax Return relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall not relieve WvF 712 LP of any obligation to indemnify a Company Indemnified Party for Taxes except to the extent of any additional Losses directly caused by such failure. In order to apportion appropriately any Taxes relating to a Straddle Period, the portion of any Taxes that are allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be: (x) in the case of Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis (and not based on invoices, receipts, sales or payments), deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Merger Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period, and (y) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (x) (such as Taxes that are income Taxes, sales or use Taxes, employment Taxes, withholding Taxes or other Taxes imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the taxable year or period ended and the books closed at the close of the Merger Closing Date.

(d) Following the Merger Closing, to the extent that USREHAG has provided a FIRPTA Notice pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(iv)(A) instead of cash sufficient to fund withholding pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(iv)(B), USREHAG shall provide the Company with evidence satisfactory to the Company that USREHAG has complied with the requirements of Temporary Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-5T(d)(l)(iii), as modified by IRS Notice 89-57, with respect to the Mergers.

(e) Within 20 days after the Closing, the Company shall submit to the IRS any FIRPTA Notices provided to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(iv)(A), in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(2)(i)(B).

(f) In the event that any of the WvF Parties or the Company receives an opinion from a nationally recognized tax counsel that it is either “as likely as not” or “more likely than not” that either of the Mergers will not be considered a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such party shall promptly provide notice of the receipt of such opinion to the other parties to this Agreement.

(g) Immediately prior to, and through, the Merger Closing, the WvF 1325 Parties will hold all of the WvF Owners’ then-direct and indirect interests in Fund I and Fund III (or the consideration received with respect to such interests in the Formation Transactions).

(h) USREHAG shall (i) cause to be timely paid any ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ real property transfer taxes payable by the Equity Holders or the WvF 1325 Parties as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers (other than the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax) (collectively, the “New York Transfer Taxes”); provided, that the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such amount of New York Transfer Taxes payable shall reflect the Company’s

status as a REIT; (ii) timely and properly file, with the Company’s cooperation, all Tax Returns with respect to such New York Transfer Taxes; and (iii) provide evidence satisfactory to the Company of such payment and filing. If the actual amount of New York Transfer Taxes (expressly excluding any increase in New York Transfer Taxes payable in connection with the Mergers due to any subsequent direct or indirect transfers or dispositions by USREHAG or its Affiliates of Company Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration) owed by the Equity Holders is less than the dollar amount used to calculate the WvF Transfer Tax Amount, then, promptly after payment of such amount is made or caused to be made by USREHAG or is due (if payment is not made by the due date), USREHAG shall pay the amount of such difference to the Company. If the actual amount of New York Transfer Taxes (expressly excluding any increase in New York Transfer Taxes payable in connection with the Mergers due to any subsequent direct or indirect transfers or dispositions by USREHAG or its Affiliates of Company Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration) owed and actually paid by the Equity Holders is greater than the dollar amount used to calculate the WvF Transfer Tax Amount, then, promptly after payment of such amount is made or caused to be made by USREHAG (subject to USREHAG’s obligation to provide evidence satisfactory to the Company of such payment and filing), the Company shall issue shares of Company Common Stock to USREHAG, the number of which shall equal the dollar amount of such excess amount divided by divided by the price of a share of Company Common Stock as of the date of such payment. USREHAG shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to materially overpay the New York Transfer Taxes, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to such payment, the Company shall have the right to review and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) the amount of such payment. In addition, USREHAG shall cause any refund of the New York Transfer Taxes to be paid to the Company promptly after receipt of such refund.

(i) USREHAG assumes the responsibility to pay or cause to be paid the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax. At the Merger Closing, USREHAG shall pay (or cause to be paid) the sum of $360,000 (the “Estimated 1633 Transfer Tax Amount”) to the Company as an estimate of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax, and the Company shall timely pay the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax and timely and properly file all Tax Returns with respect to the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax. If the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Transfer Tax exceeds $360,000, upon written demand by the Company, USREHAG shall wire or caused to be wired, immediately available U.S. funds in the amount of such excess amount to an account designated by the Company. Promptly after receipt by the Company of the aforementioned wire transfer of such excess amount, the Company shall issue shares of Company Common Stock to USREHAG, the number of which shall equal the dollar amount of such excess amount divided by the price of a share of Company Common Stock as of the date of such payment.

(j) If the WvF 1325 Parties have not received, prior to the Merger Closing Date, U.S. income tax refunds relating to the carryback of net operating losses to the 2009 and 2010 taxable years of the WvF 1325 Parties (which refunds have been applied for prior to the date hereof) (the amount of such refunds, in the aggregate, the “Tax Refund”), then any obligation of the Equity Holders’ Representative to pay any Tax liability pursuant to the fourth sentence of Section 6.05(c) or of WvF 712 LP to indemnify for Losses pursuant to Section 7.02(a) shall be offset, without duplication, by an amount equal to all or a portion of the

Tax Refund received by the Company or the Surviving Entity after the Merger Closing Date and prior to the time such Tax liability or indemnification payment is required to be paid, to the extent such Tax Refund has not been previously applied to offset a Tax liability or indemnification payment pursuant to this Section 6.05(i); provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, if any such Tax Refund that reduced a Tax liability or indemnity under Section 6.05(c) or 7.02(a), as applicable, is subsequently reversed by a Governmental Authority, the amount of such reversal shall constitute a Tax liability subject to the indemnity obligations of WvF 712 LP under Section 7.02(a).

The obligation to indemnify under this Section 7.01 shall terminate at the close of business on the 30^th day following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the Tax liabilities in question (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof).

(iii) any withholding obligations (including interest, penalties and related costs) of the Company with respect to any of the WvF Parties or Equity Holders arising in connection with the payment of the Merger Consideration; provided that, if the Equity Holders have delivered FIRPTA Notices in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iv)(A), the Company shall not be indemnified for any withholding imposed under Section 1445 of the Code to the extent such withholding is a result of its failure to comply with its obligations under Section 6.05(e); and

(iv) a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.05(g).

(b) The obligations of WvF 712 LP to indemnify and hold harmless the Company Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 7.02 shall terminate at the close of business on the 30^th day following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the Tax liabilities in question (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof), provided, however, that the indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(iv) shall survive for a period of five (5) years after the IPO Closing.

(c) The following limitations shall apply to the indemnification obligations under this Section 7.02 and under Section 5.02:

(i) The Losses covered under Section 7.02(a) shall be offset by the Tax Refund, if any, as set forth in Section 6.05(i).

(ii) The Losses covered under Section 7.02(a)(iv) shall be limited to E&P Damages, and the aggregate liability under Section 7.02(a)(iv) shall be no greater than the sum of (x) the aggregate amount by which the Historic E&P of each WvF 1325 Party exceeds the amount of distributions (exclusive of amounts distributed in a redemption of the equity interests of such entity) made by such entity in 2014 prior to July 3, 2014 and (y) the aggregate amount of the excess of the Post-2013 E&P not distributed by each WvF 1325 Party over the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by such WvF 1325 Party at the time of the Mergers (assuming for this purpose that distributions made in 2014 prior to July 3, 2014 first reduce Historic E&P (to the extent thereof) rather than Post-2013 E&P), in each case, together with all interest and penalties.

(iii) WvF 712 LP shall not be required to indemnify against any Losses under Section 7.02(a)(i)-(iv) above, and the Indemnity Holdback Amount shall not be used to indemnify the Company for any Taxes or other damages pursuant to Section 5.02, to the extent such Losses result from any inaccuracy or proposed adjustment with respect to Tax information provided to the WvF Parties with respect to their direct and indirect interests in the Paramount-Managed Entities by such entities, the ▇▇▇▇ Parties (as defined in the July 3^rd Agreement) or PGI Delaware or their Affiliates.

(d) In case of an inconsistency between this Section 7.02 and Article V, this Section 7.02 shall control.

(e) The indemnification notice and claim procedures set forth in Section 5.03 shall apply to the indemnification obligations set forth herein, provided, however that notice shall be given to WvF 712 LP rather than the Equity Holders’ Representative.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the representations and warranties of the WvF Parties set forth in Section 4.12 shall survive after the Merger Closing until the second anniversary of the Merger Closing Date (the “Second Anniversary”). If written notice of a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) has been given prior to the Second Anniversary in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.02(e), then the relevant representation and warranty shall survive, but only with respect to such specific claim, until such

claim has been finally resolved. Any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) not so asserted in writing by the Second Anniversary may not thereafter be asserted and shall forever be waived. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum liability of WvF 712 LP pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) shall be the Contributed Equity Value and WvF 712 LP shall not be liable for any amounts in excess of the Contributed Equity Value pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i).

Form of Omnibus Agreement

[See attached]

OMNIBUS DISTRIBUTION AND ESCROW AGENT AGREEMENT

This OMNIBUS DISTRIBUTION AND ESCROW AGENT AGREEMENT (as the same may be amended or modified from time to time pursuant hereto, this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of November , 2014 by and among the ENTITIES SET FORTH ON SCHEDULE 1 (collectively, the “Participants” and individually, each a “Participant”), PARAMOUNT GROUP, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and PARAMOUNT GROUP OPERATING PARTNERSHIP LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership” and collectively with the Company and any designees of either of the Company or the Operating Partnership, the “PGI Parties” and individually, each a “PGI Party”).

BACKGROUND

The Company, which is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, desires to consolidate the ownership of a portfolio of primarily office properties currently owned, directly or indirectly, by the Participants (collectively, the “Formation Transactions”).

The Formation Transactions relate to the proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the common stock, par value $.01 per share (“REIT Shares”), of the Company, which will operate as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust within the meaning of Sections 856 through 858 of the Code.

In connection with the Formation Transactions, (i) the Company will issue REIT Shares to certain Participants and/or the Holders (as defined below) of the JV Participants (as defined below) and (ii) the Operating Partnership will issue units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) to certain other Participants, in each case pursuant to a private placement.

Each Participant has entered into a contribution agreement, merger agreement or other similar agreement or agreements (the “Formation Transaction Documentation”) with one or more of the PGI Parties pursuant to which each such Participant has agreed to contribute to, or merge into, the PGI Parties, as applicable, all of such Participant’s interests identified in such Formation Transaction Documentation. As used herein, the term Formation Transaction Documentation shall include all agreements or other documentation entered into in connection with the Formation Transaction Documentation including, without limitation, the lock-up agreements entered into with the underwriters of the IPO.

The Formation Transaction Documentation provides for the appointment of a distribution and escrow agent in connection with the IPO Escrow and Indemnity Holdback Escrow (each defined below).

Computershare Inc., together with its subsidiary, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., has agreed to act as the distribution and escrow agent (collectively, the “Agent”)

Concurrently with the execution of the Formation Transaction Documentation, (i) the Participants and the PGI Parties have entered into this Agreement, and (ii) the PGI Parties and the Agent have entered into the Transfer Agency and Service Agreement (the “TA Agreement”), the Tabulation Agent Agreement (the “Tabulation Agreement”) and the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) (each attached as an exhibit hereto and collectively referred to herein as the “Agent Agreements”), pursuant to which the following has or will occur:

•

IPO Escrow. As of the date of this Agreement, certain of the Participants (the “Fund Participants” identified on Schedule 1) have distributed in book entry form to each of their partners (together with equity owners of the other Participants, the “Holders”) as set forth opposite such Holders’ name on Schedule 2, in escrow pursuant to the Agent Agreements, a right (the “Distribution Rights”) to receive such Holder’s allocable share of the number of OP Units and/or REIT Shares (subject to certain restrictions, obligations and liens as described in Section 3 below) to be issued to such Fund Participants (as well as to the other Participants) in connection with the closing of the IPO (the “IPO Consideration”). Pursuant to the Agent Agreements, in connection with the closing of the IPO (the “Effective Date”), Agent will be deemed to have submitted to the Company and the Operating Partnership, as applicable, the Distribution Rights in exchange for the IPO Consideration as set forth opposite each Holders’ name on Schedule 2 and Agent will hold the IPO Consideration in escrow. In addition, pursuant to its applicable Formation Transaction Documentation, the Company will also on the Effective Date issue IPO Consideration to the Holders of the Participants identified on Schedule 1 as the PGI Participants (the “PGI Participants”). Furthermore, pursuant to its applicable merger agreement (the “JV Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which the JV Participants (as defined below below) will merge with and into the Company or a newly-formed subsidiary of the Company (the “JV Merger”), the Company will also on the Effective Date issue IPO Consideration to the Holders of the Participants identified on Schedule 1 as the JV Participants (the “JV Participants”) in accordance with the Letter of Transmittal (defined below). The escrow arrangements with respect to the Distribution Rights and IPO Consideration are collectively referred to as the “IPO Escrow”.

•

Indemnity Holdback Escrow. At the Effective Date, each Participant will cause its respective Holders to deposit (and the Company will withhold from the Holders of the JV Participants and cause to be deposited) in escrow with Agent (the “Indemnity Holdback Escrow”

-2-

and together with the IPO Escrow, the “Escrow Accounts”) a portion of such Holders’ respective IPO Consideration as set forth opposite such Holder’s name on Schedule 2 (the “Indemnity Holdback Amount”) in order to provide for the indemnification obligations provided for in the applicable Formation Transaction Documentation.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and other terms contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. Appointment. The parties hereby agree to the appointment of Agent, pursuant to each of the applicable definitive Agent Agreements, to serve as distribution and escrow agent in connection with the holding and disbursement of the Distribution Rights, IPO Consideration and Indemnity Holdback Amount, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable definitive Agent Agreement. Subject to entering into such definitive Agent Agreements, Agent has agreed to accept such appointment pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth therein. Pursuant to the relevant portions of certain of the Agent Agreements, Agent will establish a separate account for each Holder in accordance with Schedule 2 and such accounts will allocate each Holder’s aggregate IPO Consideration to a class(es) corresponding to the Participant(s) with respect to which such Holder received its IPO Consideration.

2. Effective Date. The Company will promptly notify Agent of the Effective Date on the date thereof.

3. Escrow Procedures; Legending of IPO Consideration.

(a) IPO Escrow. The TA Agreement and Tabulation Agreement attached as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, set forth the procedures that the parties and Agent agree and acknowledge shall control with respect to the holding and disbursement of the Distribution Rights and IPO Consideration by Agent.

(b) Indemnity Holdback Escrow. The Escrow Agreement attached as Exhibit C sets forth the procedures that the parties agree and acknowledge shall control with respect to the holding and disbursement of the Indemnity Holdback Amount by Agent.

(c) Legending. Pursuant and subject to the TA Agreement, Agent will cause the IPO Consideration to be legended to reflect the following lock-ups and restrictions, which lock-ups and restrictions are more particularly described in and governed by the Formation Transaction Documentation (the “Restrictive Legends”):

(i) Lock-up on Transfers: All OP Units and REIT Shares shall be subject to lock-up on transfers until 180 days after the Effective Date.

(ii) IPO Escrow: All OP Units and REIT Shares shall be subject to the IPO Escrow until the earlier of (i) the delivery of, as applicable, a completed and signed Investor Acknowledgement Agreement (substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 and D-2) or Letter of Transmittal (substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E) or (ii) one business day after the second anniversary of the Effective Date. The PGI Parties acknowledge that

-3-

the Letter of Transmittal from the Holders of the JV Participants is required to be delivered to the Company and/or the Agent as of the closing of the JV Merger and the concurrent closing of the IPO pursuant to the JV Merger Agreement and if so delivered, the Restrictive Legend with respect to the IPO Escrow will not be placed on the REIT Shares to be issued to the JV Participants.

(iii) Indemnity Holdback Escrow: Those OP Units and REIT Shares identified on Schedule 2 under the heading “Indemnity Holdback Escrow” shall be held by Agent subject to (i) the Indemnity Holdback Escrow and (ii) other than with respect to the Holders of the JV Participants and WvF Real Estate Fund, L.P. as a Holder of Paramount Group Real Estate Fund V (Core), L.P., a pledge of such OP Units and REIT Shares in favor of the applicable PGI Party until the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the Effective Date unless there is a Reserved Portion (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) as of such date, in which event, the Indemnity Escrow Holdback shall continue with respect to such Reserved Portion until ultimately disposed of in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and (y) the date a Holder posts with Agent Substitute Collateral (defined below) in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, in which event such Substitute Collateral shall be held in the Indemnity Holdback Escrow.

(iv) Transfer Tax Indemnity: Other than with respect to the Holders of the JV Participants, each Holder’s IPO Consideration shall be subject to the following: (i) indemnification obligations for any incremental New York City and State real property transfer taxes that will be payable if such Holder subsequently transfers more than 50% of its IPO Consideration within two years of the IPO Closing and (ii) a pledge with respect to such indemnification obligations of 50% of each Holder’s total IPO Consideration in favor of the applicable PGI Party until the earlier of (x) one business day after the second anniversary of the Effective Date and (y) the date a Holder posts with the applicable PGI Party Substitute Collateral in accordance with the TA Agreement.

(v) Prohibition on Redemption of OP Units: All OP Units shall be subject to a prohibition on redemption until 14 months after the Effective Date.

(vi) General. Pursuant and subject to the TA Agreement, the Agent will release the applicable portion of the IPO Consideration from the Restrictive Legends after the expiration of the periods set forth above or, if applicable, to the extent such IPO Consideration has been released from escrow or the applicable restriction by the posting of Substitute Collateral (as defined below).

-4-

(d) Substitute Collateral. A Holder may have the OP Units and/or REIT Shares that are subject to the Indemnification Holdback Escrow and/or the Transfer Tax Indemnity released by Agent by posting either (i) cash collateral or (ii) a letter of credit in form and substance acceptable to the applicable PGI Party (“Substitute Collateral”).

(i) Any Substitute Collateral posted with respect to the Indemnification Holdback Escrow shall be (i) posted with Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement; (ii) be in an amount equal to all or a portion of the IPO Consideration such Holder seeks to have released from escrow and (iii) the number of REIT Shares and/or OP Units that shall be released shall be equal to (x) the amount of the Substitute Collateral posted divided by (y) the Value of a REIT Share on the date Agent receives the Substitute Collateral, rounded up to the nearest whole number.

(ii) Any Substitute Collateral posted with respect to the transfer tax indemnity shall be (i) posted with the applicable PGI Party; and (ii) in an amount equal to 100% of the Holder’s share of the indemnification obligations for transfer tax payment that would be payable upon the transfer of such Holder’s REIT Shares and/or OP Units prior to the expiration of the applicable transfer tax indemnity period as reasonably determined by such PGI Party; and after the posting of such Substitute Collateral, all of such Holder’s REIT Shares and/or OP Units shall be released by Agent from the applicable Restrictive Legend.

(iii) “Value” means with respect to a REIT Share on a particular date, the market price of a REIT Share on such date. The market price for each such trading day shall be: (i) if the REIT Shares are listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the closing price on such day as reported by such national securities exchange, or if no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such day; (ii) if the REIT Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last reported sale price on such day or, if no sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such day, as reported by a reliable quotation source designated by the Company; (iii) if the REIT Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and no such last reported sale price or closing bid and asked prices are available, the average of the reported high bid and low asked prices on such day, as reported by a reliable quotation source designated by the Company, or if there shall be no bid and asked prices on such day, the average of the high bid and low asked prices, as so reported, on the most recent day (not more than ten (10) days prior to the date in question) for which prices have been so reported; or (iv) if none of the conditions set forth in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) is met then, the amount determined by the board of directors of the Company.

4. Dividends And Distributions On IPO Consideration Held in Escrow Accounts or Subject to Restrictive Legends. Pursuant to the TA Agreement, Agent shall pay to the respective Holders shown on Schedule 2 any dividends or other distributions that are declared on the OP Units and REIT Shares after the Effective Date as if not encumbered by the Escrow Account or the Restrictive Legends notwithstanding that any portion of the IPO Consideration is being held in an Escrow Account or subject to any Restrictive Legends.

-5-

5. Voting. Each Holder shall have the right to vote the REIT Shares and OP Units credited to such Holder’s account as if not encumbered by the Escrow Account or the Restrictive Legends notwithstanding that any portion of the IPO Consideration is being held in an Escrow Account or subject to any Restrictive Legends. Pursuant to the TA Agreement, Agent will promptly forward to each Holder all notices of shareholders’ or partners’ meetings, proxy statements and reports received by Agent in respect of REIT Shares or OP Units held in such Holder’s account

6. Withholding; Other Tax Matters. The Participants, the Company and the Operating Partnership, as applicable, shall deduct and withhold any taxes they reasonably deem are appropriate under applicable tax withholding rules from any payment of IPO Consideration to the Holders. As of the Effective Date, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax purposes, each Holder shall be treated as the owner of the IPO Consideration to which they are, or will be, entitled pursuant to this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any IPO Consideration held in the Escrow Accounts on such Holder’s behalf).

7. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing or set forth in a PDF attached to an email, and shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement by facsimile, email or overnight courier only to the appropriate fax number, email address, or notice address set forth in Schedule 3.

8. Authorized Representatives.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Successors and Assigns. All the covenants and provisions of this Agreement by or for the benefit of the Participants, the PGI Parties or Agent shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and permitted assigns hereunder (or with respect to the Agent under the applicable Agent Agreement), but shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the written consent of all the parties hereto; provided, however, that the Agent may assign its rights hereunder subject to the provisions of the applicable Agent Agreement.

(b) Amendments. This Agreement and the Agent Agreements may only be amended or modified by a written amendment executed by the Agent and the Company; provided, however, that, if such amendment (i) does not affect each of the Participants or the Holders (and, if applicable, the PGI Parties) in the same manner, or (ii) decreases the rights or increases the obligations of the Participants or Holders or the restrictions on the IPO Consideration under this Agreement or the Agent Agreements, then such Participant(s) and/or Holder(s) shall also be required to consent to such amendment. Agent may rely on the Company’s signature to any amendment as evidence that any required consent from

-6-

Participants and Holders has been obtained. Notification of all Amendments to this Agreement and the Agent Agreements shall be provided to each of the Holders and Participants.

(c) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provision, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

(d) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

Agent shall not be required hereunder to comply with the laws or regulations of any country other than the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof. Agent may consult with foreign counsel in connection with any foreign law issues that may arise as a result of the Company or any other party being subject to the laws or regulations of any foreign jurisdiction.

(e) Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Agent shall not be liable for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control including, without limitation, acts of God, terrorist acts, shortage of supply, loss of data due to power failures, war, or civil unrest.

(f) Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to benefit only the Participants, the Holders and the PGI Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. No rights shall be granted to any other person by virtue of this Agreement, and there are no third party beneficiaries hereof.

(g) Survival. All provisions regarding indemnification, warranty, liability and limits thereon, compensation and expenses and confidentiality and protection of proprietary rights and trade secrets shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(h) Priorities. In the event of any conflict, discrepancy, or ambiguity between the terms and conditions contained in (i) this Agreement, (ii) any schedules or attachments hereto, (iii) the Formation Transaction Documentation, and (iv) the Agent Agreements with respect to any obligations, rights, duties, responsibilities, liabilities, indemnities or protections of the Agent, the terms and conditions contained in the Agent Agreements shall take precedence.

-7-

(i) Merger of Agreement. Together with the Formation Transaction Documentation and the Agent Agreements, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written.

(j) No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by all parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(k) Descriptive Headings. Descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.

(l) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. A signature to this Agreement transmitted electronically shall have the same authority, effect, and enforceability as an original signature.

Share Purchase Agreement

[See attached]

PARAMOUNT GROUP, INC.

SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of this 31^st day of October, 2014, by and between Paramount Group, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and WvF 718, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Purchaser”).

WHEREAS, the Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (as heretofore amended, the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”) of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”); and

WHEREAS, in connection with the consummation of the IPO and as described more fully in the Registration Statement, the Company and its operating partnership will engage in a series of transactions through which they will acquire their initial portfolio of properties and other assets that they intend to own following the IPO (the “Formation Transactions”);

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with entering into this Agreement, the Company is entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with WvF 1325, Inc., WvF 1325, L.P. (the “WvF 1325 Parties”), US Real Estate Holding AG (“USREHAG”) and certain other parties pursuant to which each of the WvF 1325 Parties will merge with and into a newly formed Delaware limited partnership that is wholly owned by the Company directly or indirectly (the “1325 Mergers”) and the holders of equity interests in each of the WvF 1325 Parties will be entitled to receive the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Shares”), subject to the terms and conditions thereof; and

WHEREAS, concurrent with the consummation of the IPO, the Company desires to issue and sell, and Purchaser desires to purchase and acquire, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, additional shares of Common Stock as provided in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1. Sale and Purchase of Shares.

1.1 Subject to the concurrent consummation of the 1325 Mergers and the IPO and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to issue and sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase and acquire from the Company, the whole number of shares of Common Stock, with any fraction of a share being rounded up to the next whole share (the “Purchase Shares” or “Shares”), equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of (i) 5.01% of the Total Number of Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) less (ii) the sum of (A) the Merger Shares delivered to USREHAG and (B) the Fund V Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (b) $17,500,000 divided by the public offering price per share of Common Stock sold in the IPO as shown on the cover page of the final prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement (the “Price Per Share”); provided, for avoidance of doubt, that if the foregoing calculation results in a negative number no shares of Common Stock will be

issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the sum of (a) the Merger Shares to be delivered to USREHAG, (b) the Purchase Shares, if any, (c) the Minimum IPO Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), if any, deliverable to Purchaser at the closing of the IPO and (d) the Fund V Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), collectively, would not satisfy the 5% Ownership Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement), then Purchaser shall have no obligation to purchase the Purchase Shares hereunder.

1.2 The aggregate purchase price for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) shall equal the number of Shares to be purchased and sold hereunder multiplied by the Price Per Share.

2. Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares hereunder (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of the Company or the Company’s legal counsel in New York or as mutually agreed upon among the Company and Purchaser and shall occur concurrently with the Merger Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the satisfaction of the conditions of closing set forth herein. At the Closing, the Company shall issue the Shares, registered in Purchaser’s or its designee’s name, upon the payment of the Purchase Price in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company to Purchaser. The Shares shall be issued in book-entry form and the Company and/or its transfer agent shall provide Purchaser with customary evidence of the issuance of the Shares.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser the following:

3.1 The Company (a) has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland and (b) has the corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.2 All corporate action necessary to be taken by the Company to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement has been duly and validly taken.

Re:

Proposed Public Offering by Paramount Group, Inc. – WvF Paramount Real Estate Fund V (Core), L.P.

Dear Sirs:

The undersigned, a stockholder of Paramount Group, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), understands that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Lynch, Pierce, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ Incorporated (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇”) proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with the Company providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) of shares (the “Securities”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). In recognition of the benefit that such an offering will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees with each underwriter to be named in the Underwriting Agreement that, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the date that is 180 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Lock- Up Period”), the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, directly or indirectly, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired by the undersigned as a limited partner of Paramount Group Real Estate Fund V (Core), L.P. (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any of the Lock-up Securities, or file or cause to be filed any registration statement in connection therewith, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise. Notwithstanding the terms of the Underwriter Lock-Up Agreement attached as an exhibit to the Investor Acknowledgement Agreement (the “IAA”) entered into by the undersigned in connection with the Public Offering, nothing contained herein or therein shall restrict or otherwise limit the ability of the undersigned or its affiliates to pledge the Lock-Up Securities as collateral (or otherwise grant a security interest in or encumber the Lock-Up Securities) in respect of any indebtedness that may be incurred by the undersigned or its affiliates during the Lock-Up Period. For the avoidance of doubt, and as evidenced by the acknowledgment and agreement of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ below, this agreement supersedes the Underwriter Lock-Up

Agreement attached as an exhibit to the IAA. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this agreement and the Underwriter Lock-Up Agreement attached as an exhibit to the IAA, the terms contained in this agreement shall govern.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer the Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, provided that (1) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ receives a signed lock-up agreement for the balance of the Lock-Up Period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, (2) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (3) such transfers are not required to be reported with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 4 in accordance with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and (4) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such transfers:

(i) as a bona fide gift or gifts; or

(ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); or

(iii) as a distribution to limited partners or stockholders of the undersigned; or

(iv) to the undersigned’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

(the “1325 Venture”), a real estate joint venture that owns and operates 1325 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York (the “Property”) as a rental office building. Each of the WvF 1325 Parties is a “United States real property holding corporation,” as defined in Section 897(c)(2)¹ (a “USRPHC”), and each of the interests that the Transferor holds in the WvF 1325 Parties is a “United States real property interest,” as defined in Section 897(c)(1) (a “USRPI”). Pursuant to a plan of merger each WvF 1325 Party will merge into a Delaware limited partnership (the “Merger Sub”) that is wholly-owned, directly and indirectly, by Paramount Group, Inc. a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), with the Merger Sub as the surviving entity (the “Mergers”). The sole general partner of the Merger Sub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that is treated as an entity disregarded as separate from the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the sole limited partner of the Merger Sub is the Company. Accordingly, the Merger Sub is treated a

disregarded entity of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As consideration for the Mergers, Transferor will receive solely shares of common stock of the Company (“Company Common Stock”). The Merger Sub will remain a disregarded entity of the Company following the Merger. It is intended that each of the Mergers will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a). The Company will make an election to be a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) within the meaning of Section 856, effective for the taxable year of the Company in which the Mergers occur. Concurrently with the Mergers, the Company will conduct an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of Company Common Stock. Prior to the IPO, 50% or more of the value of the outstanding Company Common Stock was held, directly or indirectly, by “foreign persons” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-9T(c). Immediately following the Mergers, the Transferor will own more than 5% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding for purposes of Section 897(c)(3), including Company Common Stock held by subsidiaries of the Transferor that are constructively owned by the Transferor pursuant to Section 897(c)(6)(C).

(E) Statement of supporting law and facts.

Each of the statutory mergers of the WvF 1325 Parties into the Merger Sub, a disregarded entity with respect to the Company, will satisfy the requirements under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(b)(1)(ii) to be treated as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(l)(A). A reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(A) is eligible for non-recognition treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes, provided several requirements are satisfied. Each of the WvF 1325 Parties and the Company will be a party to the reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b), and the parties are entering into the Mergers for valid business reasons. The Company will continue to hold and operate the Property as a rental office building following the Mergers in a manner that satisfies the continuity of business enterprise requirements under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(d). As consideration in the Mergers, the Transferor will receive solely Company Common Stock and has not engaged, and will not engage, in any transfers of Company Common Stock or other transactions that would cause the Transferor not to satisfy the continuity of interest requirements under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e) with respect to the Mergers. Neither WvF 1325 Party is an “investment company” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(2)(F). Under Section 354, the Transferor will not recognize any gain or loss upon the exchange of its equity interests in the WvF 1325 Parties solely for Company Common Stock.

In general, under Section 897(e) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-6T, any nonrecognition provision will apply to a foreign person’s transfer of a USRPI on which gain is realized only to the extent that the transferred USRPI is exchanged for a USRPI that, immediately following the exchange, would be subject to U.S. taxation upon its disposition (determined in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-5T(d)(l )) and the transferor complies with the filing requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-5T(d)(1)(iii), as modified by IRS Notice 89-57. Furthermore, under Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-6T(a)(l), in the case of an exchange of a USRPI for stock in a domestic corporation, such stock will not be considered a USRPI unless the domestic corporation is a USRPHC immediately after the exchange.

The Transferor’s Company Common Stock received in the Mergers will be a USRPI that would be subject to U.S. taxation within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-5T(d)(l) upon its disposition by the Transferor immediately. following the Mergers. The Company will be a REIT and a USRPHC. The Company will not be a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity” within the meaning of Section 897(h)(4) and therefore the Company Common Stock received by the Transferor in the Mergers will not fail to be treated as a USRPI by reason of Section 897(h)(2). Because the Transferor will own, directly and constructively, more than 5% of the Company Common Stock within the meaning of Section 897(c)(3) immediately following the Mergers, the Company Common Stock held by the Transferor will not fail to be treated as a USRPI by reason of the exception for stock regularly traded on established securities markets in Section 897(c)(3). The Transferor will comply with the filing requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-5T(d)(l)(iii), as modified by IRS Notice 89-57, with respect to the Mergers.

The undersigned understands that this Notice of Nonrecognition Transfer will be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the Company. Under penalties of perjury, the undersigned declares that the undersigned has examined this notice, and to the best of the undersigned’s knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and the undersigned further declares that the undersigned has the authority to sign this document on behalf of the Transferor.
