CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

This Contribution Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 14, 2024 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Medalist Diversified Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and CWS BET Seattle L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Contributor”). Definitions for this Agreement are set forth in Section 8.

RECITALS

1.The Contributor currently owns the real property located at 2545 Scottsville Road, Bowling Green, KY 42104 (the “Property”), as the Property is more fully described in Exhibit A, which is commonly known as Buffalo Wild Wings.

2.The Operating Partnership desires to acquire the Property and the Contributed Assets whereby the Operating Partnership will acquire a direct fee simple interest and ownership in the Property.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual undertakings set forth below, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.Contribution; Total Consideration; Inspection and Title.

1.1 Contribution of Property. At the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Contributor shall contribute, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to the Operating Partnership, absolutely and unconditionally, and free and clear of all Liens (other than the Permitted Liens), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Property. The contribution of the Property shall be evidenced by the Deed. The parties shall take such additional actions and execute such additional documents as may be required by the Contributor’s organizational documents and the Partnership Agreement, or as reasonably requested by the Operating Partnership in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereby.

1.2 Contribution of Assets. At the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Contributor shall contribute, transfer, assign convey and deliver to the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership shall acquire and accept, all of the Contributor’s right, title and interest in and to (i) (A) the assets listed on Schedule 1.2, (B) all Fixtures and Personal Property related to the Property and (C) all Intangible Personal Property (to the extent transferable) now or hereafter used in connection with the operation, ownership, maintenance, management or occupancy of the Property (collectively, the “Contributed Assets”), and (ii) (A) those certain agreements listed on Schedule 1.2, which reflect the agreements and arrangements related to the Property to which Contributor (or its affiliates or predecessors) is a party and are necessary or appropriate for the operation and management of the Property, and (B) the Service Contracts (collectively, the “Assumed Agreements”), and in each case, free and clear of any Liens, other than the Permitted Liens listed on Schedule 1.2. The contribution of the Contributed Assets and the Assumed Agreements and the assumption of all obligations thereunder shall be evidenced by a Contribution and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit B.

1.3 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that all assets and properties of the Contributor set forth on Schedule 1.3 shall be deemed “Excluded Assets” and not contributed, transferred, assigned, conveyed or delivered to the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, and the Operating Partnership shall not have any rights or obligations with respect thereto. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Contributor, at the Contributor’s expense, shall remove the Excluded Assets from the Property as soon as possible after the Closing but in no event later than 30 days after the Closing Date. If the Contributor fails to comply with the foregoing provisions, the Operating Partnership may dispose of such items at the Contributor’s expense or make such other arrangements as the Operating Partnership may determine appropriate.

1.4Assumed Liabilities. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, the Operating Partnership shall assume and thereafter pay, perform or discharge in accordance with their terms all of the liabilities and obligations of the Contributor listed on Schedule 1.4 (the “Assumed Liabilities”).

1.5 Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the Operating Partnership shall not assume or agree to pay, perform or otherwise discharge any liabilities, obligations or other expenses of the Contributor (or acquire the Property subject thereto) other than the Assumed Liabilities.

1.6Intentionally Omitted

1.7 Consideration and Exchange of Total Consideration.

1.7.1In exchange for the Property, the Contributed Assets, the Assumed Agreements and the Assumed Liabilities, the Operating Partnership shall pay and deliver to the Contributor the Total Consideration set forth on Exhibit C, as may be adjusted pursuant to Sections 1.11 and 5.1.4, which shall be payable as set forth on Exhibit C. For purposes of any adjustment to the Total Consideration pursuant to Sections 1.11 and 5.1.4, the Total Consideration shall be adjusted by reducing the number of Common Units issuable at Closing equal to the dollar value of such adjustment divided by $12.50.

1.7.2The issuance of the Common Units and the Preferred Units to the Contributor shall be evidenced by an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Partnership Agreement as determined by the Operating Partnership. The parties shall take such additional actions and execute such additional documents as may be required by such party’s organizational documents and the Partnership Agreement in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereby.

1.7.3Contributor understands that Contributor may not redeem the Total Consideration for shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Operating Partnership’s general partner, unless such redemption is approved by a majority of the votes cast on the matter at a meeting of stockholders of the Operating Partnership’s general partner or by written consent of the stockholders of the Operating Partnership’s general partner in lieu of a special meeting to the extent permitted by applicable federal and state law.

1.8 Treatment as Contribution. The transfer, assignment and exchange effectuated pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a “capital contribution” to the Operating Partnership pursuant to Section 4 of the Partnership Agreement and is intended to be governed by Section 721(a) of the Code, and the Contributor hereby consents to such treatment.

1.9 Allocation of Total Consideration. The Total Consideration shall be allocated as set forth in Schedule 1.9. The Operating Partnership and the Contributor agree to (i) be bound by the allocation, (ii) act in accordance with the allocation in the preparation of financial statements and filing of all tax returns and in the course of any tax audit, tax review or tax litigation relating thereto and (iii) take no position and cause their affiliates that they control to take no position inconsistent with the allocation for income tax purposes.

1.10 Term of Agreement. If the Closing does not occur by the Closing Date, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and shall be of no further force and effect and neither the Operating Partnership nor the Contributor shall have any further obligations hereunder except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. The Closing Date may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties to this Agreement.

1.11 Risk of Loss. The risk of loss relating to the Property prior to Closing shall be borne by the Contributor. If, prior to the Closing, the Property is partially or totally destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, or is taken by eminent domain or through condemnation proceedings, then the Operating Partnership may, at its option, determine not to acquire the Property but only if the cost of repairing such destruction or damage or the value of the portion of the Property so taken is, in the reasonable judgment of the Operating Partnership, in excess of the Maximum Per Property Total Consideration Adjustment. After the occurrence of any such total or partial casualty or condemnation affecting the Property, the Operating Partnership may, at its option, (i) elect to acquire the Property (with an adjustment to the Total Consideration as set forth in this Section 1.11) within 30 days after the Operating Partnership is notified of any such casualty or condemnation, (ii) oversee the repairs and restoration being made by the Contributor at the Property and (iii) direct the Contributor to pay or cause to be paid to the Operating Partnership at or following the Closing any sums collected by the Contributor, if any, under any insurance policies or award proceeds relating to such casualty or condemnation (to the extent that the Contributor has not applied such sums or proceeds to the restoration of the Property or otherwise to address the impacts of such casualty or condemnation) and otherwise assign to the Operating Partnership at or following the Closing all rights of the Contributor to collect such sums as may then be uncollected, and/or to the extent available to the Contributor, adjust or settle any insurance claim or condemnation proceeding, which the Contributor has not adjusted or settled prior to the Closing. If the Operating Partnership elects to acquire the Property following any such casualty or condemnation, the Total Consideration shall be reduced by the amount of (i) any deductibles under the applicable insurance policies or award with respect to the Property and (ii) any uninsured casualty or loss with respect to the Property, provided that any such reduction shall not exceed an amount which, when aggregated with any other adjustments with respect to the Property pursuant to this Section 1.11 and/or Section 5.1.4, would exceed $250,000 (the “Maximum Per Property Total Consideration Adjustment”). Insurance on the transferred Property shall be cancelled as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, and thereafter the Operating Partnership shall be solely responsible for all risk of loss relating to the Property.

1.12Escrow. Escrow shall be opened by the Operating Partnership with Fidelity National Title (the “Closing Agent”) upon execution of this Agreement by both parties. The Operating Partnership will deposit an earnest money deposit of $15,000 (the “Earnest Money”), which shall be applied to the cash payable by the Operating Partnership at Closing. At Closing, the Earnest Money shall be applied to any Closing costs and expenses payable by the Operating Partnership, with the remaining balance, if any, to be returned to the Operating Partnership at Closing. A copy of this fully-executed Agreement will be delivered to the Closing Agent by the Operating Partnership and will serve as escrow instructions together with any additional instructions required by the Contributor and/or the Operating Partnership or their respective counsels. The Contributor and the Operating Partnership agree to cooperate with the Closing Agent and sign any additional instructions reasonably required by the Closing Agent to close escrow. If there is any conflict between any other instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control. In the event of the Operating Partnership’s default under this Agreement after expiration of the Due Diligence Period and before the Closing, the Contributor shall be entitled to retain 50% of the Earnest Money as damages.

1.13Title Insurance.

1.13.1Title and Survey. The Operating Partnership shall, at its sole expense, obtain a Preliminary Title Report from Fidelity National Title (the “Title Company”) dated on or after the Effective Date, together with copies of all documents described and referred to in Schedule B of the Preliminary Title Report (the “Title Documents”). The Contributor has delivered a copy of the most recent survey of the Property in the Contributor’s possession (the “Survey”). The Operating Partnership may order an updated ALTA survey at its sole cost and expense (the “Updated Survey”).

1.13.2 Title Review. The Operating Partnership shall have until 11:59 pm ET on the later of (i) five (5) days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period or (ii) seven (7) days after the

Operating Partnership’s receipt of the latest of the Survey, the Updated Survey, if any, the Preliminary Title Report and the Title Documents to review and examine title and notify the Contributor in writing of any objections and requests for specific endorsements thereto (the “Objections”). If any Objections are so made, the Contributor shall, at its option within seven (7) days after receipt of the Operating Partnership’s Objections (the “Contributor’s Cure Period”), cure and remove such Objections or notify the Operating Partnership that the Contributor is unwilling or unable to cure any such Objections. If the Contributor is unwilling or unable to cure, remove, or obtain insurable title over the Operating Partnership’s Objections or if no response is received from the Contributor within such seven (7)-day period, the Operating Partnership shall, at its sole option by the later of (x) the expiration of the Due Diligence Period or (y) five (5) days after the expiration of the Contributor’s Cure Period, by notice to the Contributor, (a) waive its Objections and proceed to Closing, (b) terminate this Agreement by notice to the Contributor and receive a full return of the Earnest Money or (c) cure the defect at Contributor’s expense with the cost to be credited at Closing.

1.14Due Diligence Period.

1.14.1Within three (3) business days after the Effective Date, the Contributor shall (i) deliver to the Operating Partnership due diligence documents as requested by the Operating Partnership (the “Due Diligence Documents”). The Operating Partnership shall have until 11:59 pm ET on the date which is 45 days following the later of (i) the Effective Date or (ii) the date on which the Operating Partnership receives all Due Diligence Documents (the “Due Diligence Period”) to review the Due Diligence Documents. During the Due Diligence Period, the Operating Partnership may terminate this Agreement for any reason or no reason by delivering a termination notice to the Contributor and the Closing Agent on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned in full to the Operating Partnership and neither party shall have any further duties or obligations to the other hereunder (except for any obligation expressly surviving the termination of this Agreement). If the Operating Partnership does not notify the Contributor and the Closing Agent in writing, signed only by Brent Winn, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period that the Operating Partnership is satisfied with the Due Diligence Period, the Operating Partnership will be deemed to have exercised its right of termination and this Agreement will terminate and the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned in full to the Operating Partnership and neither party shall have any further duties or obligations hereunder (except for any obligation expressly surviving the termination of this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, any new matters arise which were not disclosed in the Due Diligence Documents and such matters materially or adversely affect the Property or render incomplete or inaccurate any of the Due Diligence Documents or if any new matters appear on updates to the Preliminary Title Report (an “Adverse Change”), the Operating Partnership shall have five (5) business days from notice of the Adverse Change (the “Adverse Change Review Period”) to review and to accept or reject the Adverse Change. The Operating Partnership may terminate this Agreement during the Adverse Change Review Period if any Adverse Change is not acceptable to the Operating Partnership. If this Agreement is so terminated, the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned in full to the Operating Partnership and neither party shall have any further duties or obligations to the other hereunder (except for any obligation expressly surviving the termination of this Agreement).

1.14.2The Contributor will permit the Operating Partnership and its representatives to make a full business, financial, accounting, and legal review of the Property and the Contributor’s tax returns to the extent the Operating Partnership deems necessary (the “Due Diligence Review”), including, without limitation, the right to monitor the operations of the Property from and after the Effective Date. The Contributor will take all reasonable steps necessary to cooperate with the Operating Partnership in undertaking the Due Diligence Review. Except as set forth in this Agreement or as agreed by the Contributor and the Operating Partnership, the Due Diligence Review by the Operating Partnership or its representatives will not affect the representations and warranties of the Contributor or the Operating

Partnership’s reliance on them. During the Due Diligence Period, the Contributor’s primary point of contact will be Erin Burke. The Contributor’s obligation to provide information to the Operating Partnership will continue through the Closing even if the Due Diligence Period has expired.

1.14.3The Contributor will permit the Operating Partnership and its representatives to make a full business, financial, accounting, and legal review of the Property and the Contributor’s tax returns to the extent the Operating Partnership deems necessary (the “Due Diligence Review”), including, without limitation, the right to monitor the operations of the Property from and after the Effective Date. The Contributor will take all reasonable steps necessary to cooperate with the Operating Partnership in undertaking the Due Diligence Review. Except as set forth in this Agreement or as agreed by the Contributor and the Operating Partnership, the Due Diligence Review by the Operating Partnership or its representatives will not affect the representations and warranties of the Contributor or the Operating Partnership’s reliance on them. During the Due Diligence Period, the Contributor’s primary point of contact will be Jim Christensen. The Contributor’s obligation to provide information to the Operating Partnership will continue through the Closing even if the Due Diligence Period has expired. Contributor understands that Operating Partnership’s general partner is a public company REIT subject to the rules of and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to, the property audit requirements embodied in Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X (“Rule 3-14 Audit”). As such, Contributor agrees that prior to Closing it will provide all documents and information reasonably requested by the Operating Partnership in order for the Operating Partnership to conduct a Rule 3-14 Audit. Contributor further agrees that following Closing it will cooperate with any reasonable request by the Operating Partnership for additional information needed for the Rule 3-14 Audit.

This Agreement and each agreement, document and instrument executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement constitutes, or when executed and delivered will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Operating Partnership, each enforceable against the Operating Partnership in accordance with its terms, as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy or the application of equitable principles.

3.1.5Non-Contravention. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Contributor made hereunder, none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, any agreement contemplated hereby and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will (i) result in a default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) or give to any third party any right of termination, cancellation, amendment or acceleration under, or result in any loss of any material benefit, pursuant to any material agreement, document or instrument to which the Operating Partnership or any of its properties or assets may be bound, or (ii) violate or conflict with any judgment, order, decree or law applicable to the Operating Partnership or any of its properties or assets; in any case, unless any such default, violation or conflict would not have a material adverse effect on the Operating Partnership.

3.2.6Non-Foreign Status. The Contributor is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and is not a “foreign person” (within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Code), and is, therefore, not subject to the provisions of the Code relating to the withholding of sales proceeds to foreign persons, and is not subject to any state withholding requirements. The Contributor will provide affidavits at the Closing to this effect as provided for in this Section 3.2.6.

3.2.7Withholding. The Contributor shall execute at Closing such certificates or affidavits reasonably necessary to document the inapplicability of any United States federal or state withholding provisions, including, without limitation, those referred to in Section 3.2.6. If the Contributor fails to provide such certificates or affidavits, the Operating Partnership may withhold a portion of any payments otherwise to be made to the Contributor as required by the Code or applicable state law.

3.2.8Investment Purposes. The Contributor acknowledges its understanding that the offering and issuance of the Common Units and the Preferred Units to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and that the Operating Partnership’s reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of the Contributor contained herein and in the Subscription Agreement. In furtherance thereof, the Contributor represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a)Investment. The Contributor is acquiring the Common Units and Preferred Units solely for its own account for investment purposes only and not as a nominee or agent for any other Person and not with a view to the distribution, transfer, assignment or resale of the Common Units. The Contributor agrees and acknowledges that it will not, directly or indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (a “Transfer”) any of the Common Units or the Preferred Units, except as provided in the Partnership Agreement, unless (i) the Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and qualification or other compliance under applicable blue sky or state securities laws, or (ii) counsel for the Contributor (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Operating Partnership) shall have furnished the Operating Partnership with an opinion, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Operating Partnership, to the effect that no such registration is required because of the availability of an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and qualification or other compliance under applicable blue sky or state securities laws, and (iii) the Transfer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. A “Transfer” shall not include any redemption of the Common Units or Preferred Units or exchange of the Common Units for REIT Shares pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Transfer shall be made unless it is permitted under the Partnership Agreement.

(b)Knowledge. The Contributor is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in business and financial matters and fully understands the limitations on transfer imposed by the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws and as described in this Agreement. The Contributor is able to bear the economic risk of holding the Common Units and the Preferred Units for an indefinite period and is able to afford the complete loss of its investment in the Common Units and the Preferred Units. The Contributor has received and reviewed all information and documents about or pertaining to the Company, the Operating Partnership and their business, properties and prospects and the issuance of the Common Units and the Preferred Units as the Contributor deems necessary or desirable to evaluate the merits and risks related to its investment in the Common Units and Preferred Units. The Contributor has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers, from the Operating Partnership, and to obtain any additional information or documents as the Contributor deems necessary, including any information requested to verify any information furnished to the Contributor.

(c)Holding Period. The Contributor acknowledges that it has been advised that (i) the Common Units and the Preferred Units must be held for 12 months and may have to be held indefinitely thereafter, and the Contributor must continue to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Common Units and the Preferred Units (and any Common Stock that might be exchanged therefor), unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available (it being understood that the Operating Partnership has no intention of registering the Common Units or the Preferred Units), and (ii) a notation shall be made in the appropriate records of the Operating Partnership indicating that the Common Units and Preferred Units (and any Common Stock that might be exchanged therefor) are subject to restrictions on transfer.

(d)Accredited Investor. The Contributor is an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act). The Contributor has previously provided the Operating Partnership with a duly executed Subscription Agreement. No event or circumstance has occurred since delivery of such questionnaire to make the statements contained therein false or misleading.

3.2.9Brokers. Neither the Contributor nor any of the Contributor’s officers, directors or employees has employed or made any agreement with any broker, finder or similar agent or any Person or firm that will result in the obligation of the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates to pay any finder’s fee, brokerage fees or commissions or similar payment in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Contributor shall indemnify, defend and hold the Operating Partnership and its affiliates harmless from and against any broker’s commission or finder’s fee and any claims asserted by any other Person claiming a broker’s commission or finder’s fee concerning this Agreement or the purchase and sale of the Property. The terms and conditions of this Section 3.2.9 shall survive the Closing.

3.2.10Solvency. The Contributor will be solvent immediately following the transfer of the Property and the Contributed Assets to the Operating Partnership.

3.2.11Taxes. No tax Lien or other charge exists or will exist upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the Property, except such tax Liens for which the tax is not delinquent and has been properly reserved for payment by the Contributor. The copies of the real property tax bills for the Property for the current tax year which have been furnished or made available to the Operating Partnership are true and correct copies of all tax bills for the current tax year received by the Contributor or its agents for the Property. The Contributor has timely and properly filed all Tax Returns relating to Other Taxes required to be filed by it and has timely paid all Other Taxes required to be paid by it. The Contributor has not requested any extension of time or agreed to any extension of the applicable statute of limitations within which to file any pending Tax Return relating to Other Taxes. None of the Tax Returns relating to Other Taxes filed by the Contributor is the subject of a pending or ongoing audit, and no federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority has asserted any tax deficiency or other assessment against the Property.

3.2.12Litigation; Insolvency Proceedings. There is no Action, litigation, claim or other proceeding, either judicial or administrative (including, without limitation, any governmental action or proceeding), pending or, to the Contributor’s Knowledge, threatened in the last 12 months, against the Property, the Contributor or the Contributed Assets or that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Contributor’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The Contributor is not bound by any outstanding order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, Governmental Entity or arbitration against or affecting all or any portion of the Property or the Contributed Assets, which in any such case, would impair the Contributor’s ability to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement or which would otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect. No bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar action or proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, is pending or, to the Contributor’s knowledge, has been threatened in writing, against the Contributor or any Property owner.

3.2.13Compliance With Laws. To the Contributor’s Knowledge, the Property has been maintained or operated, and on the Effective Date is, and as of the Closing Date will be, in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, codes, orders and statutes (including, without limitation, those currently relating to fire safety, conservation, parking, Americans with Disabilities Act, zoning and building laws).

3.2.16Real Property.

(a)Neither the Contributor nor any other party to any material agreement affecting the Property has given to the Contributor or, to the Contributor’s Knowledge, received any notice of any uncured default with respect to any material agreement affecting the Property which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Property, and no event has occurred or, to the Contributor’s Knowledge, is threatened, which through the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a default thereunder which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Property or would cause the acceleration of any material obligation of any party thereto or the creation of a Lien upon the Property, except for the Permitted Liens. To the Contributor’s Knowledge, such agreements are valid and binding and in full force and effect, and have not been amended, modified or supplemented since such time as such agreements were made available to the Operating Partnership, except for such amendments, modifications and supplements delivered or made available to the Operating Partnership.

The Contributor has not received any notice from the United States Environmental Protection Agency or any other federal, state, county or municipal entity or agency that regulates Hazardous Materials or public health risks or other environmental matters or any other private party or Person claiming any violation of, or requiring compliance with, any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or demanding payment or contribution for any release or other environmental damage in, on, under or upon the Property. No investigation or litigation with respect to Hazardous Materials located in, on under or upon the Property is pending or, to the Contributor’s Knowledge, has been threatened in the last 12 months by any Governmental Entity or any third party. To the Contributor’s Knowledge, no environmental conditions exist at, on under, upon or affecting the Property or any portion thereof that would reasonably be likely to result in any material claim, liability or obligation under any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permit or any material claim by any third party.

3.2.18Trademarks and Tradenames; Proprietary Rights.

(a)There are no actions or other judicial or administrative proceedings against the Contributor or the Property pending or, to the Contributor’s Knowledge, threatened in the last 12 months that concern any copyrights, copyright application, trademarks, trademark registrations, service marks, service mark registrations, trade names and trade name registrations or any trade secrets being transferred to the Operating Partnership hereunder (the “Proprietary Rights”) and that, if adversely determined, would have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no patents or patent applications relating to the operations of the Property as conducted prior to the Closing.

(b)To the Contributor’s Knowledge, the current use of the Proprietary Rights does not conflict with, infringe upon or violate any copyright, trade secret, trademark or registration of any other Person.

(a)To the Contributor’s Knowledge , there is no material defect in the structural condition of the Property improvements including the roof, the structural elements and the mechanical systems thereon (including, without limitation, all HVAC, plumbing, electrical, elevator, security, utility, sprinkler and safety systems), nor any material damage from casualty or other cause, nor any soil condition of the Property that will not support all of the improvements thereon without the need for unusual or new subsurface excavations, fill, footings, caissons or other installations, except for any such defect, damage or condition that has been corrected or will be corrected in the ordinary course of the business of the Property as disclosed as part of its scheduled annual maintenance and improvement program. There are no outstanding citations issued by any health, building or other Governmental Entity under the Occupational Safety and Health Act and/or under the Americans with Disabilities Act having jurisdiction over the operation of the Property and the Fixtures and Personal Property. To the Contributor’s Knowledge, there have been no alterations to the exteriors of any of the buildings or other improvements on the Property that would render any surveys or plans provided to the Operating Partnership materially inaccurate or otherwise reflect a material deficiency in title to such improvements.

(b)To the Contributor’s Knowledge, the Fixtures and Personal Property are presently operating and have been regularly maintained and will be in the same working condition in all material respects as of the Closing Date and there are no known defects that have not been disclosed to the Operating Partnership.

3.2.20Leases. The Contributor holds a lessor’s interest under all leases, licenses, tenancies, possession agreements and occupancy agreements related to the Property (collectively, the “Leases”). References to “tenants” in this Agreement shall include all tenants, licensees or parties in possession under any Leases. Schedule 1.2 contains a complete and accurate list of all Leases. A true and complete copy of all Leases have been made available to the Operating Partnership. To the Contributor’s Knowledge, all Leases are in full force and effect and no tenant is in default under any Lease. The Contributor, as lessor under the Leases, has not received any notice that it is in default of any of its obligations under the Leases beyond any applicable grace period which has not been cured.

other benefit plans, programs or arrangements, or any employment, termination, severance or other contracts or agreements, and there exists no employee benefit plan for which the Contributor could incur liability under Section 4069 of ERISA in the event such plan has been or were to be terminated.

The Contributor further represents and warrants that it has not relied on the Operating Partnership or its

affiliates, representatives, counsel or other advisors for legal or tax advice regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.Indemnification.

4.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties; Remedy for Breach. All representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 (as qualified by the Disclosure Schedule) or in any Schedule or certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing.

4.2 Indemnification by the Contributor.

4.2.1The Contributor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Operating Partnership and its partners, officers, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates (other than the Contributor) (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of investigation, costs of investigative, judicial or administrative proceedings or appeals therefrom, and costs of attachment or similar bonds (collectively, “Losses”), asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with or as a result of any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Contributor contained in this Agreement from and after the Closing Date.

4.2.2The Contributor shall also indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with or as a result of all fees and expenses of the Contributor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as provided in Section 2.4.

4.2.3With respect to any claim of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 4.2, to the extent available, the Operating Partnership agrees to use diligent good faith efforts to pursue and collect any and all available proceeds under any insurance policy which covers the matter which is the subject of the indemnification prior to seeking indemnification from the Contributor until all proceeds, if any, to which the Operating Partnership or the Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to such insurance policy have been exhausted; provided, however, that the Operating Partnership may make a claim under this Section 4.2 even if an insurance coverage dispute is pending, in which case, if the Indemnified Party later receives insurance proceeds with respect to any Losses paid by the Contributor for the benefit of any Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Contributor in an amount equivalent to such insurance proceeds in excess of any deductible amount pursuant to Section 4.4 up to the amount actually paid by the Contributor to the Indemnified Party in connection with such indemnification (it being understood that all costs and expenses incurred by the Contributor with respect to insurance coverage disputes shall constitute Losses paid by the Contributor for purposes of this Section 4.2.3).

4.3 Notice and Defense of Claims. Subject to Section 4.4, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any liability or claim incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified Party that is subject to indemnification under this Section 4.2, the Indemnified Party shall give notice thereof to the Contributor, including liabilities or claims to be applied against the indemnification deductible established pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof; provided that failure to give notice to the Contributor will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party, unless the Contributor did not learn of such claim and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Contributor of substantial rights and defenses. The Indemnified Party may, at its option, demand indemnity under Section 4.2 as soon as a claim has been threatened by a third party, regardless of whether an actual Loss has been suffered, so long as the Indemnified Party shall in good faith determine that such claim is not frivolous and that the Indemnified Party may be liable for, or otherwise incur, a Loss as a result thereof and shall give notice of such determination to the Contributor. The Indemnified Party shall permit the Contributor, at the Contributor’s option and expense, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel selected by the Contributor and

reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and to settle or otherwise dispose of the same; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may at all times participate in such defense at its expense; and provided further, that the Contributor shall not, in defense of any such claim, except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party in its sole and absolute discretion, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff in question to all Indemnified Parties a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or that does not result only in the payment of money damages which are paid in full by the Contributor. If the Contributor shall fail to undertake such defense within 30 days after such notice, or within such shorter time as may be reasonable under the circumstances or as required by applicable law, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such liability or claim on behalf of and for the account of the Contributor at the Contributor’s sole cost and expense.

4.4 Limitations on Indemnification Under Section 5.2.1. The Contributor shall not be liable under Section 4.2.1 unless and until the total amount recoverable by the Indemnified Parties from the Contributor under Section 4.2.1 exceeds $50,000, in the aggregate (the “Basket”); provided, however, that claims for Losses exceeding the Basket shall be recoverable from the first dollar of Losses. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Losses arising out of a breach of representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.2.6, 3.2.7, and 3.2.9 shall not be subject to the Basket and shall be recoverable from the first dollar of Losses. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the maximum liability of the Contributor in the aggregate under Section 4.2.1 shall not exceed $250,000, provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to claims for Losses arising out of a breach of the covenant contained in Section 5.1.4.

4.5Indemnification by the Operating Partnership. From and after the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the Contributor and its directors, officers, managers, members, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates (the “Indemnified Contributor Parties”) from and against any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Contributor Parties in connection with or as a result of (i) any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Operating Partnership contained in this Agreement, (ii) all fees, costs and expenses of the Operating Partnership in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as provided in Section 2.4, (iii) the failure of the Operating Partnership after the Closing Date to perform any obligation required to be performed pursuant to any contract or obligation assigned to and assumed by the Operating Partnership (including the Assumed Agreements), and (iv) the Assumed Liabilities.

4.6 Matters Excluded from Operating Partnership’s Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Operating Partnership shall have no obligation under this Agreement to indemnify or hold harmless the Contributor from any Losses arising as a direct result of the Contributor’s breach of this Agreement or the Contributor’s negligence.

5.Covenants and Agreements.

5.1 Covenants of the Contributor.

5.1.1From the Effective Date through the Closing, the Contributor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Operating Partnership:

(a)Sell, transfer (or agree to sell or transfer), assign or otherwise dispose of, or cause the sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of (or agree to do any of the foregoing) all or any portion of its interest in the Contributed Assets or the Assumed Agreements or all or any portion of its interest in the Property; or

(b)Except as otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule, mortgage, pledge or encumber all or any portion of the Property or the Contributed Assets.

5.1.2From the Effective Date through the Closing, the Contributor shall conduct its business with respect to the Property in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and, to the extent within its control, shall not, without the prior written consent of the Operating Partnership:

(a)Amend, modify or terminate any material Leases, agreements or other instruments, or enter into any new leases related to the Property;

(b)Enter into any material transaction not in the ordinary course of business with respect to the Property;

(c)Except as otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule, mortgage, pledge or encumber the Property or any assets related to the Property or the Contributed Assets (other than by Permitted Liens), except (i) Liens for taxes not delinquent or being disputed by the Contributor in good faith and by appropriate proceedings in the ordinary course of the Contributor’s business, and (ii) mechanics’ Liens being disputed by the Contributor in good faith and by appropriate proceedings in the ordinary course of the Contributor’s business;

(d)Cause or permit a change to the existing use of the Property other than as a result of entering into new Leases in compliance with this Agreement; or

(e)Cause or take any action that would render any of the representations or warranties regarding the Property as set forth in this Agreement untrue in any material respect (other than as a result of entering into new Leases in compliance with this Agreement).

The Operating Partnership shall approve or disapprove in writing any of the foregoing actions to be taken by the Contributor within 5 business days after receiving a written request from the Contributor (including all information reasonably relevant to the Operating Partnership’s consideration) for such approval, which approval shall be in the Operating Partnership’s sole discretion.

5.1.3From the Effective Date, the Contributor agrees to provide the Operating Partnership with such tax information relating to the Property as reasonably requested by the Operating Partnership and to cooperate with the Operating Partnership with respect to the Operating Partnership’s filing of its tax returns.

5.1.4From the Effective Date, the Contributor shall promptly provide notice to the Operating Partnership upon any discovery that may lead to the Contributor’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement being incomplete, inaccurate or in any manner not completely true and correct as of the Closing Date, including, without limitation, any matter which if uncured prior to the Closing Date would have such effect, even if the Contributor intends to cure, correct or remedy such matter prior to the Closing and is implementing such cure, correction or remedy. If the disclosed item(s) represents a breach by the Contributor and the Operating Partnership determines in good faith that the disclosed item(s) contained in any such notice represents an impairment in the value of the Property in excess of the Maximum Per Property Total Consideration Adjustment, then the Operating Partnership may elect, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement and, if such election is made, the Operating Partnership shall receive a full return of the Earnest Money. In the alternative, in the event that such impairment in value is below the Maximum Per Property Total Consideration Adjustment or the Operating Partnership otherwise elects to proceed with the acquisition of the Property, then the Operating Partnership may deduct from the Total Consideration an amount representing the reduction in value to the Property that the Operating Partnership reasonably determines has resulted or is likely to result from such disclosed item(s).

5.2 Prorations. All income and expenses of the Property shall be apportioned as of 12:01 am ET on the Closing Date, with the Operating Partnership being deemed to be the owner of the Property during the entire day on which the Closing Date occurs and being entitled to receive all revenue of the Property, and being obligated to pay all expenses of the Property, with respect to such day.

5.2.1Such prorated items shall include the following:

(a)all rents and any other income with respect to the Property received by the Closing Date, if any, and for the current month not yet delinquent, and such proration of rents shall be based on a rent roll updated not less than one day prior to the Closing Date;

(b)taxes and assessments (including personal property taxes on the Fixtures and Personal Property) levied against the Property;

(c)subject to rights under Leases regarding payments or prorations of utility payments by tenants (which will be governed by the rent proration provision described in Section 5.2.1(a)), utility charges for which the Contributor is liable, if any, such charges to be apportioned at the Closing on the basis of the most recent meter reading occurring prior to the Closing (dated not more than 15 days prior to the Closing) or, if unmetered, on the basis of a current bill for each such utility;

(d)all amounts payable with respect to Assumed Liabilities in effect as of the Closing;

(e)any other operating expenses or other items pertaining to the Property which are customarily prorated between a transferor and transferee of real estate in the county in which the Property is located.

5.2.2Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5.2, the following shall apply:

(a)Except as provided in the following sentence, all delinquent real estate taxes and assessments shall be paid by the Contributor at or before the Closing, together with any interest, penalties or other fees related to any delinquent taxes. In determining prorations relating to non-delinquent taxes, the Operating Partnership shall be credited with an amount equal to the real estate taxes and assessments applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, to the extent such amount has not been actually paid by the Contributor. In the event that the Contributor has paid prior to the Closing any real estate taxes or assessments related to the Property applicable to the period after the Closing Date, the Contributor shall be entitled to a credit for such amount. In connection with the re-proration of real estate taxes and assessments for which a credit was given or a proration was made at the Closing, the parties shall adjust the differences between them promptly upon demand being made therefor by either the Contributor or the Operating Partnership. If, after the Closing, any additional real estate taxes or assessments applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date are levied for any reason, including back assessments or escape assessments, then the Contributor shall pay all such additional amounts. If, after the Closing, the Contributor or the Operating Partnership receive any property tax refunds regarding the Property relating to a period prior to the Closing, then that portion of the refunds related to a period prior to the Closing that is required to be refunded to any tenant of the Property shall be delivered to or retained by, as the case may be, the Operating Partnership for the purpose of making such refund payments with the remaining portion of such refunds retained by or delivered to, as the case may be, the Contributor. The Operating Partnership shall pay all supplemental taxes resulting from the change in ownership and reassessment occurring as the result of the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)Charges referred to in Section 5.2.1(c) which are payable by any tenant directly to a third party shall not be apportioned hereunder, and the Operating Partnership shall accept title

subject to any of such charges unpaid and the Operating Partnership shall look solely to the tenant responsible therefor for the payment of such charges. As to utilities and other operating expenses for which the Contributor is responsible, the Contributor may upon notice to the Operating Partnership elect to pay one or more of all of said items accrued to the date fixed for apportionment pursuant to this Agreement directly to the Person entitled thereto, and to the extent the Contributor so elects, such item shall not be apportioned hereunder, and the Contributor’s obligation to pay such item directly in such case shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

(c)The Operating Partnership shall take all steps necessary to effectuate the transfer of all utilities to the name of the Operating Partnership as of Closing, where necessary, post deposits with the utility companies, and provide the Contributor with written evidence of the transfer at or prior to Closing. The Contributor shall be entitled to recover any and all deposits held by any utility company as of the Closing Date.

(d)Unpaid rent from a tenant delinquent at Closing collected by the Operating Partnership or the Contributor after the date of Closing shall be delivered as follows: (i) if the Contributor collects any such unpaid delinquent rent, the Contributor shall, within 15 days after the receipt thereof, deliver to the Operating Partnership any such rent which the Operating Partnership is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of the Closing and any period thereafter, and (ii) if the Operating Partnership collects any such unpaid delinquent rent, the Operating Partnership shall, within 15 days after the receipt thereof, deliver to the Contributor any such rent to which the Contributor is entitled hereunder relating to the period prior to the date of Closing. The parties agree that (i) all rent received by the Contributor or the Operating Partnership within the first 60-day period after the date of Closing from a tenant delinquent at Closing shall be applied first to delinquent rent, if any, in the order of their maturity, and then to current rent, and (ii) all rent received by the Contributor or the Operating Partnership after the first 60-day period after the date of Closing from a tenant delinquent at Closing shall be applied first to current rent and then to delinquent rent, if any, in the inverse order of maturity. The Operating Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts after Closing to collect all rents in the usual course of the Operating Partnership’s operation of the Property, but the Operating Partnership will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect delinquent rents, except in the Operating Partnership’s sole discretion.

(e)The net proration credit to or charge against the Contributor on account of the prorations adjustments to be made upon the Closing shall be reflected through an adjustment to the cash portion of the Total Consideration to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement. Any other proration adjustments made following the Closing shall be made in cash.

(f)If any prorations hereunder cannot be calculated accurately on the Closing Date, then they shall be calculated as soon after the Closing Date as feasible. Either party owing the other party a sum of money based on such subsequent proration(s) shall promptly pay said sum to the other party, with interest per annum at the prime rate of interest as set forth in The Wall Street Journal plus 3% from the Closing Date to the date of payment if payment is not made within 10 business days after delivery of a bill therefor. Once all revenue and expense amounts have been finally and completely ascertained, the Operating Partnership shall prepare a final proration statement which shall be subject to the Contributor’s reasonable approval. Upon the Contributor’s acceptance and approval of any final proration statement submitted by the Operating Partnership, such statement shall be conclusively deemed to be accurate and final.

5.3 Tax Covenants. The Contributor shall promptly notify the Operating Partnership if the tax basis and depreciation information set forth in Exhibit D is or becomes incomplete or inaccurate, and the Contributor shall promptly provide the Operating Partnership with a corrected tax basis and depreciation schedule. The Contributor and the Operating Partnership shall provide each other with such cooperation and information relating to any of the Property as the parties reasonably may request in (i) filing any tax

return, amended tax return or claim for tax refund, (ii) determining any liability for taxes or a right to a tax refund, (iii) conducting or defending any proceeding in respect of taxes, or (iv) performing tax diligence, including with respect to the impact of this transaction on the Company’s tax status as a real estate investment trust (REIT). The Contributor shall promptly notify the Operating Partnership in writing upon receipt by the Contributor or any of their respective affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of the Contributor. The Operating Partnership may participate, at its own expense, in the prosecution of any claim or audit with respect to taxes attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Operating Partnership nor the Contributor may settle or otherwise resolve any such claim, suit or proceeding which could have an adverse tax effect on the other party or its affiliates without the consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Contributor shall retain all tax returns, schedules and work papers, and all material records and other documents relating thereto, until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any party, any extensions thereof) of the taxable years to which such tax returns and other documents relate and until the final determination of any tax in respect of such years.

5.4Confidentiality. Neither the Contributor, its principals, affiliates, agents or representatives shall disclose the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the purchase price and terms of sale, to any Person other than to the Contributor’s accountants, attorneys, lender and advisors with a need to know and who are informed they are bound by this confidentiality provision.

6.Termination; Default.

6.1 Termination. Provided that the Operating Partnership is not in default, this Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing Date at the Operating Partnership’s option (and the Earnest Money immediately returned to the Operating Partnership in full) in the event of any of the following occurrences:

6.1.1The Contributor fails to comply with any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement;

6.1.2A default exists in any material financial obligation of the Contributor;

6.1.3Any representation or warranty made or contained in any submission from the Contributor proves to be untrue, substantially false or misleading at any time prior to the Closing Date;

6.1.4There shall be a material action, suit or proceeding pending or threatened against the Contributor or the Property;

6.1.5The Title Company refuses to provide written confirmation that it will issue an owner’s title insurance policy reflecting only the Permitted Liens, endorsements or affirmative insurance requested by the Operating Partnership during the Due Diligence Period; and

6.1.6Notice of termination given by the Operating Partnership pursuant to any express right to do so under this Agreement.

6.2 Default by the Operating Partnership. If at any time after expiration of the Due Diligence Period the Operating Partnership fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder and such failure continues for 15 business days after the Operating Partnership receives written notice of such default from the Contributor, then the Contributor, at its option and as the Contributor’s sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Operating Partnership, in which event the Contributor shall be entitled to the Earnest Money as liquidated damages, and neither the Operating Partnership nor the Contributor shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement

except for any matters that survive termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision is not intended to limit the Operating Partnership’s obligations to indemnify the Contributor for certain matters as expressly provided in this Agreement nor is it intended to limit the Operating Partnership’s ability to terminate this Agreement as provided herein.

6.3 Default by the Contributor. If (x) the Contributor fails to perform any of the Contributor’s closing obligations and such failure is not cured within 3 days after the Contributor receives written notice from the Operating Partnership, or (y) if any of the Contributor’s representations or warranties set forth herein are determined to be materially inaccurate or untrue when made and such failure continues for 15 days after the Contributor receives written notice from the Operating Partnership (or such longer period as reasonably required by the Contributor to effect such cure, but in no event more than 30 days) or the Closing Date, if earlier, then the Operating Partnership, at its option and as the Operating Partnership’s sole and exclusive remedy, shall have the right to (i) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Contributor, whereupon the Earnest Money shall be immediately delivered to the Operating Partnership by the Title Company upon receipt of written notice from the Operating Partnership of such termination and the Contributor shall reimburse the Operating Partnership for all of the Operating Partnership’s third party actual documented reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (the “Contributor Breakage Fee”) and thereafter, neither the Operating Partnership nor the Contributor shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for any matters that survive termination of this Agreement, (ii) pursue a damage claim not to exceed the Contributor Breakage Fee and receive a full return of the Earnest Money or (iii) enforce specific performance of the obligations of the Contributor under this Agreement. Any suit for specific performance must be filed within 180 days after the Closing Date or shall thereafter be barred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision is not intended to limit the Contributor’s obligations to indemnify the Operating Partnership for certain matters as expressly provided in this Agreement.

7.Miscellaneous.

obligations hereunder to an affiliate so long as such transfer does not change the amount or form of the Total Consideration to be delivered to the Contributor.

7.7 Titles. The titles and captions of the Articles, Sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall have no effect on the construction or meaning of this Agreement.

7.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, is for any reason held to any extent to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision and to execute any amendment, consent or agreement deemed necessary or desirable by the Operating Partnership to effect such replacement.
