Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller may elect, by providing written notice to Buyer and Title Company, to remove and exclude any Property from this Agreement if the Phase I for such Property recommends or Buyer requests a Phase II environmental report for such Property (in such event the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for all the remaining Properties and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the Individual Purchase Price for

(a)Delivery of Preliminary Title Report and Survey. As soon as reasonably practicable, Buyer shall cause the issuance of the Title Commitment and the Survey (the issuance of the Title Commitment shall be at Seller’s sole cost and expense and the cost of the Survey shall be addressed as set forth above). The Title Commitment and the Survey are referred to herein as “Title Documents”.
(b)Title Review and Cure. During the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall review title to the Properties as disclosed by the Title Documents. Buyer shall notify the Seller before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period which title exceptions, if any, are not reasonably acceptable and therefore will not be accepted by Buyer (“Title Notice”). If Buyer fails to notify Seller in writing of its disapproval of any such exceptions before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the condition of title to the Properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, all monetary obligations disclosed in the Title Documents constituting a lien against the Real Property are to be satisfied by Seller before or at Closing. With respect to any other objections, Seller will reasonably cooperate with Buyer in curing such objections, Seller has no obligations to cure any exceptions except as expressly set forth herein. If after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period the Title Company or Surveyor materially revises any of the Title Documents to add or modify exceptions which were not requested by Buyer, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property if the provision for their removal or modification reasonably satisfactory to Buyer is not made. In such case, the Closing Date shall be extended for up to ten (10) days in order for Buyer and Seller to determine if such exception can be resolved and to give Buyer the opportunity to terminate this Agreement if the exception is not removed.

estate taxes not yet due and payable; the existence of any existing tenants leasehold rights (reserving the right to object to other matters that may appear on title, ROFR’s, etc.); and the exceptions approved (or deemed approved) by Buyer pursuant to the terms of Section 4.4 above.

4.6. Tenant Estoppel – Starbucks Lease. Seller shall endeavor to secure and deliver to Buyer an estoppel certificate from the tenant of the Starbucks Lease in a form acceptable to Buyer and Seller or in the form required under the Starbucks Lease (“Tenant Estoppel”).

Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of the Tenant Estoppel for Buyer’s review and comment before delivering the Tenant Estoppel to the tenant. Provided Seller uses good faith commercially reasonable efforts, Seller’s failure to deliver the Tenant Estoppel to Buyer as noted above shall not be a default by Seller hereunder. In the event the Tenant Estoppel is not obtained on or before the Closing, and Seller provides to Buyer the Seller Estoppel Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit G, Buyer hereby agrees to allow Seller to provide the Tenant Estoppel following the Closing pursuant to the terms of the Post Closing Obligation Letter Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit F.

If Buyer and Seller are unable to mutually agree upon all the Ancillary Documents on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate and both parties shall be released from all duties and obligations hereunder, except for such obligations hereunder that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

All risk of loss with respect to the Properties shall remain with Seller until the Closing and delivery of the Deeds vesting title in Buyer, when full risk of loss with respect to the Properties shall pass to Buyer. Seller shall promptly give Buyer written notice of any damage to any Property, describing such damage, whether such damage is covered by insurance and the estimated cost of repairing such damage. If such damage is not material, then the parties shall proceed to close this transaction, and Seller shall, to the extent possible, begin repairs prior to the Closing out of any insurance proceeds received by Seller for the damage, and shall transfer and assign any remaining insurance proceeds or rights thereto to Buyer at the Closing. If such damage is material, Buyer may elect (in its sole discretion) by notice to Seller given within ten (10) days after Buyer is notified of such damage (and the Closing shall be extended, if necessary, to give Buyer such ten (10) day period to respond to such notice) to proceed in the same manner as in the case of damage that is not material or to terminate this Agreement with respect to the damaged Property, in which event Buyer shall close the transaction with respect to the unaffected Properties, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Individual Purchase Price for the damaged Property. Damage as to any one or multiple occurrences for a particular Property is material if the cost to repair the damage, as reasonably estimated by Seller’s contractor (if Seller has engaged a contractor to perform the work), and otherwise by a contractor approved by both Buyer and Seller, acting reasonably, exceeds $250,000. Buyer further shall have the right to characterize damage as material if the damage entitles either the Tenant under the Lease or the tenant under the Starbucks Lease to terminate their respective lease or to reduce or abate rent.
15.2. Condemnation.
Seller shall promptly give Buyer notice of any eminent domain proceedings that, to its knowledge, are contemplated, threatened or instituted with respect to the Properties. By notice to Seller given within ten (10) days after Buyer receives notice of proceedings in eminent domain that are contemplated, threatened or instituted by anybody having the power of eminent domain with respect to any Property, and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Buyer the full ten (10) day period to make such election, Buyer may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property, in which event Buyer shall close the transaction with respect to the unaffected Properties, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the
Individual Purchase Price for the affected Property, or proceed under this Agreement as to the affected Property, in which event Seller shall, at the Closing, assign to Buyer its entire right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award, and Buyer with Seller shall have the right during the pendency of this Agreement to negotiate and otherwise deal with the condemning authority in respect of such matter.
16.POSSESSION AND BOOKS AND RECORDS
16.1. Possession.
Possession of the Properties shall be delivered to Buyer at the Closing subject to the Lease, the Excluded Leases and the Starbucks Lease.
16.2. Books and Records.
Within a reasonable period of time after the Closing, Seller shall deliver to the offices of Buyer or Buyer’s property manager: originals of the Lease (or copies thereof if originals are not available) and the following to the extent the same are in Seller’s possession or control: each of the items referenced in Part III of Exhibit C; all permits and warranties; all booklets, keys and other items, if any, used in the operation of the Properties; and the original “as-built” plans and specifications for the Building, to the extent available; all other available plans and specifications and all operation manuals, to the extent available; and any other information specifically requested. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer before and after Closing to transfer to Buyer any such information stored electronically; provided, however, that such information shall relate solely to the Properties and information about Seller that is not solely related to the Properties shall not be transferred hereunder.
