 Purchaser may (but shall not be obligated to) terminate this Agreement by delivering written
notice of such termination to Seller at any time prior to the expiration of the Approval Period, if, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser decides not to consummate the purchase of the Property contemplated hereby. In such
event, this Agreement will terminate as of the date of such notice, the Escrow Agent shall return all of the Earnest Money to Purchaser, without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which
might be provided by Seller, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations. If, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser determines that it desires to consummate the
purchase of the Property contemplated hereby, then Purchaser will give written notice thereof (the “Closing Notice”) to Seller, prior to the expiration of the Approval Period. In the event that Purchaser provides Seller with

Purchaser does not give Seller the Closing Notice prior to the expiration of the Approval Period and has not previously terminated this Agreement by written notice to Seller, then this Agreement automatically shall terminate upon the expiration of
the Approval Period, and, in such event, immediately following written request to the Escrow Agent from Purchaser, the Escrow Agent shall return all of the Earnest Money to Purchaser, without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and
notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations.

(as defined below) by Closing. Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following Seller’s receipt of the Title Objection Letter concerning which title objections, if any, Seller has agreed to cure. In the event that
Seller does not undertake to cure all of the objections in the Title Objection Letter to Purchaser’s sole satisfaction (or does not timely respond to the Title Objection Letter), then Purchaser shall have the right for five (5) days after
receipt of Seller’s response to the Title Objection Letter (or five (5) days following the expiration of the period within which Seller was to so respond) to either (i) waive any such title objection in writing and proceed to Closing
(in which event such waived title objection shall be deemed to be a “Permitted Encumbrance”, as defined below), or (ii) terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller and receive an immediate refund of the Earnest Money,
without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller, in which event neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for

subsequently waived in writing) are herein collectively called the “Permitted Encumbrances”. In the event that any update to the Title Commitment or Survey indicates the existence of any liens, encumbrances or other defects
or exceptions (the “Unacceptable Encumbrances”) which were not shown in the initial Title Commitment or Survey and that are unacceptable to Purchaser, in its sole discretion, Purchaser shall within five (5) days after
receipt of any such update to the Title Commitment or Survey notify Seller in writing of its objection to 

  
 4 













 
any such Unacceptable Encumbrance (the “Unacceptable Encumbrance Notice”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall have no obligation to
take any steps or bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify any of the Unacceptable Encumbrances; provided, however, that Seller shall, prior to Closing, eliminate by paying, bonding around or
otherwise discharging in a manner satisfactory to Purchaser (i) any Unacceptable Encumbrances that arise by, through or under Seller, (ii) any mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, mechanics’ liens or monetary judgments
that appear on the Title Commitment, and (iii) any liens or notices of violation issued by a governmental entity which could, if not cured, become a lien against the Property (“Monetary Liens”). In the event Seller is
unable, unwilling or for any reason fails to eliminate or modify all of the Unacceptable Encumbrances to the sole satisfaction of Purchaser (other than the Unacceptable Encumbrances and Monetary Liens required to be removed by Seller in accordance
with the preceding sentence), Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof in writing to Seller by the earliest to occur of (i) the Closing Date, (ii) five (5) days after Seller’s written notice to
Purchaser of Seller’s intent to not cure one or more of such Unacceptable Encumbrances, or (iii) ten (10) days after the Unacceptable Encumbrance Notice, in the event Seller does not timely respond thereto. Upon a termination of this
Agreement pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller, and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than the Surviving Obligations.

Contracts. Purchaser shall notify Seller prior to the expiration of the Approval Period which of the “Contracts” (as defined below) Purchaser will require Seller to cancel at Closing (the “Rejected

CLOSING 
 6.1
Closing. Assuming that all conditions to closing have been satisfied and this Agreement has not otherwise been properly and timely terminated, the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby (the “Closing”)
shall be held at the offices of the Escrow Agent, located at the address set forth in Section 9.1 hereof, on the date (the “Closing Date”) that is ten (10) days following the expiration of the
Approval Period. Seller and Purchaser agree that the Closing shall be consummated through an escrow closing with the Escrow Agent acting as escrow agent, and neither party need be present at Closing. 

6.2 Possession. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing, subject only to tenants in possession under
the Leases. 
 6.3 Proration. All rents, other amounts payable by the tenants under the Leases and the Tower Leases and Billboard
Leases, if any, and all other income with respect to the Property for the month in which the Closing occurs, to the extent collected by Seller on or before the Closing Date, and real estate and personal property taxes and other assessments with
respect to the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs, shall be prorated to the Closing Date, with Purchaser receiving the benefits and burdens of ownership on the Closing Date. To the extent any such rents, real estate taxes, personal
property taxes and other assessments with respect to the Property are unknown or otherwise not accounted for at Closing Seller’s obligation to pay its prorata share of said amounts (as calculated in


  
 11 













 
accordance with the previous sentence) to Purchaser shall survive Closing. Should any rollback or similar taxes be due and payable on or after Closing with respect to the transaction contemplated
hereby, such taxes shall be the sole responsibility of Seller, and Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless for, from and against any such taxes, which obligations of Seller expressly shall survive Closing. Utilities shall be
canceled by Seller and reestablished in Purchaser’s name on the Closing Date, if possible; otherwise utilities shall be prorated at Closing. Any amounts unpaid under the Contracts which Purchaser elects to assume at Closing shall be prorated
between Seller and Purchaser at Closing. 
 (a) If the Closing shall occur before rents and all other amounts payable by the tenants under
the Leases and the Tower Leases and Billboard Leases, if any, and all other income from the Property have actually been paid for the month in which the Closing occurs, the apportionment of such rents and other amounts and other income at Closing
shall be upon the basis of such rents, other amounts and other income actually received by Seller as of Closing, with Purchaser receiving the portion of all such rentals and other amounts attributable to the period from and after Closing, with the
parties agreeing to true-up such proration, to the extent necessary to cause an accurate proration of such income, within ten (10) business days following Closing. For a period of thirty (30) days
following Closing, if any rents which are delinquent as of Closing are actually received by Purchaser, in good funds, all such amounts shall first be applied to post-closing rents and other amounts due to
Purchaser for the period from and after Closing, and the balance shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller within thirty (30) days following Purchaser’s receipt thereof, to the extent, and only to the extent of any rental delinquencies owed by
any such tenant to Seller for the period prior to Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.3(a), all rentals that are received by Purchaser more than thirty (30) days following Closing shall
be retained by Purchaser, and Seller shall have no rights with respect thereto. If, subsequent to the Closing, any rents or other income are actually received by Seller, Seller shall immediately remit the same, or Purchaser’s prorata share
thereof calculated as aforesaid, to Purchaser. Seller agrees that, after the Closing, it shall not file any eviction action in an effort to collect any outstanding rents that remain owing to Seller after the Closing. 

(b) If the Closing shall occur before the tax rate or the assessed valuation of the Property is fixed for the then current year, the
apportionment of taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year, including all matters appearing on the tax bill for such year, whether ad valorem or non-ad valorem, applied to the latest
assessed valuation. The proration shall allow for any available discount. Subsequent to the Closing, when the tax rate and the assessed valuation of the Property are fixed for the year in which the Closing occurs, the parties agree to adjust the
proration of taxes and, if necessary, to refund or repay such sums as shall be necessary to effect such adjustment, which obligation expressly shall survive Closing. 

(c) Seller shall pay all assessments, contributions, fees and related charges required to be paid upon transfer of the Property pursuant to any
declaration or restriction affecting the Property. 
 (d) In the event any prorations made at Closing pursuant to this Section 6.3 are
determined after Closing to be incorrect, the parties agree to promptly correct such error. 
 The terms and provisions of this
Section 6.3 shall expressly survive Closing.

Closing Date, (a) one-half of any escrow fees and other customary charges of the Escrow Agent, (b) one half of all recording costs relating to the Deed, (c) all title insurance costs relating to

 8. 

DEFAULT 
 8.1 Breach by
Seller. Subject to Section 8.3 below, in the event that Seller breaches any of its covenants, representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement, including failure by Seller to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except
Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser shall be entitled to either (i) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s
obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event specific performance for any reason is not available, then Purchaser shall be entitled to recover damages from Seller as described in Section 8.1(ii) below, or
(ii) terminate this Agreement, receive a refund of the Earnest Money, and pursue an action against Seller to recover any and all actual damages incurred directly or indirectly by Purchaser and/or any affiliates of Purchaser in connection with
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, excluding consequential damages, punitive damages and lost profits, and in any event not to exceed $200,000.00.

or warranties set forth in this Agreement, including failure by Purchaser to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Seller’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the
provisions hereof, Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may terminate this Agreement and thereupon shall be entitled to receive the Earnest Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty). Seller and Purchaser have made this provision for

(i) no such notice and cure shall be provided with respect to a party’s default in failing to timely close, or with respect to any party’s anticipatory breach of this Agreement, and (ii) in no event shall any such notice and cure
period result in an extension of the Closing Date.

of, or shall provide Purchaser access to, the books and records with respect to the ownership, management, maintenance and operation of the Property which are in Seller’s possession or under Seller’s control and shall furnish Purchaser, at
Purchaser’s expense, with such additional non-proprietary information concerning the same as Purchaser shall reasonably request and which is in the possession or control of Seller, or any of its
affiliates or accountants, to assist Purchaser or its assignee, to file its or their Form 8-K, if, as and when such filing may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”). At Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, Seller shall allow Purchaser’s auditor (BDO USA, LLP or any successor auditor selected by Purchaser) to conduct an audit of the income statements of the Property for the
calendar year prior to Closing (or to the date of Closing) , and shall cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Purchaser’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, Seller agrees to provide to Purchaser’s auditor a letter of
representation substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “H” (the “Representation Letter”), and, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the Property, including income and
balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Purchaser or its auditor may audit Seller’s operating statements of the Property, at Purchaser’s expense, and Seller
shall provide such documentation as Purchaser or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, (ii) Seller shall furnish to Purchaser such financial and other information as may be reasonably required by


  
 20 













 
Purchaser to make any required filings with the SEC or other governmental authority; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations of Seller shall be limited to providing such information or
documentation as may be in the possession of, or reasonably obtainable by, Seller, or its and accountants, at no cost to Seller, and in the format that Seller (or its affiliates or accountants) have maintained such information, and
(iii) Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Representation Letter is not intended to expand, extend, supplement or increase the representations and warranties made by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to the terms and provisions of
this Agreement or to expose Seller to any risk of liability to third parties. 
 The provisions of this
Section 9.19 shall survive Closing for a period of seventy-five (75) days. 
 9.20 INTENTIONALLY DELETED 

9.21 Environmental. In the event that Purchaser determines, prior to Closing, that there are conditions on, at or relating to the
Property which are in non-compliance with Environmental Requirements or the possibility that Hazardous Materials may exist on or under the Property that will require remediation under any applicable federal or
state laws, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as such matters first occur following the Approval Period and are not caused by the actions or omissions of Purchaser or its agents, consultants, contractors or
others on behalf of Purchaser, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement on or before the Closing Date upon written notice to Seller, in which event, the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser, without the consent or joinder of Seller
being required and notwithstanding any instructions to the contrary which might be provided by Seller, and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for the Surviving Obligations. 

9.22 INTENTIONALLY DELETED 
 9.23
Speculative Builder Tax. Seller agrees that at Closing Seller shall fund a cash escrow with the Escrow Agent for the benefit of Purchaser in an amount equal to 110% of the estimated speculative builder tax imposed by the City of Phoenix,
Arizona, on the construction and sale of the Property (the “Builder Tax”). In order to establish the projected Builder Tax, Seller agrees to provide Purchaser, at Purchaser’s request and for Purchaser’s review and approval, not
later than five (5) business days prior to Closing, with Seller’s estimate of the Builder Tax, together with appropriate back-up for Seller’s calculation of same. The Escrow Agent shall hold
110% of the projected Builder Tax amount agreed to by Purchaser in escrow from and after Closing until such time as Seller delivers to Purchaser and Escrow Agent evidence that the actual Builder Tax is paid by Seller, including, without limitation,
a tax clearance letter confirming that the Builder Tax has been paid in full, at which time the escrowed funds shall be released to Seller. The terms of the foregoing escrow shall be set forth in an escrow agreement, the form of which shall be
reasonably acceptable to Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent, and which escrow agreement shall be executed and delivered by Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent at Closing. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless for, from and
against all claims for the Builder Tax which may be asserted against Purchaser, which obligation of indemnification shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
