Effective Date (the Estoppel Period), obtain estoppel certificates from those Tenants, who, in the aggregate, as of the Effective Date, occupy or lease at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the total square footage of the Improvements.
Such certificates shall be substantially in a form mutually agreed upon within two (2) business days of the Effective Date or, if Buyer and Seller have not agreed upon a form



- 11 -



---

within such two (2) business day period, then in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto. A copy of each estoppel
certificate received by Seller from a Tenant shall be delivered by Seller to Buyer promptly after Seller receives such certificate from the Tenant. In the event that Seller has not delivered the requisite number of estoppel certificates within the
time period provided herein, then, either Seller or Buyer may, by written notice to the other party, extend the Estoppel Period for an additional ten (10) days to satisfy such condition.



(b) In the event that Buyer has not received the required estoppel certificates within the Estoppel Period, (as the same may
have been extended pursuant to Section 3.7(a) hereof), then Buyer may, by giving Seller and Escrow Agent written notice on or before the expiration of the Estoppel Period, terminate its obligations hereunder without further liability except as
described in Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 9.6 and 10.11, and Escrow Agent shall promptly thereafter return the Deposit to Buyer. If, before the end of the Estoppel Period, Buyer fails to give Seller such written notice, then Buyer shall be deemed to have
elected to waive its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.7(b). After the expiration of the Estoppel Period, provided Buyer has not terminated this Agreement, Seller shall continue to use reasonable efforts to obtain and
deliver to Buyer estoppel certificates from the Tenants of the Property whose Leases will continue after the Closing to the extent Seller has not previously delivered to Buyer estoppel certificates from such Tenants; provided, however, in no event
shall Buyer have any right to terminate its obligations hereunder after the end of the Estoppel Period as a result of any estoppel certificates received or not received by Buyer after the end of the Estoppel Period.



Section 3.8 SNDAs. Upon Buyers request, Seller will use
reasonable efforts to obtain from each Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in such form as the lender providing financing to Buyer may request (the SNDAs). Buyer acknowledges that Seller shall have
exercised reasonable efforts by delivering the form of SNDA to the Tenants. Obtaining any such SNDAs shall not, however, be a condition to the Closing, nor shall Seller incur any liability in connection with failing to obtain any such
SNDAs. Seller will deliver an original of each SNDA to Buyer promptly following Sellers receipt of the same.



ARTICLE 4 - TITLE AND SURVEY



Section 4.1 Title to Real Property. Seller shall make available to Buyer not later than five (5) business days after the Effective Date (a) a commitment
to issue an owners policy of title insurance with respect to the Property issued by the Title Company (the Title Commitment), (b) copies of all recorded documents referred to on Schedule B of the Title Commitment as exceptions to
coverage (the Title Documents), and (c) the Survey.



Section 4.2 Certain Exceptions to Title. Buyer shall have the right to object in writing to any title matters that are not Permitted Exceptions and that materially adversely affect Buyers title to the Real Property which are disclosed
in the Title Commitment or Survey (herein collectively called Liens) within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Survey. Unless Buyer shall timely object to the Liens, all such Liens and any other encumbrances
which do not materially adversely affect Buyers title to the Real Property which are set forth in the Title Commitment and any such supplemental reports or updates shall be deemed to constitute additional Permitted Exceptions. Any exceptions
which are timely objected



- 12 -



---

to by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the Title Objections. Seller may elect (but shall not be
obligated) to remove or cause to be removed, or insured over, at its expense, any Title Objections, and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed ninety (90) days) for the purpose of such removal, which removal will
be deemed effected by the issuance of title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title Objections. Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of Buyers notice of Title Objections whether
Seller elects to remove the same. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Title Objection exists which the Title Company will not remove or endorse over but which First American Title Insurance Company has
agreed to remove or endorse over, Seller, by written notice thereof to Buyer and the Title Company, may elect to use First American Title Insurance Company as the Title Company and Escrow Agent, in which case, the original Escrow Agent shall, within
three (3) business days of such notice, transfer any funds and/or documents held by it with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement to First American Title Insurance Company, who will supercede and replace Stewart Title Guaranty
Company as the Title Company and New Enterprise Title Group, Inc. as Escrow Agent. If Seller is unable to remove or endorse over any Title Objections prior to the Closing, or if Seller elects not to remove one or more Title Objections, Buyer may
elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefore, to either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer and,
thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement as set forth in Sections 3.4, 5.5, 3.6, 9.6 and 10.11, or (b) waive such Title
Objections, in which event such Title Objections shall be deemed additional Permitted Exceptions and the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price. If before the end of the Due
Diligence Period, Buyer fails to give Seller and Escrow Agent such written notice, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive such Title Objections and its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.2. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Seller shall be obligated at Closing to cause the release of the liens of any financing which is secured by the Property and to release or, at Sellers option, insure over any other monetary liens affecting the Property.



Section 4.3 Title Insurance. At Closing, the Title Company shall issue to
Buyer or be irrevocably committed to issue to Buyer an extended coverage ALTA owners form title policy (the Title Policy), in the amount of the Purchase Price, insuring that fee simple title to the Real Property is vested in Buyer
subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide such endorsements (or amendments) to the Title Policy as Buyer may reasonably require, provided that (a) such endorsements (or amendments)
shall be at no cost to, and shall impose no additional liability on, Seller, (b) Buyers obligations under this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon Buyers ability to obtain such endorsements and, if Buyer is unable to obtain such
endorsements, Buyer shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement without reduction of or set off against the Purchase Price, and (c) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of Buyers
request.

connection with the transfer contemplated hereby, to the contrary (including, without limitation, any language providing for survival of certain provisions hereof or thereof), Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) prior to Closing,
Buyers sole recourse in the event of a breach by Seller shall be as set forth in Section 5.1 hereof, and (b) Seller shall, upon consummation of Closing, be deemed to have satisfied and fulfilled all of Sellers covenants, indemnities, and
obligations contained in this Agreement and the documents delivered pursuant hereto, and Seller shall have no further liability to Buyer or otherwise with respect to this Agreement, the transfers contemplated hereby, or any documents delivered
pursuant hereto, except to the extent of any obligation or liability Seller may have under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 as to which Sellers liability, if any, shall be limited as provided in Section 6.3, and under Sections 9.6 and 10.11.



ARTICLE 8 - LEASES; MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY



From the date hereof until the Closing, and except as otherwise consented to
or approved by Buyer, Seller covenants and agrees with Buyer as follows:



Section 8.1 New Leases; Lease Modifications.



8.1.1 Except as set forth in Section 8.1.2 with respect to the building commonly known as Building No. 9, after the Effective Date, Seller shall not, without Buyers prior written consent in each instance, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be given or denied in good faith, with the reasons for such denial specified in reasonable detail, within three (3) business days after receipt by Buyer of the information referred to in the next
sentence, enter into a New Lease; modify or amend any Pre-Effective Date Lease or any New Lease entered into after the Effective Date (except pursuant to the exercise by a Tenant of a renewal, extension or expansion option or other right contained
in such Tenants lease); consent to any assignment or sublease in connection with any Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease; or remove any tenant under any Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease, whether by summary proceedings or otherwise,
except by reason of a default of the tenant under the subject Pre-Effective Lease or New Lease. Seller shall furnish Buyer with a written notice of the proposed action which shall contain information regarding the proposed action that Seller
believes is reasonably necessary to enable Buyer to make informed decisions with respect to the advisability of the proposed action. If Buyer fails to object in writing to any such proposed action within three (3) business days after receipt of the
aforementioned information, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the proposed action. If any Lease requires that the landlords consent be given under the applicable circumstances (or not be unreasonably withheld), then Buyer shall be deemed
ipso facto to have approved such action. Any notice from Buyer rejecting the proposed action shall include a description of the reasons for Buyers rejection.

8.1.2 With respect to the building commonly known as Building No. 9, Seller shall have the right to enter
into any New Lease or amend any Pre-Effective Date Lease it deems advisable without Buyers prior consent so long as the terms and conditions of such New Lease or amendment to the Pre-Effective Date Lease fall within the leasing parameters set
forth on Exhibit K hereto (the Leasing Parameters); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may enter into a New Lease or amend any Pre-Effective Date Lease with terms and conditions that exceed the Leasing
Parameters without Buyers consent so long as Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller will be responsible for any amounts in excess of the Leasing Parameters. In such event; Buyer shall be responsible for any amounts up to the amounts
authorized pursuant to the Leasing Parameters, which shall be considered Reimbursable Leasing Expenses; however, Seller shall be responsible for any amounts in excess of the Leasing Parameters, which such excess shall not be considered Reimbursable
Leasing Expenses.



Section 8.2 Lease Expenses. At Closing,
Buyer shall reimburse Seller for any and all Reimbursable Lease Expenses to the extent that the same have been paid by Seller prior to Closing. In addition, at Closing, Buyer shall assume Sellers obligations to pay, when due (whether on a
stated due date or by acceleration) any Reimbursable Lease Expenses unpaid as of the Closing, and Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless froze and against any and all claims for such Reimbursable Lease Expenses which remain unpaid
for any reason at the time of Closing, which obligations of Buyer shall survive the Closing and shall not be merged therein. Each party shall make available to the other all records, bills, vouchers and other data in such partys control
verifying Reimbursable Lease Expenses and the payment thereof.



Section 8.3 Lease Enforcement. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1 above, prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except to the extent that Sellers failure to act shall constitute a waiver
of such rights or remedies), to enforce the rights and remedies of the landlord under any Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease, by summary proceedings or otherwise (including, without limitation, the right to remove any tenant), and to apply all or
any portion of any Tenant Deposits then held by Seller toward any loss or damage incurred by Seller by reason of any defaults by Tenants, and the exercise of any such rights or remedies shall not affect the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement
in any manner or entitle Buyer to a reduction in, or credit or allowance against, the Purchase Price or give rise to any other claim on the part of Buyer; provided, however, that Seller shall not enforce an order granting Seller the right to evict a
tenant without the prior consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed



Section 8.4 Certain Interim Operating Covenants. Seller covenants to Buyer that Seller will: from the Effective Date until Closing or earlier termination
of this Agreement, continue to operate, manage and maintain the Improvements in the ordinary course of Sellers business and substantially in accordance with Sellers present practice, subject to ordinary wear and tear and further subject
to Section 10.2; from the Effective Date until Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, maintain fire and extended coverage insurance on the Property which is at least equivalent in all material respects to the insurance policies covering
the Development Land, the

until Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, not enter into any new contract for the provision of goods or services to or with respect to such the Property other than in the ordinary course of business, or renew, extend, modify or replace
any of the Contracts unless such contract is terminable as of the Closing Date without payment of any fees or penalty or unless Buyer consents thereto in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In
addition, Seller shall terminate any leasing and/or management agreement with the Property Manager with respect to the Property effective as of the Closing Date and pay any and all costs and expenses of termination thereof.

Section 9.5 Prorations and Closing Costs.



9.5.1 (1) Seller and Buyer agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the
Proration Time), the following (collectively, the Proration Items): real estate and personal property taxes and assessments (subject to the terms of Section 9.5.1(b) below), utility bills (except as hereinafter provided),
collected Rents (subject to the terms of Section 9.5.1(b) below) and Operating Expenses (subject to the terms of Section 9.5.1(c) below) payable by the owner of the Property. Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the
Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Proration Time, and Buyer will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Proration Time. Such preliminary estimated Closing prorations shall

(if the



- 27 -



---

preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Buyer (if the preliminary prorations result in a
net credit to Buyer) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Buyer in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Proration Time, the prorations will be made at
Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received (not to exceed 120 days after closing), re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made
between Seller and Buyer. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums, and Sellers insurance policies will not be assigned to Buyer. Final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the Proration
Time, in which event no proration will be made at Closing with respect to utility bills. Seller will be entitled to all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Buyer will be obligated to, make its own arrangements for deposits
with the utility providers. The provisions of this Section 9.5.1(a) will survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months.



(a) Buyer will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Proration Time) of all Rent previously paid to or collected by
Seller and attributable to any period following the Proration Time. Rents are Delinquent when they were due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Closing Date Delinquent Rents will not be
prorated. All sums collected by Buyer from and after Closing from each Tenant will be applied first to current amounts owed by such Tenant to Buyer and then to Delinquent Rent owed by such Tenant to Seller. Any sums due Seller will be promptly
remitted to Seller. Buyer shall not have an exclusive right to collect any sums due Seller from Tenants under the Leases and Seller hereby retains the right to pursue any Tenant under the Leases for any sums due Seller for periods attributable to
Sellers ownership of the Property; provided, however, Seller (i) shall be required to notify Buyer in writing of Sellers intention to commence or pursue any legal proceedings; (ii) shall only be permitted to commence or pursue legal
proceedings after the date which is three (3) months after Closing, and (iii) shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against any Tenant seeking eviction of such Tenant or the termination of the underlying Lease. The
provisions of this Section 9.51(b) will survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months.



(b) Seller shall prepare a reconciliation as of the Closing Date of the amounts of all billings and charges for operating expenses and tax escalations
(collectively, Operating Expenses). If more amounts have been expended for Operating Expenses than have been collected from Tenants for Operating Expenses, Buyer shall pay such difference to Seller at Closing as an addition to the
Purchase Price. If more amounts have been collected from Tenants for Operating Expenses than have been expended for Operating Expenses, Seller will pay to Buyer at Closing, as a credit against the Purchase Price, such excess collected amount. Buyer
and Seller agree that such proration of Operating Expenses at Closing will fully relieve Seller from any responsibility to Tenants and Buyer for such matters. In this regard, Buyer will be solely responsible, from and after Closing, for (i)
collecting from Tenants the amount of any outstanding Operating Expenses for periods before and after the Closing and (ii) where appropriate, reimbursing Tenants for amounts attributable to Operating Expenses, as may be necessary based on annual
reconciliations for Operating Expenses.



(c) All ad valorem
real estate and personal property taxes with respect to the Property (to the extent not prorated in (c) above) shall be prorated as of the Proration Time on a cash basis for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, regardless of the year for
which such taxes are assessed.



- 28 -



---

(d) Buyer shall receive a credit against Purchase Price at Closing for all Tenant Deposits then
outstanding under the Leases and for all Rent paid in advance (to the extent not prorated as set forth in (b) above).



(e) Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing for all payments due or owing under any Contracts for periods prior to the Closing
Date, which amounts shall be prorated as of the Proration Time. If Seller has paid any amounts under any Contracts for periods after the Proration Time, Buyer shall pay such amounts to Seller at Closing in addition to the Purchase Price.



(f) Seller shall receive a credit for any and all Reimbursable Lease
Expenses as set forth in Section 8.2 of this Agreement and for any and all Reimbursable Capital Expenses, to the extent that the same have been paid by Seller prior to Closing. Each party shall make available to the other all records, bills,
vouchers and other data in such partys control verifying Reimbursable Capital Expenses and the payment thereof.



9.5.2 Seller shall pay (a) one-half of any and all state, county or local transfer or deed recordation taxes, (b) one-half of the Escrow Agents
escrow fee, and (c) any additional costs and charges customarily charged to sellers in accordance with common escrow practices in the county in which the Property is located, other than those costs and charges specifically required to be paid by
Buyer hereunder Buyer shall pay (a) one-half of any and all state, county or local transfer or deed recordation taxes, (b) one-half of the Escrow Agents escrow fee, (c) all of the costs associated with the issuance of the Title Commitment and
Title Policy, including the costs of any endorsements Buyer may require in accordance with Section 4.3, (d) the recording fees required in connection with any financing associated with the transfer of the Property to Buyer, and (e) any, additional
costs and charges customarily charged to buyers in accordance with common escrow practices in the county in which the Property is located, other than those costs and charges specifically required to be paid by Seller hereunder. In addition to the
foregoing, Buyer shall be responsible for any costs of updating the Survey of the Property or otherwise conforming the Survey to the requirements for issuance of the Title Policy or for any new survey that may be required for issuance of the Title
Policy.



Section 9.6 Broker. Buyer hereby represents and
warrants to Seller that it did not employ or use any broker or finder to arrange or bring about this transaction, and that there are no claims or rights for brokerage commissions or finders fees in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, other than the commission (Brokers Commission) required to be paid by Seller to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Broker. Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that Seller has
not employed any broker with respect to this transaction, other than Broker, and Seller shall only pay the Brokers Commission. If any person brings a claim for a commission or finders fee based upon any contact, dealings, or
communication with Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than Broker, then Buyer shall defend Seller from such claim, and shall indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from any and all costs, damages,
claims, liabilities, or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) incurred by Seller



- 29 -



---

with respect to the claim. If any person brings a claim for a commission or finders fee based upon any contact,
dealings, or communication with Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then Seller shall defend Buyer from such claim, and shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any and all costs, damages, claims,
liabilities, or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) incurred by Buyer with respect to the claim. The provisions of this Section 9.6 shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not
consummated, any termination of this Agreement and shall not be subject to the twelve month limitation set forth in Section 6.3.



Section 9.7 Expenses. Except as provided in Sections 9.5 and 9.6, each party hereto shall pay its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, in the case of Buyer, all third-party engineering and environmental review costs and all other Due Diligence costs.



ARTICLE 10 - MISCELLANEOUS



Section 10.1 Amendment and Modification. Subject to applicable law, this
Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by a written agreement signed by Buyer and Seller.



Section 10.2 Risk of Loss and Insurance Proceeds.



10.2.1 Minor Loss. Buyer shall be bound to purchase the Property for the full Purchase Price as required by the terms hereof, without regard to the
occurrence or effect of any damage to the Property or destruction of any improvements thereon or condemnation of any portion of the Property, provided that: (a) the cost to repair any such damage or destruction, or the diminution in the value of the
remaining Property as a result of a partial condemnation, equals $4,650,000 or less, and (b) upon the Closing, there shall be a credit against the Purchase Price due hereunder equal to the amount of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards
collected by Seller as a result of any such damage or destruction or condemnation, plus the amount of any insurance deductible, less any sums expended by Seller toward the restoration or repair of the Property or in collecting such insurance
proceeds or condemnation awards. If the proceeds or awards have not been collected as of the Closing, then such proceeds or awards shall be assigned to Buyer, except to the extent needed to reimburse Seller for sums expended prior to the Closing to
repair or restore the Property or to collect any such proceeds or awards.



10.2.2 Major Loss. If the amount of the damage or destruction or condemnation as specified above exceeds $4,650,000, then Buyer may at its option, to be exercised by written notice to Seller within ten (10) business
days of Sellers notice of the occurrence of the damage or destruction or the commencement of condemnation proceedings, terminate this Agreement. Buyers failure to elect to terminate this Agreement within said ten business day period
shall be deemed an election by Buyer to consummate this purchase and sale transaction. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement within such ten business day period, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and neither party shall have any further
rights or obligations hereunder except as provided in Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 9.6 and 10.11. If Buyer elects or is deemed to have elected to proceed with the purchase, then upon the Closing, there shall be a credit against the Purchase Price due

Agreement, including any present or future amendment thereof or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties or any of them with respect to this Agreement (as hereafter amended) or any other instrument,

Section 10.13 with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties to the waiver of any right they might otherwise have to trial by jury.



Section 10.14 Limited Liability. Neither the members, managers, employees or agents of Seller, nor the shareholders, officers, directors, employees or
agents of any of them shad be liable under this Agreement and all parties hereto shall look solely to the assets of Seller for the payment of any claim or the performance of any obligation by Seller.



Section 10.15 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.



Section 10.16 No Waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of
this Agreement shall be deemed, or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver, nor shall a waiver in any instance constitute a waiver in any subsequent instance. No
waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.
