(a)Seller shall be obligated to discharge the following Objections: (i) any Objection that constitutes a mortgage encumbering the Property; and (ii) any Objection that constitutes a mechanic's lien of record resulting from work that Seller has performed or caused to be performed at the Property, (iii) any other mortgage or encumbrance placed upon the Property by Seller which can be satisfied by the payment of money; and (iv) any federal or other tax lien against the Property with respect to taxes that are delinquent. Nothing in this subparagraph shall be deemed to impose any obligation on Seller to discharge any Objection as to which there is a bona fide dispute or to institute any litigation.

(b)Except for Objections delineated in Section 6.04(a) hereof, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to discharge (or attempt to discharge) any Objections, and, in that regard, may, but shall not be obligated to, (i) bring any action or proceeding or (ii) incur any expense or liability (contingent or otherwise) to discharge (or attempt to discharge) any Objections, the determination as to whether to undertake or not undertake any such action to be Seller's in Seller's sole and absolute discretion.

Section 6.06    For all purposes of this Agreement, an Objection shall be deemed “discharged” by Seller if either:

(a)    the Title Company shall be willing to omit such Objection as an exception to Purchaser's title insurance coverage with respect to the Property (or, if the Title Company is not willing to so omit such Objection, another reputable title insurance company licensed in the State of New York and designated by Seller shall be willing to issue Purchaser title insurance, with coverage that so omits such Objection); or

(b)    the Title Company (while unwilling to omit such Objection as an exception to Purchaser's title insurance coverage with respect to the Property) shall be willing in the case of any Objection constituting a covenant or other restriction affecting (or purporting to affect) the Property, to issue affirmative insurance against the enforcement of such Objection against the Property (other than to an extent that would not interfere, in any material respect, with Purchaser's contemplated use of the Property in accordance with applicable zoning laws, rules and regulations).

Section 6.07    Seller may, if Seller so elects in Seller's sole discretion, (i) use any portion of the Balance to discharge any Objection(s) or (ii) deposit with the Title Company any monies (which may include a portion of the Purchase Price) and/or deliver to the Title Company any documents (which may include indemnities) sufficient to effectuate the discharge of any Objections in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

option, wire funds to separate accounts, aggregating no more than the amount of the Balance, to facilitate the discharge of any Objections and the discharge of Seller's other monetary obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of any real estate transfer taxes.

Promptly after the new tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of real estate taxes shall be recomputed. Any discrepancy resulting from such re-computation shall be promptly corrected, which obligation shall survive the Closing.

Section 10.03    Seller is currently disputing a charge of approximately $24,559.70 on its real estate tax bill that relates to sewer charges assessed in or about 2012. If such dispute is not resolved prior to Closing, Purchaser shall execute such documentation as is required to enable Seller to continue to contest such charge and, if Purchaser should receive a refund of all or part of such charge after the Closing by way of refund or reduction or credit against real estate taxes, Purchaser shall promptly so advise Seller and pay Seller the amount of such refund, reduction or credit.

Section 10.04    Any errors or omissions in computing apportionments shall be promptly corrected, which obligations shall survive the Closing.

Seller shall pay Newmark any commission due Newmark, by separate agreement. Newmark shall be responsible for paying Metro any commission, fees or other compensation due Metro pursuant to separate agreement between Newmark and Metro; and neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any obligation with respect to the payment of Metro.

Section 12.02    Seller covenants that should any claim be made against Purchaser for any commission or other compensation (a) by Newmark by reason of Seller's failure to pay Newmark its commission or (b) by any other broker, finder, person, firm or corporation based upon or alleging negotiations, dealings or communications with Seller in connection with this transaction or the Property, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any and all damages, expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) and liability arising from such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not indemnify or hold harmless Purchaser from any claim by Metro.

Section 12.03    Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that it has not hired, retained or dealt with any broker, finder, consultant, person, firm, or corporation in connection with the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby, except that Purchaser has dealt with Newmark (whose commission is to be paid by Seller by separate agreement) and Metro (whose commission is to be paid by Newmark).

Section 12.04    Purchaser covenants that should any claim be made against Seller for any commission or other compensation by any broker, finder, person, firm or corporation (other than Newmark) based upon or alleging negotiations, dealings or communications with Purchaser in connection with this transaction or the Property, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all damages, expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) and liability arising from such claim.

Section 12.05    The provisions of this Article 12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the Closing.

ARTICLE 13.Merger Provision.

All understandings and agreements heretofore had between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement are merged in this Agreement, which alone completely expresses their agreement with respect to such subject matter, and this Agreement is entered into after full investigation, neither party relying upon any statement or representation made by the other not embodied in this Agreement. Purchaser expressly acknowledges that Seller has not undertaken, nor does it have, any duty of disclosure

to Purchaser with respect to the Property or anything related thereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE 14.Acceptance of Deed; Survival.

The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed an acknowledgment by Purchaser that Seller has fully complied with all of its obligations hereunder and that Seller is discharged therefrom and that Seller shall have no further obligation or liability with respect to any of the agreements, warranties or representations made by Seller in this Agreement, except for those contained in provisions of this Agreement which, pursuant to the express provisions hereof, survive the Closing.

ARTICLE 15.Condemnation; Casualty.

Section 15.01     If, during the period between the date hereof and the Closing, the Town of Smithtown or any other governmental authority having a power of eminent domain shall initiate any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings (“Taking Proceedings”) which might result in the taking of the Property or any part thereof (the "Taking"), then, in any such event, (I) Seller shall so notify Purchaser, (II) Seller shall have no liability to Purchaser on account thereof, (III) if such proceedings might result in a Taking of all or any portion of the Improvements, all or any portion of the parking lot on the Land (unless such taking is immaterial), and/or any material portion of the Land and Improvements, Purchaser shall have the right to elect either (a) to accept such title as Seller is able to convey, without any reduction of the Purchase Price or any credit or allowance on account thereof or any other claim against Seller, or (b) to terminate this Agreement, and (IV) with respect to any other Taking, this Agreement shall not terminate but shall remain in full force and effect. If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding clause (III) (b), then this Agreement shall terminate, whereupon (i) the Downpayment shall be returned to Purchaser, and (ii) thereafter, Purchaser and Seller shall have no further liability or obligations under this Agreement except with respect to the provisions hereof which by their terms expressly survive the termination hereof. If clause III applies, Purchaser shall make its election between subclauses (a) and (b) of clause III by written notice to Seller given not later than the fifth (5^th) business day after the receipt by Purchaser of notice from Seller of condemnation or eminent domain proceedings. If Purchaser shall fail to give such notice as aforesaid, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected subclause (a) above of Clause III and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If this Agreement is not terminated by reason of any such Taking Proceedings, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to effectuate the Closing under all the terms of this Agreement, subject, however, to the following: (1) Purchaser shall accept the Property subject to the Taking Proceedings (or, if the Taking shall have occurred prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall accept the remaining portions of the Property), without any adjustment to the Purchase Price on account thereof; (2) Seller, prior to the Closing, shall, in consultation with Purchaser, and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, make all filings and other submissions required of the owner of the Property prior to the Closing in order to preserve and/or apply for any and all claims for any condemnation award on account of such Taking Proceedings, provided, however, that Seller shall not settle any such claims without Purchaser's approval, which approval Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold; and (3) Seller, at the Closing, shall (x) pay to Purchaser an amount equal to any condemnation award theretofore received by Seller on account of such Taking, and (y) assign and transfer to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award which may thereafter be paid on account of such Taking. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, and to the extent, any of Seller's Personal Property is condemned as part of any such Taking, Seller shall be entitled to receive and retain the portion of any such condemnation awards allocable thereto.

Section 15.02    If, prior to the Closing, there shall occur damage to the Property caused by fire or other casualty which would cost less than $300,000.00 (the “Casualty Threshold”) to repair, as reasonably

determined by an engineer selected by Seller and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, then Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement by reason thereof, but Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing, by written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, all of the insurance proceeds payable on account of any such fire or casualty, shall deliver to Purchaser any such proceeds actually paid to Seller less the Reimbursable Amounts (hereinafter defined), and shall afford to Purchaser at Closing a credit against the balance of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to any deductible. If prior to the Closing there shall occur damage to the Property caused by fire or other casualty which would cost an amount equal to the Casualty Threshold or more to repair, as reasonably determined by an engineer selected by Seller and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, then Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Seller and Escrow Agent within ten (10) days after Seller has given Purchaser notice that such damage occurred, or at the Closing, whichever is earlier, as of which date TIME SHALL BE OF THE ESSENCE, upon which termination, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Downpayment to Purchaser, this Agreement shall thereupon be null and void and neither party hereto shall thereupon have any further obligation to the other, except for those obligations and liabilities that are expressly stated to survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not timely elect to terminate this Agreement, then the Closing shall take place as herein provided, without adjustment of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing, by written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, all of the insurance proceeds payable on account of any such fire or casualty less the Reimbursable Amounts, shall deliver to Purchaser any such proceeds or awards actually paid to Seller, and shall afford to Purchaser at Closing a credit against the balance of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to any deductible. The proceeds of rent interruption insurance, if any, shall on the Closing Date be appropriately apportioned between Purchaser and Seller. The term “Reimbursable Amounts” shall mean costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or for the account of Seller in connection with fire or other casualty for (x) compliance with governmental ordinances, orders or requirements of any governmental department, agency or bureau having jurisdiction of the Property, (y) safeguarding the Property or any part thereof, including any protective restoration or (z) emergency repairs made by or on behalf of Seller (to the extent Seller has not theretofore been reimbursed by its insurance carrier).

Section 15.03    The parties hereby waive the provisions of Section 5-1311 of the New York General Obligations Law, and agree that the same shall not apply to this Agreement.

ARTICLE 16.Remedies.

Section 16.01    If Seller defaults in its obligation to effectuate the Closing hereunder, Purchaser shall be entitled, as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, to either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Downpayment and be reimbursed by Seller for the reasonable cost of any environmental assessments, title reports, and surveys obtained by Purchaser in connection with its proposed purchase of the Property and its attorneys' fees incurred in connection with its proposed purchase, to the extent such costs and fees do not exceed, in the aggregate, $15,000.00, or (b) seek specific performance of this Agreement. Purchaser waives any and all rights to bring any other legal proceeding for such default.

Section 16.02    Purchaser acknowledges that (i) Seller, by executing and delivering this Agreement, will be forgoing other opportunities to sell the Property, and (ii) Seller, in entering into this Agreement, has agreed to do so only if the Downpayment is paid to Seller unconditionally and on a non-refundable basis (except as expressly provided herein), as liquidated damages in the event that Purchaser fails to effectuate the Closing as and when required hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that it would be impractical and extremely difficult, if not impossible, to fix actual damages that would be suffered by Seller as a result of such failure. The parties therefore agree that if Purchaser defaults in its obligation to effectuate the Closing hereunder, then Seller, as its sole remedy on account thereof, may terminate this Agreement by written notice

to Purchaser, whereupon Seller shall be entitled to retain the Downpayment as liquidated damages on account of such default, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than those which, pursuant to the express provisions hereof, survive the termination of this Agreement. The parties have consulted with their respective advisors and attorneys and have negotiated with each other and have agreed upon an amount for the Downpayment that both believe is fair and reasonable under the circumstances and a suitable proxy for actual damages. The payment of the Downpayment to Seller as liquidated damages is not intended to be a forfeiture or penalty, but instead is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller and is a reasonable estimate of the damages that will be incurred by Seller if Purchaser defaults in its obligation to purchase the Property hereunder. Purchaser covenants not to bring any action or suit challenging the amount of liquidated damages provided hereunder in the event of such default.

Section 16.03    If Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to a right given to it hereunder and Purchaser takes any action which interferes with Seller's ability to sell, exchange, transfer, lease, dispose of or finance the Property or take any other actions with respect thereto (including the filing of any lis pendens or other form of attachment against the Property), then the named Purchaser (and any assignee of Purchaser's interest hereunder) shall be liable for, and indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and disbursements and consequential damages) incurred by Seller by reason of such action to contest by Purchaser.

Section 16.04    Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall in any way limit any indemnification obligation of Seller or Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. This Article 16 shall expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 17.Assignment; Benefit and Burden; Section 1031 Applicability.

Section 17.01    Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights of Purchaser hereunder (nor the benefit of such rights) may be assigned or encumbered by Purchaser, in whole or in part, without Seller's prior written consent, and any purported assignment or encumbrance without Seller's prior written consent shall be void and constitute a default hereunder.

Section 17.02    Neither the consent of Seller to an assignment by Purchaser, nor the assignment itself, shall release Purchaser in any respect from the performance or observance of any of the covenants to be performed or observed by Purchaser under this Agreement, Purchaser in such case being primarily and jointly and severally liable with each assignee, nor shall such consent or assignment relieve the permitted assignee from obtaining Seller's prior written consent to any further assignment.

Section 17.03    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Purchaser and Seller and their respective legal representatives, successors in interest and assigns.

Section 17.04    Each of Purchaser and Seller has informed the other that in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby it may be effectuating an exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. To facilitate such exchange, and as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller each consents (i) to an assignment by the other party of this Agreement or of any of such other party's rights hereunder to a Qualified Intermediary (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4)) and (ii) to take such other actions as are reasonably necessary to facilitate such like-kind exchange, which shall in no event involve Seller or Purchaser acquiring title to or owning any replacement property on behalf of the other or the party not participating in such exchange incurring material expenses (unless such expenses, if material, are reimbursed by the other party) or material liability, unless the party incurring any such material liability is indemnified or otherwise held

harmless by the other party in a manner satisfactory to it. Seller and Purchaser each agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other in effectuating the like-kind exchange and to execute all documents reasonably necessary in connection therewith subject to the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence and otherwise in this Section 17.04. Purchaser and Seller each acknowledges that Purchaser's purchase of the Property and/or Seller's sale of the Property pursuant to a like-kind exchange is not, and shall in no event be construed as, a condition of this transaction, and in no event shall Seller or Purchaser have any liability to the other in respect of such like-kind exchange if such like-kind exchange is not effectuated for any reason.

ARTICLE 18.Downpayment Provisions.

Section 18.01    All sums paid on account of the Purchase Price prior to the Closing (collectively, “Downpayment”) shall be paid by official bank check drawn to the order of and delivered to “Schoeman, Updike & Kaufman, LLP as Escrow Agent” (“Escrow Agent”) or by wire transfer to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of the Downpayment and clearance of the funds, pay the Non-Refundable Portion of the Downpayment to Seller. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment in escrow in a special bank account at Citibank, N.A. located at 330 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017 (or as otherwise agreed in writing by Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent) until the Closing or sooner termination of this Agreement and shall pay over or apply the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment in accordance with the terms of this Section. Escrow Agent shall hold the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment in an interest or dividend bearing account, and such interest or dividends shall be paid to the same party entitled to the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment, and the party receiving such interest shall pay any income taxes thereon. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any interest on the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment except as is actually earned, or for the loss of any interest resulting from the withdrawal of the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment prior to the date interest is posted thereon or for any loss of the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment or interest caused by the failure, suspension, bankruptcy or dissolution of the institution in which the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment is deposited. Each of the parties, upon Escrow Agent's request, shall promptly furnish to Escrow Agent a completed and executed Form W-9, together with such other information as Escrow Agent shall reasonably require. At the Closing, the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment and the interest thereon, if any, shall be paid by Escrow Agent to Seller. If for any reason the Closing does not occur and either party makes a written demand upon Escrow Agent for payment of such amount, 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 the proposed payment within 10 business days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment. If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such 10 day period or if for any other reason Escrow Agent in good faith shall elect not to make such payment, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions from the parties to this Agreement or a final and non‑appealable judgment of a court. However, Escrow Agent shall have the right at any time to deposit the escrowed proceeds and interest thereon, if any, with the clerk of the Supreme Court of the county in which the Property is located. Escrow Agent shall give written notice of such deposit to Seller and Purchaser. Upon such deposit Escrow Agent shall be relieved and discharged of all further obligations and responsibilities hereunder. If the Refundable Portion of the Downpayment is deposited in a money market account, dividends thereon shall be treated, for purposes of this Section, as interest.

Section 18.02    The parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the duties of Escrow Agent hereunder are purely ministerial in nature and shall be expressly limited to the safekeeping and disposition of the Downpayment in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, 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 act or omission on its part unless taken or suffered in bad faith, in willful disregard of this Agreement or involving gross negligence.

Seller and Purchaser 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 suffered by Escrow Agent in bad faith, in willful disregard of this Agreement or involving gross negligence on the part of Escrow Agent.

Section 18.03    Escrow Agent has acknowledged agreement to these provisions by signing in the place indicated on the signature page of this Agreement.

Section 18.04    If Escrow Agent is Seller's attorney, Escrow Agent or any member of its firm shall be permitted to act as counsel for Seller in any dispute as to the disbursement of the Downpayment or any other dispute between the parties whether or not Escrow Agent is in possession of the Downpayment and continues to act as Escrow Agent.

Section 18.05    Escrow Agent may act or refrain from acting in respect of any matter referred to in this Section in full reliance upon and with the advice of counsel which may be selected by it (including any member of its firm) and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from action upon the advice of such counsel.

Section 18.06    All payments of Purchaser on account of the Downpayment, and Purchaser's expenses for title examination (not to exceed $1,000.00), are hereby made a lien against the Property. Said lien shall not continue or exist after any default by Purchaser hereunder.

ARTICLE 19.No Oral Modification or Reliance by or Benefit to Third-Parties.

Section 19.01    This Agreement may not be amended, modified or terminated, nor may any provision hereof be waived, except by a written instrument signed by both Purchaser and Seller.

Section 19.02    No person or entity other than a party to this Agreement shall be entitled to rely on this Agreement, and this Agreement is not made for the benefit of any person or entity not a party hereto. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

ARTICLE 20.Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any party or circumstances shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE 21.Governing Law and Venue.

The validity of this Agreement and the rights, obligations and relations of the parties hereunder shall be construed and determined under and in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. All actions or proceedings relating to this Agreement shall be litigated only in courts located within the County of Suffolk and State of New York. Each party hereby subjects itself to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located within the County of Suffolk and State of New York.
