ARTICLE 3 TITLE MATTERS .1 Title to Real Property. Seller has previously delivered to Buyer (a) a commitment to issue an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance with respect to the Real Property issued by Chicago Title Insurance Company (the "TITLE COMPANY"), identified as Title Insurance No. TA#99(01)479, a copy of which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT D (the "TITLE REPORT"), (b) copies of all recorded documents referred to on Schedule B of the Title Report as exceptions to coverage (the "TITLE DOCUMENTS"), and (c) a survey of the Property prepared by Harwood-Goldberg Surveying & Engineering Associates, P.C., dated February 15, 1989, updated by visual examination on March 9, 1990 and on May 27, 1999 (the "SURVEY"). Buyer hereby confirms its receipt and approval of the Title Report, the Title Documents and the Survey and shall cause the Company to similarly approve the same at Closing. .2 Title Defects. .2.1 Definition of Permitted Exceptions. As used herein, the term "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS" shall mean and include all of the following: (a) applicable zoning and building ordinances and land use regulations, (b) all liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements and other matters of record except to the extent that the same are caused by the acts or omissions of Seller and are placed of record after the expiration of the period starting on October 5, 1999 and ending on the first to occur of (i) November 19, 1999 and (ii) the Contract Date (the "EXCLUSIVITY PERIOD"), the Existing Mortgage, (c) such other exceptions to title as are listed on the marked copy of Schedule B of the Title Report annexed hereto as EXHIBIT D, including (i) those of the Title Company's standard printed exceptions not indicated as deleted in EXHIBIT D, (ii) such state of facts as is disclosed in the Survey, (iii) such state of facts as would be disclosed by a physical inspection of the Property, (iv) the lien of taxes and assessments not yet due and payable (it being agreed by Buyer and Seller that if any tax or assessment is levied or assessed with respect to the Property after the date hereof and the owner of the Property has the election to pay such tax or assessment either immediately or under a payment plan with interest, Seller may elect to pay under a payment plan, which election shall, subject to Section 5.2, be binding on the Company), (v) any exceptions to title caused by Buyer, its agents, representatives or employees (provided, however, that Buyer agrees for itself and its agents, representatives and employees, that it shall not cause any exceptions to title without the prior written approval of Seller), (vi) any exceptions to title caused by the Company (as approved by Seller and Buyer), (vii) such other exceptions to title as the Title Company shall commit to insure over without any additional cost to the Company, whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding, indemnity of Seller or otherwise, and (viii) the rights of the tenants under the Leases as tenants only, and (d) any matters deemed to constitute additional Permitted Exceptions under Subsection 3.2.2. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the documents to be executed in connection herewith or pursuant hereto, any or all of the Permitted Exceptions may be omitted by Seller in the Deed without giving rise to any liability of Seller, irrespective of any covenant or warranty of Seller contained in the Deed (which provisions shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein). .2.2 Certain Exceptions to Title. Buyer shall have the right, on behalf of the Company to be formed, to object in writing to any title matters that are not Permitted Exceptions and that materially adversely affect the Company's title to the Real Property that may appear on supplemental title reports or updates to the Title Report issued after the date hereof (herein collectively called the "OTHER LIENS") within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof by Buyer. Unless Buyer shall timely object to such Other Liens, all such Other Liens and any matters that do not materially adversely affect the Company's title to the Real Property that are set forth in any such supplemental reports or updates shall be deemed to constitute additional Permitted Exceptions. Any exceptions that are timely objected to by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the "TITLE OBJECTIONS". Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any Title Objections, and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed ninety (90) days) for the purpose of such removal, which removal will be deemed effected by the issuance of title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title Objections. Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within five (5) days after receipt of any Buyer's notice of the Title Objections whether Seller elects to remove the same. If Seller is unable to remove or endorse over any Title Objections prior to the Closing, or if Seller elects not to remove one or more Title Objections, Buyer may elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and, thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive such Title Objections, in which event such Title Objections shall be deemed additional "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS" and the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price. .2.3 Discharge of Title Objections. If on the Closing Date there are any Title Objections that Seller has elected to pay and discharge, Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy the same, provided Seller shall either deliver to the Company at the Closing instruments in recordable form and sufficient to cause such Title Objections to be released of record, together with the cost of recording or filing such instruments, or cause the Title Company to insure over the same, without any additional cost to the Company, whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding, indemnity of Seller or otherwise. .3 Title Insurance. At the Closing, the Title Company together with the co-insurers named in the last sentence of this Section 3.3 shall issue to the Company an ALTA title insurance policies in the form of the Title Report (collectively, the "OWNER'S TITLE POLICY"), in the amount of $192,000,000.00, insuring that fee simple title to the Real Property is vested in the Company subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall be entitled to cause the Company to request that the Title Company and the co-insurers provide such endorsements (or amendments) to the Owner's Title Policy as Buyer may reasonably require, provided that (a) such endorsements (or amendments) shall either (i) be at no cost to, and shall impose no additional liability on, Seller or the Company, or (ii) have been agreed to by Seller on behalf of the Company, (b) Buyer's obligations under this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon the Company's ability to obtain such endorsements and, if the Company is unable to obtain such endorsements, Buyer shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the Transactions without reduction of or set off against the Purchase Price, and (c) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of Buyer's request unless Seller shall have expressly consented to such delay. Title insurance coverage shall be provided by (A) Chicago Title Insurance Company (through Title Associates) in the amount of $96,000,000; (B) Lawyers Title Insurance Corporation in the amount of $48,000,000; (C) First American Title Insurance Company (NY) in the amount of $20,000,000; and (D) Fidelity National Title Insurance Company of New York (through Royal Abstract) in the amount of $28,000,000. Buyer's counsel shall be responsible for coordinating the efforts of all co-insurers and Buyer shall cause such co-insurers to issue title policies that are identical to the Title Policy issued by the Title Company, in each case, with endorsements reasonably satisfactory to Seller coordinating such title insurance coverage. ARTICLE 4 BUYER'S DUE DILIGENCE/CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY .1 Buyer's Inspections and Due Diligence. Buyer acknowledges that commencing prior to the execution of this Agreement, Buyer has conducted its examinations, inspections, testing, studies and/or investigations (herein collectively called the "DUE DILIGENCE") of the Property being transferred to the Company, the Existing Mortgage, information regarding the Property and such documents in Seller's possession applicable to the Property, including the Title Report, the Survey, the Title Documents, the Leases, the Contracts, the Property Documents, the environmental reports listed on EXHIBIT E, and such other non-proprietary, non-privileged reports, documents, books and records that pertain to the Property being transferred to the Company as Buyer has deemed or shall deem necessary or appropriate (all of the foregoing documents being herein collectively called the "DOCUMENTS"). .2 Buyer's Acknowledgement of Prior Due Diligence. (a) Buyer acknowledges that Buyer (i) has already performed its due diligence inspection of the locale and leasing market of the Property and (ii) is satisfied with the market assumptions Buyer utilized in its analysis of the Property, the Company and determination of the Purchase Price (such as assumptions with respect to rental rates, leasing costs, vacancy and absorption rates, land values, replacement costs, maintenance and operating costs, financing costs, ETC.). (b) Existing Mortgage Loan. Buyer acknowledges its receipt of copies of (i) loan documents relating to the loan (the "EXISTING MORTGAGE LOAN") secured by the Existing Mortgage, (ii) organizational documents of Existing Lender and (iii) cancelled checks evidencing principal or interest payments heretofore made by or on behalf of Seller in respect of the Existing Mortgage Loan (Clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the "MORTGAGE ASSIGNMENT DOCUMENTS"). .3 Buyer's and Company's Certificate. The Company shall acquire the Property and Buyer shall purchase the Interests in the Company (and thereby acquire an indirect interest in the Property) "As Is", by relying on Buyer's inspections and other due diligence activities and only those representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Article 8. Buyer shall deliver to Seller and shall cause the Company to deliver at the Closing, a certificate in the form of EXHIBIT F, with respect to, among other things, the "As Is" nature of the Transactions and Buyer's Due Diligence. ARTICLE 5 ADJUSTMENTS AND PRORATIONS The following adjustments and prorations shall be made at the Closing: .1 Lease Rentals and Expenses. .1.1 Definition of "Rent". For purposes of this Article 5, the term "RENT" shall mean all base rents, percentage rents, additional rent and any tax and operating expense reimbursements and escalations due from the tenants under the Leases. .1.2 Rents. All collected Rents shall be prorated between Seller and the Company as of the day prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall be entitled to all Rents attributable to any period to but not including the Closing Date. The Company shall be entitled to all Rents attributable to any period on and after the Closing Date. For purposes of determining each of the Company's and Seller's PRO RATA share of percentage rents, tax and operating expense reimbursements and escalations, the amount "attributable" to the period prior to the Closing Date shall be equal to the aggregate amount of such Rents actually collected for the calendar year (or lease years or other applicable accounting periods under the leases) in which the Closing occurs multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days prior to the Closing Date that the applicable tenant leases space at the Real Property during the calendar year (or lease years or other applicable accounting periods under the leases) in which the Closing occurs and the denominator of which shall be 365. Except with respect to percentage rents (which shall be prorated as provided below), Rents not collected as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated at the time of the Closing. With respect to percentage rent due from any tenant, Buyer and Seller agree that at the Closing, estimated percentage rent shall be prorated for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs as and when collected. After the Closing, Buyer and Seller agree that the Company shall make a good faith effort to collect any Rents not collected as of the Closing Date on Seller's behalf and to tender the same to Seller upon receipt thereof (which obligation of the Company shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein); provided, however, that all Rents collected by the Company on or after the Closing Date shall first be applied to all amounts due under the Leases at the time of collection (I.E., current rents and sums due the Company as the current owner and landlord) with the balance (if any) payable to Seller, but only to the extent of amounts delinquent and actually due to Seller. The Company shall not have an exclusive right to collect the sums due to Seller under the Leases and Seller hereby retains its rights to pursue any tenant under the Leases for sums due Seller for periods attributable to Seller's ownership of the Real Property (including any percentage rent that may be due with respect to any period of time prior to the Closing, regardless of when the same is to be paid to the owner of the Real Property pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lease); provided, however, that Seller (a) shall be required to notify the Company in writing of its intention to commence or pursue such legal proceedings; (b) shall only be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings after the date that is three (3) months after the Closing; and (c) shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against any tenant seeking eviction of such tenant or the termination of the underlying Lease. The terms of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein. The Company shall receive a credit relating to the pre-paid rentals held by Seller, if any, covering the period commencing on the Closing Date. Such amount shall be distributed pursuant to the requirements of Section 5.5. .1.3 Reimbursable Lease Expenses. At the Closing, the Company shall reimburse Seller for the Reimbursable Lease Expenses to the extent required by the terms of Article 13. Such reimbursement shall be made pursuant to the requirement of Section 5.5. .2 Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes shall be prorated on a cash basis for the applicable tax year in which the Closing occurs. Such proration shall be calculated based upon the actual number of days in such year, with Seller being responsible for that portion of such year occurring prior to 11:59 p.m. of the day prior to the Closing Date and the Company being responsible for that portion of such year occurring thereafter. If the real estate tax rate and assessments have not been set for the year in which the Closing occurs, then the proration of such taxes shall be based upon the rate and assessments for the preceding year, and such proration shall be adjusted between Seller and the Company upon presentation of written evidence that the actual taxes paid for the year in which the Closing occurs differ from the amounts used at the Closing and in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.6. Seller shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable prior to the Closing Date and the Company shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable on and after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required by the foregoing to pay any installments of special assessments that have not been confirmed or that relate to projects that have not been completed on the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 5.2, Seller shall have no obligation to pay (and the Company shall not receive a credit at the Closing for) any real estate taxes (except for special assessments) to the extent that the Company is entitled after the Closing to reimbursement of such taxes and assessments, or the recovery of any increase in taxes and assessments, from the tenants under the Leases, regardless of whether the Company actually collects such reimbursement or increased taxes and assessments from such tenants, it being understood and agreed by Buyer and Seller that as among Buyer, the Company and Seller, the Company shall be responsible for payment of all of such real estate taxes and assessments, and the burden of collecting such reimbursements shall be solely on the Company. If the Property has been assessed for property tax purposes at such rates as would result in reassessment based upon the change in land usage or ownership of the Property, the Company shall pay all such taxes and Buyer hereby agrees, on behalf of the Company, to indemnify and save Seller, as a seller (but not in its capacity as a member of the Company), harmless from and against all claims and liability for such taxes. Such indemnity shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein. .3 Other Property Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the Property shall be prorated as of 11:59 p.m. of the day prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall pay all utility charges and other operating expenses attributable to the Property to, but not including, the Closing Date (except for those utility charges and operating expenses payable by tenants in accordance with the Leases) and the Company shall pay all utility charges and other operating expenses attributable to the Property on or after the Closing Date. To the extent that the amount of actual consumption of any utility services is not determined prior to the Closing Date, a proration shall be made at the Closing based on the last available reading and post-Closing adjustments between the Company and Seller shall be made within twenty (20) days of the date that actual consumption for such pre-Closing period is determined, which obligation shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein. Seller shall not assign to the Company any deposits that Seller has with any of the utility services or companies servicing the Property. The Company shall arrange with such services and companies to have accounts opened in the Company's name beginning at 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date.

(a) Shared Closing Costs. Buyer and Seller shall bear, on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective interests in the Company, (i) the Shared Mortgage Loan Expenses, and, without duplication, (ii) all premiums and customary charges in connection with the Owner's Title Policy (including the costs of owner endorsements agreed upon by Buyer and Seller), (iii) all recording and filing charges, (iv) all costs of complying with reasonable requests for due diligence materials by mutually satisfactory prospective lenders of the Mortgage Loan and otherwise cooperating with the conduct of such lenders' due diligence (collectively, the "SHARED CLOSING COSTS"), (v) any mortgage recording tax payable in respect of that portion of the principal amount of the Mortgage Loan that is in excess of the principal amount of the Existing Mortgage Loan outstanding as of the Closing Date (the "EXCESS MORTGAGE RECORDING TAX"), (vi) the fees and costs of counsel to each of Seller and Buyer directly attributable to the preparation and negotiation of the Operating Agreement, and (vii) the fees and costs of counsel to each of Seller and Buyer directly attributable to the negotiation of the Mortgage Loan with the Lender.

If at any time following the Closing Date, the amount of an item listed in any section of this Article 5 shall prove to be incorrect (whether as a result in an error in calculation or a lack of complete and accurate information as of the Closing), the party in whose favor the error was made shall promptly pay to the other party the sum necessary to correct such error upon receipt of proof of such error, provided that such proof is delivered to the party from whom payment is requested on or before one (1) year after the Closing (such period being referred to herein as the "POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENT PERIOD"). In order to enable Seller and Buyer to determine whether any such delayed adjustment is necessary, Buyer and Seller shall cause the Company to provide to Seller and Buyer current operating and financial statements for the Property no later than the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Post-Closing Adjustment Period.

In either such event, Seller shall have the right to cure such misrepresentation or breach and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed ninety (90) days) for the purpose of such cure. If Seller is unable or fails to so cure any such misrepresentation or breach of warranty, then Buyer, as its sole remedy for any and all such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect material representations or warranties, shall elect either (a) to waive such misrepresentations or breaches of warranties and consummate the Transactions without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price, or (b) to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller on or prior to the Closing Date, as the Closing Date may have been adjourned, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and, thereafter, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as provided in any of this Agreement that by its terms expressly provides that it survives the termination of this Agreement. If any such representation or warranty is untrue, inaccurate or incorrect, but is not untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such misrepresentation or breach of warranty, and Buyer shall be required to consummate the Transactions without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price. The untruth, inaccuracy or incorrectness of a representation or warranty shall be deemed material only if Buyer's aggregate damages resulting from the untruth, inaccuracy or incorrectness of the representations or warranties, taken together, are reasonably estimated to exceed FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($500,000.00). .3.5 Survival; Limitation on Seller's Liability. The representations and warranties made by Seller in Section 8.2 shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the Closing and Seller shall only be liable to Buyer hereunder for a misrepresentation or breach of warranty made herein or in any of the documents executed or delivered by Seller at or prior to the Closing with respect to which a claim is made by Buyer against Seller on or before the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the date of the Closing. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller for Seller's misrepresentations or breaches of warranties herein or in any documents executed or delivered by Seller at or prior to the Closing (including, but not limited to, any of Seller's representation letters delivered in lieu of tenant estoppels) shall be limited as set forth in Section 14.16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the Closing occurs, Buyer hereby expressly waives, relinquishes and releases any right or remedy available to it at law, in equity or under this Agreement to make a claim against Seller for damages that Buyer may incur, or to rescind this Agreement and the Transaction, as the result of any of Seller's representations or warranties being untrue, inaccurate or incorrect if (a) Buyer knew or is deemed to know that such representation or warranty was untrue, inaccurate or incorrect at the time of the Closing, or (b) Buyer's damages as a result of all such representations or warranties being untrue, inaccurate or incorrect, taken together, are reasonably estimated to aggregate less than TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($250,000.00). ARTICLE 9 COVENANTS .1 Buyer's Covenants. Buyer hereby covenants as follows: .1.1 Confidentiality. Buyer acknowledges that any information heretofore or hereafter furnished to Buyer or Lender with respect to the Company, the Interests or the Property has been and will be so furnished on the condition that Buyer and Lender maintain the confidentiality thereof. Accordingly, Buyer shall hold, and shall cause Lender and Buyer's and Lender's respective directors, officers and other personnel and representatives to hold, in strict confidence, and not at any time disclose to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Seller, any of the information in respect of the Company, the Interests or the Property delivered to or for the benefit of Buyer or Lender whether by agents, consultants, employees or representatives of Buyer or Lender or by Seller or any of its agents, representatives or employees, including any information heretofore or hereafter obtained by Buyer, Lender or any of Buyer's Representatives in connection with any studies, inspections, testings or analyses conducted by or for the benefit of Buyer or Lender as part of Buyer's or Lender's due diligence, as the case may be. If the Closing does not occur on or before the date specified in Section 6.1, or if negotiations with respect to the Transactions are terminated, Buyer shall promptly return, or cause to be returned, to Seller all copies of documents containing any of such information without retaining any copy thereof or extract therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Subsection 9.1.1, but subject to the immediately following sentence, Buyer or Lender may disclose such information on a need-to-know basis to their respective employees, members of professional firms serving it or potential lenders, and as necessary in order to comply with applicable laws and New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations. Buyer and Seller, for themselves and their respective affiliates, agree that any disclosure pursuant to this Subsection 9.1.1 or otherwise shall (i) be consistent with the structure of the Transactions and exclude mention of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Transactions or any other information obtained during the course of Buyer's or Lender's due diligence that is not required, by law or New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations, to be disclosed, (ii) describe the overall form of the Transactions, and (iii) to the fullest extent possible, must be pre-approved by Seller in writing. Buyer and Seller agree that, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Operating Agreement or any other agreement or document to the contrary, any damages suffered by Seller for the failure of Buyer or Lender to comply with the terms of this Subsection 9.1.1 shall be the responsibility of Buyer. By Buyer's execution of this Agreement, Buyer hereby confirms its agreement to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Seller for all claims, damages and expenses resulting from Buyer's or Lender's breach of this Subsection 9.1.1. .1.2 Buyer's Indemnity; Delivery of Reports.

Buyer shall deliver promptly to Seller copies of all third party reports commissioned by or on behalf of Buyer evidencing the results of tests, studies or inspections of the Property. .1.3 Limit on Government Contacts. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, except in connection with the preparation of a so-called "Phase I" environmental report with respect to the Real Property, Buyer shall not contact any governmental official or representative regarding the environmental condition of the Real Property without Seller's prior written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition, if Seller's consent is obtained by Buyer, Seller shall be entitled to receive at least five (5) days' prior written notice of the intended contact and to have a representative present when Buyer has any such contact with any governmental official or representative. .1.4 Managing Agent; Collective Bargaining Agreement Obligations.

Any employees at the Real Property who are subject to any collective bargaining agreement and such collective bargaining agreements are listed on EXHIBIT X. To the extent any collective bargaining agreement has been terminated or cancelled in connection with the Transactions, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, cause the Manager to offer employment to, and hire any or all employees formerly covered by, such terminated collective bargaining agreement. At Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause SLG and Manager to, indemnify, defend and hold Seller free and harmless from and against any and all liability, claims, actions, damages, judgments, penalties, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, accruing under or with respect to the agreements listed on EXHIBIT X after the date of the Closing to the extent such liabilities, claims, actions, damages, judgments, penalties, costs and expenses are related to actions taken, or omitted to be taken, by Buyer, the Company or Manager. Further, Buyer shall, and shall cause SLG and Manager to, indemnify, defend and hold Seller free and harmless from and against any and all liability, claims, actions, damages, judgments, penalties and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of any claim that Buyer, the Company or Manager shall have failed to adopt and/or assume any collective bargaining agreement and/or shall have failed to offer employment to all employees covered by such agreements, including any claims for termination pay; provided that the Company shall reimburse Buyer, SLG and/or Manager, as the case may be, an amount equal to ordinary and customary termination pay given to employees to whom employment was not offered. Buyer and Seller acknowledge that the agreement with Pritchard Industries automatically terminates in accordance with its terms at Closing. If Buyer and Seller mutually determine that written notice must be made to Pritchard Industries to effect or to confirm termination, Buyer and Seller shall cause an appropriate notice, in form and substance mutually satisfactory to Buyer and Seller, to be made to Pritchard Industries. .1.5 Contacting Labor Unions. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall not contact any official, representative or member of any labor union concerning the Property without Seller's prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Seller's sole discretion. 9.1.6 Survival. The provisions of Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement. .2 Seller's Covenants. Seller hereby covenants as follows: .2.1 Service Contracts. From and after the date hereof and until the first to occur of (i) the termination of this Agreement or (ii) the Closing Date, Seller will not enter into, extend, renew, replace or modify any Contract affecting all or a portion of the Property without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall furnish Buyer with a written notice of the proposed action, which shall contain information regarding the proposed action Seller believes is reasonably necessary to enable Buyer to make informed decisions with respect to the advisability of the proposed action. Any notice from Buyer rejecting the proposed action shall include a description of the reasons for Buyer's rejection. The foregoing consent requirement will not apply to any Contract entered into in the ordinary course of business (as extended, renewed, replaced or modified in the ordinary course of business) that can be terminated by the owner of the Property without penalty on not more than thirty (30) days' notice. .2.2 Maintenance of Property. Except to the extent Seller is relieved of such obligations by Article 11 and except with respect to facade maintenance and/or remediation (which shall be performed in accordance with Section 9.2.6), between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain and keep the Property in a manner consistent with Seller's past practices with respect to the Property; provided, however, that Buyer hereby agrees that the Company shall accept the Property subject to, and Seller shall have no obligation to cure, any violations of Laws, and any physical conditions that would give rise to violations, that exist on the last day of the Exclusivity Period or that arise between the last day of the Exclusivity Period and the Closing Date. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller will promptly advise Buyer of any written notice Seller receives after the date hereof from any governmental authority of the violation of any Laws regulating the condition or use of the Property. .2.3 Access to Property. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date (such period the "CONTRACT PERIOD"), Seller shall allow Buyer or Buyer's Representatives access to the Property upon reasonable prior notice at reasonable times provided (a) such access does not interfere with the rights of tenants or otherwise unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Property; (b) Buyer shall not contact any tenant without Seller's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (c) Seller or its designated representative shall have the right to pre-approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and be present during any physical testing of the Property; and (d) Buyer shall return the Property to the condition existing prior to such tests and inspections. Prior to such time as Buyer or any Buyer's Representative enters the Real Property, Buyer shall obtain policies of general liability insurance which insure Buyer, its agents and representatives with liability insurance limits of not less than ONE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) combined single limit for personal injury and property damage and name Seller and the managing agent of the Real Property as additional insureds and which are with such insurance companies, provide such coverages and carry such other limits as Seller shall reasonably require, and provide Seller with certificates of insurance evidencing that Buyer has obtained the aforementioned policies of insurance. Buyer hereby agrees that no information obtained pursuant to the foregoing or any additional investigations performed during the Contract Period shall (i) entitle Buyer to any adjustment in the Purchase Price or (ii) create any additional conditions precedent to Buyer's obligations to perform under this Agreement. The provisions of this Subsection 9.2.3 shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement. .2.4 Confidentiality. (a) To the extent Buyer provides to Seller information not available to the public in respect of Buyer and/or SLG, then as long as such information continues to be non-public information, Seller shall hold, and shall cause its directors, officers and other personnel and representatives to hold any such information, in strict confidence, and not disclose to any other person or entity (other than (i) investors in any separate account for whose benefit Seller's interest in the Company is to be held or any advisory council or other similar body or (ii) counsel, accountants and advisors such party deems necessary, and only to the extent such investors, advisory council (including Prudential's Investment Management Committee) or other similar body, counsel, accountants and advisors agree to keep the same strictly confidential) without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Closing does not occur, Seller shall promptly return to Buyer all copies of documents containing any of such information without retaining any copy thereof or extract therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Subsection 9.2.4, Seller may disclose such information on a need-to-know basis to its employees, members of professional firms serving it or potential lenders, and as any governmental agency may require in order to comply with applicable laws. Seller hereby confirms its agreement to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Buyer for all claims, damages and expenses resulting from Seller's breach of this Subsection 9.2.4. The provisions of this Subsection 9.2.4 shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement. (b) Seller is aware, and agrees to inform all persons to whom Seller provides such non-public information, that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has received, from an issuer, material, non-public information such as the information in question, from purchasing or selling the securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. 9.2.5 Property Manager's Closing Certificate; Property Manager Termination. (a) Seller shall request that the existing property manager of the Property provide to Seller prior to the Closing a certificate certifying as to the matters described in Subsection 8.2.2 to the extent appropriate. If Seller receives an executed version of such a certificate from the property manager (as the same may be amended or modified by the property manager, the "MANAGER'S CLOSING CERTIFICATE"), Seller shall deliver a copy of the same to Buyer promptly after receipt of the same. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that neither Buyer nor the Company shall be entitled to rely on the Manager's Closing Certificate and that a copy of the same will be provided to Buyer, if received, for informational purposes only. (b) Seller shall cause the termination of the agreement with the existing manager of the Property effective as of the Closing Date. 9.2.6 Facade Remediation. (a) Prior to Closing, Buyer and Seller shall jointly (i) determine the scope and extent of all facade remediation work, if any, necessary so that the Property complies with so-called "Local Law 10" and "Local Law 11" of The City of New York, (ii) determine a plan of action with respect to the general scope of facade remediation, including a budget for effectuating such plan, (iii) notwithstanding anything in the Management Agreement to the contrary, hire the architect, project engineer and contractors to effectuate such plan pursuant to agreements mutually satisfactory to Seller and Buyer, and (iv) in connection therewith, approve plans and specifications, drawings and all change orders. Seller shall be responsible for the costs of all such facade remediation work in accordance with the provisions of the approved contracts. (b) If Buyer and Seller are not able to agree as to any matter referred to in Subsection 9.2.6(a), either Buyer or Seller may submit the issue to arbitration in New York, New York in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules or other appropriate rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The laws of the State of New York shall be deemed to apply and control in such arbitration. If the AAA is not then in existence or does not desire to act, then either party may apply to a New York court having jurisdiction for the appointment of an arbitrator to hear the parties and determine the matter. Provided the rules and regulations of the AAA or the court, as the case may be, so permit, the AAA or such court shall select a single arbitrator within five (5) Business Days after such submissions or application, the arbitration shall commence five (5) Business Days thereafter and, if necessary, shall be conducted for at least seven (7) hours on each Business Day thereafter until completion. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall have more than a total of seven (7) hours to present its case and to cross-examine or interrogate Persons supplying information or documentation on behalf of the other party, and the arbitrator shall render a decision (including an award of costs to the prevailing party) within ten (10) days after conclusion of the arbitration, which will be final and conclusive upon both parties. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties submit to the IN PERSONAM jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County for the purpose of confirming any such award and entering judgment thereon. 9.2.7 Limited Guaranty Agreement of Rent Payments. Seller shall guaranty, in favor of the Company and solely in respect of Suites 2100, 2400, and 3601 of the Property, the receipt of not less than ONE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) in total gross rent payments (without reference to so-called "pass-throughs" or "reimbursables") during the one year period commencing on the Closing Date. The guaranty shall be substantially in the form of EXHIBIT Z (the "LIMITED GUARANTY AGREEMENT") and shall not be construed under any circumstances to be an assumption by Seller of any obligation with respect to reimbursable expenses, tenant improvement allowances, tenant work and the like (it being understood and agreed that such reimbursable expenses and capital costs shall be the costs of the Company). Amounts paid by Seller pursuant to this guaranty shall be net of all gross rent payments (without reference to so-called "pass-throughs" or "reimbursables") actually received by the Company with respect to such suites during such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and Seller agree that sixty percent (60%) of the aggregate amount actually paid by Seller to the Company pursuant to the Limited Guaranty Agreement shall be reimbursed by the Company to Seller, without interest, (a) in equal monthly installments over an 18-month period, commencing on the first day of the first month after the month in which the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date occurs; or (b) on any earlier date on which the Property or the Interests are transferred. The obligations of Seller under this Subsection 9.2.7 shall survive the Closing and shall not be merged therein. .3 Mutual Covenants. .3.1 Publicity. Seller and Buyer each hereby covenants that prior to the Closing neither Buyer nor Seller shall issue any press release or public statement (a "RELEASE") with respect to the Transactions without the prior written consent of the other except to the extent required by law and New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations. After the Closing, any Release issued by either Buyer or Seller or their respective affiliates shall be subject to the prior review and approval of the other party (not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except to the extent required by law and New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Subsection 9.3.1, Buyer and Seller, for themselves and their respective affiliates, agree that any Release issued pursuant to this Subsection 9.3.1 shall, if applicable, (i) be consistent with the structure of the Transactions and exclude mention of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Transactions that is not required, by law or New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations, to be disclosed, (ii) describe the overall form of the Transactions, and (iii) to the fullest extent possible, must be pre-approved by the other party in writing (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Buyer and Seller agree that, notwithstanding any provision in this letter, the Agreement, the Operating Agreement or any other agreement or document to the contrary, any damages suffered by Buyer or Seller for the failure of the other party to comply with the terms of this Subsection 9.3.1 shall be the responsibility of the breaching party. .3.2 Broker. Seller shall pay a brokerage commission due in connection with the Transactions to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement, and Buyer shall be responsible for commissions or other fees of any other brokers with whom it has dealt. Seller agrees to hold Buyer harmless and indemnify Buyer from and against any and all damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) suffered by Buyer as a result of any claims by any party claiming to have represented Seller as broker in connection with the Transactions. Buyer agrees to hold Seller harmless and indemnify Seller from and against any and all damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) suffered by Seller as a result of any claims by any party claiming to have represented Buyer as broker in connection with the Transactions. .3.3 Tax and Accounting Information. Buyer and Seller agree, for themselves and their respective affiliates, to maintain and apply at all times consistent and uniform practices and procedures with respect to any tax or accounting matters relating to the Transactions or the interests in the Company. Any disclosure by Buyer, Seller or any of their respective affiliates of any tax or accounting information relating to the Transactions or the interests in the Company (whether disclosed pursuant to, or as part of, a filing of any tax returns, financial statements or other documents with a government agency, the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise) (the "TAX AND ACCOUNTING INFORMATION") shall be subject to the prior review and approval of the other party, except to the extent required by law and New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Subsection 9.3.3, Buyer and Seller agree, for themselves and their respective affiliates, that any disclosure of Tax and Accounting Information shall, if applicable, (a) be consistent with the structure of the Transactions and exclude mention of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Transactions that is not required, by law or New York Stock Exchange Rules and Regulations, to be disclosed, and (b) to the fullest extent possible, must be pre-approved by the other party in writing. Buyer and Seller agree that, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Operating Agreement or any other agreement or document to the contrary, any damages suffered by any party for the failure of the other party to comply with the terms of this Subsection 9.3.3 shall be the responsibility of the party that has breached the terms hereof. .3.4 Tax Protests; Tax Refunds and Credits. Seller shall have the right to continue and to control the progress of and to make all decisions with respect to any contest of the real estate taxes for the Property due and payable for the applicable tax year in which the Closing occurs and all prior tax years. The Company shall have the right to control the progress of and to make all decisions with respect to any contest of the real estate taxes for the Property due and payable for all tax years subsequent to the tax year in which the Closing occurs. All real estate tax refunds and credits received after the Closing with respect to the Property shall be applied in the following order of priority: first, to pay the costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with obtaining such tax refund or credit; second, to pay any amounts due to any past or present tenant of the Real Property as a result of such tax refund or credit to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the Leases; and third, apportioned between the Company and Seller as follows: (a) with respect to any refunds or credits attributable to real estate taxes due and payable in the tax year in which the Closing occurs (regardless of the tax year for which such taxes are assessed), such refunds and credits shall be apportioned between the Company and Seller in proportion to the number of days in such tax year that each party owned the Property (with title to the Property being deemed to have passed as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date); (b) with respect to any refunds or credits attributable to real estate taxes due and payable during any period prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs (regardless of the tax year for which such taxes are assessed), Seller shall be entitled to the entire refunds and credits; and (c) with respect to any refunds or credits attributable to real estate taxes due and payable during any period after the tax year in which the Closing occurs (regardless of the tax year for which such taxes are assessed), the Company shall be entitled to the entire refunds and credits. .3.5 Survival. The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall survive the Closing (and not be merged therein) or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period equal to the longer of ten (10) years or the duration of the Company. ARTICLE 10 FAILURE OF CONDITIONS .1 To Seller's Obligations. If, on or prior to the Closing Date, (a) Buyer is in default of any of its obligations hereunder, or (b) any of Buyer's representations or warranties is untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, or (c) the Closing otherwise fails to occur by reason of Buyer's failure or refusal to perform its obligations hereunder in a prompt and timely manner, then Seller may elect to either (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Buyer; or (ii) proceed to close the Transactions. Seller's failure to either (A) form the Company or (B) transfer the Property to the Company shall not constitute a failure of condition precedent under this Agreement, if Seller notified Buyer in writing that Buyer has failed a condition precedent to Buyer's obligations under this Agreement, which condition had not theretofore been satisfied or waived, and as a consequence thereof, Seller was not prepared either to form the Company or to transfer the Property thereto. If this Agreement is so terminated, then Seller shall be entitled to the Deposit and may request that Escrow Agent deliver the Deposit to Seller pursuant to the terms of Article 12, whether held as cash or as a letter of credit, as liquidated damages, and thereafter neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any Section herein which expressly provides that it survives the termination of this Agreement. .2 To Buyer's Obligations. If, at the Closing, (a) Seller is in default of any of its obligations hereunder, or (b) any of Seller's representations or warranties are untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, or (c) the Closing otherwise fails to occur by reason of Seller's failure or refusal to perform its obligations hereunder in a prompt and timely manner, then Buyer shall have the right, to elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, promptly after which the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, or (ii) waive the condition and proceed to close the Transactions, or (iii) seek specific performance of this Agreement by Seller. As a condition precedent to Buyer exercising any right it may have to bring an action for specific performance hereunder, Buyer must commence such an action within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of Seller's default. Buyer agrees that its failure to timely commence such an action for specific performance within such ninety (90) day period shall be deemed a waiver by it of its right to commence an action for specific performance as well as a waiver by it of any right it may have to file or record a notice of LIS PENDENS or notice of pendency of action or similar notice against any portion of the Real Property. ARTICLE 11 CONDEMNATION/CASUALTY .1 Condemnation. .1.1 Right to Terminate. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any significant portion (as hereinafter defined) of the Real Property is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining actual knowledge thereof, and, thereafter, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right, at its respective election, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other no later than ten (10) days after the giving of Seller's notice, and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer or Seller to make such election. The failure by Buyer and Seller to so elect in writing to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. For purposes hereof, a "SIGNIFICANT PORTION" of the Real Property shall mean such a portion as shall have a value, as reasonably determined by Seller, in excess of FIVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00). If either party elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the provisions of Section 11.4 shall apply. .1.2 Assignment of Proceeds. If (a) neither Seller nor Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as provided for in Subsection 11.1.1 hereof, or (b) a portion of the Real Property not constituting a significant portion of the Real Property is taken or becomes subject to a pending taking, by eminent domain, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price; provided, however, that, at the Closing, Seller shall pay to the Company the amount of any award for or other proceeds on account of such taking which have been actually paid to Seller on or prior to the Closing Date as a result of such taking (less all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in obtaining payment of such award or proceeds) and, to the extent such award or proceeds have not been paid, Seller shall assign to the Company at the Closing (without recourse to Seller) the rights of Seller to, and the Company shall be entitled to receive and retain, all awards for the taking of the Real Property or such portion thereof. .2 Destruction or Damage. If any of the Property is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining actual knowledge thereof. If any such damage or destruction (a) is an insured casualty and (b) would cost less than FIVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00) to repair or restore, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Buyer shall acquire the Interests upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. In such event, Seller shall pay to the Company at Closing an amount equal to the deductible applicable under Seller's casualty policy, less all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in connection with the negotiation and/or settlement of the casualty claim with the insurer (the "REALIZATION COSTS"), and Seller shall assign to the Company all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction. If the Property is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date and the cost of repair would equal or exceed FIVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00) or the casualty is an uninsured casualty, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 11.2, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right, at its respective election, to terminate this Agreement. Buyer and Seller shall have thirty (30) days after Seller notifies Buyer that such a casualty has occurred to make such election by delivery to the other of a written election notice (the "ELECTION NOTICE") and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer or Seller to make such election. The failure by Buyer and Seller to deliver the Election Notice within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. If neither party elects to terminate this Agreement as set forth above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any and all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction, if any, and, if the casualty was an insured casualty, Seller shall pay the Company at Closing an amount equal to the deductible (less the Realization Costs) under Seller's casualty insurance policy (it being understood that the Company shall be responsible for any such deductible thereafter). .3 Insurance. Seller shall maintain the property insurance coverage currently in effect for the Property through the Closing Date. .4 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer. Upon such refund, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any Section herein which expressly provides that it survives the termination of this Agreement. .5 Waiver. The provisions of this Article 11 supersede the provisions of any applicable Laws with respect to the subject matter of this Article 11. ARTICLE 12 ESCROW .1 Escrow Deposits. The Deposit and any other sums that the parties agree shall be held in escrow (herein collectively called the "ESCROW DEPOSITS"), together with any interest earned thereon, shall be held by Escrow Agent, in trust, and disposed of only in accordance with the following provisions. (a) Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit, if made in cash, in an interest-bearing account at Citibank, N.A. and shall not commingle the Escrow Deposits with any funds of Escrow Agent or others. (b) If the Closing occurs, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Deposits if held as cash to, or upon the instructions of, Seller on the Closing Date. If the Deposit is held as a letter of credit then upon the Closing, Escrow Agent shall return such letter of credit to Buyer. (c) If for any reason the Closing does not occur, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Deposits (and all interest earned thereon if made in cash) to Seller or Buyer only upon receipt of a written demand therefor from such party, subject to the following provisions of this Subsection 12.1(c) or of Section 12.4, as applicable. If for any reason the Closing does not occur and Escrow Agent receives a written demand for payment of Escrow Deposits (and all interest earned thereon if made in cash) or a written demand for delivery of the Letter of Credit (if the Deposit was made with a letter of credit), Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party of such demand. If Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to either the proposed payment or the proposed delivery of the Letter of Credit within ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment or deliver the Letter of Credit to the party making the demand. If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold the Escrow Deposits until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer or a final judgment of a court. .2 Indemnity. The parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from Escrow Agent's mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent's scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Agent's duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of Escrow Agent. .3 Income Tax. Buyer shall pay any income taxes on any interest earned on and any other income derived from the Escrow Deposits. Buyer represents and warrants to Escrow Agent that its taxpayer identification number is pending. .4 Letter of Credit. If Buyer chooses to deliver a Letter of Credit instead of cash as the Deposit pursuant to Section 2.2, such Letter of Credit shall (a) be delivered to Escrow Agent, (b) be payable to Seller as beneficiary, (c) have an expiration date not earlier than one year from its date of issuance, (d) be in a face amount of SEVEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($7,500,000.00), (e) be drawable by Seller upon presentation to the issuer of a writing signed by a duly authorized officer of Seller stating either (i) that the beneficiary is entitled to receipt of the Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or (ii) the Letter of Credit will expire within thirty (30) days of the date on which the drawing is made and no replacement Letter of Credit has been delivered to Escrow Agent, and (f) shall constitute an irrevocable obligation by the issuer to make payment to Seller in the full amount outstanding under such Letter of Credit upon receipt of such a writing. If Seller draws upon the Letter of Credit in the circumstances described in Clause (ii), Seller shall be obligated to deliver the proceeds thereof to Escrow Agent who will hold the same as if the Deposit were made in cash pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. .5 Confirmation of Escrow. Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement in the place indicated on the signature pages hereof in order to confirm that Escrow Agent has received and shall (a) hold the Escrow Deposits if the same is made in cash, and the interest earned thereon and any other income derived therefrom, in escrow, and shall disburse the Escrow Deposits and the interest earned thereon and any other income derived therefrom, pursuant to the provisions of this Article 12, or (b) has received the Letter of Credit and shall hold such Letter of Credit until the Closing or demand is made upon Escrow Agent for such Letter of Credit pursuant to this Article 12. ARTICLE 13 LEASE EXPENSES .1 Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: "NEW LEASES" shall mean, collectively, any lease for space at the Real Property entered into between the Contract Date and the Closing Date. "PRE-CONTRACT LEASES" shall mean, collectively, any lease for space at the Real Property in effect as of the Contract Date. "REIMBURSABLE LEASE EXPENSES" shall mean, collectively, any and all fees paid by Seller prior to the Closing or costs and expenses incurred by Seller prior to the Closing arising out of or in connection with any extensions, renewals or expansions under any Lease exercised or granted between the Contract Date and the Closing Date, and any New Lease entered into in accordance with this Agreement. The Reimbursable Lease Expenses shall include (a) brokerage commissions and fees to effect any such leasing transaction, (b) expenses incurred for repairs, improvements, equipment, painting, decorating, partitioning and other items to satisfy the tenant's requirements with regard to such leasing transaction, (c) legal fees for services rendered in connection with the preparation of documents and other services rendered in connection with the effectuation of the leasing transaction, (d) if there are any rent concessions covering any period that the tenant has the right to be in possession of the demised space, the rents that would have accrued during the period of such concession prior to the Closing Date as if such concession were amortized over (i) with respect to any extension or renewal, the term of such extension or renewal, (ii) with respect to any expansion, that portion of the term remaining under the subject Lease after the date of any expansion, or (iii) with respect to any New Lease, the entire initial term of any such New Lease, and (e) expenses incurred for the purpose of satisfying or terminating the obligations of a tenant under a New Lease to the landlord under another lease (whether or not such other lease covers space in the Real Property). .2 Future Agreements and Modifications. From and after the date hereof and until the first to occur of (i) the termination of this Agreement or (ii) the Closing Date, Seller will not enter into any New Leases or amendments to Pre-Contract Leases affecting all or a portion of the Property without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall furnish Buyer with a written notice of the proposed action which shall contain information regarding the proposed action Seller believes is reasonably necessary to enable Buyer to make informed decisions with respect to the advisability of the proposed action. Any notice from Buyer rejecting the proposed action shall include a description of the reasons for Buyer's rejection. The foregoing consent requirement will not apply to any New Leases or unexecuted amendments to Pre-Contract Leases submitted to prospective or existing tenants for signature prior to the date hereof, provided that copies of any such new Leases or amendments to Pre-Contract Leases have been delivered to Buyer prior to the later of (y) the date hereof or (z) the date of any such amendment, modification, renewal, extension or expansion provided for or required by the terms of any Pre-Contract Lease. .3 Lease and Contract Expenses. The Company will be responsible for all obligations payable on or after the Closing Date pursuant to Pre-Contract Leases, New Leases entered into in accordance with this Agreement, and Contracts in effect as of the Closing Date, subject to the limitations set forth in Subsection 9.2.1. Such obligations, with respect to Pre-Contract Leases and New Leases, shall include all tenant costs and capital costs thereunder for which landlord is responsible, including free rent, tenant improvement allowances, tenant work and the like, provided that Seller was not obligated to complete fully or otherwise fully perform the foregoing prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as set forth in Subsection 9.2.6 and except for any leasing commissions resulting from any lease extension entered into with the law firm of Kreindler & Kreindler (the cost of which shall be borne by the Company), Seller will be responsible for any such obligation if, and to the extent, as of the Contract Date, such obligation was enforceable against, or payable by, Seller as a result of a state of facts existing on the Contract Date (without regard to when the obligation is payable or to be otherwise performed). By way of example, but without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, Seller will be responsible for all leasing commissions that are payable in installments with respect to an effective Pre-Contract Lease in its current lease term, but will not be responsible for any leasing commissions that become payable only upon the exercise of an extension option on a Pre-Contract Lease, which option has not been exercised on or prior to the Contract Date. .4 Lease Enforcement. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except to the extent that Seller's failure to act shall constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies), to enforce the rights and remedies of the landlord under any Pre-Contract Lease or New Lease, by summary proceedings or otherwise (including the right to remove any tenant), and to apply all or any portion of any security deposits then held by Seller toward any loss or damage incurred by Seller by reason of any defaults by tenants, and the exercise of any such rights or remedies shall not affect the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement in any manner or entitle Buyer to a reduction in, or credit or allowance against, the Purchase Price or give rise to any other claim on the part of Buyer. ARTICLE 14 MISCELLANEOUS .1 Assignment. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall assign this Agreement or their respective rights hereunder to any individual or entity without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent such party may grant or withhold in its sole discretion, and any such assignment shall be null and void AB INITIO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may assign its rights under this Agreement to a wholly owned subsidiary of Seller. .2 Designation Agreement. Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (herein collectively called the "REPORTING REQUIREMENTS") require an information return to be made to the United States Internal Revenue Service, and a statement to be furnished to Seller, in connection with the Transactions. Escrow Agent is either the person responsible for closing the Transactions (as described in the Reporting Requirements) or the disbursing title or escrow company that is most significant in terms of gross proceeds disbursed in connection with the Transactions (as described in the Reporting Requirements) (Escrow Agent in such capacity, "AGENT"). Accordingly: (a) Agent is hereby designated as the "REPORTING PERSON" (as defined in the Reporting Requirements) for the Transactions. Agent shall perform all duties that are required by the Reporting Requirements to be performed by the Reporting Person for the Transactions. (b) Seller and Buyer shall furnish, and shall cause the Company to furnish, to Agent, in a timely manner, any information requested by Agent and necessary for Agent to perform its duties as Reporting Person for the Transactions. (c) Agent hereby requests Seller to furnish to Agent Seller's correct taxpayer identification number. Seller acknowledges that any failure by Seller to provide Agent with Seller's correct taxpayer identification number may subject Seller to civil or criminal penalties imposed by law. Accordingly, Seller hereby certifies to Agent, under penalties of perjury, that Seller's correct taxpayer identification number is 22-1211670. (d) Each of the parties hereto shall retain this Agreement for a period of four (4) years following the calendar year during which the Closing occurs. .3 Survival/Merger. Except for the provisions of this Agreement that are explicitly stated to survive the Closing, (a) none of the terms of this Agreement shall survive the Closing, and (b) the delivery of the Deed and any other documents and instruments by Seller and the acceptance thereof by the Company or Buyer (as the case may be) shall effect a merger, and be deemed the full performance and discharge of every obligation on the part of Buyer, the Company and Seller to be performed hereunder. .4 Integration; Waiver. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto and the Joinder annexed hereto, embodies and constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the Transactions and all prior agreements, understandings, representations and statements, oral or written, are merged into this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument signed by the party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set forth in such instrument. No waiver by either party hereto of any failure or refusal by the other party to comply with its obligations hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent failure or refusal to so comply. .5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State in which the Real Property is located except to the extent its conflict of law principles would direct the application of the law of a different state or forum. .6 Captions Not Binding; Exhibits. The captions in this Agreement are inserted for reference only and in no way define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or of any of the provisions hereof. All references to "Articles," "Sections," "Subsections" and "Clauses" are to articles, sections, subsections or clauses of this Agreement except as otherwise stated to the contrary.

The Joinder annexed hereto is part of this Agreement and is fully incorporated herein. .7 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. .8 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any persons or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. .9 Notices. Any notice, request, demand, consent, approval and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed duly given or made at the time and on the date when received by facsimile (provided that the sender of such communication shall orally confirm receipt thereof by the appropriate parties and send a copy of such communication to the appropriate parties within one (1) Business Day of such facsimile) or when personally delivered as shown on a receipt therefor (which shall include delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service) or three (3) Business Days after being mailed by prepaid registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the address for each party set forth below.

WAIVERS BY GUARANTOR. Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Company: (a) Any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Guarantor, including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) Any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Agreement and any legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor's obligations hereunder; (c) The benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof; and (d) Notices, demands, presentments, demands for payment, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction. 7.

Except as is expressly provided to the contrary herein, the business, affairs, administration and termination of the Company shall be governed by the Act, but, to the extent permitted thereby, shall not be governed by any amendments to the Act that become effective after the date of this Agreement and that would only be applicable to the Company absent a provision in this Agreement to the contrary, unless such amendments are adopted as amendments to this Agreement pursuant to Section 15.11. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Members' duties and obligations to one another shall be the same as partners in a partnership governed by the relevant provisions of the Delaware Uniform Partnership Act and the case law interpreting such act. In no event shall the previous sentence be construed or applied in such a manner to cause the Company to be treated as a partnership for any purpose other than the determination of the Members' respective duties and obligations to one another. The interest of each Member in the Company shall be personal property for all purposes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Member individually shall have any ownership interest in any real or other property owned by the Company and all such property (including the Property) shall be owned by the Company.

Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the business of the Company shall be conducted so as to cause the Company's income and assets to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2), (c)(3) and (c)(4) and 856(d) of the Code (as if the Company were a REIT) as in effect from time to time ("REIT Requirements"), provided, however, that nothing contained in this Subsection 2.6(a) shall permit the Company or the Regular Managing Member to violate Subsection 6.1(d). The Regular Managing Member will be responsible for operating the Company in accordance with the foregoing requirements. In no event shall the Company, without the prior written approval of SLG, (1) provide services to any tenant of the Property that the Company is advised in writing by SLG or SLG Realty constitute noncustomary services for purposes of Section 856(d)(7) of the Code, (2) enter into any lease or other agreement with any tenant of the Property or service provider that could adversely affect SLG Realty's status as a REIT, or (3) acquire any stock in any corporation.

The Company shall not engage in any other business. .8 No Individual Authority. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Member, acting alone, shall have any authority to act for, or to create, undertake or assume any liabilities, obligations or responsibility on behalf of the other Member or the Company. .9 No Restrictions. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed so as to prohibit either Member or any Affiliate or any director, officer, partner, employee or other Person related to any of them from owning, operating, or investing in any real estate or real estate development not owned or operated by the Company, wherever located and whether or not the same competes with the Property. Each Member agrees that the other Member, any Affiliate or any director, officer, employee, partner or other Person related to such other Member may engage in or possess an interest in another business, venture or ventures, of any nature and description, independently or with others, including the ownership, financing, leasing, operation, management, syndication, brokerage and development of real property other than the Property, and neither the Company nor the Members shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to such independent ventures or to the income or profits derived therefrom. .10 Neither Responsible for Other's Commitments. Neither Member nor the Company shall be responsible or liable for any indebtedness or obligation of the other Member incurred either before or after the execution of this Agreement, except as to those joint responsibilities, liabilities, debts or obligations incurred pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and each indemnifies and agrees to hold the other harmless from such obligations and debts except as aforesaid. .11 Representations by Members. (a) Each Member represents and warrants to the other that (1) all transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be performed by it have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not require the consent or approval of any third party, (2) it has all necessary power with respect thereto, (3) the consummation of such transactions will not (and with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would not) result in a breach or violation of, or a default or loss of contractual benefits under, its organizational and/or operational documents, any agreement by which it or any of its properties is bound, or any statute, regulation, order or other law to which it or any of its properties is subject, or give rise to a lien or other encumbrance upon any of its properties or assets, (4) this Agreement is a valid and legally binding agreement upon such Member, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable "creditors' rights laws and principles of equity, and (5) such Member is not a "foreign person" as that term is defined in Section 1445 of the Code. (b) SLG further represents, warrants and covenants to Prudential that SLG is duly organized (or formed), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its State of organization and the State in which the Property is located, has all necessary power to execute and deliver this Agreement and all documents contemplated hereunder to be executed or delivered by SLG, and to perform all of its obligations hereunder and thereunder. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all documents contemplated hereunder to be executed or delivered by SLG, nor the performance of the obligations of SLG hereunder or thereunder, will result in the violation of any applicable law or any provision of the agreement of partnership or articles of incorporation and by-laws of SLG or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which SLG is bound. (c) Prudential further represents, warrants and covenants to SLG that Prudential is duly organized (or formed), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its State of organization and the State in which the Real Property is located and has all necessary power to execute and deliver this Agreement and all documents contemplated hereunder to be executed by Prudential and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the performance of the obligations of Prudential hereunder or thereunder, will result in the violation of any applicable law or any provision of the articles of incorporation and by-laws of Prudential or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which Prudential is bound. ARTICLE 3. TERM .1 Term. The Company shall commence on the date the Certificate of Formation is filed with the Delaware Secretary of State and shall dissolve upon the first to occur of the following: (a) Transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Property, other than (1) to a nominee or trustee of the Company for financial or other business purposes or (2) pledges to secure the Initial Mortgage Loan or any successor Mortgage Loan; or (b) Dissolution of the Company pursuant to the express provisions of Articles 10, 11, 12 or 13; or (c) the fiftieth (50th) anniversary of the date hereof. .2 Dissolution. The events of dissolution contained in Section 3.1 are the only occurrences permitting or requiring dissolution of the Company. Each Member waives all right, power and authority it may have under the Act or other legal or equitable rights to require a dissolution of the Company and/or partition of its assets other than as expressly provided in this Agreement. The insufficiency of Operating Cash Flow to meet operating and capital costs on a current basis shall not, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, cause, or give rise to any action or proceeding the result of which might be the dissolution of Company. ARTICLE 4. CAPITAL ACCOUNTS AND CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE MEMBERS .1 Initial Capital Accounts. Each Member's initial Capital Account shall be set forth in Exhibit B. .2 No Other Contributions. Except as required by this Article 4, neither Member shall have any obligation to make any contribution to the Company or to advance any funds thereto. .3 No Interest Payable. No Member shall receive any interest on its contributions to the capital of the Company. .4 No Withdrawals. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement (a) the capital of the Company may not be withdrawn, (b) no Member shall demand or receive a return of any portion of its capital account or any property of the Company, and (c) no Member shall be permitted to withdraw from the Company without the consent of all of the Members. .5 Additional Capital Contributions. (a) If after the date hereof, the Regular Managing Member believes that Operating Cash Flow (together with any reserves held for such purposes) is insufficient to timely pay budgeted operating and capital expenses of the Company pursuant to the approved Annual Operating Budget or the Annual Capital Budget, as the case may be, the Regular Managing Member shall give each Member a notice (a "Cash Needs Notice") specifying in reasonable detail (1) the amount and purpose of any such required capital, (2) subject to Subsection 4.5(c), the date on which such capital is required, and (3) the amount of each Member's pro rata share of such additional required capital in accordance with its Percentage Interest (the "Member's Requested Amount"), and (4) the reasons, to the extent ascertainable, that Operating Cash Flow (together with any reserves held for such purposes) is insufficient to meet timely the obligations or purposes for which such additional capital has been requested. (b) Each Member shall contribute to the Company, as an additional capital contribution, an amount equal to the applicable Member's Requested Amount no later than the date (the "Financial Need Date") specified in the Cash Needs Notice, which date shall not be earlier than ten (10) days after the date of receipt of the Cash Needs Notice. A contribution to the Company made by a Member pursuant to this Subsection 4.5(b) is referred to herein as an "Additional Capital Contribution." If a Member fails or refuses to make a capital contribution called for under this Section 4.5, the exclusive remedy of the Company and the other Member shall be as described in Subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 4.5. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 4.5(b), if the funds specified in the Cash Needs Notice are requested to pay for the costs incurred by the Company arising out of an emergency that in the good faith determination of the Regular Managing Member, threatens the preservation of all or any material part of any Property or the health or safety of any Person (an "Emergency), the Financial Need Date shall be seven (7) days after the date of the Cash Needs Notice; provided that if an Emergency shall exist and a Member (a "Borrowing Member") shall fail to advance to the Company the applicable Member's Requested Amount on or before the Financial Need Date, such amount may be advanced directly to the Company by the other Member on the Financial Needs Date and treated as a loan by the Member making such advance to the Borrowing Member (an "Emergency Loan"). Such Emergency Loan shall be repaid by the Borrowing Member within twenty (20) days after the Financial Need Date (such twentieth (20th) day following the Financial Need Date, the "Emergency Loan Repayment Date") together with interest thereon at the rate described below from the date of such advance to, but not including, the date of repayment thereof. If made, an Emergency Loan shall bear interest and be payable upon the terms described in Article 5 and any accrued interest shall be considered to be part of such Emergency Loan for all purposes. If not theretofore repaid by the Borrowing Member, the unpaid principal and interest owing on any Emergency Loan shall be paid out of distributions otherwise payable to the Borrowing Member under Article 9 and shall not give rise to any of the remedies set forth in Subsections 4.5(d) and (e). (d) If a Member (the "Failing Member") fails to contribute an amount equal to the entire amount required to be contributed by it by the Financial Need Date and if the other Member (the "Nonfailing Member") has made its entire contribution, then, the Nonfailing Member may, but need not: (1) withdraw from the Company its most recent proportionate contribution made pursuant to this Section 4.5, in which case the Company shall promptly repay the amount of such withdrawn contribution to the Nonfailing Member; (2) make a loan to the Company (a "Special Loan") in an amount equal to the sum of (x) the contribution that the Failing Member failed to make pursuant to this Section 4.5, and (y) the contribution made by the Nonfailing Member, in which case the full contribution made by the Nonfailing Member shall be deemed instead to be part of the funds advanced in connection with making such Special Loan. If made, a Special Loan shall bear interest and be payable upon the terms described in Article 5 and any accrued interest shall be considered to be part of such Special Loan for all purposes; (3) after the expiration of the Interests Transfer Lockout Period, fund the full amount of the capital due from the Failing Member as an Additional Capital Contribution to the Company on its own behalf, in which case Percentage Interests shall be adjusted as set forth in Subsection 4.5(e). (e) If the Nonfailing Member elects to fund the full amount of the capital required as an Additional Capital Contribution in accordance with Subsection 4.5(d)(3), then effective from the date of the making of such contribution, the Percentage Interest of the Failing Member shall be reduced by an amount (expressed as a percentage and rounded to two decimal places) equal to the ratio of (A) the amount of the capital contribution that the Failing Member fails to make, over (B) the aggregate amount of all capital contributions theretofore made by the Failing Member to the Company (less any capital withdrawals or distributions pursuant to Article 9). For the purpose of determining the ratio described in the preceding sentence, the Members shall be deemed to have made capital contributions in the amount of their respective Initial Capital Account Balances. If the Failing Member's Percentage Interest is decreased pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Nonfailing Member's Percentage Interest shall be simultaneously increased to an amount equal to 100% less the Failing Member's new Percentage Interest, as calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. From and after each time there is a change in the Percentage Interests of the Members pursuant to this Subsection 4.5(e), the definition of Percentage Interests under this Agreement shall automatically be changed, and each Percentage Interest allocation that is referred to in this Agreement shall be correspondingly changed on a percentage point for percentage point basis even if the term "Percentage Interests" is not used in the provision in which such allocation is referenced, including Section 9.2. .6 Effect of Change of Percentage Interest. If the Percentage Interests of the Members are changed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement during any Fiscal Year, the amounts of all items to be credited, charged or distributed (including pursuant to Sections 9.2 and 13.5) to such Members for such entire Fiscal Year in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests in the Company, shall be allocated between (a) the portion of such Fiscal Year that precedes the date of such change (and if there shall have been a prior change in such Fiscal Year, which commences on the date of such prior change) and (b) the portion of such Fiscal Year that occurs on and after the date of such change (and if there shall be a subsequent change in such Fiscal Year, that precedes the date of such subsequent change), in proportion to the number of days in each such portion, and the amounts of the items so allocated to each such portion shall be credited, charged or distributed to such Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests in the Company during each such portion of the Fiscal Year in question. .7 Financing. The Members hereby authorize the Company to borrow up to $120,000,000 from the Initial Lender (the "Initial Mortgage Loan"). .8 Adjustments in Interests Generally. The Members each hereby acknowledge that because of the difficulty in calculating the damage that may result from (a) failure of a Member to make an Additional Capital Contribution when required, and (b) failure to repay a Special Loan together with all interest thereon when due, the agreements set forth in this Article 4 permitting reductions of a Member's Percentage Interest as a result of such failures, and the basis of calculations for such reductions, have been openly and freely negotiated, and have been agreed to, as fair and reasonable liquidated damages by the Members as parties who are (a) sophisticated in business, real estate and finance, and (b) advised by experienced legal counsel. ARTICLE 5. LOANS BY MEMBER .1 Loans. Neither Member shall be obligated to lend any money to the Company and the Committee may not require such a loan to be made. Except for Special Loans and Emergency Loans made pursuant to Section 4.5 and the Initial Mortgage Loan described in Section 4.9, the Company shall not borrow any money (including any money borrowed pursuant to the Mortgage Loan) without the approval of the Committee pursuant to Article 6. No Emergency Loan or Special Loan shall be considered a capital contribution of any Member making such a loan and no such loan shall increase the Capital Account or Percentage Interest of such Member or entitle it to any increase in its share of the distributions of the Company. Each Special Loan or Emergency Loan made by either Member to the Company shall be an obligation of the Company, provided that (a) neither Member shall be personally obligated to repay the Special Loan or Emergency Loan or to make any contribution to the capital of the Company to enable the Company to repay the Special Loan or Emergency Loan and (b) the Special Loan or Emergency Loan shall be payable or collectible only out of the assets of the Company. All Special Loans and Emergency Loans made pursuant to Section 4.5 shall bear interest at the rate of 5% per annum above the "prime rate" or "reference rate" announced by Citibank N.A. (the "Prime Rate") from time to time while such Special Loans or Emergency Loans are outstanding, or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less. If Citibank N.A. ceases to announce the Prime Rate, the Members shall reasonably determine a substitute method for determining the Prime Rate. .2 Payment of Special Loans and Emergency Loans. Operating Cash Flow and Extraordinary Cash Flow shall be applied to the payment of Emergency Loans and Special Loans as set forth in Section 9.2. If at any time Special Loans shall be outstanding, and if the aggregate balances, including accrued interest, of such outstanding Special Loans made by the respective Members shall not be in the proportion of the respective Percentage Interests of the Members, then payment shall be made only upon the Special Loan of the Member whose loan balance, including accrued interest, is disproportionately high, until the balances (including interest) payable on the respective Member's Special Loans by both Members shall be in the ratio of the respective Percentage Interests of the Members. If at any time Emergency Loans shall be outstanding, and if the aggregate balances, including accrued interest, of such outstanding Emergency Loans made by the respective Members shall not be in the ratio of the respective Percentage Interests of the Members, then payment shall be made only upon the Emergency Loan of the Member whose loan balance, including accrued interest, is disproportionately high, until the balance (including interest) payable on the respective Member's Emergency Loans by both Members shall be in the ratio of the respective Percentage Interests of the Members. When the amounts of the Special Loan and/or Emergency Loan balances (including interest), as the case may be, of the respective Members are in the ratio of the Percentage Interests of the respective Members, all payments of interest on and repayments of the principal of such Special Loans or Emergency Loans shall be pro rata in accordance with the remaining balance (including interest) of each of the Special Loans or Emergency Loans. ARTICLE 6. MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY .1 Regular Managing Member. (a) Subject to the other provisions of this Article 6, the management of the Company shall be vested in SLG as Regular Managing Member, which shall be responsible for carrying out the day-to-day operations of the Company. Except for situations in which the approval of the Members or the Committee is required by this Agreement or by other nonwaivable provisions of applicable law, the Regular Managing Member shall have full authority, power and discretion to manage and control the business, affairs and properties of the Company, to make all decisions regarding those matters and to perform any and all other acts or activities customary or incident to the management of the Company's business. No Member other than the Regular Managing Member shall be an agent of the Company for the purpose of its business or have the authority to bind the Company by such Member's acts, except to the extent that authority has been expressly delegated in writing to such Member by the Regular Managing Member. (b) The Regular Managing Member shall be entitled to hold office until its resignation or removal. Upon the Regular Managing Member's resignation or removal, a replacement Regular Managing Member shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority in Interest of the Company. The Regular Managing Member, and each replacement Regular Managing Member appointed hereunder, shall at all times be a Member owning a percentage interest in both the capital and profits of the Company equal to at least thirty-five percent (35%). (c) Prudential shall have the right to remove SLG as Regular Managing Member for cause (as defined below) by delivering to SLG a written notification ("Removal Notice") of removal and stating the cause for that action. Prudential shall act as Regular Managing Member on behalf of the Company after it has removed SLG as Regular Managing Member. The grounds for removal "for cause" shall mean one or more of the following: (1) any willful and/or material misconduct or material breach by SLG in the discharge of its duties and obligations as Regular Managing Member; (2) any fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance by SLG of its obligations or covenants under this Agreement or under any provision of applicable law that Prudential determines in its reasonable discretion is material; (3) any material breach by the Company of its obligations to any lender, including the Initial Lender, resulting from the willful misconduct or material breach by SLG as described in Subsection 6.1(c)(1) that causes a material default under the Initial Mortgage Loan documents, the Mortgage Loan documents or any other loan document; (4) the termination of the Initial Management Agreement following the occurrence of the events described in Subsections (c) (as it applies to the Initial Manager), (d) (as it applies to the Initial Manager), (f) as it applies to the Initial Manager), (g), (h) or (i) of Section 10.1 of the Initial Management Agreement, or the resignation of the Initial Manager; and (5) if by operation of Subsection 4.5(e), SLG's Percentage Interest shall be reduced to thirty five percent (35%) or less. (d) The Regular Managing Member shall conduct the activities of the Company so as to qualify the Company as a "real estate operating company" ("REOC") within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. ss. 2510.3-101 (the "Plan Assets Regulation"). The "annual valuation period" of the Company for purposes of qualifying as a REOC under the Plan Assets Regulation shall be the ninety (90) day period commencing on each Anniversary Date (as defined below) unless the Company pre-specifies an earlier annual valuation period in accordance with the Plan Assets Regulation. "Anniversary Date" means each anniversary of the Company's first investment other than a short-term investment pending long-term commitment. .2 Duties and Obligations of the Manager. (a) The Regular Managing Member shall take all actions necessary or appropriate (1) for the continuation of the Company's valid existence as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware and of each other jurisdiction in which such existence is necessary to enable the Company to conduct the business in which it is engaged, and (2) for the accomplishment of the Company's purposes. (b) The Regular Managing Member shall devote to the Company such time as may be necessary for the proper performance of all of its duties under this Agreement, but the Regular Managing Member shall not be required to devote full time to the performance of such duties and may have other business interests or engage in other business activities. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, to share or participate in such other investments or activities of the Regular Managing Member. The Regular Managing Member shall not incur any liability to the Company or to any Member as a result solely of engaging in any other business or venture. (c) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Regular Managing Member shall not be obligated to perform any action as Regular Managing Member of the Company to the extent such action requires funding from the Company and such funds have not been provided subsequent to the issuance of a Cash Needs Notice pursuant to Section 4.5. .3 Restrictions on Authority of the Manager. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Regular Managing Member shall have no authority to make any Major Decision without the prior written consent of the Committee as provided in Section 6.4.

(b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, all decisions regarding the termination of any contractor, vendor or service provider (including the Initial Manager or any other property manager or leasing agent) that is an Affiliate of or otherwise related to any Member shall be made by the Committee members appointed or designated by the unaffiliated Member. .4 Executive Committee. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all Major Decisions shall be made by a Committee (the "Committee"), which, subject to Subsection 6.4(d), shall at all times consist of four (4) individuals, two (2) of whom shall be appointed by Prudential, and two (2) by SLG. Each Member may appoint an alternate for each individual appointed by it to the Committee, and each such alternate individual may act as if he or she is a member of the Committee at any time the member for whom the alternate is appointed is absent or unable to serve. Each Member shall have the power to remove any individual or alternate individual of the Committee appointed by it and simultaneously to appoint a replacement individual or alternate individual by delivering written notice of such removal and appointment to the Company and to the other Member.

(c) The Committee shall meet (1) at least once each calendar quarter (unless such meeting shall be waived by all Committee members) or (2) on the call of any two (2) individuals on the Committee upon five (5) Business Days' notice to all Committee members by telephone, electronic mail, telecopy or telegraph, at the location and particular time set by the Regular Managing Member or such other place and time as may be, from time to time, agreed upon by both Members. Meetings may also be held by telephone with the consent of all members of the Committee. An agenda for each meeting shall be prepared in advance by the members of the Committee in consultation with each other. The Committee shall cause written minutes to be prepared of all meetings held and actions taken by the Committee and shall deliver a copy thereof to each member of the Committee within ten (10) days after the date of the meeting. (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if by operation of Subsection 4.5(e) any Member's Percentage Interest is reduced to an amount greater than three percent (3%) and up to and including twenty-five percent (25%), such Member shall only be entitled to appoint one (1) individual to the Committee and the Committee shall then consist of three (3) individuals. If by operation of Subsection 4.5(e), any Member's Percentage Interest is reduced to three percent (3%) or less, such Member shall not be entitled to appoint any individual to the Committee and the Committee shall then consist of two (2) individuals both appointed by the other Member. If by operation of Subsection 4.5(e), such Member's Percentage Interest is subsequently increased to an amount greater than three percent (3%) but not greater than twenty five percent (25%), then such Member shall have the right to appoint one (1) individual to the Committee and the Committee shall consist of three (3) individuals. If by operation of Subsection 4.5(e), such Member's Percentage Interest is subsequently increased to an amount greater than twenty five percent (25%), then such Member shall have the right to appoint two (2) individuals to the Committee and the Committee shall consist of four (4) individuals. .5 Annual Budgets.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.5, if there is a net decrease in the Company's Minimum Gain for a taxable year then, except to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2), (3), (4) or (5), each Member shall be allocated items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in proportion to, and to the extent of the portion of such Member's share of the net decrease in the Company's Minimum Gain during such year.

The Qualified Income Offset Amount is the amount by which a Member's Adjusted Capital Account is exceeded by zero. If in any taxable year to which this Subsection 9.4(d) applies the amount of items of gross income of the Company is less than the Qualified Income Offset Amounts for all of the Members to which this Subsection 9.4(d) applies, then each Member to which this Subsection 9.4(d) applies shall be allocated a pro rata amount of gross income, and in subsequent taxable years each of such Members shall be allocated gross income equal to the amount which, when added to the allocations to such Member pursuant to this Subsection 9.4(d) in prior taxable years, will equal the Qualified Income Offset Amount applicable to such Member for such prior taxable year and for such subsequent taxable years. A Member's "Adjusted Capital Account" shall mean such Member's Capital Account (1) reduced for items described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) and (2) increased for (i) the amount of such Member's share of Minimum Gain, (ii) the amount of such Member's Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain and (iii) amounts such Member is obligated to restore to the Company (if any).

(g) Corrective Allocations. Any special allocations pursuant to Subsection 9.4(c), (d) or (e) shall be taken into account for the purpose of equitably adjusting subsequent allocations so that the net allocations, in the aggregate, allocated to each Member pursuant to this Article 9, and the Capital Accounts of each Member, shall as expeditiously as possible and to the extent possible without violating the constraints set forth in Subsection 9.4(c), (d) or (e), be the same as if no special allocations had been made under Subsection 9.4(c), (d) or (e). .5 Allocations of Profits and Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in this Agreement, (a) Profits shall be allocated: (1) first to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Losses allocated to them pursuant to the proviso at the end of Subsection 9.5(c), for all prior Accounting Periods, over (ii) the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to this Subsection 9.5(a)(1) for all prior Accounting Periods; and (2) then to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Losses allocated to them pursuant to Subsection 9.5(b)(3), for all prior Accounting Periods, over (ii) the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to this Subsection 9.5(a)(2) for all prior Accounting Periods; and (3) thereafter to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests. (b) Losses shall be allocated: (1) first to the Members, in proportion to and to the extent of the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Profits allocated to each Member pursuant to Subsection 9.5(a)(2) for all prior Accounting Periods, over (ii) the cumulative Losses allocated to such members pursuant to this Subsection 9.5(b)(1); (2) second to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Profits allocated to each Member pursuant to Subsection 9.5(a)(1) for all prior Accounting Periods, over (ii) the cumulative Losses allocated to such Members pursuant to this Subsection 9.5(b)(2); and (3) the balance, if any, to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests. (c) The Losses allocated pursuant to Subsection 9.5(b) shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be allocated without causing any Member to have a deficit in its Capital Account at the end of any Accounting Period. If some but not all of the Members would have a deficit in their Capital Accounts at the end of an Accounting Period as a result of the allocation of Losses pursuant to Subsection 9.5(b), the limitation set forth in this Subsection 9.5(c) shall be applied by allocating Losses hereunder only to the extent that such allocation would not cause a Member to have such a deficit in its Capital Account as a consequence of receiving such allocation of Losses (such allocation of Losses to be in proportion to Percentage Interests); provided, however, that if no Member may receive an additional allocation of Losses pursuant to this Section 9.5(c), such additional Losses shall be allocated solely to those Members who bear the economic risks for such additional Losses within the meaning of Section 704(b) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. .6 Allocations for Income Tax Purposes. The income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Company for federal, state and local income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as the corresponding items entering into the computation of Profits and Losses were allocated pursuant to Section 9.5; provided that solely for such income tax purposes and not for Capital Account purposes, income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Company shall be allocated among the Members so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted tax basis for federal income tax purposes of any asset and its Book Basis (a) at the time of contribution for any property contributed to the Company, and (b) at the time the Book Basis is adjusted, in the event any Company asset is revalued. If, for federal income tax purposes, SLG is deemed to have purchased 49.9% of the Property upon its purchase of its interest in the Company, the Company shall use the remedial allocation method as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d) in order to take into account such variation with respect to the Property. ARTICLE 10. ASSIGNMENT AND OFFER TO PURCHASE .1 Transfers. (a) Neither Member, nor any permitted assignee or successor in interest of either Member, may Transfer its interest in the Company, or in any part thereof, or in all or any part of the assets of the Company except as provided in this Article 10. Except as provided in Subsections 10.1(c), 10.1(d), 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) and for the limited purposes described therein only, neither Member shall have the right to Transfer less than all of its Entire Interest. (b) Transfer by Prudential of its Entire Interest in the Company to an Affiliate who is not an individual shall be a Transfer permitted under this Article 10 and Prudential shall not be required to obtain the consent of, nor offer its interest to SLG in connection with such a Transfer. (c) Without regard to the restrictions imposed by this Article 10 (excepting the obligation set forth in Subsections 10.1(f) and (g)), Prudential may allocate all or part of its interest in the Company to a separate account formed by Prudential pursuant to the provisions of Section 17B:28-7 N.J.S.A. (d) Neither Member shall permit a Transfer of a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest in such Member (at any one time or in the aggregate) or otherwise transfer decision-making authority over, or control of, such Member to another Person (any such instance, an "Entity Level Transfer"). No transferee, pursuant to an Entity Level Transfer, shall be entitled to (1) receive direct distributions or allocations from the Company, (2) have the right, directly or indirectly, to vote on any matters involving the Company or this Agreement, (3) be admitted directly as a member of the Company, or (4) otherwise act, with respect to its interests, in a manner that is likely to create recourse for, or liability to, the Company. (e) If either Member shall Transfer a portion of its Percentage Interest in the Company as provided in Subsection 10.1(c) that, together with other interests in the Company Transferred during the preceding twelve (12) months, represents more than a 49.9% interest in the total profits and capital of the Company, such Transfer, at either Member's option, shall be effected so as to avoid a termination of the Company for federal income tax purposes under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code, and for that purpose the Members agree to negotiate modifications to this Agreement in good faith. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall (1) the Property be Transferred or any Member be entitled to Transfer an interest in the Company or effectuate an Entity Level Transfer if, (i) in the reasonable judgment of either Member, (A) the same would result in a "prohibited transaction" or (B) the transferee would be a "party in interest", as such terms are defined in ERISA or any similar prohibition under applicable law, or (ii) such Transfer or Entity Level Transfer would result in a default of the terms of the Initial Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan, as applicable, or otherwise require the making of any material payment to the Initial Lender or the lender under the Mortgage Loan, as applicable; or (2) any Member be obligated to sell a percentage interest in the Company that is greater than forty nine percent (49.9%) of all Percentage Interests therein. (g) In the event of a termination of the Company within the meaning of Section 708 of the Code because of the dissolution of, or a Transfer of, any interest in a Member or an entity owning directly or indirectly a beneficial interest in a Member or a Transfer of a Member's interest in the Company, such Member shall indemnify the other Member (the "Indemnitee") and hold the Indemnitee harmless for, from and against any and all net adverse federal, state or local tax consequences (including any diminution or delay in any depreciation, recovery or amortization deductions and any and all penalties, interest, expenses and taxes on payments made pursuant to this Subsection 10.1(g)) which the Indemnitee shall sustain as a result of such termination. (h) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, a Transfer of a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest in SLG Realty or another transfer of decision-making authority over, or control of, SLG Realty shall be permitted provided that (1) SLG shall notify Prudential in writing as promptly as possible, consistent with applicable laws, of any such pending Transfer and in any event, no later than five (5) Business Days after the effective date of such a Transfer. The notice shall describe in reasonable detail the pending or actual Transfer, as the case may be, and shall identify the transferee and its principals. Prudential shall have the right, exercisable within thirty (30) days after the later of (i) making such notice or (ii) the actual Transfer, to initiate the buy-sell procedures pursuant to Section 10.3 without reference to the restriction imposed by the Interests Transfer Lockout Period. If the buy-sell procedures are initiated and Prudential is to sell its interest as a result thereof, SLG shall pay any and all transfer or similar tax that may be assessed as a consequence of such sale. .2 Other Assignments Void. Any purported Transfer of an interest in the Company not otherwise permitted by this Article 10 shall be null and void. .3 Transfer of Entire Interest to Other Member Buy-Sell. (a) Either Member (the "Initiating Member") may at any time following 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the thirty ninth (39th) month after the date hereof (the "Interests Transfer Lockout Period") give the other Member (the "Non-Initiating Member") a written notice (the "Buy-Sell Notice") of its desire to purchase the Non-Initiating Member's entire Percentage Interest (the "Entire Interest"). Such notice shall provide, in reasonable detail, the terms upon which the Initiating Member shall be willing to purchase the Non-Initiating Member's Entire Interest, including (1) the value ("Stated Value") that the Initiating Member places on all the assets of the Company, and (2) the applicable sales price (the "Buy-Sell Price") for the Non-Initiating Member's Entire Interest in the Company, which shall be based on a hypothetical Transfer of the Company for cash at the Stated Value as of the date of receipt of the Buy-Sell Notice and shall be the amount that the Non-Initiating Member would receive (excluding repayments of Special Loans and Emergency Loans, which shall be purchased from the selling Member pursuant to Subsection 10.7(c)) in a hypothetical liquidation of the Company's assets (in accordance with the procedures and priorities stated in Article 13) following such a hypothetical Transfer; provided, however, that, in making such calculation, it shall be assumed that no reserves are required pursuant to Subsection 13.5(b) with respect to contingent liabilities and no deduction from the hypothetical liquidation proceeds shall be made with respect to transfer and other taxes. (b) The Non-Initiating Member shall, on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the date of receipt of the Buy-Sell Notice, either (1) accept the offer of the Initiating Member unconditionally, or (2) deliver its own Buy-Sell Notice back to the Initiating Member in accordance with this Section 10.3, but with a Stated Value at least $1,000,000 greater than the Stated Value in the Buy-Sell Notice it received. If the Non-Initiating Member fails to respond to the Buy-Sell Notice in strict conformance with this Section 10.3 and within such thirty (30) day period, the failure to respond shall be deemed the Non-Initiating Member's election to sell its Entire Interest to the Initiating Member at the Buy-Sell Price. If the Non-Initiating Member responds to the Buy-Sell Notice by delivering its own Buy-Sell Notice to the Initiating Member, then the process described in this Section 10.3 shall commence anew, with the Non-Initiating Member deemed to be the Initiating Member and the Initiating Member deemed to be the Non-Initiating Member. Unless and until otherwise agreed in writing, the process shall continue until an offer is accepted or deemed accepted. (c) Upon acceptance or deemed acceptance of an offer pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to complete the documents necessary and appropriate to close the transaction, which documents shall incorporate the following terms: (1) The purchase price shall be calculated by the Accountant, with appropriate adjustments to reflect Company net income or loss from the date of the accepted Buy-Sell Notice through the closing date; (2) Closing shall occur at the office of the selling Member's counsel no later than ninety (90) days after the Non-Initiating Member's election, or deemed election, to sell its Entire Interest, or at such other time or place as may be otherwise agreed to in writing by the Non-Initiating Member and the Initiating Member; (3) There shall be no conditions to the buying Member's obligation to purchase, including conditions relating to "due diligence" or "contingencies;" (4) There shall be no representations or warranties required of either party except as to the authority of each Member, and the selling Member's marketable title to its Entire Interest. The selling Member shall continue to bear its proportionate liability for claims against the Company arising from pre-closing acts, omissions, or agreements; and (5) Each party shall bear its own attorney's fees in connection with the transaction. The buying Member shall bear the cost of any title searches or insurance it elects to purchase. Subject to the provisions of Subsection 10.7(f), all other expenses of the transaction shall either be charged to the Company before the closing or shall be shared by the buying Member and the selling Member in proportion to their Percentage Interests immediately prior to the closing. No brokerage commission shall be payable by either party or the Company. (d) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 10.3, if the original Non-Initiating Member shall purchase the original Initiating Member's Entire Interest pursuant to a Buy-Sell Notice sent by such Non-Initiating Member, and such Buy-Sell Notice shall have been received by the original Initiating Member during the period commencing on the first day of the fortieth (40th) month after the date hereof and ending on the last day of the seventy sixth (76th) month after the date hereof (the "Discount Period"), then the original Non-Initiating Member shall be entitled to purchase the Initiating Member's Entire Interest at a price equal to ninety-seven percent (97%) of the Buy-Sell Price as determined by such procedure. (e) In connection with the Transfer of one Member's Entire Interest to the other Member pursuant to this Section 10.3, all of the provisions of Subsections 10.7 (b), (c), (d), (e),(f), (g), (h), (i) and (j) shall be applicable to such Transfer. .4 Right of First Refusal. (a) Either Member may, at any time, sell its Entire Interest to a third party; provided that the Member seeking to sell its Entire Interest (the "Offeror") shall provide a written notice (a "Notice of Offer") to the other Member (the "Offeree"), which notice shall have attached thereto a copy of an executed agreement (a "Third Party Contract") relating solely to the proposed Transfer of the Offeror's Entire Interest. The Third Party Contract shall provide all of the terms related to the proposed Transfer, including (1) the identity of the buyer (and, if applicable, the identity of its principals) and (2) the purchase price to be paid for the Offeror's Entire Interest (the "Right of First Refusal Price"). The Offeree shall have a period of thirty (30) days (the "Right of First Refusal Period") from its receipt of a Notice of Offer to elect to purchase the Offeror's Entire Interest; provided that if the Offeree shall elect to purchase the Offeror's Entire Interest, and the Notice of Offer shall have been received during the Discount Period, then the Offeree shall be entitled to purchase the Offeror's Entire Interest at a price equal to ninety-seven percent (97%) of the Right of First Refusal Price. If the Offeree fails to respond to the Notice of Offer on or prior to the expiration of the Right of First Refusal Period, then the Offeror shall have the right to consummate the transactions contemplated in the Third Party Contract in accordance with the terms thereof. (b) Upon acceptance of a Notice of Offer pursuant to this Section 10.4, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to complete the documents necessary and appropriate to close the transaction, which documents shall incorporate the following terms: (1) There shall be no conditions to the buying Member's obligation to purchase, including conditions relating to "due diligence" or "contingencies;" (2) Closing shall occur at the office of the Selling Member's counsel at the time set forth in the Third Party Contract, or at such other time or place as may be otherwise agreed to in writing by the Members; (3) There shall be no representations or warranties required of either party except as to the authority of each Member, and the selling Member's marketable title to its Entire Interest. The selling Member shall continue to bear its proportionate liability for claims against the Company arising from pre-closing acts, omissions, or agreements; and (4) Each party shall bear its own attorney's fees in connection with the transaction. The buying Member shall bear the cost of any title searches or insurance it elects to purchase. All other expenses of the transaction shall either be charged to the Company before the closing or shall be shared by the buying Member and the selling Member in proportion to their Percentage Interests immediately prior to the closing. No brokerage commission shall be payable by either party or the Company. (c) In connection with the Transfer of one Member's Entire Interest to the other Member pursuant to this Section 10.4, all of the provisions of Sections 10.7 (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i) and (j) shall be applicable to such Transfer. .5 Transfer of the Property. (a) The Property may not be sold during the first four (4) years following the date hereof (the "Property Transfer Lockout Period") without the mutual consent of the Members. After the expiration of the Property Transfer Lockout Period, either Member (the "Seller Member") may give a written notice ("Sales Notice") to the other Member (the "Other Member") of its desire to sell the Property. The Sales Notice shall provide in reasonable detail the terms upon which the Seller Member wishes to sell the Property, including the price for the Property (the "Sales Price"), and shall be accompanied by computations with respect to each Member setting forth the amount (as to each Member, the "Interest Value") that each would receive (excluding repayments of Special Loans and Emergency Loans which would be repurchased from the Seller Member pursuant to Subsection 10.7(c)) in a hypothetical liquidation of the Company's assets (in accordance with the procedures and priorities stated in Article 13) following a hypothetical Transfer of the Property for cash at the Sales Price as of the date of receipt of the Sales Notice. (b) Within thirty (30) days after receiving the copy of the Sale Proposal, the Other Member may notify (a "Purchase Election Notice") the Seller Member that it has elected to purchase, on the terms provided in the Sales Notice, either the Property at the Sales Price or the Seller Member's Entire Interest at the Interest Value; provided that if the Other Member shall elect to purchase the Property or the Entire Interest of the Seller Member, and the Sales Notice shall have been received during the Discount Period, then the Other Member shall be entitled to purchase, at its option, either (i) the Property at a price equal to ninety seven percent (97%) of the Sales Price set forth in the Sales Notice or (ii) the Entire Interest of the Seller Member at a price equal to ninety-seven percent (97%) of the Interest Value of the Seller Member. If the Other Member elects to purchase either the Property or the Seller Member's Entire Interest in accordance with the Sales Notice, then the Members shall promptly proceed with the Transfer pursuant to this Subsection 10.5(b), the closing to take place at the office of the Seller Member's counsel within ninety (90) days following the date of receipt of the Sales Notice. The provisions of Subsections 10.7(a), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) shall apply to such a Transfer of the Property and the provisions of Subsections 10.7(b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i) and (j) shall apply to such a Transfer of an Entire Interest. All prorations, including real estate taxes and rents shall be made as of the date of transfer irrespective of whether the Property or an Entire Interest was conveyed. All real property transfer taxes shall be paid for by the Company and all recording fees shall be paid for by the Other Member irrespective of whether the Property or an Entire Interest was conveyed. Failure of the Other Member to deliver a Purchase Election Notice within such ninety (90) day period shall be deemed an election by the Other Member to proceed with a Transfer of the Property (but not of any Percentage Interests in the Company) to a third party and the Members shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Property to a third party and shall be obligated to do so for a period of nine (9) months thereafter; provided that such third party shall pay a purchase price equal to not less than ninety-eight percent (98%) of the Sales Price (net of legal fees and brokerage commissions). (c) If a Transfer to a third party has not been closed within such nine (9) month period, either Member may elect to remove the Property from the market, and thereafter the Property may not be offered for Transfer to any third party prior to reinitiating the process set forth in this Section 10.5. (d) During any period of time when either Member or the Company is actively marketing the Property pursuant to this Section 10.5, neither Member shall exercise its right to deliver a Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 10.3 except in the circumstances described in Subsection 10.1(h). .6 Assumption by Assignee. (a) Any Transfer of an Entire Interest in the Company to a third party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be a Transfer of all of the assignor's rights and obligations thereafter accruing hereunder, and the assignee shall expressly agree in writing to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement and assume and agree to perform all of the assignor's agreements and obligations existing or arising at the time of and subsequent to such Transfer. Upon any Transfer of the assignor's Entire Interest and after such assumption, the assignor shall be relieved of its agreements and obligations hereunder arising after such Transfer and the assignee shall become a Member in place of the assignor; provided, however, that the agreements and obligations of the assignor that existed at the time of such Transfer, including indemnification and other obligations and representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Transfer. An executed counterpart of each such Transfer of an Entire Interest in the Company and assumption of a Member's obligations thereafter accruing shall be delivered to each Member and to the Company. The assignee shall pay all expenses incurred by the Company in admitting the assignee as a Member. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no permitted Transfer shall terminate the Company. As a condition to any Transfer of an Entire Interest, the selling Member shall obtain such consents as may be required from third parties, if any, or waivers thereof. The other Member shall cooperate with the selling Member in obtaining such consents or waivers at no expense to the other Member. (b) If a Transfer of either Member's Entire Interest in the Company shall take place pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, then unless the Company is dissolved by such Transfer, the continuing Member on behalf of the Company promptly thereafter shall take all such actions as may be required by law to reflect such Transfer. .7 General Transfer Provisions. Subsections (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i) and (j) of this Section 10.7 shall apply to the Transfer of one Member's Entire Interest to the other Member pursuant to Sections 10.3 and 10.4. Subsections (a), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of this Section 10.7 shall apply to the Transfer of the Property by the Company to a Member pursuant to Section 10.5: (a) In the event of a Transfer of the Property, the purchase price shall be paid, at the Company's option, by certified checks or by wire transfers of immediately available funds to payees as designated by the Company. (b) In the event of the Transfer of an Entire Interest, the purchase price shall be paid, at the selling Member's option, by certified check drawn to the order of the selling Member (or as the selling Member shall otherwise direct), or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the selling Member. At the closing of a Transfer of an Entire Interest, there shall be an adjustment of the purchase price based upon a proration of any accrued income and expenses pursuant to an accounting of the Member's books as of the closing date; such accounting shall be audited by the Accountants within ninety (90) days thereafter. Either Member may require that a portion of the purchase price equal to the likely post-closing adjustment (as mutually agreed to by the Members, or as determined by the Accountants) shall be set aside and placed in escrow with an escrow agent reasonably acceptable to both Members. The escrow agent shall distribute the escrowed amount promptly after receipt of, and in accordance with, the Accountants' audit report. At closing the selling Member shall deliver to the purchasing Member a "nonforeign affidavit" as referred to in the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the purchasing Member together with original counterparts or certified copies of all leases and service contracts affecting the Property. (c) If there are any outstanding Special Loan(s) or Emergency Loan(s) by the selling Member to the Company, such Special Loan(s) or Emergency Loan(s), including accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be purchased by the purchasing Member for the full amount outstanding as a condition precedent to such Transfer. The purchase price for such Special Loan(s) or Emergency Loan(s) shall be paid, at the selling Member's option, by certified check drawn to the order of the selling Member, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the selling Member. At the closing, the selling Member shall deliver to the purchasing Member each note evidencing such Special Loan(s) or Emergency Loan(s). (d) On payment of the purchase price, the purchasing Member shall, at its option, as to each Company debt, obligation or claim against the Company for which the selling Member is or may be personally liable (except for any debts, obligations or claims that are fully insured by the public liability insurer(s) of the Company or another public liability insurer(s) acceptable to the selling Member), elect one of the following options: (1) obtain a release of the selling Member from all liability, direct or contingent, by all holders of each such Company debt, obligation or claim, (2) cause the same to be paid in full at the closing to the satisfaction of the selling Member, or (3) obtain an indemnity in form and substance acceptable to Selling Member indemnifying selling Member against claims that are not released or paid. In addition, the purchasing Member shall defend, indemnify and hold the selling Member harmless for, from and against any tort liability not insured against by the Member's general comprehensive insurance policies (other than those tort liabilities which are uninsurable) and which liability of the selling Member is based solely on its status as a Member with respect to the Property; provided, however, that such indemnification shall not extend to those claims arising in whole or in part from intentional acts or omissions or negligence proximately caused by the selling Member. If there are any Guaranty Reimbursement Obligations owing to Prudential under the Limited Guaranty Agreement, the same shall be fully satisfied as a condition precedent to any Transfer. Thereafter, both Members shall execute a mutual general release pursuant to which each shall waive and release the other from all liabilities and obligations (whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen or previously accrued or thereafter accruing) relating to each Member's Entire Interest or the Property, other than those arising from the indemnities given pursuant to this Subsection 10.7(d). (e) Following the giving of the Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 10.3 or the Notice of Offer pursuant to Section 10.4 or the Sales Notice pursuant to Section 10.5 in connection with a proposed Transfer to a Member and until the closing thereof, all Members (including the selling Member) shall continue to be entitled to distributions of Operating Cash Flow from the Company in accordance with Subsection 9.2(a). Pending the closing of such Transfer, neither Member shall be entitled to distributions of Extraordinary Cash Flow, if any, in accordance with Subsection 9.2(b), provided however, if such closing does not occur within the time period provided therefor in Section 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5, as applicable, both Members shall be entitled to any distribution of Extraordinary Cash Flow in accordance with Subsection 9.2(b). (f) If the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty, or if any entity possessing the right of eminent domain shall give notice of an intention to take or acquire a substantial part of the Property, and such damage occurs, or such notice is given between the date of the giving of the Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 10.3 or the Notice of Offer pursuant to Section 10.4, or the Sales Notice pursuant to Section 10.5 and the closing date of the purchase of an interest in the Company or the purchase of the Property, the Members shall be required to complete the transaction and the purchasing Member shall accept the Property in an "as is" condition and in lieu of any reduction in purchase price shall accept an assignment of any insurance or condemnation proceeds or an allocable portion thereof. (g) At the closing of a Transfer of the Property, the Members shall both execute and deliver a warranty deed with covenants against grantor's acts in recordable form, a bill of sale to the purchaser of all of the assets of the Company and Transfers to the purchaser of any and all leases or service contracts affecting the Property. In the case of the Transfer of an Entire Interest, the selling Member shall execute an assignment of its Entire Interest, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and adverse claims, which assignment shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the purchasing Member, and such other instruments as the purchasing Member shall reasonably require to Transfer the Entire Interest of the selling Member to such Person as the purchasing Member may designate. Such documents shall be prepared by the purchasing Member and closing costs and all other charges involved in closing the Transfer (except for attorneys' fees (each party paying their own) and title insurance costs (to be paid by the purchaser)) shall be prorated between the Members in the ratio of their respective Percentage Interests. Stamp, recording, transfer or similar taxes arising in connection with the Transfer of the Entire Interest, if any, shall be paid by the selling Member, and such taxes shall be paid by Company in connection with a Transfer of the Property. (h) The Company shall be dissolved as of the closing date of a Transfer of the Property, and on the closing date the Members shall file, or cause to be filed, a written certificate of cancellation with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with Act Section 18-203 and such other documents as shall be necessary or desirable to effectuate such dissolution. The Members shall cooperate in taking all steps necessary in connection with the dissolution of the Company. In the case of the Transfer of an interest in the Company, the Company shall not be dissolved, but the Members will execute and file on the closing date such amendment to the Certificate of Formation as may be appropriate to reflect the change in the identity of the Members. (i) It is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the requirements or obligations, if any, of one Member to sell its Entire Interest, or to join in the conveyance by the Company of the Property in accordance with the provisions of Sections 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5 shall be enforceable by an action for specific performance of a contract relating to the purchase of real property or an interest therein. If the selling Member shall have created or suffered any unauthorized liens, encumbrances or other adverse interest against either the Property or the selling Member's interest in the Company, the purchasing Member shall be entitled either to an action for specific performance to compel the selling Member to have such defects removed, in which case the closing shall be adjourned for such purpose, or, at the purchasing Member's option, to an appropriate offset against the purchase price. (j) In the event of the purchase of the Entire Interest of one Member by the other Member, at the option of the purchasing Member, the Entire Interest of the selling Member will be transferred to a nominee of the purchasing Member. .8 Indemnification for Securities Laws Violations. (a) SLG acknowledges that any Transfer of a direct or indirect interest in SLG may constitute or involve an offering or Transfer of securities for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and under applicable state securities laws. All such federal and state securities laws which may have application to any such transfers are referred to herein as the "Securities Laws." (b) If any Transfer of a direct or indirect interest in SLG shall be caused by or on behalf of SLG or any of its Affiliates, SLG shall be fully liable and responsible to Prudential for any and all liability, loss, cost, injury, damage or expense suffered or incurred by Prudential resulting from violations of any Securities Laws occurring in connection with such transfer; provided, however, that Prudential shall be responsible and liable to SLG for any and all liability, loss, cost, injury, damage or expense suffered or incurred by SLG resulting from any violation or breach of any Securities Laws occurring in connection with such Transfer based upon false or misleading information that is furnished in writing by Prudential in connection with such Transfer by SLG or any Member therein. (c) SLG shall indemnify, defend and hold Prudential and its Affiliates free and harmless for, from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, injury, damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense and settlement of the matter) suffered or incurred by reason of any breach by SLG of its obligations under this Subsection 10.8(b). .9 Compliance with ERISA. (a) Not less than five (5) Business Days before any direct Transfer in SLG or any indirect Transfer in SLG (but only if such indirect Transfer results from a Transfer of (1) a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest in any Person (at any one time or in the aggregate other than transfers of shares in SL Green Realty Corp. made in the ordinary course of business to or from non-Affiliates) or (2) decision-making authority over, or control of, such Person) SLG shall cause the proposed transferee to deliver to Prudential a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit D. (b) Prudential shall deliver to SLG a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit E attached hereto and made a part hereof on the closing or consummation of each of the following transactions: (1) an Emergency Loan or Special Loan; (2) a decrease of a Member's Percentage Interest pursuant to Subsection 4.5(d) hereof; and (3) a Transfer pursuant to Section 10.3 or 10.4. (c) If there is a proposed Transfer of the Property pursuant to Section 10.5, and either Prudential or SLG buys the Property, then, at the closing of the Transfer, (1) SLG shall deliver to Prudential a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit D, and (2) Prudential shall deliver to SLG a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit E. (d) Anything else in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Prudential shall have up to thirty (30) days following the receipt by it of a certification by SLG or a proposed transferee provided for in this Section 10.9 to notify SLG that it has determined that a proposed Transfer by SLG of its Entire Interest or a proposed Transfer of the Property would result in a Plan Violation. If Prudential notifies SLG that any such proposed transaction would constitute a Plan Violation (which notification shall contain an explanation of the reasons for such determination), the proposed transaction shall not be consummated and any attempt to do so shall be void. If, within such thirty (30) day period, Prudential notifies SLG that it has determined that no Plan Violation will result from the proposed transaction, or if Prudential does not deliver any notification to SLG within such thirty (30) day period, then the proposed transaction may be consummated; provided, however, that such transaction must be consummated no later than (1) the twentieth (20th) day after the delivery to SLG by Prudential of a notice that it has determined that the proposed transaction will not result in a Plan Violation or the expiration of the thirty (30) day period referred to in this Subsection 10.9(d), as the case may be, or (2) if the applicable Section of this Agreement provides for a closing that is later than such twenty (20) day period, the latest day that such Section permits such closing to occur; and provided, further, that, if any certification by SLG or a proposed transferee contains a material misrepresentation or omission, then, in such event, notwithstanding Prudential's lack of objection or deemed lack of objection thereto, the proposed transaction shall not be consummated and, if it is consummated, such transaction shall be void. Each (i) breach of representation or warranty given in connection with this Section 10.9, and (ii) violation of Sections 2.10(a)(5), this Section 10.9, or any other provision of this Agreement relating to ERlSA or Plan Violations will constitute a default entitling the Nondefaulting Member to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Subsection 12.1(c). (e) SLG shall indemnify Prudential and defend and hold Prudential harmless from and against all loss, cost, damage and expense that Prudential may incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of a (1) default, or (2) a breach of a representation or warranty given by SLG or any Affiliate of SLG under this Section 10.9, or (3) any material misstatement or omission in a certification by SLG or proposed transferee of SLG which is given to Prudential pursuant to this Section 10.9. The loss, cost, damage and expense will include, without limitation, attorney's fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense and settlement of claims and losses incurred in (i) correcting any Plan Violation, (ii) the Transfer of a prohibited Company interest, or (iii) obtaining any individual exemption for a Plan Violation that may be required, in Prudential's sole discretion. This indemnity shall survive (A) the Transfer of the Property or of SLG's Entire Interest and (B) termination of this Agreement. SLG shall not be required to indemnify Prudential pursuant to this Subsection 10.9(e) if any of Prudential's representations and warranties relating to ERISA or Plan Violations are materially false. (f) The Company will not enter into any agreements or suffer any conditions that Prudential reasonably determines would result in a Plan Violation. At SLG's request, Prudential shall deliver a notice of each such determination to SLG together with an explanation of the reasons for the determination. (g) Prudential and SLG will cooperate to monitor and correct Plan Violations. ARTICLE 11. DISSOLUTION OR BANKRUPTCY OF A MEMBER .1 Dissolution or Merger. If either Member shall be dissolved or merged with or consolidated into another Person, or if all or substantially all of its assets shall be Transferred, then unless such dissolution, merger, consolidation, or Transfer is expressly permitted under Article 10, such dissolution, merger, consolidation or Transfer shall, at the option of the other Member, be a dissolution of the Company, and the other Member shall be the Liquidating Member in the dissolution of the Company. The other Member's option shall be effective as of the date of such dissolution, merger, consolidation or Transfer and the option shall be exercised, if at all, within sixty (60) days after the other Member receives notice in writing of such dissolution, merger, consolidation or Transfer. .2 Bankruptcy, etc. If: (a) either Member or any general partner in a Member or any general partner in a general partner in a Member ("General Partner"), if such Member is a partnership, or any managing member in a Member or any managing member in a managing member in a Member ("Managing Member"), if such Member is a limited liability company, or any successor in interest thereto shall take, permit or acquiesce in an Insolvency Action with respect to Member, General Partner or Managing Member; or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order, judgment or decree approving a petition filed against either Member, or against any General Partner, or against any Managing Member, seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the present or any future federal bankruptcy code or any other present or future applicable federal, state or other statute or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors, and such Member, or any General Partner, or any Managing Member, shall acquiesce in the entry for such order, judgment or decree (the term "acquiesce" includes but is not limited to the failure to file a petition or motion to vacate or discharge such order, judgment or decree within thirty (30) days after the entry of the order, judgment or decree) or such order, judgment or decree shall remain unvacated and unstayed for an aggregate of ninety (90) days (whether or not consecutive) from the date of entry thereof, or any trustee, receiver, conservator or liquidator of said Member, or any General Partner, or any Managing Member, or of all or any substantial part of said Member's or General Partner's or Managing Member's property or its interest in the Company shall be appointed without the consent or acquiescence of said Member, or such General Partner, or such Managing Member, and such appointment shall remain unvacated and unstayed for an aggregate of sixty (60) days (whether or not consecutive); then such event shall cause the dissolution of the Company and the other Member shall be the Liquidating Member. ARTICLE 12. DEFAULT .1 Defaults. If either Member fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any agreement or instrument delivered pursuant hereto, or breaches any of the terms, conditions or covenants contained in any of the foregoing, (other than the obligation to make Additional Capital Contributions specified in Section 4.5) then the other Member (the "Nondefaulting Member") shall have the right to give such party (the "Defaulting Member") a notice of default ("Notice of Default"). The Notice of Default shall set forth the nature of the obligation giving rise to the default. (a) If such default is neither a failure to pay money nor a default with respect to the representations contained in Section 2.10 (for which no cure period shall apply) and if, within the thirty (30) day period following receipt of the Notice of Default, the Defaulting Member in good faith commences to perform such obligation and cure such default and thereafter prosecutes to completion with diligence and continuity the curing thereof and cures such default within a reasonable time (but no later than one year), then it shall be deemed that the Notice of Default was not given and the Defaulting Member shall lose no rights hereunder. If, within such thirty (30) day period, the Defaulting Member does not commence in good faith the curing of such default or does not thereafter prosecute to completion with diligence and continuity the curing thereof when and as required by the preceding sentence, then the Nondefaulting Member shall have the rights set forth in Subsection 12.1(c). (b) If such default is a failure to pay money when required, and if such sums of money shall be paid within forty-five (45) days after the date such money is due, together with any additional costs that the Company and/or the Nondefaulting Member may have incurred because the sums were not paid when due (payment of such additional costs shall not be credited to the Defaulting Member's Capital Account or count as a contribution to such Capital Account) then it shall be deemed that such Notice of Default was not given and the Defaulting Member shall lose no rights hereunder. If such sums are not so paid within such forty-five (45) day period, the Nondefaulting Member shall have the rights set forth in Subsection 12.1(c). (c) If any default is not cured as set forth in Subsection 12.1(a) or 12.1(b), the Nondefaulting Member, by giving the Defaulting Member written notice thereof within ninety (90) days of the expiration of the respective cure periods provided in Subsection 12.1(a) or 12.1(b), may treat such default as a dissolution of the Company, and the Nondefaulting Member shall be the Liquidating Member with the rights provided in Article 13 including the right to deliver a Demand Notice to the Defaulting Member; provided, however, that if such default is cured prior to the delivery of any notice provided for in this Subsection 12.1(c), then it shall be deemed that such notice may not be given and the Defaulting Member shall lose no rights hereunder. .2 Negation of Right to Dissolve by Will of Member. Except as set forth in Articles 10 and 11 and in Section 12.1, neither Member shall have the right to terminate this Agreement or dissolve the Company by its express will or by withdrawal without the consent of the other Member. Upon any dissolution occurring by operation of law or caused by the express will or withdrawal of one of the Members in contravention of this Agreement, the Member not causing the dissolution shall be the Liquidating Member. .3 Not Exclusive Remedy. The rights granted in Section 12.1 shall not be deemed an exclusive remedy of the Nondefaulting Member, but all other rights and remedies, legal and equitable, shall be available to it. .4 Waiver of Right of Partition. The Members agree that each part of the Improvements is an integrated unit of the Property, and it would be unfeasible and detrimental to the Property to have it partitioned, and therefore each Member does hereby waive any claim or right to petition any court for partition of the Property. ARTICLE 13. DISSOLUTION .1 Winding Up by Members. Upon dissolution of the Company by operation of law, by any provision of this Agreement or by agreement between the Members, the Company's business shall be wound up and all its assets distributed in liquidation. In such dissolution, except as otherwise expressly provided in Articles 10, 11 and 12, the Members shall be co-liquidating Members and shall continue to act through the Committee. In such event, the Members shall have equal rights to wind up the Company and shall proceed to cause the Company's property to be sold and to distribute the proceeds of Transfer as provided in Section 13.5. Except with respect to (a) all assets on which a single, non-severable mortgage or other lien will be in effect after such distribution, and (b) any assets the Members shall determine are not readily severable or distributable in kind, the Members, to the extent that liquidation of such assets is not required to fulfill the payments, if any, under Subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of Section 13.5, shall have the right to distribute, in kind, undivided interests in all or a portion of the assets of the Company to the Members pro rata as tenants in common in accordance with Subsection 13.5(e). .2 Winding Up by Liquidating Member. In a dissolution pursuant to the occurrences of events described in any of Articles 10, 11 or 12, the Liquidating Member shall be as therein provided and such Liquidating Member shall have the right to wind up the Company and cause the Company's assets to be sold and the proceeds of Transfer distributed as provided in Section 13.5. .3 Offset for Damages. In the event of dissolution resulting from an event described in Article 11 or 12, the Liquidating Member shall be entitled to deduct from the amount payable to the other Member pursuant to Subsection 13.2(a) or (b), Subsection 13.4 or Section 13.5 the amount of damages incurred by the Liquidating Member proximately resulting from any such event. .4 Distributions of Operating Cash Flow. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.7, upon the dissolution of the Company for any reason, during the period of liquidation and until termination of the Company, the Members shall continue to receive the Operating Cash Flow and to share profits and losses for all tax and other purposes as provided in Article 9 of this Agreement. .5 Distributions of Proceeds of Liquidation. The proceeds of liquidation shall be applied in the following order of priority: (a) First. To the payment of: (1) debts and liabilities of the Company except: (i) Special Loans, Emergency Loans or Loans that may have been made by either of the Members to the Company, and (ii) debts secured by lien on property sold subject thereto, provided that neither the Company nor either of the Members shall be personally liable on, or they shall be released from, such debts, and (2) expenses of liquidation; (b) Second. To the setting up of any reserves that the Liquidating Member or Members, as the case may be, may reasonably deem necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company or of the Members arising out of or in connection with the Company. Any such reserves shall be deposited by the Company in a bank or trust company acceptable to the Liquidating Member or Members, as the case may be, as escrow agent, to be held by it for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of the aforementioned liabilities or obligations, and at the expiration of such period as the Liquidating Member or Members, as the case may be, shall reasonably deem advisable, distributing the balance, if any, thereafter remaining, in a manner hereinafter provided; (c) Third. To the repayment of unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest on any Emergency Loans, but if the amount available for such repayment shall be insufficient to repay all Emergency Loans, then repayment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 5.2; (d) Fourth. To the repayment of unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest on any Special Loans that may have been made by either of the Members, but if the amount available for such repayment shall be insufficient to repay all Special Loans, then repayment shall be made in the manner provided in Section 5.2; (e) Fifth. After making all applicable allocations to the Members' Capital Accounts as provided in Article 9, to the Members in accordance with positive Capital Account balances. .6 Orderly Liquidation. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the discharge of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the Members to minimize the losses normally attendant upon a liquidation. .7 Financial Statements. During the period of winding up, all the financial statements provided for in Section 7.1 shall continue to be prepared and furnished to the Members. .8 No Restoration of Deficit Capital Accounts. At no time during or after the term of the Company shall a Member with a deficit balance in its Capital Account have any obligation to the Company or to another Member or to any other Person to restore such deficit balance. .9 Certificate of Cancellation. When all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company have been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been made therefor and all of the remaining property and assets of the Company have been distributed to the Members, a certificate of cancellation shall be executed and filed by the Members with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with Act Section 18-203.

Neither Member shall issue any press release or public statement (a "Release") with respect to the Company or this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Member (not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except to the extent required by law and New York Stock Exchange rules and regulations.

Borrower has disclosed to Lender all material facts and has not failed to disclose any material fact that could cause any representation or warranty made herein to be materially misleading.

Section 2.08 Illegal Activity. No portion of the Property has been or will be purchased, improved, fixtured, equipped or furnished with proceeds of any illegal activity by Borrower. ARTICLE III - COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender as follows: Section 3.01 Payment of Obligations and Defense of Liens. Borrower shall (a) timely pay and cause to be performed the Obligations and (b) warrant and defend the validity, enforceability and priority of the lien and security interests created by this Instrument against all Persons. Section 3.02 Continuation of Existence. Borrower shall not (a) dissolve, terminate, or otherwise dispose of, directly, indirectly or by operation of law, all or substantially all of its assets; (b) reorganize or change its legal structure without Lender's prior written consent; (c) change its name, address, or the name under which Borrower conducts its business without promptly notifying Lender; or (d) do anything to cause the representations in Section 2.02 to become untrue. Section 3.03 Taxes and Other Charges. (a) Payment of Assessments. Borrower shall pay when due and prior to the date any fine, penalty, interest or charge for nonpayment may be imposed, all taxes, liens, assessments, utility charges (public or private and including sewer fees), ground rents, maintenance charges, dues, fines, impositions, and public and other charges of any character (including penalties and interest) assessed against, or which could become a lien against, the Property ("Assessments"). Unless Borrower is making deposits per Section 3.10, Borrower shall provide Lender with receipts evidencing such payments (except for income taxes, franchise taxes, ground rents, maintenance charges, and utility charges) within sixty (60) days after their due date. (b) Right to Contest. So long as no Event of Default (defined below) is continuing, Borrower may, prior to delinquency and at its sole expense, contest any Assessment, but this shall not change or extend Borrower's obligation to pay the Assessment as required above unless (i) Borrower gives Lender prior written notice of its intent to contest an Assessment; (ii) Borrower demonstrates to Lender's reasonable satisfaction that (A) the Property will not be sold to satisfy the Assessment prior to the final determination of the legal proceedings, (B) it has taken such actions as are required or permitted to accomplish a stay of any such sale, or (C) it has furnished a bond or surety (reasonably satisfactory to Lender in form and amount) sufficient to prevent a sale of the Property; (iii) at Lender's option, Borrower has deposited the full amount necessary to pay any unpaid portion of the Assessments with Lender (provided that Lender shall not require such a deposit if Lender or its Affiliate, in its capacity as a member of Borrower, has consented in writing to such contest); and (iv) such proceeding shall be permitted under any other instrument to which Borrower or the Property is subject (whether superior or inferior to this Instrument); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the contesting of any income taxes, franchise taxes, ground rents, maintenance charges, and utility charges. (c) Documentary Stamps and Other Charges. Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments, charges, expenses, costs and fees, including registration and recording fees and revenue, stamp, intangible, and any similar taxes (collectively, the "Transaction Taxes") required in connection with the making and/or recording of the Documents. If Borrower fails to pay the Transaction Taxes promptly after demand therefor, Lender may (but is not obligated to) pay these and Borrower shall reimburse Lender on demand for any amount so paid with interest at the applicable interest rate specified in the Note, which shall be the Default Rate unless prohibited by Laws. All such sums paid by Lender shall, subject to the limitations in Section 1.03, be secured by this Instrument. (d) Changes in Laws Regarding Taxation. If any law (a) deducts from the value of real property for the purpose of taxation any lien or encumbrance thereon, (b) taxes mortgages or debts secured by mortgages for federal, state or local purposes or changes the manner of the collection of any such existing taxes, and/or (c) imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on any of the Documents or the Obligations, Borrower shall, if permitted by law, pay such tax within the statutory period or within thirty (30) days after demand by Lender, whichever is less; provided, however, that if, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, Borrower is not permitted by law to pay such taxes, Lender shall have the option to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable upon ninety (90) days' notice to Borrower. (e) No Credits on Account of the Obligations. Borrower will not claim or be entitled to any credit(s) on account of the Obligations for any part of the Assessments and no deduction shall be made or claimed from the taxable value of the Property for real estate tax purposes by reason of the Documents or the Obligations. If such claim, credit or deduction is required by law, Lender shall have the option in its reasonable discretion to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable upon ninety (90) days' notice to Borrower. Section 3.04 Defense of Title, Litigation, and Rights under Documents. Borrower shall forever warrant, defend and preserve Borrower's title to the Property, the validity, enforceability and priority of this Instrument and the lien or security interest created thereby, and any rights of Lender under the Documents against the claims of all persons, and shall promptly notify Lender of any such claims. Lender (whether or not named as a party to such proceedings) is authorized and empowered (but shall not be obligated) to take such additional steps as it may deem necessary or proper for the defense of any such proceeding or the protection of the lien, security interest, validity, enforceability, or priority of this Instrument, title to the Property, or any rights of Lender under the Documents, including the employment of counsel, the prosecution and/or defense of litigation, the compromise, release, or discharge of such adverse claims, the purchase of any tax title, the removal of any such liens and security interests, and any other actions Lender deems necessary to protect its interests. Borrower authorizes Lender to take any actions required to be taken by Borrower, or permitted to be taken by Lender, in the Documents in the name and on behalf of Borrower. Borrower shall reimburse Lender on demand for all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the foregoing and Lender's exercise of its rights under the Documents. All such expenses of Lender, until reimbursed by Borrower, shall be part of the Obligations, bear interest at the applicable interest rate specified in the Note, which shall be the Default Rate unless prohibited by Laws, and shall be secured by this Instrument, subject to the limitations in Section 1.03. Section 3.05 Operation and Maintenance of Property. (a) Repair and Maintenance. Borrower will, or will cause SL Green Management Corp. as agent of Borrower ("Agent") pursuant to that certain Leasing and Management Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between Borrower, as owner, and Agent, as agent (the "LMA") to operate and maintain the Property in good order, repair, and operating condition. Borrower will, or will cause Agent to, promptly make or cause to be made all necessary repairs, replacements, additions, and improvements necessary to ensure that the Property shall not in any material way be diminished or impaired. Borrower will not cause or allow any of the Property to be misused, wasted, or to deteriorate in any material respect and Borrower will not abandon the Property. No new building, structure, or other improvement shall be constructed on the Land nor shall any material part of the Improvements be removed, demolished, or structurally or materially altered, without Lender's prior written consent, which consent shall be deemed automatically granted if all members of Borrower unanimously consent to the same. (b) Replacement of Property. Borrower will, or will cause Agent to, keep the Property equipped and will replace all worn out or obsolete Property with new, comparable fixtures or Property as is appropriate in the prudent operation of the Property. Borrower will not, without Lender's prior written consent, remove any material or significant item or items constituting a portion of Property covered by this Instrument unless the same is replaced by Borrower with a new, comparable article (i) owned by Borrower free and clear of any lien or security interest (other than the Permitted Encumbrances and those created by this Instrument) or (ii) leased by Borrower (A) with Lender's prior written consent (provided, however that no such consent shall be required if the members of Borrower have unanimously approved the terms of such lease in writing) or (B) if the replaced Property was leased at the time of execution of this Instrument. (c) Compliance with Laws. The Property shall be maintained, used, and operated in compliance with all (i) present and future laws, Environmental Laws (defined below), ordinances, regulations, and requirements (including zoning and building codes) of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or agency applicable to Borrower or the Property (collectively, the "Laws"); (ii) orders, rules, and regulations of any regulatory, licensing, accrediting, insurance underwriting or rating organization, or other body exercising similar functions; (iii) duties or obligations of any kind imposed under any Permitted Encumbrance or by law, covenant, condition, agreement, or easement, public or private; and (iv) policies of insurance at any time in force with respect to the Property. If proceedings are initiated or Borrower receives notice that it or the Property is not in compliance with any of the foregoing, Borrower will promptly send Lender notice and a copy of the proceeding or violation notice. If the Property is not in compliance with all Laws, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Borrower, which may include monetary reserves or financial equivalents. (d) Zoning and Title Matters. Borrower shall not, without Lender's prior written consent (unless the members of Borrower have unanimously agreed in writing to do any of the foregoing, in which case, Lender's consent shall be deemed granted automatically): (i) initiate or support any zoning reclassification of the Property or variance under existing zoning ordinances; (ii) modify or supplement any of the Permitted Encumbrances (provided that Lender will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition any such modification or supplement unless the same materially adversely affects the operation of the Property or Lender's rights hereunder); (iii) impose any restrictive covenants or encumbrances upon the Property; (iv) execute or file any subdivision plat affecting the Property; (v) consent to the annexation of the Property to any municipality; (vi) permit the Property to be used by the public or any Person in a way that might make a claim of adverse possession or any implied dedication or easement possible; (vii) cause or permit the Property to become a non-conforming use under zoning ordinances or any present or future non-conforming use of the Property to be discontinued; or (viii) fail to comply with the terms of the Permitted Encumbrances. Section 3.06 Insurance. (a) Casualty Insurance. Borrower shall keep the Property insured for the benefit of Lender by (i) an "All Risk of Physical Loss" policy or the broadest form of extended coverage endorsement in an amount sufficient to prevent Lender from ever becoming a co-insurer under the policy or Laws, but in no event less than the lesser of (A) the Obligations or (B) the Full Insurable Value (defined below) of the Property, subject to verification by Lender, and with a deductible not to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00). "Full Insurable Value" shall mean the one hundred percent (100%) replacement cost of the Property, without allowance for depreciation and exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations, and footings, as determined, at Borrower's expense, periodically (but at least once per year) by the insurance company or an appraiser, engineer, architect, or contractor approved by said company and Lender; (ii) rent, business interruption, and/or use and occupancy insurance in an amount equal to one (1) year's total income from the Property including all rent, other income, and reimbursement of operating expenses; (iii) against damage by flood if the Property is located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, or any successor, as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Acts in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the original amount of the Note or (B) the maximum limit of coverage available for the Property under the Flood Acts; (iv) against damage or loss from (A) sprinkler system leakage and (B) boilers, boiler tanks, heating and air-conditioning equipment, pressure vessels, auxiliary piping, and similar apparatus, in the amount required by Lender; (v) during the period of any construction, repair, restoration, or replacement of the Property, a standard builder's risk policy with extended coverage in an amount at least equal to the Full Insurable Value of such Property, and worker's compensation, in statutory amounts; and (vi) against damage or loss by earthquake and other natural phenomenon in the amounts reasonably required by Lender. (b) Liability and Other Insurance. Borrower shall maintain comprehensive general liability insurance on an occurrence basis covering Borrower and Lender, as an additional insured, against claims for bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in, upon, or about the Property or any street, drive, sidewalk, curb, or passageway adjacent thereto, in the amount required by Lender (but in no event less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) combined single limit per occurrence, which may be based on a combination of primary coverage plus umbrella coverage), which insurance shall include operations and blanket contractual liability coverage which insures contractual liability under the indemnifications set forth in Section 8.02 (but such coverage or the amount thereof shall in no way limit such indemnifications). Upon request, Borrower shall maintain insurance or carry additional amounts of insurance covering Borrower or the Property as Lender shall reasonably require including against war risks. (c) Form of Policy. All insurance required under this Section shall be fully paid for, non-assessable, and the policies shall contain such provisions, endorsements, and expiration dates as Lender shall reasonably require. The policies shall be issued by insurance companies authorized to do business in the State of New York, approved by Lender, and having (i) an investment grade rating or claims paying ability assigned by one or more credit rating agencies approved by Lender (a "Rating Agency") and (ii) a general policy rating of A or better and a financial class of VI or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc. (or if a rating of A.M. Best Company, Inc. is no longer available, a similar rating from a similar or successor service). In addition, all policies shall (x)include a standard Lender clause, without contribution, in the name of Lender and (y) provide that they shall not be canceled, amended, or materially altered (including reduction in the scope or limits of coverage) without at least thirty (30) days' prior notice to Lender. (d) Original Policies. Borrower shall deliver to Lender (i) original or certified copies of all policies (and renewals) required under this Section and (ii) receipts evidencing payment of all premiums on such policies at least thirty (30) days prior to their expiration. If original and renewal policies are unavailable or if coverage is under a blanket policy, Borrower shall deliver duplicate originals, or, if unavailable, original certificates evidencing that such policies are in full force and effect together with certified copies of the original policies. (e) General Provisions. Borrower shall not carry separate or additional insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required under this Section unless endorsed in favor of Lender as per this Section and approved by Lender in all respects. In the event of foreclosure of this Instrument or other transfer of title or assignment of the Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Obligations, all right, title, and interest of Borrower in and to all policies of insurance then in force regarding the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder and unearned premiums thereon shall immediately vest in the purchaser or other transferee of the Property. No approval by Lender of any insurer shall be construed to be a representation, certification, or warranty of its solvency. No approval by Lender as to the amount, type, or form of any insurance shall be construed to be a representation, certification, or warranty of its sufficiency. Borrower shall comply with all insurance requirements and shall not cause or permit any condition to exist which would be prohibited by an insurance requirement or would invalidate the insurance coverage on the Property. (f) Insurance Approval. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3.06 to the contrary, Lender approves of the insurance provided by Borrower as described in the certificate annexed hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit G. Section 3.07 Damage and Destruction of Property. (a) Borrower's Obligations. If any damage to, loss, or destruction of the Property occurs (any "Damage"), (i) Borrower shall promptly notify Lender and take all necessary steps to preserve any undamaged part of the Property and (ii) if the insurance proceeds are made available for Restoration (defined below) (but regardless of whether any proceeds are sufficient for Restoration), Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion the restoration, replacement, and rebuilding of the Property as nearly as possible to its value and condition immediately prior to the Damage or a Taking (defined below) in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion ("Restoration"). Borrower shall comply with other reasonable requirements established by Lender to preserve the security under this Instrument. (b) Lender's Rights. If any Damage occurs and some or all of it is covered by insurance, then (i) Lender may, but is not obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower and Lender is authorized and empowered by Borrower to settle, adjust, or compromise any claims for the Damage (and Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Lender as Borrower's attorney-in-fact coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution for such purpose, provided that, Lender shall not exercise its rights under such power of attorney unless an Event of Default shall have occurred); (ii) each insurance company concerned is authorized and directed to make payment directly to Lender for the Damage; and (iii) Lender may apply the insurance proceeds in any order it determines (A) to reimburse Lender for all Costs (defined below) related to collection of the proceeds and (B) subject to Section 3.07(c) and at Lender's option, to (1) payment of all or part of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, in the order determined by Lender (provided that if any Obligations remains outstanding after this payment, the unpaid Obligations shall continue in full force and effect and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment thereof); (2) the cure of any default under the Documents; or (3) the Restoration. Any insurance proceeds held by Lender shall be held, to the extent easily accomplishable by Lender, in an interest bearing account in a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Lender with all interest thereon to be deemed part of the insurance proceeds and applied in accordance with this Section 3.07. If Borrower receives any insurance proceeds for the Damage, Borrower shall promptly deliver the proceeds to Lender. Notwithstanding anything in this Instrument or at law or in equity to the contrary, none of the insurance proceeds paid to Lender shall be deemed trust funds and Lender may dispose of these proceeds as provided in this Section. Borrower expressly assumes all risk of loss from any Damage, whether or not insurable or insured against. (c) Application of Proceeds to Restoration. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds (defined below) available to Borrower for Restoration if: (i) there shall then be no Event of Default; (ii) Lender shall be satisfied in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that (A) Restoration can and will be substantially completed within one (1) year after the Damage occurs and at least six (6) months prior to the maturity of the Note, and (B) Leases that are terminated or terminable as a result of the Damage cover an aggregate of less than fifty (50%) of the total rentable square footage contained in the Property or such Tenants agree in writing to continue their Leases; (iii) Borrower shall have entered into a general construction contract reasonably acceptable to Lender for Restoration (which contract shall automatically be deemed acceptable if the contract has been unanimously approved by the members of Borrower in writing); and (iv) in Lender's reasonable judgment, after Restoration has been completed the net cash flow of the Property will be sufficient to cover the operating expenses of the Property, including payments due and reserves required under the Documents. Notwithstanding any provision of this Instrument to the contrary, Lender shall not be obligated to make any portion of the Net Proceeds available for Restoration unless, at the time of the disbursement request, Lender has determined, in its reasonable discretion, that (y) Restoration can be completed at a cost that does not exceed the aggregate of the remaining Net Proceeds and any funds deposited with Lender by Borrower ("Additional Funds") (provided that the failure of Lender or any Affiliate of Lender, acting in its capacity as a member of Borrower only, to provide funds to Borrower for such deposit pursuant to the terms of Borrower's operating agreement shall not under any circumstances result in Lender's determination that there are not sufficient Additional Funds) and (z) the aggregate of any loss of rental income insurance proceeds that the carrier has acknowledged to be payable ("Rent Loss Proceeds"), the sums payable by tenants pursuant to their respective Leases, and any funds deposited with Lender by Borrower are sufficient to cover all costs and operating expenses of the Property, including payments due and reserves required under the Documents. (d) Disbursement of Proceeds. If Lender elects or is required to make insurance proceeds available for Restoration, Lender shall, through a disbursement procedure reasonably established by Lender, periodically make available to Borrower in installments the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender after deduction of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the collection and disbursement of such proceeds ("Net Proceeds") and, if any, the Additional Funds. The amounts periodically disbursed to Borrower shall be based upon the amounts currently due under the construction contract for Restoration and if requested by Lender, Lender's receipt of (i) appropriate lien waivers, (ii) a certification of the percentage of Restoration completed by an architect or engineer acceptable to Lender, and (iii) title insurance protection against materialmen's and mechanic's liens. At Lender's election, the disbursement of funds may be handled by a disbursing agent selected by Lender, and such agent's reasonable fees and expenses shall be paid by Borrower. The Net Proceeds, Rent Loss Proceeds, and any Additional Funds shall constitute additional security for the Loan and Borrower shall execute, deliver, file and/or record, at its expense, such instruments as Lender requires to grant to Lender a perfected, first-priority security interest in these funds. If the Net Proceeds are made available for Restoration and (A) Borrower refuses or fails to complete the Restoration, (B) an Event of Default occurs, or (C) the Net Proceeds or Additional Funds are not applied to Restoration, then any undisbursed portion may, at Lender's option, be applied to the Obligations in any order of priority Lender deems appropriate. (e) Real Property Law Section 254. The provisions of subsection 4 of Section 254 of the Real Property Law of New York covering the insurance of buildings against loss by fire that are inconsistent with the provisions of this Mortgage shall not apply to the terms of this Mortgage. Nothing contained herein, except for the immediately preceding sentence, shall be construed as depriving Lender of any right or advantage available under Section 254 of the Real Property Law of the State of New York, and all covenants herein that differ therefrom shall be construed as conferring additional and not substitute rights and advantages. Section 3.08 Condemnation. (a) Borrower's Obligations. Borrower will promptly notify Lender of any threatened or instituted proceedings for the condemnation or taking by eminent domain of the Property including any change in any street, whether as to grade, access, or otherwise (a "Taking"). Borrower shall, at its expense, (i) diligently prosecute these proceedings, (ii) deliver to Lender copies of all papers served in connection therewith, and (iii) consult and cooperate with Lender in the handling of these proceedings. No settlement of these proceedings shall be made by Borrower without Lender's prior written consent. Lender may participate in these proceedings (but shall not be obligated to do so) and Borrower will sign and deliver all instruments requested by Lender to permit this participation. (b) Lender's Rights to Proceeds. All condemnation awards, judgments, decrees, or proceeds of sale in lieu of condemnation ("Award") are assigned and shall be paid to Lender. Borrower authorizes Lender to collect and receive them, to give receipts for them, to accept them in the amount received without question or appeal, and/or to appeal any judgment, decree, or award. Borrower will sign and deliver all instruments requested by Lender to permit these actions. (c) Application of Award. Lender shall have the right to hold and apply any Award, subject to Section 3.08(d), as per Section 3.07 for insurance proceeds held by Lender. If Borrower receives any Award, Borrower shall promptly deliver them to Lender. Notwithstanding anything in this Instrument or at law or in equity to the contrary, none of the Award paid to Lender shall be deemed trust funds and Lender may dispose of these proceeds as provided in this Section. (d) Application of Award to Restoration. With respect to any portion of the Award that is not for loss of value or property, Lender shall permit the application of the Award to Restoration in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 if: (i) no more than (A) twenty (20%) of the gross area of the Improvements is affected by the Taking, (ii) the amount of the loss does not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the original amount of the Note; (iii) the Taking does not bar access to the Property from all public rights-of-way; (iv) there is no Event of Default at the time of application. Any portion of the Award that is (1) for loss of value or property or (2) in excess of the cost of any Restoration permitted above, may, in Lender's sole discretion, be applied against the Obligations or paid to Borrower. (e) Effect on the Obligations. Notwithstanding any Taking, Borrower shall continue to pay and perform the Obligations as provided in the Documents. Any reduction in the Obligations due to application of the Award shall take effect only upon Lender's actual receipt and application of the Award to the Obligations. If the Property shall have been foreclosed, sold pursuant to any power of sale granted hereunder, or transferred by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure prior to Lender's actual receipt of the Award, Lender may apply the Award received to the extent of any deficiency upon such sale and Costs incurred by Lender in connection with such sale. Section 3.09 Lien and Liabilities. (a) Borrower shall pay, bond, or otherwise discharge all claims and demands of mechanics, materialman, laborers, and others which, if unpaid, might result in a lien or encumbrance on the Property or the Rents (collectively, "Liens") and Borrower shall, at its sole expense, do everything necessary to preserve the lien and security interest created by this Instrument and its priority; subject to Borrower's right to contest any such claims or demands subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Subsection (b) of this Section 3.09. Nothing in the Documents shall be deemed or construed as constituting the consent or request by Lender, express or implied, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, mechanic or materialman for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any material for any improvement, construction, alteration, or repair of the Property. Borrower further agrees that Lender does not stand in any fiduciary relationship to Borrower. Any contributions made, directly or indirectly, to Borrower by or on behalf of any of its members (other than Lender in its capacity as Lender), shall be treated as equity and shall be subordinate and inferior to the rights of Lender under the Documents. (b) Right to Contest. So long as no Event of Default is continuing, Borrower may, prior to delinquency and at its sole expense, contest any claim or demand made by any mechanic, materialman or laborer, but this shall not change or extend Borrower's obligation to pay or satisfy such claim or demand as required above unless (i) Borrower gives Lender prior written notice of its intent to contest the claim or demand; (ii) Borrower demonstrates to Lender's reasonable satisfaction that (1) the Property will not be sold to satisfy the claim or demand prior to the final determination of the legal proceedings, (2) it has furnished a bond or surety (reasonably satisfactory to Lender in form and amount) sufficient to prevent the imposition of any lien or a sale of the Property; (iii) at Lender's option, Borrower has deposited the full amount necessary to pay any unpaid portion of the claim with Lender (provided that Lender shall not require such a deposit if Lender or its Affiliate, in its capacity as a member of Borrower only, has consented in writing to such contest); and (iv) such proceeding shall be permitted under any other instrument to which Borrower or the Property is subject (whether superior or inferior to this Instrument). Section 3.10 Tax and Insurance Deposits. At Lender's option following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall make monthly deposits ("Deposits") with Lender equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual Assessments (except for income taxes, franchise taxes, ground rents, maintenance charges and utility charges) and the premiums for insurance required under Section 3.06 (the "Insurance Premiums") together with amounts sufficient to pay these items thirty (30) days before they are due (collectively, the " Impositions"). Lender shall, in its reasonable discretion, estimate the amount of the Deposits until ascertainable. At that time, Borrower shall promptly deposit any deficiency. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of the Impositions. Borrower authorizes Lender or its agent to obtain the bills for Assessments directly from the appropriate tax or governmental authority. All Deposits are pledged to Lender and shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. The Deposits shall be held by Lender without interest (except to the extent required under Laws) and may be commingled with other funds. If (a) there is no Event of Default at the time of payment, (b) Borrower has delivered bills or invoices to Lender for the Impositions in sufficient time to pay them when due, (c) the Deposits are sufficient to pay the Impositions or Borrower has deposited the necessary additional amount, then Lender shall pay the Impositions prior to their due date. Any Deposits remaining after payment of the Impositions shall, at Lender's option, be credited against the Deposits required for the following year or paid to Borrower. If an Event of Default occurs, the Deposits may, at Lender's option, be applied to the Obligations in any order of priority. Borrower shall not claim any credit against the principal and interest due under the Note for the Deposits. Upon an assignment or other transfer of this Instrument, Lender may pay over the Deposits in its possession to the assignee or transferee and then it shall be completely released from all liability with respect to the Deposits. Borrower shall look solely to the assignee or transferee with respect thereto. This provision shall apply to every transfer of the Deposits to a new assignee or transferee. Subject to Article V, a transfer of title to the Land shall automatically transfer to the new owner the beneficial interest in the Deposits. Upon full payment and satisfaction of this Instrument or, at Lender's option, at any prior time, the balance of the Deposits in Lender's possession shall be paid over to the record owner of the Land and no other party shall have any right or claim to the Deposits. Lender may transfer all its duties under this Section to such servicer or financial institution as Lender may periodically designate and Borrower agrees to make the Deposits to such servicer or institution. Section 3.11 ERISA. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that (a) Borrower has not, or during the immediately preceding year has not exercised, the authority to appoint or terminate The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") as investment manager of any assets of the employee benefit plans whose assets are invested in the separate account (the "Account") that is the source of funds used by Lender to make the Loan, or to negotiate the terms of any management agreement between Prudential and such plan in connection with its investments in the Account; and (b) Borrower qualifies as an "operating company" or a "real estate operating company" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101(c). Borrower shall deliver to Lender such certifications and/or other evidence periodically requested by Lender, in its sole discretion, to verify these representations and warranties. Failure to deliver these certifications or evidence, breach of these representations and warranties, or consummation of any transaction which would cause this Instrument or any exercise of Lender's rights under this Instrument to (i) constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or (ii) violate ERISA or any state statute regulating governmental plans (collectively, a "Violation"), shall be an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything in the Documents to the contrary, no sale, assignment, or transfer of any direct or indirect right, title, or interest in Borrower or the Property (including creation of a junior lien, encumbrance or leasehold interest) shall be permitted that would, in Lender's opinion, negate Borrower's representations in this Section or cause a Violation. At least fifteen (15) days before consummation of any of the foregoing, Borrower shall obtain from the proposed transferee or lienholder (A) a certification to Lender that the representations and warranties of this Section will be true after consummation and (B) an agreement to comply with this Section. Section 3.12 Environmental Representations, Warranties and Covenants. (a) Environmental Representations and Warranties. Borrower represents and warrants, to Borrower's actual knowledge, exclusive of any knowledge of Lender or Lender's Affiliate in its capacity solely as a member of Borrower or as prior owner of the Property, as applicable, based upon the environmental site assessment report of the Property (the "Environmental Report"), that except as otherwise known to Lender or Lender's Affiliate solely in its capacity as a member of Borrower or as prior owner of the Property, as applicable, or as disclosed in the Environmental Report delivered to and approved by Lender: (i) there are no Hazardous Materials (defined below) or underground storage tanks affecting the Property ("affecting the Property" shall mean "in, on, under, stored, used or migrating to or from the Property") except for (A) routine office, cleaning, janitorial and other materials and supplies necessary to operate the Property for its current use and (B) Hazardous Materials that are (1) in compliance with Environmental Laws (defined below), (2) have all required permits, and (3) are in the amounts necessary to operate the Property; (ii) there are no past, present or threatened Releases (defined below) of Hazardous Materials in violation of any Environmental Law affecting the Property; (iii) there is no present non-compliance with Environmental Laws or with permits issued pursuant thereto; and (iv) Borrower has not received any written notice or communication from any person relating to Hazardous Materials affecting the Property.

Borrower shall cooperate with and provide access to Lender and such Person, and Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenants under their respective Leases. Section 3.13 Electronic Payments. All payments due under the Documents shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Borrower for this purpose with a depository reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall direct the depository to transmit such payments on or before their respective due dates to an account designated in writing by Lender. Lender shall have the right to require Borrower to select a different depository after thirty (30) days' prior notice. All costs of (a) establishing and maintaining such account and (b) the electronic funds transfers shall be paid by Borrower. Section 3.14 Inspection. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.12(c) with respect to environmental conditions, Borrower shall allow Lender and any Person designated by Lender to enter upon the Property and conduct tests or inspect the Property at all reasonable times upon reasonable notice; provided that, Lender shall use all reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenants under their respective Leases.

Section 3.18 Additional Security. No other security now existing or taken later to secure the Obligations shall be affected by the execution of the Documents and all additional security shall be held as cumulative. The taking of additional security, execution of partial releases, or extension of the time of payment obligations of Borrower shall not diminish the effect and lien of this Instrument and shall not affect the liability or obligations of any maker or guarantor. Neither the acceptance of the Documents nor their enforcement shall prejudice or affect Lender's right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or later held by Lender.

No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution upon the Property or any other property of Borrower shall affect the lien and security interest created by this Instrument and such liens, rights, powers, and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before. Lender may resort to any security given by this Instrument or any other security now given or hereafter existing to secure the Obligations, in whole or in part, in such portions and in such order as Lender may deem advisable, and no such action shall be construed as a waiver of any of the liens, rights, or benefits granted hereunder. Acceptance of any payment after any Event of Default shall not be deemed a waiver or a cure of such Event of Default and such acceptance shall be deemed an acceptance on account only. If Lender has started enforcement of any right by foreclosure, sale, entry, or otherwise and such proceeding shall be discontinued, abandoned, or determined adversely for any reason, then Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights under the Documents with respect to the Property, subject to the lien and security interest hereof. Section 6.07 Waiver of Rights and Defenses.

Regardless of consideration and without any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest in or to the Property, Lender may (a) release any person liable for payment of the Obligations or any portion thereof or any part of the security held for the Obligations or (b) modify any of the provisions of the Documents without impairing or affecting the Documents or the lien, security interest, or the priority of the modified Documents as security for the Obligations over any such subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest.

Upon request, whether Borrower's obligation to indemnify Lender arises under Article VIII or in the Documents, Borrower shall defend the Indemnified Parties (in Borrower's or the Indemnified Parties name) by attorneys and other professionals approved by the Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Parties may, in their sole discretion, engage their own attorneys and professionals to defend or assist them and, at their option, their attorneys shall control the resolution of any claims or proceedings. Upon demand, Borrower shall pay or, in the sole discretion of the Indemnified Parties, reimburse and/or indemnify the Indemnified Parties for all Costs imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any items set forth in this Article VIII and/or the enforcement or preservation of the Indemnified Parties' rights under the Documents. Any amount payable to the Indemnified Parties under this Section shall (a) be deemed a demand obligation, (b) be part of the Obligations, (c) bear interest at the applicable interest rate specified in the Note, which shall be the Default Rate unless prohibited by Laws, until paid if not paid on demand, and (d) be secured by this Instrument.

Borrower's obligations under Article VIII shall not be affected by the absence or unavailability of insurance covering the same or by the failure or refusal by any insurance carrier to perform any obligation under any applicable insurance policy. ARTICLE IX - ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS Section 9.01 Usury Savings Clause. All agreements in the Documents are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid under the Documents for the use, forbearance, or detention of money exceed the highest lawful rate permitted by Laws. If, at the time of performance, fulfillment of any provision of the Documents shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by Laws, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity. If Lender shall ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, the receipt of such excess shall be deemed a mistake and (a) shall be canceled automatically or (b) if paid, such excess shall be (i) credited against the principal amount of the Obligations to the extent permitted by Laws or (ii) rebated to Borrower if it cannot be so credited under Laws. Furthermore, all sums paid or agreed to be paid under the Documents for the use, forbearance, or detention of money shall to the extent permitted by Laws be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Obligations does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Obligations for so long as the Obligations are outstanding.

The provisions of the Documents shall be binding upon Borrower and its heirs, devisees, representatives, successors, and assigns including successors in interest to the Property and inure to the benefit of Lender and its heirs, successors, substitutes, and assigns. Where two or more persons have executed the Documents, the obligations of such persons shall be joint and several, except to the extent the context clearly indicates otherwise. The Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties had executed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Document, dated the date of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Document containing the same provisions. Section 9.07 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, (a) the Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Borrower and Lender with respect to the Loan and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements with respect to the Loan including the Loan application and Loan commitment and (b) Borrower is not relying on any representations or warranties of Lender except as expressly set forth in the Documents. Section 9.08 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. BORROWER AND LENDER WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM FILED BY EITHER PARTY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN, THE DOCUMENTS, OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. Section 9.09 New York Law Provisions. (a) Section 291-f Agreement. This Instrument is intended to be, and shall operate as, the agreement described in Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York and shall be entitled to the benefits afforded thereby. Borrower shall (unless such notice is contained in such tenant's Lease) deliver notice of this Instrument in form and substance acceptable to Lender, to all present and future holders of any interest in any Lease, by assignment or otherwise, and shall take such other action as may now or hereafter be reasonably required to afford Lender the full protections and benefits of Section 291-f. Borrower shall request the recipient of any such notice to acknowledge the receipt thereof. (b) Trust Fund. Pursuant to Section 13 of the Lien Law of the State of New York, Borrower shall receive the advances secured by this Instrument and shall hold the right to receive such advances as a trust fund to be applied first for the purpose of paying the cost of any improvement and shall apply such advances first to the payment of the cost of any such improvement on the Property before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose. (c) Mortgage of Definite Amount. --------------------------- (i) New York Tax Law Section 256. If, by reason of the additional sums that may become secured by the lien of this Instrument pursuant to the terms hereof, a court or other governmental authority having jurisdiction at any time shall determine that this Instrument falls within the ambit of Section 256 of the Tax Law of the State of New York, then Lender reserves the right, in its discretion, to elect not to have such additional sums secured by this Instrument and thereby reduce the Obligations secured hereby to a definite amount equal to the principal amount of the Note, interest thereon at the rate provided in the Note, plus any disbursements made to protect the security of this Instrument, with interest on such disbursements at the Default Rate, plus any such other sums as by statute or judicial interpretation now or hereafter may be permitted to be secured by the lien of a mortgage without incurring any additional mortgage recording tax. Any election by Lender to so reduce the indebtedness secured by this Instrument shall in no event be deemed a release, waiver or discharge by Lender of Borrower's obligation to pay or reimburse Lender for such sums. (ii) Sums Deemed to be Interest. Any sums, late charges or liquidated damages, that may become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Note and/or this Instrument and that are in the nature of interest (A) shall for the purpose of determining the amount of mortgage recording tax due and payable on this Instrument, be considered as additional interest, whether or not so denominated, (B) shall be secured by the lien of this Instrument to the fullest extent possible without causing this Instrument to be covered by Section 256 of the Tax Law of the State of New York, and (C) shall not be deemed principal and shall not accrue any interest. (d) Assignment of Instrument. Upon payment in full of the Obligations, Lender will execute and deliver, at Borrower's election and at Borrower's direction, such customary and standard documents as may reasonably be required to release, satisfy or assign this Instrument of record, provided that Lender shall not be required to make any representations and warranties therein other than a representation as to the then outstanding amount of the Obligations.

W I T N E S S E T H: - - - - - - - - - - WHEREAS, Lender is the owner and holder of a certain mortgage spread, consolidated and modified by that certain Agreement of Spreader, Consolidation and Modification of Mortgage of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender (the mortgage spread, consolidated and modified thereby, the "Instrument"; capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Instrument), and of the note secured thereby (collectively, the "Existing Note"); and WHEREAS, Borrower is the current obligor under the Existing Note; and WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender have agreed in the manner hereinafter set forth (a) to adjust the interest rate on the Existing Note, (b) to change the monthly payments on the Existing Note, and (c) to modify and restate in their entirety all other terms and provisions of the Existing Note, NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated into the operative provisions of this Note by this reference, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby conclusively acknowledged, Borrower hereby represents and warrants to and covenants and agrees with Lender as follows: A. Outstanding Indebtedness. The aggregate outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Note and secured by the Instrument is One Hundred Twelve Million Dollars ($112,000,000.00), it being understood that no interest under the Existing Note is accrued and unpaid for the period prior to the date hereof, but that interest shall accrue and be paid from and after the date hereof at the rate or rates herein provided. B. Amendment and Restatement of Existing Note. The terms, covenants and provisions of the Existing Note are hereby modified, amended and restated in their entirety so that henceforth such terms, covenants and provisions shall be those set forth herein, and the Existing Note, as so modified, amended and restated, are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects by Borrower. This Note does not create any new or additional indebtedness but evidences the same indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Note and secured by the Instrument. C. Borrower's Promise to Pay. FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender at its offices set forth above the principal sum of One Hundred Twelve Million and No/100 U.S. Dollars ($112,000,000.00), with interest on the unpaid balance ("Balance") at the rate of eight and thirty-five one hundredths percent (8.35%) per annum ("Note Rate") from the date hereof ("Funding Date") until Maturity (defined below. 1. Regular Payments. Principal and interest shall be payable as follows: (a) Interest from the Funding Date through January 31, 2000 shall be due and payable on the Funding Date. (b) Interest only shall be paid in arrears in monthly installments of Seven Hundred Seventy Nine Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($779,333.33) each, commencing on March 1, 2000 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each succeeding month to and including January 31, 2002. Each payment due date is referred to as a "Due Date". (c) The entire unpaid Obligations (as defined in the Instrument) shall be due and payable on January 31, 2002 ("Maturity Date"). "Maturity" shall mean the Maturity Date or earlier date that the Obligations may be due and payable by acceleration by Lender as provided in the Documents. (d) Interest on the Balance for any full month shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each. For any partial month, interest due under this Note shall be computed hereunder with respect to each day during such period by multiplying the Balance at the close of business on each day (or on the most recent day that Lender was open for business) by a daily interest factor calculated by dividing the Note Rate by 360. Interest so computed shall accrue for each and every day during any partial month on which there is a Balance due hereunder and including the day on which funds are repaid. 2. Late Payment and Default Interest. (a) Late Charge. If any payment due under the Documents is not fully paid by its Due Date, a late charge of $500.00 per day (the "Daily Charge") shall be assessed for each day that elapses until payment in full is made (including the date payment is made); provided, however, that if any such payments, together with all accrued Daily Charges, are not fully paid by the fifteenth day following their Due Date, a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of such payments (the "Late Charge") shall be assessed and be immediately due and payable. The Late Charge shall be payable in lieu of Daily Charges that shall have accrued. The Late Charge may be assessed only once on each overdue payment. These charges shall be paid to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment(s) and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such funds. The Daily Charge and Late Charge shall be secured by the Documents. The imposition of the Daily Charge, Late Charge, and/or requirement that interest be paid at the Default Rate (defined below) shall not be construed in any way to (i) excuse Borrower from its obligation to make each payment under this Note promptly when due or (ii) preclude Lender from exercising any rights or remedies available under the Documents upon an Event of Default. (b) Acceleration. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may declare the Balance, unpaid accrued interest, and all other Obligations immediately due and payable in full. (c) Default Rate. Upon an Event of Default or at Maturity, whether by acceleration (due to a voluntary or involuntary default) or otherwise, the entire Obligations (excluding accrued but unpaid interest if prohibited by law) shall bear interest at the Default Rate. The "Default Rate" shall be the lesser of (i) the Maximum Rate (defined below) or (ii) the greater of (A) the Note Rate plus five percent (5%) or (B) five percent (5%) plus the prime rate (for corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks) published in the Wall Street Journal on the first Business Day (defined below) of the month in which the Event of Default or Maturity occurs or continues. The term "Business Day" shall mean a day on which commercial banks or other institutional lenders are not authorized or required by Laws to close in the State of New York or in the State of New Jersey. 3. Application of Payments. Before an Event of Default, all payments received under this Note shall be applied in the following order: (a) to unpaid Daily Charges, Late Charges and costs of collection; (b) to interest on the Balance; and (c) then to the Balance. After an Event of Default, all payments shall be applied in any order determined by Lender in its sole discretion. 4. Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid, in whole or in part at any time upon payment of all accrued interest and other Obligations due under the Documents. No prepayment premium or penalty will be assessed. 5. No Usury. Under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount paid or to be paid as interest under this Note exceed the highest lawful rate permitted under applicable usury law ("Maximum Rate"). If under any circumstances the aggregate amounts paid on this Note shall include interest payments which would exceed the Maximum Rate, Borrower stipulates that payment and collection of interest in excess of the Maximum Rate ("Excess Amount") shall be deemed the result of a mistake by both Borrower and Lender and Lender shall promptly credit the Excess Amount against the Balance or refund to Borrower any portion of the Excess Amount that cannot be so credited. 6. Security and Documents Incorporated. This Note is the Note referred to and secured by the Instrument and is secured by the Property. Borrower shall observe and perform all of the terms and conditions in the Documents. The Documents are incorporated into this Note as if fully set forth in this Note. 7. Treatment of Payments. All payments under this Note shall be made, without offset or deduction, (a) in lawful money of the United States of America at the office of Lender or at the place (and in the manner) Lender may specify by written notice to Borrower, (b) in immediately available federal funds, and (c) if received by Lender prior to 2:00 p.m. local time at such place, shall be credited on that day or else, at Lender's option, shall be credited on the next Business Day. Initially (unless waived by Lender), and until Lender shall direct Borrower otherwise, Borrower shall make all payments due under this Note in the manner set forth in Section 3.13 of the Instrument. If any Due Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the payment shall be deemed to have fallen on the next succeeding Business Day. 8. Limited Recourse Liability. Except to the extent set forth in Paragraph 8 and Paragraph 9 of this Note, neither the Borrower nor any members of Borrower (singularly or collectively, the "Exculpated Parties") shall have any personal liability for the Obligations. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Lender may bring a foreclosure action or other appropriate action to enforce the Documents or realize upon and protect the Property (including, without limitation, naming the Exculpated Parties in the actions) and in addition THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR: (a) any indemnity or similar instrument furnished in connection with the Loan; (b) any unpaid assessments and taxes with respect to the Property for the one year period prior to an Event of Default and thereafter, provided that income from the Property had been sufficient to pay the same; (c) any security deposits of Tenants not previously applied as permitted by the terms of the applicable Lease and (i) not turned over to Lender (or its designee) upon foreclosure, sale (pursuant to power of sale), or conveyance in lieu thereof in connection with a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, or (ii) not turned over to a receiver or trustee for the Property after appointment; (d) any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards neither turned over to Lender (or its designee) nor used in compliance with Sections 3.07 and 3.08, as applicable, of the Instrument; (e) waste of any material or significant portion of the Property that has not been expressly consented to by all members of Borrower and/or expressly consented to by Lender in writing; (f) any rents or other income from the Property received by any of the Exculpated Parties (other than Lender or any Affiliate of Lender who may be an Exculpated Party) after the occurrence of an event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under the Documents not otherwise applied to the Obligations evidenced by this Note, or current (not deferred) operating expenses of the Property; or (ii) is paid as expenses to a Person related to or affiliated with any of the Exculpated Parties (except payments made to Lender under the Loan Documents) unless the payments are expressly permitted in the Documents; and (g) all reasonable legal fees, including the allocated costs of Lender's staff attorneys, and other expenses incurred by Lender in enforcing the Documents if Borrower contests, delays, or otherwise hinders or opposes (including the filing of a bankruptcy or equivalent action or proceeding) any of Lender's enforcement actions. 9. Full Recourse Liability. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 8 of this Note, the EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY for all of the Obligations if: (a) there shall be any breach or violation of Article V of the Instrument; or (b) there shall be any fraud or material misrepresentation by any of the Exculpated Parties (other than Lender or any Affiliate of Lender who may be an Exculpated Party) in connection with the Property, the Documents, or any other aspect of the Loan; or (c) the Property or any part thereof (other than a Lease of a Tenant who is not an Affiliate of any Exculpated Party) shall become an asset in (i) a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or (ii) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding that is not dismissed within ninety (90) days of filing; provided, however, that this Paragraph 9(c) shall not apply if an involuntary bankruptcy is filed by Lender in its capacity as Lender only. 10. Construction of Provisions. The following rules of construction shall apply for all purposes of this Note unless the context otherwise requires: (a) all references to numbered Articles or Paragraphs or to lettered Exhibits are references to the Articles and Paragraphs hereof and the Exhibits annexed to this Note and such Exhibits are incorporated into this Note as if fully set forth in the body of the Note; (b) all captions are used for convenience and reference only and in no way define, limit, or in any way affect this Note; (c) words of masculine, feminine, or neuter gender shall mean and include the correlative words of the other genders, and words importing the singular number shall mean and include the plural number, and vice versa; (d) no inference in favor of or against any party shall be drawn from the fact that such party has drafted any portion of. this Note; (e) all obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be performed and satisfied by or on behalf of Borrower at Borrower's sole expense; (f) the terms "include," "including," and similar terms shall be construed as if followed by the phrase "without being limited to"; (g) the terms "Property", "Land", "Improvements", and "Personal Property" shall be construed as if followed by the phrase "or any part thereof"; (h) the term "Obligations" shall be construed as if followed by the phrase "or any other sums secured hereby, or any part thereof"; (i) the term "Person" shall include natural persons, firms, partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies, governmental authorities or agencies, and any other public or private legal entities; (j) the term "provisions," when used with respect hereto or to any other document or instrument, shall be construed as if preceded by the phrase "terms, covenants, agreements, requirements, and/or conditions"; (k) the term "Lease" shall mean "tenancy, subtenancy, lease, sublease, or rental agreement," the term "lessor" shall mean "landlord, sublandlord, lessor, and sublessor," and the term "Tenants" or "lessee" shall mean "tenant, subtenant, lessee, and sublessee"; (l) the term "owned" shall mean "now owned or later acquired"; (m) the terms "any" and "all" shall mean "any or all"; and (n) the term "on demand" or "upon demand" shall mean "within five (5) Business Days after written notice". 11.

W I T N E S S E T H: WHEREAS, Lender is the owner and holder of a certain mortgage spread, consolidated and modified by that certain Agreement of Spreader, Consolidation and Modification of Mortgage of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender (the mortgage spread, consolidated and modified thereby, the "Instrument"; capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Instrument), and of the note secured thereby (collectively, the "Existing Note"); and WHEREAS, Borrower is the current obligor under the Existing Note; and WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender have agreed in the manner hereinafter set forth (a) to adjust the interest rate on the Existing Note, (b) to change the monthly payments on the Existing Note, and (c) to modify and restate in their entirety all other terms and provisions of the Existing Note, NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated into the operative provisions of this Note by this reference, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby conclusively acknowledged, Borrower hereby represents and warrants to and covenants and agrees with Lender as follows: A. Outstanding Indebtedness. The aggregate outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Note and secured by the Instrument is One Hundred Twelve Million Dollars ($112,000,000.00), it being understood that no interest under the Existing Note is accrued and unpaid for the period prior to the date hereof, but that interest shall accrue and be paid from and after the date hereof at the rate or rates herein provided. B. Amendment and Restatement of Existing Note. The terms, covenants and provisions of the Existing Note are hereby modified, amended and restated in their entirety so that henceforth such terms, covenants and provisions shall be those set forth herein, and the Existing Note, as so modified, amended and restated, are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects by Borrower. This Note does not create any new or additional indebtedness but evidences the same indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Note and secured by the Instrument. C. Borrower's Promise to Pay. FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender at its offices set forth above the principal sum of One Hundred Twelve Million and No/100 U.S. Dollars ($112,000,000.00), with interest on the unpaid balance ("Balance") at the rate of eight and thirty-five one hundredths percent (8.35%) per annum ("Note Rate") from the date hereof ("Funding Date") until Maturity (defined below. 1. Regular Payments. Principal and interest shall be payable as follows: (a) Interest from the Funding Date through February 29, 2000 shall be due and payable on the Funding Date. (b) Interest only shall be paid in arrears in monthly installments of Seven Hundred Seventy Nine Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($779,333.33) each, commencing on March 1, 2000 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each succeeding month to and including February 28, 2002. Each payment due date is referred to as a "Due Date". (c) The entire unpaid Obligations (as defined in the Instrument) shall be due and payable on January 31, 2002 ("Maturity Date"). "Maturity" shall mean the Maturity Date or earlier date that the Obligations may be due and payable by acceleration by Lender as provided in the Documents. (d) Interest on the Balance for any full month shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each. For any partial month, interest due under this Note shall be computed hereunder with respect to each day during such period by multiplying the Balance at the close of business on each day (or on the most recent day that Lender was open for business) by a daily interest factor calculated by dividing the Note Rate by 360. Interest so computed shall accrue for each and every day during any partial month on which there is a Balance due hereunder and including the day on which funds are repaid. 2. Late Payment and Default Interest. --------------------------------- (a) Late Charge. If any payment due under the Documents is not fully paid by its Due Date, a late charge of $500.00 per day (the "Daily Charge") shall be assessed for each day that elapses until payment in full is made (including the date payment is made); provided, however, that if any such payments, together with all accrued Daily Charges, are not fully paid by the fifteenth day following their Due Date, a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of such payments (the "Late Charge") shall be assessed and be immediately due and payable. The Late Charge shall be payable in lieu of Daily Charges that shall have accrued. The Late Charge may be assessed only once on each overdue payment. These charges shall be paid to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment(s) and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such funds. The Daily Charge and Late Charge shall be secured by the Documents. The imposition of the Daily Charge, Late Charge, and/or requirement that interest be paid at the Default Rate (defined below) shall not be construed in any way to (i) excuse Borrower from its obligation to make each payment under this Note promptly when due or (ii) preclude Lender from exercising any rights or remedies available under the Documents upon an Event of Default. (b) Acceleration. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may declare the Balance, unpaid accrued interest, and all other Obligations immediately due and payable in full. (c) Default Rate. Upon an Event of Default or at Maturity, whether by acceleration (due to a voluntary or involuntary default) or otherwise, the entire Obligations (excluding accrued but unpaid interest if prohibited by law) shall bear interest at the Default Rate. The "Default Rate" shall be the lesser of (i) the Maximum Rate (defined below) or (ii) the greater of (A) the Note Rate plus five percent (5%) or (B) five percent (5%) plus the prime rate (for corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks) published in the Wall Street Journal on the first Business Day (defined below) of the month in which the Event of Default or Maturity occurs or continues. The term "Business Day" shall mean a day on which commercial banks or other institutional lenders are not authorized or required by Laws to close in the State of New York or in the State of New Jersey. 3. Application of Payments. Before an Event of Default, all payments received under this Note shall be applied in the following order: (a) to unpaid Daily Charges, Late Charges and costs of collection; (b) to interest on the Balance; and (c) then to the Balance. After an Event of Default, all payments shall be applied in any order determined by Lender in its sole discretion. 4. Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid, in whole or in part at any time upon payment of all accrued interest and other Obligations due under the Documents. No prepayment premium or penalty will be assessed. 5. No Usury. Under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount paid or to be paid as interest under this Note exceed the highest lawful rate permitted under applicable usury law ("Maximum Rate"). If under any circumstances the aggregate amounts paid on this Note shall include interest payments which would exceed the Maximum Rate, Borrower stipulates that payment and collection of interest in excess of the Maximum Rate ("Excess Amount") shall be deemed the result of a mistake by both Borrower and Lender and Lender shall promptly credit the Excess Amount against the Balance or refund to Borrower any portion of the Excess Amount that cannot be so credited. 6. Security and Documents Incorporated. This Note is the Note referred to and secured by the Instrument and is secured by the Property. Borrower shall observe and perform all of the terms and conditions in the Documents. The Documents are incorporated into this Note as if fully set forth in this Note. 7. Treatment of Payments. All payments under this Note shall be made, without offset or deduction, (a) in lawful money of the United States of America at the office of Lender or at the place (and in the manner) Lender may specify by written notice to Borrower, (b) in immediately available federal funds, and (c) if received by Lender prior to 2:00 p.m. local time at such place, shall be credited on that day or else, at Lender's option, shall be credited on the next Business Day. Initially (unless waived by Lender), and until Lender shall direct Borrower otherwise, Borrower shall make all payments due under this Note in the manner set forth in Section 3.13 of the Instrument. If any Due Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the payment shall be deemed to have fallen on the next succeeding Business Day. 8. Limited Recourse Liability. Except to the extent set forth in Paragraph 8 and Paragraph 9 of this Note, neither the Borrower nor any members of Borrower (singularly or collectively, the "Exculpated Parties") shall have any personal liability for the Obligations. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Lender may bring a foreclosure action or other appropriate action to enforce the Documents or realize upon and protect the Property (including, without limitation, naming the Exculpated Parties in the actions) and in addition THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR: (a) any indemnity or similar instrument furnished in connection with the Loan; (b) any unpaid assessments and taxes with respect to the Property for the one year period prior to an Event of Default and thereafter, provided that income from the Property had been sufficient to pay the same; (c) any security deposits of Tenants not previously applied as permitted by the terms of the applicable Lease and (i) not turned over to Lender (or its designee) upon foreclosure, sale (pursuant to power of sale), or conveyance in lieu thereof in connection with a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, or (ii) not turned over to a receiver or trustee for the Property after appointment; (d) any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards neither turned over to Lender (or its designee) nor used in compliance with Sections 3.07 and 3.08, as applicable, of the Instrument; (e) waste of any material or significant portion of the Property that has not been expressly consented to by all members of Borrower and/or expressly consented to by Lender in writing; (f) any rents or other income from the Property received by any of the Exculpated Parties (other than Lender or any Affiliate of Lender who may be an Exculpated Party) after the occurrence of an event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under the Documents not otherwise applied to the Obligations evidenced by this Note, or current (not deferred) operating expenses of the Property; or (ii) is paid as expenses to a Person related to or affiliated with any of the Exculpated Parties (except payments made to Lender under the Loan Documents) unless the payments are expressly permitted in the Documents; and (g) all reasonable legal fees, including the allocated costs of Lender's staff attorneys, and other expenses incurred by Lender in enforcing the Documents if Borrower contests, delays, or otherwise hinders or opposes (including the filing of a bankruptcy or equivalent action or proceeding) any of Lender's enforcement actions. 9. Full Recourse Liability. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 8 of this Note, the EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY for all of the Obligations if: (a) there shall be any breach or violation of Article V of the Instrument; or (b) there shall be any fraud or material misrepresentation by any of the Exculpated Parties (other than Lender or any Affiliate of Lender who may be an Exculpated Party) in connection with the Property, the Documents, or any other aspect of the Loan; or (c) the Property or any part thereof (other than a Lease of a Tenant who is not an Affiliate of any Exculpated Party) shall become an asset in (i) a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or (ii) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding that is not dismissed within ninety (90) days of filing; provided, however, that this Paragraph 9(c) shall not apply if an involuntary bankruptcy is filed by Lender in its capacity as Lender only. 10.
