(a)    During the Property Approval Period, Purchaser and its agents, representatives, contractors and consultants shall inspect and investigate the Property and shall conduct such tests, evaluations and assessments of the Property as Purchaser deems necessary, appropriate or prudent in any respect and for all purposes in connection with Purchaser’s acquisition of the Property and the consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1 and subject to the obligations set forth in Section 5.3 below, Seller will permit Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives (collectively, the “Licensee Parties”) the right to enter upon the Real Property and Improvements at all reasonable times, during normal business hours, to perform inspections of the Property and communicate with the Tenant; provided, however, Purchaser shall not have the right to communicate with Tenant unless interviews and communications are coordinated through Seller and Seller shall have the right to participate in any such communications. Purchaser will provide to Seller written notice of the intention of Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties to enter the Real Property or Improvements or interview the Tenant at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to such intended entry and specify the intended purpose therefor and the inspections and examinations and Tenant interviews contemplated to be made. At Seller’s option, Seller may be present for any

12


such entry, inspection and communication with the Tenant. No physical or invasive testing or sampling shall be conducted during any such entry by Purchaser or any Licensee Party upon the Real Property without Seller’s specific prior written consent, which consent may be withheld, delayed or conditioned in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. If Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties undertake any borings or other disturbances of the soil, the soil shall be recompacted to its condition as existed immediately before any such borings or other disturbances were undertaken.
(b)    Subject to the obligations set forth in Section 5.3 below, the Licensee Parties shall have the right to communicate directly with the Authorities for any good faith reasonable purpose in connection with this transaction contemplated by this Agreement (so long such communications can be conducted without disclosing the terms of this Agreement).
Section 5.2    Document Review.
(a)    Seller has made available and/or will make available, either via electronic virtual data room, by delivery of materials to Purchaser’s representatives or by access to the Title Company’s data room, the following, to the extent in Seller’s possession, to Purchaser and its authorized agents or representatives for review, inspection, examination, analysis and verification: (i) assessments (special or otherwise), ad valorem and personal property tax bills, covering the three (3) years preceding the Effective Date; (ii) operating statements for calendar year 2012 and year-to-date 2013; (iii) copies of the Tenant Lease, Warranties, Service Contracts and Licenses and Permits; (iv) copies of the most recent environmental reports for the Property commissioned by Seller; (v) copies of Seller’s title policy and survey for the Property; (vi) copies of Operating Expense reconciliations for 2012; and (vii) engineering, mechanical and other drawings, blueprints and specifications and similar documentation relating to the Property (collectively, the “Documents”). “Documents” shall not include (and Seller shall have no obligation to provide written materials requested by Purchaser that constitute) (1) any document or correspondence which would be subject to the attorney-client privilege; (2) any document or item which Seller is contractually or otherwise bound to keep confidential; (3) any documents pertaining to the marketing of the Property for sale to prospective purchasers; (4) any internal memoranda, reports or assessments of Seller or Seller’s Affiliates to the extent relating to Seller’s valuation of the Property; (5) any appraisals of the Property, whether prepared internally by Seller or Seller’s Affiliates or externally; or (6) any materials projecting or relating to the future performance of the Property.
(b)    Purchaser acknowledges that any and all of the Documents may be proprietary and confidential in nature and shall be made available to Purchaser solely to assist Purchaser in determining the feasibility of purchasing the Property. Purchaser agrees not to disclose the contents of the Documents, or any of the provisions, terms or conditions contained therein, to any party outside of Purchaser’s organization other than (i) its attorneys, partners, accountants, consultants, advisors, lenders (including prospective lenders) or investors (collectively, the “Permitted Outside Parties”), or (ii) to the extent Purchaser is required to disclose the same pursuant to a court order, applicable laws or regulations or pursuant to a legal dispute between Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser further agrees that within its organization, or as

13


to Permitted Outside Parties, the Documents will be disclosed and exhibited only to those persons within Purchaser’s organization or to those Permitted Outside Parties who need to know such information in order to advise Purchaser in connection with the feasibility of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Property or the feasibility of any financing of the Property or for auditing purposes. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Documents and other information relating to the leasing arrangements between Seller and the Tenant or prospective tenants are proprietary and confidential in nature. Purchaser agrees not to divulge the contents of such Documents and other information except in strict accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in this Section 5.2. In permitting Purchaser and the Permitted Outside Parties to review the Documents or information to assist Purchaser, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of confidentiality with respect thereto, and no third party benefits or relationships of any kind, either express or implied, have been offered, intended or created by Seller and any such claims are expressly rejected by Seller and waived by Purchaser and the Permitted Outside Parties, for whom, by its execution of this Agreement, Purchaser is acting as an agent with regard to such waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and the Permitted Outside Parties shall not be obligated to keep confidential any Documents that (1) are already in the public domain, (2) are or become generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Purchaser or any Permitted Outside Parties, or (3) are or become available to Purchaser on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Seller who, to Purchaser’s knowledge, is not subject to a confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of secrecy to, Seller prohibiting such disclosure.
(c)    Purchaser shall promptly destroy all copies Purchaser has made (and computer files of same) of any Documents containing confidential information before or after the execution of this Agreement, not later than ten (10) Business Days following the time this Agreement is terminated for any reason, and provide Seller with a certified notice of the completion of such destruction; provided, however, Purchaser (x) will be entitled to retain one copy of the Documents for compliance purposes or for the purposes of defending or maintaining litigation or threatened litigation, subject to the continued application of the provisions of this Section 5.2, and (y) will not be obligated to erase Documents that are contained in an archived computer system made in accordance with its security and/or disaster recovery procedures on the understanding that any such retained Documents shall remain subject to the continued application of the provisions of this Section 5.2.
(d)    Purchaser acknowledges that some of the Documents may have been prepared by third parties and may have been prepared prior to Seller’s ownership of the Property. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in Section 8.1, Seller has not made and does not make any representation or warranty regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Documents or the sources thereof (whether prepared by Seller, Seller’s Affiliates or any other person or entity). Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Documents and is providing the Documents solely as an accommodation to Purchaser.
(e)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser’s obligations under the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall terminate on the

14


earlier to occur of (x) twelve (12) months from the Effective Date, or (y) the Closing Date, if Closing occurs.
Section 5.3    Entry and Inspection Obligations.
(a)    Purchaser agrees that in entering upon and inspecting or examining the Property and communicating with the Tenant, Purchaser and the other Licensee Parties will take all reasonable steps necessary to not: unreasonably disturb the Tenant or interfere with its use of the Property pursuant to the Tenant Lease; unreasonably interfere with the operation and maintenance of the Property; damage any part of the Property or any personal property owned or held by Tenant or any other person or entity; injure or otherwise cause bodily harm to Seller or the Tenant, or to any of their respective agents, guests, invitees, contractors and employees, or to any other person or entity; permit any liens to attach to the Property by reason of the exercise of Purchaser’s rights under this Article V; communicate with the Tenant except in accordance with this Article V; or reveal or disclose any information obtained concerning the Property and the Documents to anyone outside Purchaser’s organization and the Permitted Outside Parties, except in accordance with the confidentiality standards set forth in Section 5.2(b). Purchaser will: (i) maintain or cause those entering the Property to maintain commercial general liability (occurrence) insurance in an amount not less than Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) and on terms (including coverage for an “insured contract” with respect to the indemnity in Section 5.3(b)) reasonably satisfactory to Seller covering any accident arising in connection with the presence or activities of Purchaser or the other Licensee Parties on the Property, and deliver to Seller a certificate of insurance verifying such coverage and Seller and its property manager (Hines Interests Limited Partnership) being named as an additional insured on such coverage prior to entry upon the Property; (ii) promptly pay when due the costs of all inspections, entries, samplings, tests and examinations conducted by Purchaser and/or any Licensee Parties with regard to the Property; and (iii) promptly restore the Property to its condition as existed immediately prior to any such inspection, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings and tests. Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed or construed as Seller’s consent to any further physical testing or sampling with respect to the Property after the date hereof.
(b)    Purchaser hereby indemnifies, defends and holds Seller and its members, partners, agents, officers, directors, employees, successors, assigns and Affiliates harmless from and against any and all liens, claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities, demands, suits, and obligations, together with all losses, penalties, actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to any of the foregoing (including but not limited to court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any inspections, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings or tests conducted by Purchaser or any Licensee Party, whether prior to or after the date hereof, with respect to the Property or any violation of the provisions of this Section 5.3; except to the extent arising due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or Seller’s members, partners, agents, officers, directors, employees, successors, assigns or Affiliates; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any claims, damages or other costs arising by virtue of the mere discovery of any pre-existing condition at the Property by or in connection with any inspections, investigations, examinations, entries, samplings or tests conducted by Purchaser or any Licensee Party, but only to the extent such parties do not exacerbate such pre-existing condition.

15


(c)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Closing nor a termination of this Agreement will terminate Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.3, which shall survive such Closing or termination.
Section 5.4    Property Approval Period. Between November 20, 2013 and 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the Contingency Date (the “Property Approval Period”), Purchaser shall have the right to review and investigate the Property and the items set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 above (collectively, the “Due Diligence Items”). Purchaser, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, may determine whether or not the Property is acceptable to Purchaser within the Property Approval Period. If Purchaser determines to proceed with the purchase of the Property in accordance with this Agreement, then Purchaser shall, prior to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the Contingency Date, either (a) notify Seller in writing (an “Approval Notice”) that Purchaser has approved the matters described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 above, which determination shall be made by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, or (b) notify Seller in writing (a “Termination Notice”) that Purchaser elects, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.4. If Purchaser fails to timely deliver either an Approval Notice or a Termination Notice pursuant to the foregoing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.4. Purchaser shall pay any cancellation fees or charges of Title Company, and except for Purchaser’s indemnity and confidentiality obligations under this Agreement which expressly survive termination of this Agreement, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations to one another under this Agreement.
Section 5.5    Sale “As Is”. THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER, THIS AGREEMENT REFLECTS THE MUTUAL AGREEMENT OF SELLER AND PURCHASER, AND PURCHASER HAS CONDUCTED (OR WILL CONDUCT PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE PROPERTY APPROVAL PERIOD) ITS OWN INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION OF THE PROPERTY. OTHER THAN ANY SPECIFIC MATTERS REPRESENTED IN SECTION 8.1 HEREOF OR IN ANY OF THE CLOSING DOCUMENTS (AS MAY BE LIMITED HEREIN, INCLUDING BY SECTION 16.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT), BY WHICH ALL OF THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 5.5 ARE LIMITED, PURCHASER HAS NOT RELIED UPON AND WILL NOT RELY UPON, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF SELLER OR ANY OF SELLER’S AFFILIATES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES, AND PURCHASER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NO SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES HAVE BEEN MADE. SELLER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS, AND NEITHER IT NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES NOR ANY OTHER PERSON IS MAKING, ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR ASSURANCE WHATSOEVER TO PURCHASER AND, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.1 HEREOF OR IN ANY OF THE CLOSING DOCUMENTS, NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE BY SELLER OR RELIED UPON BY PURCHASER WITH RESPECT TO THE STATUS OF TITLE TO OR THE MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, CONDITION, DESIGN OR MARKETABILITY OF THE PROPERTY, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO (A) ANY IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, (B) ANY IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, (C) ANY IMPLIED

Purchaser represents that it is a knowledgeable, experienced and sophisticated purchaser of real estate, and that it is relying solely on its own expertise and that of Purchaser’s consultants in purchasing the Property. Upon expiration of the Property Approval Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have conducted such inspections, investigations and other independent examinations of the Property and related matters as Purchaser deems necessary, including but not limited to the physical and environmental conditions thereof, and will rely upon same and not upon any statements of Seller (excluding the limited specific matters represented by Seller herein or in the Closing Documents, as limited by Section 16.1 of this Agreement) or of any Affiliate, officer, director, employee, agent or attorney of Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that all information obtained by Purchaser was obtained from a variety of sources and, except as set forth in this Agreement, Seller will not be deemed to have represented or warranted the completeness, truth or accuracy of any of the Documents or other such information heretofore or hereafter furnished to Purchaser. Upon Closing, Purchaser will assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, adverse physical and environmental conditions, may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s inspections and investigations. Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable Environmental Laws relating to past, present and future environmental health conditions on, or resulting from the ownership or operation of, the Property. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller will sell and convey to Purchaser, and Purchaser will accept the Property, “AS IS, WHERE IS,” with all faults. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that there are no oral agreements, warranties or representations, collateral to or affecting the Property, by Seller, an Affiliate of Seller, any agent of Seller or any third party. Seller is not liable or bound in any manner by any oral or written statements, representations or information pertaining to the Property furnished by any real estate broker, agent, employee, servant or other person, unless the same are specifically set forth or referred to herein. Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchase Price reflects the “AS IS, WHERE IS” nature of this sale and any faults, liabilities, defects or other adverse matters that may be associated with the Property. Purchaser, with Purchaser’s counsel, has fully reviewed the disclaimers and waivers set forth in this Agreement, and understands the significance and effect thereof. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the disclaimers and other agreements set forth herein are an integral part of this Agreement, and that Seller would not have agreed to sell the Property to Purchaser for the Purchase Price without the disclaimer and other agreements set forth in this Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Section 5.5 will expressly survive the Closing and will not merge with the provisions of any closing documents.

(e)    Purchaser and Seller further acknowledge that Seller may be required to disclose if the Property lies within the following natural hazard areas or zones: (i) a special flood hazard area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (California Civil Code Section 1103(c)(1)); (ii) an area of potential flooding (California Government Code Section 8589.4); (iii) a very high fire hazard severity zone (California Government Code Section 51178 et seq.); (iv) a wild land area that may contain substantial forest fire risks and hazards (Public Resources Code Section 4135); (v) earthquake fault zone (Public Resources Code Section 2622); or (vi) a seismic hazard zone (Public Resources Code Section 2696) (sometimes all of the preceding are herein collectively called the "Natural Hazard Matters").

The written report prepared by the Natural Hazard Expert regarding the results of its full examination will fully and completely discharge Seller from its disclosure obligations referred to herein, if and to the extent any such obligations exist, and, for the purpose of this Agreement, the provisions of Civil Code section 1103.4 regarding non-liability of Seller for errors or omissions not within its personal knowledge shall be deemed to apply and the Natural Hazard Expert shall be deemed to be an expert, dealing with matters within the scope

19


of its expertise with respect to the examination and written report regarding the natural hazards referred to above. Purchaser agrees to provide Seller with a written acknowledgment of its receipt of the Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement.

(g)    Survival. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive either (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into the provisions of any closing documents, or (ii) any termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE VI
TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS
Section 6.1    Survey. Within two (2) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an updated survey for the Real Property (as may be revised, the “Updated Survey”). Purchaser may obtain revisions to the Updated Survey at Purchaser’s cost and expense.
Section 6.2    Title and Survey Review.
(d)    Purchaser shall cause the Title Company to promptly furnish or otherwise make available to Purchaser a preliminary title commitment for the Real Property (the “PTR”), and copies of all underlying title documents described in the PTR. Purchaser shall have until December 16, 2013 (the “Title Notice Date”) to provide written notice (the “Title Notice”) to Seller and Title Company of any matters shown on the PTR and/or the Updated Survey which are not satisfactory to Purchaser. If Seller has not received such written notice from Purchaser by the Title Notice Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have unconditionally approved of the condition of title to the Property and the Updated Survey, subject to Seller’s obligations set forth in Section 6.2(c) below. Except as expressly provided herein, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to expend or agree to expend any funds, to undertake or agree to undertake any obligations, or otherwise to cure or agree to cure any title objections. To the extent Purchaser timely delivers a Title Notice, then Seller shall deliver, no later than December 18, 2013, written notice to Purchaser and Title Company identifying which disapproved items, if any, Seller shall undertake to cure (by either having the same removed or by obtaining affirmative insurance over the same as part of the final Title Policy) (“Seller’s Response”). If Seller does not deliver a Seller’s Response prior to such date, Seller shall be deemed to have elected to not remove or otherwise cure any exceptions disapproved by Purchaser. If Seller elects, or is deemed to have elected, not to remove or otherwise cure an exception disapproved in Purchaser’s Title Notice, Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Contingency Date to (i) deliver a written Termination Notice terminating this Agreement to Seller and Title Company terminating this Agreement as set forth in Section 5.4, or (ii) waive any such objection to the PTR and the Updated Survey (whereupon such objections shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions for all purposes hereof). If Seller and Title Company have not received written notice from Purchaser by the Contingency Date, such failure shall be deemed Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement, unless Purchaser

20


has delivered an Approval Notice under Section 5.4, in which case Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived of all such objections to the PTR and the Updated Survey.
(e)    Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing, notify Seller in writing (the “Gap Notice”) of any objections to title (i) raised by the Title Company between the expiration of the Property Approval Period and the Closing, (ii) not disclosed in writing by the Title Company to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Property Approval Period, and (iii) not disclosed in writing by Seller to Purchaser and the Title Company prior to the expiration of the Property Approval Period (“New Exceptions”); provided that Purchaser must notify Seller of any objection to any such New Exception prior to the date which is three (3) Business Days after being made aware of the existence of such New Exception. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller a notice of objections on or before such date, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any objection to the New Exceptions, and the New Exceptions will be included as Permitted Exceptions. Seller will have two (2) Business Days from the receipt of Purchaser’s notice (and, if necessary, Seller may extend the Closing Date to provide for such two (2) Business Day period and for two (2) Business Days following such period for Purchaser’s response), within which time Seller may, but is under no obligation to, remove or otherwise obtain affirmative insurance over the objectionable New Exceptions, or commit to remove or otherwise obtain affirmative insurance over the same at or prior to Closing. If, within the two (2) Business Day period, Seller does not remove or otherwise obtain affirmative insurance over the objectionable New Exceptions, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement upon delivering a Termination Notice to Seller no later than the date that is two (2) Business Days following expiration of the two (2) day cure period, in which case Purchaser shall be entitled to return of the Earnest Money Deposit. If Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement in the manner set forth above, the New Exceptions (except those Seller has removed or otherwise affirmatively insured over, or committed to do the same as set forth above) will be included as Permitted Exceptions.
(f)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.2 to the contrary, Seller will be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Real Property and Improvements relating to (i) liens and security interests securing any loan to Seller, (ii) any other liens or security interests created by documents executed by Seller to secure monetary obligations, other than liens for ad valorem taxes and assessments for the current calendar year, and (iii) encumbrances that have been voluntarily placed against the Property by Seller after the Effective Date without Purchaser’s prior written consent.
Section 6.3    Title Insurance. At the Closing, and as a condition thereto, the Title Company shall issue to Purchaser an ALTA extended coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance together with such available endorsements thereto that Purchaser may reasonably require and that the Title Company has agreed to have prior to the Contingency Date (the “Title Policy”) with liability in the amount of the Purchase Price, showing title to the Real Property vested in the Purchaser, subject only to (i) the pre-printed standard exceptions in such Title Policy (other than exceptions that can be removed from such Title Policy by Seller’s delivery of a customary owner’s title affidavit or gap indemnity), (ii) exceptions approved or deemed approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2 above, (iii) the Tenant Lease, (iv) any taxes and assessments for the year of Closing and for any other year, in each case, if not yet due and payable as of the Closing, (v) any liens or

21


claims of liens for work, service, labor or materials performed or supplied by, for or on behalf of any Tenant under the Tenant Lease, (vi) all matters shown on the Updated Survey, or that would be shown on any updates thereto, and (vii) any exceptions arising from Purchaser’s actions (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”). In the event Purchaser elects not to pay for any additional premium for the ALTA extended coverage policy, then the Title Policy to be issued as of the Closing shall be a standard ALTA Owner's Policy of Title Insurance.

(k)    Service Contracts. Not enter into, amend, or renew the term of, any service contract, other than in the ordinary course of business, unless such service contract is terminable on thirty (30) days (or less) prior notice without penalty or unless Purchaser consents thereto in writing, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Seller shall terminate all Service Contracts, other than the Assumed Service Contracts, on or prior to Closing. The Assumed Service Contracts will be assigned to Purchaser at Closing.

It will be a condition to Closing that Seller obtain and deliver to Purchaser, from Tenant an executed Acceptable Estoppel Certificate. “Acceptable Estoppel Certificate” is an estoppel certificate in substantially the form of the estoppel certificate attached hereto as Exhibit B (or in the form prescribed by, permitted under, or required by the Tenant Lease) which (1) is addressed to Purchaser, (2) is dated not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing Date, (3) has all blanks completed or marked not applicable, as appropriate, (4) has all exhibits completed and attached, as applicable, and (5) does not indicate (x) any Tenant Lease amendment, assignment or subletting that was not previously provided by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.2(a) and which is not reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, or (y) any alleged default or unfulfilled obligation on the part of the landlord or adverse claim against landlord not previously disclosed in writing to Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall Seller’s failure to obtain the Acceptable Estoppel Certificate in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.2 constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement. Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy for a failure of the condition to obtain the Acceptable Estoppel Certificate shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money Deposit.
Section 7.3    OFAC. Pursuant to United States Presidential Executive Order 13224 (“Executive Order”), each party is required to ensure that it does not transact business with persons or entities determined to have committed, or to pose a risk of committing or supporting, terrorist acts and those persons (i) described in Section 1 of the Executive Order or (ii) listed in the “Alphabetical Listing of Blocked Persons, Specially Designated Nationals, Specially Designated Terrorists, Specially Designated Global Terrorists, Foreign Terrorist Organizations, and Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers” published by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), 31 C.F.R.

ARTICLE IX
CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY
Section 9.1    Significant Casualty. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Real Property and Improvements is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser of such casualty. Purchaser will have the option, in the event all or any Significant Portion of the Real Property or Improvements is so destroyed or damaged, to terminate this Agreement upon notice to Seller given not later than ten (10) days after receipt of Seller’s notice, unless, as to a casualty affecting a Significant Portion described in clause (i)(y) of the definition of Significant Portion, Seller elects in its sole discretion to credit against the Purchase Price any such excess amount so as to eliminate the shortfall described. If this Agreement is terminated, the Earnest Money Deposit will be returned to Purchaser upon Purchaser’s compliance with Section 4.6 and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights or obligations to the other hereunder except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction, but (a) Seller will assign and turn over to Purchaser all of the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty (excluding any proceeds of insurance that are payable on account of any business interruption, rental insurance or similar coverage intended to compensate Seller for loss of rental or other income from the Property attributable to periods prior to the Closing), and (b) the parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that Purchaser will receive a credit against cash due at Closing for the amount of the deductible on such insurance policy less any amounts reasonably expended by Seller to collect any such insurance proceeds or to make such repairs or to remedy any unsafe conditions at the Property, other than repairs which are the responsibility of Tenant under the Tenant Lease.
Section 9.2    Casualty of Less Than a Significant Portion. If less than a Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements is damaged as aforesaid, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement and Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction, but (a) Seller will assign and turn over to Purchaser all of the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty (excluding any proceeds of insurance that are payable on account of any business interruption, rental insurance or similar coverage intended to compensate Seller for loss of rental or other income from the Property attributable to periods prior to the Closing), and (b) the parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that Purchaser will receive a credit against cash due at Closing for the amount of the deductible on such insurance policy less any amounts reasonably expended by Seller to collect any such insurance proceeds or to make such repairs or to remedy

27


any unsafe conditions at the Property, other than repairs which are the responsibility of Tenant under the Tenant Lease.
Section 9.3    Condemnation of Property. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser if, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Real Property and Improvements is subject to a condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation or if Seller shall receive an official notice from any governmental authority having eminent domain power over the Real Property and Improvements of its intention to take, by eminent domain proceeding, all or any portion of the Real Property and Improvements. In the event of condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of all or any Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements or if Seller shall receive an official notice from any governmental authority having eminent domain power over the Real Property and Improvements of its intention to take, by eminent domain proceeding, all or any Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements, prior to the Closing, Purchaser will have the option, by providing Seller written notice within ten (10) days after receipt of Seller’s notice of such condemnation or sale, of terminating Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement or electing to have this Agreement remain in full force and effect. In the event Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence or if less than a Significant Portion of the Real Property and Improvements is the subject of a condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation or such official notice, Seller will assign to Purchaser any and all claims for the proceeds of such condemnation or sale to the extent the same are applicable to the Real Property, Improvements and Seller’s interest in the Tenant Lease, and Purchaser will take title to the Property with the assignment of such proceeds and subject to such condemnation and without reduction of the Purchase Price. Should Purchaser elect to terminate Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement under the provisions of this Section 9.3, the Earnest Money Deposit will be returned to Purchaser upon Purchaser’s compliance with Section 4.6 and neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further obligation under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is instituted (or notice of same is given) solely for the taking of any subsurface rights for utility easements or for any right-of-way easement, and the surface may, after such taking, be used in substantially the same manner as though such rights have not been taken, Purchaser will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement as to any part of the Property (unless Tenant would have a right to terminate the Tenant Lease or abate Rentals in whole or in part and such right is not waived prior to Closing), but any award resulting therefrom will be assigned to Purchaser at Closing and will be the exclusive property of Purchaser upon Closing.
ARTICLE X
CLOSING
Section 10.1    Closing. The Closing of the sale of the Property by Seller to Purchaser will occur on the Closing Date through the escrow established with the Title Company. Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date to a date no later than February 13, 2014 to the extent deemed necessary by Seller to satisfy Closing conditions. At Closing, the events set forth in this Article X will occur, it being understood that the performance or tender of performance of all matters set forth in this Article X are mutually concurrent conditions which may be waived by the party for whose benefit they are intended.

(f)    The Tenant Deposit, at Seller’s option, either (i) in the form of a cashier’s check issued by a bank reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, or (ii) as part of an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(h)    All original Assumed Service Contracts, Licenses and Permits, Warranties, Development Materials and the Tenant Lease, in each case, to the extent in Seller’s possession and control;

(l)    Such other documents as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the consummation of the transactions which are the subject of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Closing Statement and a customary owner’s title affidavit duly executed and delivered.
Section 10.4    Prorations.
(e)    Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Time”), the following (collectively, the “Proration Items”): real estate and personal property taxes and assessments for the year in which Closing occurs, utility bills (except as hereinafter provided), collected Rentals (subject to the terms of (b) below) and operating expenses payable by the owner of the Property (on the basis of a 365 day year, actual days elapsed). Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Closing Time, and Purchaser will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Closing Time.

30


Such preliminary estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by Title Company and submitted to Seller and Purchaser for approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement, once agreed upon, shall be signed by Purchaser and Seller and delivered to the Title Company for purposes of making the preliminary proration adjustment at Closing subject to the final cash settlement provided for below. The preliminary proration shall be paid at Closing by Purchaser to Seller (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Purchaser in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Time, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Purchaser. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums (except to the extent covered by the proration of Operating Expense Recoveries), and Seller’s insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Time, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills (except to the extent covered by the proration of Operating Expense Recoveries). Seller will be entitled to all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Purchaser will be obligated to make its own arrangements for deposits with the utility providers. A final reconciliation of Proration Items shall be made by Purchaser and Seller within six (6) months after Closing; provided that such reconciliation, as it relates to real estate taxes, shall be made within thirty (30) days following the issuance of the tax bills for the Real Property. The provisions of this Section 10.4 will survive the Closing for six (6) months, and in the event any items subject to proration hereunder are discovered within such 6-month period, the same shall be promptly prorated by the parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.4.
(f)    Purchaser will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Closing Time) of all Rentals previously paid to and collected by Seller and attributable to any period following the Closing Time. After the Closing, Seller will cause to be paid or turned over to Purchaser all Rentals, if any, received by Seller after Closing and properly attributable to any period following the Closing Time. “Rentals” as used herein includes fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, percentage rentals, escalation rentals (which include Tenant’s proportionate share of building operation and maintenance costs and expenses as provided for under the Tenant Lease, to the extent the same exceeds any expense stop specified in the Tenant Lease), retroactive rentals, all administrative charges, utility charges, tenant or real property association dues, storage rentals, special event proceeds, temporary rents, telephone receipts, locker rentals, vending machine receipts and other sums and charges payable to Seller or its successor by Tenant under the Tenant Lease or from other occupants or users of the Property, excluding specific tenant billings which are governed by Section 10.4(d) below. Rentals are “Delinquent” if payment thereof has not been made on or before the due date under the Tenant Lease. Delinquent Rentals will not be prorated. Purchaser agrees to use good faith collection procedures with respect to the collection of any Delinquent Rentals for six (6) months after Closing, but Purchaser will have no liability for the failure to collect any Delinquent Rentals payable to Seller and will not be required to conduct lock-outs or take any other legal action or incur any material expense to enforce collection of any

31


such amounts owed to Seller by the Tenant. Any Rentals received by Purchaser or Seller within one (1) year after Closing (the “Delinquent Rental Proration Period”) from the Tenant (excluding tenant specific billings for tenant work orders and other specific services as described in and governed by Section 10.4(d) below, which shall be payable to and belong to Seller in all events) will be applied first to amounts currently owed by the Tenant to Purchaser (including without limitation Delinquent Rentals attributable to the period after the Closing Time), then to Rentals for the month of Closing, and then to any collection costs of Purchaser related to the Tenant, and then to prior delinquencies owed by the Tenant to Seller. In no event shall Seller initiate litigation or other legal action after the Closing Date to pursue collection of Delinquent Rentals. Any sums collected by Purchaser and due Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller, and any sums collected by Seller and due Purchaser will be promptly remitted to Purchaser.
(g)    Seller will prepare a reconciliation as of the Closing Time of the amounts of all billings and charges for operating expenses and taxes in excess of the applicable base year, if any, specified in the Tenant Lease (collectively, “Operating Expense Recoveries”) for calendar year 2014. If less amounts have been collected from Tenant for Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2014 than would have been owed by the Tenant under the Tenant Lease if the reconciliations under the Tenant Lease were completed as of the Closing Time based on the operating expenses and taxes incurred by Seller for calendar year 2014 up to the Closing Time (as prorated pursuant to Section 10.4(a) above), Purchaser will pay such difference to Seller if and when collected from Tenant and subject to Section 10.4(b) with respect to application of Rentals received after Closing. If more amounts have been collected from the Tenant for Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2014 than would have been owed by the Tenant under the Tenant Lease if the reconciliations under the Tenant Lease were completed as of the Closing Time based on the operating expenses and taxes incurred by Seller for calendar year 2014 up to the Closing Time (as prorated pursuant to Section 10.4(a) above), Seller will pay to Purchaser at Closing as a credit against the Purchase Price such excess collected amount. Purchaser and Seller agree that such proration of Operating Expense Recoveries at Closing for calendar year 2014 will fully relieve Seller from any responsibility to the Tenant or Purchaser for such matters subject to Seller’s and Purchaser’s right and obligation to finalize prorations within six (6) months after Closing solely to make adjustments necessary to the extent estimates used in the calculation of such reconciliation at Closing differ from actual bills received after Closing for those items covered by such reconciliation at Closing or to correct any errors. In this regard, Purchaser will be solely responsible, from and after Closing, for (i) collecting from the Tenant the amount of any outstanding Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2014 for periods before and after Closing, but Purchaser will have no liability for the failure to collect any Operating Expense Recoveries for the period prior to Closing and will not be required to conduct lock-outs or take any other legal action or incur any material expense to enforce collection of any such amounts owed to Seller, and (ii) where appropriate, reimbursing Tenant for amounts attributable to Operating Expense Recoveries for calendar year 2014, as may be necessary based on annual reconciliations for Operating Expense Recoveries for such calendar year.
(h)    With respect to specific tenant billings for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of the Tenant or other specific services, which are collected by Purchaser or Seller after the Closing Time but relate to any such specific services rendered by Seller or its property manager prior to the Closing Time and which are identified on the Tenant’s

32


payment as relating to such specific services or which are clearly identifiable as being payment for any such specific services, Purchaser shall cause such collected amounts to be paid to Seller, or Seller may retain such payment if such payment is received by Seller after the Closing Time.
Section 10.5    Delivery of Real Property. Upon completion of the Closing, Seller will deliver to Purchaser possession of the Real Property and Improvements, subject to the Tenant Lease and the Permitted Exceptions.
Section 10.6    Costs of Title Company and Closing Costs. Costs of the Title Company and other Closing costs incurred in connection with the Closing will be allocated as follows:
(a)    Purchaser will pay (i) all premium and other incremental costs for obtaining an extended coverage ALTA title policy and any endorsements to the Title Policy, (ii) all premiums and other costs for any mortgagee policy of title insurance, including but not limited to any endorsements or deletions, (iii) Purchaser’s attorney’s fees, (iv) ½ of the Title Company’s escrow and closing fees, if any, (v) any mortgage recording tax or recording fees, (vi) 1/2 of any city documentary transfer taxes, and (vii) any revisions to the Updated Surveys;
(b)    Seller will pay (i) the premium for the base cost of a standard coverage ALTA title policy and the cost of any endorsement with respect to matters for which Seller has agreed to obtain affirmative insurance pursuant to Section 6.2, (ii) the cost of the Updated Survey, (iii) Seller’s attorneys’ fees, (iv) any county documentary transfer taxes, (v) ½ of the Title Company’s escrow and closing fees, if any, and (vi) 1/2 of any city documentary transfer taxes;
(c)    Any other costs and expenses of Closing not provided for in this Section 10.6 shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with the custom in the county in which the Real Property is located; and
(d)    If the Closing does not occur on or before the Closing Date for any reason whatsoever, the costs incurred through the date of termination will be borne by the party incurring same.
Section 10.7    Post Closing Delivery of Tenant Notice Letter. Immediately following Closing, Seller will deliver to Tenant (via messenger or certified mail, return receipt requested) a written notice executed by Purchaser and Seller (i) acknowledging the sale of the Property to Purchaser, (ii) acknowledging that Purchaser has received and is responsible for the Tenant Deposit (specifying the exact amount of the Tenant Deposit) and (iii) indicating that rent should thereafter be paid to Purchaser and giving instructions therefor (the “Tenant Notice Letter”). Seller shall provide to Purchaser a copy of the Tenant Notice Letter promptly after delivery of same, and proof of delivery of same promptly after such proof is available. This Section 10.7 shall survive Closing.


33


ARTICLE XI
BROKERAGE
Section 11.1    Brokers. Seller agrees to pay to Eastdil Secured (“Broker”) a real estate commission at Closing (but only in the event of Closing in strict compliance with this Agreement) pursuant to separate agreements. Other than as stated in the first sentence of this Section 11.1, Purchaser and Seller represent to the other that no real estate brokers, agents or finders’ fees or commissions are due or will be due or arise in conjunction with the execution of this Agreement or consummation of this transaction by reason of the acts of such party, and Purchaser and Seller will indemnify, defend and hold the other party harmless from any brokerage or finder’s fee or commission claimed by any person asserting his entitlement thereto at the alleged instigation of the indemnifying party for or on account of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The provisions of this Article XI will survive any Closing or termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XII
CONFIDENTIALITY
Section 12.1    Confidentiality. Seller and Purchaser expressly acknowledge and agree that, unless and until the Closing occurs, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the terms, conditions, and negotiations concerning the same will be held in the strictest confidence by each of them and will not be disclosed by either of them except to their respective legal counsel, accountants, lenders (including prospective lenders), consultants, officers, investors, clients, partners, directors, and shareholders, and except and only to the extent that such disclosure may be necessary for their respective performances hereunder or for any financing of the Property or for auditing purposes or as otherwise required by applicable law. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, until the Closing occurs, all information obtained by Purchaser in connection with the Property will be subject to the provisions of Section 5.2(b). Nothing contained in this Article XII will preclude or limit either party to this Agreement from disclosing or accessing any information otherwise deemed confidential under this Article XII in connection with that party’s enforcement of its rights following a disagreement hereunder, or in response to lawful process or subpoena or other valid or enforceable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or any filings with governmental authorities required by reason of the transactions provided for herein; provided, however, in the event such disclosure is required pursuant to a subpoena or court order, the applicable party shall promptly notify the other party thereof so that the other party may seek a protective order, waive compliance with this Article XII, and/or take any other action mutually agreed upon by the parties.
ARTICLE XIII
REMEDIES
Section 13.1    Default by Seller. If Closing of the purchase and sale transaction provided for herein does not occur as herein provided by reason of any default of Seller, Purchaser may, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, elect by written notice to Seller no later than (5) days following the scheduled Closing Date, either (a) to terminate this Agreement, and, if Seller has affirmatively and intentionally committed a material default hereunder, recover its third party out-of-pocket expenses from Seller up to, but not to exceed, $100,000, in which event Purchaser will

34


receive from the Title Company the Earnest Money Deposit, whereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations, (b) to seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder, or (c) only in the event of an Intentional Conveyance (as defined below), terminate this Agreement and recover from Seller damages equal to the amount by which the gross proceeds from the Intentional Conveyance exceed the Purchase Price. An “Intentional Conveyance” shall mean Seller has, except as expressly permitted hereunder, intentionally conveyed or encumbered the Property to a third party, such conveyance or encumbrance is not remedied by Closing, and, as a result thereof, specific performance is unavailable. Purchaser hereby waives all other remedies, including without limitation, any claim against Seller for damages of any type or kind including, without limitation, consequential or punitive damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.1 will limit Purchaser’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Seller of any of the Closing Surviving Obligations after Closing or the Termination Surviving Obligations after termination, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
Section 13.2    DEFAULT BY PURCHASER. IN THE EVENT THE CLOSING AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN DO NOT OCCUR AS PROVIDED HEREIN (TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE) BY REASON OF ANY DEFAULT OF PURCHASER, PURCHASER AND SELLER AGREE IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER. PURCHASER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT (i) AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT, TOGETHER WITH ALL INTEREST ACCRUED THEREON, IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT PURCHASER DEFAULTS AND FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY, WHICH EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT SHALL BE PAID TO SELLER, AND (ii) SUCH AMOUNT WILL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR PURCHASER’S DEFAULT AND FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY, AND WILL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY (WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY) FOR ANY DEFAULT OF PURCHASER RESULTING IN THE FAILURE OF CONSUMMATION OF THE CLOSING, AND UPON SUCH PAYMENT TO SELLER, THIS AGREEMENT WILL TERMINATE AND SELLER AND PURCHASER WILL HAVE NO FURTHER RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE TERMINATION SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 13.2 HEREIN WILL LIMIT SELLER’S REMEDIES AT LAW, IN EQUITY OR AS HEREIN PROVIDED IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ANY OF THE CLOSING SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS OR THE TERMINATION SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS.
THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676, AND 1677.

Section 13.3    Consequential and Punitive Damages. Each of Seller and Purchaser waive any right to sue the other for any consequential or punitive damages for matters arising under this Agreement (it being understood that each of Seller and Purchaser have waived the right to obtain incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages in connection with any default of Purchaser or Seller, respectively, or otherwise, which, in the case of Purchaser, include, without limitation, loss of profits or inability to secure lenders, investors or buyers). This Section 13.3 shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XV
ASSIGNMENT AND BINDING EFFECT
Section 15.1    Assignment; Binding Effect. Purchaser will not have the right to assign this Agreement without Seller’s prior written consent, to be given or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Purchaser, Cole Operating Partnership IV, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Cole REIT III Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Cole Corporate Income Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Cole Corporate Income Operating Partnership II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, or Cole Real Estate Income Strategy (Daily NAV) Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership without the consent of Seller. No assignment by Purchaser hereunder shall relieve Purchaser from its obligations hereunder; provided, however, with respect to any assignment, if Closing occurs the assigning party (but not the assignee) shall be relieved of all its obligations arising under this Agreement before, on and after Closing. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other party will be conferred any rights by virtue of this Agreement or be entitled to enforce any of the provisions hereof. Whenever a reference is made in this Agreement to Seller or Purchaser, such reference will include the successors and permitted assigns of such party under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVI
PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITED SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
Section 16.1    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in this Agreement and Seller’s liability under any provision of this Agreement and under any Closing Document, will survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months. Purchaser will not have any right to bring any action against Seller as a result of (i) any untruth, inaccuracy or breach of such representations and warranties under this Agreement, or (ii) the failure of Seller to perform its obligations under any other provision of this Agreement, or under any other document or agreement executed in connection with this Agreement, including all documents and agreements executed at Closing ("Closing Documents"), unless and until the aggregate amount of all liability and losses arising out of all such untruths, inaccuracies, breaches and failures exceeds $25,000, in which case all liability or losses from the first dollar thereof shall be included. In addition, in no event will Seller’s liability for all untruths, inaccuracies, breaches, and/or failures under Section 8.1 any other provision of this Agreement, or under any Closing Documents (including Seller’s liability for attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with such untruths, inaccuracies, breaches and/or failures) exceed, in the aggregate, $750,000.
(b)    After Closing, Seller shall have no liability with respect to any of Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants herein for which and to the extent, prior to the Closing, Purchaser has actual knowledge of any breach thereof.
(c)    The Closing Surviving Obligations will survive Closing without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement. All other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made or undertaken by Seller under this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, will not survive the Closing Date but will be merged into the Closing documents delivered at the Closing. The Termination Surviving Obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement.
ARTICLE XVII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 17.1    Waivers. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or provisions contained herein will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach thereof, or of any other covenant or provision contained herein. No extension of time for performance of any obligation or act will be deemed an extension of the time for performance of any other obligation or act.
Section 17.2    Recovery of Certain Fees. In the event a party hereto files any action or suit against another party hereto by reason of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements or provisions contained in this Agreement, then in that event the prevailing party will be entitled to have and recover of and from the other party all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs resulting

38


therefrom, subject, however, in the case of Seller, to the limitations set forth in Section 16.1 above. The term “attorneys’ fees” or “attorneys’ fees and costs” shall mean all court costs and the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing, photostatting, duplicating and other expenses, air freight charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of an attorney, and the costs and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of any judgment obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of this Section 17.2 shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or be deemed to have merged, into any judgment.
Section 17.3    Time of Essence. Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that time is strictly of the essence with respect to each and every term, condition, obligation and provision hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser has no, and waives any, right to extend the Closing Date.
Section 17.4    Construction/Business Days. Headings at the beginning of each article and section are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the singular will include the plural and the masculine will include the feminine and vice versa. This Agreement will not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. All exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and incorporated by this reference, and any capitalized term used in any exhibit or schedule which is not defined in such exhibit or schedule will have the meaning attributable to such term in the body of this Agreement. In the event the date on or by which Purchaser or Seller is required to take any action under the terms of this Agreement is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.
Section 17.5    Counterparts. To facilitate execution of this Agreement, this Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, when assembled to include an original, faxed or electronic mail (in .PDF or similar file) signature for each party contemplated to sign this Agreement, will constitute a complete and fully executed agreement. All such fully executed original, faxed or electronic mail (in .PDF or similar file) counterparts will collectively constitute a single agreement, and such signatures will be binding upon the party sending the signature by such electronic means when sent.
Section 17.6    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all of the other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any adverse manner to either party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to reflect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
Section 17.7    Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or terminated, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by written

39


instrument, signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in writing, or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.
Section 17.8    Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONSTRUED, PERFORMED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS IN SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT AND AGREE TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.
Section 17.9    No Recording. The parties hereto agree that neither this Agreement nor any affidavit concerning it will be recorded.
Section 17.10    Further Actions. The parties agree to execute such instructions to the Title Company and such other instruments and to do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 17.11    No Other Inducements. The making, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto have been induced by no representations, statements, warranties or agreements other than those expressly set forth herein.
Section 17.12    Exhibits. Exhibits A through G, inclusive, are incorporated herein by reference.
Section 17.13    No Partnership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to make the parties hereto partners or joint venturers, it being the intention of the parties to merely create the relationship of Seller and Purchaser with respect to the Property to be conveyed as contemplated hereby.
Section 17.14    Limitations on Benefits. It is the explicit intention of Purchaser and Seller that no person or entity other than Purchaser and Seller and their permitted successors and assigns is or shall be entitled to bring any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement against any of the parties hereto, and the covenants, undertakings and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable only by, Purchaser and Seller or their respective successors and assigns as permitted hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall under any circumstances whatsoever be deemed or construed, or be interpreted, as making any third party (including, without limitation, Broker or any Tenant) a beneficiary of any term or provision of this Agreement or any instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto, and Purchaser and Seller expressly reject any such intent, construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
Section 17.15    Exculpation. In no event whatsoever shall recourse be had or liability asserted against any of Seller’s or Purchaser’s partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, officers or other owners of Seller or Purchaser or their respective constituent members, partners, shareholders, employees, agents directors, officers or other owners. Seller’s and Purchaser’s direct and indirect shareholders, partners, members, beneficiaries and owners and their respective trustees, officers, directors, employees, agents and security holders, assume no personal

40


liability for any obligations entered into on behalf of Seller or Purchaser, respectively, under this Agreement and the Closing documents.
Section 17.16    Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE THAT ANY SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.
Section 17.17    SEC S-X 3-14 Audit. In order to enable Purchaser to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), Seller agrees, at Purchaser’s cost and expense, to provide Purchaser and its representatives information sufficient for Purchaser to comply with SEC Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, including Seller’s most current financial statements for the current fiscal year and the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (collectively, the “SEC Filing Information”); provided Seller will provide such information without any representation or warranty. Seller understands that certain of the SEC Filing Information may be included in filings required to be made by Purchaser with the SEC. Seller will cooperate in providing data and by being available to answer questions with respect to its records as they arise, both before and after the expiration of the Property Approval Period. This Section 17.17 shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year.
