3.2           Disbursement.  The Earnest Money shall be disbursed by Escrow Agent at Closing to Seller as a portion of the Purchase Price unless otherwise disbursed pursuant to this Agreement.  Whenever the Earnest Money is, by the terms hereof, to be disbursed by Escrow Agent, Seller and Buyer agree promptly to execute and deliver such notice or notices as shall be reasonably necessary to authorize Escrow Agent to make such disbursement, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Escrow Agreement with respect to a disbursement of the Earnest Money on or prior to the Inspection Date.

 

Section 4.         Purchase Price.

 

4.1           Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price, as adjusted by the prorations provided in Section 4.2 hereof and less the Earnest Money shall be paid by Buyer to Seller at the Closing in United States dollars, by Federal Reserve System wire transfer or other immediately available funds acceptable to Seller to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller prior to the Closing.  Seller shall be solely responsible for the apportionment and disbursement of the net proceeds of Closing among and between the various entities comprising the Seller.

 

4.2           Prorations.  At the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall prorate all items of income and expenses relating to the Property based upon Buyer’s and Seller’s respective periods of ownership for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs with Buyer treated as the owner of the Property as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date.  Such prorations shall include, without limitation:

 

4.2.1                Rents.

 

(i)            Closing.  Except as provided in subparagraph (ii) below, Seller shall pay or credit to Buyer (with respect to periods from and after the Closing Date), if, as and when the same shall be received:  (A) all Rent paid by Tenants under the Leases for the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, prorated for the number of days during such calendar month from, including and after the Closing, and (B) all prepaid and overpaid Rents of all Tenants under the Leases, to the extent actually paid by Tenants to Seller on or prior to the Closing Date.  At Closing, no Delinquent Rents (as defined below) outstanding for the month in which Closing occurs shall be prorated in favor of either Seller or Buyer.  Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its successors and assigns, from and against any liability (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from Buyer’s failure to account properly to Tenants for prepaid and overpaid Rents to the extent actually identified as such by Seller and credited to Buyer by Seller at Closing; and Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its successors and assigns from and against any liability (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from Seller’s failure to credit to Buyer, at Closing, prepaid and overpaid Rents actually delivered to Seller by Tenants.  Such indemnities shall survive the Closing Date and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.
 
(ii)           Post-Closing.  After the Closing, Buyer shall make good faith efforts to collect all unpaid Rents for any period prior to the Closing, provided that Buyer shall have no obligation to institute litigation or terminate any Leases in connection with any such collections.  Any Rents due and owing Seller before the Closing Date by

 

6



 

Tenants under the Leases that are unpaid at the Closing, are herein called “Delinquent Rents”.  Following Closing, rental and other payments received by Buyer or Seller from Tenants shall be first applied toward any Rents due and owing to Buyer for any period of time following the Closing; second, to the actual out-of-pocket costs of collection incurred by Buyer and paid to third parties; third, such Rents shall be applied toward the payment of any Rents due during the month of Closing; and fourth, to any Delinquent Rents owed to Seller.  Seller shall have and reserves the right to pursue any remedy available to Seller at law or in equity against any Tenant owing Delinquent Rents, provided that Seller shall in no event institute any proceeding to evict or dispossess a Tenant from the Property.  Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, restrict Seller from collecting such Delinquent Rents, but only if Buyer first pays Seller such Delinquent Rents in exchange for Seller’s assignment to Buyer of all of Seller’s rights and causes of action with respect thereto.  The provisions of this 4.2.1(ii) shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.
 

4.2.2        Real Estate Taxes.  All real estate taxes levied against the Property (collectively, “Taxes”) shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller on a cash basis, (i.e. those Taxes for which final bills are issued in the calendar year in which the Closing occurs and that become due and payable in the year in which the Closing occurs will be prorated between Buyer and Seller regardless of the tax, fiscal or calendar year during which such Taxes accrued).  If the actual amount of Taxes due and payable in the year of Closing is not ascertainable as of the Closing Date, proration of Taxes shall be based upon the most currently available bill for such Taxes, and shall be reprorated when the actual final bill is available, in accordance with Section 4.2.7.  Such reproration obligation shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section 4.2.7, there will be no proration for Taxes to the extent a Project is leased to a single Tenant and such Tenant’s respective Lease requires that Tenant to pay Taxes, whether directly or by reimbursement to Seller, rather than paying estimated amounts therefor to Seller as additional rent.  Buyer shall pay all Taxes due and payable after Closing, and reconciliations with Tenants for Taxes due and payable during calendar year 2005 shall be responsibility of Buyer post-Closing, pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 4.2.7 below.  In no event shall Seller be charged with or responsible for any increase in the Taxes resulting from an increase in the assessed valuation of any Project, which increase occurs as a result of the sale of the Property or from any improvements first made or Leases first entered into on or after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller nevertheless acknowledges that Taxes may increase due to changes in assessed valuation and/or in tax rates, without the change in assessed valuation being attributable to the sale of a Project or any post-Closing leasing or improvements thereon.

 

(i)            Delinquent Taxes.  Seller shall pay to the applicable tax authorities at or prior to the Closing all Taxes and assessments with respect to the Property which are delinquent as of the Closing.
 
(ii)           Prepaid Taxes.  If any portion of any other assessments (e.g. special assessments and specifically excluding Taxes) paid by Seller with respect to the Property at or prior to the Closing, determined on a cash (rather than accrual) basis, relate

 

7



 

to any time including or after the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller at the Closing the proportionate amount of such other assessments paid by Seller, based upon (x) the period of time to which such other assessment applies and (y) the Closing Date.
 
(iii)          Tax Refunds.  All refunds of Taxes received by Seller or Buyer after the Closing with respect to the Property (“Tax Refund”) shall be applied (A) first, to Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, to the extent of third party expenses incurred by either party in protesting and obtaining such Tax Refund, (B) second, to Buyer to the extent that such Tax Refund is required to be paid to (or credited against other amounts payable by) the Tenants under the Leases, and (C) third, (x) to Seller if such Tax Refund is for any period which ends before the Closing Date, (y) to Buyer if such Tax Refund is for any tax period which commences after the Closing, and (z) with respect to any Tax Refund that applies to a period of time that elapses prior to, inclusive of, and subsequent to, the Closing Date, to Seller and Buyer, prorated on a per diem basis.  If Seller or Buyer receives any Tax Refund, then each shall retain or pay such amounts (or portions thereof) in order that such payments are applied in the manner set forth in this Subsection.  Buyer hereby agrees to execute all consents, receipts, instruments and documents which may reasonably be requested in order to facilitate settling any tax appeal proceeding commenced by Seller prior to the Closing Date and collecting the amount of any Tax Refund, provided that no liability or obligation is imposed on Buyer in connection with, or as a result of, the execution and delivery of such documents.  Prior to the Inspection Date, as part of the Seller Deliveries, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a schedule of any and all tax appeal proceedings, protests or contests that Seller has filed (or that have been filed on behalf of Seller) and that may result in the issuance of a Tax Refund.  The provisions of this 4.2.2(iii) shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.
 
(iv)          Installments.  Seller’s prorated portion of any special assessments shall be determined assuming payment over the longest period of time (without imposition of interest or penalty) permitted by the applicable taxing authorities.
 

4.2.3                Utilities.  Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall notify each of the utility companies which provide services to the Property of the scheduled transfer of the Property on the Closing, and shall make appropriate arrangements with the utility companies to bill Seller for services provided before the Closing, and to bill Buyer for services provided from and after the Closing.  If, despite Buyer’s reasonable efforts, such arrangements cannot be made as of the Closing, then Seller and Buyer shall mutually and reasonably cooperate with one another to make the appropriate arrangements promptly after the Closing, and promptly after such arrangements are made, and final utility bills are issued, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the cost of the services that were billed to Seller for the period from and after Closing, and Seller shall pay the same to the appropriate utility company.  The provisions of this Section 4.2.3 shall survive the Closing.

 

4.2.4                Service Contracts.  At the Closing and with respect to those of the Service Contracts that shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing, (i) Seller shall pay or grant to Buyer, as a credit against the Purchase Price, the amount of accrued and

 

8



 

unpaid charges for services rendered before the Closing Date, prorated on a per diem basis, and (ii) Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of prepaid charges for services rendered from and after the Closing prorated on a per diem basis.

 

4.2.5                Tenant Security Deposits.  Buyer shall receive a credit (or Seller shall pay to Buyer) at Closing in an amount equal to the total amount of cash Security Deposits shown on the Lease List, less portions thereof which were applied by Seller prior to the Effective Date and in accordance with the applicable terms of the Leases.  Seller hereby covenants and agrees that it shall deliver to Buyer, among the Seller Deliveries, a true and complete schedule of all Security Deposits held by Seller as of the Effective Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Seller may not apply any Security Deposits against any Delinquent Rents after the Effective Date.  At least five (5) days prior to the Inspection Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with a schedule of the Security Deposits held by Seller in the form of a letter of credit rather than cash, and Seller shall also provide Buyer with true and complete copies of all such letters of credit.  Seller shall cause such transfers to be fully effected (at Seller’s expense) as soon after Closing as possible, it being understood and agreed that Seller shall either cause each such letter of credit to be amended in order to name Buyer as the beneficiary thereunder or to cause such letter of credit to be reissued in the same form and substance except to name Buyer as its sole beneficiary.  Prior to such amendment or reissuance of each and every letter of credit constituting a portion of the Security Deposits, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, and if, as and when Buyer advises Seller that Buyer desires that Seller present and draw upon any such letter of credit (given that Seller, rather than Buyer, is its beneficiary), Seller shall promptly and fully cooperate with Buyer (but at no out-of-pocket expense to Seller) to make such presentation and draw upon any letter of credit requested by Buyer and to immediately deliver the proceeds thereof to Buyer.  The provisions of this Section 4.2.5 (regarding letters of credit) shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.

 

4.2.6                CC&Rs; REAs; Owners Associations; and Assessments.  If any Project is located in a business park which is either or both (a) encumbered by a declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions (“CC&Rs”) or a reciprocal easement agreement (“REA”), or similar document and (b) governed by an owners association, then:  (i) at or prior to Closing, Seller shall make reasonable efforts to procure from the association (or the declarant under the CC&Rs or REA, as the case may be) and deliver to Buyer an estoppel letter that confirms the timely compliance, by Seller and the relevant Project, with (x) the obligation (if any) to pay any assessments due to the association (“Assessments”) by Seller, or with respect to its Project (e.g. a so-called “paid assessments” confirmation), and (y) any other obligations imposed on either or both of Seller and its Project under any applicable association by-laws, CC&Rs, REA or similar document encumbering the Project; and (ii) if any Assessments are due and payable with respect to a Project, then at the Closing:  (A) if such charges are payable after the Closing Date for a period before the Closing Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the amount of such charges allocated to the period before the Closing Date prorated on a per diem basis,

and (B) if such charges were paid before the Closing Date for a period from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the amount of such charges reasonably allocated to the period from, including and after the Closing prorated on a per diem basis.  At Closing, Seller shall resign its position as officer(s) and/or as board member(s) of any owner’s association that Seller held as owner of the Property.  If Seller is the declarant under any owner’s association, or manages the owners’ association for any portion of the Property, and after the Closing Date, Seller shall no longer retain at least a fifty-one percent (51%) interest in all of the land that is subject to the owners’ association, then promptly after the Closing Date, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer to transfer all such management responsibilities for such owners’ association(s) to Buyer, subject to any requirements that are imposed under the applicable agreements governing the owners’ association.

 

4.2.7                Reconcile Post-Closing.  Buyer and Seller shall work together after Closing to promptly transition the invoices for the Property.  The amount of payments by Seller or Buyer under this Section 4.2 may have been based on estimates of applicable amounts.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if any payments by Seller or Buyer at the Closing under this Section 4.2 are based on estimates, then, when the actual amounts are finally determined, Seller and Buyer shall recalculate the amounts that would have been paid at the Closing based on both (a) such actual amounts and (b) additional rent payments actually received from Tenants (whether received by Seller or by Buyer), and Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall make an appropriate payment to the other based on such recalculation.  Each of Seller and Buyer shall be responsible for preparing a reconciliation of all those items that are subject to proration under this Section 4.2, and each of their respective reconciliations shall be only for their respective periods of ownership of the Property during calendar year 2005.  Seller has advised Buyer that Seller currently anticipates that it shall complete its reconciliation (“Seller’s Reconciliation”) on or before December 31, 2005, at which time Seller shall submit its billings for such reconciliation to the Tenants whose Lease terms are in effect prior to the Closing Date.  The Tenant Notice Letters (defined below) shall advise the Tenants that they shall receive separate and district 2005 reconciliation billings from each of Seller and Buyer.  Seller shall deliver to Buyer a true and complete copy of Seller’s Reconciliation promptly upon completion thereof.  Additionally, simultaneously with Seller’s delivery to Buyer of Seller’s Reconciliation, Seller shall also deliver to Buyer copies of the back-up documentation (e.g. general ledger) upon which Seller relied in its preparation of Seller’s Reconciliation.  If Buyer then receives from any of the Tenants payments that are specifically marked as constituting such Tenants’ respective payment due to Seller pursuant to Seller’s Reconciliation, or if it is otherwise reasonably apparent to Buyer that a payment received by Buyer from a Tenant is intended to pay the sum that such Tenant then owes Seller, pursuant to Seller’s Reconciliation, Buyer shall promptly deliver such payments to Seller.   Seller shall both (i) make appropriate representatives of Seller available, from time to time, upon Buyer’s request, to respond to Tenant inquiries about Seller’s Reconciliation; and (ii) promptly deliver to Buyer, upon Buyer’s request, true and complete copies of any invoices required to evidence and support any charges made to a Tenant pursuant to Seller’s Reconciliation if such Tenant challenges or contests the reconciliation billing

delivered to such Tenant by Seller pursuant to Seller’s Reconciliation.  In the event of any subsequent adjustments in the final determination of additional rent owed by Tenants under the Leases for calendar year 2005 based upon the resolution by Seller, Buyer and Tenant of any dispute or contest of such amounts brought by Tenant pursuant to the terms of its Lease, Seller and Buyer shall promptly readjust between themselves the actual amounts owed for such calendar year, based upon such adjusted determination of additional rent owed by such Tenant.  In addition to the foregoing arrangements, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that (1) prior to Closing, and (2) with respect to capital expenditures made by Seller at or for the Property during the two (2) year period preceding the Closing Date,  and (3) if those capital expenditures are being billed through to the Tenants on an amortized basis, Seller shall deliver to Buyer true and complete copies of Seller’s general ledger reflecting these capital expenditures and the amortization thereof.  The provisions of this Section 4.2.7 shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.

 

4.2.8                Closing Date.  If the Earnest Money and balance of the Purchase Price is not delivered to the Title Insurer, in its capacity as escrow agent for the Closing, before 2:00 p.m. E.S.T. on the Closing Date, then the payments required to be made by Seller or Buyer under this Agreement shall be determined assuming that the Closing Date occurred on the day after the actual Closing.

 

4.2.9                Leasing Costs.  At or prior to Closing, Seller shall pay (a) any leasing commissions due and payable on or before the Closing Date under the Leases and (b) any leasing commissions due and payable over the original term of any Lease existing as of July 25, 2005, but excluding those “monthly over the term” leasing commissions due after the Closing Date with respect to those Leases with those Tenants listed on Exhibit S attached hereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the previous sentence, Buyer shall be responsible for (and shall reimburse Seller at Closing) for any amounts expended by Seller relating to:  (i) leasing commissions and tenant improvement costs in connection with any extension or renewal of the term of a Lease (x) exercised after July 25, 2005 to the extent attributable to periods from and after the Closing Date and (y) about which Seller advises Buyer, in writing, prior to the Inspection Date (including without limitation, payment of the Seller Commission, as defined below), (ii) leasing commissions and tenant improvement costs in connection with any new lease or Lease amendment (if such amendment provides for a renewal of the applicable Lease term or an expansion of the applicable Tenant’s leased premises) executed by Seller or any Commission Agreement agreed to by Seller (or amendments thereto) after July 25, 2005, but only if and to the extent that such new lease, lease amendment or Commission Agreement is executed in compliance with the provisions of Section 8 of this Agreement (including without limitation, payment of the Seller Commission); and (iii) the Seller Commission for both (x) new leases entered into within three (3) months after Closing with tenants which Seller or its affiliates initially procured and actively pursued as prospects for the subject Project during the three (3) month period preceding the Closing, and then only if such new tenant is included on the Protected Tenant List, as defined below, and (y) lease amendments providing for either or both of renewals of any Leases that are in effect on the Effective Date, and expansions of leased premises leased to

 

11



 

Tenant under Leases in effect on the Effective Date, if such lease amendments are entered into within three (3) months after the Closing.  Seller shall provide Buyer with a listing of all such tenant prospects at Closing (the “Protected Tenant List”).  Any leasing commissions payable hereunder by Buyer to Seller or its affiliates shall be paid at the rate set forth in the Commission Agreements; provided, however, that if no Commission Agreement exists, the amount payable to Seller shall be at the market rates set forth on Exhibit S attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference; provided, however, that if there is an outside broker that is also due a commission in connection with the applicable lease or lease amendment, then Seller shall be paid only fifty percent (50%) of such amounts (collectively, “Seller Commission”).  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, after the Closing Date, Buyer agrees to assume the obligation to pay those “monthly over the term” leasing commissions as set forth on Exhibit S or as otherwise specifically identified to Buyer by Seller prior to the Closing in connection with any new Lease executed after the Effective Date and pursuant to the requirements of Section 8.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that any Lease or written commission agreement to which Seller is a party provides that Seller is obligated to pay a commission to a broker, at a future date, based upon the applicable Tenant’s future expansion of its respective leased premises or upon such Tenant’s renewal or extension of its Lease term, but (x) such broker is not then actually involved in any such future expansion of leased premises or future extension or renewal of such Lease term (“Uninvolved Broker”) and (y) Buyer is obligated to pay a leasing commission to a third party broker who is (aa) involved in that future expansion or extension of such Lease and (bb) identified, in writing, by the applicable Tenant as such Tenant’s exclusive broker, then Seller shall remain obligated to pay, and shall promptly pay, the commission due the Uninvolved Broker.  This obligation imposed under this Section 4.2.9 shall survive Closing.

 

4.2.10              Closing Costs.  Buyer shall pay the cost of an owner’s policy of title insurance, search charges, costs for extended coverage and any endorsements to the title insurance policy, costs for recording the Deed, the cost of any lender’s policy of title insurance, the cost of the Survey, all escrow or closing agent charges, all costs associated with any encumbrance Buyer places on the Property at Closing, all costs of Buyer’s due diligence (except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement), and any other costs not expressly required to be paid by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.  Seller shall pay for state, county and municipal transfer taxes and documentary stamps.  Each of Seller and Buyer shall pay 50% of the third party costs incurred in order to transfer to Buyer those warranties that shall be assigned to Buyer pursuant to the Assignment (including, but not limited to, roof warranties).  Each party shall pay its own attorneys.  Brokerage commissions shall be paid as set forth in Section 15.  The obligations of the parties to pay applicable escrow or closing charges shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

4.2.11              *** Property Debt.  At Closing, Seller shall credit to Buyer an amount sufficient to pay off and release the *** debt encumbering the Property *** on Exhibit A (“*** Debt”) (plus one per diem day), and Buyer shall pay off and cause to be released from the record the *** Debt as of the day of Closing.  Seller shall

 

12



 

provide Buyer with a pay-off letter for the *** Debt from ***  (“Lender”) prior to Closing.  Seller agrees to pay  (by way of a credit to Buyer on the Closing Date), any “yield maintenance penalty” imposed by Lender or any other amount imposed or required by Lender as a condition to the prepayment of the *** Debt.  Seller (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, protect, and hold harmless Buyer and Buyer’s assigns (the “Indemnified Party”), and each of them, for any and all costs, expenses, claims, fines, penalties, or damages incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified Party, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and court costs, by either Lender or any other person or entity resulting from or arising out of the payment and release of the *** Debt as aforementioned.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right, as an alternative to Buyer’s payment of the *** Debt as set forth in this Section 4.2.11 to pay and release the *** Debt at or prior to Closing.  If Seller does not elect to prepay the *** Debt, in full, prior to Closing, then the provisions of this Section 4.2.11 shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any documentation delivered at Closing.  Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the lien of the *** Debt shall constitute a Permitted Title Exception that is subject to the provisions of this Section 4.2.11.

 

Section 5.         Title and Survey.

 

Prior to the Inspection Date, Seller shall identify (and advise Buyer, in writing, of) any easements or similar agreements Seller shall need to record prior to, or at Closing, to retain any rights on any of its property not being sold to Buyer.  All such easements and similar agreements shall be subject to Buyer’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Buyer will have until 6:00 p.m. E.S.T. on the date that is two (2) business days prior to the Inspection Date (“Title Objection Deadline”) to examine title to the Property and the Survey and give written notice to Seller of any objections to the title or the Survey which Buyer may have (“Title Objections”).  If Buyer fails to timely so advise Seller of any Title Objections, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such right to object to any title exceptions or defects.  Seller shall review any comments Buyer provides to Seller in writing regarding its Title Objections.  On or before the Inspection Date, Seller shall respond to any Title Objections that are timely delivered to Seller by Buyer.  If Seller’s response to any of Buyer’s Title Objections is not acceptable to Buyer, then Buyer may elect, by written notice to Seller, on or before 6:00 p.m. E.S.T. on the Inspection Date, either to (a) terminate this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer by Escrow Agent, and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly survive any such termination, or (b) waive its objections hereunder and proceed with the transaction pursuant to the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement.  If Buyer fails to timely advise Seller of its election, it shall be deemed to have elected the option contained in subpart (b) above.  In the event that (i) Buyer advises Seller of Title Objections on or before the Title Objection Deadline, and (ii) some or all of the Title Objections remain outstanding and unresolved to Buyer’s satisfaction (or uncured) on the Inspection Date (the “Outstanding Title Objections”), but Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to (a) above, then Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, from and after the Inspection Date and continuing to the Closing Date, Seller shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to address and resolve (or cure) the Outstanding Title Objections.  Seller is not obligated to actually resolve and cure those Outstanding Title Objections, but rather, to act reasonably and in good faith in an effort to do so.  It shall, however,

 

13



 

be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to close hereunder that the Title Policies (as defined in Section 9.1(d) below) include, among other coverages, the following endorsements:  ALTA 3.1 zoning (modified), with parking, for improved Projects and ALTA 3.0 zoning (modified) for undeveloped Projects; CLTA 103.11 or ALTA Form 17 Access and Entry (or ALTA Form 17.1 Indirect Access and Entry, as the case may be); CLTA 116.1 (so-called “same-as”); ALTA 9.2 REM (owner’s comprehensive); and utilities facilities for improved Projects (collectively, the “Endorsements”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (x) no zoning Endorsements will be issued with respect to any Projects located in Florida; and (y) the issuance of all Endorsements in the prescribed forms shall be subject to whatever limitations are applicable in those of the states in which Projects are located and that are “filed rate” jurisdictions, and as a result, in such filed-rate jurisdictions, certain of the Endorsements shall be issued in the substantive forms filed with, and approved by, the applicable insurance commissioner in such jurisdiction, rather than the forms specified above.  Buyer shall have the right at any time to waive any Title Objections that it may have made and, thereby, to preserve this Agreement in full force and effect.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall satisfy and discharge, at Seller’s sole cost, all liens (e.g. mortgage, tax, judgment and mechanics) on or before Closing or cause the Title Company to insure over such lien at Closing (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer), except for the *** Debt described in Subsection 4.2.11 above.  If, as of Closing, Seller fails to satisfy, in full, all liens encumbering the Property, except that of the *** Debt, then Buyer may deduct from, and set off against, the Purchase Price, those sums required to satisfy, in full, all liens then encumbering the Property, except that of the *** Debt, as it shall be satisfied in accordance with Section 4.2.11  Seller shall convey fee simple title to the Property to Buyer by the Deed.

 

Section 6.         Buyer’s Inspection.

 

6.1           Document Inspection.  Buyer and Seller acknowledge that Buyer shall inspect the Property and shall examine, review and inspect the Seller Deliveries.  Seller hereby covenants and agrees that Seller shall deliver to Buyer or give Buyer access to all of the Seller Deliveries.  Seller shall not intentionally withhold from Buyer any or all of the Seller Deliveries.  Seller does not make any representation or warranty with respect to the accuracy of any of the Seller Deliveries that have been prepared by third parties, rather than by Seller.  Seller does represent and warrant, that to the best of its knowledge, all of the Seller Deliveries prepared by Seller, itself, are accurate, in all material respects.

 

6.2           Physical Inspection. Subject to the Leases, any restrictions under any restrictions of record and applicable laws, Buyer and its agents shall have the right, from time to time prior to the Closing during normal business hours, to enter upon the Property to examine the same and the condition thereof, and to conduct such surveys and to make such engineering and other inspections, tests and studies as Buyer shall determine to be reasonably necessary, all at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, including, without limitation, a Phase I environmental report and a roof survey and report.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not conduct or allow any physically intrusive testing of, on or under the Property without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Buyer agrees to give Seller reasonable advance notice of such examinations or surveys and to conduct such examinations or surveys during normal business hours to the extent practicable.  Buyer agrees to conduct all

 

14



 

examinations and surveys of the Property in accordance with all applicable laws and in a manner that will not interfere with the operations of Seller or Tenants thereon and will not harm or damage the Property or cause any claim adverse to Seller or any Tenant, and agrees to restore the Property to its condition prior to any such examinations or surveys immediately after conducting the same.  Buyer shall not contact any Tenants or governmental or quasi governmental authorities concerning the Property without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and Seller shall have the right to be present during any such contacts.  Seller acknowledges that Buyer intends to conduct Tenant interviews throughout the Property.  Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds Seller and any agent, advisor, representative, affiliate, employee, director, partner, member, beneficiary, investor, servant, shareholder, subsidiary, trustee or other person or entity acting on Seller’s behalf or otherwise related to or affiliated with Seller (collectively, “Seller Related Parties”) harmless from and against any claims for injury or death to persons, damage to property or other losses, damages (actual, but not consequential) or claims, including, without limitation, claims of any tenant(s) then in possession, and including, without limitation,, in each instance, attorneys’ fees and litigation costs, actually suffered or incurred by any or all of the Seller Related Parties and directly arising out of (i) any action of any person or firm entering the Property on Buyer’s behalf as aforesaid or (ii) any breach by Buyer of its obligations under this Section, which indemnity shall survive the Closing and any termination of this Agreement.  Prior to, and as a condition to any entry on the Property by Buyer or its agents for the purposes set forth in this Section 6.3, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a certificate of insurance evidencing comprehensive general liability (including coverage for contractual indemnities) with a combined single limit of at least $2,000,000.00, in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller, covering any accident or damage arising in connection with Buyer or agents of Buyer on the Property, and naming Seller as an additional insured.  Buyer will provide a copy of any written inspection, test, report or summary to Seller upon Seller’s written request therefor.

 

6.3           Formal Inspection Period.  Buyer’s obligation to close under this Agreement is subject to and conditioned upon Buyer’s investigation and study of and satisfaction with the Property as set forth in this Section 6.  Buyer shall have until 6:00 p.m. E.S.T. on the Inspection Date in which to make such investigations and studies with respect to the Property as Buyer deems appropriate and to terminate this Agreement, by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Agent if Buyer is not, for any reason, satisfied with the Property in which case the Earnest Money shall be returned by Escrow Agent to Buyer without any further action (including, but not limited to, any consent of, or direction from, Seller), and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder except for those obligations of Buyer set forth in Sections 6.3 and 6.5.  If Buyer fails to deliver written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement on or before 6:00 p.m. E.S.T. on the Inspection Date, then Buyer’s termination rights under this Section 6 shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer, the Earnest Money shall be non-refundable (unless Seller defaults as provided herein or unless any conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligation to close, as such conditions precedent are specifically provided under this Agreement, are not satisfied or waived by Buyer), and the parties shall proceed with the transaction pursuant to the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

6.4           Confidentiality.  Buyer and its representatives shall hold in confidence all data and information not available in the public domain (or otherwise made public by any party other than Buyer and its representatives) relating to Seller or its business, whether obtained before or

 

15



 

after the execution and delivery of this Agreement pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement which is incorporated herein and which Buyer hereby reaffirms, subject, however, to the final sentence of Section 18.3.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Buyer or its representatives of this Section 6.5, Seller shall be entitled to all remedies set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach of the Confidentiality Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the Closing and any termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.

 

6.5           Non-Compete.  For a period of *** after the Closing Date, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that neither it, nor its affiliates, shall solicit any Tenants so as to induce such Tenants to lease space within, or to purchase, any other buildings owned by any of Seller or its affiliates.  For purposes of this Section 6.5, the term, “affiliates,” shall mean any person or entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Seller.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this non-compete shall not prevent Seller from responding to any Tenant who requests a proposal from Seller for the lease of space in another building owned by Seller.  The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the Closing.

 

Section 7.         Representations and Warranties.

If Seller so elects to extend the Closing, then Seller shall use its diligent and good faith efforts to cure the inaccuracies noted in the Breach Notice.  In the event Seller so cures such inaccuracy(ies), in full, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  If Seller fails to timely exercise its right to extend the Closing, or if Seller does so extend the Closing, but then fails to cure, in full, the inaccuracies set forth in the Breach Notice, Buyer may either (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which case the Earnest Money, together with interest earned thereon, shall be immediately returned to Buyer and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly survive such termination, or (b) waive such right to terminate (but only with respect to the then-uncured inaccuracies set forth in the Breach Notice) by proceeding with the transaction pursuant to the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement.  In the event Buyer elects option (b) in the preceding sentence the representations and warranties shall be deemed to be automatically amended to reflect the inaccuracies set forth in the Breach Notice.  Notwithstanding and without limiting the foregoing, (i) if any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith are materially false or inaccurate, or Seller is in material breach or default of any of its obligations under this Agreement that survive Closing, and Buyer nonetheless closes the transactions hereunder and purchases the Property, then, subject to (x) and (y) below, Seller shall have no liability or obligation respecting such false or inaccurate representations or warranties or other breach or default (and any cause of action resulting therefrom shall terminate upon the Closing) in the event that either (x) on or prior to Closing, Buyer shall have had knowledge of the false or inaccurate representations or warranties or other breach or default, or (y) the accurate state of facts pertinent to such false or inaccurate representations or warranties or other breach or default was contained, in any of the Seller Deliveries or other written information furnished or made available to or otherwise directly obtained by Buyer, and (ii) to the extent the copies of the Leases, the Guaranties the Service Contracts, the Commission Agreements or any other information actually furnished or made available to or otherwise directly obtained by Buyer with respect to the Property prior to the Closing Date contain provisions or information that are inconsistent with the foregoing representations and warranties, and Buyer nevertheless elects to proceed to close under this Agreement, Seller shall have no liability or obligation respecting such inconsistent representations or warranties (and Buyer shall have no cause of action with respect thereto), and such representations and warranties shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to eliminate such inconsistency and to conform such representations and warranties to such Leases, Guaranties, Service Contracts, Commission Agreement and other written information.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7.3, in the event that, (A) any of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are rendered inaccurate or false, in any way, prior to Closing; (B) Seller fails to completely cure such breach or default prior to Closing; and (C) as a result of (A) and (B), Buyer exercises its right to terminate this Agreement, then Buyer’s Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Buyer.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3 concerning Seller’s obligation to reimburse Buyer shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

7.4           Reaffirmation.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3, at Closing Seller shall be deemed to have reaffirmed that the representations and warranties of Seller in this Section 7 are true and correct, except that Seller shall be deemed to have reaffirmed that those representations

 

20



 

and warranties set forth in Sections 7.1.3, 7.1.8, 7.1.9 and 7.1.13 are true and complete, in all material respects.  At Closing, Buyer shall be deemed to have reaffirmed that the representations and warranties of Buyer in this Section 7 are true and correct.

 

Section 8.         Operations Pending Closing.

 

Seller, at its expense, shall use reasonable efforts to (a) maintain the Property until the Closing or until the termination of this Agreement, whichever is earlier, substantially in the same condition as exists on the Effective Date, and subject to ordinary wear and tear, damage by fire or other casualty and condemnation excepted; and (b) to comply, in all material respects, with, and to enforce, all of the Leases (but without an obligation to file suit against any of the Tenants).  Seller shall deliver to Buyer a copy of any written notice of default delivered by Seller to any Tenant from and after the Effective Date.  After the Effective Date, without Buyer’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (provided, however, Buyer’s consent shall be deemed granted in the event Buyer does not object in writing thereto within five (5) days after Seller requests such consent from Buyer), Seller will not enter into any (a) contract for service to the Property unless it is terminable without penalty on no more than thirty (30) days written notice (except that Seller may enter into any such contract in response to any condition or event which would, in Seller’s good faith determination, endanger the safety or integrity of the Improvements, provided that Buyer shall have no obligation to assume any such contract unless Buyer approves of such contract in writing), or (b) any new lease or any modification, amendment, restatement, termination, or renewal of any Lease except for non-binding letters of understanding, certificates, punch lists and other documents expressly and specifically contemplated by the applicable Lease, provided such Lease was either in effect on or prior to the Effective Date or is otherwise approved by Buyer in accordance with this Section 8, or (c) any agreement pursuant to which Buyer shall be required to pay a leasing brokerage commission to either or both of Seller and a third party in connection with any new lease or the amendment of any Lease in effect on the Effective Date, if such amendment either renews and extends the term of the Lease in effect on the Effective Date or expands the leased premises under such Lease in effect on the Effective Date.  Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer or make available to Buyer a true and complete copy of any item in (a) or (c), and the deal terms for any document described in (b) of the preceding sentence entered into by Seller after the Effective Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the request of Buyer made on or before the Inspection Date, Seller shall terminate any Service Agreement designated by Buyer, as of the Closing Date.  Any Service Agreements which Seller does not request be terminated as described in the previous sentence shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing, to the extent such Service Agreements are assignable.

 

Section 9.         Conditions to Closing.

 

9.1           Buyer’s Conditions Precedent.  Buyer’s obligation to proceed to Closing under this Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent (any or all of which Buyer may elect, in its sole discretion, to waive):

 

(a)                                  Seller shall have performed and satisfied each and all of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement; and

 

21



 

(b)                                 Each and all of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct at the Effective Date and at the Closing Date.

 

(c)                                  Seller shall have delivered to Buyer the Tenant Estoppel Certificates from (i) Tenants representing at least *** of the Tenants who lease ***  or more square feet of the leased rentable square feet of the Property, (ii) Tenants representing at least *** of the Tenants who lease *** square feet of the leased rentable square feet of the Property, and (iii) Tenants representing at least *** of the Tenants who lease less than *** of the leased rentable square feet of the Property, provided that Seller shall be deemed to have delivered satisfactory Tenant Estoppel Certificates so long as the tenant estoppel certificate executed by the Tenant satisfies Tenant’s estoppel certificate requirement under its Lease.  Nevertheless, Seller shall make reasonable efforts to procure an Estoppel Certificate from all Tenants.  Further, any qualification of “to Tenant’s knowledge” (or similar qualification) with respect to any assertion in the Tenant Estoppel Certificate regarding the status of the performance of any of landlord’s obligations under the Lease shall be acceptable.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that, despite Seller’s good faith and reasonable efforts, Seller is unable to obtain a Tenant Estoppel Certificate from any particular Tenant, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to deliver to Buyer on the Closing Date a certificate (a “Seller’s Estoppel Certificate”) in the form attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit N and in such event, Seller shall be deemed to have delivered a Tenant Estoppel Certificate with respect to such Tenant for purposes of satisfying the condition under this Section 9.1.  In addition, Seller shall be released from any liability with respect to such Seller’s Estoppel Certificate upon the sooner to occur of (i) one (1) year following the Closing Date and (ii) the date of delivery to Buyer of a Tenant Estoppel Certificate executed by the Tenant for which Seller has delivered such Seller’s Estoppel Certificate.  Seller shall be required to deliver to Buyer, promptly upon Seller’s receipt thereof, true and complete copies of all Estoppel Certificates delivered by any and all Tenants.

 

(d)                                 The Title Insurer shall later-date the Title Commitments to cover the Closing and the recording of the Deed, and shall issue owner’s policies of title insurance (or a pro forma owner’s policy or a so-called “marked-up” title commitment) to Buyer, naming Buyer as the insured and providing insurance on the Property, in the amount of the Purchase Price, and subject only to the Permitted Title Exceptions, all in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement (the “Title Policies”).  As provided in Section 5, the Title Policies shall include the Endorsements.

 

(e)                                  All Leases for space equal to or greater than *** square feet that are in effect on the Inspection Date with respect to a given Project shall be in full

 

22



 

force and effect on the Closing Date unless such Lease expires during such period; provided, however, in the event that the foregoing condition is not satisfied with respect to one or more Projects, then Seller shall have the right to master lease such space on all of the same terms set forth in the applicable Tenant’s Lease for a period of *** from and after the Closing Date.  If Seller does elect to so master lease any such leased premises, then such master lease arrangement shall permit Buyer to unilaterally terminate any such master lease on an accelerated basis, so as to permit Buyer to lease such leased premises to a third party.  ***

 

In the event any of the foregoing conditions are not satisfied prior to or at the Closing, then subject to Section 7.3 hereof and to the provisions of Section 9.1(e), Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller on the Closing Date and thereafter shall have no obligation to proceed with the Closing, the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned and paid to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall waive or diminish any right or remedy Buyer may have for Seller’s default or breach of this Agreement as set forth in this Agreement.

 

9.2           Seller’s Conditions Precedent.  Seller’s obligation to proceed to Closing under this Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent:

 

(a)                                  Seller receiving all corporate and partnership approvals to complete this transaction on or before the Inspection Date.  In the event this condition is not satisfied on or prior to the Inspection Date, Seller may deliver written notice thereof to Buyer on or before the Inspection Date whereupon this Agreement shall cease and terminate, the Earnest Money shall be returned and paid to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that Seller shall also be required to reimburse Buyer in accordance with the provisions of that certain Access and Indemnification Agreement, dated as of July 27, 2005, by and between Seller and Buyer (the “AIA”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, in the event that *** does not receive its partnership approval to sell the undeveloped Property owned by ***, as identified on Exhibit A (“*** Property”), on or before*** , 2005 Seller shall so advise Buyer, in writing, on or before*** , 2005, whereupon the *** Property shall be excluded from the Property, and the Purchase Price for the undeveloped Property shall be reduced by $***  for the ***  acre parcel and $***  for the ***  acre parcel. If Seller fails to so notify Buyer on or before the Inspection Date, this condition shall be deemed waived.  If the *** Property is excluded from the Property, then Seller shall reimburse Buyer, within ten (10) days of written demand therefor, for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Buyer with respect to its due diligence investigation of and about the *** Property in an amount not to exceed ***  per each parcel comprising the *** Property.

 

23



 

(b)           Buyer shall have performed and satisfied each and all of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement. In the event this condition is not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have no obligation to proceed to Closing and, if Seller delivers written notice to Buyer that the foregoing condition has not been satisfied, this Agreement shall cease and terminate, the Earnest Money shall be returned and paid to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall waive or diminish any right or remedy Seller may have for Buyer’s default or breach of this Agreement.

 

Section 10.                                               Closing.

 

10.1         Time and Place.  Provided that all of the conditions set forth in this Agreement are theretofore fully satisfied or performed, the Closing shall be held in escrow through Escrow Agent, on the Closing Date or such other date that is mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller unless the Closing Date is postponed pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement.

 

10.2         Seller Deliveries.  Seller shall obtain and deliver to Buyer or to Escrow Agent at the Closing the following documents (all of which shall be duly executed, and witnessed and/or notarized as necessary):

(b)           A Non-Foreign Certificate, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit G hereto.

(h)           Such transfer tax, certificate of value or other similar documents customarily required of sellers in the county in which the Property is located.  To the extent that the parties are required to allocate the Purchase Price among Projects for purposes of calculating transfer taxes, the parties shall utilize the allocated values determined by Buyer, except as otherwise

 

24



 

previously agreed between Seller and Buyer (and confirmed via e-mail communication between the parties) with respect to certain of the Projects and the allocated values assigned thereto.

 

(i)            Such further instructions, documents and information, including, but not limited to a Form 1099-S, as Buyer or Title Insurer may reasonably request as necessary to consummate the purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(j)            A notice to send to all Tenants substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (“Tenant Notice Letters”).

 

(k)           A notice to send to all Vendors substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L.

 

(l)            All Tenant Estoppel Certificates received from Tenants.

 

(m)          The Seller Estoppel Certificate, if applicable.

 

(n)           A current rent roll in the same substantive format as set forth in the sample rent roll attached hereto as Exhibit U, but prepared within five (5) days of the Closing Date and certified by Seller to be true, correct and complete, in all material respects.

 

10.3         Buyer Deliveries.  Buyer shall deliver to Seller or Escrow Agent  at Closing the following:

 

(a)           The Purchase Price in immediately available funds, subject to the prorations provided for in this Agreement.

 

(b)           Counterpart originals duly executed (and witnessed and/or notarized as necessary) by Buyer of the Assignment and the Closing Statement.

 

(c)           Such transfer tax, certificate of value or other similar documents customarily required of purchasers in the county in which the Property is located.

 

(d)           Such other documents or instruments that are reasonably necessary to consummate the Closing.

25



 

Section 11.                                               Default and Remedies.

 

11.1         Buyer’s Default.  In the event of a default by Buyer under the terms of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Earnest Money to Seller, and Seller shall, as its sole and exclusive remedy, have the right to retain the Earnest Money for such default of Buyer, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly survive any such termination.  It is hereby agreed that Seller’s damages in the event of a default by Buyer hereunder are uncertain and difficult to ascertain, and that the Earnest Money constitutes a reasonable liquidation of such damages and is intended not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages.  This provision shall expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

11.2         Seller’s Default.  Subject to Section 7.3, in the event of a pre-Closing default by Seller under the terms of this Agreement which is not cured by Seller, prior to or on the Closing Date and as provided hereunder, Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies hereunder shall be to either (a) terminate this Agreement whereupon Buyer will receive a refund of the Earnest Money from Escrow Agent and neither party hereto shall have any further obligation or liability to the other (except with respect to those provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive the termination hereof), Buyer hereby waiving any right or claim to damages for Seller’s breach, or (b) seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement (but no other action, for damages or otherwise, shall be permitted); provided that any action by Buyer for specific performance must be filed, if at all, within thirty (30) days of Seller’s default, and the failure to file within such period shall constitute a waiver by Buyer of such right and remedy.  If Buyer shall not have filed an action for specific performance within the aforementioned time period or so notified Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement, Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement in accordance with clause (a) above.

 

11.3         Limitation on Liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any documents executed in connection herewith, if, following the Closing, Buyer first learns that any representations or warranties made by Seller (as may be amended pursuant to Section 7.3) were materially inaccurate as of the Effective Date or the Closing Date or that Seller failed to satisfy any of its covenants or breached any of its indemnification or other obligations (whether express or implied) of Seller under this Agreement (or any document or certificate executed or delivered in connection herewith), then Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all damages (actual, but not consequential) actually incurred by Buyer as a result thereof, up to a maximum aggregate amount for all such failures and breaches of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), provided that (i) Buyer notifies Seller in writing within twelve (12) months from the Closing Date of such breach or inaccuracy and Buyer’s damages suffered in connection therewith, and (ii) Seller shall in no event be responsible for any consequential or punitive damages resulting from such inaccuracy.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall have no right to recover from, or proceed against, Seller by reason of any of the representations, warranties, indemnifications, covenants or other obligations (whether express or implied) of Seller under this Agreement (or any document or certificate executed or delivered in connection herewith) upon the expiration of such twelve (12) month period except to the extent Buyer has so notified Seller in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within such twelve (12) month period.  No shareholder or agent of Seller, nor any Seller Related Parties, shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with this Agreement or any agreement made or entered into under or pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, or any amendment or amendments to any of the foregoing made at

 

26



 

any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, except in the event of fraud, and Buyer and its successors and assigns and, without limitation, all other persons and entities, shall look solely to Seller’s assets for the payment of any claim or for any performance, and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability, except in the event of fraud.  The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing or sooner termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 12.                                               Condemnation or Destruction.

 

12.1         Condemnation.  If, prior to the Closing, all or any material part of a given Building of the Property is subject to a bona fide threat of condemnation by a body having the power of eminent domain, or is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (in either case, “Condemnation”), or sale in lieu thereof, then Buyer, by written notice to Seller, to be received within thirty (30) calendar days of Buyer’s receiving Seller’s written notice of such threat, condemnation or taking, or by the Closing Date, whichever is earlier, may elect to exclude from this Agreement those Projects with respect to which a material part is subject to Condemnation.

 

12.2         Damage or Destruction.  If, prior to the Closing, all or any material part of a given Building of the Property is damaged or destroyed by any cause (“Damage”), Seller agrees to give Buyer written notice of such occurrence and the nature and extent of such damage and destruction, and Buyer, by written notice to Seller, to be received within thirty (30) calendar days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s written notice of such damage or destruction, or by the Closing Date, whichever is earlier, may elect to exclude from this Agreement those Projects with respect to which a material part is subject to Damage.

 

12.3         Termination.  If ten percent (10%) or more of the Property has a material Condemnation or Destruction then Buyer, by written notice to Seller, to be received within thirty (30) calendar days of Buyer’s written notice of such Condemnation, Damage or by the Closing Date whichever is earlier, may elect to terminate this Agreement.  If this Agreement is terminated as a result of these provisions, Buyer shall be entitled to receive an immediate refund of the Earnest Money from Escrow Agent, whereupon the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly survive any such termination.

 

12.4         Deletion.  If Buyer elects to exclude any Projects from this Agreement pursuant to either 12.1 or 12.2, as the case may be, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the allocable portion thereof that applies to the portion of the Property so excluded from this Agreement, and upon which allocation Seller and Buyer mutually and reasonably agree.

 

12.5         Awards and Proceeds.  If Buyer does not elect, or is not entitled to, to terminate this Agreement or to exclude the affected portion of the Property from this Agreement following any notice of a Condemnation or notice of Damage to the Property, as provided above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the conveyance of the Property contemplated herein, less any interest taken by Condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustments, except as set forth in the succeeding sentence.  At the Closing, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any awards, payments or insurance proceeds available to Seller or in which Seller has an interest for the damage to, or diminution in value of, the Property that is the subject of Condemnation or

 

27



 

Damage, as the case may be, and that have been or may thereafter be made for any such Condemnation, sale in lieu thereof or Damage, to the extent such awards, payments or proceeds shall not have theretofore been used for restoration of the Property; provided, however, that the performance of any such pre-Closing restoration shall be subject to Buyer’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Additionally, at Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with a credit in the amount of any deductibles due under any applicable insurance policies for any portion of the Property that is the subject of Damage.  Furthermore, Seller shall fully cooperate with Buyer in the adjustment and settlement of any insurance claim.  The proceeds and benefits under any rent loss or business interruption policies attributable to the period following the Closing shall likewise be transferred and paid over (and, if applicable, likewise credited on an interim basis) to Buyer.  The provisions of this Section 12.5 shall survive the Closing.

 

12.6         Definition of Material.  For purposes of this Section 12, “material” shall mean, as to a given Building or parcel of vacant Land, as the case may be, (a) having a cost to repair or replace that exceeds twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Building and the Land upon which it is located, or such parcel of vacant Land, as the case may be, and upon which allocation Seller and Buyer mutually agree, or (b) having incurred such Damage or Condemnation as shall preclude such Building’s or vacant Land parcel’s being restored to a condition (i) that would be, when restored, substantially comparable to the condition that existed on the Effective Date and (ii) that would comply, when restored, with all applicable laws and regulations, or (c) having incurred such Damage or Condemnation as gives rise to the rights of any Tenants to terminate their respective Leases.

 

Section 13.                                               Assignment by Buyer.

 

The terms, conditions and covenants of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective nominees, successors, beneficiaries and assigns; provided, however, that Seller may assign its rights under this agreement only if and to the extent required to enable Seller to accomplish an Exchange (as defined below).  Buyer may assign all or any of its right, title and interest under this Agreement to (i) any third party intermediary (an “Intermediary”) in connection with a tax-deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (an “Exchange”), (ii) First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“First Industrial”), or to any corporate, partnership or limited liability company entity affiliated with, or related to, First Industrial (any such entity, an “Affiliate”), or (iii) any corporate, partnership or limited liability company entity in which First Industrial or an Affiliate is a partner, co-venturer, shareholder or member (any such entity, a “Venture Partner”).  No such assignee shall accrue any obligations or liabilities hereunder until the effective date of such assignment.  In addition to its right of assignment, Buyer shall also have the right, exercisable prior to Closing with notice to Seller at least three (3) business days prior to Closing, to designate any Affiliate, Venture Partner or Intermediary, as the grantee or transferee of any or all of the conveyances, transfers and assignments to be made by Seller at Closing hereunder, independent of, or in addition to, any assignment of this Agreement.  In the event of an assignment of this Agreement by Buyer, its assignee shall be deemed to be the Buyer hereunder for all purposes hereof, and shall have all rights of Buyer hereunder.  In the event that an Affiliate or Venture Partner shall be designated as a transferee hereunder, that transferee shall have the benefit of all of the representations, warranties and rights which, by the terms of this

 

28



 

Agreement, are incorporated herein or relate to the conveyance in question, including, without limitation, all guaranties and indemnities specifically granted to Buyer hereunder or in connection herewith.  Notwithstanding any transfer, Buyer shall remain fully liable under this Agreement.

 

Section 14.                                               Deletion Due to Environmental Conditions.

 

Seller acknowledges that Buyer shall perform so-called “Phase II” environmental assessments (“Phase II Assessment”) at those *** Projects and parcels of undeveloped Property listed on Exhibit “V” attached hereto on or before September 27, 2005, and if the results of any Phase II Assessment indicate or evidence any or all of (x) a Release (as defined below) having occurred at any Project; (y) a Hazardous Condition (as defined below) existing at any Project; or (z) any violation of environmental law existing at any Project (in each instance, an “Environmental Condition”), then the Seller and Buyer shall thereafter negotiate, promptly and in good faith, during any period remaining up to and including the Closing Date for a mutually satisfactory resolution that shall address all Environmental Conditions.  Buyer acknowledges that, if Seller and Buyer reach agreement upon a resolution to address an Environmental Condition at one or more Projects, such agreement may involve a delay of the closing on the applicable Project so as to enable Seller to perform, or cause to be performed, any necessary remediation.  If, despite their respective reasonable efforts, Seller and Buyer fail to agree upon a resolution to address all Environmental Conditions on or before the Inspection Date, then Buyer shall have the right, on or before the Inspection Date, to either (a) proceed to close its acquisition of the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; or (b) elect to exclude from this Agreement those Projects with respect to which there are unresolved Environmental Conditions (the “Environmental Deleted Property”), in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the allocable portion thereof, attributable to the Environmental Deleted Property on Exhibit “V”, and Buyer shall otherwise proceed to close hereunder with respect to all of the Property except the Environmental Deleted Property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing deletion right, however, in no event may there be more than *** Projects that constitute Environmental Deleted Property.  Each of Seller and Buyer shall pay 50% of the actual, third party costs that Buyer incurs to perform the Phase II Assessments at all *** properties identified on Exhibit “V.”  Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Seller’s 50% of such costs within ten (10) days after Buyer delivers to Seller reasonable written evidence of the costs for which Buyer is seeking reimbursement.  The foregoing reimbursement obligation shall survive the Closing.

 

For purposes of this Section 14, the following terms shall have the following definitions:

 

(i)            Hazardous Conditions” refers to the existence or presence of any Hazardous Materials on, in, under, at, near or about the Property or any portion thereof (including groundwater) in violation of state or federal environmental laws, regulations, or statutes (collectively, “Environmental Laws”) and that is required by such Environmental Laws to be cleaned up or remediated.

 

(ii)           Hazardous Material” or “Hazardous Materials” shall mean:  any chemical, pollutant, contaminant, pesticide, petroleum or petroleum product or by product, radioactive substance, solid waste (hazardous or extremely hazardous), special,

 

29



 

dangerous or toxic waste, substance, chemical or material regulated, listed, limited or prohibited under any environmental law, including without limitation:  (A) asbestos, asbestos-containing material, presumed asbestos-containing material, polychlorinated biphenyls (“PCBs”), solvents and waste oil; (B) any “hazardous substance” as defined under CERCLA; and (C) any “hazardous waste” as defined under RCRA.

 

(iii)          Release” means any discharge, emission, escape, injection, leak, migration, spill, dumping or other release of any Hazardous Material into the environment, whether or not notification or reporting to any governmental agency was or is required in violation of any Environmental Laws and which requires clean-up or remediation.

 

Section 15.                                               Brokers and Brokers’ Commissions.

 

Buyer and Seller each warrant and represent to the other that, other than CB Richard Ellis, Inc. (“Seller’s Broker”), neither party has employed any other real estate broker or agent in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby. In the event the Closing is consummated, Seller shall pay a  commission to Seller’s Broker  pursuant to a separate agreement.  Such real estate commission shall be paid in cash at Closing.  Each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any loss or cost suffered or incurred by it as a result of the other’s representation herein being untrue.  This Section 15 shall expressly survive the Closing hereunder.

 

Section 16.                                               Notices.

 

Wherever any notice or other communication is required or permitted hereunder, such notice or other communication shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand, by nationally-recognized overnight express delivery service, by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by facsimile with confirmation to the addresses set out below or at such other addresses as are specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith:

Section 19.                                               Miscellaneous Agreements.

 

19.1         *** Annexation Agreement.  Buyer acknowledges that Seller has advised Buyer that, as of the Effective Date, Seller is negotiating with the City of *** for the annexation of multiple parcels of property that Seller owns, and among the parcels that may be annexed to the *** are those commonly known as ***  and*** .  Seller has further advised Buyer that the annexation process will not be completed by Closing.  Prior to the Closing Date, Seller agrees to make available to Buyer true, complete and correct copies of any and all documentation, of any nature (e.g. drafts of annexation agreement, City resolution or ordinance, correspondence, minutes of meetings) relating to such pending annexation in Seller’s possession.  If Buyer does not terminate this Agreement on or before the Inspection Date, Buyer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Seller (but without any out-of-pocket cost to Buyer) with respect to the consummation of the annexation and to allow the Property known as ***  and *** to be annexed into the*** .  Seller shall be solely responsible for any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such annexation process.  Seller hereby agrees to use good faith and diligent efforts to complete the annexation process as expeditiously as possible.  Seller shall keep Buyer fully and currently informed and advised with respect to the status of such annexation.  The provisions of this Section 19.1 shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any conveyancing documents delivered at Closing.

 

19.2         *** Expansion Parcel.  Buyer acknowledges that the Property known as *** contains approximately *** acres of expansion land (“*** Land”).  The *** Land is depicted on Exhibit Q attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.  Seller has advised Buyer that *** corporation, as tenant and*** , Inc., as subtenant, in the Building commonly known as *** (collectively, “*** Tenant”) has an option, in its existing Lease, to expand (or cause an expansion of) that Building.  If the *** Tenant were to exercise its expansion option, the expansion would be constructed on the *** Land.  Seller has advised Buyer that Seller intends to contact the *** Tenant to seek a waiver of its expansion option (the “*** Waiver”).  At Closing, Buyer shall grant to Seller an option to purchase from Buyer the *** Land for a purchase price of*** , which option shall automatically expire on the first to occur of (x) the *** day after the Closing, if Seller fails to procure the *** Waiver on or before that *** day; or (y) if Seller procures the *** Waiver on or before the *** day after Closing, then on the first anniversary of the Closing, and which option shall be assignable (the “Purchase Option”).  If Seller fails to procure the *** Waiver prior to Closing, Seller may continue to attempt to procure *** Waiver during the *** day period after the Closing, but in that event, Seller shall keep Buyer completely and fully apprised of any and all discussions with the *** Tenant and Seller shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to avoid interfering with the relationship between Buyer and the *** Tenant.  Seller shall provide Buyer with ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its exercise of the Purchase Option.  It shall be a condition precedent to Seller’s consummation of its acquisition of the *** Land that Buyer be able to transfer and convey the *** Land as a separate and distinct legal parcel, in compliance with any and all plat act and/or subdivision laws, ordinances and regulations (the “Subdivision Condition”).  If, at the time that Seller exercises the Purchase Option, the *** Land may not be freely transferred and conveyed due to its failure to satisfy the Subdivision Condition, then Seller shall be solely responsible, at Seller’s sole cost, to take whatever actions are required in order to satisfy the Subdivision Condition.  Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller’s efforts to satisfy the Subdivision Condition, but Buyer shall not be required to incur any liability or obligation in order to so cooperate except to execute any

 

35



 

and all necessary documents to satisfy the Subdivision Conditions.  Seller may not, however, legally subdivide the *** Land from *** Drive except on a conditional basis such that the formal subdivision is not effective until the date on which Buyer conveys the *** Land to Seller.  Buyer shall have the rights to reasonably approve any plat of subdivision or comparable documentation required to satisfy the Subdivision Condition.  Seller shall have thirty (30) days after providing notice of its desire to exercise the Purchase Option to Buyer to complete its due diligence on the ***  Land and, in such case, Seller’s due diligence investigations shall be conducted pursuant to the same standards and obligations (including, but not limited to, insurance coverage and indemnification) as are imposed under this Agreement with respect to Buyer’s due diligence investigations of and about the Property.  *** Seller shall have the right to terminate the exercise of its Purchase Option at any time and for any reason during its thirty (30) day due diligence period.  If Seller does not terminate its exercise of its Purchase Option to purchase prior to the expiration of its due diligence period, then Buyer and Seller shall close on the *** Land within ten (10) days after the expiration of the due diligence period.  Seller shall acquire the *** Land on a strictly “as-is, where-is” basis, without any representation or warranty, of any nature whatsoever, from Buyer except those normal and customary representations and warranties contained in any of the closing documents.  Buyer shall  not be required to provide Seller with any title insurance or any survey of the *** Land.   Buyer shall deliver at closing a limited warranty deed conveying the *** Land to Seller, subject to all of the same Permitted Title Exceptions that Buyer accepted when it acquired the *** Land from Seller, along with such other closing documents as are customary for similar type closings (but without any requirement that Buyer provide any representation or warranty, of any nature, or undertake any liability to or for the benefit of, Seller except those customarily given and similar to those provided in this Agreement), and Seller shall deliver the purchase price for the *** Land to Buyer via federal wire transfer and subject to a real estate tax proration based on land values only for the *** Land, calculated in accordance with the same method pursuant to which the real estate taxes were prorated under this Agreement.  Seller shall also be responsible, at Seller’s sole cost, to cause a real estate tax division to occur, as quickly as is possible following the closing of the conveyance of the *** Land to Seller, between the *** Land and *** , so as to cause each of the *** Land and *** to have a separate and distinct tax identification number.  The provisions of this Section 19.2 shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into any conveyancing documents delivered at Closing.

 

19.3         Form 8-K Filings.  Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer, without third party expense to Seller, before and after Closing in providing such information about the Property as Buyer may reasonably require to prepare its Form 8-K filings and such other reports and filings as may be required by any governmental authority.

 

19.4         Pending Land Sale Property.  Buyer and Seller acknowledges that Seller has advised Buyer that Seller is negotiating the terms of, or has entered into, contracts for the sale of some of the undeveloped Property, as more specifically identified on Exhibit P attached hereto (“Pending Land Sale Property”).  Five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer, in writing, if any of the Pending Land Sale Property is to be excluded from the Closing, whereupon (i) the Purchase Price for the undeveloped property shall be reduced by an amount equal to the release price for such Pending Land Sale Property as set forth in Exhibit P; and (ii) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for all of the reasonable, documented third party costs and expenses that Buyer incurred in order to

 

36



 

perform its due diligence investigations at, to, in and about the Pending Land Sale Property that has been excluded from this Agreement in an amount*** .  Such reimbursement obligation shall survive the Closing.  If Seller fails to timely so notify Buyer of any exclusion of the Pending Land Sale Property, then Seller shall convey the Pending Land Sale Property to Buyer at Closing.

 

19.5         *** Property.  Seller has advised Buyer that *** (“*** “), a Tenant at the portion of the Property commonly known as *** (“*** Property”), has, under the terms of its respective Lease, an option to acquire the *** Property.  *** has advised Seller that *** has exercised its purchase option and, therefore, *** and Seller are currently negotiating the terms and provisions of a purchase and sale contract.  In the event that, prior to Closing, Seller and *** enter into a binding contract, free of contingencies, for the sale of the *** Property (the “*** Contract”), then Seller may exclude the *** Property from this Agreement, by so advising Buyer, in writing, prior to the Closing Date whereupon:  (a) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by $*** , and (b) Seller shall reimburse Buyer, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for all of the reasonable, documented third party costs and expenses that Buyer incurred in order to perform its due diligence investigations at, to, in and about the *** Property in an amount*** .  Such reimbursement obligation shall survive the Closing.  If Seller and *** fail to enter into the *** Contract prior to Closing, then, at Closing, Seller shall convey the *** Property to Buyer.

 

19.6         Right of First Refusals.  Buyer and Seller acknowledge that Seller has advised Buyer that certain Leases contain a right of first refusal to purchase a Project, as more specifically identified on Exhibit R attached hereto (“Refusal Property”).  Upon the expiration of each refusal period or written confirmation that such Tenant does not intend to exercise its right of first refusal to purchase its respective Project, Seller agrees to immediately notify Buyer, in writing, if any of the Tenants of the Refusal Property timely exercises its right to purchase its respective Project.  If any Tenant timely exercises its right of refusal, then the relevant Refusal Property shall be deleted from this Agreement, whereupon the Purchase Price for the developed Property shall be reduced by an amount equal to the release price for such Refusal Property as set forth in Exhibit R; and (ii) Seller shall reimburse Buyer, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for all of the reasonable, documented third-party costs and expenses that Buyer incurred in order to perform its due diligence investigations at, to, in and about each Refusal Property that has been excluded from this Agreement in an amount not to exceed *** per individual Refusal Property.  Such reimbursement obligation shall survive the Closing.

 

19.7         Post Closing Tenant Finish.  Buyer and Seller acknowledge that Seller may be in the process of completing tenant finish work at certain of the Projects as of the Closing Date (“Incomplete TI Work”).  On the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with a complete and reasonably detailed list of all such Incomplete TI Work.  Buyer agrees that Seller shall complete all such Incomplete TI Work.  Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, as promptly as is reasonably possible after the Closing, Seller shall complete (or cause to be completed) all Incomplete TI Work in accordance with (a) all applicable provisions and requirements of the respective Lease under which performance of the Incomplete TI Work is required and (b) all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations of any Governmental Authority.  Seller further covenants and agrees that it shall use good faith and diligent efforts to coordinate the performance of all Incomplete TI Work (i) in a manner reasonably designed to minimize interference with the occupancies and business operations of those Tenants for whose benefit

 

37



 

Incomplete TI Work is being performed, and (ii) with Buyer.  If any of such Incomplete TI Work is required to be paid by Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then Seller shall submit to Buyer, when and as received by Seller, the invoices and billing statements for that portion of the Incomplete TI Work for which Buyer is responsible and Buyer shall promptly pay such invoices and bills upon receipt.  The provisions of this Section 19.7 shall survive the Closing.

 

19.8         *** Condemnation.  Seller has advised Buyer that the Project commonly known as*** (“*** Project”) is improved with a single Building containing approximately ***  rentable square feet.  Currently, there are *** Tenants in that Building, *** (“*** “) and *** (“*** “).  *** leases approximately ***  square feet of the Building and its existing Lease expires on*** , 2005.  *** desires to renew its Lease for an additional term, provided that *** is able to lease the entire Building and that Seller, as landlord, provides alternative replacement parking for the *** parking spaces lost as a result of the *** Condemnation, as described and defined below (collectively, “*** ‘s Conditions”).  Seller has advised Buyer that Seller is currently attempting to satisfy *** ‘s Conditions and, in that regard, Seller has reached an oral agreement with*** , pursuant to which *** has agreed that Seller may relocate *** to another building owned by Seller or one of its affiliates; and Seller has entered into a contract to acquire a vacant parcel of land that is comprised of approximately ***  acres and is contiguous a portion of the *** Project  (“Parking Parcel”).  Seller contemplates that it shall construct a surface parking lot on approximately one (1) acre of the Parking Parcel.

 

Seller has further advised Buyer that in 2004, the *** Department of Transportation (“DOT”) filed a condemnation action against Seller and the *** Project pursuant to which DOT sought to acquire a portion of the *** upon which *** parking spaces are located (the “*** Condemnation”), Seller has advised Buyer that DOT has, in fact, acquired fee simple title to the portion of the *** Project that it sought to acquire through the *** Condemnation, and in connection therewith, DOT paid Seller consideration of*** ; however, Seller has filed an action against DOT seeking approximately ***  in additional compensation and damages (“Seller’s Pending DOT Litigation”).  Seller shall retain all rights with respect to, and any entitlements in connection with, Seller’s Pending DOT Litigation.  Buyer shall have no right, title or obligation in or with respect to Seller’s Pending DOT Litigation.

 

Seller and Buyer have agreed to delay the Closing of Buyer’s acquisition of the *** Project so as to provide Seller with an opportunity to satisfy*** ‘s Conditions, and to consummate Seller’s acquisition of the Parking Parcel.  Seller shall use its reasonable, diligent and good faith efforts to satisfy*** ‘s Conditions and to consummate its acquisition of the Parking Parcel within *** days after the Closing Date.  Seller shall keep Buyer regularly apprised, in writing, of the status of Seller’s efforts to satisfy*** ‘s conditions and to acquire the Parking Parcel.  Seller shall not execute any such Lease amendment with *** unless and until the Lease amendment is approved by Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of any and all costs and expenses incurred to satisfy*** ‘s Conditions and to consummate its acquisition of the Parking Parcel.  Seller may relocate *** to any other property that Seller desires and need not seek Buyer’s approval of the replacement leased premises.

 

It shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to acquire the *** Project that all of the following are satisfied:

 

38



 

(i)            Seller and *** have executed and delivered to one another an amendment to*** ‘s existing Lease pursuant to which, among other things, *** leases the entire *** Project and such amendment is approved by Buyer, as provided above;

 

(ii)           Seller and *** shall have executed and delivered to one another an agreement pursuant to which *** agrees that its Lease at the *** Project is terminated on an accelerated basis;

 

(iii)          Seller has consummated its acquisition of the Parking Parcel;

 

(iv)          Seller has improved the Parking Parcel by constructing and installing thereon (in a location, design and configuration reasonably approved by Buyer) a surface parking lot, striped to accommodate vehicular parking and providing sufficient parking to satisfy any parking requirements imposed under*** ‘s Lease amendment (the “Parking Lot”).  Seller shall construct the Parking Lot at Seller’s sole expense and in accordance with all applicable requirements of all Governmental Authorities.

 

(v)           Seller procures and delivers to Buyer a Tenant Estoppel from*** , confirming with specificity, that the *** Lease amendment is in full force and effect and that*** ‘s Conditions have been satisfied;

 

(vi)          Seller procures and delivers to Buyer a Survey of the aggregate parcel created by combining the *** Project and the Parking Parcel (the “Combined Project”); and

 

(vii)         The Title Insurer shall have committed to Buyer to issue to Buyer an owner’s policy of title insurance, insuring Buyer’s interest in the Combined Project, in the amount of $*** , and subject only to (A) the Permitted Exceptions and (B) the issuance of the Endorsements.

 

The items described in (i) through (vii) are collectively referred to as the “*** Closing Conditions.”  When Seller has satisfied the *** Closing Conditions, Seller shall so advise Buyer, in writing (“*** Satisfaction Notice”), and within ten (10) business days after Seller delivers the *** Satisfaction Notice, but on a date mutually and reasonably acceptable to Seller and Buyer, Seller and Buyer shall proceed to consummate the sale and conveyance to Buyer of the Combined Project for the allocated value assigned to the *** Project, as mutually and reasonably determined by Seller and Buyer, and pursuant to, and subject to, all of the same terms, conditions, requirements and procedures imposed under this Agreement with respect to the remainder of the Property.  The provisions of this Section 19.8 shall survive the Closing (with respect to the remainder of the Property) and shall not merge into any conveyancing documents delivered at that Closing.

 

19.9         *** Tornado Damage.  Seller has advised Buyer that, in mid-August, 2005, the Project commonly known as *** (the “*** Project”) in *** was damaged by a tornado.  Among the repairs required at the *** Project are water extraction and drying, roof repairs (as the roof was separated from the deck in numerous locations), mechanical repairs to the HVAC system and replacement of ceiling tiles and cove base (collectively, “*** Repairs”).  Seller has tendered a claim to its property insurer.  Seller hereby covenants and agrees that it shall complete all *** Repairs, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, prior to Closing.  Seller has advised Buyer that none of

 

39



 

the Leases for the *** Project have been terminated or rendered terminable as a result of the tornado damage.  Seller further covenants and agrees that Seller shall deliver to Buyer Tenant Estoppels from the Tenants at the *** Project that include a specific confirmation that Seller has completed the *** Repairs for which Seller, as landlord, is responsible pursuant to each Tenant’s respective Lease requirements.

 

19.10       Tenants and Rights of First Offer.  Seller has advised Buyer that *** Tenants have rights of first offer (“ROFO”) to acquire the Building in which their respective leased premises are located.  Those Tenants are:  *** , leasing space at the Project commonly known as*** (“*** “);*** , leasing space at the Project commonly known as*** (“*** “);*** , leasing space in the *** Property; and *** (“*** “), leasing space at the Project commonly known as ***.  Of these Tenants, *** did exercise its ROFO and, as provided in Section 19.5, Seller and *** are currently negotiating the terms of the *** Contract.  Seller has delivered to Buyer letters from *** and*** , confirming that each of them waives its ROFO.  Seller has advised Buyer that *** failed to timely respond to the ROFO notice that Seller delivered to *** and, therefore, *** has automatically waived its ROFO; however, Seller shall make reasonable efforts to procure from *** a written confirmation of*** ‘s waiver of its ROFO.

 

Seller has advised Buyer that, regardless of (a) the allocations of the Purchase Price upon which Seller and Buyer agree, and (b) the time frames established under this Agreement, Seller does not currently believe that the respective terms of the Leases with*** , *** and *** will require that Seller once again deliver a ROFO notice to any or all of*** , *** and*** .  In the event, however, that Seller determines that Seller shall, in fact, be required to resubmit a ROFO notice to any or all of*** , *** and *** in order to comply with the respective terms of their Leases, Seller shall so advise Buyer, in writing, on or before*** , 2005, and Seller shall then promptly resubmit such ROFO notice as is required in order to ensure compliance with the terms of the applicable Leases.  If, following any such resubmission of a ROFO notice to any or all of*** , *** and*** , as the case may be, one or more of them timely exercises its respective ROFO, then Seller shall immediately so advise Buyer, in writing, whereupon the Project(s) with respect to which the ROFO is timely exercised shall be deleted from this Agreement and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted by deducting from it the allocated value assigned to such deleted Project(s) pursuant to Seller’s and Buyer’s mutual and reasonably determination; and further, Seller shall be obligated to reimburse Buyer, within ten (10) days after Buyer’s delivery of written demand therefor for all of the reasonable, documented third party costs and expenses that Buyer incurred in order to perform its due diligence investigation at, to, in and about the Project(s) being deleted from this Agreement pursuant to this Section 19.10, but up to a maximum amount of ***  per Project.  Such reimbursement obligation shall survive the Closing.  If Seller fails to advise Buyer pursuant to the immediately preceding two (2) sentences, then, on the Closing Date, Seller shall convey to Buyer (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) all of the Projects in which*** , *** and *** are Tenants.

 

19.11       Easement Agreement.  Those Projects assigned Assets Numbers 306, 307 and 308, all in Hamilton County, Ohio, are encumbered by a certain Third Amendment to Easement Agreement recorded on June 3, 1996, in O.R. Volume 7068, page 34 and re-recorded on December 12, 1997, in O.R. Volume 7520, page 1113 (the “Easement Agreement”).  The provisions of the Easement Agreement contemplate that (a) an owner’s association will have been formed, (b) such owners’ association will maintain and repair the common areas described

in the Easement Agreement, and (c) such owners’ association may levy assessments against the owners of those properties encumbered by the Easement Agreement.  Seller has advised Buyer that, to Seller’s knowledge, no owners’ association has been formed and Seller has never received a billing statement for any assessments due in connection with the maintenance and repair of common areas under the Easement Agreement.  Seller has further advised Buyer that (i) to Seller’s knowledge, there are no common areas within the real properties that are encumbered by the Easement Agreement that would be maintained by an owners’ association; (ii) there are no shared roads used in common by Seller’s Projects and those of the other properties encumbered by the Easement Agreement; and (iii) to Seller’s knowledge, Enterprise Drive is a publicly dedicated road, as reflected in Plat Book 348, Page 64.

 

19.12       Additional Consideration Owed by Seller to *** Investment Company.  Seller has advised Buyer that, when Seller acquired the land upon which certain of the Projects located in *** were constructed (Assets Nos. 202 and 204) from *** Investment Company (““), Seller agreed to pay to *** certain additional future consideration for such land (the “Land”), based upon Seller’s development of the *** Land and the extent to which those buildings that Seller constructs and develops on the *** Land are built out and improved as office space.  Seller has further advised Buyer that such obligation to pay additional consideration to *** is purely a contractual obligation between Seller and ***; the obligation does not encumber or run with the *** Land; and the obligation shall not be binding upon Buyer, its successors and assigns.  The parties acknowledge, however, that those buildings constructed on the *** Land are not yet entirely improved, built out and finished; as a result, additional office-based tenant improvements and finishes may be constructed and installed, by Buyer, on a post-Closing basis.  Buyer hereby covenants and agrees that Buyer shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to promptly advise Seller, in writing, from time to time after Closing, when and as Buyer completes the installation and construction of tenant improvements and finishes that constitute office space in either or both of Assets Nos.*** .  Seller is and shall remain solely and exclusively responsible for the timely payment, in full, of any and all additional consideration owed to *** as a result of, or due to, the construction and installation, in either or both of Assets Nos.*** , of tenant improvements and build out designed to create office space (“Office Improvements Consideration”), whether such construction and installation of office improvements occurs prior to, or subsequent to, Closing.  Seller hereby indemnifies, defends and holds Buyer, its members, and the successors and assigns of Buyer and its members (collectively, “*** Indemnified Parties”), harmless from and against any and all claims, damages (actual, but not consequential), losses, causes of action, judgments, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, court costs and attorneys’ reasonable fees) actually suffered or incurred by any or all of the *** Indemnified Parties as a direct result of Seller’s failure to timely pay to*** , at any time or from time to time, any or all of the Office Improvements Consideration.  The foregoing indemnity shall not apply with respect to any Office Improvements Consideration due and owing to *** solely and directly as a result of, or in connection with, improvements about which Buyer fails to notify Seller, as contemplated above.  The provisions of this Section 19.2 shall survive the Closing and shall not be subject to, or included within, the monetary limitation imposed under Section 11.3.

 

19.13       Potential Acquisition of Membership Interests.  Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that, prior to Closing and upon Buyer’s request and cost, Seller shall transfer and convey those of the Projects located in Ohio to a newly created Delaware limited liability

company (“Newco”) in which the initial member(s) shall be that Seller entity that currently holds fee simple title to the Ohio Projects.  In that event, then at Closing, Buyer shall acquire the Ohio projects by an assignment of one hundred percent (100%) of the membership interests in Newco.  The form and substance of the document by which such membership interests are transferred and conveyed to Buyer shall be mutually and reasonably acceptable to Seller and Buyer and shall, among other things, include an indemnity from Newco’s member(s) for the benefit of Buyer, with respect to any liabilities and obligations that Newco incurs or for which it becomes responsible due to the actions of Seller’s Newco members prior to the Closing Date and an indemnity from Newco’s transferee member(s) for the benefit of Seller with respect to any liabilities and obligations that Newco incurs or for which it becomes responsible after the Closing Date.  In light of the parties’ agreement, as set forth in this Agreement, that Seller shall pay all transfer taxes imposed in connection with the fee simple transfer of the Property to Buyer, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that it shall remain liable for the payment of any transfer taxes (in the amount it would have paid under this Agreement absent a transfer to Newco), that may ultimately be imposed in connection with Buyer’s acquisition of the Ohio Projects in the event that, following the Closing, any governmental authority having jurisdiction over any or all of the Ohio Projects successfully challenges the means by which Buyer acquires the Ohio Projects without having paid transfer taxes; provided, however, that if Buyer wishes to contest any such challenge by the governmental authority, Buyer shall be solely responsible for any costs and expenses incurred by Seller in connection with such contest (although Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in its pursuit of such contest, but without any out-of-pocket expense to Seller).  The provisions of the preceding sentence shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into the conveying documents delivered at Closing.

 

19.14       ().  *** (“*** “) is a tenant in the Projects  commonly known as*** , in *** (the “*** Projects”).  Pursuant to Section 16.14 of ***  lease for *** (the “*** Lease”), Seller, as landlord, constructed certain Parking Improvements (as defined in the ***  Lease) at ***  expense.  Those Parking Improvements involved the creation of an off-site asphalt-saved parking lot on property owned by an affiliate of the Seller entity that is the landlord under the *** (the “Parking Owner”); and in order for vehicles to travel between the Parking Improvements and a publicly dedicated road, the vehicles must travel across and over a private road located on a parcel that is owned by yet another affiliate of the Seller entity that owns the *** Projects (the “Access Parcel”).  As a result, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to Closing, Seller shall cause (a) the Parking Owner to enter into a lease with Buyer, on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Buyer, pursuant to which the Parking Owner leases the Parking Improvements to Buyer for the duration of the term of the leases into which *** has entered for the *** Projects (collectively, the “*** Leases”), including any renewals and extensions of either or both of the *** Leases (the “Parking Lease”) so as to ensure that Buyer, as successor landlord under the *** Leases, is able to comply with its obligations to make the Parking Improvements available to*** .  *** ; and (b) the owner of the Access Parcel (the “Access Owner”) to grant to Buyer a nonexclusive easement of ingress, egress and access over, along and through the Access Parcel so as to provide a means of access to, from and between the Parking Improvements and a publicly dedicated street (the “Access Easement”).  The Access Easement shall expire simultaneously with the expiration of the Parking Lease.  No fees, rent or other charges, of any nature, shall be imposed on Buyer under the Access Easement.  The terms and conditions of the Access Easement shall be reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller shall also cause the Access Easement to be recorded at Closing.  Buyer shall cause *** to provide the

Parking Owner with evidence of insurance naming the Parking Owner as an additional insured on liability insurance covering the use of the parking Improvements.  The Parking Owner shall not have any responsibility to maintain or repair the parking Improvements.

 

Additionally, at Closing, Seller shall assign to Buyer, pursuant to an assignment agreement reasonably and mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer, those certain ICP extended warranties provided to Seller by *** issued with respect to sixteen rooftop HVAC units installed at the *** Projects in 2001 and 2002.

DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE

 

Leases

 

1.             Asset #177 (Atlanta)

 

              A tenant alleges that an adjacent tenant’s activities are disturbing its quiet enjoyment.  We do not believe that their quiet enjoyment is disturbed but we are working with both tenants to resolve the dispute.

 

 

2.             Assets #725 and 726 (Nashville)

 

              Deen Prefilled Syringes LLC leased space in each building by assignment from American Medical Link, Inc.  Deen Prefilled Syringes LLC filed for bankruptcy and rejected the leases.  Prior to the bankruptcy we had an action pending against Deen Prefilled Syringes LLC and American Medical Link, Inc.  We are continuing to pursue American Medical Link but have terminated the Leases.

 

 

3.             Asset #730 (Nashville)

 

              Express Media filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on August 9, 2005.  The tenant is still in the space and has not paid rent since filing for bankruptcy.

 

Agreements

 

1.             Assets #701, 702, 703, 710, 725, 727, 728, 713 (Nashville)

 

              XO Communications is serving tenants in the buildings noted above without a contract.  They are not paying any revenue.

 

 

2.             Assets # 202 and 204 (Orlando)

 

      Seller has an unrecorded agreement with ***, the seller of the ground for the buildings, where Seller agreed to pay as part of the purchase price an amount of money based on the amount of office square feet built in the buildings.  This obligation does not run with the land and is binding only on the Seller.  Since all of the space is not built out, Buyer will need to notify Seller from time to time about the amount of the office build out for the initial build out in the buildings.  (See Section 19.12 of the Agreement to which this Exhibit is attached.)

 

E-1



 

Government Violations and Compliance

 

1.             Asset #319 (Cincinnati)

 

              A tenant (California Closets) erected a sign in violation of the zoning code.  We have discussed the issue with the zoning administrator for Deerfield Township and it is doubtful whether a variance would be received.  To date we have not received any written notice requiring us or the tenant to remove the sign.  The sign has been in place for over two (2) years.

1.             The Lease Abstract contains a true, correct and accurate description of the lease by and between Landlord and Tenant (“Lease”), as the same may have been modified or amended, together with a description of any and all guaranties of the Lease that may have been delivered to Landlord or any predecessor to Landlord thereunder.

 

2.             The Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified, supplemented or amended in any way except as indicated in the Lease Abstract; and the Lease represents the entire agreement between the parties as to Tenant’s rights to the rentable square feet set forth in the Lease Abstract.  Except to the extent described in the Lease, Tenant has no options for acquisition, rights of refusal, rights of first offer or rights of negotiation in favor of Tenant with respect to the acquisition of the property of Landlord (or its predecessors, if applicable).
