4.1    Obtaining and Delivery of Survey and Preliminary Title Report.

(a)    Survey. Seller shall, as soon as reasonably possible after the Effective Date, provide to Buyer a copy of the latest survey in its possession, if any, that includes the Real Property and Improvements. Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, obtain an updated survey with respect to the Real Property and Improvements (the “Survey”). If Buyer obtains a Survey, it shall deliver a copy of the same, without representation or warranty, to the Title Company and Seller.

(b)    Preliminary Title Report.

4.2    Review and Approval of Survey and PTR.

(a)    Notice of Objection; Disapproved Exceptions; Permitted Exceptions. On or before the Title Objection Deadline, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing (the “Notice of Objection”) of those items, if any, disclosed in the PTR and/or Survey that are not acceptable to Buyer. Any item to which Buyer objects in the Notice of Objection shall be a “Disapproved Exception.” Any matters affecting or exceptions to title to, or showing on the Survey of, the Real Property and Improvements, and not disapproved in writing within the period specified above, shall be deemed to be approved by Buyer and each shall constitute a “Permitted Exception” hereunder. On or prior to Seller’s Title Response Deadline, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing that either (i) it shall take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to eliminate (or otherwise resolve to Buyer’s satisfaction) one or more of the Disapproved Exceptions; or (ii) it shall not take any actions with respect to any or all of the Disapproved Exceptions (“Seller’s Response to Title Objections”). If Seller elects to proceed in accordance with subsection (i) above with respect to a Disapproved Exception, then at Closing (as defined in Section 10 below), title to the Real Property shall either be as described in the PTR and/or depicted in the Survey but free of the subject Disapproved Exception(s), or Buyer shall, as its sole right and remedy, either (1) waive the unsatisfied objections and close, or (2) terminate this Agreement. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected as provided below) to proceed in accordance with subsection (ii) above with respect to any Disapproved Exception, then Buyer shall have until the Due Diligence Expiration Date to either elect to proceed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding its objection, or terminate this Agreement, and if Buyer does not elect to terminate then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed and any Disapproved Exception for which Seller elected (or is deemed to have elected) to proceed under subsection (ii) above shall constitute a Permitted Exception. If Seller fails to respond to the Notice of Objection within the period provided above following Seller’s receipt of the Notice of Objection with respect to any or all of the Disapproved Exceptions, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected to proceed in accordance with subsection (ii) above with respect to such Disapproved Exceptions.

7

Seller shall have no obligation to remove or cure any title matters objected to by Buyer, except that Seller agrees to remove from the condition of title of the Real Property at Close of Escrow (without the necessity of Buyer delivering any notice disapproving such matters), at no cost to Buyer, all deeds of trust and/or mortgages affecting the Real Property, all mechanics’ and/or materialmen liens, if any, arising out of work contracted for, by or on behalf of Seller, all judgment liens and all other monetary liens, other than any monetary liens relating to Buyer’s inspections of the Property or otherwise caused by Buyer (and other than non-delinquent real property taxes and assessments) encumbering the Property, or applicable portion thereof (the “Unpermitted Exceptions”). Upon any election by Buyer made in accordance with this Section 4.2(a) to terminate this Agreement, then the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement (except those provisions hereof which are expressly stated to survive termination). Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all of the following shall also constitute “Permitted Exceptions” (regardless of whether Buyer disapproves of them): (A) real estate taxes and assessments, bond or special district assessments, water and/or meter charges, sewer taxes, charges or rents, in each case not yet due and payable; (B) liens, encumbrances or other matters made, created or caused by or on behalf of Buyer, including, without limitation, liens arising as a result of any act or omission of Buyer or its agents, contractors or representatives; (C) zoning and other land use restrictions and ordinances; (D) printed exceptions and exclusions set forth in the Title Company’s standard form policy of title insurance; (E) any other matters which are approved by Buyer prior to the Closing Date; and (F) the Leaseback Lease.

(b)    PTR Updates. If any update to the PTR discloses exceptions or matters other than the Permitted Exceptions, then, within five (5) days after its receipt of such update (but no later than the Closing Date), Buyer may notify Seller of any such exceptions or matters to which it objects. Any such exceptions or matters not timely objected to by Buyer, except for Unpermitted Exceptions, shall become “Permitted Exceptions.” If Buyer objects to any such exceptions or matters, Seller shall have until Closing to cause the removal of such exceptions or matters (which removal may be by way of waiver or endorsement by the Title Company). If Seller fails to cause the removal of any such exceptions or matters as aforesaid, Buyer shall have the option, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to either (a) waive the unsatisfied objections and close, or (b) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement (except those provisions hereof which are expressly stated to survive termination). If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall consummate the Closing and accept title to the Real Property subject to all such exceptions and matters (in which event, all such exceptions and matters shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions except for any Unpermitted Exceptions).

(c)    PTR and Survey Notices. Notices under this Section 4 may be delivered by email provided that the subject line thereof is entitled “Notice of Objection” or “Seller’s Response to Title Objections”, as the case may be.

5.    Due Diligence.

Any environmental analysis of the Property involving any sampling of materials collected from or at the Property shall be subject to prior approval by Seller, which approval may be granted or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion.

(c)    Secure Work Areas. In connection with its Due Diligence Activities, Buyer shall (and shall cause Buyer’s Representatives to) use commercially reasonable efforts to properly secure all work areas to prevent harm to Seller, Seller’s tenants, employees, agents and invitees.

(d)    Minimum Disturbance. Buyer shall (and shall cause Buyer’s Representatives to) perform all Due Diligence Activities in a commercially reasonable manner and in cooperation with Seller, Seller’s customers, employees, agents and invitees in a manner reasonably likely to avoid accident, damage or harm to persons or Property and unreasonable delay to or interference with the operations or businesses of such parties. Buyer shall (and shall cause Buyer’s Representatives to) conduct the Due Diligence Activities in a manner and at times that is intended to minimize any impairment of access or traffic by the aforementioned parties, or other inconvenience or disturbance to the operations or businesses of such parties, in each case to the extent reasonably possible.

(g)    No Liens. Buyer will not permit any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other similar liens or claims to stand against the Property for labor or material furnished in connection with any Due Diligence Activities performed by Buyer under this Agreement. Upon reasonable and timely written notice of any such lien or claim delivered to Buyer by Seller, Buyer may bond and contest the validity and the amount of such lien, but Buyer (a) will promptly pay any judgment rendered; (b) will promptly pay all proper costs and charges arising from the Due Diligence Activities and any disputes relating thereto; and (c) will have the lien or claim released at its sole expense.

References to the “knowledge” of Seller or “Seller’s knowledge” shall mean and be strictly limited to the actual knowledge of Seller’s Knowledge Party in his capacity as an employee of Seller, without any duty of investigation or inquiry, and shall not be construed, by imputation or otherwise, to refer to the knowledge of any affiliate of Seller, to any other property manager, or to any other officer, agent, manager, member, representative or employee of Seller or any affiliate thereof. There shall be no personal liability on the part of the Seller’s Knowledge Party arising out of any representations or warranties made herein. Seller shall notify Buyer in writing if, prior to Closing, Seller obtains actual knowledge of any information which would make any of Seller’s representations or warranties untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the Effective Date or the Closing. If Seller gives such written notice, or if Buyer has knowledge or otherwise discovers information which renders (or if known to Seller, would render) any of Seller’s representations or warranties untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the Effective Date or the Closing, the same shall not constitute a breach or default by Seller, but in such event, Buyer shall elect, by giving written notice to Seller within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice or discovery of such information, either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and a nullity and of no further force and effect, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither party hereto shall thereafter have any rights, duties, liabilities, or obligations whatsoever under this Agreement, other than for those provisions that expressly survive termination, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Buyer, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated herein, in an amount not to exceed the Expense Cap, or (ii) to proceed with the Closing subject to all other terms and conditions of this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give notice of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) above, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing in accordance with clause (ii) above. If the Closing Date is within the aforesaid five (5) business day period, then the Closing Date shall be extended to the next business day following the end of such five (5) business day period. If Buyer elects (or is deemed to have elected) to proceed with the Closing in accordance with clause (ii) above, such representation or warranty shall automatically be deemed conformed to the information contained in such notice or discovered by Buyer prior to the Closing, as the case may be. If Buyer acquires the Property with knowledge of an untrue or incorrect representation or warranty, then upon the Closing, Buyer shall be deemed to have fully and unconditionally waived and released any and all claims, actions and causes of action whatsoever with respect to such untrue or incorrect representation or warranty. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

8.2    Survival. The representations and warranties made in Section 8.1 shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period. No claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller shall be actionable or payable (a) if the breach in question results from or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter which was known to Buyer prior to Closing, (b) unless the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate to an amount in excess of the Minimum Claim, in which event the full amount of such claims shall be actionable, and (c) unless written notice containing a description of the specific nature of such breach shall have been given by Buyer to Seller prior to the expiration the Survival Period and an action shall have been commenced by Buyer against Seller not later than thirty (30) days after the

(a)    Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Seller that Buyer is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of formation; Buyer has full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; no consent is necessary from any party in order for Buyer to enter into and perform this Agreement; the person signing this Agreement and any of the other documents on behalf of Buyer has full power and authority to bind Buyer; and when executed by Buyer, this Agreement shall be binding and enforceable against Buyer in accordance with its terms, and upon Buyer’s execution of any other documents contemplated herein, they shall be binding and enforceable against Buyer in accordance with their terms.

(b)    Buyer is in compliance with the requirements of the Orders and the Patriot Act. Buyer:

(i)    is not listed on the Lists;

(ii)    has not been determined by competent authority to be subject to the prohibitions contained in the Orders; and

9.5    Settlement Statement. At least two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date, Escrow Agent shall prepare and deliver to Buyer and Seller a closing settlement statement showing the amounts required to be deposited by Buyer in connection herewith, and the then contemplated disbursements for such funds that shall occur on the Closing Date (the “Settlement Statement”).    Prior to the Closing and as a condition precedent thereto, Seller and Buyer shall have approved and executed the Settlement Statement.

9.6    Recording of Documents and Delivery of Funds. Upon the Closing, the Escrow Agent shall cause the Deed to be filed for record in the county in which the Real Property is located (unless the Closing is based on a gap indemnity given by Seller to the Title Company, in which event the Deed shall be filed for record as soon as practicable following the Closing), and disburse to Seller the net amounts due to Seller pursuant to the Settlement Statement.

9.7    Reporting Requirements. The Escrow Agent is hereby designated the “real estate reporting person” for purposes of Section 6045 of Title 26 of the United States Code and Treasury Regulation 1.6045-4 and any instructions or settlement statement prepared by the Escrow Agent shall so provide.

For circumstances other than a default by Seller (which is governed by Section 14.1 below), if a Buyer’s Condition Precedent has not been satisfied or waived prior to the Closing Date, for any reason other than Buyer’s default, Buyer may, as its sole right and remedy, terminate this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect and the Escrow Agent shall, and is hereby instructed to, return the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer. For circumstances other than a default by Buyer (which is governed by Section 14.2 below), if a Seller’s Condition Precedent has not been satisfied or waived prior to the Closing Date, for any reason other than Seller’s default, Seller may terminate this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect and the Escrow Agent shall, and is hereby instructed to, release the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer.

11.    Closing Prorations and Credits.

11.1    Real Estate Taxes and Assessments. The Escrow Agent shall prorate any and all current real estate taxes and assessments for the Property as of the date of the filing of the Deed for record using as the basis for such proration the rate and valuation shown for the Property on the last available tax records or other separate tax or assessment invoices, which may include tax estimates from the applicable governmental authority (hereinafter referred to as the “Estimated Taxes”); provided, however, that such Estimated Taxes shall be provisional only and shall be properly adjusted by the parties hereto following the Closing in accordance with the amount of taxes shown on the tax bills or tax duplicates actually issued or prepared for the period in question once they are available after Closing. The proration of real estate taxes contemplated herein shall take into account Seller’s continuing obligation to pay real estate taxes on that portion of the Property that is the subject of the Leaseback Lease. In addition, if after the Closing there is an adjustment or reassessment by any governmental authority with respect to, or affecting, any ad valorem taxes for the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs or any prior year (whether in the nature of a “roll-back” tax or otherwise), any additional tax payment for the Property required to be paid with respect to the year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller, with Seller being responsible for any additional tax payment allocable to the period prior to Closing and any such additional tax payment for the Property with respect to any year prior to the year of the Closing and Buyer being responsible for any additional tax payment for the period attributable to the date of Closing and thereafter.

11.2    Post-Closing Reconciliation. Seller and Buyer hereby agree that if any of the prorations and credits described in this Section 11, or any other expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the Property, cannot be calculated accurately on the Closing Date, then the same shall be calculated as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, but in no event later than the Post-Closing Reconciliation Deadline, and either party owing the other party a sum of money based on such subsequent proration(s) or credits shall pay said sum to the other party within ten (10) days thereafter.

11.3    Survival. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the Closing, subject to the limitations described above.

12.    Brokerage. Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other that they have dealt with no other real estate brokers with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement other than the Broker. Seller shall be responsible for paying any brokerage commission due to Broker, pursuant to a separate agreement at the Closing. No brokerage commission paid to a Broker shall be credited against, subtracted from or otherwise affect the Purchase Price paid by Buyer to Seller. Seller and Buyer each agree to indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from and against any claim or liability, as well as court costs and legal fees, arising out of claims contrary to the foregoing representations and warranties by a party claiming to have dealt with the indemnifying party or any brokerage commission owed by the indemnifying party to Broker. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the mutual indemnities contained in this Section 12 shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement and shall not be subject to the limitations on remedies of Seller or Buyer set forth in Section 14.2.

13.    Notices. All notices provided for herein may be sent by Federal Express or other overnight courier service, personally delivered or mailed registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by e-mail. All notices shall be deemed given upon receipt or refusal of delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the sender of any such notice which is sent by e-mail receives a failure to deliver notice or any similar automatic response indicating that such notice may not have been received by the intended recipient, such notice shall not constitute a valid notice hereunder unless and until such notice is sent by another means permitted hereunder and such subsequent notice shall be deemed effective in accordance with the terms of this provision. The addresses to be used in connection with notices are those set forth in the Fundamental Information, or such other address as a party shall from time to time direct by notice

21

given in accordance with this Section 13. Any notice required to be delivered or received by Buyer or Seller hereunder, may be delivered or received by its counsel in accordance with this Section 13, and any such notice so delivered or received by counsel for Buyer or Seller shall be sufficient to constitute, and may be relied on as, notice from or to Buyer or Seller, as applicable.    

14.    Default.

14.1    Buyer’s Remedies For Seller’s Default. If, as of the Closing Date, (a) each of the Seller’s Conditions Precedent as set forth in this Agreement have been satisfied or waived by Seller, and (b) Seller fails or refuses to timely convey the Property to Buyer in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except on account of a breach or default hereunder by Buyer (collectively a “Seller Default”), Buyer may elect one of the following remedies (and Buyer hereby waives any and all other rights and remedies against Seller): (i) terminate Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement by written notice to Seller and receive a full refund of the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) and receive reimbursement for its out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the transaction, in an amount not to exceed the Expense Cap; or (ii) bring an action for specific performance of this Agreement, which action shall be brought, if at all, no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date. Buyer hereby waives its right to bring any action for damages (including without limitation, actual, consequential, special and punitive damages) if the Closing does not occur due to a Seller Default. The preceding to the contrary notwithstanding, if (u) each of the Seller’s Conditions Precedent as set forth in this Agreement have been satisfied or waived by Seller, (v) Seller fails or refuses to timely convey the Property to Buyer in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (w) Buyer is not in default under this Agreement, (x) Buyer timely brings an action against Seller for specific performance, (y) specific performance is not an available remedy to Buyer because Seller has conveyed the Property to a third-party, and (z) Buyer has satisfied any conditions under applicable law that are prerequisites to the remedy of specific performance, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, receive a full refund of the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration), receive reimbursement of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the transaction without regard to any Expense Cap and may bring an action for its actual damages. Buyer’s election to proceed with the Closing with actual knowledge of a breach or default by Seller hereunder as of or prior to the Closing (including without limitation a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller herein) shall conclusively constitute Buyer’s waiver of any and all claims against Seller on account thereof.

14.2     Seller’s Remedies For Buyer’s Default. If, as of the Closing Date, (a) each of the Buyer’s Conditions Precedent as set forth in this Agreement have been satisfied or waived, and (b) Buyer fails or refuses to timely consummate the Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except on account of a breach or default hereunder by Seller, and such failure or refusal continues for five (5) business days following Buyer’s receipt of written notice of such failure or refusal from Seller, then Seller may elect to terminate Seller’s obligations under this Agreement by written notice to Buyer and keep the Deposit as liquidated damages and as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy. The foregoing provision, however, shall not limit Seller’s remedies with respect to certain obligations of the Buyer which are stated to survive the termination of this Agreement and/or as provided in the last sentence of this Section 14.2. The parties hereby agree that the amount of the Deposit shall be and constitutes liquidated damages in the event of a breach or default by Buyer hereunder occurring following the date Buyer delivers its Notice to Proceed to Seller (if applicable) and prior to the Closing hereunder and which is not cured or remedied by Buyer within the five (5) business day cure period set forth above. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that it is difficult or impossible to determine the actual damages Seller would suffer from Buyer’s breach hereof and that the agreed upon liquidated damages are not punitive or penalties and are just, fair and reasonable. THEREFORE, BY PLACING THEIR INITIALS

22

BELOW, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE DEPOSIT HAS BEEN AGREED UPON, AFTER NEGOTIATION, AS THE PARTIES’ REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, AGAINST BUYER IN THE EVENT THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY IS NOT CONSUMMATED BY REASON OF A BREACH OR DEFAULT BY BUYER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER HEREBY WAIVES THE REMEDY OF SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO ANY DEFAULT OR BREACH BY BUYER, AND AGREES THAT THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF ANY UNCURED BREACH OR DEFAULT BY BUYER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOLLOWING THE DUE DILIGENCE EXPIRATION DATE. HOWEVER, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL LIMIT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INDEMNIFICATION AND/OR RESTORATION OBLIGATIONS OF BUYER UNDER SECTIONS 5.1(f), 5.2, 12 and 15.15 AND OBLIGATIONS OF BUYER UNDER SECTION 15.17 OF THIS AGREEMENT OR LIMIT THE RECOVERY OF ANY ATTORNEYS’ FEES, WHICH MAY BE RECOVERED BY SELLER PURSUANT TO SECTION 15.3 BELOW IN EXCESS OF THE DEPOSIT AMOUNT.

14.2    Survival. The provisions of this Section 14 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

15.    Miscellaneous.

15.1    Business Days. References herein to a “business day” means any day other than (a) a Saturday or Sunday or (b) a day on which banking institutions in the state in which the Real Property is located are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed. If the last day for performance of any obligation or exercise of any right falls on a day other than a business day, then the last day for such performance or exercise of such right shall be extended to and expire on the next succeeding business day. With respect to any time period stated herein, such period shall commence on the first day following notice, where notice is applicable, and shall end on the last day of the stated period. For example, if Buyer is afforded 10 days to respond to a notice from Seller, then such 10-day period would commence on the first day following receipt of notice (as set forth in Section 13 above) and would end 10 days thereafter, inclusive of the 10th day.

15.2    Time. Time is of the essence in the performance of each party’s obligations hereunder.

15.3    Attorneys’ Fees. If any party shall bring an action or proceeding against the other party by reason of the breach or alleged violation of any term or obligation hereof, or for the enforcement or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to its reasonable costs and expenses of suit, including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees. The terms and conditions of this provision shall survive Closing and shall not be subject to any limitations under Section 14.2 herein.

15.4    No Waiver. Subject to the deemed approvals under this Agreement, no waiver by any party of the performance or satisfaction of any covenant or condition shall be valid unless in writing, nor shall it be considered to be a waiver by such party of any other covenant or condition hereunder.

15.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties regarding the Property and supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding the same subject. This Agreement may only be modified by subsequent written agreement signed by the party to be charged.

23

15.6    Further Assurances. Before and after Closing, Buyer or Seller shall execute and deliver to the other party all such documents that such other party may reasonably require to effect, confirm or otherwise perfect the transfer of property and other covenants and agreements of the parties contemplated by this Agreement.

15.7    Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and to their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that none of the rights or obligations of Buyer hereunder shall be transferred or assigned by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be granted or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. The preceding to the contrary notwithstanding, Buyer shall have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement and obligations hereunder accruing from and after the effective date of such assignment to a limited liability company comprised of (i) a limited liability company affiliated with Buyer and/or the principals of Buyer and (ii) a member providing capital. No permitted assignment or transfer by Buyer shall relieve Buyer from its obligations hereunder, it being understood that upon any assignment or transfer Buyer shall remain liable to Seller for the performance of the obligations of “Buyer” hereunder.

15.8    Possession. Seller shall deliver possession of the Property to Buyer on the Closing Date, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Prior to the Closing hereunder, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove from the buildings located at 1140-1150 Ringwood Court (the “Ringwood Buildings”), all personal property, including free-standing equipment, located in the Ringwood Buildings. At Closing, Buyer and Seller shall execute a License Agreement the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (the “License Agreement”), pursuant which Seller shall have the right, for a period of 30 days following the Closing, to have access to the Ringwood Buildings for the purposes of removing any personal property, including free-standing equipment, owned by Seller and located in the Ringwood Buildings.

15.9    Operation of Property.

(b)    Omitted.

(c)    Omitted.

(d)    All service contracts with the vendors identified on Schedule 15.9(d) attached hereto (the “Service Contracts”) shall be terminated by Seller on or before the Close of Escrow hereunder (except that Seller shall not be obligated to terminate on or before the Close of Escrow any Service Contracts that relate solely to Seller’s continued use and occupancy of the Premises, or applicable part thereof, described in the Leaseback Lease and if any Service Contracts pertain to such Premises, or applicable part thereof, and other portions of the Property, then, on or before the Close of Escrow, Seller shall cause such Service Contracts to be modified to apply only to the Premises described in the Leaseback Lease).

(e)    From and after the date of this Agreement, Seller shall continue to maintain its insurance covering the Real Property in existence.

24

(f)    From and after the Due Diligence Expiration Date, Seller shall not encumber the Property, or any part thereof, without the prior consent of Buyer (which consent may be given or withheld in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion).

(g)    Not later than five (5) business days following the Effective Date, Seller shall complete, sign and return to Buyer a Disclosure Certificate in the form attached as Exhibit G to the Leaseback Lease.

15.10    Change in Property.

(a)    In the event all of the Property, or a portion of the Property, is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date, and the cost of to restore or repair such damage or destruction exceeds the Materiality Threshold, then Buyer may (i) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such election to Seller, in which case Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer and, except for the obligations of Buyer and Seller which expressly survive termination of the Agreement, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations to one another under this Agreement, or (ii) proceed with the Closing, in which case this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Buyer shall acquire the Property upon the terms and conditions set forth herein without a reduction in the Purchase Price. If Buyer elects to proceed with the Closing under clause (ii), (x) Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction, and all such proceeds allocable to the Premises described in the Leaseback Lease shall be applied for restoration in accordance with the terms of the Leaseback Lease and (y) Buyer shall receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to Seller’s deductible under its property insurance policy(ies) covering such damage or destruction and/or amount of any uninsured or underinsured damage or loss.

(b)    If, prior to the Closing Date, any portion of the Real Property or Improvements is taken, or if the access thereto is restricted, by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority under power of eminent domain or otherwise (each, a “Taking”), or if the Real Property or Improvements become subject to a pending, threatened or contemplated Taking which has not been consummated, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of such fact. In the event of any Taking or pending, threatened or contemplated Taking which, in the case of Buyer, in Buyer’s good faith judgment would materially and adversely affect the value, use or operation of the Real Property or Improvements or would give Seller a right to terminate the Leaseback Lease (following the execution of the Leaseback Lease), then Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller given not later than ten (10) business days after receipt of such notice. In the event of any Taking or pending, threatened or contemplated Taking which, in the case of Seller, in Seller’s good faith judgment would materially and adversely affect Seller’s continued use and operation of the Premises described in and as contemplated by the Leaseback Lease, then Seller shall have the option to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Buyer given not later than ten (10) business days after Seller’s delivery of such notice to Buyer. If this Agreement is so terminated pursuant to this Section 15.10(b), Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) to Buyer and, except for the obligations of Buyer and Seller which expressly survive termination of the Agreement, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations to one another under this Agreement. If neither party timely exercises its option to terminate this Agreement, then the parties shall proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and without any reduction in the Purchase Price, and upon the Closing Seller shall assign and turn over, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep, all awards for any such Taking, subject to the terms of the Leaseback Lease. Without Buyer’s prior approval, Seller shall take no action with respect to the settlement of any such Taking proceeding unless or until Buyer has notified Seller as to whether or not Buyer intends to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.10(b). The provisions of this Section 15.10(b) are intended to supersede any governmental regulations to the contrary, which are hereby waived to the fullest extent allowable by law.

15.11    Counterparts and Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement, and this Agreement shall only be effective if a counterpart is signed by both Seller and Buyer. This Agreement may be executed in so-called “pdf” format, and each party has the right to rely upon a pdf counterpart of this Agreement signed by the other party to the same extent as if such party had received an original counterpart.

15.12    Severability. In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof.

15.13    Recording. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum hereof shall be recorded or filed in the Office of the County Recorder of the county in which the Real Property is located, or in any other public records of any jurisdiction, and any attempt to do so may be treated by the other party as a material breach of this Agreement.

15.14    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Seller and Buyer agree that it is their specific intent that no broker or any other third party shall be a party to or a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement or the escrow; and further that the consent of a broker or other third party shall not be necessary to any agreement, amendment, or document with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. This shall not, however, affect the rights of any party pursuant to a separate agreement.

15.15    1031 Exchange. Seller and/or Buyer may desire to effect a tax-deferred like kind exchange with respect to its sale or purchase, respectively, of the Property (in either case, the “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 any “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

26

result in a release of the Exchangor with respect to such representations, warranties and/or covenants. At the Exchangor’s election, the 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. The Non-Exchangor shall have no liability to the Exchangor in the event that the Exchange is not successfully consummated or in the event that the Closing does not occur prior to the deadline for consummation of the Exchange; and, the Closing is not conditioned upon the Exchangor’s ability to consummate the Exchange.

15.16    Omitted.

15.17    Confidentiality. The parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are confidential and shall not be disclosed to any third parties, except for the parties’ respective principals, employees, agents, affiliates, contractors and consultants (including without limitation attorneys, accountants, and brokers, including loan brokers), lenders and prospective lenders, prospective investors and/or joint venture partners having a legitimate need for the information requested (collectively, “Disclosure Parties”), and except for disclosures required by law or normally provided by Seller in connection with Seller’s regular reporting. In addition, Buyer agrees (a) to keep all studies, reports, test results and other information furnished to or obtained by Buyer in connection with this Agreement confidential and not to disclose or reveal any such matters to any person other than Buyer’s representatives and other Disclosure Parties who are actively and directly participating in the evaluation of the Property, obtaining of financing for the acquisition of the Property or who otherwise need to know the information for purposes of evaluating the Property; and (b) not to use the information for any purpose other than in connection with Buyer evaluation of the Property. The provisions of this Section 15.17 shall survive any termination of this Agreement (other than as a result of Closing hereunder) and shall not be subject to the limitations on remedies of Seller set forth in Section 14.2.

15.18    Construction. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall be in all cases construed simply according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any of the parties hereto.
