 ARTICLE 9 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 9.1 Expenses. Except as specifically provided
herein, each party shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of the terms of this Agreement. 

9.2 Transfer Taxes and Similar Charges. Any recordation, transfer and documentary taxes and fees, and any excise, sales or use
taxes, incurred by either Buyer or Seller in transferring the Membership Interests in accordance with this Agreement, shall be borne by Buyer. 
 9.3 Tax Covenants. 
 (a) Contributor and the Operating Partnership shall
provide each other with such cooperation and information relating to the Company or the Property as the parties reasonably may request in (i) filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for tax refund, (ii) determining any liability
for taxes or a right to a tax refund, (iii) conducting or defending any proceeding in respect of taxes, or (iv) performing tax diligence, including with respect to the impact of this transaction on the REIT’s tax status as a REIT.
Such reasonable cooperation shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Operating Partnership shall promptly notify Contributor
upon receipt by the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates of notice of (i) any pending or threatened tax audits or assessments with respect to the income properties or operations of the Company or with respect to the Property and
(ii) any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign tax audits or assessments of the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates, in each case, which may affect the liabilities for taxes of Contributor with respect to any tax
period ending before or as a result of the Closing. Contributor shall promptly notify the Operating Partnership in writing upon receipt by Contributor or any of its affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign
tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of any of the Company or with respect to the Property. Each of the Operating Partnership and Contributor may participate at its own expense in the prosecution of any claim or
audit with respect to taxes attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided, that Contributor shall have the right to control the conduct of any such audit or proceeding or portion thereof for which Contributor has
acknowledged liability (except as a partner of the Operating Partnership) for the payment of any additional tax liability, and the Operating Partnership shall have the right to control any other audits and proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither the Operating Partnership nor Contributor may settle or otherwise resolve any such claim, suit or proceeding which could have an adverse tax effect on the other party or its affiliates (other than on Contributor or any of its affiliates as a
partner of the Operating Partnership) without the consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Contributor and the Operating Partnership shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers with respect to the Company
and the Property, and all material records and other documents relating thereto, until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any party, any extensions thereof) of the taxable years to which such Tax Returns and
other documents relate and until the final determination of any tax in respect of such years. 

  
 17 









 (b) The Operating Partnership shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be
filed all Tax Returns of the Company that are due after the Closing Date. To the extent such returns relate to a period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, such Tax Returns (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amended Tax Returns) shall
be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable law. 
 (c) For purposes of
allocating items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to the Property and the Membership Interests in the manner required by Section 704(c) of the Code, the Operating Partnership shall employ, and shall cause any entity controlled
by the Operating Partnership which holds title to the Property or the Membership Interests to employ, the “traditional method” (without curative allocations) as set forth in Treasury Regulations section 1.704-3(b)(1). 

9.4 Benefit and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns. 
 9.5 Amendments. No amendment, consent, or waiver of compliance with any provision
or condition hereof, shall be effective unless evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any amendment, consent or waiver is sought. 

9.6 Headings. The headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience only and will not control or affect the meaning or
construction of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
