If Seller is unable or unwilling to remove, eliminate or cause to be deleted any of the matters to which Purchaser objected, or is deemed to be unable or unwilling, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement in its sole and absolute discretion and receive a return of the Deposit; provided, however, the failure of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall be deemed Purchaser’s election not to terminate this Agreement on account of any matters shown on the Title Commitment or New Survey that Seller has not agreed to eliminate or remove or cause the Title Company to delete and all such matters except for Required Removal Items (as hereinafter defined) will constitute the “Permitted Exceptions”.  If Purchaser does not make a timely objection to an exception to title other than a Required Removal Item or if Purchaser elects (or is deemed to have elected) to accept any exceptions to which Purchaser has previously objected, such exceptions shall be additional Permitted Exceptions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.1, subject to the provisions of Section 8.3, Seller shall be obligated to eliminate or remove, or cause the Title Company to delete (a) liens evidencing monetary encumbrances arising by or through Seller (other than liens for non-delinquent general real estate taxes) (“Monetary Liens”), (b) liens or encumbrances created by Seller or its agents and affiliates after the Effective Date in violation of Section 10.1, and (c) any Title Objection that Seller elects in its Objection Response to remove (collectively, the “Required Removal Items”).  Under no circumstances will Purchaser be required to object to or be deemed to have approved any Required Removal Item.
8.2Title Updates. If, subsequent to the Title Review Period Expiration, (i) any supplemental title report or update issued contains exceptions other than those in the Title Commitment, or (ii) any update to the New Survey (the “Updated Survey” and together with the Title Commitment and the New Survey, the “Title and Survey Documents”) discloses material facts or conditions other than those shown on the New Survey (collectively, the “New Exceptions”), Purchaser will be entitled to object to the New Exceptions by delivery of a notice of objections to Seller (a “Supplemental Objections Notice”) on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days following Purchaser’s receipt of such supplement or update.  If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller a Supplemental Objections Notice on or before such date, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any objection to the New Exceptions and, provided the New Exceptions are not Required Removal Items, the New Exceptions will be included as Permitted Exceptions.  Seller will have not less than ten (10) days from the receipt of any Supplemental Objections Notice (and, if necessary, Seller may extend the Closing Date as provided in Section 8.4), within which time Seller shall remove the objectionable New Exceptions.

10


8.3Encumbrances. The existence of mortgages, liens, or other encumbrances not permitted hereby shall not be objections to title provided that (i) properly executed instruments in recordable form necessary to satisfy the same are delivered to the Title Company at the Closing together with recording and/or filing fees (or an appropriate credit against the Purchase Price given for such fees), or (ii) the applicable secured party has delivered a payoff letter or other statement satisfactory to the Title Company so as to allow the Title Company to insure over the existence of the mortgage, lien or other encumbrance on Purchaser’s final title policy for the Land, and Purchaser and Seller agree that such mortgages, liens or other encumbrances may be paid out of the cash consideration to be paid by Purchaser.
8.4Seller’s Failure to Remove. Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date for up to thirty (30) days in order to remove any objectionable Exception or New Exception that Seller agreed in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII to remove, or, subject to Section 8.3, any Required Removal Item by delivering written notice of such extension to Purchaser prior to the original Closing Date. If Seller fails on or before Closing (as may be extended) to remove any objectionable Exception or New Exception that Seller agreed in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII to remove, or, subject to Section 8.3, any Required Removal Item, then Purchaser may elect either to close with no adjustment to the Purchase Price, except as provided in Section 8.3, or exercise its remedies pursuant to Section 12.2.
Article IX

RISK OF LOSS
9.1Casualty. If the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty (a “casualty”) after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing then promptly after Seller becomes aware of the damage or destruction Seller will notify Purchaser thereof (the “Damage Notice”). If (i) the cost of repair is less than Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00); or (ii) repairs will, in Purchaser’s reasonable estimation, take less than three (3) months to effectuate; or (iii) the occurrence of the casualty would not permit any Major Tenant or any Tenants representing more than five percent (5%) of the rentable square footage of the Real Property in the aggregate to terminate their Lease, the Closing will proceed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the full Purchase Price, notwithstanding the damage or destruction; provided, however, that Seller will pay or assign to Purchaser at Closing all insurance proceeds, if any, resulting from such casualty damage and pay to Purchaser any deductible due under Seller’s insurance policy(ies) (unless such deductible was previously paid by Seller). If (i) the cost of repair is equal to or greater than Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00), or (ii) repair will, in Purchaser’s reasonable estimation, take three (3) months or longer to effectuate; or (iii) the occurrence of the casualty would permit any Major Tenant or any Tenants representing more than five percent (5%) of the rentable square footage of the Real Property in the aggregate to terminate their Lease, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller within twenty (20) days after the date of the Damage Notice and determination of the repair amount (and Closing will be extended as needed to provide for such twenty (20) day period), in which event the Deposit will be refunded to Purchaser. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement within the twenty (20) day period, Closing will proceed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the full Purchase Price, notwithstanding the damage or destruction, and Seller will pay or assign to Purchaser at Closing all insurance proceeds, if any, resulting from the casualty and credit to Purchaser any applicable deductible amounts under the insurance policies pursuant to which the insurance proceeds are paid or assigned (unless such deductible was previously paid by Seller).
9.2Condemnation.  If, after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing, a condemnation or eminent domain proceeding (“Taking”) is commenced against the Property, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser that the proceeding has commenced and provide copies of all notifications or other materials received by Seller.

11


(a)If the Taking is a Material Taking (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser may, by written notice to Seller (“Taking Notice”) elect to terminate this Agreement (in which event the Deposit will be refunded to Purchaser), which Taking Notice shall be sent no later than twenty (20) days after receipt of Seller’s notice (and Closing will be extended as needed to provide for such twenty (20) day period). For purposes of this Agreement, a “Material Taking” shall be a Taking which: (i) causes a reduction in the size of the Property of more than five percent (5%) of the Property’s aggregate acreage based on the New Survey (or, in the absence thereof, the existing plat(s) of record for the Property); (ii) causes a reduction in the off-street parking available for the Property such that the Property’s off-street parking is considered non-conforming or legal, non-conforming under applicable zoning regulations; or (iii) would permit any Major Tenant or any Tenants representing more than five percent (5%)  of the rentable square footage of the Real Property in the aggregate to terminate their Lease.
(b)If the Taking is not a Material Taking or if it is a Material Taking and Purchaser does not give Seller a Taking Notice in accordance with Section 9.2(a), Purchaser will complete the transaction contemplated hereby without abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all rights, if any, to receive the award payable as a result of such proceeding.
Article X

OPERATION OF THE PROPERTY
10.1Operations. From the Effective Date through the Closing Date, Seller will (a) continue to operate and maintain the Property consistent with its standards of operation and maintenance prevailing immediately prior to the Effective Date; provided, that, Seller shall not be obligated to make any commitment with respect to capital expenditures, except (i) as set forth in Section 10.3 below, (ii) as Landlord may be obligated to make under the terms of any Lease after a demand by a tenant therefor, and (iii) as may be required in emergency situations to prevent personal injury or property damage; (b) keep the Property insured under its existing insurance policies; and (c) not voluntarily grant any lien or cause any instrument to be recorded that would further encumber the Property in any manner unless Purchaser otherwise approves in writing the grant or recording.
10.2Tenant Defaults; Proceedings. Seller will not institute any proceedings against a Tenant without Purchaser’s prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that Seller may institute a proceeding for delinquent rent without Purchaser’s consent, provided it is brought within six (6) months of the Closing Date and does not seek eviction of Tenant.  Seller shall provide Purchaser with copies of any notices sent by Seller to a Tenant after the Effective Date if such notices allege a default by the Tenant or exercise remedies of landlord under the lease following a default by the Tenant.  Purchaser will be deemed to have approved commencement of proceedings if Purchaser fails to respond within ten (10) days after Purchaser receives written notice of Seller’s intent to commence proceedings.
10.3Services Agreements; Leases. Seller shall observe and perform, or cause to be observed and performed, all material obligations of Seller as the landlord under the Leases and as a party to the Service Agreements in a manner consistent with Seller’s operation of the Property as of the Effective Date. From the Effective Date through the Closing Date, Seller will not, without first obtaining Purchaser’s consent enter into new service agreements or amend existing Service Agreements (“New Service Agreements”) unless the agreement is a New Service Agreement for usual and customary property management matters, which can be terminated at Closing.  Furthermore, from the Effective Date through the Closing Date, Seller will not enter into new leases or amend existing Leases with respect to the Property.  Purchaser will be deemed to have consented to any proposed New Service Agreement unless Seller receives

12


written notice from Purchaser, specifically setting forth the areas of objection within ten (10) days following receipt by Purchaser of the proposed New Service Agreement.

10.4Tenant Inducement Costs.  At Closing, Seller shall provide a credit to Purchaser for all tenant concessions, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions or fees set forth on Schedule 6 attached hereto (collectively, the “Seller Tenant Inducement Costs”) that are unpaid and outstanding as of the Closing.  Upon Closing, Purchaser will assume all liability for, and shall thereafter pay, all tenant concessions, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions or fees.
Article XI

CLOSING PRORATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS; PAYMENT OF CLOSING COSTS
11.1General. Seller shall pay (i) all of Seller’s legal fees, (ii) expenses Seller might incur in connection with its election to remove objections to title, and any apportionment to be made pursuant to this Article XI, (iii) the costs of curing all Required Removal Items, (iv) the commission due to Seller’s Broker pursuant to Section 15.4, and (v) all applicable transfer taxes, excise taxes, documentary stamp taxes and similar charges relating to transfer of the Property to Purchaser. Purchaser shall pay (a) all of Purchaser’s legal fees, (b) the fees for recording the Deed, (c) the premiums for any title insurance (including endorsements) requested by Purchaser or its lender, (d) the cost of Purchaser’s inspections of the Property, (e) the cost of any New Survey, including updates or revisions necessary to comply with the requirements of Purchaser or its lender, (f) any costs to finance its purchase of the Property, including, but not limited to, any taxes relating thereto, and (g) any escrow and/or settlement fees charged by the Escrow Agent. All other costs and expenses incident to this transaction and the closing thereof shall be paid by the party incurring same.
11.2Prorations. All income and expenses in connection with the operation of the Property shall be apportioned, as of 11:59 p.m. (eastern time) on the day prior to the Closing Date (the “Cut Off Time”), as if Purchaser were vested with title to the Property during the entire Closing Date, such that, except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall have the benefit of income and the burden of expenses for the day preceding the Closing Date (including, without limitation, any deferred rent received after Closing which relates to a period prior to Closing) and the Purchaser shall have the benefit of income and the burden of expenses for the Closing Date and thereafter (provided, however, that in the event that any of the Leases or subleases, if any, covering all or part of the Property provide that the tenants or subtenants thereunder are responsible for direct payment of any of the expenses and the tenants or subtenants are current with respect to such direct payment obligations, such expenses shall not be apportioned as between Seller and Purchaser):
(a)Property taxes (which for all purposes under this Article XI, shall include personal property taxes) as more particularly set forth below and in Section 11.3(b);
(b)Rents as and when collected including base rents, escalations, additional rent and percentage rent (“Rents”) as further described below;
(c)Water, sewer, gas, electric, vault and fuel charges, if any;
(d)Operating expenses for the Property including sums due or already paid pursuant to any Service Agreements;
(e)Amounts paid pursuant to all transferable licenses and permits, on the basis of the fiscal year for which levied;

13


(f)Assessments but only for the annual installment for the fiscal year in which the Closing occurs; and
(g)Any other operating expenses or other items pertaining to the Property which are customarily prorated between a purchaser and a seller in comparable commercial transactions in the area in which the Property is located.

The provisions of this Section 11.2 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.

11.3Rents.
(a)Purchaser shall receive a credit for all prepaid Rents, if any, paid by any tenants, including, without limitation the outstanding reconciliation credits due to tenants under their leases for the calendar year 2026 (collectively, “Prepaid Rents”)  At or prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver a schedule of Prepaid Rents to Purchaser current as of the Closing Date. Rents under the Leases will be adjusted and prorated on an “if as and when collected” basis.  Unpaid Rents for the month of Closing or past due Rents owing by any tenant for any prior period (“Delinquent Rents”) shall not be prorated on the Closing Date.  Purchaser shall cause any such Delinquent Rents for the period prior to Closing to be remitted to Seller if, as and when collected.  At or before Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a schedule of all such Delinquent Rents (the “Delinquent Rents Schedule”).  Additionally, there shall be no proration of any rent that a tenant delivers to either Purchaser or Seller and that such tenant has identified, at the time of such delivery, as constituting payment or rent due for a month or other period prior to the month in which the Closing occurs (“Identified Pre-Closing Rent”).  If Purchaser receives any such Identified Pre-Closing Rent, Purchaser shall cause such Identified Pre-Closing Rent to be remitted to Seller if, as, and when collected.  Until the date that is three (3) months after the Closing, Purchaser shall include such Delinquent Rents in its normal billing and shall pursue the collection thereof in good faith after the Closing Date (but Purchaser shall not be required to litigate or declare a default under any Lease or pursue any other action or remedy in connection with the recovery from tenants of such Delinquent Rents).  To the extent Purchaser receives payment of rents (or income in connection with other tenant charges) on or after the Closing Date other than Identified Pre-Closing Rent, such payments shall be applied first, to the month of the Closing; second, to amounts due Purchaser for periods following the month in which the Closing occurred; and then third, to any Delinquent Rents (or other tenant charges) owed to Seller; provided, however, deferred rent amounts as set forth on Schedule 8 which relate to periods prior to the Closing Date but are not due and payable until after the Closing Date (i) shall not be considered Delinquent Rents, (ii) shall not be payable to Seller as and when received by Purchaser following Closing, and (iii) shall become the sole property of Purchaser at the Closing; and provided further, however that any year-end or similar reconciliation payment shall be allocated as hereinafter provided.  The party receiving such amount shall pay to the other party the portion to which it is entitled, within ten (10) days of its receipt of same.  Within the first year after Closing, Purchaser may not waive any Delinquent Rents or modify a Lease so as to reduce or otherwise affect amounts owed thereunder for any period in which Seller is entitled to receive a share of charges or amounts without first obtaining Seller’s written consent.  Seller shall have no right to pursue any remedy for damages against any tenant owing Delinquent Rents and any other amounts to Seller following the Closing. With respect to Delinquent Rents and any other amounts or other rights of any kind respecting tenants who are no longer tenants of the Property as of the Closing Date, Seller shall retain all of the rights relating thereto.
(b)Supplementing Section 11.3(a) above, additional or escalation rent based upon: (x) a percentage of sales, or (y) tenant’s share of real estate taxes, operating expenses, marketing charges, labor costs, costs of living indices or porter’s wages, or any other form(s) of reimbursable tenant expenses however defined and determined under the applicable lease are collectively referred to herein as “Reimbursable Tenant Expenses”.   Seller’s “share” of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for the calendar year in which Closing occurs (the “Closing Year”) shall be determined as follows in this subsection.  

14


Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no proration at the Closing of any such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses that are delinquent or unpaid as of Closing. Rather, until the date that is three (3) months after the Closing, Purchaser shall include such delinquencies (or unpaid amounts) in its normal billing and shall pursue the collection thereof in good faith after the Closing Date (but Purchaser shall not be required to litigate or declare a default under any Lease or pursue any other action or remedy in connection with the recovery from tenants of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses relating to any period prior to the Closing Date).
(i)For the Closing Year.  To enable Purchaser to make any year-end reconciliations of tenant reimbursements of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses for the Closing Year after the end thereof, Seller shall determine in accordance with Section 11.3(b) hereof the aggregate Reimbursable Tenant Expenses actually paid or incurred by Seller for the portion of the Closing Year during which Seller owned the Property (“Seller’s Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses”) and the aggregate tenant reimbursements for such Reimbursable Tenant Expenses actually paid to Seller by tenants for the portion of the Closing Year during which Seller owned the Property (“Seller’s Actual Tenant Reimbursements”).  On or before the date that is one hundred (100) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a reconciliation statement (“Seller’s Reconciliation Statement”) setting forth (i) Seller’s Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses, (ii) Seller’s Actual Tenant Reimbursements, and (iii) a calculation of the difference, if any, between the two (i.e., establishing that Seller’s Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses were either more or less than or equal to Seller’s Actual Tenant Reimbursements).  Any amount due to Seller pursuant to the foregoing calculation (if Seller’s Actual Tenant Reimbursements are less than Seller’s Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses) or Purchaser (if Seller’s Actual Tenant Reimbursements are more than Seller’s Actual Reimbursable Tenant Expenses), as the case may be, shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller or by Seller to Purchaser, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Seller’s Reconciliation Statement to Purchaser.  If Purchaser is paid any such amount by Seller, Purchaser thereafter shall be obligated to promptly remit the applicable portion to the particular tenants entitled thereto, if any.  Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from and against any losses, costs, claims, damages, and liabilities, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith, arising out of or resulting from Purchaser’s failure to remit any amounts actually received from Seller to tenants in accordance with the provisions hereof.  If Purchaser has transferred its interest in the Property to a successor-in-interest or assignee prior to such date, then, on or before the transfer of its interest in the Property, Purchaser shall (i) in writing expressly obligate such successor-in-interest or assignee to be bound by the provisions of this Section, and (ii) deliver written notice of such transfer to Seller, and thereafter Seller shall make the deliveries specified above to Purchaser’s successor-in-interest or assignee.  Absent manifest error, Seller’s Reconciliation Statement shall be final and binding for purposes of this Agreement.
(ii)For Prior Calendar Years.  Seller shall be responsible for the reconciliation with tenants of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses and tenant reimbursements thereof for any calendar year prior to the Closing Year.  If the amount of tenant reimbursements collected by Seller for such prior years is less than the amount of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses paid by Seller for such period (or less than the amount that Seller is entitled to recover under the terms of the Leases), then Seller shall be entitled to bill such tenants directly and retain any such amounts due from tenants.  If the amount of tenant reimbursements collected by Seller for such prior calendar year exceeds the amount of Reimbursable Tenant Expenses paid by Seller with respect to such period (or the amount that Seller is entitled to recover under the terms of the Leases), then, to the extent required under the terms of the Leases, Seller shall remit such excess amounts to the applicable tenants.  In connection with the foregoing, Seller shall be permitted to make and retain copies of all Leases and all billings concerning tenant reimbursements for such prior years, and Purchaser covenants and agrees to provide Seller with reasonable access to the books and records pertaining to such tenant

15


reimbursements, and to otherwise cooperate with Seller (at no material out-of-pocket cost to Purchaser) for the purpose of enabling Seller to adequately respond to any claim by tenants for reimbursement of tenant reimbursements previously paid by such tenants.  
(iii)Percentage Rent.  If any tenant of the Property is obligated to pay percentage rent based upon the calendar year or lease year in which the Closing occurs, as determined based upon the period in which percentage rent is calculated under the applicable Lease (the “Percentage Rent Year”), Purchaser shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such payment with respect to the Percentage Rent Year, remit to Seller that portion which is equal to the number of days which elapsed between the commencement date of the Percentage Rent Year for each such tenant, and the Closing Date, and the total number of days in such Percentage Rent Year.  If Seller has received payments of percentage rent based on any Percentage Rent Year in which the date of Closing occurs, in excess of Seller’s share as calculated as set forth above, it shall promptly pay such excess to Purchaser.  
(c)The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.
11.4Security Deposits. All security deposits made by any of the tenants of the Property now held by Seller, including without limitation the security deposits as shown on Schedule 9, or received by Seller prior to Closing, will be turned over or credited to Purchaser at the Closing. If Seller is holding any security deposits in the form of letters of credit, Purchaser will not receive a credit for such security deposits. Purchaser will indemnify and hold Seller harmless and free from any liability with respect to security deposits turned over or credited to Purchaser and such hold harmless will include any security deposits in the form of letters of credit which are transferred to Purchaser. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to cause security deposits that are in the form of a letter of credit or other instrument to be transferred or re-issued to Purchaser, and Seller shall pay any transfer fees associated with such transfer.
11.5Final Adjustment After Closing.
(a)Unless a different period is provided for under Section11.3(b), if final bills are not available or cannot be issued prior to Closing for any item being prorated under this Article XI, then Purchaser and Seller shall re-prorate such items on a fair and equitable basis on or before the later of (x) ninety (90) days after Closing or (y) thirty (30) days after the date that Seller and Purchaser are able to determine 2026 calendar year property taxes, which proration shall be based on 100% of the assessed value; provided, however, if Purchaser elects to contest the property taxes for calendar year 2026, there shall be a final re-proration within the later of (a) thirty (30) days of receipt of the final 2026 calendar year property taxes, or (2) the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the Closing. Such final re-proration shall be based on 100% of the final tax bills following the resolution of any such appeal or as of the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the Closing, as applicable. Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of its election to appeal the calendar year 2026 real estate taxes and shall keep Seller reasonably informed of the progress of any appeal, including the final resolution. Payments in connection with the final adjustment will be due within ten (10) business days of notice.
(b)Purchaser and Seller agree to cooperate and to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such adjustments in accordance with times set forth in this Section 11.5. In addition, if any error in either the calculations or amount of final figures used in a closing adjustment is discovered within sixty (60) days after Closing, Purchaser and Seller agree to correct such error promptly upon notice from the other party and to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such adjustment within such sixty (60) day period after Closing.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all reprorations and adjustments contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed within one (1) year after Closing.

16


(c)This Section 11.5 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed for the time periods set forth in this Section 11.5.
Article XII

DEFAULT
12.1Default by Purchaser. IF PURCHASER FAILS TO CONSUMMATE THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY REASON OTHER THAN SELLER’S DEFAULT OR THE PERMITTED TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT BY EITHER SELLER OR PURCHASER AS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IF SUCH FAILURE CONTINUES FOR FIFTEEN (15) DAYS AFTER WRITTEN NOTICE FROM SELLER TO PURCHASER (PROVIDED, NO SUCH NOTICE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR A FAILURE TO DEPOSIT THE DEPOSIT WITH ESCROW AGENT OR A FAILURE TO CLOSE ON THE CLOSING DATE), SELLER WILL BE ENTITLED, AS ITS SOLE REMEDY, TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR THE BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT. IT IS AGREED BETWEEN SELLER AND PURCHASER THAT THE ACTUAL DAMAGES TO SELLER IN THE EVENT OF SUCH BREACH ARE IMPRACTICAL TO ASCERTAIN, AND THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE THEREOF. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, SELLER SHALL RETAIN ALL ITS RIGHTS PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, AT LAW, OR IN EQUITY, AND NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 12.1, WILL LIMIT THE LIABILITY OF PURCHASER UNDER (I) ANY INDEMNITY PROVIDED BY PURCHASER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT; (II) ANY OF THE DOCUMENTS AND INSTRUMENTS EXECUTED AND DELIVERED TO SELLER PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT; OR (III) ANY ACTIONS COMMENCED AFTER CLOSING WITH RESPECT TO ANY OBLIGATION OR REPRESENTATION OF EITHER SELLER OR PURCHASER, WHICH BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SURVIVES CLOSING, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROVISIONS REGARDING CONFIDENTIALITY AND PAYMENT OF BROKERAGE FEES.
12.2Default by Seller. In the event of any default by Seller on the Closing Date under the terms of this Agreement and if such default continues for fifteen (15) days after written notice from Purchaser to Seller of such default (provided no such notice shall be required for a failure to Close on the Closing Date), Purchaser’s sole remedies will be either to: (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser shall receive a refund of the Deposit and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs for conducting Due Diligence, except that such cost reimbursement shall not exceed Seventy-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($75,000.00); or (ii) to commence within ninety (90) days of the date the Closing was to have occurred and diligently prosecute an action in the nature of specific performance. If an action in the nature of specific performance is not an available remedy as a direct result of Seller’s voluntary sale and conveyance of the Property to a third-party prior to Closing, then the Deposit will be returned to Purchaser, and Purchaser will have available to it an action at law or otherwise for damages.
Article XIII

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
13.1Seller’s Representations. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser the following (collectively, “Seller’s Representations”) as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date, provided that certain of Seller’s Representations may be modified as a result of changes in facts or circumstances after the date hereof, which shall not be deemed to cause a breach of any of Seller’s Representations unless Seller causes such changed facts or circumstances in violation of the terms of this Agreement, all as set forth in

17


Section 15.22 and in accordance therewith.  Purchaser’s remedies in the instance that any of Seller’s Representations are untrue as of the Closing Date are limited to those set forth in Article XII.

(h)Seller has complied in all material respects with the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001, which comprises Title III of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and the rules and regulations administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), to the extent such laws are applicable to it.  Neither Seller nor, to Seller’s knowledge, its partners, members, principal stockholders and any other constituent entities, is included on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the OFAC, or is a resident in, or organized or chartered under the laws of, (i) a jurisdiction that has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury under Section 311 or 312 of the Patriot Act as warranting special measures due to money laundering concerns or (ii) any foreign country that has been designated as non-cooperative with international anti-money laundering principles or procedures by an intergovernmental group or organization, such as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, of which the United States is a member and with which designation the United States representative to the group or organization continues to concur.  The foregoing representation is not applicable to any indirect owners of Seller whose ownership interest is solely in the form of publicly traded stocks or other securities acquired in a publicly traded market.
(i)Except as set forth in Schedule 10, to Seller’s knowledge, no pending or threatened litigation, including condemnations, involving the Property or Seller exists.

(l)There is no receivership, or voluntary or, to Seller’s knowledge, involuntary proceeding in bankruptcy or pursuant to any other debtor relief laws, pending by or against Seller.
(m)Except as set forth in Schedule 6, to Seller’s knowledge, there are no outstanding tenant concessions, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions or fees with respect to the Leases, excluding with respect to any unexercised renewal or extension terms under the Leases.

(o)The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, to Seller’s knowledge, without independent investigation, there are no errors or omissions in such Financial Statements that would cause such Financial Statements to be untrue or incomplete in any material respect.
13.2Definition of Seller’s Knowledge.  Any representation made “to Seller’s knowledge” will not be deemed to imply any duty of inquiry. For purposes of this Agreement, the term Seller’s “knowledge” means the actual knowledge (and not the constructive or implied knowledge) of the Designated Representative of Seller and will not be construed to refer to the knowledge of any other officer, director, agent, employee or representative of the Seller, or any Affiliate of Seller, or to impose upon such Designated Representative of Seller any duty to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge or the absence

19


thereof pertains, or to impose upon such Designated Representative of Seller any individual personal liability. As used herein, the term “Designated Representative of Seller” refers to C. Brent Winn, Jr., who is Chief Financial Officer of Medalist Diversified REIT, Inc., which is the General Partner of Medalist Diversified Holdings, LP, which is the Sole Member of Seller.  The Designated Representative of Seller has knowledge of the matters which are the subject of Seller’s representations and warranties in Section 13.1 above.

The compliance with or fulfillment of the terms and conditions hereof will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser is otherwise bound, which conflict, breach or default would have a material adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
(c)No pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened litigation involving Purchaser exists which if determined adversely would restrain the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or would declare illegal, invalid or non-binding any of Purchaser’s obligations or covenants to Seller.

15.7Assignment. Purchaser will not assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder without Seller’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, and any attempted assignment or transfer without Seller’s consent will be null and void ab initio and of no effect. The foregoing notwithstanding, provided that Purchaser is in compliance with the conditions hereinafter set forth, Purchaser shall have the right to assign this Agreement, without Seller’s consent, provided (a) the assignment is effective on or prior to the Closing Date, (b) the assignment is to an affiliate of Purchaser and/or a subsidiary controlled by Purchaser and created for the purpose of purchasing the Property, (c) the assignment includes all of Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to the Deposit, and provides for the assumption of all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, (d) that such assignee has assumed any and all obligations and liabilities of Purchaser under this Agreement pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Seller, and (e) Purchaser provides Seller, at least twenty (20) days’ prior to Closing, with written notice of such assignment. Any assignment which fails to meet the criteria of this Section 15.7 or to which Seller has not otherwise consented shall be void and of no force or effect. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller prior to Closing, and as a condition to the effectiveness of any such assignment, such supporting evidence of the foregoing as is reasonably required by Seller.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Purchaser assignment of this Agreement will not relieve Purchaser of its obligations hereunder and, subsequent to any such assignment, Purchaser’s liability hereunder will continue notwithstanding the assignment or any subsequent modification or amendment of this Agreement or the release(s) of any subsequent purchaser hereunder from any liability.
15.8Further Assurances. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to complete, execute and deliver to the appropriate governmental authorities any returns, affidavits or other instruments that may be required with respect to any transfer, gains, sales, stamps and similar taxes, if any, arising out of this transaction.
15.9Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina.
15.10Non-Business Days.  If the time period by which any acts or payments required hereunder must be performed or paid expires on a Saturday, Sunday or federally recognized holiday, then such time period shall be automatically extended to the close of business on the next business day.

15.12Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which, when taken together shall constitute fully executed originals.
15.13E-mail or PDF Signatures. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by e-mail or PDF shall be valid and effective to bind the party so signing.

24


parties, nor any representations made by either party relative to the subject matter hereof, which are not expressly set forth herein.  If any portion of this Agreement becomes or is held to be illegal, null or void or against public policy, for any reason, the remaining portions of this Agreement will not be affected thereby and will remain in force and effect to the fullest extent permissible by law.

15.15No Waiver. No waiver by Purchaser or Seller of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement by the other party will be construed or held to be a waiver of any succeeding or preceding breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. No waiver of any default by Purchaser or Seller under this Agreement will be implied from any omission by the other party to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect a default other than as specified in such waiver. The consent or approval by Purchaser or Seller to or of any act by the other party requiring the consent or approval of the first party will not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary such party’s consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar acts by the other party.
15.16Limitation of Liability. If Purchaser becomes aware after Closing of any breach and/or violation of any of Seller’s representations and/or warranties set forth herein or of any other matter for which Seller would or could become liable to Purchaser, whether hereunder or under any Closing document, and Purchaser timely commences any action(s) to enforce any alleged breach and/or violation of any of the representations and/or warranties of Seller as set forth in this Agreement or to enforce any other claims for liability against Seller, and, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any document executed by Seller pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, in no event shall Seller be liable for any special, consequential, speculative, punitive or similar damages, nor shall Seller’s liability in any such event or events exceed in the aggregate Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/Dollars ($250,000.00) (“Seller’s Maximum Liability”) and no claim by Purchaser may be made and Seller shall not be liable for any judgment in any action based upon any such claim unless and until Purchaser’s claims are for an aggregate amount in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand and No/Dollars ($25,000.00) (the “Claims Threshold”), in which event Seller’s liability respecting any final judgment concurring such claim(s) shall be for the entire amount thereof, subject to Seller’s Maximum Liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 15.16, Seller’s obligation to pay (i) the Broker or to indemnify Purchaser for any claims by brokers in accordance with Section 15.5 or (ii) prorations as set forth in Article XI shall be excluded for purposes of calculating Seller’s Maximum Liability. The amount of Seller’s Maximum Liability shall be exclusive of any attorneys’ fees, and ancillary court and experts’ costs and fees payable to Purchaser.  The provisions of this Section 15.16 will survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.
15.17Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
15.18Successors and Assigns. Subject to the limitations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, each and all of the covenants and conditions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and will be binding upon the successors-in-interest, assigns, and representatives of the parties hereto. As used in the foregoing, “successors” refers to the successors to all or substantially all of the assets of parties hereto and to their successors by merger or consolidation.
15.19No Partnership or Joint Venture. Seller or Purchaser will not, by virtue of this Agreement, in any way or for any reason be deemed to have become a partner of the other in the conduct of its business or otherwise, or a joint venturer. In addition, by virtue of this Agreement there shall not be deemed to have occurred a merger of any joint enterprise between Purchaser and Seller.

25


15.20No Recordation. Seller and Purchaser each agrees that neither this Agreement nor any memorandum, short form agreement or notice hereof shall be recorded, and Purchaser further agrees (a) not to file any notice of pendency, lis pendens or other instrument (other than a judgment) against the Property or any portion thereof, and (b) to be responsible for and to indemnify Seller against all Liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred by Seller by reason of the filing by Purchaser of any such notice of pendency, lis pendens or other instrument.
15.21Designation Agreement. Section 6045(e) of the United States Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (herein collectively called the “Reporting Requirements”) require an information return to be made to the United States Internal Revenue Service, and a statement to be furnished to Seller, in connection with the Transaction. Escrow Agent is either (x) the person responsible for closing the Transaction (as described in the Reporting Requirements) or (y) the disbursing title or escrow company that is most significant in terms of gross proceeds disbursed in connection with the Transaction (as defined in the Reporting Requirements). Accordingly:
(a)Escrow Agent is hereby designated as the “Reporting Person” (as defined in the Reporting Requirements) for the Transaction. Escrow Agent shall perform all duties that are required by the Reporting Requirements to be performed by the Reporting Person for the Transaction.
(b)Seller and Purchaser shall furnish to Escrow Agent, in a timely manner, any information requested by Escrow Agent and necessary for Escrow Agent to perform its duties as Reporting Person for the Transaction.
(c)Escrow Agent hereby requests Seller to furnish to Escrow Agent Seller’s correct taxpayer identification number. Seller acknowledges that any failure by Seller to provide Escrow Agent with Seller’s correct taxpayer identification number may subject Seller to civil or criminal penalties imposed by law. Accordingly, Seller hereby certifies to Escrow Agent, under penalties of perjury, that Seller’s correct taxpayer identification number is as set forth opposite Seller’s signature to this Agreement.
(d)Each of the parties hereto shall retain this Agreement for a period of four (4) years following the calendar year during which Closing occurs.

The provisions of this Section 15.21 will survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.

15.22Survival. Seller covenants, agreements, indemnities, warranties and representations contained in this Agreement and in any document executed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (except for those set forth in Sections 13.1(d), 13.1(h), 15.2, 15.16, 15.21, and this Section 15.22 which are meant to survive indefinitely) shall survive Purchaser’s purchase of the Property only for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending nine (9) months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”). It is expressly agreed that any action, suit or proceeding with respect to the truth, accuracy or completeness of all representations and warranties in this Agreement or the breach of any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or in any closing document, shall be commenced, if at all, on or before the end of the Survival Period and, if not commenced on or before such date, thereafter will be void and of no force or effect. The provisions of this Section 15.22 will survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed and/or termination of this Agreement. Purchaser shall provide written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Survival Period of any alleged breach of such covenants, indemnities, warranties or representations and shall allow Seller thirty (30) days within which to cure such breach, or, if such breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, an additional reasonable period of time so long as a cure has been commenced and is being diligently pursued. If Seller fails to cure such breach after written notice and within such cure period, Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be an action at law for actual damages as a consequences thereof, which must be commenced, if at all, within the Survival Period; provided, however, that if within the Survival Period

26


Purchaser gives Seller written notice of such a breach and Seller notifies Purchaser of Seller’s commencement of a cure, commences to cure and thereafter terminates such cure effort, Purchaser shall have an additional thirty (30) days from the date of such termination within which to commence an action at law for damages as a consequence of Seller’s failure to cure. The Survival Period referred to herein shall apply to known as well as unknown breaches of such covenants, indemnities, warranties or representations. Purchaser’s waiver(s) and release(s) set forth in Sections 1.6 and 1.7 shall apply fully to liabilities under such covenants, indemnities, representations and warranties and is hereby incorporated by this reference. Purchaser specifically acknowledges that such termination of liability represents a material element of the consideration to Seller. The limitation as to Seller’s liability in this Section 15.22 does not apply to Seller’s or Purchaser’s liability with respect to prorations and adjustments under Article XI.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, if Seller becomes aware during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing of any matters which make any of its representations or warranties untrue in any material respect, Seller shall promptly disclose such matters to Purchaser in writing. In the event that Seller so discloses any matters which make any Seller’s representations and warranties so untrue in any material respect or in the event that Purchaser otherwise becomes aware during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing of any matters which so make any of Seller’s representations or warranties untrue in any material respect, Seller shall bear no liability for such matters (provided that such untruth is not the result of Seller’s breach of any express covenant set forth in this Agreement), but shall have the opportunity to cure such matters prior to Closing.  If Seller fails to cure such matters prior to Closing, or indicates to Purchaser that it does not intend to cure such matters prior to Closing, then Purchaser shall have the right to elect in writing on or before the Closing Date, (i) to waive such matters and complete the purchase of the Property without reduction of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) as to any matters disclosed following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, to terminate this Agreement if the failure of such representations or warranties would, individually or in the aggregate, result in an adverse impact or cost on or to the Property or Purchaser.

No claim for a breach of any of Seller’s Representations shall be actionable or payable if such breach is due to or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter that was known to Purchaser or disclosed to Purchaser or its Affiliate in this Agreement, the Property Information Documents, the Closing Documents or an estoppel certificate, in each case, with reasonable specificity, or in writing delivered to Purchaser or its Affiliate prior to Closing.

15.23Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies on any person other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
15.24Exclusivity. Seller will not continue or initiate any discussions with, or enter into any agreements with, any third party regarding the sale of the Property, and Seller will not market the sale of the Property, during the period this Agreement is in effect.
15.25Access to Records Following Closing. Purchaser agrees that for a period of six (6) months following Closing, Seller shall have the right during regular business hours, on five (5) days written notice to Purchaser, to examine and review at Purchaser's office (or, at Purchaser's election, at the Property), the books and records of Seller relating to the ownership and operation of the Property, which was delivered by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing. Likewise, Seller agrees that for a period of six (6) months following the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right during regular business hours, on fifteen (15) days written notice to Seller, to examine and review at Seller’s office, records and files, if any, retained by Seller relating to the ownership and operation by Seller prior to the Closing of the Property (excluding Withheld Materials). The provisions of this Section shall survive for a period of six (6) months after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with one another in a commercially

27


reasonable manner in connection with any reconciliation or audit of tenant expenses, and such obligation shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year following Closing.

To inform the transferee (purchaser) that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by MDR FRANKLIN SQUARE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Transferor”) the undersigned hereby certifies, in the capacity stated below, but not in his or her individual capacity, the following on behalf of Transferor:

1.Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations).

2.Transferor’s Federal Employer Identification Number is ____________.

3.Transferor’s office address is: P.O. Box 8436, Richmond, Virginia 23226.

Transferor declares that it has examined this certification and to the best of its knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and further declares that the individual executing this certification on behalf of Transferor has full authority to do so.
