 ARTICLE VII 

CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS 

Section 7.01 General Prorations. The following will be apportioned at the Closing: 

(a) Rents, if any, as and when collected (the term “rents” as used in this Contract includes base rent, percentage
rent, common area maintenance, parking, tax, insurance and other payments due and payable under any Lease for all or any portion of the Improvements, together with all sales and other taxes thereon, and the term “Additional Rent” means
rent that constitutes reimbursement (including monthly estimated payments) for operating expenses and other pass-throughs) and all other income generated by all or any portion of the Property, including parking revenue. There will be no proration of
rents accrued but not collected as of the Closing Date. 

  
 13 








 (b) Taxes and other assessments (including personal property taxes on the
Personal Property) applicable to the Property. Special assessments certified by any municipal utility district or other taxing authority prior to the Closing Date must be paid in their entirety by Seller at or before the Closing, except to the
extent such assessments are payable in installments or are attributable to a post-Closing period, in which event they shall be prorated between the parties. If the tax rate or assessed valuation or both have not yet been fixed for any period
including or prior to the Closing Date, the proration shall be based on a good faith estimate as to the amount of such taxes for the current year after consideration of the tax rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed; provided that the parties
hereto agree that if the actual taxes for the current year differ from the amount so apportioned at the Closing, and if such difference can be ascertained during the Survival Period, the parties hereto will make all necessary adjustments by
appropriate payments between themselves following the Closing, and this provision shall survive delivery of the Deed. 
 (c)
Payments under any Service Contracts or other agreements assumed by Purchaser. 
 (d) Gas, electricity and other utility
charges, if any, to be apportioned on the basis of the last meter reading. 
 In making such apportionments, Purchaser will receive credit for all rents and
other income paid with respect to the day of the Closing, and Purchaser will be charged for taxes and other expenses incurred with respect to the day of the Closing. All apportionments are to be subject to post-closing adjustments as necessary to
reflect later relevant information not available at the Closing and to correct any errors made at the Closing with respect to such apportionments, as more specifically described below in Section 7.05; provided, however, that such apportionments
shall be deemed final and not subject to further post-closing adjustments if no such adjustments have been requested in writing after a period of sixty (60) days from such time as all necessary information is available to make a complete and
accurate determination of such apportionments. All apportionments (regardless of whether all relevant information has been received or errors have been made) are final and not subject to further post-closing adjustment one (1) year following
the Closing Date. 
 Section 7.02 Specific Prorations. Anything hereinabove contained to the contrary notwithstanding:

 (a) Seller shall retain and be entitled to receive any tax refunds issued after Closing to the extent applicable to the
period prior to the Closing, but not otherwise. Seller may not initiate nor demand Purchaser initiate or continue any litigation to collect such tax refunds. There will be no proration of any insurance related expenses, it being agreed that
Purchaser will obtain its own insurance coverage as of the Closing Date. 

  
 14 








 (b) As to gas, electricity and other utility charges, Seller may on written
notice to Purchaser on or before the Closing Date elect to pay one or more of said items accrued to the date hereinabove fixed for apportionment directly to the person or entity entitled thereunto and to the extent Seller so elects, such item shall
not be apportioned hereunder, and Seller’s obligation to pay such item directly in such case shall survive the delivery of the Deed; provided, however, that Seller will not take any action or fail to take any action which would result in the
cessation or termination of utility service to the Property. 
 (c) Seller and Purchaser agree that all rents received after
the Closing from any tenant after reasonable costs of collection, if any, incurred by Purchaser shall be applied first to rent for the month in which the Closing occurs, and then rent in the inverse order of its maturity, and Purchaser will deliver
to Seller any such delinquent rentals owed Seller and received following the Closing. For a period of six (6) months following the Closing, Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to collect for Seller any rental payments past due as of the
Closing or due subsequent to Closing for a period prior to Closing, from tenants who were tenants as of the Closing; provided, however, Purchaser shall not be required to declare a lease default or institute any legal action in any court against any
tenant. Seller will deliver to Purchaser, within five (5) business days following receipt, any rents received by Seller after the Closing and attributable to the period from and after the Closing. From and after the sixth (6th) month
following the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right to pursue reasonable collection remedies against any tenant owing delinquent rentals owed Seller, provided that (i) Seller shall notify Purchaser of its intent to institute any collection
remedy or proceeding not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the institution thereof, and (ii) Seller shall in no event institute any proceeding to evict or dispossess a tenant from the Property. Purchaser may, by written notice to Seller
within ten (10) days of receipt of Seller’s notice of intent to institute collection remedies or proceedings, restrict Seller from collecting such delinquent rentals, but only if Purchaser first pays Seller such delinquent rentals in
exchange for Seller’s assignment to Purchaser of all of Seller’s rights and causes of action with respect thereto. 

(d) At the Closing, Seller shall credit to the account of Purchaser against the Purchase Price (i) any security deposit
made under any leases executed with respect to the Property or otherwise actually collected by Seller, and not applied by Seller or returned to the Tenant in accordance with the terms of the Lease, together with all interest, if any, which must be
paid thereon to any tenant thereunder; and (ii) all prepaid rents and other charges paid in advance by any tenants of the Property and attributable to the period after the Closing; and in each case, the Lease Assignment shall provide for
Purchaser’s assumption of the obligation to return any such sums (and, if applicable, interest thereon) to the extent same are so credited, but not otherwise. If any security deposits are in the form of a letter of credit, Seller must deliver
to Purchaser at Closing the original letter of credit, together with all assignment/transfer documentation (fully executed and bank authenticated, as applicable) and assignment/transfer fees required by the issuing entity to cause same to be
reissued to Purchaser immediately following the Closing (subject to consent rights, if any, of the issuers of such letters of credit). 

  
 15 








 (e) Leasing commissions and tenant improvement expenses relating to lease
agreements pertaining to the Property that are the obligation of the landlord to pay (other than those with respect to the TransUnion Lease and the Walgreens Lease) shall be apportioned between the parties as follows: 

(i) All such expenses relating to leases executed before the Effective Date, and which are not contingent on renewal or
expansion of any such Lease after the Effective Date, shall be the sole obligation of Seller and shall be paid in full by Seller (regardless of whether any portion of such expenses may not otherwise become due until after the Closing Date), on or
before the Closing Date and, if Purchaser fails to receive reasonably acceptable evidence of such payment (together with the release of any lien applicable thereto), the unpaid portion shall be credited against the Purchase Price. 

(ii) All such expenses relating to Leases executed before the Effective Date, which are solely payable with respect to and
contingent upon renewal of any such Lease or expansion into additional space by the tenant under any such Lease after the Closing Date shall be the sole obligation of Purchaser; provided such expenses are disclosed in the Leases and commission
agreements delivered to Purchaser prior to the end of the Review Period. Any such expenses not so disclosed shall render Seller liable for any such expenses and, if Purchaser fails to receive reasonably acceptable evidence of payment (together with
the release of any lien applicable thereto) on or before the Closing, Purchaser will receive a credit therefor against the Purchase Price. 

(f) Any and all payments or rebates from Commonwealth Edison Company pursuant to (i) the Rider DE Contracts, or
(ii) the “Smart Ideas” program, shall remain the property of Seller, and if received by Buyer shall be promptly remitted to Seller. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that the Tenant under the Leases is responsible for paying, directly
to a utility or other third party, any of the items which are to be prorated, there shall be no proration for such items. 

Section 7.03 Transaction Costs. Seller shall be responsible for (a) all attorneys fees and expenses, if any, of
counsel to Seller; (b) all documentary stamp, transfer, surtax and excise taxes payable upon the transfer of the Property and/or recordation of the Deed; (c) the cost of the Owner’s Policy (excluding extended coverage and endorsement
costs), including, but not limited to, title examinations; (d) one-half (1/2) of any escrow and other charges of the Title Company; and (e) the cost of the current ALTA as-built survey and any changes requested by Purchaser to the
survey. Purchaser shall be responsible for (a) all attorneys’ fees and expenses, if any, of counsel to Purchaser; (b) one-half (1/2) of any escrow and other charges of the Title Company; and (c) the cost of any extended
coverage and other endorsements requested by the Purchaser. 

  
 16 








 Section 7.04 Brokerage Commissions. Purchaser represents to Seller that
Purchaser has not engaged the services of any broker, finder or other agent in regard to this Contract. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless against all liability, loss, cost, damage and expense (including, but not
limited to, attorneys’ fees and court costs, including any appeal that may be filed) which Seller shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any broker, finder, or other agent, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or
other compensation with respect hereto resulting from the acts of Purchaser. Seller represents to Purchaser that Seller has not engaged the services of any real estate broker, finder or other agent in regard to this Contract. Seller hereby agrees to
indemnify Purchaser and hold Purchaser harmless against all liability, loss, cost, damage and expense (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and court costs, including any appeal that may be filed) which Purchaser shall ever suffer or
incur because of any claim by any broker, finder, or other agent, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with respect hereto resulting from the acts of Seller. This provision shall survive Closing. 

Section 7.05 True-Up. No later than one (1) year following the Closing Date (except that the period shall be extended
solely for the true-up of Additional Rent under a Lease, to the extent such reconciliation with a tenant has not been finally resolved as of such date), Seller and Purchaser shall make a final adjustment (the “Final Closing Adjustment”) to
correct any errors made at Closing pursuant to this Article VII, to adjust any item that was not prorated at Closing but should have been prorated at Closing, and to true-up the Purchaser’s and the Seller’s respective shares of Additional
Rent based on the year-end Lease reconciliation that first occurs after Closing. If the net of all such adjustments favors Purchaser, Seller shall make a cash payment of such net amount to Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days after the
Final Closing Adjustment is completed. If the net of all such adjustments favors Seller, Purchaser shall make a cash payment of such net amount to Seller no later than thirty (30) days after the Final Closing Adjustment is completed. The
parties shall correct any manifest error in the prorations and adjustments made at Closing promptly after such error is discovered. The adjustment relating to Additional Rent shall be calculated as follows (on a Lease-by-Lease basis): After taking
into account (i) any payments of Additional Rent actually received by Seller or Purchaser for the fiscal year in which the Closing occurred (the “Fiscal Year”), (ii) any amounts paid or owed to Tenants by Purchaser after Closing
as a result of reconciliations of Additional Rent for the Fiscal Year, and (iii) the proration of Additional Rent that was made for the period including the Closing pursuant to Section 7.01(a), Seller shall owe a cash payment of Additional
Rent to Purchaser or Purchaser shall owe a cash payment of Additional Rent to Seller, as applicable, so that Seller’s share of Additional Rent (as a percentage of the total Additional Rent collected from the Tenant for the entire Fiscal Year),
corresponds to the underlying pass-through expenses actually incurred by Seller prior to Closing (as a percentage of the total pass-through expenses incurred by Seller and Purchaser for the entire Fiscal Year).

 Section 7.06 Survival. The terms of this Article shall survive the termination
of this Contract and the Closing and delivery of the Deed for a period of 14 months, and then shall terminate automatically. 
 ARTICLE
VIII 
 TERMINATION AND REMEDIES 

Section 8.01 Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails to close when required to do so hereunder, Seller shall be
entitled, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Contract and to receive the Earnest Money Deposit. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that delivery of the Earnest Money Deposit shall be deemed liquidated damages for
Purchaser’s breach of this Contract, it being further agreed that the actual damages to Seller in the event of such breach are impractical to ascertain and the Earnest Money Deposit is a reasonable estimate thereof. Seller has no right to
specifically enforce Purchaser’s obligations under this Contract nor to seek or otherwise collect any actual, out-of-pocket, lost profit, punitive, consequential, treble, or other damages from or against Purchaser, except for the indemnity
obligations of Purchaser expressly set forth in this Contract. In no event shall any officer, director, agent or employee of Purchaser or its partners be personally liable for any of Purchaser’s obligations under this Contract or the documents
to be delivered at the Closing. 
 Section 8.02 Seller’s Default. If, prior to Closing, Seller materially defaults
under this Contract, Purchaser shall be entitled, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, to either (a) terminate this Contract upon written notice to Seller and to request the Title Company to return the Earnest Money Deposit, together
with all accrued interest thereon, to Purchaser, or (b) pursue an action to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to convey the Property to Purchaser when obligated to do so under this Contract. Purchaser has no right, except
as provided in the next sentence, to seek damages against Seller for any breach or default of Seller hereunder, and Purchaser hereby waives any remedy at law or in equity other than as expressly set forth in this Section 8.02. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02: (x) if specific performance would not be an effective remedy as the result of Seller’s failure to convey the Property to Purchaser when obligated to do so under this Contract, or
(y) if any representation or warranty of Seller herein was false in any material respect on the Effective Date, or (z) if Seller had actual knowledge during the Review Period that a representation or warranty of Seller became false in any
material respect after the Effective Date but did not disclose such knowledge to Purchaser during the Review Period, then Purchaser may, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy and in lieu of those provided above, terminate this Contract,
receive the Earnest Money Deposit and collect from Seller Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket third party expenses in connection with this transaction, up to a maximum of $100,000.

(j) Seller is not, nor will it become, a person or entity with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business
under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons List) or under any statute, executive order (including the September 24,
2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action. 

Section 9.02 Purchaser’s Representations. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller, as of the date hereof
and as of the Closing Date, as follows: 
 (a) Purchaser is a limited liability company, duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of its organization, and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. This Contract constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms,

(b) Purchaser has the capacity and complete authority to enter into and perform this Contract, and no consent, approval or
other action by any person or 

  
 20 








 
entity (other than the person signing this Contract on behalf of Purchaser and any approval to be obtained by Purchaser during the Review Period) will be needed thereafter to authorize
Purchaser’s execution and performance of this Contract. 
 (c) Purchaser is not, nor will it become, a person or entity
with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons List) or

(d) Purchaser has not identified any prospective tenants, nor has Purchaser received any oral or written lease offers or
expressions of interest, with respect to suites 100, 700B or 1200 at the Property. 
 Section 9.03 Discovery. If either
Seller or Purchaser discovers, prior to or at the Closing, that any representation or warranty of the other party is false, misleading or inaccurate in any material respect, the discovering party may, at its option, terminate this Contract and the
parties hereto shall be relieved of all liabilities and obligations hereunder and (a) if Purchaser is the discovering party, Purchaser shall be entitled to (i) the immediate return of the Earnest Money Deposit, together with all accrued
interest thereon, and (ii) pursue Purchaser’s remedies, if any, under the last sentence of Section 8.02 of this Contract; and (b) if Seller is the discovering party, Seller shall be entitled to pursue its remedies under
Section 8.01 of this Contract. If the discovering party elects to proceed to Closing such party cannot later bring a claim against the other as to such discovered matter. Representations and warranties under this Article IX shall fully survive
the Closing and the delivery of the Deed, but to the extent that neither Seller nor Purchaser has made any claim as to the breach of any such representation or warranty during the Survival Period (defined below), such representations and warranties
will terminate and be of no further force and effect. For purposes of Section 9.05(a), Seller’s representations and warranties shall be deemed modified to reflect any information about which Purchaser had knowledge as of the end of the
Review Period. For purposes of the second sentence of this Section 9.03, Purchaser shall be deemed to have knowledge that any representation or warranty of Seller is false, misleading or inaccurate in any material respect to the extent that
information (other than information, if any, that Seller intentionally withholds from Purchaser during the Review Period and that is first discovered Purchaser after the Review Period but prior to Closing) inconsistent with such representation or
warranty is included in or revealed by this Contract or (prior to the expiration of the Review Period) any, studies, reports or other information applicable to the Property or any portion thereof and obtained by or made available to Purchaser or its
agents, including title policies, pro-formas or commitments, title exception documents, surveys, Leases, operating and financial statements, accounting reports, rent rolls, delinquency reports, estoppel certificates, environmental, engineering and
soils reports, site and architectural plans, Contracts, inspection or maintenance reports, and permits and approvals. 

  
 21 








 Section 9.04 Operating Covenants. Seller agrees to operate and maintain the
Property prior to the Closing in a manner consistent with its current operating procedures, and shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, do any of the following: 

(a) Enter into any contract (other than leases which are subject to clause (b) below) that will not be fully performed by
Seller on or before the Closing Date or that will not be susceptible of cancellation by Purchaser on or after the Closing Date upon thirty (30) days or less prior written notice, without cost or liability to Purchaser, or amend, modify or
supplement any existing contract or agreement in any material respect (other than leases, which are subject to clause (b) below, or the agreements referred to in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of Section 4.05, which Seller may amend or
modify without the Purchaser’s consent); provided, however, that this Section 9.04(a) shall not be applicable to contracts to which Seller remains a party after Closing in its capacity as the property manager. 

(b) Enter into any new lease or amend, modify, supplement or terminate any existing lease. 

(c) Fail to maintain its current insurance covering Seller’s interest in the Property or advise Purchaser promptly of the
occurrence of any fire or other casualty affecting the Property. 
 (d) Sell, assign or create any right, title or interest
whatsoever in or to the Property (including any so-called “back-up” contracts which are expressly prohibited) or create any voluntary lien, thereon from and after the date of the Title Commitment, other than liens or encumbrances noted in
the Title Commitment, without promptly discharging same or otherwise complying with the terms of Section 4.04. 
 (e)
Intentionally take any action which would have the effect of violating any of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Contract. 

Section 9.05 Conditions Precedent. Purchaser is not obligated to proceed with Closing unless all of the following
conditions precedent are satisfied (or waived in writing by Purchaser) and are otherwise true and correct as of the Closing Date: 

(a) All of Seller’s representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date as
if made on and as of the Closing Date. 
 (b) Seller has performed all of its covenants, agreements, and obligations under
this Contract in all material respects and is otherwise not in default under this Contract. 

  
 22 








 (c) Seller has delivered all Required Estoppels in compliance with
Section 6.02(e). 
 (d) Seller has delivered the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement, if any,
required by Section 6.02 (f). 
 (e) Title to the Real Property shall be in the condition required pursuant to
Section 5.01 and Section 5.02; and 
 (f) If all or any portion of the Improvements that are leased as of
the Effective Date are no longer leased as of the Closing, such portion of the Improvements must be in “broom clean” condition with all racking systems and other personal property and equipment designated by Purchaser removed on or before
the Closing, with all damage caused thereby repaired in a manner acceptable to Purchaser. 
 Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall
use reasonable efforts to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions precedent. If Seller is unable to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions precedent, and if Purchaser does not waive such conditions precedent, Purchaser or Seller may extend the
Closing Date to a date not later than thirty (30) days from the Target Closing Date, by written notice to Seller or Purchaser, as applicable. If Seller is unable to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions precedent by the Closing Date (as so
extended), Purchaser may terminate this Contract; provided, however, that if any condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to proceed with the Closing hereunder has not been satisfied as of the Closing Date (or such earlier date as is
provided herein) and such condition may be fully satisfied or cured by the payment of a liquidated amount, Seller may elect, by notice to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date, to cure such failed condition by causing such payment to be made at
Closing, in which event the parties shall proceed with Closing hereunder and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If the Closing occurs, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any conditions actually known by Purchaser to be
unsatisfied at the Closing. If Purchaser elects to terminate, the Earnest Money Deposit shall be immediately returned to Purchaser. 

Section 9.06 Post Closing Claim. If: (i) Purchaser makes a claim against Seller with regard to a representation or
warranty which expressly survives Closing, (ii) Purchaser makes such claim within the period from the Closing Date until the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”), and (iii) Purchaser
obtains a final and non-appealable judgment against Seller which remains unpaid for a period of thirty (30) days, then Seller agrees that Purchaser shall have the right to trace the Purchase Price to the extent necessary to satisfy such claim.
Seller represents to Purchaser that Seller has (or will prior to distribution of any such disposition proceeds) provide written notice to Seller’s partners, shareholders and members (and, if such partners, shareholders and members are entities
whose sole material asset is their respective interest in Seller, their respective members, partners and affiliates) of this tracing provision. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser has relied and has the right to rely upon the foregoing in
connection with Purchaser’s consummation of the 

  
 23 








 
transaction set forth in this Contract. After Closing Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover more than $5,000,000 in the aggregate as a result of any and all defaults or breaches by Seller
hereunder, and Purchaser shall not be entitled to receive or seek any such recovery until Purchaser’s damages, expenses and losses in connection with all such defaults or breaches exceeds $75,000. 

Section 9.07 Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of Record. If the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s lender requests
that a third party execute a document certifying as to the status of the rights, obligations and/or performance of Seller, or of such third party, under covenants, conditions restrictions, easements or other matters of record specifically identified
by Purchaser to Seller in writing, Seller shall do the following, in each case only upon request by Purchaser: (a) Seller shall request in writing that the applicable third party execute such certificate, in a form provided by Purchaser or
Purchaser’s Lender; (b) Seller shall follow up with the applicable third party in writing to determine whether such third party will comply with the request made in the foregoing clause (a); and (c) Seller shall take reasonable steps
requested by Purchaser to enforce the obligations of such third party under any covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements or other matters of record (to the extent such obligations are referenced in the Purchaser’s request) with respect to
the execution of the certificate provided to such third party pursuant to the foregoing clause (a), subject to any conditions in the applicable documents of record. It shall not be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to proceed with the
Closing that the Purchaser obtain any one or more of the certificates requested from third parties pursuant to this Section 9.07, and Seller shall not have any obligation to take any other action with respect to such certificates except
as expressly set forth in this Section 9.07. 
 Section 9.08 6B Status; Tax Appeals. Purchaser acknowledges that
Seller has applied to classify the Property as a “6B” property for assessment purposes by the Cook County, Illinois Assessor’s office. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall use reasonable good faith efforts to obtain such
classification and, prior to obtaining such classification, shall use reasonable good faith efforts to refrain from acting or failing to act in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent the Property from being classified as a 6B
property. At Closing Purchaser shall assume the Seller’s agreement with Madigan and Getzendanner as it relates to any real property tax appeals or contests, and as it relates to the finalization of the Property’s 6B program status.

RISK OF LOSS 

Section 11.01 Minor Damage. In the event of “minor” loss or damage [being defined for the purpose of this
Contract as damage to the Property such that the Property could be repaired or restored, in the opinion of an architect mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser (with any fees, costs or expenses pertaining to such opinion to be borne equally by
Purchaser and Seller), to a condition substantially identical to that of the Property immediately prior to the event of damage at a cost equal to or less than $2,000,000 and which would not permit any tenant to terminate its Lease, neither Seller
nor Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Contract as to the Property due to such damage but Seller shall, at Seller’s option as expressed to Purchaser in writing, either (a) repair and restore the damaged portion of the
Property to a condition substantially identical to that which existed immediately prior to the occurrence of such damage, or (b) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with
respect to any casualty, rental loss and other insurance policies relating to the Property. If Seller elects to repair and restore the damaged portion of the Property, Seller shall act promptly and diligently to complete such repairs in a good and
workmanlike manner and shall complete such repairs prior to the Closing Date if reasonably possible. If it is not reasonably possible to complete such repairs prior to the Closing Date, the parties will nonetheless proceed to the Closing without any
reduction of the Purchase Price, Seller shall assign all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty and other insurance policies relating to the casualty, and Purchaser shall
receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any deductible(s) under the insurance policies assigned to Purchaser. 

Section 11.02 Major Damage. In the event of a “major” casualty (being defined as any loss or damage which is not
“minor” as defined hereinabove), Purchaser shall have the option of terminating this Contract by written notice to Seller within ten (10) days after notice of such casualty, in which event Seller and Purchaser shall thereupon be
released from any and all liability hereunder. If Purchaser elects not to terminate this Contract or if Purchaser does not make any election within such ten (10) day period, 

  
 26 








 
Purchaser and Seller shall proceed with the Closing without any reduction of the Purchase Price, but (a) Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit in the amount of any applicable deductible,
and (b) Seller shall assign all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty, rental loss (other than rental loss for periods prior to Closing) and other insurance policies
relating to the casualty, and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any deductible(s) under the insurance policies assigned to Purchaser. 

Section 11.03 Vendor and Purchaser Risk. Except as set forth in Section 11.01 and Section 11.02, Seller shall
bear the full risk of loss until Closing. Upon the Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser. 

Section 11.04 Condemnation. If before the Closing any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are threatened or
initiated against all or any portion of the Property and, in the reasonable opinion of Purchaser, such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings would materially interfere with the current use of the Property, then Purchaser may terminate this
Contract upon written notice to Seller and Seller and Purchaser shall thereupon be released from any and all further liability hereunder. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Contract within ten (10) business days after receipt of
written notice of the commencement of any such proceedings, or if, in the reasonable opinion of Purchaser, such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings would not materially interfere with Seller’s current use of the Property, Seller shall
assign to Purchaser at the Closing all rights and interest of Seller in and to any condemnation awards payable or to become payable on account of such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings.

whether by its employees and representatives (“Purchaser’s Representatives”) or Seller or its respective employees and representatives (“Seller’s Representatives”), and (c) the identity of any direct or indirect

(b) Seller shall not issue any such press release without the Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. From and after the date hereof, Purchaser agrees (which agreement

limited to making or soliciting comments, statements or the like, to the media or to others, that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business reputation of Seller or any of its affiliates or any of their respective
managers, officers, agents or employees or any of their respective services.

that expressly survive Closing (the “Surviving Provisions”). Each Surviving Provision shall survive for the period of time expressly stated herein for survival of the same; provided, however, that any Surviving Provision with respect to
which a specific survival term is not specifically stated shall survive only until expiration of the Survival Period, and thereafter shall terminate (subject to the first sentence of Section 9.06).

any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.
