Item 1.01.              Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 12, 2010, CommonWealth REIT, or we, our or us, entered into a series of 20 agreements, or the Purchase Agreements, for the sale by us of 27 properties which are majority leased as medical office, clinic and biotech laboratory buildings, or MOBs, for sales prices aggregating $470 million, payable in cash.  The properties to be sold include approximately 2.8 million square feet in the aggregate and are located in 12 states.

 

The sales under the individual Purchase Agreements are scheduled to be completed in a series of separate closings expected to be completed by June 30, 2011.  The sales are subject to various closing conditions and contingencies typical of large commercial real estate transactions.  As a result, some or all of these sales may be delayed or may not occur.

 

The descriptions of the Purchase Agreements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 to 10.20 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The 27 properties are to be purchased by, and the other parties to the Purchase Agreements are, Senior Housing Properties Trust, or SNH, and certain of its subsidiaries.  SNH was a 100% owned subsidiary of ours until SNH’s common shares were spun off to our shareholders in 1999.  As a result of agreements entered into by us, SNH and others in connection with the spin off and subsequently, SNH has a right of first refusal to purchase from us and our subsidiaries certain properties (approximately 4.6 million square feet) leased by us principally to tenants in medical related businesses, in the event that we determined to sell such properties or in the event of a change of control of us or of the subsidiary which owns such properties, including properties that are subject to Purchase Agreements. Excluding properties that are the subject of the Purchase Agreements, we continue to own 19 properties that remain subject to SNH’s right of first refusal.

 

We and SNH are managed by Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR.  One of our Managing Trustees, Barry M. Portnoy, is the Chairman and majority beneficial owner of RMR. Our other Managing Trustee, Adam D. Portnoy, beneficially owns the remainder of RMR and is a director, President and Chief Executive Officer of RMR.  Messrs. Barry M. Portnoy and Adam D. Portnoy also serve as Managing Trustees of SNH, and Frederick N. Zeytoonjian serves as an Independent Trustee of us and of SNH.  Our and SNH’s executive officers are also officers of RMR.  SNH also owns 250,000 of our common shares.  The terms of the sales of the 27 properties were negotiated by special committees of each of our and SNH’s Boards of Trustees composed solely of independent trustees who are not also trustees of the other party.  Also, the sales prices for the properties to be sold were established by reference to an independent third party appraisal.

 

We currently own approximately 14.29% of the outstanding equity of Affiliates Insurance Company, or AIC.  The other shareholders of AIC are RMR and five other companies to which RMR provides management services, including SNH, and all of our Trustees and the trustees and directors of the other shareholders of AIC are also directors of AIC.

 

For more information about the relationships among us, our Trustees, our executive officers, SNH, RMR, AIC and other companies to which RMR provides management services, and risks which arise from these relationships, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 (including the sections captioned “Business,” “Risk Factors” (as such section was revised and updated in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010) and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Related Person Transactions”), our Proxy Statement dated February 23, 2010 relating to our 2010 Annual Shareholders Meeting (including the information regarding our Trustees and executive officers in that Proxy Statement and the section captioned “Related Person Transactions and Company Review of Such Transactions”), our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2010 (including the section captioned “Management’s Discussion

WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

THIS CURRENT REPORT CONTAINS STATEMENTS WHICH CONSTITUTE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS.   WHENEVER WE USE WORDS SUCH AS “BELIEVE”, “EXPECT”, “ANTICIPATE”, “INTEND”, “PLAN”, “ESTIMATE” OR SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS, WE ARE MAKING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.  THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ARE BASED UPON OUR PRESENT INTENT, BELIEFS OR EXPECTATIONS, BUT FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR.

 

ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN OR IMPLIED BY OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF VARIOUS FACTORS.  FOR EXAMPLE:

 

·                                          THIS CURRENT REPORT STATES THAT WE HAVE AGREED TO SELL 27 PROPERTIES FOR $470 MILLION AND THAT THESE SALES ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED IN A SERIES OF SEPARATE CLOSINGS BY JUNE 30, 2011.  THE CLOSING OF THESE SALES ARE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS CONDITIONS TYPICAL OF LARGE, COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS.  AS A RESULT, SOME OR ALL OF THESE SALES MAY BE DELAYED AND MAY NOT OCCUR.

 

·                                          THIS CURRENT REPORT STATES THAT THE TERMS OF THE SALES OF THE 27 PROPERTIES WERE NEGOTIATED BY SPECIAL COMMITTEES OF EACH OF OUR AND SNH’S BOARDS OF TRUSTEES COMPOSED SOLELY OF INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES WHO ARE NOT ALSO TRUSTEES OF THE OTHER PARTY AND THAT THE AGREED AGGREGATE SALES PRICE WAS ESTABLISHED BY REFERENCE TO AN INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY APPRAISAL.  AN IMPLICATION OF THESE STATEMENTS MAY BE THAT THE SALES PRICES AND OTHER TERMS OF THESE TRANSACTIONS ARE AS FAVORABLE TO US AS THOSE IN ARMS LENGTH TRANSACTIONS.  WE AND SNH ARE BOTH MANAGED BY RMR AND HAVE COMMON TRUSTEES AND HAVE OTHER RELATIONSHIPS.  ACCORDINGLY, WE AND SNH MAY BE CONSIDERED TO BE RELATED PARTIES, AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE AGGREGATE SALES PRICE AND OTHER TERMS OF THE TRANSACTIONS ARE AS FAVORABLE TO US AS WE MAY HAVE OBTAINED IN ARMS LENGTH TRANSACTIONS.

 

OTHER FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE IN OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS IN THIS CURRENT REPORT ARE DESCRIBED UNDER THE CAPTION “RISK FACTORS” IN EACH OF OUR ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR OUR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 21, 2009, AND OUR QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2010.

 

YOU SHOULD NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.

 

EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW, WE UNDERTAKE NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE OR CHANGE ANY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS OR OTHERWISE.

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

- 13 -



 

(f)      At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due

 

- 14 -



 

during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

(i)

annual rents, operating costs, taxes and other fixed charges payable under the Leases;

- 12 -



 

to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

(i)                           If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due

 

- 14 -



 

during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

3.2       No Other DiligenceThe Purchaser acknowledges that, except as provided in Section 3.1, (i) the Purchaser has had the opportunity to fully investigate and inspect the physical and environmental condition of the Property, and to review and analyze all title examinations, surveys, environmental assessment reports, building evaluations, financial data and other investigations and materials pertaining to the Property which the Purchaser deems necessary to determine the feasibility of the Property and its decision to acquire the Property, (ii) the Purchaser shall not be conducting any further title examinations, surveys, environmental assessments, building evaluations, financial analyses or other investigations with respect to the Property, and (iii) the Purchaser shall not have any right to terminate this Agreement as a result of any title examinations, surveys, environmental assessments, building valuations, financial analyses or other investigations with respect to the Property.

(f)       At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due

 

- 14 -



 

during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

- 13 -



 

(f)      At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due

 

- 14 -



 

during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

10.1       Casualty.  If, prior to the Closing, the Property is  materially destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, the Seller shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact.  In such event, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected by fire or other casualty or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing the rights of the Seller to the proceeds, if any, under the Seller’s insurance policies covering the Property with respect to such damage or destruction and there shall be credited against the Purchase Price the amount of any deductible, any proceeds previously received by Seller on account thereof and any deficiency in proceeds.

 

10.2       Condemnation.  If, prior to the Closing, a material part of the Property (including access or parking thereto), is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof and the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the sale of the Property shall be consummated as herein provided without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except to the extent of any condemnation award received by the Seller prior to the Closing) and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all awards, if any, for the taking, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking of the Property or portion thereof.

accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder.  The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed or other operative conveyance instrument, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

- 9 -



 

extent that with respect to any particular alleged breach, the Purchaser gives the Seller written notice prior to the expiration of said one (1) year period of such alleged breach with reasonable detail as to the nature of such breach.

(c)                       If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then to any required refunds to tenants under the Leases, and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).

 

(d)                      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)                          At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)                        Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to

 

- 14 -



 

the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(h)                       Amounts payable after the date hereof on account of capital expenditures under the 2010 capital expenditure budget previously prepared by the Seller (the “2010 CapEx Budget”) and the 2011 CapEx Budget (together with the 2010 CapEx Budget, collectively, the “CapEx Budget”) (including, without limitation, budgeted items for “building improvements” and “development and redevelopment”), shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)                           If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall

- 16 -



 

Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected by fire or other casualty or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing the rights of the Seller to the proceeds, if any, under the Seller’s insurance policies covering the Property with respect to such damage or destruction and there shall be credited against the Purchase Price the amount of any deductible, any proceeds previously received by Seller on account thereof and any deficiency in proceeds.

 

10.2       Condemnation.  If, prior to the Closing, a material part of the Property (including access or parking thereto), is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof and the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the sale of the Property shall be consummated as herein provided without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except to the extent of any condemnation award received by the Seller prior to the Closing) and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all awards, if any, for the taking, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking of the Property or portion thereof.

12.15     Like Kind Exchange.  At either party’s request, the non-requesting party will take all actions reasonably requested by the requesting party in order to effectuate all or any part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a forward or reverse like-kind exchange for the benefit of the requesting party in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and, in the case of a reverse exchange, Rev. Proc. 2000-37, including executing an instrument acknowledging and consenting to any assignment by the requesting party of its rights

 

- 23 -



 

hereunder to a qualified intermediary or an exchange accommodation titleholder.  In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the requesting party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified intermediary” or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder.  The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed or other operative conveyance instrument, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

Property.  In addition to the actions recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed, and/or delivered by the Seller and the Purchaser, the Seller and the Purchaser agree to perform, execute and/or deliver or cause to be performed, executed and/or delivered at the Closing or after the Closing any and all such further acts, instruments, deeds and assurances as may be reasonably required to establish, confirm or otherwise evidence the Seller’s satisfaction of any disclosure obligations or to otherwise consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

the Purchaser shall not be conducting any further title examinations, surveys, environmental assessments, building evaluations, financial analyses or other investigations with respect to the Property, and (iii) the Purchaser shall not have any right to terminate this Agreement as a result of any title examinations, surveys, environmental assessments, building valuations, financial analyses or other investigations with respect to the Property.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in any documents to be delivered to the Purchaser at the Closing, the Seller has not made, and the Purchaser has not relied on, any information, promise, representation or warranty, express or implied, regarding the Property, whether made by the Seller, on the Seller’s behalf or otherwise, including, without

The Seller hereby covenants with the Purchaser between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date as follows:

 

8.1       Approval of Agreements.  Not to enter into, modify, amend or terminate any Lease or any other material agreement with respect to the Property, which would encumber or be binding upon the Property from and after the Closing Date, without in each instance obtaining the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

(i)                                                     annual rents, operating costs, taxes and other fixed charges payable under the Leases;

 

(ii)                                                  percentage rents and other unfixed charges payable under the Leases;

 

(iii)                                               fuel, electric, water and other utility costs;

 



 

(iv)                                              municipal assessments and governmental license and permit fees;

 

(v)                                                 Real estate taxes and assessments other than special assessments, based on the rates and assessed valuation applicable in the fiscal year for which assessed;

 

(vi)                                              Water rates and charges;

 

(vii)                                           Sewer and vault taxes and rents; and

 

(viii)             all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

 

(c)      If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case

 



 

may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then to any required refunds to tenants under the Leases, and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).

 

(d)      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.

 

12.7       Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.

 

12.8       Counterparts Complete Agreement, Etc.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

12.11     Section and Other Headings.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

12.13     Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

 

12.14     Arbitration.  Any party hereto may elect to submit any dispute hereunder that has an amount in controversy in excess of $250,000 to arbitration hereunder.  Any such arbitration shall be conducted in Boston, Massachusetts in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then pertaining and the decision of the arbitrators with respect to such dispute shall be binding, final and conclusive on the parties.

 

In the event any party hereto shall elect to submit any such dispute to arbitration hereunder, the Seller and the Purchaser shall each appoint and pay all fees of a fit and impartial person as arbitrator with at least ten (10) years’ recent professional experience in the general subject matter of the dispute.  Notice of such appointment shall be sent in writing by each party to the other, and the arbitrators so appointed, in the event of their failure to agree within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator upon the matter so submitted, shall appoint a third arbitrator.  If either the Seller or the Purchaser shall fail to appoint an arbitrator, as aforesaid, for a period of ten (10) days after written notice from the other party to make such appointment, then the arbitrator appointed by the party having made such appointment shall appoint a second arbitrator and the two (2) so appointed shall, in the event of their failure to agree upon any decision within thirty (30) days thereafter, appoint a third arbitrator.  If such arbitrators fail to agree upon a third arbitrator within forty five (45) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, then such third arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association from its qualified panel of arbitrators, and shall be a person having at least ten (10) years’ recent professional experience as to the subject matter in question.  The fees of the third arbitrator and the expenses incident to the proceedings shall be borne equally between the Seller and the Purchaser, unless the arbitrators decide otherwise.  The fees of respective counsel

 



 

engaged by the parties, and the fees of expert witnesses and other witnesses called for by the parties, shall be paid by the respective party engaging such counsel or calling or engaging such witnesses.

 

The decision of the arbitrators shall be rendered within thirty (30) days after appointment of the third arbitrator.  Such decision shall be in writing and in duplicate, one counterpart thereof to be delivered to the Seller and one to the Purchaser.  A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the award of the arbitrators in accordance with the rules and statutes applicable thereto then obtaining.

 

12.15     Like Kind Exchange.  At either party’s request, the non-requesting party will take all actions reasonably requested by the requesting party in order to effectuate all or any part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a forward or reverse like-kind exchange for the benefit of the requesting party in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and, in the case of a reverse exchange, Rev. Proc. 2000-37, including executing an instrument acknowledging and consenting to any assignment by the requesting party of its rights hereunder to a qualified intermediary or an exchange accommodation titleholder.  In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the requesting party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified intermediary” or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder.  The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed or other operative conveyance instrument, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

(iii)                                             fuel, electric, water and other utility costs;

 

- 12 -



 

(iv)                                             municipal assessments and governmental license and permit fees;

 

(v)                                                 Real estate taxes and assessments other than special assessments, based on the rates and assessed valuation applicable in the fiscal year for which assessed;

 

(vi)                                             Water rates and charges;

 

(vii)                                         Sewer and vault taxes and rents; and

 

(viii)                                     all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)                      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

 

(c)                       If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case

 

- 13 -

(d)                     If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)                        At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)                      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

- 14 -



 

be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)                          If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

condition of the Property and (ii) the Purchaser is not relying upon any statements, representations or warranties of any kind, other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any document to be delivered to the Purchaser at the Closing, made (or purported to be made) by the Seller or anyone acting or claiming to act on the Seller’s behalf.  The Purchaser has inspected the Property and is fully familiar with the physical condition thereof and shall purchase the Property in its “as is”, “where is” and “with all faults” condition on the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any party hereto has actual knowledge of the default of any other party (a “Known Default”), but nonetheless elects to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and proceeds to Closing, then the rights and remedies of such non-defaulting party shall be waived with respect to such Known Default upon the Closing and the defaulting party shall have no liability with respect thereto.

7.3       No Violations of Agreements.  Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser, nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof, will result in any breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of any indenture,

(i)

annual rents, operating costs, taxes and other fixed charges payable under the Leases;

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are

 

- 12 -



 

to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

(d)      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

- 13 -



 

(f)       At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(h)      Amounts payable after the date hereof on account of capital expenditures under the 2010 capital expenditure budget previously prepared by the Seller (the “2010 CapEx Budget”) and the 2011 CapEx Budget (together with the 2010 CapEx Budget, collectively, the “CapEx Budget”) (including, without limitation, budgeted items for “building improvements” and “development and redevelopment”), shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)       If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due

 

- 14 -



 

during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

 

The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing.

10.3       Survival.  The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Section 10 shall survive the Closing.

 

SECTION 11.       DEFAULT.

 

11.1       Default by the Seller.  If the transaction herein contemplated fails to close as a result of the default of the Seller hereunder, or the Seller having made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or the Seller having failed to perform any of the material covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by the Seller, the Purchaser may, as its sole remedy, either (x) terminate this Agreement (in which case, the Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser for all of the fees, charges, disbursements and expenses of the Purchaser’s attorneys), or (y) pursue a suit for specific performance.

 

11.2       Default by the Purchaser.  If the transaction herein contemplated fails to close as a result of the default of the Purchaser hereunder, or the Purchaser having made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or the Purchaser having failed to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by it, the Seller may terminate this Agreement (in which case, the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for all of the fees, charges, disbursements and expenses of the Seller’s attorneys).

- 9 -



 

extent that with respect to any particular alleged breach, the Purchaser gives the Seller written notice prior to the expiration of said one (1) year period of such alleged breach with reasonable detail as to the nature of such breach.

 

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in any documents to be delivered to the Purchaser at the Closing, the Seller has not made, and the Purchaser has not relied on, any information, promise, representation or warranty, express or implied, regarding the Property, whether made by the Seller, on the Seller’s behalf or otherwise, including, without limitation, the physical condition of the Property, the financial condition of the tenants under the Leases, title to or the boundaries of the Property, pest control matters, soil conditions, the presence, existence or absence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances or other environmental matters, compliance with building, health, safety, land use and zoning laws, regulations and orders, structural and other engineering characteristics, traffic patterns, market data, economic conditions or projections, and any other information pertaining to the Property or the market and physical environments in which they are located.  The Purchaser acknowledges that (i) the Purchaser has entered into this Agreement with the intention of relying upon its own investigation or that of third parties with respect to the physical, environmental, economic and legal condition of the Property and (ii) the Purchaser is not relying upon any statements, representations or warranties of any kind, other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any document to be delivered to the Purchaser at the Closing, made (or purported to be made) by the Seller or anyone acting or claiming to act on the Seller’s behalf.  The Purchaser has inspected the Property and is fully familiar with the physical condition thereof and shall purchase the Property in its “as is”, “where is” and “with all faults” condition on the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any party hereto has actual knowledge of the default of any other party (a “Known Default”), but nonetheless elects to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and proceeds to Closing, then the rights and remedies of such non-defaulting party shall be waived with respect to such Known Default upon the Closing and the defaulting party shall have no liability with respect thereto.

7.3       No Violations of Agreements.  Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser, nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof, will result in any breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, note, evidence of indebtedness or any other agreement or instrument by which the Purchaser is bound.

SECTION 9.         APPORTIONMENTS.

 

9.1       Real Property Apportionments.  (a)  The following items shall be apportioned at the Closing as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date:

Water rates and charges;

 

 

(vii)

Sewer and vault taxes and rents; and

 

 

(viii)

all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on

 

- 13 -



 

such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

 

(c)      If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then to any required refunds to tenants under the Leases, and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).

 

(d)      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)       At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to

 

- 14 -



 

the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(h)      Amounts payable after the date hereof on account of capital expenditures under the 2010 capital expenditure budget previously prepared by the Seller (the “2010 CapEx Budget”) and the 2011 CapEx Budget (together with the 2010 CapEx Budget, collectively, the “CapEx Budget”) (including, without limitation, budgeted items for “building improvements” and “development and redevelopment”), shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)       If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall

 

- 15 -



 

have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

 

The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing.

10.1       Casualty.  If, prior to the Closing, the Property is  materially destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, the Seller shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact.  In such event, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this

 

- 16 -



 

Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected by fire or other casualty or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing the rights of the Seller to the proceeds, if any, under the Seller’s insurance policies covering the Property with respect to such damage or destruction and there shall be credited against the Purchase Price the amount of any deductible, any proceeds previously received by Seller on account thereof and any deficiency in proceeds.

 

10.2       Condemnation.  If, prior to the Closing, a material part of the Property (including access or parking thereto), is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof and the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the Seller not later than ten (10) days after the giving of the Seller’s notice (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until one day after the expiration of such ten-day period).  If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and no party shall have any liability to the other hereunder.  If less than a material part of the Property shall be affected or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the sale of the Property shall be consummated as herein provided without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except to the extent of any condemnation award received by the Seller prior to the Closing) and the Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all awards, if any, for the taking, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking of the Property or portion thereof.

 

10.3       Survival.  The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Section 10 shall survive the Closing.

 

- 17 -

11.1       Default by the Seller.  If the transaction herein contemplated fails to close as a result of the default of the Seller hereunder, or the Seller having made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or the Seller having failed to perform any of the material covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by the Seller, the Purchaser may, as its sole remedy, either (x) terminate this Agreement (in which case, the Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser for all of the fees, charges, disbursements and expenses of the Purchaser’s attorneys), or (y) pursue a suit for specific performance.

 

11.2       Default by the Purchaser.  If the transaction herein contemplated fails to close as a result of the default of the Purchaser hereunder, or the Purchaser having made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or the Purchaser having failed to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by it, the Seller may terminate this Agreement (in which case, the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for all of the fees, charges, disbursements and expenses of the Seller’s attorneys).

12.11     Section and Other Headings.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Proc. 2000-37,

 

- 23 -



 

including executing an instrument acknowledging and consenting to any assignment by the requesting party of its rights hereunder to a qualified intermediary or an exchange accommodation titleholder.  In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the requesting party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified intermediary” or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder.  The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed or other operative conveyance instrument, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

(iii)                                            fuel, electric, water and other utility costs;

 

- 12 -



 

(iv)                                            municipal assessments and governmental license and permit fees;

 

(v)                                                Real estate taxes and assessments other than special assessments, based on the rates and assessed valuation applicable in the fiscal year for which assessed;

 

(vi)                                            Water rates and charges;

(viii)                                    all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

 

(c)      If any refunds of real property taxes or assessments, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents shall be made after the Closing, the same shall be held in trust by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case

 

- 13 -



 

may be, and shall first be applied to the unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the same, then to any required refunds to tenants under the Leases, and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).

 

(d)     If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)      At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

- 14 -



 

be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)       If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)       If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

10.3       Survival.  The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Section 10 shall survive the Closing.

 

SECTION 11.      DEFAULT.

all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

(d)                      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)                          At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

(i)                           If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

(viii)           all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)                      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

(d)                      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)                          At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)                        Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

(i)                           If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

(e)      No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)      At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)      Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

- 12 -



 

(iv)

municipal assessments and governmental license and permit fees;

Real estate taxes and assessments other than special assessments, based on the rates and assessed valuation applicable in the fiscal year for which assessed;

Water rates and charges;

 

 

(vii)

Sewer and vault taxes and rents; and

 

 

(viii)

all other items of income and expense normally apportioned in sales of property in similar situations in the jurisdiction where the Property is located.

 

If any of the foregoing cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned, such items shall be apportioned on the basis of a good faith estimate by the parties and reconciled as soon as practicable after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

(b)                      If there are water, gas or electric meters located at the Property, the Seller shall obtain readings thereof to a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and the unfixed water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges, if any, based thereon for the intervening time shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.  If such readings are not obtainable by the Closing Date, then, at the Closing, any water rates and charges, sewer taxes and rents and gas and electricity charges which are based on such readings shall be prorated based upon the per diem charges obtained by using the most recent period for which such readings shall then be available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, the apportionment of such charges shall be recalculated and the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, promptly shall make a payment to the other based upon such recalculations.  The parties agree to make such final recalculations within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

(d)                      If, on the Closing Date, the Property shall be or shall have been affected by any special or general assessment or assessments or real property taxes payable in a lump sum or which are or may become payable in installments of which the first installment is then a charge or lien and has become payable, the Seller shall pay or cause to be paid at the Closing the unpaid installments of such assessments due and as of the Closing Date.

 

(e)                       No insurance policies of the Seller are to be transferred to the Purchaser, and no apportionment of the premiums therefor shall be made.

 

(f)                          At the Closing, the Seller shall transfer to the Purchaser the amount of all unapplied security deposits held pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

 

(g)                        Brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under Leases entered into by the Seller after the date hereof, or in connection with the renewal or extension of any existing Lease, shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (calculated on a straight-line basis over the initial term or extension or renewal period, as applicable), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid brokerage commissions, tenant improvement expenses and other amounts payable by the Seller as landlord under any such new Lease, renewal or extension that are allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(h)                       Amounts payable after the date hereof on account of capital expenditures under the 2010 capital expenditure budget previously prepared by the Seller (the “2010 CapEx Budget”) and the 2011 CapEx Budget (together with the 2010 CapEx Budget, collectively, the “CapEx Budget”) (including, without limitation, budgeted items for “building improvements” and “development and redevelopment”), shall

be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser at Closing based upon their respective periods of ownership (on a straight line basis), and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller at the Closing for all amounts so allocated to the Purchaser and paid by the Seller prior to the Closing.  The Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all unpaid amounts payable on account of capital expenditures under the CapEx Budget allocated to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(i)                           If a net amount is owed by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price.  If a net amount is owed by the Purchaser to the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1, such amount shall be added to the Purchase Price paid to the Seller.

 

(j)                          If, on the Closing Date, there are past due rents with respect to any Lease, amounts received by the Purchaser with respect to such Lease after the Closing Date shall be applied, first, to rents due or to become due during the calendar month in which the Closing occurs, and then, to all other rents due or past due in inverse order to the order in which they became due (i.e., first to arrearages most recently occurring, then to older arrearages).  Any such past due rents received by the Purchaser, once applied in the foregoing order of priority, to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller.  In no event shall the Seller have any right to take any action to collect any past due rents or other amounts following the Closing; provided, however, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due rents and other amounts, except that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to institute any legal action or proceeding or otherwise enforce any of its rights and remedies under any Lease in connection with such commercially reasonable efforts.

 

The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing.

any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.

 

12.7                            Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.

 

12.8                            Counterparts Complete Agreement, Etc.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

12.11                    Section and Other Headings.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

12.12                    Time of Essence.  Time shall be of the essence with respect to the performance of each and every covenant and obligation, and the giving of all notices, under this Agreement.

 

12.13                    Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

 

12.14                    Arbitration.  Any party hereto may elect to submit any dispute hereunder that has an amount in controversy in excess of $250,000 to arbitration hereunder.  Any such arbitration shall be conducted in Boston, Massachusetts in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then pertaining and the decision of the arbitrators with respect to such dispute shall be binding, final and conclusive on the parties.

 

In the event any party hereto shall elect to submit any such dispute to arbitration hereunder, the Seller and the Purchaser shall each appoint and pay all fees of a fit and impartial person as arbitrator with at least ten (10) years’ recent professional experience in the general subject matter of the dispute.  Notice of such appointment shall be sent in writing by each party to the other, and the arbitrators so appointed, in the event of their failure to agree within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator upon the matter so submitted, shall appoint a third arbitrator.  If either the Seller or the Purchaser shall fail to appoint an arbitrator, as aforesaid, for a period of ten (10) days after written notice from the other party to make such appointment, then the arbitrator appointed by the party having made such appointment shall appoint a second arbitrator and the two (2) so appointed shall, in the event of their failure to agree upon any decision within thirty (30) days thereafter, appoint a third arbitrator.  If such arbitrators fail to agree upon a third arbitrator within forty five (45) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, then such third arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association from its qualified panel of arbitrators, and shall be a person having at least ten (10) years’ recent professional experience as to the subject matter in question.  The fees of the third arbitrator and the expenses incident to the proceedings shall be borne equally between the Seller and the Purchaser, unless the arbitrators decide otherwise.  The fees of respective counsel

The decision of the arbitrators shall be rendered within thirty (30) days after appointment of the third arbitrator.  Such decision shall be in writing and in duplicate, one counterpart thereof to be delivered to the Seller and one to the Purchaser.  A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the award of the arbitrators in accordance with the rules and statutes applicable thereto then obtaining.

 

12.15                    Like Kind Exchange.  At either party’s request, the non-requesting party will take all actions reasonably requested by the requesting party in order to effectuate all or any part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a forward or reverse like-kind exchange for the benefit of the requesting party in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and, in the case of a reverse exchange, Rev. Proc. 2000-37, including executing an instrument acknowledging and consenting to any assignment by the requesting party of its rights hereunder to a qualified intermediary or an exchange accommodation titleholder.  In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the requesting party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified intermediary” or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder.  The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed or other operative conveyance instrument, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

 

12.16                    Recording.  This Agreement may not be recorded without the prior written consent of both parties.

 

12.17                    Non-liability of Trustees of Purchaser.  The Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust establishing Senior Housing Properties Trust, dated September 20, 1999, as amended and supplemented, as filed with the State Department Of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland, provides that no trustee, officer,

12.18                    Waiver and Further Assurances.  The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it is a sophisticated purchaser of real properties and that it is aware of all disclosures the Seller is or may be required to provide to the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to any law, rule or regulation (including those of Massachusetts and those of the state in which the Property is located).   The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that, prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser has had access to all information necessary to acquire the Property and the Purchaser acknowledges that the Seller has fully and completely fulfilled any and all disclosure obligations with respect thereto.  The Purchaser hereby fully and completely discharges the Seller from any further disclosure obligations whatsoever relating to the Property.  In addition to the actions recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed, and/or delivered by the Seller and the Purchaser, the Seller and the Purchaser agree to perform, execute and/or deliver or cause to be performed, executed and/or delivered at the Closing or after the Closing any and all such further acts, instruments, deeds and assurances as may be reasonably required to establish, confirm or otherwise evidence the Seller’s satisfaction of any disclosure obligations or to otherwise consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

CommonWealth REIT Agrees to Sell 27 Properties for $470 Million

 

Newton, MA (November 12, 2010):  CommonWealth REIT (NYSE: CWH) today announced that it has entered agreements to sell 27 properties (approx. 2.8 million sq.ft.) for $470 million.  These sales are expected to be completed between now and June 30, 2011.   CWH expects to use the net sales proceeds received for general business purposes, including repaying debt and new acquisitions.

 

CWH’s historical cost of the properties being sold is approximately $378 million and its current net book value of these properties is approximately $296 million.  Accordingly, CWH expects to realize net capital gains when all of these sales are completed of approximately $174 million.  CWH has owned these properties for an average of approximately nine (9) years.

 

The sales price capitalization rates for the properties to be sold based upon current annual net operating income realized at these properties is different for each property, but weighted by sales prices it averages approximately 8.4%.

 

The properties being sold have current average occupancy of approximately 95% (weighted by leasable sq.ft.).  The properties are majority leased to medical services providers and other tenants in medical related businesses and all of the properties are being sold to Senior Housing Properties Trust (NYSE: SNH).  SNH was formerly a 100% owned subsidiary of CWH until it was spun out of CWH in 1999.  As a result of agreements entered at the time of this spin out transaction and since then, SNH has rights of first refusal to purchase the properties being sold.  CWH continues to own 19 properties (approximately 1.8 million sq.ft.) which are subject to SNH’s rights of first refusal if and when CWH determines to sell.

 

Both CWH and SNH are managed by Reit Management & Research LLC (“RMR”) and have certain common trustees.  Accordingly, the sales prices for the properties to be sold were established by reference to an appraisal report by a nationally recognized real estate appraisal firm and the terms of the sales were negotiated by special committees of each company’s Board, composed of Independent Trustees who are not also trustees of the other company, represented by separate counsel.

 

A Maryland Real Estate Investment Trust with transferable shares of beneficial interest listed on the New York Stock Exchange.  No shareholder, Trustee or officer is personally liable for any act or obligation of the Trust.

 



 

The sales announced today are part of a multi-year process that CWH began in 2008 to divest older properties associated with CWH’s historical emphasis on healthcare related real estate and to focus on investments in newer, primarily class A properties.

 

CommonWealth REIT is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, which primarily owns office and industrial properties throughout the United States, including approximately 17 million sq.ft. of leased industrial and commercial lands in Oahu, HI.  CWH is headquartered in Newton, MA.
