3



and anyone claiming by, through or under Purchaser hereby waives its right to recover from and fully and irrevocably releases Seller and Seller’s employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, members, partners, representatives, agents, servants, attorneys, affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and all persons, firms, corporations and organizations in its behalf (“Released Parties”) from any and all claims, responsibility and/or liability that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any of the Released Parties for any and all costs, losses, claims, liabilities, damages, expenses, demands, debts, controversies, claims, actions or causes of actions (collectively, “Claims”) arising from or related to the condition (including any construction defects, errors, omissions or other conditions, latent or otherwise, and the presence in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters of materials or substances that have been or may in the future be deemed to be hazardous materials or otherwise toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and that may need to be specifically treated, handled and/or removed from the Property under current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines or common law), valuation, salability or utility of the Property, condition of title to the Property, compliance with any applicable federal, state or local law, rule or regulations or common law with respect to the Property, or the Property’s suitability for any purposes whatsoever, and any information furnished by the Released Parties in connection with this Agreement.
(b)    Except for the Excepted Claims, Purchaser agrees that under no circumstances will it make any claim against, bring any action, cause of action or proceeding against, or assert any liability upon, Seller, its agents, consultants, contractors, or any other persons who prepared or furnished any of the Property Documents (as hereinafter defined) (such parties, collectively, the “Property Documents Preparers”) as a result of the inaccuracy, unreliability or insufficiency of, or any defect or mistake in, any of the Property Documents (including the negligence of any Property Documents Preparer in connection with the preparation or furnishing of any of the Property Documents), and Purchaser hereby fully and forever releases, acquits and discharges Seller and each Property Documents Preparer of and from any such claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings or liability, whether known or unknown. This release expressly includes claims of which Purchaser is presently unaware or which Purchaser does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by Purchaser, would materially affect Purchaser’s release of Seller.
(c)    To the extent permitted by law, Purchaser hereby agrees, represents and warrants that Purchaser realizes and acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to Claims which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Purchaser further agrees, represents and warrants that the waivers and releases herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of the realization, and that Purchaser nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit the Released Parties from any and all Claims, except for Excepted Claims.
1.7    Purchaser’s Waiver of Objections. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that any written disclosures or discovery made by Purchaser prior to the Closing shall constitute notice to Purchaser of the matter disclosed or discovered, and Seller shall have no further liability if Purchaser thereafter consummates the transaction contemplated hereby.
1.8    Survival. Seller and Purchaser have agreed upon the Purchase Price relating to the Property and other provisions of this Agreement in contemplation and consideration of Purchaser’s agreeing to the provisions of Sections 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, and 1.7, which Sections shall survive the Closing indefinitely and the delivery of the Deed and/or termination of this Agreement and shall not be deemed merged into the Deed or other documents executed and delivered by Purchaser or Seller, or both, at or in connection with Closing (the Deed together with such other documents, the “Closing Documents”).
ARTICLE II
PURCHASE PRICE
2.1    Purchase Price. The purchase price is One Hundred Twenty-Six Million Seven Hundred Thousand and 00/100 DOLLARS ($126,700,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price, net to Seller without deduction, credit to Purchaser or expense to Seller, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, will have been deposited by Purchaser with Escrow Agent (as defined in Section 3.1) no later than the time of Closing by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds. Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to Personal Property. The Purchase Price must be received by Seller by 4:00 P.M. New York time on a particular day in order for the Closing to be deemed to have taken place as of such date.
ARTICLE III
DEPOSIT AND OPENING OF ESCROW
3.1    Deposit. Within two (2) business days following the Effective Date and as a condition precedent to this Agreement becoming a binding agreement between the parties, Purchaser will deposit Four Million and 00/100 DOLLARS ($4,000,000.00) (the “Deposit”) with Chicago Title Insurance Company, having an office at 711 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017, Attention: Matthew Bliwise (“Escrow Agent”) by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds and will provide Escrow Agent with a fully completed form W-9 which provides Purchaser’s tax identification number. If Purchaser fails to deposit the Deposit within the time period provided for above, Seller may at any time prior to Escrow Agent’s receipt of the Deposit, terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations to the other hereunder, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement. The Deposit shall be non-refundable, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.
3.2    Interest Bearing. The Deposit shall be held in an interest-bearing escrow account by Escrow Agent in an institution as directed by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. All interest and income on the Deposit will be remitted to the party entitled to the Deposit pursuant to this Agreement.
3.3    Application. If Closing occurs, the Deposit will be credited against the Purchase Price at Closing. If the Closing does not occur in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Deposit shall be delivered to the party entitled to the Deposit, as provided in this Agreement. In all events,

ARTICLE IV

(a)    Performance by Seller. Seller’s performance in all material respects of the obligations, covenants and deliveries required of Seller under this Agreement.
(b)    Seller’s Deliveries. Seller’s delivery at Closing of the following, all documents to be executed originals, unless otherwise indicated below, and, if applicable, witnessed and properly acknowledged, provided, however that delivery of the items set forth in Section 4.1(b)(iii), (iv), (v) and (x) may be accomplished via on-site delivery at the Property or in such other manner as agreed by Purchaser and Seller:
(i)    The Deed in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, subject to the following matters (the “Deed”):
(1)    Non-delinquent real property taxes, water and sewer charges and all assessments (governmental and private) and unpaid installments thereof which are not yet due and payable, subject to the provisions of Section 11.2;
(2)    Any matter (including any lien, encumbrance or easement) voluntarily imposed or consented to in writing by Purchaser prior to or as of the Closing;
(3)    Laws and governmental regulations, including all building codes, zoning regulations and ordinances, that affect the use, operation and maintenance of the Property;
(4)    Such state of facts as may be shown on an accurate and current survey or by inspection of the Property;
(5)    Rights of tenants, as tenants only, of the Land and Improvements under the terms and conditions of all Leases assigned to Purchaser under the Assignment and Assumption Agreement (hereinafter defined), with Purchaser hereby acknowledging that Purchaser has examined such Leases; and
(6)    the Permitted Exceptions.

5



(ii)    The Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit E (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”);
(iii)    The Leases (copies of which shall be acceptable if originals are unavailable), together with any letters of credit held as security deposits under any of the Leases and all instruments reasonably required to transfer such letters of credit to Purchaser;
(iv)    The Service Agreements (copies of which shall be acceptable if originals are unavailable), which are being assumed by Purchaser;
(v)    The License Agreements (copies of which shall be acceptable if originals are unavailable);
(vi)    A Certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F that Seller is not a “foreign person”;
(vii)    A copy of an Assistant Secretary’s Certificate evidencing the authority of individuals to execute any instruments executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, together with a certificate of good standing of Seller;
(viii)    A Bill of Sale in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G;
(ix)    A closing statement in form and content satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser (the “Closing Statement”) signed by Seller, which Closing Statement may be transmitted via PDF;
(x)    All keys and lock combinations for the Property and all leasing and other files relating to the Property and all other licenses, certificates, permits, plans, books, records and reports and other materials that comprise the Intangible Property, to the extent such items are in Seller’s or its property manager’s actual possession or control;
(xi)    Original tenant estoppel certificates executed by tenants under existing Leases at the Property (the Required Tenant Estoppel Certificates): (A) for tenants occupying 20,000 square feet or more of leased square footage in the Improvements (each a Major Tenant and collectively, the Major Tenants); and (B) for a sufficient number of tenants (including the Major Tenants) such that estoppel certificates (inclusive of the estoppel certificates received from the Major Tenants) have been received from tenants leasing not less than eighty percent (80%) of the leased square footage inclusive of the space leased to the Major Tenants. Each Required Tenant Estoppel Certificate (1) will be on the form attached to the applicable Lease, if any, or if there is no form attached to the Lease, then will be substantially on the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (provided, however, if any Lease limits the provisions to be included in any estoppel certificate, the form shall be modified accordingly and no effect shall be given to any requirement in any Lease regarding “additional information reasonably requested by the lessor” or words of similar import); and (2) will not have been modified in any substantive, adverse manner. The addition of a knowledge qualification to an estoppel certificate will not cause such tenant estoppel

6



certificate to fail to satisfy the requirements for an acceptable Required Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.1(b)(xi), Seller shall have no obligation to deliver an estoppel certificate from any tenant if (i) such tenant has vacated the Property after the Effective Date, (ii) such tenant’s Lease has terminated at any time from the Effective Date to the Closing Date, or (iii) such tenant is subject to bankruptcy proceedings as of the Closing (or on account of a rejected lease in bankruptcy). Seller will deliver estoppel certificates to all of the tenants under the Leases (except Seller may instead request a statement of lease from a tenant under any Government Lease) and request that the estoppel certificates be returned to Seller. Prior to delivery of the estoppel certificates to the tenants, Seller shall deliver drafts of the proposed estoppel certificates to Purchaser for review, and Purchaser shall provide to Seller any comments that Purchaser may have to the estoppel certificates within two (2) business days after Purchaser’s receipt of such estoppel certificates for review; and if Purchaser fails to respond with comments within such two (2) business day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved of such form of estoppel certificates. In the event Seller fails, for any reason, to deliver to the Purchaser the required number of Required Tenant Estoppel Certificates in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.1(b)(xi) prior to the Closing (as the same may be extended in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1 of this Agreement), then Seller will not be deemed in default hereunder, and Purchaser’s sole remedy will be to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Escrow Agent will return the Deposit to Purchaser, and both parties will be relieved of any further obligations hereunder, except for the obligations hereunder which expressly survive Closing or other termination of this Agreement.
(xii)    A Tenant Notice Letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L executed by Seller to be mailed out by Purchaser upon Closing;
(xiii)    All applicable real estate transfer tax forms and affidavits;
(xiv)    A Title Affidavit executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit Q attached hereto;

(xvi)    A Quitclaim Deed to the Canyon Park Business Center Owners’ Association (the “Association”) executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit T attached hereto (the “Roadways Quitclaim Deed”), quitclaiming the property set forth on Exhibit A to the Quitclaim Deed (the “Parcel 7 and Parcel 8 Roadways”) to the Association, which Roadways Quitclaim Deed shall be recorded in the order specified on Schedule 4.1 attached hereto;
(xvii)    A Quitclaim Deed executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit V attached hereto (the “TIAA/Association Conduit System Quitclaim Deed”), quitclaiming the conduit system as described in the TIAA/Association Conduit System Quitclaim Deed

7



to Purchaser, which TIAA/Association Conduit System Quitclaim Deed shall be recorded in the order specified on Schedule 4.1 attached hereto;
(xviii)    A Quitclaim Bill of Sale executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit V-1 attached hereto (the “TIAA Conduit System Quitclaim Bill of Sale”), quitclaiming the conduit system as described in the TIAA Conduit System Quitclaim Bill of Sale to Purchaser;
(xix)    A First Amendment to Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Easement executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit Y attached hereto (the “Amendment to Highlands Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement”), which Amendment to Highlands Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement shall be recorded in the order specified on Schedule 4.1 attached hereto;
(xx)    An Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit Y-1 attached hereto, with respect to the Highlands Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement (hereinafter defined) (the “Assignment and Assumption of Highlands Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement”), which Assignment and Assumption of Highlands Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement shall be recorded in the order specified on Schedule 4.1 attached hereto;
(xxi)    An Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by Seller in the form of Exhibit Z attached hereto (the “Assignment and Assumption of MIG Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement”), with respect to that certain Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Easement, recorded on January 28, 2003 under Document Number 200301281248 of the Public Records of Snohomish County, Washington (the “MIG Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement”), which Assignment and Assumption of MIG Fiber Optic Construction and Maintenance Agreement shall be recorded in the order specified on Schedule 4.1 attached hereto; and
(xxii)    Such additional assignments, instruments and documents appropriate to be executed and delivered by Seller as may be reasonably necessary to complete the transaction contemplated hereby and to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement provided the same are commercially reasonable and do not require disclosure of proprietary information.

11.5    Security Deposits. All security deposits made by any of the tenants of the Property now held by Seller, as shown on Exhibit B-1, 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 or re-issued in the name of 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 in the name of Purchaser, and, until such transfer or re-issuance, Seller shall, as Purchaser’s agent and at its request, draw on any letter of credit in accordance with the applicable Lease and deliver the proceeds to Purchaser. : Further, if as of the Closing Seller is holding any letter of credit which was issued to Seller as security for a tenant’s obligations under any its Lease, Seller agrees to execute a reasonable transfer request form provided by the issuer to assign the beneficial interest in such letter of credit to Purchaser and to deliver such transfer form and the original letter of credit to Purchaser at Closing; provided that Purchaser is responsible for the payment of any required transfer fee which is not the responsibility of the applicant. In the event Purchaser makes such a request, and Seller effects a draw on the letter of credit and delivers the applicable proceeds to Purchaser, Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from any claims arising therefrom, including any assertion by a tenant that such draw was wrongful or a breach of the applicable lease, which indemnification shall be inclusive of reasonable attorney’s fees. Any out-of-pocket expense incurred by Seller in such cooperation shall be promptly reimbursed by Purchaser. The indemnity provided by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.
11.6    Parcel 6 Roadway Credit. Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of $8,500 for the costs of conveyance of the Parcel 6 Roadway after Closing to the Association.
11.7    Final Adjustment After Closing. If final bills are not available or cannot be issued prior to Closing for any item being prorated under this Article, then Purchaser and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as such bills are available, final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing. Payments in connection with the final adjustment will be due within ten (10) business days of notice. Purchaser and Seller agree to cooperate and to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such adjustments not more than sixty (60) days after Closing. In addition, if any obvious 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. This Section 11.7 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed for a period of six (6) months from the Closing Date.
11.8    Actual Number of Days. All prorations and/or adjustments provided for in this Agreement will be made based on the actual number of days in the month of Closing, unless specifically stated otherwise.
ARTICLE XII
DEFAULT
12.1    Default by Purchaser. IF PURCHASER DEFAULTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, 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, AND/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..
12.2    Default by Seller. In the event of any default by Seller in the terms of this Agreement (provided that a failure to close as a result of Seller not receiving internal authorization to consummate the transaction as required by Section 15.15 of this Agreement will not constitute a default hereunder), Purchaser’s sole remedies will be either to: (i) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit; and if Seller’s default is a result of the willful misconduct of Seller, an amount not to exceed $150,000 for Purchaser’s third-party, out-of-pocket transaction costs after submission to Seller by Purchaser of invoices supporting such costs, in full consideration of any claims Purchaser may have against the Seller; or (ii) to commence within sixty (60) 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 or if Purchaser elects to commence such action and is unsuccessful, then the Deposit will be returned to Purchaser and the parties released from their obligations under this Agreement (except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement). Under no circumstances will Purchaser have available to it an action at law or otherwise for damages, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.
12.3    Notice of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XII, except for a party’s failure to close on the Closing Date in breach of this Agreement, neither party shall have the right to declare a default by the other party and terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article XII because of a failure by such other party to perform under or otherwise comply with the terms of this Agreement unless the other party shall fail to cure such failure to perform or comply within five (5) business days after its receipt of written notice of such failure to perform or comply.
ARTICLE XIII

15.7    Assignment. 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 before the Closing Date, (b) the assignment is to one Affiliated Entity (as defined below) created by Purchaser for the purpose of purchasing the Property,(c) the assignment is on the form attached hereto as Exhibit O and includes all of Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to the Deposit, and provides for the assumption, for the benefit of Seller as a third-party beneficiary, 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, but, notwithstanding such assumption, Purchaser shall continue to be liable hereunder, and (e) Purchaser provides Seller, at least five (5) business days’ prior to Closing, with written notice of such assignment and executed counterparts of all documents evidencing or otherwise executed in connection with such assignment. An “Affiliated Entity” shall mean (i) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with, in each case directly or indirectly, the Purchaser named herein, NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc., NorthStar Real Estate Income II, Inc. and/or Northstar Realty Finance Corp., or (ii) any joint venture or partnership entered into by the Purchaser named herein (or an affiliate of the Purchaser named herein) for purposes of acquiring the Property, provided that an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with, in each case directly or indirectly, the Purchaser is, directly or indirectly, the general partner, manager, or managing member of such joint venture or partnership and, directly or indirectly, controls such general partner or joint venture subject to customary major decision approval rights of any non-managing member or limited partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all purposes of this Agreement, Steelwave Acquisitions, LLC shall be deemed to be an Affiliated Entity. 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.

The amount of Seller’s Maximum Liability shall be inclusive of attorneys’ fees, and ancillary court and experts’ costs and fees. The provisions of this Section 15.16 will survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.

27



IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
15.18    Successors 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.
15.19    No 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.
15.20    No Recordation. Except in connection with Purchaser’s filing of a suit for specific performance on or after the Closing Date resulting from a Seller default under this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser each agrees that neither this Agreement nor any memorandum 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. The provisions of this Section15.20 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
15.21    Designation 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 described 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.
15.22    Section 1031 Exchanges. Purchaser and Seller agree that, at either Purchaser’s or Seller’s sole election, this transaction may be structured as an exchange of like-kind properties under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and proposed regulations thereunder. The parties agree that if either wishes to make such election, it must do so by written notice to the other party at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date. If either so elects, the other shall reasonably cooperate, provided any such exchange is consummated pursuant to an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller and which shall be executed and delivered on or before the Closing Date. The electing party shall in all events be responsible for all costs and expenses related to the Section 1031 exchange and shall fully indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from and against any and all liability, claim, damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements), proceedings and causes of action of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of, connected with or in any manner related to such 1031 exchange that would not have been incurred by the non-electing party if the transaction were a purchase for cash. In no event shall any party be required to take record title to any property other than the Property in connection with such transaction.
15.23    Survival. (a) Seller’s 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(i), 15.16, 15.21 and this Section 15.23 which are meant to and shall 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 or, if another period of time is specified, such other period of time (as applicable, 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. 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 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

28



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 15.23 does not apply to Seller’s liability with respect to prorations and adjustments under Article XI.
(b)    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, 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 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 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, which breach shall be governed by Section 12.2), but 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.
(c)    The provisions of this Section 15.23 will survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed and/or termination of this Agreement.
15.24    Calculation of Time Periods. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, in computing any period of time described in this Agreement, the day of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be included, unless such last day is not a business day, in which event the period shall run until the next day which is a business day.
15.25    Portfolio Purchase. It is the intent of Seller and Purchaser that the Property is to be sold by Seller and purchased by Purchaser as an entire portfolio, upon the terms and conditions herein. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall be a termination with respect to the entire portfolio.
15.26    Form 17. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that the Real Property and the Improvements constitute “Commercial Real Estate” as defined in RCW 64.06.005. Purchaser waives receipt of the seller disclosure statement required under RCW 64.06 for transactions involving the sale of commercial real estate, except for the section entitled “Environmental.” A completed Environmental section of the seller disclosure statement is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit P (the “Environmental Disclosure Statement”). Purchaser waives its right to rescind the Agreement under RCW 64.06. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the Environmental Disclosure Statement (a) is for the purpose of disclosure only, (b) will not be

29



considered part of this Agreement, and (c) will not be construed as a representation or warranty of any kind by Seller.
