In addition, Seller, on request, shall deliver to the Title Insurer, all customary affidavits reasonably required by the Title Insurer to omit (i) exceptions with respect to municipal emergency -14- repairs, (ii) exceptions with respect to (A) retroactive street vault charges, together with interest and penalties thereon, and (B) work done by the City of New York upon the Unit or the Condominium or any demand made by the City of New York for any such work that may result in charges by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection for water tap closings or any related work, (iii) exceptions with respect to fees for inspections, reinspections, examinations and services performed by the Department of Buildings or for permits issued by the Department of Buildings and (iv) any other exceptions of a similar type. Seller, on request, shall also deliver to the Title Insurer all customary affidavits reasonably required by the Title Insurer to modify or omit (in accordance with the customary practice in New York City) the standard printed exceptions to title contained in the form of 1992 ALTA owner's title insurance policy employed by the Title Insurer. (e) To the extent necessary or required, Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller and, upon request of Seller, deliver to the Title Insurer such affidavits as may be required by the Title Insurer (by virtue of the fact that the Unit is subject to the condominium form of ownership) to enable the Title Insurer to insure Purchaser's title to the Unit in the manner required by this Agreement. 5. BROKERS AND ADVISORS. (a) Purchaser represents and warrants that it has not dealt or negotiated with any broker with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than Jones Lang LaSalle and LaSalle Investment Management, Inc. (collectively, "JLL") and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB") and Purchaser shall pay all fees due to JLL in connection therewith pursuant to a separate agreement. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless, from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, claim, liability and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting from a breach of the foregoing representation and warranty.

Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all professionals and -15- advisors retained by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. (d) The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the Closing for a period without expiration. 6. CUSTOMARY CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS. (a) The following are to be apportioned for the Unit as of the Apportionment Date (subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases), and shall (except as expressly set forth herein) constitute an adjustment with respect to the Purchase Price as of the Apportionment Date: (i) real estate taxes, personal property taxes and all assessments (special and general) for the current tax fiscal period in progress on the Apportionment Date (it being agreed that the same shall be adjusted on an accrual basis). If the rate or amount of such taxes shall not be fixed prior to the Closing Date, the adjustment thereof as of the Apportionment Date shall be upon the basis of the rate for the preceding tax fiscal period applied to the latest assessed valuation (or, if none, other basis of valuation, including without limitation, written opinions of tax adjusters or as otherwise agreed to by Seller and Purchaser), and the same shall be further adjusted no later than thirty (30) days after the date on which the taxes for the current tax fiscal period in progress on the Apportionment Date are paid; (ii) unless final meter readings are obtained on the Apportionment Date (for which Seller shall be solely responsible), vault charges, water and sewer service charges, and charges for all other public utilities, including, without limitation, steam, electricity and gas (to the extent the Unit owner is responsible for the payment thereof). The rights to the return of any deposits with utility companies shall be retained by Seller. Purchaser shall promptly upon request of Seller put up any replacement deposit on or about the Closing Date which may be required by a utility company as a precondition to the release of Seller's deposit; (iii) base rents, fixed rents, additional rents, escalation rents, percentage rents and any other rents (exclusive of advance rents and security deposits) paid or payable for the billing period in progress as of the Apportionment Date in accordance with Section 8A of this Agreement; it being agreed that to the extent, on the Apportionment Date, additional rents, escalation rents, percentage rents or other rents have not been collected for such billing period, then each such item shall be adjusted retroactively to the Apportionment Date in -16- accordance with Section 8A and this Section 6 no later than thirty (30) days after each such item has been collected. Percentage rent, payments or reimbursements on account of operating expenses and real estate taxes, utility charges and any other payments, reimbursements or contributions by tenants under the Leases shall be prorated as follows: (y) with respect to percentage rents (if any), Purchaser shall furnish to Seller promptly upon receipt copies of all sales reports from tenants who owe percentage rent for any period prior to the Apportionment Date, whereupon the percentage rent due (if any) shall be promptly calculated and the proration between Seller and Purchaser computed as of the Apportionment Date; and (z) the amount of any other rents, payments, reimbursements or contributions to be made by any tenant shall be computed in accordance with such tenant's Lease as existing as of the Apportionment Date; and (provided that such tenant's rent payments are not in arrears) Purchaser shall remit to Seller Seller's pro rata portion of such percentage rents (if any) and any other rents, payments, reimbursements or contributions (based upon apportionment being made as of the Apportionment Date) promptly after such rents, payments, reimbursements or contributions have been collected by Purchaser from such tenant. If Seller has collected estimated amounts of prepayments in excess of the amounts properly payable under any tenant's Lease, (i) Seller shall promptly remit said excess to Purchaser after notice from Purchaser and after such excess is verified by a review or analysis of estimated prepayments in accordance with such tenant's Lease, (ii) Purchaser shall promptly remit to the applicable tenant any such excess paid over to Purchaser pursuant to the preceding clause (i), and (iii) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from all claims, demands, causes of actions, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) asserted against or incurred by Seller in connection with or arising out of Purchaser's failure to fulfill its obligations pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) of this sentence; (iv) permit fees and license fees with respect to any assigned permits and licenses; (v) charges and payments under assignable Contracts (other than those terminated in accordance with Section 11(a)(x) of this Agreement) or permitted renewals or replacements thereof; and (vi) insurance premiums and other similar prepaid expenses (to the extent Purchaser retains the same), Common Charges and Limited Common Charges (as such terms are defined in the Condominium Declaration) and any Grand Central Partnership payments or dues applicable to the Unit, operating agreement payments (if such agreements are assumed by Purchaser) and such -17- other items that, in New York, New York, are customarily prorated, adjusted or paid in accordance with the "customs in respect to title closings" recommended by The Real Estate Board of New York, Inc., as amended and in effect on the date of Closing, in connection with the sale or exchange of property similar to the Unit, consistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. (b) All funds in any operating accounts, reserve accounts or any other accounts pertaining to the Unit on the Apportionment Date, whether in the name of Seller or any property manager of the Unit, shall (subject to the terms of any applicable Leases and the adjustments required under this Agreement) be retained by Seller or applied as Seller shall direct, and all cash, coins and petty cash to which Seller is entitled (including, without limitation, cash in coin operated machines, if any) located in the Unit shall be counted by Seller or any such property manager on the Apportionment Date and the same shall be retained by Seller or remitted to Seller by any such property manager. (c) The security deposits and advance rents with respect to the Leases (together with any interest thereon required pursuant to the terms of the Leases or applicable law) shall not be pro-rated, but instead shall be paid over to Purchaser on the Closing Date, provided that, if such security deposits or advance rents are in the possession or control of any property manager, at Purchaser's request Seller shall direct such property manager in writing to retain possession or control thereof for the benefit of Purchaser. Promptly after the Closing (irrespective of when such Closing occurs), Seller shall transfer or cause to be transferred to Purchaser any and all letters of credit and Seller's interest in any certificates of deposit held by Seller as security for a tenant's performance under any of the Leases being assigned to Purchaser. If any such letter of credit is non-transferable, Seller shall use its good faith efforts to have such letter of credit reissued in the name of Purchaser (at Seller's sole cost and expense), and failing that, Seller agrees to continue holding any such non-transferable letter of credit and agrees to present the letter of credit for payment or to release the letter of credit on the written instructions of Purchaser and will remit any funds collected thereunder to Purchaser (less any reasonable costs of collection), provided that Seller is indemnified and held harmless by Purchaser from and against any liability, cost or expense as a result thereof. (d) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED. (e) UNANTICIPATED CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all Unanticipated Capital Expenditures incurred during the Interim Period. If on the Closing Date any Unanticipated Capital Improvements have not been completed and/or funded by Seller, then Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to the amount of any such unfunded items and the cost to complete any such unfunded work. -18- (f) LEASING COMMISSIONS, TENANT ALLOWANCES AND BUDGETED REPAIRS. Seller and Purchaser shall each be responsible for the payment of those (i) Leasing Commissions relating to Existing Leases and Approved New Leases allocable to each such party as set forth on Schedule 6(f)(i) attached to this Agreement, (ii) Tenant Allowances that are the obligation of the landlord under the Existing Leases and the Approved New Leases allocable to each such party as set forth on Schedule 6(f)(ii) attached to this Agreement and (iii) Budgeted Repairs under Construction Contracts allocable to each such party as set forth on Schedule 6(f)(iii) attached to this Agreement. If on the Closing Date any items allocable to Seller on any of the foregoing Schedules 6(f)(i)-(iv) in respect of Budgeted Repairs, Leasing Commissions or Tenant Allowances have not been completed and/or funded by Seller, then Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to the amount of any such unfunded items and the cost to complete any such unfunded work. (g) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED. (h) SURVIVAL. Seller and Purchaser agree to use reasonable efforts to calculate all adjustments required under this Section 6 with respect to those items of income and expense that are ascertainable on the Apportionment Date by no later than the sixty (60) days after the Apportionment Date. Each other item of income and expense that is subject to adjustment under this Section 6 but that is not ascertainable on the Apportionment Date will be adjusted retroactive to the Apportionment Date, and the payment made on such adjustment within sixty (60) days after the date that such adjustment becomes ascertainable (I.E., the date by which each party, in its good faith business judgment, has sufficient information to make such adjustment). The parties agree that each party shall have the right, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and terminating at the close of business on the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the Closing Date, on reasonable advance written notice to the other, from time to time during regular business hours, to review the books and records of such other party pertaining solely to the operations of the Unit to the extent necessary to confirm the amounts of adjustments payable to Seller and/or Purchaser following the Apportionment Date and in furtherance thereof the parties shall, upon reasonable advance written notice, make their respective books and records available for the other during regular business hours and shall use their good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing agent of the Common Elements to make available the applicable portion of its books and records for such purpose. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate as necessary following the Closing Date in order to promptly and in good faith discharge their respective obligations under this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claim for an adjustment under Section 6(a) will be valid if made in writing with reasonable specificity within one (1) year after the Closing Date, except in the case of items of adjustment which at the expiration of such period are subject to pending litigation or administrative proceedings. Claims with respect to items of adjustment that are subject to litigation or administrative proceedings will be valid if made on or before the later to occur of (i) the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date and (ii) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after a final non-appealable order shall have issued in such litigation -19- or administrative hearing. Both parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any disputed claims promptly. The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the Closing. Purchaser shall notify, or shall cause any property manager retained by it to notify, Seller of any reimbursement adjustment to which Seller becomes entitled under the provisions of this Section 6 promptly after Purchaser or such property manager determines that such reimbursement adjustment is due to Seller. 7. EFFECT OF CERTAIN LEASE EVENTS. (a) In addition to the Customary Adjustment being calculated as of the Apportionment Date with respect to the Unit in accordance with the provisions of Section 6 above and the adjustments set forth in Section 8A, the adjustments set forth in this Section 7 shall, to the extent applicable, be made on the Closing Date. (b) If a Contractual Right Lease Event occurs with respect to an Existing Lease during the Interim Period, then (i) during the Interim Period, Seller alone shall continue to be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses attributable to such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Contractual Right Lease Event) and Seller alone shall continue to be entitled to the receipt of all income generated from such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Contractual Right Lease Event) and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses attributable to such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Contractual Right Lease Event) and Purchaser alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income generated from such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Contractual Right Lease Event). If the Contractual Right Lease Event results in an Adjusted NOI which exceeds the Pro Forma NOI (a "Positive NOI Adjustment"), then the Positive NOI Adjustment shall inure to the benefit of Seller from and after the occurrence of the Contractual Right Lease Event up to and including the Apportionment Date. If the Contractual Right Lease Event results in a Positive NOI Adjustment, then the Positive NOI Adjustment shall inure to the benefit of Purchaser from and after the Closing Date. Conversely, if a Contractual Right Lease Event occurs during the Interim Period and such Contractual Right Lease Event results in an Adjusted NOI which is less than the Pro Forma NOI (a "Negative NOI Adjustment"), then the Negative NOI Adjustment shall be borne by Seller from and after the occurrence of the Contractual Right Lease Event up to and including the Apportionment Date and shall be borne by Purchaser from and after the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if upon the occurrence of a Contractual Right Lease Event which results in the termination of any Existing Lease, any fee or other payment required to be made by the applicable tenant under such Existing Lease is in fact paid during the Interim Period as a condition to the termination of such Existing Lease, such fee or other payment shall belong exclusively to Seller. Any subsequent re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under such terminated Existing Lease during the Interim Period shall constitute a Purchaser Consent Action, subject to the provisions of Section 8(a)(i) of this Agreement, it being the intention of -20- the parties that Purchaser shall ultimately bear all the risks and rewards of such re-leasing; provided, however, (i) during the Interim Period, subject to the following provisions of this Section, Seller alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses of re-leasing the space in question (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) and Seller alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income therefrom and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses of re-leasing the space in question (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) and Purchaser alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the expenses incurred by Seller during the Interim Period in connection with such re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under an Existing Lease exceeds the gross income received by Seller during the Interim Period as the result of such re-leasing, then Seller shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such excess and (ii) if the gross income received by Seller during the Interim Period as the result of such re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under an Existing Lease exceeds the expenses incurred by Seller during the Interim Period in connection with such re-leasing, then Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such excess. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Contractual Right Lease Event that does not result in the termination of an Existing Lease, at Closing, Seller shall also receive a credit in an amount equal to all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees incurred in connection with such Contractual Right Lease Event. (c) If an Involuntary Lease Event occurs with respect to an Existing Lease during the Interim Period, then during the Interim Period, Seller alone shall continue to be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses attributable to such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Involuntary Lease Event) and Seller alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income generated from such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Involuntary Lease Event). If the Involuntary Lease Event results in a Negative NOI Adjustment, then the Negative NOI Adjustment shall be borne by Seller from and after the occurrence of the Involuntary Lease Event up to and including the Apportionment Date and shall be borne by Purchaser from and after the Closing Date. Following the occurrence of an Involuntary Lease Event during the Interim Period which results in a tenant vacating the space demised under an Existing Lease prior to the scheduled expiration thereof, any subsequent re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under such Existing Lease during the Interim Period shall constitute a Purchaser Consent Action, subject to the provisions of Section 8(a)(i) of this Agreement, it being the intention of the parties that Purchaser shall ultimately bear all the risks and rewards of such re-leasing; provided, however, (i) during the Interim Period, subject to the following provisions of this Section, Seller alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses of re-leasing the space in question (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) and Seller alone shall be entitled -21- to the receipt of all income therefrom and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses of re-leasing the space in question (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) and Purchaser alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the expenses incurred by Seller during the Interim Period in connection with such re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under an Existing Lease exceeds the gross income received by Seller during the Interim Period as the result of such re-leasing, then Seller shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such excess and (ii) if the gross income received by Seller during the Interim Period as the result of such re-leasing of the space (or any portion thereof) previously demised under an Existing Lease exceeds the expenses incurred by Seller during the Interim Period in connection with such re-leasing, then Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such excess. The collection of Receivables and other amounts due from tenants as the result of an Involuntary Lease Event shall be undertaken in accordance with the provisions of Section 8A and any sums actually collected as a result thereof shall be applied in the manner prescribed in such Section. (d) If a Voluntary Lease Event occurs with respect to an Existing Lease during the Interim Period, then, subject to the following provisions of this Section, (i) during the Interim Period, Seller alone shall continue to be responsible for the payment of those costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) attributable to such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Voluntary Lease Event), and Seller alone shall continue to be entitled to the receipt of all income generated from such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Voluntary Lease Event), and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser alone shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees) attributable to such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Voluntary Lease Event) and Purchaser alone shall be entitled to the receipt of all income from such Existing Lease (as adjusted for the effect of the Voluntary Lease Event). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if the Pro Forma NOI which is allocable to an Existing Lease (as adjusted to reflect the actual Closing Date) is increased as the result of a Voluntary Lease Event, then Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such excess and (B) if the Pro Forma NOI which is allocable to an Existing Lease (as adjusted to reflect the actual Closing Date) is decreased as the result of a Voluntary Lease Event, then Seller shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of such shortfall. At Closing, Seller shall also receive a credit in an amount (without duplication of any operating expense item included in the calculation of Pro Forma NOI pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) equal to all tenant improvement expenses, tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees incurred during the Interim Period as the result of any Voluntary Lease Event with respect to an Existing Lease, including, without limitation, all such tenant improvement expenses, -22- tenant allowances, leasing commissions, referral fees and legal fees incurred in connection with the re-leasing of any space which is vacated as a result of such Voluntary Lease Event. (e) The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years. 8. OPERATION OF THE UNIT PRIOR TO CLOSING. (a) OPERATION OF THE UNIT DURING THE INTERIM PERIOD. During the Interim Period, Seller shall have the right and the obligation to continue to operate and maintain the Unit, subject to the limitations set forth in the Condominium Declaration. In connection therewith: (i) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall not take, or allow any property manager retained by it to take, any Purchaser Consent Action, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (which consent may be withheld in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion). With respect to any proposed Purchaser Consent Action to be submitted to Purchaser for its consent pursuant to the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall consent or deny its consent, within five (5) business days following receipt by Purchaser of Seller's notice requesting Purchaser's consent to the proposed action and providing Purchaser with all background information necessary for Purchaser to make its decision. Failure to respond within such five (5) business day period shall be deemed to be an approval of the Purchaser Consent Action in question. It is understood that a non-discretionary lease renewal, expansion, surrender of space, sublease or assignment right or other similar right expressly set forth in an Existing Lease in favor of a tenant shall not be deemed to be a Purchaser Consent Action to the extent that the specific terms therefor are embodied in the lease in question and are non-subjective in nature. For example, if a renewal has been granted in favor of a tenant for a specific term and at a specified fixed dollar rent per square foot, such renewal will not be a Purchaser Consent Action. On the other hand, if a renewal has been granted to a tenant for a specific term and at a fair market rent to be mutually agreed upon by the Seller and tenant, the ability of Seller to agree upon a fair market rent shall be a Purchaser Consent Action. In addition to the foregoing, Seller shall not take, or allow any property manager retained by it to take, any actions contained in clause (i) of the definition of Excluded Decisions to the extent such action relates to the granting or withholding of a consent right with respect to a material matter under any Lease or involves the incurrence of a material expenditure, obligation or other liability without first providing written notice to Purchaser of its intention to do so, and the reasons therefor; provided, however, Seller agrees that, to the extent requested in writing by Purchaser within three (3) business days after receipt by Purchaser of such -23- notice from Seller, Seller shall refrain from taking any such contemplated action, provided that Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any loss, cost, damage, claim, liability and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) which Seller shall incur resulting from Seller's failure to take any such action. (ii) Intentionally Omitted (iii) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall not take, or omit to take, any action that would have the effect of violating in any material respect any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Seller contained in this Agreement. Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall be construed to preclude Seller from taking, or omitting to take, any action that is (x) approved in writing by Purchaser (whether as a Purchaser Consent Action or otherwise), (y) required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement, or (z) pertaining to the Common Elements and approved by the Board of Managers. From the date hereof until the Closing, Purchaser shall not take, or omit to take, any action that would have the effect of violating in any material respect any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Purchaser contained in this Agreement. (iv) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall not sell, assign, or convey any right, title or interest whatsoever in or to the Unit, or create or permit to exist any lien, security interest, easement, encumbrance, charge or condition affecting the Unit (other than a Permitted Encumbrance), without the prior consent of Purchaser except to the extent relating to (w) actions reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with the marketing and sale of the Unit to the Purchaser pursuant to the Exchange Agreement contemplated by this Agreement, (x) leasing of the Unit or portions thereof as permitted in accordance with this Agreement, (y) items affecting the Common Elements approved by the Board of Managers or (z) items approved in writing by Purchaser (whether as a Purchaser Consent Action or otherwise). (v) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of (a) written default notices, notices of lawsuits and notices of violations affecting the Unit that are sent or actually received by Seller, (b) without duplication of anything contained in the preceding clause (a), any notice received from the City of New York, any taxing authority and any other municipal, governmental or quasi-governmental entity or agency pertaining to the Unit, and any notices received from the Grand Central Partnership and (c) monthly operating statements for the Unit. (vi) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall maintain in full force and effect business interruption insurance to cover loss of rental income in an amount not less than twelve (12) months' projected gross income of the Unit and the other -24- insurance polices described in Schedule 11(a)(xv) attached hereto and shall otherwise continue to operate the Unit in substantially the same manner as it operated the Unit prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and otherwise in a first-class manner, and shall pay all operating expenses and real estate taxes which are the responsibility of the owner of the Unit during the Interim Period. (vii) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall convene (by phone or in person) not less frequently than once per calendar week to discuss any and all matters relating to the operation, management, leasing, maintenance or repair of the Unit. Each party hereto shall exercise its rights and obligations under this Agreement in a manner which is consistent with the rights and obligations of the parties under the Condominium Declaration. (viii) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall file with the New York City Department of Finance ("NYCDF"), at such times and in such manner as may be required under New York City Administrative Codess.11-256 et. seq., the Industrial and Commercial Incentive Program ("ICIP"), a Certificate of Continuing Use and such other documentation as the NYCDF may reasonably require. (ix) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, promptly after the execution and delivery thereof by all parties thereto, copies of all agreements pertaining to Lease Events. 8A. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN MATTERS. (a) COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES, CURRENT SUMS AND ARREARAGES. (1) Seller shall, until the Closing Date, undertake its customary collection efforts to collect all Receivables and other amounts due from tenants (subject to the limitations provided in Section 8A(a)(5) below), which may include the submission of monthly invoices and follow-up invoices, and may (but need not) include the commencement or continuation of litigation or other proceedings, it being agreed that any monies received by Seller as a result of such collection efforts (net of the reasonable costs allocable to the collection of the same) attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date shall (except as specifically provided to the contrary in Sections 7(b), (c) and (d)) belong to Seller and shall not constitute a credit against the Purchase Price. (2) Purchaser shall, from and after the Closing Date, undertake its customary collection efforts on behalf of Seller to collect all Receivables for a period of six (6) months after the Closing Date (subject to the limitations provided in Section 8A(a)(5) below), which may include the submission of monthly invoices and follow-up invoices, and may (but need -25- not) include the commencement or continuation of litigation or other proceedings, it being agreed that in such cases any monies received by Purchaser from and after the Closing Date from any party liable for any portion of the Receivables to be collected by Purchaser shall be applied in the following order: FIRST to the payment pro-rata (on the basis of costs incurred) of all reasonable costs of collection, including reimbursement to Seller or Purchaser of any legal fees or collection costs reasonably incurred by either of them and allocable to the collection of such Receivables pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section, SECOND to the payment of monies owed to Seller and Purchaser for the billing period in progress on the Closing Date, THIRD to Purchaser for sums owed to Purchaser relating to billing periods after the billing period in progress as of the Closing Date, and LAST to the balance of any Receivables. (3) If within six (6) months following the Closing Date, any of the Receivables to be collected by Purchaser that are payable to Seller in accordance with the terms of this Section 8A(a) have not been collected and remitted to Seller, or Purchaser has not commenced litigation to collect such Receivables, then Seller may undertake its own efforts to collect such Receivables, including the commencement of litigation and other proceedings (but Seller shall not seek to evict any tenant or terminate any Lease), and in which event all sums collected by Seller as a result of such litigation (after payment of all costs and expenses) shall be applied in full satisfaction of the subject Receivables, it being agreed that Seller shall refrain from taking any such efforts during the six (6) month period following the Closing Date. (4) With respect to any pending litigation or other proceedings to collect any Receivables from tenants in occupancy on the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option on the Closing Date of either (i) continuing such litigation or proceedings (the costs of which shall be equitably apportioned between Seller and Purchaser, based upon the amounts ultimately paid to each, and reimbursed out of the first monies collected, if any) and Purchaser shall be substituted as the plaintiff, if necessary, or (ii) not continuing the litigation, whereupon Seller may continue such litigation in its own name and at its sole cost and expense, provided that such litigation shall not result in the eviction of the tenant or the termination of its Lease without Purchaser's consent, and in which event all sums collected by Seller as a result of such litigation (after payment of all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses) shall be applied in full satisfaction of the subject Receivables. -26- (5) Notwithstanding anything hereinabove provided, (i) during the Interim Period, Seller shall not settle or compromise any claims against any tenants of the Unit without Purchaser's prior written approval, it being agreed that the settlement or compromise of any such claims shall constitute a Purchaser Consent Action, subject to the provisions of Section 8(a) of this Agreement, (ii) after the Closing, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall settle or compromise any claims against any tenants of the Unit which include both Receivables payable to Seller and amounts payable to Purchaser without the other party's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (iii) to the extent the Receivables that are subject to collection are the Receivables identified in clause (ii) of the definition of Receivables, the rights and obligations of Seller and Purchaser shall be qualified to provide that such parties shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to cause the Board of Managers to comply with the relevant provisions of Section 8A of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right to settle or compromise a claim against a tenant of the Unit without the consent of (but after prior notice to) Seller to the extent such claim relates solely to the period of time after the Closing and provided that the settlement or compromise of such claim does not have a material adverse effect on any claim that Seller may have against such tenant. (6) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary hereinabove provided, Seller shall retain the sole right to collect (in such manner as it shall deem appropriate) those Receivables, if any, listed on Schedule 8A(a)(6) attached hereto as well as Receivables with respect to any tenant whose lease has terminated prior to the Apportionment Date and has vacated its demised premises, it being further agreed that Purchaser shall not be required to undertake any collection efforts with respect to such Receivables. (7) Any monies received by Seller or Purchaser that are to be applied to sums owed to the other party hereto hereunder (whether on account of Receivables, current sums due, arrearages or otherwise) shall be held in trust by Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, for the benefit of the other party and remitted to such other party promptly after receipt. Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the collection of Receivables and, provided there is no liability or material expense associated therewith, shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the other to collect such Receivables. (b) PROTEST PROCEEDINGS. (1) GENERALLY. As of the date of this Agreement, Seller may have engaged various law firms or consultants to protest the valuation of the Unit ("Protest Proceedings") for the purpose of protesting the amount of ad valorem taxes for certain tax fiscal periods, some of which taxes may have been paid by Seller and some of which taxes either are not yet due and payable or have not been paid. With respect to the tax year in which the Closing occurs, and all prior tax years, Seller is hereby authorized (during the Interim Period) to continue any Protest Proceeding for the Unit, -27- it being acknowledged that the trial or settlement of any such Protest Proceeding during the Interim Period shall constitute a Purchaser Consent Action, subject to the provisions of Section 8(a) of this Agreement. All net tax refunds and credits attributable to any tax year prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall belong to and be the property of Seller, subject to the rights of tenants under their respective Leases. All net tax refunds and credits attributable to any tax year subsequent to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall belong to and be the property of Purchaser, subject to the rights of tenants under their respective Leases. All net tax refunds and credits attributable to any tax year not described in the preceding two (2) sentences shall be divided between Seller and Purchaser in accordance with the apportionment of taxes set forth in Section 8A(b)(2) below. Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate with one another in connection with the prosecution of any such proceedings and to take all reasonable steps, whether before or after the Closing Date, as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the intention of the foregoing, including, without limitation, to the extent in a party's possession, the delivery to the party pursuing the appeal of any relevant books and records, including receipted tax bills and canceled checks used in payment of such taxes, and, provided that there is no liability or material expense to the party delivering such materials in doing so, the execution of any and all consents or other documents, and the undertaking of any act necessary for the collection of such refund. The parties agree to keep one another apprised of all such proceedings, to provide one another (except to the extent that the attorney-client privilege would be violated) with copies of all relevant books, records and documentation relating to any such proceeding, and with respect to any course of action which the pursuing party could reasonably expect to have a material impact on any proceeding or on the outcome of any proceeding, such party agrees to consult with the other party and to obtain such party's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before proceeding with any such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, Seller agrees that neither Seller nor its representatives will withhold, because of the attorney-client privilege or work product immunity, from Purchaser or its representatives any relevant information received by Seller or its representatives from, or delivered by Seller or its representatives to, the New York City taxing authorities. If either party hereto shall receive any refund payments contemplated by this subsection 8A(b) which are properly payable to the other party, such payments shall be held in trust by such party, for the benefit of the other, and remitted to such other party promptly after receipt. (2) The Net Refund (as hereinafter defined) payable by virtue of a favorable determination resulting from any Protest Proceeding with respect to the tax fiscal period in progress on the Apportionment Date shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser on a per diem basis, with Seller being entitled to receive the portion thereof allocated to the portion of such tax fiscal period up to and including the Apportionment Date. -28- The term "Net Refund" as used herein shall mean the portion of any refund (including, without limitation, any interest payable thereon) that is payable by virtue of a favorable determination resulting from any Protest Proceeding and that is entitled to be retained by the party so entitled thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions after (i) payment or reimbursement (on a pro-rata basis) of all fees and out-of-pocket expenses including, without limitation, counsel fees and disbursements and consultant's fees incurred in obtaining such refund, the allocation of such expenses to be based upon the total refund obtained in such proceeding and in any other proceeding simultaneously involved in the trial or settlement and (ii) the refunding by such party of the portion of any such refund, if any, owing to tenants under the Leases on account of such refund attributable to the applicable periods covered thereby. (3) Intentionally Omitted. (4) CONTROL OF PROTEST PROCEEDINGS, SETTLEMENT AND COMPROMISE. In connection with any Protest Proceeding for the tax fiscal period in progress on the Closing Date, at Purchaser's request Seller shall, if possible, cause Purchaser to be substituted for Seller in such Protest Proceeding and any other pending Protest Proceedings for tax fiscal periods commencing prior to the tax fiscal period in progress on the Closing Date, or if not possible, Seller shall permit Purchaser to control the conduct of all such Protest Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove provided, (i) during the Interim Period, Seller shall not settle or compromise any Protest Proceedings in which taxes for any tax fiscal period in progress on or prior to the Closing are being adjudicated without Purchaser's prior written approval, it being agreed that the settlement or compromise of any such Protest Proceedings shall constitute a Purchaser Consent Action, subject to the provisions of Section 8(a) of this Agreement and (ii) after the Closing, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall settle or compromise any Protest Proceedings pending on the Closing Date in which taxes for any tax fiscal period in progress on or prior to the Closing Date are being adjudicated without the other party's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Seller and Purchaser shall otherwise cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects with respect to all Protest Proceedings. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the right, subject to the above provisions of this Section 8A(b)(4) and subject to the terms and provisions of the Condominium Declaration, to withdraw, compromise, settle, try or otherwise deal with such petitions or applications with respect to the Unit as Purchaser in the exercise of its sole judgment shall deem appropriate. (c) SURVIVAL. The provisions of this Section 8A shall survive the Closing for a period without expiration. -29- 9. RECORDING CHARGES, TRANSFER AND CONVEYANCE TAXES; WITHHOLDING; INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. (a) RECORDING CHARGES; TAXES GENERALLY. Purchaser shall pay all recording charges and fees and sales taxes, if any, imposed in connection with the conveyance of the Unit to Purchaser. All real estate transfer and conveyance taxes paid or payable in connection with the transactions herein contemplated shall be paid by Seller and/or Purchaser in the manner hereinafter provided in this Section 9. (b) TRANSFER TAXES. (i) Seller shall pay the New York State Real Estate Transfer Tax (the "State Transfer Tax") in accordance with Article 31 of the Tax Law of the State of New York, and the New York City Real Property Transfer Tax (the "City Transfer Tax") imposed by Chapter 21, Title 11 of the Administrative Code of the City of New York, in connection with the conveyance of the Unit to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any loss, cost, damage, claim, liability and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) that may be suffered or incurred by Purchaser by reason of the failure of Seller to pay the State Transfer Tax and the City Transfer Tax, if applicable, as pertains to this transaction, as provided in this Section 9(b), it being understood that the foregoing indemnification shall not apply to any tax liability resulting from an actual disposition of the Unit by Purchaser following its acquisition thereof at the Closing. (ii) In addition to the foregoing, Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any additional State Transfer Tax and/or City Transfer Tax (inclusive of interest and penalties thereon) that may be suffered or incurred by Purchaser by reason of the assertion by any taxing authority having jurisdiction over the subject matter thereof that (i) the conveyance of the Unit to DLIP's assignee in the manner contemplated by this Agreement constitutes a "double transfer" or (ii) the purchase price for the Unit under this Agreement should have been in excess of $185,000,000. (iii) Seller and Purchaser shall each execute and/or swear to the returns or statements required in connection with the State Transfer Tax and the City Transfer Tax, and any other taxes referred to in this Section 9(b) or otherwise applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall deliver same, together with the check or checks of Seller and/or Purchaser, as the case may be, in payment thereof which are required of such party, to the Title Insurer on the Closing Date. All such tax payments shall be made by certified or bank check payable directly to the order of the -30- appropriate governmental officer, or in such manner as the Title Insurer shall reasonably require and accept. (iv) In the event that any taxing authority shall commence or file, or threaten to commence or file, any lawsuit or proceeding, which pending or threatened lawsuit or proceeding may result in any loss, liability or damage subject to indemnification under Section 9(b)(ii) above (collectively, a "Transfer Tax Proceeding"), then Purchaser will give prompt written notice of such Transfer Tax Proceeding to Seller (a "Notice of Transfer Tax Proceeding"), and Seller shall have the right, upon written notice to Purchaser, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Notice of Transfer Tax Proceeding, to undertake the defense thereof by tax representatives chosen by Seller and approved by Purchaser (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If Seller gives written notice that Seller accepts responsibility to contest, and/or defend Purchaser against, such Transfer Tax Proceeding within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Notice of Transfer Tax Proceeding, (i) Seller shall be obligated to diligently contest, and/or defend Purchaser against, such Transfer Tax Proceeding at Seller's own expense, and to keep Purchaser apprised of the current status of such Transfer Tax Proceeding at all times (except to the extent the attorney-client privilege would be violated), (ii) Seller will not be liable to Purchaser for separate legal or other expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with such contest and/or defense, (iii) Purchaser shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with Seller in the contest and/or defense of such Transfer Tax Proceeding, and shall promptly send to Seller copies of any documents received by Purchaser which relate to such Transfer Tax Proceeding and (iv) Purchaser shall have the right, but not the obligation to retain separate tax representatives at Purchaser's own cost and expense and (provided the attorney-client privilege would not be violated) to attend meetings (including, without limitation, with the taxing authority and the tax representatives retained by Seller) and to otherwise monitor the Transfer Tax Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, Seller agrees that neither Seller nor its tax representatives will withhold, because of the attorney-client privilege or work product immunity, from Purchaser or its tax representatives any relevant information received by Seller or its tax representatives from, or delivered by Seller or its tax representatives to, the New York City and New York State taxing authorities. If Seller, within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Notice of Transfer Tax Proceeding, fails to elect in writing to contest, and/or defend Purchaser against, any such Transfer Tax Proceeding, or if Seller defaults in its obligation to diligently contest, and/or defend Purchaser against, any such Transfer Tax Proceeding at any time subsequent to Seller's acceptance of such obligation, and if such failure or such default shall continue for five (5) business days after notice by Purchaser to Seller thereof, Purchaser shall thereafter have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Transfer Tax Proceeding on behalf of Seller, it being understood that Seller shall thereafter reimburse Purchaser, upon demand, for all costs, expenses and -31- liabilities incurred by Purchaser in connection with such defense, compromise or settlement, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees. If and to the extent any liability hereunder has been insured through contractual indemnity insurance, the amount available for recovery by Purchaser hereunder shall be reduced by such amounts as are recovered and received by Purchaser through such insurance. (c) FIRPTA COMPLIANCE. Seller shall comply with the provisions of Section 1445 of the Code, or any successor or similar law. (d) 1099 COMPLIANCE. Seller and Purchaser shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party such instruments, and take such other actions, as such other party may reasonably request in order to comply with Section 6045(e) of the Code, as amended, or any successor provision or any regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, insofar as the same requires reporting of information in respect of real estate transactions. The parties designate the Title Insurer as the responsible party for reporting this information as required by law. (e) SURVIVAL. The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive the Closing for a period without expiration. 10. CLOSING DATE DELIVERIES.

CASUALTY. (a) If, between the date hereof and the Closing, there shall occur a fire or other casualty resulting in the damage or destruction of fifty percent (50%) or more of the floor space of Citigroup Center (a "Major Casualty"), Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to Seller within ten (10) days after receiving written notice of such fire or other casualty, to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except such obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. If, between the date hereof and the Closing, there shall occur a fire or other casualty affecting all or any part of the Unit or any other portion of Citigroup Center other than a Major Casualty, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall (except as specifically provided to the contrary in subsection (b) below) have the right to terminate this Agreement, and in such event, or in the event of a Major Casualty as to which Purchaser shall not exercise the termination option contained in the first sentence of this subsection, then (i) the parties shall proceed to Closing without reduction of or offset against any amounts payable hereunder or any other claim against the other, (ii) at the Closing, Seller shall (x) pay over to Purchaser the proceeds of any insurance collected by Seller less the amount of all costs incurred by Seller in connection with the repair of such damage or destruction, all of which costs incurred by Seller shall be a Purchaser Consent Action and (y) assign and transfer to Purchaser, subject to the terms of the Condominium Declaration, all right, title and interest of Seller in and to any uncollected insurance proceeds which Seller may be entitled to receive from such damage or destruction and (iii) the parties hereto shall cooperate in all reasonable respects in order to -48- effectuate such intent. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the Closing for a period without expiration. (b) In addition to and supplementing the provisions of subsection (a) above, the following provisions of this subsection shall be applicable if a fire or other casualty resulting in the damage or destruction of the Unit shall occur between the date hereof and the Closing (whether or not such fire or other casualty constitutes a Major Casualty): (i) If more than 44.4% of the Citibank Leased Premises (i.e., 195,000 rentable square feet) is damaged or destroyed and if the estimated period (the "Estimated Repair Period") for the completion of the required repair and restoration of the Unit, as determined in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b)(vi) below, exceeds 720 days from the Casualty Repair Period Commencement Date (as hereinafter defined), Seller shall have the absolute and unconditional right at its option to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Purchaser not later than fifteen (15) business days after the Estimated Repair Period is so determined. If the damage or destruction of the Unit occurs prior to the Breakpoint Date (as hereinafter defined), the "Casualty Repair Period Commencement Date" shall, for the purposes of this subsection (b), be the earlier to occur of the Breakpoint Date or the Closing Date, and if the damage or destruction shall occur on or subsequent to the Breakpoint Date, the "Casualty Repair Period Commencement Date" shall, for the purposes of this subsection (b), be the date upon which the damage or destruction shall have occurred. The term "Breakpoint Date", as used in this subsection (b), shall mean July __, 2001. (ii) If more than 44.4% of the Citibank Leased Premises (i.e., 195,000 rentable square feet) is damaged or destroyed and if the Estimated Repair Period, as determined in accordance with the provisions of this subsection hereinafter set forth, exceeds 720 days from the Casualty Repair Period Commencement Date, but Seller does not elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to subsection (b)(i) above, and if this Agreement is not otherwise terminated by Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and Seller shall (except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in subsection (v) below) be absolutely and unconditionally obligated to execute and deliver the Citibank Lease on the Closing Date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement irrespective of whether the required repair and restoration of the Unit have been completed as of the Closing Date. (iii) If Seller does not have the right to terminate this Agreement because less than 44.4% (i.e., 195,000 rentable square feet) of the Citibank Leased Premises is damaged or destroyed, or if more than 44.4% (i.e., 195,000 rentable square feet) of the Citibank Leased Premises is damaged or destroyed, but Seller does not have the right to terminate this Agreement because the Estimated Repair Period is equal to or -49- less than 720 days, and if this Agreement is not otherwise terminated by Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and Seller shall (except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in subsection (v) below) be absolutely and unconditionally obligated to execute and deliver the Citibank Lease on the Closing Date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement irrespective of whether the required repair and restoration of the Unit have been completed as of the Closing Date. (iv) If the Unit and/or Citigroup Center is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty between the date hereof and the Closing, and if this Agreement is not terminated in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) or subsection (b) set forth above, and if the required repair and restoration of the Unit have not been completed as of the Closing Date, the rights and obligation of Citibank under the Citibank Lease shall, without further act or instrument, be deemed modified and qualified as follows until such time as the required repairs and restoration of the Unit shall have been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section hereinafter set forth: (1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Citibank Lease, including, without limitation, Section IX of the Citibank Lease, neither the Base Rent nor the Additional Rent (as defined in the Citibank Lease) shall be abated with respect to the portion of the Unit so damaged or destroyed, it being the intent that Seller shall be obligated to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent with respect to all of the Unit, including without limitation, the portions thereof which have been so damaged or destroyed. (2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Citibank Lease, Seller shall not have any further right to terminate the Citibank Lease as a result of the occurrence of any such fire or other casualty prior to the date of the Closing. (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 16 or elsewhere in this Agreement, if the Unit and/or Citigroup Center is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and if this Agreement is not terminated in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) or this subsection (b) above, and if the required repair and restoration of the Unit have not been completed as of the date upon which the Closing has been scheduled by Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 of this Agreement, Seller shall (except as specifically provided to the contrary in the next sentence of this subsection) have the absolute and unconditional right at its option, by written notice given to Purchaser on or prior to the date such Closing has been scheduled to occur, to postpone the Closing until the earlier to occur of the date upon which the required repair and restoration -50- shall have been completed in accordance with the standards set forth in subsection (iv)(2) above or April 1, 2002. If three floors or less of the Unit shall have been damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Seller shall not have the right pursuant to the preceding sentence of this subsection to postpone a Closing which has been scheduled by Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 of this Agreement. If such repair and restoration have not been completed by April 1, 2002, the Closing shall occur on April 1, 2002 (unless otherwise agreed to the contrary by Seller and Purchaser) in which case the provisions of subsections (iv)(1) and (iv)(2) above, as applicable, shall be in effect. (vi) As promptly as possible after the occurrence of any damage or destruction to the Unit, Seller and Purchaser shall take such steps as may be commercially reasonable to determine the period of time that will be necessary to effect the required repair and restoration to the Unit, including, without limitation, the hiring at the shared cost and expense of Seller and Purchaser of such engineers, architects and other consultants as may be reasonably necessary to make such determination. Seller and Purchaser shall take all steps as may be commercially reasonable to promptly commence and to diligently pursue to completion the required repairs and restoration of the Unit (including, without limitation, by causing the Board of Managers to take such actions and/or prosecute such insurance claims as may be reasonably necessary or desirable in connection therewith) both before and after the Closing Date, and shall cooperate with one another in all reasonable respects in connection therewith. If the Unit and/or Citigroup Center shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and if this Agreement is not terminated in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) or this subsection (b) above, Seller and Purchaser shall cause the Board of Managers to retain Seller, as its agent, to effect all repairs and restoration to Citigroup Center and/or the Unit which are required to be effected by the Board of Managers on behalf of the unit owners in Citigroup Center in accordance with the provisions of the Condominium Declaration. The retention of Seller as such agent, and Seller's agreement to act as such agent and to effect the completion of such repairs and restoration, shall be evidenced by an agreement in writing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser to be entered into among Seller, Purchaser and the Board of Managers, which agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all the required repairs and restoration shall have been completed and irrespective of whether the required repairs and restoration are completed before or after the Closing. Seller shall have the right under the terms of such retention agreement to take all steps as may be reasonably necessary to effect the expeditious completion of the required repairs and restoration, including without limitation, the hiring at the shared pro rata cost and expense of Seller and Purchaser (as determined on the basis of their respective ownership interest in Citigroup Center as of the date of this Agreement) of such architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, materialmen and subcontracts as may be necessary to effect the completion of the required repairs -51- and restoration. Seller shall be obligated at all times to act in good faith and in a commercially reasonable fashion in effecting the required repairs and restoration in a timely and expeditious manner, including without limitation, effecting the required repairs and restoration at commercially reasonable and competitive prices taking into account the scope and severity of the damage or destruction and the necessity to complete required repairs and restoration as quickly and expeditiously as possible. In this regard, Seller agrees that construction contracts will be let on an arms-length basis after competitive bidding, it being agreed, however, that Seller shall have the right in its reasonable and good faith discretion to select the contractors which in its opinion are most qualified to complete the required repairs and restoration notwithstanding the fact that such contractors may have submitted bids in excess of those submitted by other contractors. Seller shall keep Purchaser and the Board of Managers up to date and fully informed on the status, timing and cost of effecting the required repairs and restoration, and shall upon request of Purchaser or the Board of Managers provided such information with respect thereto as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Purchaser or the Board of Managers. The Citigroup Center shall be repaired and restored to a condition substantially conforming to the plans and specifications therefor in effect immediately prior to such fire or other casualty (except for commercially reasonable deviations therefrom required for upgrades to the Citigroup Center, as shall be determined by Seller and Purchaser, each in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, or as required to conform to applicable laws) or, to the extent that Seller and Purchaser shall both agree, in accordance with new plans and specifications, which plans and specifications may be prepared by or at the request of Seller, PROVIDED THAT the same are prepared in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 2.1 of Exhibit O of the Citibank Lease as to the submission of plans and specifications, and FURTHER PROVIDED THAT such plans and specifications shall be subject to the approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Insurance proceeds which are available to cover the costs of such repairs and restoration shall be paid over to Seller as collected from the applicable insurance companies, which proceeds shall be used by Seller solely to cover the payment of actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of the required repairs and restoration, it being agreed that (1) Seller and Purchaser shall share on a pro rata basis (as determined in accordance with their respective ownership interests in Citigroup Center as of the date of this Agreement) all costs and expenses which are incurred in connection with the making of such required repairs and restoration to the extent that the available insurance proceeds are not sufficient to cover the cost thereof, and (2) the remaining balance, if any, of such insurance proceeds after the payment of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of the required repairs and restoration shall be shared by Seller and Purchaser on a pro rata basis (as determined in accordance with their respective ownership interests in Citigroup Center as of the date of this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein above set forth in this subsection, it is agreed that (x) insurance proceeds which are -52- paid under insurance policies covering tenant improvements in the space currently occupied by Seller shall be allocated and available solely to cover the cost of repairing and restoring such tenant improvements, (y) to the extent such insurance proceeds are not sufficient to cover the cost of repairing and restoring such tenant improvements, all of such excess costs shall be covered solely by Seller, and (z) the remaining balance, if any, of such insurance proceeds after the payment of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of such repairs and restoration shall belong solely to Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein above set forth in this subsection, it is agreed that (A) at Purchaser's option, each of the tenants in Citigroup Center Office Unit One may be permitted to be responsible for the repair and restoration of its tenant improvements, including the selection and hiring of contractors, subcontractors and other professionals, all in accordance with the terms of its lease, (B) insurance proceeds which cover tenant improvements in Citigroup Center Office Unit One shall be allocated and available solely to cover the cost of repairing and restoring such tenant improvements, (C) to the extent such insurance proceeds are not sufficient to cover the cost of repairing and restoring such tenant improvements, all of such excess costs shall be covered by Purchaser and/or the tenants occupying space in Citigroup Center Office Unit One, and (D) the remaining balance, if any, of such insurance proceeds after the payment of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of such repairs and restoration shall belong solely to Purchaser and/or such tenants, as applicable. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in all reasonable ways to effect the timely commencement and completion of all such required repairs and restoration. (vii) The provisions of this subsection (b) shall to the full extent applicable, and for so long as the same shall be applicable, survive the Closing under this Agreement. From and after the Closing Date, the provisions of subsection (iv) above shall to the full extent applicable, and for so long as the same shall be applicable, be deemed without further act or instrument incorporated by reference in the Citibank Lease as if set forth at length therein. Upon the request of either party, Seller and Purchaser shall enter into a written amendment to the Citibank Lease memorializing the incorporation therein of any provisions deemed incorporated into the Citibank Lease pursuant to the preceding sentence, provided that the failure of the parties to enter into any such written amendment shall not affect the validity or applicability of any such provisions. (c) The parties hereto expressly intend that the provisions of this Section 16 and not Section 5-1311 of the New York State General Obligations Law, shall govern in the event of a fire or other casualty. -53- 17. CONDEMNATION. (a) If, between the date hereof and the Closing, fifty percent (50%) or more (measured by square footage) of the floor space of Citigroup Center shall be subject to a permanent taking or appropriation for public or quasi-public use under the power of eminent domain or a condemnation proceeding (a "Major Condemnation"), each of Purchaser and Seller shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to the other within ten (10) days after receiving written notice of such taking or appropriation, to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except such obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. If, between the date hereof and the Closing, any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are initiated which would result in the taking of all or any portion of the Unit, or any other portion of Citigroup Center other than a Major Condemnation, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. In such event, or in the event of a Major Condemnation as to which neither party shall exercise the termination option contained in the first sentence of this subsection, then (i) the parties shall proceed to Closing without reduction of or offset against any amounts payable hereunder or any other claim against the other, (ii) at the Closing, Seller shall assign and turn over, and Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep any condemnation proceeds in respect thereof, subject to the terms of the Condominium Declaration, and (iii) the parties hereto shall cooperate in all reasonable respects in order to effectuate such intent. The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive the Closing for a period without expiration. (b) The parties hereto expressly intend that the provisions of this Section 17 and not Section 5-1311 of the New York State General Obligations Law, shall govern in the event of a taking. 18. REMEDIES. If the Closing fails to occur by reason of the failure or refusal of either party to perform its obligations hereunder (for purposes of this Section 18, the "Defaulting Party"), then the other party (for purposes of this Section 18, the "Non-Defaulting Party") may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Defaulting Party and/or the Non-Defaulting Party may avail itself of all rights and remedies at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the remedy of specific performance. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to limit either party's right to enforce any covenant or indemnity which, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, is specified to survive the Closing, nor to prevent either party from proceeding against the other in an action at law for the recovery of actual damages (but not punitive damages) suffered as a result of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty -54- which, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, is specified to survive the Closing, subject to any other limitations contained herein. 19.

Purchaser's obligations under this Section 19(b) shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years. (c) NOTICE OF CLAIMS TO BE INDEMNIFIED.

The party indemnified shall promptly give written notice to the indemnitor of any claim or demand made upon it which is or may be indemnified against. The indemnitor shall have the right to defend against such claim or demand by counsel selected by indemnitor's liability insurer or such other counsel selected by indemnitor and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.

(f) The provisions of this Section 21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Closing. 22. ERISA. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that Purchaser is not an employee benefit plan or a governmental plan, or a party in interest of either of such plans, and that the funds being used to acquire the Unit are not plan assets or subject to state laws regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with respect to, a governmental plan.
