Upon completion of the work, Seller shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to seek the Inspection Objection Documentation with respect to such work in accordance with this Section 4.2.

10| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

for up to sixty (60) additional days so long as Sellers are diligently pursuing the cure of such Title Objections) which cures shall be performed to insure over or omit any such item in order to allow the Title Agent to issue the Title Policy on behalf of the Title Company subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Except as expressly set forth above, Sellers shall have no obligation to remove or cure any Title Objections set forth in Purchaser’s Objection Notice. All standard printed exceptions, including the gap exception, shall be deleted at Closing, to the extent same can be deleted by Sellers’ delivery of a properly executed Owner’s Affidavit (as defined herein) by Sellers and the Survey by Purchaser, to the Title Agent. Sellers shall execute and deliver to the Title Agent on or prior to the Closing Date an owner’s affidavit on the Title Agent’s standard form, without any requirement for indemnities except for “gap” indemnity (the “Owner’s Affidavit”) and any other documents, undertakings or agreements reasonably required by the Title Agent to issue the Title Policy in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Sellers shall be obligated to discharge and cause to be released from the public records, or otherwise cause to be omitted from the Purchaser’s Title Policy at Closing, including, by bonding over or delivering escrows to the Title Agent satisfactory to Title Agent (but Sellers shall be so permitted to bond/escrow, as the case may be, only for exceptions which can be cured by payment of money) (1) any lien securing a monetary obligation or any lien or security interest that can be released by payment of money (except liens created or caused by Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents in connection with its diligence activities at the Properties for which Sellers have notified Purchaser or for which Sellers are otherwise aware or otherwise responsible for, which shall be the responsibility of Purchaser) and (2) liens or encumbrances (including, but not limited to, monetary liens) voluntarily created by Sellers after the Effective Date in violation of this Agreement. In the event that Sellers shall have failed to cure any Title Objections, with regard to any Properties, to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction prior to the end of Sellers’ cure period in accordance with this paragraph (as same may be extended in accordance with this paragraph), Purchaser may, at its option, either (i) waive any uncured Title Objections and proceed to Closing or (ii) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Sellers, each option to be exercised within five (5) Business Days after Sellers have failed to cure any of the Title Objections of which Seller is required to cure in accordance with this paragraph. Purchaser’s failure to so terminate this Agreement at the end of the period described in subparagraph (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence will constitute its waiver of any uncured Title Objections. In the event that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement under such subparagraph (ii), the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser within three (3) days after Purchaser’s termination notice, free and clear of all rights and claims of Sellers with respect thereto, except to the extent any claim exists against Purchaser relating to its on-site activities at the Properties for which Seller has notified Purchaser or which Seller is otherwise aware or otherwise responsible for, and neither party hereto shall have any other further liability or obligation hereunder.

The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be full performance and discharge of any and all obligations on the part of Sellers to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except where such agreements and obligations are specifically stated to survive.
For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Article 9, in the event that, at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing, Purchaser has elected the Pelham Termination Right and/or the Pelham Adjournment Right, on the one hand, or the Ozone Park Termination Right and/or the Ozone Park Adjournment Right, on the other hand, as applicable, under Article 15 hereof, then neither Seller or Purchaser shall have any obligation to deliver any of the aforementioned deliverables pertaining to the Pelham Property, on the one hand, or the Ozone Park Property, on the other hand, respectively, as the case may be; provided, however, that all of the other aforementioned deliverables for the remaining Properties shall be delivered at or prior to Closing of the other Properties, in accordance hereunder.

25| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

the Pelham Property, individually, or together, as applicable, then Seller and Purchaser shall each deliver such applicable closing documents, in accordance with Section 9.4 or 9.5 hereunder, as applicable, pertaining to the sale of either (or both) respective Property(ies) and such sale or sales shall otherwise be conducted in accordance with this Article 9 on a “one-off” basis, and the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall govern the parties obligations thereto. In the event such “one-off” Closing occurs for either the Pelham Property or the Ozone Park Property, or both, as the case may be, dates in this Agreement relating to the parties’ post-closing obligations (i.e., true-up and survival period) shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such differing closing dates.
Section 9.6:    Closing Costs; Closing Statement.

(c)    Purchaser shall be responsible for paying any sales tax to the applicable Governmental Agency as a result of the transfer to Purchaser of the Vehicle Property, provided that at Closing Sellers shall credit Purchaser fifty percent (50%) of such tax in accordance with Section 9.9(g) hereof.
(d)    At least one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, Sellers and Purchaser shall deposit with the Title Agent an executed closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) consistent with this Agreement in the form required by the Title Agent, which Closing Statement shall include, among other things, the prorations to be made by the Sellers and Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.9 hereof.

(e)    New Jersey Transfer Tax. Sellers and Purchaser shall join on the Closing Date in completing, executing, delivering and verifying the returns, affidavits and other documents required in connection with the taxes imposed pursuant to New Jersey law and any other tax payable by reason of delivery and/or recording of the documents to be delivered at the Closing (collectively, “Conveyance Taxes”). The Conveyance Taxes known as the Transferor Tax shall be paid by Sellers and the Conveyance Taxes known as the Mansion Tax shall be paid by Purchaser.
(i)
Sellers or Purchaser, as appropriate, shall deliver to the Title Agent at the Closing certified check(s), payable to the order of the appropriate tax collecting agency or official, in the amount of all Conveyance Taxes. Instead of paying any of its portion of such Conveyance Taxes directly, Sellers may elect to offset the amount thereof against the Contract Price, in which event Purchaser shall pay same for the account of Sellers.

Section 9.7:    New York Transfer and Recordation Taxes.
(a)    At the Closing, Sellers shall pay 100% of the New York State Real Estate Transfer Tax (the “State Transfer Tax”) in accordance with Article 31 of the Tax Law of the State of New York, and the New York City Real Property Transfer Tax (the “City Transfer Tax”) imposed by Chapter 21, Title 11 of the Administrative Code of the City of New York, in connection with the conveyance of any Property located in the City of New York to the Title Agent on behalf of Purchaser and 100% of the City of Yonkers tax in accordance with Chapter 15 Taxes, Article V, General Ordinance 8-1973, as amended, in connection with the conveyance of any property located in the City of Yonkers on behalf of Purchaser.
(b)    Sellers and Purchaser shall each execute and/or swear to the returns or statements required in connection with the State Transfer Tax and the City Transfer Tax, and any other taxes referred to in this Section or otherwise applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall deliver same, together with the payment thereof which is required of Sellers, to the Title Agent on the Closing Date. All such tax payments shall be made by certified or bank check payable directly to the order of the appropriate governmental officer, or in such other manner as the Title Agent shall reasonably require and accept.
(c)    The Properties are currently encumbered by mortgages in favor of Bank of America, N.A. or PNC Bank, N.A. (collectively, the “Existing Mortgage”). Sellers shall reasonably cooperate and assist Purchaser in arranging for an assignment of the Existing Mortgage to Purchaser’s designee, without representation, warranty or recourse by or to Sellers, provided, that (i) such cooperation by Sellers shall be without charge or cost to Sellers, (ii) all costs related to the assignment of the Existing Mortgage, in lieu of a satisfaction of such Existing Mortgage (including, without limitation, all legal fees incurred by the holder of the Existing Mortgage), as distinguished from the amount required to pay the principal, interest, and any prepayment charges due to the holder of such Existing Mortgage in connection with such assignment, shall be Purchaser’s obligation to pay, (iii) such assignment shall not delay the Closing Date, and (iv) any net benefit to Purchaser in mortgage recording tax savings will be split at Closing equally between Purchaser and Sellers. In connection therewith, upon the assignment of the Existing Mortgage to Purchaser’s designee at Closing, Sellers shall receive a credit from Purchaser for fifty percent (50%) of such mortgage recording tax savings amount at Closing, after deduction of all third party costs incurred by Purchaser related to such assignment (including, without limitation, all legal fees incurred by the holder of the Existing Mortgage the “Sellers Mortgage Recording Tax Credit”) except for Borrower’s legal fees). Sellers shall not be responsible, in any manner whatsoever, for any failure of any holder of the Existing Mortgage to deliver an assignment of the Existing Mortgage. Purchaser acknowledges that Sellers make no representation of its ability to deliver an assignment from the holder of the Existing Mortgage encumbering the Property. If the holder of the Existing Mortgage does not assign the Existing Mortgage to Purchaser’s designee at Closing, then Sellers shall be obligated, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to obtain a satisfaction of the Existing Mortgage at the Closing (and Sellers may use or instruct the Title Agent to use any cash portion of the Contract Price for the Property to satisfy the Existing Mortgage). If the holder of the Existing Mortgage does assign the Existing Mortgage to Purchaser’s designee at Closing, Sellers shall use or instruct the Title Agent to use a portion of the Contract Price to pay the holder of the Existing Mortgage the

27| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

principal, interest, and any prepayment charges due to such holder in connection with such assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing (or anything herein to the contrary), in no event shall the Closing be contingent upon the assignment of the Existing Mortgage or any financing of the purchase of the Property by Purchaser.
Section 9.8:    Intentionally Omitted.
Section 9.9:    Prorations.
(a)    Sellers and Purchaser shall prorate between them on the Closing Date as of 11:59 P.M. on the Proration Date, on a calendar year basis, all income and expense related to the normal operation, maintenance and repair of the Properties, subject to the clarifications and exceptions described below. For purposes of calculating prorations, Purchaser shall be deemed to be in title to the Properties, and therefore entitled to the income and responsible for all expenses on and after the Closing Date, as follows:
(i)
Real property and personal property taxes upon the Properties for the current calendar or fiscal year; Sellers’ pro rata portion of such taxes shall be based upon taxes actually assessed for the current calendar or fiscal year. If, for any reason, such taxes for the current calendar year have not been assessed on the Property, such proration shall be estimated based upon such taxes for the immediately preceding calendar or fiscal year, and thereafter adjusted when actual amounts become available;
(ii)
Amounts paid or payable under the Service Agreements and similar agreements affecting the Property which are assumed by Purchaser, including the Renovation Agreements;
(iii)
Rents, not in arrears, and any prepaid rent under all Leases existing at Closing, subject to Section 9.9(g) below; and
(iv)
Any and all other customary expense and income items relative to the Property.
(b)    Purchaser shall be credited at Closing with an amount equal to the security deposits, if any, actually received by Sellers in connection with the Leases, or Sellers shall turn such security deposits over to Purchaser at Closing.
(c)    All charges for electric and gas service supplied to the Property prior to the Closing Date shall be the obligation of Sellers, and Sellers agree to pay the invoices rendered in connection with such services promptly upon receipt thereof, whether such receipt is before or after the Closing.
(d)    Real estate tax refunds and credits received after the Closing Date pursuant to Pending Tax Appeals which are attributable to the fiscal year during which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Sellers and Purchaser, after deducting reasonable expenses of collection thereof.
(e)    Any errors or omissions in computing apportionments at the Closing shall be corrected as soon after discovery as possible. The provisions of this Section 9.9 shall survive the Closing for a period of three (3) months, except such period shall be extended, as necessary, to the extent any

28| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

Pending Tax Appeals have not then been resolved for the year in which the Closing occurs, until thirty (30) days after such tax appeals have been so resolved (the “True-Up Period”) and thereafter Sellers shall have no liability to Purchaser on account thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Sellers Liability Cap (hereinafter defined) apply to errors or omissions to be corrected pursuant to the express terms and conditions of this Section 9.9 during the True-Up Period.
(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein with respect to any unpaid and delinquent rents (i.e, not prorated pursuant to subparagraph (iii) above), Sellers shall receive a credit at Closing for 100% of all delinquent receivables for rents owed within 30 days of Closing. No credit shall be given to Sellers for any rents owed over 30 days for any Property which amounts shall entirely belong to purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, in order to illustrate how Sellers and Purchaser intend the provisions of this Section 9.9(f) and Section 9.9(a)(iii) to function, attached as Schedule 9.9(f) are three (3) examples of such prorations.
(g)    Purchaser shall be credited at Closing with an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of all sales tax owed from the transfer to Purchaser of the Vehicle Property; the entire amount of such sales tax, however, shall be payable by Purchaser directly to the appropriate Governmental Agency consistent with Section 9.6(c) hereof.

(h)    Seller shall be credited at Closing with an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the value of all the Vehicle Property as calculated in Schedule 3.1 herein.

Section 9.10:    Holdback for Repositioning Properties. At Closing, Purchaser shall withhold from the Contract Price a sum (as calculated by Purchaser and subject to Sellers’ reasonable approval) equal to 110% of the costs to complete the construction of improvements at the Repositioning Properties after the Closing (the “Construction Holdback”), in accordance with the Renovation Agreements, the construction budgets attached as Exhibit H hereto, and the plans and specifications attached as Exhibit I hereto. Following closing, Purchaser shall diligently and in good faith continue to pursue the Construction of Improvements on the Repositioning Properties, in accordance with the Renovation Agreements, the construction budgets attached as Exhibit H hereto, and the plans and specifications attached as Exhibit I hereto. No later than the earlier to occur of (i) three (3) months after the Closing Date or (ii) thirty (30) days following completion of such construction at all Repositioning Properties by Purchaser, Purchaser shall make a cash payment to Sellers equal to the excess, if any, of the Construction Holdback over the amounts expended by Purchaser with regard to such construction, together with such detail, as reasonably requested by Sellers, justifying such refund calculation. Following Closing, Purchaser shall not deviate, in any material respect, from the construction budgets, attached as Exhibit H hereto, the plans and specifications, shop drawings, schematics, attached as Exhibit I hereto, or the Renovation Agreements, without the prior written consent of the Sellers. Purchaser releases Sellers from and against all claims, costs and expenses relating to the Renovation Agreement or accruing from and after the Closing Date and shall indemnify Sellers with respect to any such claims, costs and expenses.

Section 9.11:    New Jersey Bulk Sale Law.
(a)    Filings. Purchaser shall have the right to comply with N.J.S.A. 54:32B:22(c) and N.J.S.A. 54:50-38 and Sellers shall cooperate in connection with such compliance. In furtherance thereof: (i) Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser the Asset Transfer Tax Declaration (the “TTD”) in the form prescribed by the Director of the New Jersey Division of Taxation (the “Director”), so that such form is received by Purchaser not fewer than twenty (20) days prior to the Closing; and (ii) Purchaser may deliver a Notification of Sale, Transfer or Assignment in Bulk (Form C-9600), together with the completed TTD and a fully executed copy of this Agreement (the “Tax Notification”) to the Director by registered or certified mail or overnight delivery, so that such Tax Notification is received by the Director not fewer than fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing. Sellers shall provide all information reasonably requested by Purchaser to enable Purchaser to complete the Tax Notification as soon as practicable.
(b)    Escrow. If, at any time prior to Closing, the Director informs Purchaser that a possible claim (“Tax Claim”) exists for taxes imposed or to be imposed on Sellers, including any interest or penalties thereon, any cost or fees imposed or to be imposed by the Director relating thereto, and any tax on the gain from the sale of the Properties (collectively, “Taxes”) and the amount thereof (the “Deficiency”), then at Closing a portion of the Contract Price in the amount of the Deficiency shall be placed in an account (the “Tax Escrow”) with the Title Agent, to be held by the Title Agent in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.11. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sellers shall have the right to negotiate with the Director regarding the Tax Claim and the Deficiency; provided, however, that: (a) Purchaser shall be entitled to comply with all of the instructions of the Director in establishing and funding the Tax Escrow at Closing; (b) Closing shall not be delayed as a result hereof; and (c) Purchaser shall not be liable for any amount in excess of the Tax Escrow.
(c)    Disposition. If, after Closing, the Director or Sellers request that the Title Agent pay all or any portion of the Deficiency on behalf of Sellers, then Purchaser shall direct the Title Agent to, and the Title Agent shall, promptly pay to the Director the amount so specified. Upon the Director’s issuance of a letter of clearance with respect to Sellers, the Title Agent shall disburse to Sellers any balance remaining in the Tax Escrow. Sellers shall retain the right of contest so long as Purchaser is not made secondarily liable for such tax.
(d)    Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not be liable for any Taxes (including, but not limited to, Taxes owed in connection with the use and operation of the Properties prior to Closing, or any Taxes on any gain realized upon the sale, transfer or assignment of the Properties pursuant to this Section 9.11 only) and Sellers shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any liability or cost incurred in connection with any Claim for any such Taxes, including any interest and penalties thereon and costs and fees imposed by the Director relating thereto. The indemnification provision in this clause (d) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or Closing under this Agreement.
Section 9.12:    1031 Exchange. Sellers or Purchaser, or both of them, may close this transaction as part of a like-kind exchange of properties under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and applicable rules and regulations, provided that the applicable party gives notice of its intent to exercise such right at least fifteen (15) days

30| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

prior to the Closing Date. The exchanging party shall bear all costs of the exchange, including the non-exchanging parties legal fees related thereto. The other party shall cooperate with the exchanging party and do all things reasonably required and requested by the exchanging party (provided that such actions do not increase the other party’s obligations or liabilities under this Agreement) to effect and facilitate such an exchange. The exchanging party shall and does hereby indemnify, defend and hold the other party harmless for, from and against all liabilities arising as a result of the exchange that would not have arisen had the exchanging party not closed this transaction as part of a like-kind exchange. Anything in this section to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) no party makes any representation or warranty to the other as to the effectiveness or tax impact of any proposed exchange; (ii) in no event shall any party be required to take title to any exchange or replacement property; (iii) any party requesting cooperation from another party to an exchange shall provide the other party copies of all documents that are to be executed by such party no less than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date; (iv) in no event shall completion of any such exchange be a cause or excuse for any delay in the Closing Date; (v) no party shall be required to incur any costs or expenses or incur any additional liabilities or obligations in order to accommodate any exchange requested by the other party or any exchange facilitator; and (vi) the party requesting the exchange agrees to use a qualified intermediary to conduct the exchange.
Section 9.13:    Tax Certiorari Proceedings.
(a)    If any tax reduction proceedings in respect of the Properties relating to any fiscal year ending prior to or in the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs are pending at the time of the Closing, Sellers reserve and shall have the right to continue to prosecute and/or settle the same, provided, however, that Sellers shall not settle any such proceeding in the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Purchaser shall be entitled to that portion of any refund relating to the period from and after the Closing in accordance with Section 9.9(d).  Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers in connection with the prosecution of any such tax reduction proceedings.  Purchaser shall have the sole right to prosecute any tax proceedings in respect of the Properties relating to any fiscal year ending after the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs.  Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in connection with the prosecution of any such tax proceedings.
(b)    Any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes resulting from such tax reduction proceedings applicable to the period prior to the Closing shall belong to and be the property of Sellers, and any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes applicable to the period from and after the Closing shall belong to and be the property of Purchaser.  All reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in obtaining such refunds or savings shall be apportioned between Sellers and Purchaser in proportion to the gross amount of such refunds or savings payable to Sellers and Purchaser, respectively.
(c)    The provisions of this Section 9.13 shall survive the Closing.

ARTICLE 10:    DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

31| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

Section 10.1:    Specific Performance. In lieu of Purchaser’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.3 above and to receive the Earnest Money from Sellers, in the event, despite any such material breach or failure by Sellers described in Section 9.3 herein which is not timely cured by Sellers in accordance thereunder, Sellers are not ready, willing and able to close the sale contemplated hereunder, so long as Purchaser is ready, willing and able to purchase the Properties from Sellers, and Purchaser is not itself in default of this Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right, to be exercised by written notice of same to be delivered to Sellers not later than ten (10) business days after the then scheduled Closing Date, and after expiry of all time periods accorded Sellers to cure such default in accordance hereunder, time being of the essence, to pursue specific performance on account of Sellers’ failure to sell the Properties to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, any action or proceeding seeking specific performance must be duly commenced within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, as such Closing Date may have been extended in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees that in no event shall Purchaser be entitled to, seek or obtain any other damages of any kind, including, without limitation, consequential, indirect or punitive damages; provided, however, if the Sellers have made the remedy of specific performance unavailable as a result of Sellers’ voluntary encumbrance of the Property or conveyance of the Property to a third party on or prior to the scheduled Closing Date, and Purchaser is not in default and is otherwise prepared to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Purchaser shall have such additional remedies available at law or in equity.
Section 10.2:    Purchaser’s Default; Damages.
(g)    Purchaser’s Default. In the event that sale of the Properties hereunder are not consummated by reason of Purchaser’s material breach or other material failure to perform all obligations and conditions to be performed by Purchaser under this Agreement, Sellers shall have the right to retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages for the material breach of this Agreement as Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy, such sum to be retained by Sellers being a reasonable estimate of the amount of damages that both Sellers and Purchaser agree that Sellers would sustain by reason of any default by Purchaser, as the amount of actual damages sustained by Sellers would be difficult or impractical to determine.
(h)    No Contesting Liquidated Damages. As material consideration to each party’s agreement to the liquidated damages provisions stated above, each party hereby agrees to waive any and all rights whatsoever to contest the validity of the liquidated damage provisions for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, that such provision was unreasonable under circumstances existing at the time this Agreement was made.
Section 10.3:    Post-Closing Remedies.
(z)    If after the Closing Purchaser fails to perform its obligations which expressly survive the Closing pursuant to this Agreement, then Sellers may exercise any remedies available to it at law or in equity, in any order it deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion, including but not limited to seeking specific performance or damages. In such event, the liquidated damages provisions contained in Section 9.1 shall not limit Sellers’ damages.

32| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

(aa)    If after the Closing Sellers fail to perform their obligations with respect to delivering any monies owed Purchaser pursuant to the true-up provisions contained in Section 9.9(f) and Section 9.13, then Purchaser may seek to obtain such monetary damages equal to the amount claimed owed to Purchaser and no other remedy shall be afforded Purchaser.
Section 10.4:    Limitation on Sellers’ Liability. Prior to Closing, Purchaser agrees that its sole and exclusive remedies against Sellers and the Sellers Related Parties under this Agreement, the Deeds, the Bills of Sale, the Assignments of Leases and Contracts or other agreements delivered by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”) are limited to either (a) the return of the Earnest Money, or (b) specific performance, as more fully set forth in this Article 10. Following Closing, Purchaser agrees that Sellers’ total liability for damages hereunder or under any of the Closing Documents shall not exceed the aggregate sum of $5,000,000 (the “Sellers Liability Cap”); provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Sellers have any liability to Purchaser with respect thereto unless and until the damages suffered by Purchaser shall exceed the aggregate sum of $50,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser has elected the Pelham Termination Right and/or the Pelham Adjournment Right, on the one hand, or the Ozone Park Termination Right and/or the Ozone Park Adjournment Right, on the other hand, as applicable, under Article 15 hereof, then the Sellers Liability Cap shall be proportionately reduced (i.e., in relation to the percentage each such Property bears to the entire Purchase Price) until such time, as applicable, if the Closing of such Property actually occurs, when it would be proportionately increased. Further, Purchaser agrees that in no event shall Purchaser (i) be entitled to, seek or obtain any other damages of any kind, including, without limitation, consequential, indirect or punitive damages or (ii) seek or obtain any recovery or judgment against any of Sellers’ other assets (if any) or against any of the Sellers Related Parties. In addition to the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that it shall not be permitted to file any claim or pursue any cause of action arising from any express obligations of Sellers under this Agreement or the Closing Documents unless such claim or cause of action is filed not later than six (6) months after the Closing Date. The terms and conditions of this Section 10.4 shall survive the Closing. “Sellers Related Parties” shall mean Acadia and any affiliate of Acadia.
Section 10.5:    Sellers’ Pre-Closing Default. In the event that sale of the Properties hereunder is not consummated by reason of a material breach by any Seller of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any material breach or other material failure by any Seller to perform all obligations and conditions to be performed by the Sellers under this Agreement, subject to Sections 6.4 herein and Sellers’ cure rights in Section 9.3, Purchaser may, at its option, either (i) waive Sellers’ default and proceed to Closing; or (ii) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Sellers and recover its actual, out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, incurred in connection with execution and delivery of and performance under this Agreement and preparation for Closing up to an aggregate amount of no greater than $500,000 (such amount, the “Pre-Closing Expenses Cap”) or (iii) enforce specific performance of this Agreement so long as the requirements for specific performance are met pursuant to Section 10.1. If this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to any right of termination given to Purchaser herein, the Earnest Money shall promptly be refunded to Purchaser.

33| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser has elected the Pelham Adjournment Right, on the one hand, and/or the Ozone Park Adjournment Right, on the other hand, as applicable, under Article 15 hereof, then the Pre-Closing Expenses Cap shall be proportionately reduced (i.e., in relation to the percentage each such Property’s Allocated Contract Price bears to the Pre-Closing Expenses Cap). In the event that the Purchaser, however, elects, as applicable, the Pelham Termination Right and/or the Ozone Park Termination Right after the Closing of the Properties other than the Pelham Property and/or the Ozone Park Property, as applicable, then the Purchaser’s Pre-Closing Expenses Cap for such Property, at such time, shall equal the percentage each such Property’s Allocated Contract Price bears to the Pre-Closing Expenses Cap.
Section 10.6:    Environmental Matters. Purchaser acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to conduct its own investigation of the Properties with regard to Hazardous Materials and compliance of the Properties with Environmental Laws. Purchaser is aware (or has had sufficient opportunity to become aware) of the environmental, biological and pathogenic conditions of, affecting or related to the Properties and Purchaser agrees to take the Properties subject to such conditions. Purchaser hereby releases Sellers, their principals and affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents, employees, successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims, counterclaims and causes of action which Purchaser may now or in the future have against any of the foregoing parties arising out of the existence of Hazardous Materials affecting the Properties, except to the extent set forth in any representation contained in Section 6.1(f). The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE 11:    CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY
Section 11.1:    Condemnation.
(i)    If prior to the Closing, all or any material portion of any Property is condemned or conveyed in anticipation or lieu of such condemnation or is taken under the right of eminent domain, or condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are threatened or commenced against any Property or any part of any Property, then Sellers shall give prompt written notice thereof to Purchaser, and Purchaser may, at its option, by delivering written notice to each Seller within fifteen (15) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the condemnation notice from Sellers, either (i) terminate this Agreement as to the affected Properties, and the Contract Price will be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Contract Price of the affected Properties or (ii) terminate this Agreement in its entirety, whereupon the Earnest Money shall be promptly returned by the Title Agent to Purchaser, and neither Purchaser nor any Seller shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. For purposes of this provision, a “material portion” of any Property shall mean (i) more than five percent (5%) of the Land is (or will be) taken or condemned; (ii) the Improvements must be materially reconfigured as a result of such taking; (iii) the taking or condemnation materially interferes with the present use and operation of any of the Improvements or the operation of the business at the applicable Property; (iv) the taking causes a material reduction in the size of any of the Improvements; (v) the elimination of the sole or any required or material means of legal ingress and/or egress from the applicable Property to public roads, with no comparable, convenient legal substitute ingress and/or egress

LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

being available; or (vi) a portion of the available parking area for the Property is (or will be) permanently reduced or restricted by the taking or condemnation so as to materially impair the utility of such property or so as to constitute a violation of the applicable zoning ordinance.
(j)    Failure of Purchaser to deliver written notice of termination, either as to the affected Properties or as to all Properties, within the fifteen (15) day period set forth in clause (a) above shall be conclusively deemed to constitute a waiver of such election to terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part. In the event that Purchaser elects or is deemed to have elected to waive its termination right under this Section 11.1, then the parties shall proceed to Closing without reduction in the Contract Price, and Sellers shall assign to Purchaser (or pay to Purchaser if such proceeds have been collected) any and all claims and awards arising out of such taking or condemnation.
Section 11.2:    Casualty.
(bb)    Risk of loss or damage to the Properties by fire or other casualty through the Closing Date shall be with Sellers. If, prior to Closing, any Property shall be damaged by fire or other casualty (collectively, “Casualty”), Sellers shall promptly deliver to Purchaser written notice (“Casualty Loss Notice”) of such Casualty.
(cc)    For the purposes of this Section 11.2, “Material Damage” shall mean damage to a Property of such nature that the cost of restoring the same to its condition prior to the Casualty will exceed the greater of $500,000 or the percentage set forth on Schedule 11.2 attached hereto relating to each Property, whether or not such damage is covered by insurance. If a Property has sustained Material Damage by a Casualty, Purchaser may, at its option, by delivering written notice to each Seller within fifteen (15) days after (1) delivery of the Casualty Loss Notice or (2) determination that Material Damage has occurred, whichever is later, (i) terminate this Agreement as to the affected Properties, and the Contract Price will be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Contract Price of the affected Properties or (ii) terminate this Agreement in its entirety, whereupon the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, and neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. Unless the Casualty Loss Notice states that a Casualty constitutes Material Damage, the determination whether Material Damage has occurred shall be made pursuant to Section 11.2 (d) below. Failure of Purchaser to deliver written notice of termination, either as to the affected Properties or as to all Properties, within said fifteen (15) day period shall be conclusively deemed to constitute waiver of such election to terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part.
(dd)    In the event a Property has sustained a Casualty which is not Material Damage, or notwithstanding such Material Damage, Purchaser has elected not to terminate this Agreement in whole or in part, the rights and obligations of the parties shall not be affected thereby. In that event, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser at Closing the amount of insurance proceeds or damages received by Sellers in respect of such Casualty plus an amount equal to any deductible under Sellers’ casualty insurance policies and an amount equal to any uninsured losses, and Sellers shall assign to Purchaser all rights to insurance proceeds and claims in respect thereof.
(ee)    In the event of a Casualty, the parties shall attempt, on or before the expiration of ten (10) days after the date of delivery of the Casualty Loss Notice, to agree on the estimated cost of restoration for all purposes of this Section 11.2, and as to the existence of any other condition or circumstance

35| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

which would affect the determination whether Material Damage has occurred. If the parties are unable to agree on or before the expiration of such ten (10) day period, then, Purchaser shall appoint a third party contractor or other expert to determine such matters, in which case, the determination of such third party contractor or expert shall be binding upon both parties.
ARTICLE 12:    MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

The provisions of any document or instrument constituting the conveyance of any real property or an interest in any real property, or pertaining to the effectiveness or validity thereof, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which such real property is located.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective heirs, successors and assigns.

Section 12.6:    Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement; provided that, if the time period by which any right, option, notice or election provided under this Agreement must be exercised, or by which any act required under this Agreement must be performed, or by which the Closing must be held, expires on a day that is not a Business Day, then such time period shall be automatically extended through the close of business on the next Business Day.

The respective attorneys for the parties are hereby authorized to give notices on behalf of their clients and to agree to adjournments of the Closing, provided such agreement to adjourn is in writing.

37| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

(a)    Prior to Closing and subject to the requirements of law and this paragraph, including the requirements of any governmental agency having jurisdiction over either Purchaser or Sellers or any legal process, the parties hereby agree that neither Acadia, Purchaser nor Sellers nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, employees, advisors or representatives shall issue any press release, public announcement, statement, publicity (oral or written), advertising promotion relating to the transaction described herein or otherwise announce or disclose or cause or permit to be announced or disclosed any details related to the transaction described herein; provided, however, that each of Purchaser and Sellers may make disclosure of this transaction to their investors, attorneys, accountants, lenders, creditors, officers, employees and agents as necessary to perform their obligations hereunder and to others to the extent required by law, including disclosure requirements of Acadia, or to enforce the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, the parties specifically agree that either party may issue one or more press releases related to the transaction with notice to the other party provided such press releases do not specifically identify the details of this transaction and of this Agreement or identify the other party and provided further that such press releases do not portray the other party, or its principals, affiliates or employees in a negative light. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any press release issued by Purchaser or Sellers may contain the location of the Properties and/or the Contract Price.
(b)    Until the Closing, Purchaser and its partners, members, attorneys, agents, employees, consultants and advisors will treat the information disclosed to it by Sellers, or otherwise gained through Purchaser’s access to the Properties and Sellers’ books and records, as confidential, giving it the same care as Purchaser’s own confidential information, and make no use of any such disclosed information not independently known to Purchaser except in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may make presentations to prospective investors in Purchaser’s interest in the Property, provided that Purchaser advises such prospective investors of Purchaser’s confidentiality obligations hereunder and such investors agree to be bound thereby. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly return all such confidential information to Sellers, other than (i) information retained by Purchaser pursuant to Purchaser’s internal document retention policy, and (ii) any Third Party Report, except that Sellers shall be permitted to retain such Third Party Report portions previously delivered to Sellers to substantiate the Inspection Objections, pursuant to Section 4.2(b) herein.
(c)    The provisions of (b) above shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the provisions of (a) above shall survive the termination hereof or the Closing.
ARTICLE 13:    NO RECORDING OR NOTICE OF PENDENCYThe parties hereto agree that neither this Agreement nor any memorandum hereof shall be recorded. Supplementing the other liabilities and indemnities of Purchaser to Sellers under this Agreement, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any provision purporting to create a sole and exclusive remedy for the benefit of Sellers), Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Sellers harmless from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, liens, claims, counterclaims, liabilities or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and disbursements) incurred by Sellers arising from or by reason of the

38| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

recording of this Agreement, any memorandum hereof, or any notice of pendency (unless Purchaser prevails in a final unappealable order against Sellers in the action underlying such notice of pendency) or any other instrument against the Properties in any case, by Purchaser. The provisions of this Article 13 shall survive the Closing or any early termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 14:    ESCROW PROVISIONS
Section 14.1:    Investment and Use of Funds. The Title Agent shall (i) hold the Earnest Money in an account as selected and approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, (ii) not commingle the Earnest Money with any funds of the Title Agent or others, and (iii) promptly provide Purchaser and Sellers with confirmation of the investments made, if any. Sellers and Purchaser designate the Title Agent as the “Reporting Person” for the transaction pursuant to Section 6045(e) of the United States Internal Revenue Code 1986, as amended.
Section 14.2:    Interpleader. Sellers and Purchaser each mutually agree that in the event of any controversy regarding the Earnest Money, unless mutual written instructions are received by the Title Agent directing the Earnest Money’s disposition, the Title Agent shall not take any action, but instead shall await the disposition of any proceeding relating to the Earnest Money or, at the Title Agent’s option, the Title Agent may interplead all parties and deposit the Earnest Money with a court of competent jurisdiction in which event the Title Agent may recover all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Sellers or Purchaser, whichever loses in any such interpleader action, shall be solely obligated to pay such costs and fees of the Title Agent, as well as the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.
Section 14.3:    Claim for Earnest Money. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if for any reason the Closing does not occur, the Title Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money to Sellers or Purchaser only upon receipt of a written demand therefore from such party, subject to the following provisions of this paragraph. If for any reason the Closing does not occur and either party makes a written demand upon the Title Agent for payment of the Earnest Money, the Title Agent shall give written notice to the other party of such demand. If the Title Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within ten (10) business days after the giving of such notice, the Title Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment. If the Title Agent does receive such written objection within such ten (10) business day period, the Title Agent shall continue to hold the Earnest Money until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Sellers and Purchaser or a final, non-appealable judgment of a court.
Section 14.4:    Liability of Title Agent as Earnest Money Holder. The parties acknowledge that the Title Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Title Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Title Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Sellers

39| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

or Purchaser resulting from the Title Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Title Agent’s scope or nature of its duties. Sellers and Purchaser shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Title Agent harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the performance of the Title Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Title Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Title Agent.
Section 14.5:    Resignation of Title Agent as Escrow Agent. The Title Agent may resign as escrow agent hereunder at any time upon giving the parties hereto thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. In such event, Sellers and Purchaser shall mutually select a firm, person or other entity to act as the successor escrow agent hereunder. The Title Agent’s resignation as escrow agent shall not be effective until a successor escrow agent agrees to act hereunder; provided, however, if no successor escrow agent is appointed and acting hereunder within thirty (30) days after such notice is given, the Title Agent may pay and deliver the proceeds then held in escrow into a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 14.6:    Escrow Fee. The escrow fee, if any, charged by the Title Agent for holding the Earnest Money shall be shared equally by Sellers and Purchaser.
ARTICLE 15:    PELHAM PROPERTY AND OZONE PARK PROPERTY PROVISIONS
Section 15.1:    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall have the right to elect, in its sole determination, to an adjournment of the Closing solely with respect to either (or both of) (i) the Pelham Property (the “Pelham Adjournment Right”) or (ii) the Ozone Park Property (the “Ozone Park Adjournment Right”) to, in each instance, a date no later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date (the “Pelham Extended Closing Date” or the “Ozone Park Extended Closing Date”, as the case may be), by giving to Seller written notice of such election within two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date.
Section 15.2:    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall have the right to elect, in its sole determination, to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to either (or both of) (i) the Pelham Property (the “Pelham Termination Right”) or (ii) the Ozone Park Property (the “Ozone Park Termination Right”), by giving to Seller written notice of such election within two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date or, in the event the Purchaser has elected the Pelham Adjournment Right or the Ozone Park Adjournment Right, or both, pursuant to Section 15.1, prior to the Pelham Extended Closing Date or the Ozone Park Extended Closing Date, respectively, as applicable.
Section 15.3:    In the event the Purchaser shall have elected either the Pelham Adjournment Right or the Ozone Park Adjournment Right, as the case may be, the Purchaser and Seller each agree, upon completion of the other conditions to the Closing set forth in this Agreement and unrelated to the Pelham Property and/or the Ozone Park Property, as the case may be, the parties shall proceed to the applicable Closing on the Closing Date.

40| P a g e
LEGAL_US_E # 101661756.3

        

Section 15.4:    In the event that, within no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing of all other Properties except for either or both of the Pelham Property and the Ozone Park Property, as the case may be, Purchaser elects to purchase such Properties, then it shall be permitted to do so in accordance with this Agreement, and the Contract Price for such Property shall be the respective Allocated Contract Price. Purchaser’s failure, however, to elect to close on either or both of such properties by such date shall cause this Agreement, and Purchaser’s rights to purchase either such Property, without further act of either party, to immediately terminate with respect to such Property that has not been purchased, and only such provisions that are expressly stated to survive termination, including with regard to post-closing for any Properties that have been purchased.
