As used in this Agreement, an “Affiliate” means with respect to Seller or Purchaser, any person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with such other person or entity. For purposes of this definition, “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

3. THE PURCHASE PRICE.

The aggregate purchase price for the Property is One Hundred Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($110,000,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller by Purchaser as follows:

(a) Deposit. Within two (2) Business Days (as defined below) after the Execution Date, Purchaser shall deliver to First American Insurance Company (“Escrow Company”) a deposit in the amount of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00) (the “Initial Deposit”), which Initial Deposit shall be in the form of a wire transfer of immediately available funds (“Opening of Escrow”). Within one (1) Business Day following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (unless Purchaser previously has terminated this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 5), Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Company an additional deposit (the “Additional Deposit”) in the amount of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00), which Additional Deposit shall be in the form of a wire transfer of immediately available funds (the Initial Deposit and, once made, the Additional Deposit, are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Deposit”). If Purchaser fails to timely deposit with the Escrow Company any portion of the Deposit, when and as due, then Seller may, in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(b), and without regard to the introductory phrase thereof, as its sole remedy, terminate this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser and the Escrow Company and thereafter this Agreement shall be deemed terminated, all without liability of the parties to each other thereafter (except that the Deposit shall only be refundable for the limited reasons set forth in Section 3(b) and except pursuant to provisions hereof which expressly survive such termination). The Deposit shall be invested in a federally issued or insured interest bearing instrument or account as Purchaser shall designate and shall be retained by Escrow Company, subject to the provisions of Sections 3(b) and 3(c). As used herein, the “Deposit” means the Deposit, plus any interest actually earned on such amount from and after the date of deposit thereof with the Escrow Company.

(b) Application of Deposit Against Purchase Price; Release of Deposit to Purchaser. If the purchase and sale of the Property is consummated as contemplated herein, the Deposit shall be credited by Escrow Company and Seller against the Purchase Price. If the purchase and sale of the Property is not consummated because of (i) a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser as permitted by Section 19(a) hereof as a result of a default under this Agreement on the part of Seller or (ii) a timely termination of this Agreement by Purchaser as permitted by, and in strict accordance with, Sections 3(d), 4, 5, 6 or 18, as applicable, or (iii) a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser as permitted by Section 11(a) hereof as a result of a failure of a Purchaser’s Condition Precedent (each, a “Permissible Purchaser Termination Event”), the Deposit shall be immediately refunded by Escrow Holder or Seller, as the case may be, to Purchaser.

 

3


(c) Release of Deposit to Seller. If the Closing does not occur on or before the Outside Closing Date (as defined in Section 16) for any reason other than a Permissible Purchaser Termination Event, the Escrow Company shall immediately release the Deposit to Seller on the Outside Closing Date without any further instruction or confirmation by Seller or Purchaser. The terms of Section 19(b) shall govern with respect to Seller’s right to retain the Deposit.

(d) Assumption of First Lien. Purchaser shall pay (through assumption of the First Lien as described in this Section 3(d)) approximately Fifty Two Million Eight Hundred Eighteen Thousand Two Hundred Sixteen and 56/100 Dollars ($52,818,216.56), representing the unpaid principal balance, which is, as of the Closing, not yet due and payable under that certain Promissory Note (the “Note”) dated October 17, 2005, in the original principal amount of Sixty Million and No/100 Dollars ($60,000,000.00), executed by Seller in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”). The Note is secured by a Deed of Trust, Absolute Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement executed by Seller (the “Deed of Trust”) dated October 17, 2005, and recorded on October 31, 2005, in the Official Records of Maricopa County, Arizona as Document No. 2005-1639973. The Note and the Deed of Trust are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “First Lien”. Purchaser shall use its best efforts to obtain Lender’s Approval (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Lender’s Approval” shall mean: (i) Lender’s approval for Purchaser to assume the First Lien: (1) without any modification to the existing terms and conditions of the First Lien; or (2) on terms and conditions otherwise acceptable to Purchaser in the exercise by Purchaser of its reasonable business judgment; and (ii) Lender’s approval for the release of Seller and Seller’s Affiliates from any liability accruing on the First Lien subsequent to the Closing. In this regard, on or before April 15, 2011, Purchaser shall file a formal application with Lender seeking Lender’s Approval. From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall assume liability and responsibility for the payment and discharge of the First Lien. Purchaser shall pay all assumption fees or other charges (including Lender’s attorneys fees and costs) requested by Lender in connection with Lender’s Approval and Purchaser’s assumption of the First Lien. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in connection with obtaining Lender’s Approval and shall sign such applications and deliver such documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender or Purchaser in order to obtain the Lender’s Approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser is unable to secure Lender’s Approval on or before June 15, 2011, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3(d), the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall bear any title or escrow cancellation fees in equal amounts, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except with respect to rights and obligations herein which expressly survive termination of this Agreement).

(e) Balance of Purchase Price. The balance of the Purchase Price (less the amount of Deposit and less the amount of the unpaid principal balance of the First Lien) shall be paid to Seller in immediately available funds at the Closing, which balance shall be deposited by wire transfer into escrow with the Escrow Company no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing. As used herein, “Business Day” means any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which banking institutions in the State of Arizona are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed.

 

4


(f) Intentionally Omitted.

4. TITLE AND SURVEY.

(a) PTR and Survey. Within three (3) Business Days after the Opening of Escrow, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered, at Seller’s expense, to Purchaser, for Purchaser’s review and approval, a preliminary title report prepared for the Real Property and issued by First American Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”), together with copies of all documents relating to the title exceptions referred to therein (collectively, the “PTR”) and, to the extent available, any existing survey or recorded plat covering the Land in Seller’s possession (“Existing Survey”).

(b) Disapproved Exceptions; Permitted Exceptions. On or before the fifth (5th) day preceding the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (as defined below), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of any matters or exceptions disclosed in the Existing Survey and/or the PTR which Purchaser disapproves (to the extent such exceptions do not constitute Permitted Exceptions hereunder). Any exception specified in any such written notice delivered by Purchaser shall be a “Disapproved Exception.” Any matters affecting or exceptions to title to the Property and not disapproved in writing within the period specified above shall be deemed to be approved by Purchaser and each shall constitute a “Permitted Exception” hereunder. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all of the following shall also constitute Permitted Exceptions (regardless of whether Purchaser disapproves of them): (i) real estate taxes and assessments, existing bond or special district assessments, personal property taxes, water and/or meter charges, sewer taxes, charges or rents; in each case not yet due and payable; (ii) liens, encumbrances or other matters made, created or suffered by or on behalf of Purchaser, including, without limitation, liens arising as a result of any act or omission of Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents, contractors or representatives; (iii) zoning and other land use restrictions and ordinances; (iv) printed exceptions and exclusions set forth in the Title Company’s standard form policy of title insurance; (v) all Leases set forth on Exhibit B or entered into pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (vi) consents previously granted by any former owner of the Property for the erection of any structure or structures on, under or above any street or streets on which the Property may abut; (vii) easements or rights of use of record and identified on the PTR in favor of any utility company for construction, use, maintenance or repair of utility lines, wires, terminal boxes, mains, pipes, cables conduits, poles and other equipment and facilities on, under and across the Property; (viii) liens for any unpaid real estate tax, water charge, sewer rent and assessment to be adjusted at the Closing in accordance with this Agreement; (ix) any liens or encumbrances as to which the Title Company will insure, or commit to insure, Purchaser against loss or forfeiture of title to, or collection from the Property without additional cost to Purchaser, whether by payment, bonding, indemnity of Seller or otherwise; (x) any and all Uniform Commercial Code filings which are more than five (5) years old and which have not been continued; (xi) the revocable nature of the right, if any, to maintain street and sidewalk vaults and other vault spaces, coal chutes, excavations, canopies, marquees and signs; (xii) any matter that is the responsibility of any Tenant under any lease of the Property; (xiii) any other leases, liens, encumbrances or other exceptions which are approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 12 below; (xiv) any non-monetary encumbrance that would not unreasonably interfere with Purchaser’s development, operation or use of the Property; and (xv) the First Lien.

 

5


Purchaser shall also have the right to review and object to any new exceptions to title disclosed in any amendment to the PTR not otherwise known to Purchaser by delivering written notice to Seller of such disapproved exceptions (such items shall be deemed “Disapproved Exceptions”) within five (5) days of Purchaser’s receipt of any such amendment to the PTR.

(c) Unresolved Exceptions. Within two (2) days after the date Seller receives Purchaser’s written notice of any Disapproved Exception within the time period specified above (or the first Business Day after said two (2) day period, if the second (2nd) day is not a Business Day), Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing of any Disapproved Exceptions which Seller is unable or unwilling to cause to be removed or insured against prior to or at the Closing (the “Unresolved Exceptions”). With respect to any Unresolved Exception, Purchaser shall elect, by giving written notice to Seller and the Escrow Company on or before the later of the last day of the Due Diligence Period or two (2) Business Days after the date Purchaser receives Seller’s written notice of any Unresolved Exceptions (i) to terminate this Agreement, or (ii) to waive Purchaser’s disapproval of such Unresolved Exceptions, in such latter event each such Unresolved Exception shall then be deemed a Permitted Exception. Purchaser’s failure to terminate this Agreement on or before the later of the last day of the Due Diligence Period or two (2) Business Days after the date Purchaser receives Seller’s written notice of any Unresolved Exceptions shall constitute Purchaser’s agreement to treat such Unresolved Exception(s) as Permitted Exception(s). If Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with this Section 4, this Agreement will be deemed terminated, and the Deposit shall immediately be refunded to Purchaser. Title and escrow cancellation costs shall be paid by Seller and Purchaser as provided in Section 17(c).

(d) Updated Survey. Purchaser shall have the right to obtain an update, supplement or amendment to the Existing Survey (collectively, the “Updated Survey”), at Purchaser’s expense, provided that Purchaser’s failure to obtain the Updated Survey on or before the last day of the Due Diligence Period shall not result in the extension of the Due Diligence Period and shall not be a condition of Closing. Upon receipt of the Updated Survey, Purchaser shall provide two (2) original Updated Surveys to Seller and one (1) to Title Company, each certified by the surveyor who prepares such Updated Survey. Purchaser shall have until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to examine the same and to notify Seller in writing of its objections to any new matters disclosed by the Updated Survey that constitute new title exceptions. If and only if Purchaser shall give written notice of such objections to Seller within three (3) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Updated Survey (but in no event later than the expiration of the Due Diligence Period), such items shall be deemed “Disapproved Exceptions,” and the rights and obligations of Purchaser and Seller with regard to such Disapproved Exceptions shall be as set forth in Section 4(c) hereof.

(e) Extended Title Coverage and Endorsements. Purchaser, at Purchaser’s option and at its sole cost and expense, may obtain additional title endorsements and other extended title coverage.

5. INSPECTION; DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD.

This Section 5 applies to Purchaser’s due diligence activities relating to all matters except title and survey matters, which are addressed by Section 4.

(a) Inspection. As used in this Agreement, the term “Due Diligence Period” shall mean the period commencing on the Execution Date until 5:00 p.m., Phoenix, Arizona time on April 30, 2011. During the Due Diligence Period, and with twenty four (24) hours advance telephonic notice to Seller, Purchaser, its agents, representatives and consultants may enter onto the Real Property during reasonable business hours (subject to the rights of Tenants) to interview Tenants (provided, however, no Tenant interviews may take place prior to April 15, 2011) and to perform non-intrusive inspections and tests of the Property (including, without limitation, environmental testing) and the structural and mechanical systems within any Improvements; provided, however, that in no event shall (i) such inspections or tests unreasonably disrupt or disturb the on-going operation of the Property or the rights of the Tenants, or (ii) Purchaser or its agents, representatives and consultants drill or bore on or through the surface of the Real Property or the Improvements or otherwise conduct invasive or destructive testing without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. Seller may elect, in Seller’s discretion, to accompany, or cause one of Seller’s representatives to accompany, Purchaser and/or its representatives during such inspection and testing of the Property. After making such tests and inspections, Purchaser shall promptly restore the Property to its condition prior to making such tests and inspections, which obligation shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement. Prior to Purchaser entering the Property to conduct the inspections and tests described above, Purchaser shall obtain and maintain, and shall cause each of its contractors and agents to maintain, at no cost or expense to Seller, general liability insurance, from an insurer reasonably acceptable to Seller, in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for personal injury and property damage per occurrence, such policies to name Seller as an additional insured party, which insurance shall provide coverage against any claim for personal liability or property damage caused by Purchaser or its agents, representatives or consultants in connection with such inspections and tests. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller evidence thereof prior to entry onto the Property. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller, as a courtesy and without any representation or warranty whatsoever (including any representation that Seller shall be entitled to rely thereon), copies of all reports, studies and results of tests and investigations obtained or conducted by Purchaser with respect to the Property (which obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement).

(b) Indemnity. Purchaser shall keep the Property free from all liens, and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller and Seller’s members, and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, beneficiaries, members, partners and employees, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Parties”), from and against all claims, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred, suffered by, or claimed against the Seller Parties, or any of them, by reason of any damage to the Property or injury to persons caused by Purchaser and/or its agents, representatives or consultants in exercising its rights under this Section 5, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of any

 

7


of the Seller Parties or to the extent resulting from Purchaser discovering and disclosing to Seller a pre-existing condition. The foregoing provisions shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

(c) Due Diligence Materials. Prior to the Execution Date, Seller has or made available to Purchaser at Seller’s office in Phoenix, Arizona and at Seller’s property management office at the Real Property copies of the following documents relating to the Property (to the extent in Seller’s possession):

(i) copies of the documents relating to the First Lien including, but not limited to, the Note, the Deed of Trust, financing statements and security agreements;

(ii) copies of all the Contracts;

(iii) engineering and architectural studies, earthquake and structural reports, soil and environmental assessment reports and related documents, geotechnical and physical inspection reports including hazardous materials and asbestos reports, if any;

(iv) a copy of the tax bill issued for the most recent two years for real estate taxes;

(v) copies of all Leases (including, without limitation, any lease guaranties) along with a rent roll and schedule of security deposits;

(vi) monthly income and expense statements, balance sheets and any other financial information (excluding, however, any of Seller’s financial information analyzing the value of the Property) reflecting the operations of the Property for the calendar years 2008, 2009, 2010 and year-to-date through February 28, 2011;

(vii) the Permits, plans, building inspection approvals, governmental agreements and governmental documents;

(viii) all warranties and guarantees;

(ix) Operating Expense reimbursement calculations for the calendar years 2008, 2009, 2010 and year-to-date through February 28, 2011;

(x) aged receivables reports;

(xi)Tenant certificates of insurance;

(xii) Copies of any non-privileged reports, studies or other materials pertaining to the Property in addition to the items listed in (i) through (xi) above; and

(xiii) Copies of any non-privileged communications with respect to the items listed in (i) through (xii) above.

 

8


The foregoing deliveries were made by Seller to accommodate and facilitate Purchaser’s investigations relating to the Property prior to the Execution Date, but, except as expressly set forth in Sections 6, 9(b), 20(b) and 22(a) and any Seller Certificate or Closing Document, Seller makes no representations or warranties of any kind regarding the accuracy or thoroughness of the information contained in the materials delivered to Purchaser.

(d) Due Diligence Termination. At any time prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement if Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that any of the Due Diligence Materials (as defined in Section 6(i) below) either individually or in the aggregate reveal matter(s) that are not approved by Purchaser, by delivering to Seller (with a copy to the Escrow Company) written notice of Purchaser’s disapproval of any such matter(s) and, if elected by Purchaser, that Purchaser has elected to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser notifies Seller that Purchaser disapproves of any such matter(s) but nevertheless does not elect to terminate the Agreement as provided above, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall close as provided herein, and Seller shall have no obligation to eliminate, ameliorate, or cure any such matter(s) disapproved by Purchaser. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller shall bear any title or escrow cancellation fees in equal amounts. Purchaser’s failure to deliver written notice of its election to terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(d) shall be conclusively deemed to be Purchaser’s approval of all matters relating to the Property; provided, however, if Purchaser has delivered a written notice identifying any Disapproved Exception in accordance with terms of Section 4 above, the terms of Section 4, and not this Section 5(d), will govern with respect to the treatment of any Disapproved Exceptions.

(e) Contracts. Purchaser shall notify Seller prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period if it desires to receive an assignment of, and to assume Seller’s rights and obligations under, any Contracts at the Closing, which notice shall specify the Contracts to be assigned and assumed. Except for the Contracts set forth in such notice, Seller shall terminate all other Contracts by the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Contracts identified as “non-terminable” on Exhibit E, if any, are not terminable prior to the Closing and, therefore, if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes, such Contracts shall be assigned to and assumed by Purchaser.

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER.

Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that the following matters are true and correct as of the Execution Date, and will be true and correct as if made anew on the date of the Closing:

(a) Authority. Seller is a limited liability company, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Arizona, qualified to do business in the State of Arizona.

(b) Due Execution. Seller has the requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement. This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution

 

9


and delivery by Purchaser, constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms (except to the extent that such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other principles relating to or limiting the right of contracting parties generally) and does not violate the material provisions of any agreement to which Seller is a party or to which it is subject.

(c) Litigation. To Seller’s Actual Knowledge and except as set forth in the Due Diligence Materials or on Exhibit M attached hereto, Seller has received no written notice of any actions, suits or proceedings, pending or threatened, before any judicial, administrative or other governmental authority with respect to the Property (or any portion thereof).

(d) Governmental Notices.

Neither Purchaser nor Seller shall be obligated to perform under the terms of this Agreement if Purchaser or Seller has validly terminated this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

(a) Purchaser’s Conditions Precedent. The following shall be conditions precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the purchase and sale transaction contemplated herein with respect to the Property (collectively, the “Purchaser’s Conditions Precedent”):

(i) The Title Company shall stand ready to issue at the Closing an ALTA standard coverage owner’s policy of title insurance with liability in the full amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, together with such endorsements as were requested by Purchaser and Title Company irrevocably committed, prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, to issue to Purchaser at Closing (the “Title Policy”), insuring Purchaser’s interest in the Property, dated as of the day of the Closing.

(ii) There shall exist no material breach of (A) any of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 6, or (B) any other material obligation of Seller hereunder as of the Closing, in either case not cured in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(a).

(iii) Seller shall have delivered to the Escrow Company the items described in Section 13.

(iv) Purchaser shall have received, prior to the Closing, estoppel certificates (collectively, “Tenant Estoppel Certificates”), in the form customarily issued by the Tenant and/or the form set forth in their respective Leases executed by each Tenant whose premises contains more than fifteen thousand (15,000) square feet of leaseable area (collectively the “Major Tenants”) and from remaining Tenants leasing in the aggregate not less than seventy five percent (75%) of the remaining leasable floor area of the Property (the “Estoppel Threshold”) in the form set forth in the respective Tenant’s Lease (but if no form is set forth in a particular Lease or if the particular Lease does not otherwise dictate the contents of a Tenant Estoppel Certificate, then in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N-1). Tenants (other than the Major Tenants) that do not execute a Tenant Estoppel Certificate, Seller shall execute a certificate in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto (the “Seller Certificate”). Purchaser may disapprove any Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate hereunder only if such Tenant

 

17


Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate reflects a default by Seller or Tenant under the Lease in question, reflects information that is inconsistent with the Rent Roll in any material respect or reflects information that is not substantially consistent with the Due Diligence Materials; and any disapproval of a Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate shall be in writing, shall set forth with specificity the basis of such disapproval and must be received by Seller not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery of such Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate to Purchaser, it being expressly agreed that any Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate not disapproved in accordance with the provisions of this sentence shall be deemed approved and shall be applicable to the satisfaction of the Estoppel Threshold.

Any action, suit or proceeding with respect to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any Seller Certificate shall be commenced, if at all, on or before the date which is twelve (12) months after the date of the Closing and, if not commenced on or before such date, the Seller Certificate thereafter shall be void and of no force or effect. If Purchaser disapproves any Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of this Section, then Seller shall be entitled to remedy the condition which caused Purchaser to disapprove such Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate and deliver to Purchaser prior to the Closing an updated Tenant Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate in accordance with the terms of this Section. Seller shall review each Tenant Estoppel Certificate executed by a Tenant prior to transmitting such Tenant Estoppel Certificate to Purchaser and Seller shall endeavor to remedy with the Tenant executing the Tenant Certificate any matter which would, in Seller’s reasonable business judgment, entitle Purchaser to disapprove such Tenant Estoppel Certificate in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

Purchaser shall have received, prior to the Closing, from each of the parties to the Underlying Declaration an estoppel in the form as provided for in the Underlying Declaration (as defined in Exhibit F) (the “Underlying Declaration Estoppel”), and such Underlying Declaration Estoppel does not recite that Seller or any of the other parties to the Underlying Declaration is in default under the Underlying Declaration and does not reflect information that is substantially inconsistent with the Due Diligence Materials.

(vi) Litigation. No suit, action, claim or other proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in writing against Seller which results, or reasonably might be expected to result, in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement being enjoined or declared unlawful, and/or in any lien attaching to or against the Property and/or in any liabilities or obligations being imposed upon Purchaser or the Property, other than the Permitted Title Exceptions.

The conditions set forth in this Section 11(a) are solely for the benefit of Purchaser and may be waived only by Purchaser. Purchaser shall, at all times prior to the termination of this Agreement, have the right to waive any of these conditions.

(b) Seller’s Conditions Precedent. The following shall be conditions precedent to Seller’s obligation to consummate the purchase and sale transaction contemplated herein with respect to the Property (the “Seller’s Conditions Precedent”):

(i) Purchaser shall have delivered to the Escrow Company, prior to the Closing, for disbursement as directed hereunder, all cash or other consideration or other immediately available funds due from Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement.

(ii) There shall exist no material breach of (a) any of Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants set forth in Section 7, or (b) any other material obligation of Purchaser hereunder as of the Closing, in either case, not cured in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(b).

(b) Leasing. During the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall have the right to enter into any new leases, or amend, modify, terminate or extend any existing Leases with respect to the Property, in either case, in the ordinary course of business of Seller, without the consent of Purchaser, except that Seller agrees to notify Purchaser in writing of any such activity no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, which may be extended to provide Purchaser with at least three (3) Business Days requisite notice. After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and prior to the Closing, Seller shall not enter into any new leases, or amend, modify, terminate or extend any existing Leases with respect to the Property, in any case without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which consent shall be deemed given if not disapproved in writing within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice of proposed transaction).

If Purchaser consents to any such new lease, or to the amendment, modification, termination or extension of any existing Lease, and the Closing occurs, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for: (i) all Tenant Inducement Costs; and (ii) the payment of all Leasing Costs thereunder, all as set forth in said new lease or amendment, modification, termination or extension agreement of any existing Lease (collectively, the “Approved Leasing Costs/Tenant Inducement Costs”). Following the Closing, Seller shall have no liability or responsibility for any Approved Leasing Costs/Tenant Inducement Costs.

With respect to the existing Leases: (A) Seller shall be solely responsible for: (1) all Tenant Inducement Costs; and (2) all unpaid Leasing Costs, (B) if the Closing occurs, Seller shall have no liability or responsibility for: any Leasing Costs or Tenant Inducement Costs for which Purchaser receives a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing as set forth in Exhibit O, and (C) following the Closing, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for any Leasing Costs or Tenant Inducement Costs for which Purchaser receives a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing as set forth in Exhibit O.

For purposes of this Agreement: (y) the term “Leasing Costs” shall mean all leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs or allowances, move in allowances and any other payment to the Tenant, whether with respect to an existing Lease, with respect to an amendment, modification, termination or extension of an existing Lease or with respect to a new Lease; and (z) the term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall mean any free rent, rent holidays, rent concessions, rental abatements and rent credits provided under a Lease for the benefit of the Tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a tenant inducement, whether with respect to an existing Lease, with respect to an amendment, modification, termination or extension of an existing Lease or with respect to a new Lease.

(c) Contracts and Operating Agreements. During the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall have the right, in either case, in the ordinary course of business of Seller, to enter into any new contracts, agreements or operating agreements which would bind the Property or Purchaser or amend, modify, terminate or extend the Contracts without the consent of

After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and prior to the Closing, Seller shall not enter into any new contracts, agreements or operating agreements which would bind the Property or Purchaser or amend, modify, terminate or extend the Contracts in any case without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which consent shall be deemed given if not disapproved in writing within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice of proposed transaction).

(d) Insurance. Until the Closing, Seller shall maintain a commercial general liability insurance policy for the Property consistent with Seller’s past practices and shall keep the Property insured against fire, vandalism and other loss, damage and destruction under Seller’s policies of insurance for the Property; provided, however, that Seller’s insurance policies shall not be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing, and Purchaser shall be obligated to obtain its own insurance coverage from and after the Closing.

(e) Operations. Until the Closing, Seller shall operate and maintain the Property consistent with Seller’s obligations as Landlord under the Leases, Contracts and Operating Agreements and consistent with Seller’s past practices in the ordinary course of its business.

(f) Ongoing Deliveries. Until the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser copies of any notice described in Sections 6(c), 6(d) and 6(e) that Seller receives subsequent to the Execution Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt.

16. CLOSING.

As used herein, the “Closing” is the consummation of the purchase and sale contemplated herein which shall occur in a single Closing on the date that is fifteen (15) days after Lender provides to Purchaser and Seller written notice of Lender’s Approval, but no later

 

23


than June 30, 2011 (the “Outside Closing Date”). If the Closing has not occurred by the Outside Closing Date due to the failure of the Purchaser’s Condition Precedent contained in Section 11(a)(iv) or Section 11(a)(v) hereof, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to postpone by written notice to Purchaser the Closing by one or more postponements, to a date not later than thirty (30) days after the Outside Closing Date in order to provide additional time for Seller to obtain additional Tenant Estoppel Certificates so as to satisfy the Estoppel Threshold and/or to obtain the Underlying Declaration Estoppel, as the case may be. Without limiting the provisions of this Section 16 to the contrary, Purchaser shall have and is hereby granted the right to extend the Outside Closing Date from June 30, 2011 to July 28, 2011 in order to obtain any necessary authorizations and/or approvals in order for Purchaser to acquire the Property (Purchaser and Seller acknowledge, however, that Purchaser obtaining any or all of such authorizations and/or approvals is not a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement). In order to exercise the option to extend the Outside Closing Date described in the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser shall provide to Seller and Escrow Company, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the then scheduled Outside Closing Date, written notice of its election to so extend the Outside Closing Date. As used herein, the term “Closing Date” means the date that the Purchase Price is received by Seller and the Special Warranty Deed is recorded.

17. CLOSING COSTS.

(a) Seller’s Closing Costs. Seller shall pay (i) that portion of the premium for the Title Policy equal to the amount of an LTAA standard coverage owner’s policy plus the cost of any Title Curative Endorsements (defined below), (ii) all recording fees (other than with respect to Purchaser’s assumption of the First Lien, if applicable), documentary transfer taxes, deed stamps and state, county and any city transfer taxes (if any), and (iii) one-half (1/2) of the escrow fee. For purposes of this Agreement and each of the documents executed in connection herewith, “Title Curative Endorsements” shall specifically mean and be limited to any title endorsements Seller elects to obtain pursuant to Section 4 to resolve Disapproved Exceptions.

(b) Purchaser’s Closing Costs. Purchaser shall pay (i) all costs and expenses incurred in connection with assumption of the First Lien, (ii) any additional title insurance premium payable in connection with any lender’s policy of title insurance or any additional or extended title coverage (including, without limitation, that portion of the premium for the Title Policy equal to the amount in excess of an LTAA standard coverage owner’s policy), (iii) the costs of the Updated Survey, if any, (iv) the cost of any title endorsements which are not Title Curative Endorsements, (v) all recording fees with respect to assumption of the First Lien, and (vi) one-half (1/2) of the escrow fee. Each party shall bear the expense of its own counsel and consultants.

(c) Cancellation Fees. If the sale of the Property contemplated hereunder does not occur because of a default on the part of Purchaser, all escrow and title cancellation fees with respect to the Property shall be paid by Purchaser. If the sale of the Property does not occur because of a default on the part of Seller, all escrow and title cancellation fees shall be paid by Seller. If the sale of the Property does not occur for reasons other than a default by Seller or Purchaser, then Seller and Purchaser each shall pay fifty percent (50%) of any escrow and title cancellation fees.

18. RISK OF LOSS; TAKING.

(a) Material Damage. If prior to the Closing, the Property is materially damaged (as defined in Section 18(d)), Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to Seller within five (5) Business Days after receiving written notice of such damage or destruction (but in any event prior to the Closing), either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except with respect to rights and obligations herein which expressly survive termination of this Agreement), and any money (including, without limitation, the Deposit) or documents in the Escrow shall be returned to the party depositing the same and Purchaser and Seller shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of any title or escrow cancellation fees, or (ii) to accept the Property in its then condition, without a reduction in the Purchase Price (except for a credit for the insurance deductible), and to proceed with the Closing and to receive an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any insurance proceeds payable by reason of such damage or destruction and a credit at Closing (with the exception of any damage caused by earthquake) for any deductible under Seller’s insurance policies. Purchaser’s failure within such five (5) Business Day period to deliver a written notice electing to proceed under either clause (i) or (ii) above shall be deemed to be Purchaser’s election to proceed under clause (i) above. If Purchaser elects to proceed under clause (ii) above, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such proceeds without Purchaser’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the event causing material damage occurs within five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Closing Date, the Outside Closing Date shall be extended for the number of days necessary for Purchaser to have five (5) Business Days after the receipt of notice of such damage to elect to proceed under either clause (i) or (ii) above.

(b) Material Condemnation. If prior to the Closing, all or any material portion (as defined in Section 18(d)), of the Property is subject to a “taking” (as defined below), Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to Seller within five (5) Business Days after receiving written notice of such taking (but in any event prior to the Closing), either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except with respect to rights and obligations herein which expressly survive termination of this Agreement), and any money (including, without limitation, the Deposit) or documents in the Escrow shall be returned to the party depositing the same, and Purchaser and Seller shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of any title or escrow cancellation fee, or (ii) to accept the Property in its then condition, without a reduction in the Purchase Price, and to proceed with the Closing and to receive an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any condemnation award payable by reason of such taking. Purchase’s failure within such 5-Business Day period to deliver a written notice electing to proceed under either clause (i) or (ii) above shall be deemed to be Purchaser’s election to proceed under clause (i) above. If Purchaser elects to proceed under clause (ii) above, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such award without Purchaser’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). As used in this Section 18, “taking” means any transfer of the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein to a governmental entity or other party with appropriate authority, by exercise of the power of eminent domain. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if notice of the material taking is received within five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Closing Date, the Outside Closing Date shall be extended for the number of

 

25


days necessary for Purchaser to have five (5) Business Days after the receipt of notice of such taking to elect to proceed under either clause (i) or (ii) above.

(c) Non-Material Damage or Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, any non-material portion of the Property is damaged or subject to a taking, Purchaser shall accept the Property in its then condition and proceed with the Closing, in which case Purchaser shall be entitled to an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any insurance proceeds, or any award in connection with such taking, as the case may be. If the damage to the Property is covered by Seller’s insurance (with the exception of any earthquake insurance), Seller shall also credit Purchaser at Closing for the amount of any deductible applicable to the loss. In the event of any such non-material damage or taking occurs, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such insurance proceeds or such award, as the case may be, without Purchaser’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) Material Defined. For the purpose of this Section 18, damage to the Property shall be deemed to be “material”, or involve a material portion, if (i) the cost of restoration or repair of such damage (other than earthquake damage) or the amount of the condemnation award with respect to such taking exceeds Five Hundred Thousand and No/Dollars ($500,000.00) or, in the case of earthquake, the damage exceeds Fifty Thousand and No/Dollars ($50,000.00), or (ii) such damage would permit any Major Tenant to terminate its Lease.

(e) Notification. Seller agrees to give Purchaser written notice of any taking, damage or destruction of any portion of the Property within two (2) Business Days after Seller obtains knowledge thereof.

19. DEFAULT.

(a) Seller Default. If Seller fails to close the purchase of the Property due to a Seller default, Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, elect one of the following remedies, at Purchaser’s sole election: (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and Escrow Company, and upon receipt of such notice of termination, Escrow Company shall promptly refund the Deposit to Purchaser and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs up to a maximum amount of Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00), provided, however, Seller shall have a period of thirty (30) days after written default notice from Purchaser (or after one hundred twenty (120) days if Seller diligently commences to cure such default, but such default is not reasonably curable within thirty (30) days) to cure such default (in which event, the Outside Closing Date shall be extended as necessary to accommodate such thirty (30) or one hundred twenty (120) day period, as applicable); or (ii) commence an action or proceeding for specific performance, which action for specific performance must be brought, if at all, within ninety (90) days after the Outside Closing Date.

(b) Purchaser Default. IF AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD, PURCHASER FAILS TO CLOSE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY FOR ANY REASON OTHER THAN SELLER’S DEFAULT, A FAILURE

 

26


OF A PURCHASER’S CONDITION PRECEDENT OR AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 18 HEREOF, SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY SHALL BE TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RECEIVE FROM ESCROW COMPANY THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE EXECUTION DATE THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT REPRESENTS THE PARTIES’ REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS SECTION 19(b) WILL NOT LIMIT SELLER’S RIGHT TO RECEIVE REIMBURSEMENT OF REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES OR COSTS, NOR WAIVE OR AFFECT PURCHASER’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS AND SELLER’S RIGHTS TO THOSE INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE PAYMENT OF THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER.

32


undertaking, indemnity or agreement contained in any of the Purchase Documents, including any Seller Certificate (collectively, “Seller’s Undertakings”) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00) (but at such time as Purchaser is required and actually does increase its Deposit to One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00) as required in Section 3(a) above, then Seller’s and the Seller Parties’ liability shall be increased to One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00)) in the aggregate, of all recourse of Purchaser under the Purchase Documents; (ii) neither Purchaser nor any of its successors or assigns shall have any recourse against Seller or any of the Seller Parties with respect to the Seller’s Undertakings unless the aggregate amount of all actual damages suffered by Purchaser or its successors and assigns (net of any insurance proceeds received by such party or parties) exceeds Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) and then in such event, Seller shall only be responsible for the amount up to Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($750,000.00) or One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00), as the case may be, and (iii) no personal liability or personal responsibility of any sort with respect to any of Seller’s Undertakings or any alleged breach thereof is assumed by, or shall at any time be asserted or enforceable against, Seller or any of the Seller Parties except with respect to Seller and then subject to the limitations in clauses (i) and (ii) above. This Section 22(s) shall in no way limit Purchaser’s right to pursue specific performance pursuant to Section 19(a) and shall not limit Seller’s liability to Purchaser in connection with the post-Closing reconciliation described in Paragraphs (b) and (d) of Exhibit O.

(t) 1031 Exchange. Seller and/or Purchaser may desire to effect a tax-deferred like kind exchange (including without limitation in the case of Purchaser a so-called reverse 1031 tax deferred exchange) with respect to its sale or purchase, respectively, of the Property (in either case “Exchange”) pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and any similar provisions of state or local law. If either party elects to effect an Exchange (the “Exchangor”), then, subject to the terms and provisions of this Section, the other party (the “Non-Exchangor”) shall reasonably cooperate with the Exchangor in effecting the Exchange; provided, however, in no event shall the Non-Exchangor be required to incur any material delays, expenses or risk of ownership, title or conveyance in connection with such cooperation. The Exchange will be structured by the Exchangor at its sole cost and expense such that the Non-Exchangor will have no obligation to acquire or enter into the chain of title to any property other than the Property. The Non-Exchangor’s sole obligation in connection with the Exchange shall be to review and execute certain customary documentation reasonably acceptable to the Non-Exchangor necessary to effectuate the Exchange in accordance with the foregoing and the applicable rules governing such exchanges. The Non-Exchangor shall not by this Agreement or acquiescence to the Exchange have its rights under this Agreement modified or diminished in any material manner or be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the Exchangor that the Exchange in fact complies with Section 1031 of the Code. The Non-Exchangor shall have the right to review and approve any documents to be executed by the Non-Exchangor in connection with the Exchange; provided, such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Non-Exchangor shall have no obligation to execute any documents or to undertake any action by which the Non-Exchangor would or might incur any material liability or obligation not otherwise provided for in the other provisions of this Agreement. Neither the conveyance of title to the Property by the Exchangor’s

designated intermediary or Qualified Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (if applicable) nor the Exchange shall amend or modify the representations, warranties and covenants of the Exchangor to the Non-Exchangor under this Agreement or the survival thereof pursuant to this Agreement in any material respect nor shall any such conveyance or Exchange result in a release of the Exchangor with respect to such representations, warranties and/or covenants. At the Exchangor’s election, the Special Warranty Deed and all closing documents with respect to the Property shall run directly between the Non-Exchangor and either the Exchangor or the Exchangor’s designated intermediary or Qualified Exchange Accommodation Titleholder. The Closing shall not be extended as a result of the Exchange. The Exchangor shall indemnify and hold the Non-Exchangor harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees but excluding costs incurred to review the exchange documents) arising from the Exchange (other than what would have been applicable under this Agreement without the Exchange) which indemnification agreement shall expressly survive the Closing. The Exchangor further acknowledges that the Exchange is at the request and initiation of the Exchangor, and the Non-Exchangor in no manner, expressly or implicitly, participated in or offered tax advice or planning to or for the benefit of the Exchangor. The Exchangor is relying solely upon the advice and counsel of professionals of the Exchangor’s choice in structuring, executing and consummating the Exchange.

(u) Survival of Covenants, Agreements, Representations and Warranties. Except as set forth in Section 6, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into the Special Warranty Deed or other instrument executed or delivered in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.

(v) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

PRORATION METHOD

Prorations, Costs and Expenses.

(a) Prorations and Adjustments. The following adjustments and prorations shall be made as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date (“Proration Date”), as though Purchaser held title to the Property throughout the entire day in which the Closing occurs. Such adjustments and prorations shall be made on the basis of: (i) a 365-day year with respect to Taxes as provided in Section (a)(iii) hereof; and/or (ii) the number of days in the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs with respect to Revenues and Operating Expenses as provided in Sections (a)(i) and (ii), respectively, hereof, subject to the following provisions:

(i) Revenues. All rentals, receipts and other revenues (including, but not limited to, reimbursements for Property Expenses (as defined below), common area maintenance, real and personal property taxes, insurance and other operating expense reimbursements, if applicable, but excluding percentage rent, if applicable) (collectively, the “Revenues”), received by Seller as of the Closing, but which are properly allocable to the period after the Proration Date, shall be credited to Purchaser at the Closing. To the extent there are any Revenues owing to Seller as of the Closing which relate to periods of time prior to the Proration Date, but which have not actually been collected by Seller as of the Closing (“Delinquent Revenues”), Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay to Seller (or give Seller a credit for), the amount of such Delinquent Revenues on the Closing. All Revenues which are received by Seller or Purchaser subsequent to the Closing Date shall be applied: first, to amounts due to Purchaser; and second, to Delinquent Revenues due to Seller. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to promptly remit to the other the amount of any Revenues received and owing to each other pursuant to the provisions of this Section (a)(i). Notwithstanding any provision in this Exhibit O to the contrary, Seller retains its rights to recover Delinquent Revenues, including, without limitation, the right to collect (without eviction) the same from the Tenants and/or third parties responsible for payment of such Delinquent Revenues and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with Seller’s efforts to do so.

(ii) Operating Expenses. All costs, fees and expenses (other than Taxes) relating to the operation, management and repair of the Property, excluding Leasing Costs (collectively, the “Operating Expenses”), shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing as of the Proration Date.

(iii) Real and Personal Property Taxes. (A) All general and special real and personal property taxes and assessments (collectively, the “Taxes”), based on the regular tax bill for the current fiscal year (or, if such tax bill has not been issued as of the date of the Closing, the regular tax bill for the fiscal year preceding the current fiscal year) shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing as of the Proration Date. Without limiting the foregoing, any and all accrued and unpaid supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments that relate to any time period prior to the Proration Date shall be the responsibility of Seller and, if not paid prior to or at Closing, shall be credited to the Purchaser at Closing, and any and all supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments that relate to any time period

 

O-1


on or after the Proration Date shall be the responsibility of Purchaser and if paid by Seller prior to or at Closing, shall be credited to Seller at Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event any supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments are levied prior to Closing, but are due and payable in one or more installments subsequent to the Closing, such supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments shall be allocated on a pro rata basis over the applicable payment period in question and prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Proration Date. Notwithstanding any of the terms and conditions to the contrary contained in this Section (a)(iii), in the event any such Taxes are paid for directly by the Tenants to the applicable taxing authorities, such Taxes shall be not prorated between Seller or Purchaser

(iv) Percentage Rent. Any percentage rent payable under each Lease for the year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Proration Date. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that sufficient information to enable Seller and Purchaser to prorate percentage rent will not be available as of the Closing. Accordingly, the proration contemplated in this Section (a)(iv) shall be conducted subsequent to the Closing pursuant to Section (d) hereof.

(v) Assumed Contracts. All Operating Expenses accruing under, arising out of or relating to any of the Contracts assumed by Purchaser shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing as of the Proration Date.

(b) Property Expense Pass-Throughs. If the Leases require the Tenants to reimburse Seller for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes (collectively, the “Property Expenses”), in the event such Property Expenses are reconciled under the terms of the Leases at the end of the calendar year in which the Closing takes place, to reflect the actual Property Expenses incurred for the calendar year, such calendar year shall be deemed to constitute the “Reconciliation Period” for purposes of this Agreement and the following provisions shall apply:

(i) On or before the Closing, Seller shall be responsible for computing and comparing on a Tenant-by-Tenant basis and delivering to Purchaser a written statement setting forth: (A) the amount of Property Expenses incurred and actually paid by Seller with respect to the Reconciliation Period; and (B) the amount of Property Expenses actually received by Seller from the Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases with respect to the Reconciliation Period.

(ii) Within sixty (60) Calendar Days following the expiration of the first Reconciliation Period, Purchaser shall compute the actual Property Expenses incurred and paid by Seller and Purchaser and the actual Property Expenses reimbursed (or not reimbursed) by the Tenants and/or third parties to Seller and/or Purchaser with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense Reconciliation”). Following the completion of the Property Expense Reconciliation, Purchaser shall submit the same to Seller for Seller’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event Seller fails to approve or disapprove of the Property Expense Reconciliation within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of the same, which failure continues for five (5) Business Days following delivery to Seller of a second written notice, such Property Expense Reconciliation shall be

 

O-2


deemed approved by Seller. Following the approval (or deemed approval) by Seller of the Property Expense Reconciliation, Purchaser shall forward the Property Expense Reconciliation to the applicable Tenants. Purchaser hereby covenants to use reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of the Leases which require the Tenants and/or third parties to reimburse the landlord for Property Expenses with respect to the Reconciliation Period. To the extent Purchaser or Seller receives any such Property Expense reimbursement payments with respect to the Reconciliation Period, the same shall constitute Revenues and shall be paid to Seller or Purchaser in the manner contemplated in Section (a)(i) hereof.

(iii) Following the completion of the Property Expense Reconciliation, if the Property Expenses incurred and paid by Seller for that portion of the Reconciliation Period in question preceding the Closing exceed the reimbursed Property Expenses actually received by Seller from the Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense Reimbursement Shortfall”), Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to such Property Expense Reimbursement Shortfall to the extent that Purchaser shall have collected and received such identifiable amounts from the Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases. If the reimbursed Property Expenses received by Seller from the Tenants under the Leases with respect to the Reconciliation Period preceding the Closing exceed the Property Expenses incurred and paid by Seller with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense Reimbursement Surplus”), then Seller shall pay an amount equal to such Property Expense Reimbursement Surplus to Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of the Property Expense Reconciliation. Upon Seller’s payment to Purchaser of any such Property Expense Reimbursement Surplus, Purchaser shall be obligated to reimburse or credit the Tenants for such Property Expense Reimbursement Surplus as required under their respective Leases.

(iv) Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with any disputes or claims by Tenants concerning the calculation of Property Expenses during the Reconciliation Period.

(c) Security Deposits; Leasing Commissions and Tenant Inducement Costs. All Security Deposits held by Seller under the Leases shall be credited to Purchaser at the Closing. With respect to the existing Leases, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive a credit against the Purchase Price at the Closing for: (i) all Tenant Inducement Costs which arise or accrue after the Closing; and (ii) all unpaid Leasing Costs. Furthermore, any Approved Leasing Costs/Tenant Inducement Costs previously paid by Seller shall be payable by Purchaser to Seller at Closing.

(d) Final Accounting. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that, on the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser may not have sufficient information to conduct and complete a final proration of all items subject to proration pursuant to this Exhibit O. Accordingly, Seller and Purchaser agree that, as soon as is reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser shall make a final accounting of all items relating to the Property to be prorated between Seller and Purchaser pursuant to this Exhibit O. In conjunction with the performance of such final accounting, following a request from Seller, Purchaser shall provide Seller with copies of all monthly and other statements sent to the Tenants itemizing

 

O-3


amounts owing under the Leases by the Tenants (together with copies of invoices, statements and other supporting documentation evidencing such expenditures and tenant ledgers and related documentation evidencing how Revenues were applied, all as reasonably requested by Seller). In the event it is determined, pursuant to such final accounting, that any amounts are due and owing by Seller to Purchaser, then Seller shall cause such amounts to be paid to Purchaser within ten (10) Calendar Days after such final accounting is completed. In the event it is determined, pursuant to such final accounting, that any amounts are due and owing by Purchaser to Seller, then Purchaser shall cause such amounts to be paid to Seller within ten (10) Calendar Days after such final accounting is completed. All unpaid amounts shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the day such amounts are due until the day such amounts are paid in full.
