&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2 <u>Property</u>. Subject to the terms of this Purchase and Sale Agreement (this "<u>Agreement</u>"), Seller agrees to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, the following property (the "<u>Property</u>"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The real property described in <u>Exhibit A attached hereto</u>, together with the buildings and improvements thereon (the "<u>Improvements</u>"), and without warranty (whether statutory, express, or implied), all rights, easements and appurtenances thereto (the "<u>Real Property</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) All of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any and all fixtures, furniture, equipment, and other tangible personal property owned by Seller and presently located on the Real Property (the "<u>Personal Property</u>"), but excluding: (i) if the Personal Property includes computer hardware, any software installed therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All of Seller's right, title and interest, in and to any and all of the following items, to the extent assignable and without warranty (the "<u>Intangible Personal Property</u>"): (i) licenses, and permits relating to the operation of the Real Property, and (ii) if still in effect, guaranties and warranties received by Seller from any non-Seller affiliated contractor, manufacturer or other person in connection with the construction or operation of the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) All of Seller's right, title and interest, in and to the following, to the extent assignable and without warranty: (i) Standard Form of Agreement between Owner and Contractor where the basis of payment is a stipulated sum, AIA Document A101-2017 dated April 28, 2025 (the "<u>Construction Contract</u>"), between Seller and EE Reed Construction, L.P. (the "<u>Contractor</u>"), and (ii) Standard Form of Agreement between Owner and Architect, AIA Document B101-2017 dated January 8, 2024 (the "<u>Architect Agreement</u>"), between Seller and Ware Malcomb (the "<u>Architect</u>").

The Deposit shall be non-refundable to Purchaser at the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement. At Closing, the Deposit shall be applied to the Purchase Price. Otherwise, the Deposit shall be delivered to the party entitled to receive the Deposit in accordance with this Agreement.

<u>ARTICLE 2: INSPECTIONS</u>

Seller shall make available to Purchaser within five (5) business days after the Date of this Agreement the information listed on <u>Exhibit B</u> attached hereto ("<u>Property Information</u>") to the extent in Seller's possession.

Purchaser hereby waives any and all claims against Seller arising out of the accuracy, completeness, conclusions or statements expressed in materials so furnished, and any and all claims arising out of any duty of Seller to acquire, seek or obtain such materials. This provision shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 <u>Inspections</u>.

If any inspection or test disturbs the Property, Purchaser will restore the Property to the same condition as existed before the inspection or test. **PURCHASER SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS SELLER AND SELLER'S PARTNERS, MEMBERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE PARTNERS, MEMBERS, SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS ("<u>SELLER RELATED PARTIES</u>") AND THE PROPERTY FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, COSTS, DAMAGES, CLAIMS, LIENS OR LIABILITIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES (COLLECTIVELY, "<u>CLAIMS</u>"), ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ENTRY OR INSPECTIONS PERFORMED BY PURCHASER OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES, EVEN IF SUCH CLAIMS ARE CAUSED SOLELY OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY OF ANY SELLER RELATED PARTY, BUT NOT TO THE EXTENT SUCH CLAIMS ARISE OUT THE DISCOVERY BY PURCHASER OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES OF EXISTING PROPERTY CONDITIONS, UNLESS AND EXCEPT IF PURCHASER OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES EXACERBATE SUCH CONDITIONS, OR ARE CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY SUCH SELLER RELATED PARTY**. This indemnity shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Environmental Inspections</u>. The inspections permitted under <u>Section 2.2</u> may include a non-invasive Phase I environmental inspection of the Property, but no Phase II environmental inspection or other invasive inspection or sampling of soil or materials, including without limitation construction materials, either as part of the Phase I inspection or any other inspection, shall be performed without the prior written consent of Seller, which may be withheld in Seller's sole and absolute discretion, and if consented to by Seller, the proposed scope of work and the party who will perform the work shall be subject to Seller's review and approval. Upon request of Seller, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller copies of any Phase I, Phase II or other environmental report to which Seller consents as provided above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Contact with Governmental Authorities</u>. Except as provided below, Purchaser shall not contact any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Property without Seller's prior written consent. Seller's consent shall not be required with respect to a customary and reasonable Phase I environmental audit and code compliance review of the Property or contacting a governmental authority in connection with obtaining customary zoning and building code compliance information relating to the Property except for any telephonic or face-to-face meetings with governmental officials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.4 <u>Termination During Due Diligence Period</u>.

Provided Purchaser is not in default hereunder, Seller shall authorize the Title Company to refund the Deposit to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further rights or liabilities hereunder except for those provisions which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5 <u>Purchaser's Reliance on its Investigations</u>. **Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Property is being sold, and Purchaser accepts possession of the Property on the date of Closing, "AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS," with no right of setoff or reduction in the Purchase Price; (b) except for Seller's representations and warranties in <u>Section 8.1</u> ("<u>Seller's Warranties</u>"), neither Seller nor any Seller Related Party has or shall be deemed to have made any verbal or written representations, warranties, promises or guarantees (whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise) to Purchaser with respect to the Property, any matter set forth, contained or addressed in the documents delivered to Purchaser in connection with the Property (including, but not limited to, the accuracy and completeness thereof) or the results of Purchaser's due diligence; and (c) Purchaser has confirmed independently all information that it considers material to its purchase of the Property or the transaction contemplated hereby.

Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, except for Seller's Warranties, Seller is under no duty to make any affirmative disclosures or inquiry regarding any matter which may or may not be known to Seller or the Seller Related Parties, and Purchaser, for itself and for its successors and assigns, hereby specifically waives and releases Seller and each Seller Related Party from any such duty that otherwise might exist.**

**Except for the Seller's Warranties, Purchaser, for itself and its partners, members, shareholders, directors, officers, affiliates, agents, contractors, employees, and their respective successors and assigns ("<u>Purchaser Related Parties</u>"), hereby releases Seller and each Seller Related Party from, and waives all claims and liability against Seller and each Seller Related Party for or attributable to, the following: (a) any and all statements or opinions heretofore or hereafter made, or information furnished, by the Seller or Seller Related Parties to Purchaser or any of the Purchaser Related Parties; and (b) any and all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, expenses, demands or obligations of any kind or nature whatsoever attributable to the Property, whether arising or accruing before, on or after the date hereof and whether attributable to events or circumstances which have heretofore or may hereafter occur, including, without limitation, (i) all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, expenses, demands and obligations with respect to the structural, physical, or environmental condition of the Property; (ii) all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, expenses, demands and obligations relating to the release of or the presence, discovery or removal of any HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES OR hazardous materials in, at, about or under the Property, or for, connected with or arising out of any and all claims or causes of action based upon CERCLA (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, 42 U.S.C. §§9601 et seq., as amended by SARA (Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act of 1986) and as may be further amended from time to time), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, 42 U.S.C. §§6901 et seq., or any related claims or causes of action or any other federal, state or municipal based statutory or regulatory causes of action for environmental contamination at, in, about or under the Property, OR COMMON LAW; and (iii) any tort claims made or brought with respect to the Property or the use or operation thereof.**

The provisions of this <u>Section 2.5</u> shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.

<u>ARTICLE 3: TITLE AND SURVEY REVIEW</u>

Within three (3) business days after the Date of this Agreement, Seller will provide to Purchaser a commitment for title insurance ("<u>Title Commitment</u>") for the Property from the Title Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4 <u>Title Updates</u>.

If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller a notice of objections on or before such date, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any objection to the New Exceptions, and the New Exceptions will be included as Permitted Exceptions. Seller will have not less than ten (10) days from the receipt of Purchaser's notice (and, if necessary, Seller may extend the Closing Date to provide for such ten (10) day period and for five (5) days following such period for Purchaser's response), within which time Seller may, but is under no obligation to remove or insure over the objectionable New Exceptions. If, within the ten (10) day period, Seller or Title Company does not (or does not agree to) remove or insure over the objectionable New Exceptions, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller no later than five (5) days following expiration of the ten (10) day cure period. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement, the Deposit will be promptly returned to Purchaser, and the parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement (except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement). If Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement in the manner set forth above, the New Exceptions (except Monetary Liens and those Seller and/or Title Company has removed or insured over or agreed to remove or insure over) will be included as Permitted Exceptions.

During the pendency of this Agreement, Seller shall not encumber the Property (except to modify its existing loan prior to Closing) or initiate or consent to any action with respect to zoning or other Property entitlements.

If before the Closing the Property shall be materially damaged, or if the Property or any material portion thereof shall be subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation or shall become the subject of any proceedings, judicial, administrative or otherwise, with respect to the taking by eminent domain or condemnation, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given within five (5) business days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of the damage or taking, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. If the Closing Date is within the aforesaid 5-day period, then Closing shall be extended to the next business day following the end of said 5-day period. If no such election is made, and in any event if the damage (or, in the case of a taking, the affected portion of the Property) is not material, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the purchase contemplated herein, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, shall be effected with no further adjustment, and upon the Closing of this purchase, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Purchaser all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to any awards that have been or that may thereafter be made for such taking, and Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Purchaser any insurance proceeds not applied to the repair of the Property prior to Closing that may thereafter be made for such damage or destruction, and, if an insured casualty, Seller shall pay or credit to Purchaser the amount of any deductible (but not to exceed the amount of the loss). In the event a non-material damage occurs and Seller is unable to obtain the insurer's written and binding approval of assignment of insurance claims and proceeds before the Closing Date, notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. For the purposes of this <u>Section 4.5</u>, the phrases "<u>material damage</u>" and "<u>materially damaged</u>" means damage reasonably exceeding $1,000,000 to repair, and a "<u>material portion</u>" means a portion exceeding $1,000,000 in value or that will have a material and adverse effect on the access to or the value, use or operation of the Real Property. The provisions of this <u>Section 4.5</u> supersede the provisions of any applicable laws with respect to the subject matter of this <u>Section 4.5</u>.

All expenses and income for the Property shall be prorated as of 12:01 a.m., Central time on the Closing Date. For purposes of calculating prorations, Purchaser shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and therefore entitled to the income therefrom and responsible for the expenses thereof, for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs. All such prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the year and month that shall have elapsed as of the Closing Date. The amount of such prorations shall be adjusted in cash at Closing; provided that such prorations are subject to further adjustment after Closing, as and when complete and accurate information becomes available in accordance with <u>Section 7.2(b)</u>. Items of income and expense for the period prior to the Closing Date will be for the account of Seller and items of income and expense for the period on and after the Closing Date will be for the account of Purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Taxes and Assessments</u>. Real estate taxes and assessments imposed by governmental authority that are not yet due and payable shall be prorated as of the Closing Date based upon the most recent ascertainable assessed values and tax rates.

In the event taxes and assessments for the year of Closing have not been paid before Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit for a pro rata portion of such unpaid taxes or assessments for Seller's period of ownership during such year, and within thirty (30) days after the actual amount of such taxes and assessments are available, Seller and Purchaser shall adjust the proration of such taxes and assessments, with Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, paying the other any amount required as a result of such adjustment. Seller shall be responsible for, and pay at Closing, any "roll-back" or "catch up" taxes, if any, resulting from a sale of or change of use of the Property. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, any real estate tax refunds or rebates which apply to periods before the Closing Date shall remain the property of Seller, and if Closing extends beyond April 17, 2026, Seller shall have the right to file after Closing any appeals attributable to Seller's period of ownership of the Property (including any appeal of taxes for the year in which Closing occurs) with respect to tax assessments for the Property. Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller in connection with any such appeal; however, Seller shall not settle for a taxable value for the Property in excess of the Purchase Price without Purchaser's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Seller is successful in any such tax appeal related to the calendar year in which Closing occurs, Purchaser and Seller shall share in the cost of such appeal and rebates or refunds in the same proportion as the proration of real estate taxes set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Final Adjustment After Closing</u>. If final prorations cannot be made at Closing for any item being prorated under this <u>Section 7.1</u> , then Purchaser and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as invoices or bills are available and applicable reconciliations with tenants have been completed, with final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing but no later than one hundred thirty (30) days after the final tax bills are available, to the effect that income and expenses are received and paid by the parties on an accrual basis with respect to their period of ownership.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 <u>Utility Deposits</u>. Purchaser shall be responsible for making any deposits required with utility companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3 <u>Sale Commissions</u>. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant each to the other that they have not dealt with any real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this transaction other than Broker. If this transaction is closed, Seller shall pay Broker in accordance with their separate agreement. Broker is an independent contractor and is not authorized to make any agreement or representation on behalf of either party. Except as expressly set forth above, if any claim is made for broker's or finder's fees or commissions in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each party shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any such claim based upon any purported or actual statement, representation or agreement of such party, except Seller shall be solely responsible for any commission due to Broker under Seller's separate agreement with Broker. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4 <u>Costs Under Conditional Access Easement and Maintenance Agreement</u>. To the extent that there are any outstanding and unpaid construction or maintenance costs attributable to the period of Seller's ownership of the Property prior to Closing under that certain Conditional Access Easement and Maintenance Agreement dated October 5, 2018 (the "<u>Access Easement</u>") between Endress+Hasuer, Inc., an Indiana corporation and Gold Knight Holdings, L.P., a Texas limited partnership, recorded on October 9, 2018 as Harris County, Texas Clerk's No. RP-2018-462891 and Purchaser provides an invoice with respect to such costs from the non-Purchaser party to the Access Agreement prior to the Limitation Period (hereinafter defined), Seller agrees to reimburse Purchaser for such costs within ten (10) business days after receipt of a copy of the invoice supporting such costs.

<u>ARTICLE 9: DEFAULT AND DAMAGES</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1 <u>Default by Purchaser</u>. If Purchaser defaults under this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that Seller shall have the right to have the Title Company deliver the Deposit to Seller as liquidated damages to recompense Seller for time spent, labor and services performed, and the loss of its bargain. Purchaser and Seller agree that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to affix damages if Purchaser so defaults and that the Deposit, together with the interest thereon, represents a reasonable estimate of Seller's damages. Seller agrees to accept the Deposit as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy if Purchaser defaults under this Agreement. If Purchaser does so default, this Agreement shall be terminated and Purchaser shall have no further right, title or interest in or to the Property. Nothing in this <u>Section 9.1</u> shall affect any Purchaser indemnity or other obligation under this Agreement that expressly survives any termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2 <u>Default by Seller</u>. If Seller defaults under this Agreement, Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy shall be to elect one of the following: (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser shall be entitled to the return by the Title Company to Purchaser of the Deposit and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Purchaser's actual, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and Purchaser's due diligence not to exceed $20,000 after Purchaser's submission to Seller of invoices reasonably supporting such costs (the "<u>Due Diligence Costs</u>"), or (b) to bring a suit for specific performance provided that any suit for specific performance must be brought within thirty (30) days of Seller's default, to the extent permitted by law, Purchaser waiving the right to bring suit at any later date. Purchaser hereby waives any other rights or remedies, including, without limitation, the right to seek money damages, except as provided in <u>Section 9.3(a)</u> below. In no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages. This Agreement confers no present right, title or interest in the Property to Purchaser and Purchaser agrees not to file a *lis pendens* or other similar notice against the Property except in connection with, and after, the filing of a suit for specific performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the remedy of specific performance is not available due to Seller's wrongful conveyance of the Property to another party, then in that event Purchaser shall also have the right to seek and obtain damages against Seller in an amount equal to the positive difference between the sales price Seller actually receives from the third party in connection with said conveyance of the Property, less the Purchase Price under this Agreement allocated to such Property, plus the Due Diligence Costs, not to exceed Seller's Maximum Liability (hereinafter defined).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.3 <u>Limitations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Limitation Period</u>. The representations and warranties of Seller, and any covenants and indemnities of Seller which expressly survive the Closing, contained in this Agreement and in any document executed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall survive Purchaser's purchase of the Property for a period commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the date nine (9) months after the Closing Date (the "<u>Limitation Period</u>"). Purchaser shall not be entitled to make a claim against Seller for a violation of any covenant, indemnity, representation or warranty with respect to the Property unless the amount of damages to Purchaser equals or exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) in the aggregate of all such claims. Seller's aggregate liability for claims arising out of such covenants, indemnities, representations and warranties with respect to the Property shall not exceed one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Purchase Price, inclusive of attorneys' fees (the "<u>Seller's Maximum Liability</u>"). Purchaser shall provide written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Limitation Period of any alleged breach of such covenants, indemnities, warranties or representations and shall allow Seller thirty (30) days within which to cure such breach, or, if such breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, an additional reasonable time period, so long as such cure has been commenced within such thirty (30) and is being diligently pursued. If Seller fails to cure such breach after written notice and within such cure period, Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy shall be an action at law for actual damages (subject to the second and third sentences of this <u>Section 9.3(a)</u>) as a consequence thereof, which must be commenced, if at all, within the Limitation Period; provided, however, that if within the Limitation Period Purchaser gives Seller written notice of such a breach and Seller notifies Purchaser of Seller's commencement of a cure, commences to cure and thereafter terminates such cure effort, Purchaser shall have an additional thirty (30) from the date of such termination within which to commence an action at law for damages as a consequence of Seller's failure to cure. The Limitation Period referred to herein shall apply to known as well as unknown breaches of such covenants, indemnities, warranties or representations. Purchaser's waiver and release set forth in <u>Section 2.5</u> shall apply fully to liabilities under such covenants, indemnitees, representations and warranties and is hereby incorporated by this reference. Purchaser specifically acknowledges that such termination of liability represents a material element of the consideration to Seller. The limitation as to Seller's liability in this <u>Section 9.3(a)</u> does not apply to Seller's liability with respect to prorations and adjustments under <u>Article 7 or Seller's indemnity under Section 7.3</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section 9.3(a)</u> shall survive the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Disclosure</u>. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, if during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing, Seller discloses any matters which make any of Seller's representations and warranties untrue in any material respect or in the event that Purchaser otherwise becomes aware during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing of any matters which make any of Seller's representations or warranties untrue in any material respect, such representations and warranties shall be deemed modified to reflect such matters and Seller shall bear no liability for such matters (provided that such untruth is not the result of Seller's breach of any express covenant set forth in this Agreement), but Purchaser shall have the right to elect in writing within five (5) days after becoming aware of any such matter, but in no event later than the Closing Date, (i) as to any matter disclosed following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and receive a refund of the Deposit, or (ii) to waive such matter and complete the purchase of the Property without reduction of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (and any failure to give written notice under clause (i) shall be deemed to constitute such a waiver).

<u>ARTICLE 10: DEPOSIT PROVISIONS</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 <u>Investment and Use of Funds</u>. The Title Company shall invest the Deposit in government insured interest-bearing accounts satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller, shall not commingle the Deposit with any funds of the Title Company or others, and shall promptly provide Purchaser and Seller with confirmation of the investments made. If the Closing under this Agreement occurs, the Title Company shall apply the Deposit to the Purchase Price on the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 <u>Termination</u>. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, upon not less than five (5) business days' prior written notice to the Title Company and the other party, Title Company shall deliver the Deposit to the party requesting the same; provided, however, that if the other party shall, within said five (5) business day period, deliver to the requesting party and the Title Company a written notice that the other party disputes the claim to the Deposit, Title Company shall retain the Deposit until Title Company receives written instructions executed by both Seller and Purchaser as to the disposition and disbursement of the Deposit, or until ordered by final court order, decree or judgment, which is not subject to appeal, to deliver the Deposit to a particular party, in which event the Deposit shall be delivered in accordance with such notice, instruction, order, decree or judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3 <u>Interpleader</u>. Seller and Purchaser mutually agree that in the event of any controversy regarding the Deposit, unless mutual written instructions are received by the Title Company directing the Deposit's disposition, the Title Company shall not take any action, but instead shall await the disposition of any proceeding relating to the Deposit or, at the Title Company's option, the Title Company may interplead all parties and deposit the Deposit with a court of competent jurisdiction in which event the Title Company may recover all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. Seller or Purchaser, whichever loses in any such interpleader action, shall be solely obligated to pay such costs and fees of the Title Company, as well as the reasonable attorneys' fees of the prevailing party in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4 <u>Liability of Title Company</u>. The parties acknowledge that the Title Company is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Title Company shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Title Company shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for Title Company's grossly negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or Purchaser resulting from the Title Company's mistake of law respecting the Title Company's scope or nature of its duties.

<u>ARTICLE 11: MISCELLANEOUS</u>

<u> </u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1 <u>Parties Bound</u>. Except for an Exchange (hereinafter defined), Purchaser may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, and any such prohibited assignment shall be void; provided, however, that upon five (5) business days' advance notice to Seller, Purchaser may assign this Agreement without Seller's consent to an Affiliate, so long as such Affiliate assumes in writing all of Purchaser's obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties. For the purposes of this <u>Section 11.1</u>, the term "<u>Affiliate</u>" means an entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Purchaser; and the term "control" means the power to direct the management of such entity through voting rights, ownership or contractual obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.2 <u>Confidentiality; Press Release</u>. Until the Closing, neither Seller nor Purchaser will release or cause or permit to be released any press notices, or publicity or advertising promotion relating to, or otherwise announce or disclose or cause or permit to be announced or disclosed, in any manner whatsoever, the terms, conditions or substance of this Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of the other party. The foregoing shall not preclude either party from discussing the substance or any relevant details of such transactions with any of its attorneys, accountants, professional consultants, lenders, partners, investors, or any prospective lender, partner or investor, as the case may be, or prevent either party hereto, from complying with laws, rules, regulations and court orders, including without limitation, governmental regulatory, disclosure, tax and reporting requirements or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each party shall have the right to seek equitable relief, including without limitation injunctive relief or specific performance, against the other party in order to enforce the provisions of this <u>Section 11.2</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section 11.2</u> shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser may file this Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K or other periodic report pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such disclosure shall not constitute a breach of the confidentiality provisions herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.3 <u>Headings</u>. The article and section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and in no way limit or enlarge the scope or meaning of the language hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.4 <u>Invalidity and Waiver</u>. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or inoperative, then so far as is reasonable and possible the remainder of this Agreement shall be deemed valid and operative, and effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative. If any limitation of time contained in this Agreement for the bringing of any action, the enforcement of any remedy, or the recovery of any claim is prohibited or invalid by or under applicable law, then and in that event no suit or action shall be commenced or maintainable in respect of such action, remedy or claim unless commenced within two years and one day after such cause of action, remedy or claim accrues. The failure by either party to enforce against the other any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party's right to enforce against the other party the same or any other such term or provision in the future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.5 <u>Governing Law</u>. This Agreement shall, in all respects, be governed, construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the law of the state in which the Property is located.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.6 <u>No Third Party Beneficiary</u>. This Agreement is not intended to give or confer any benefits, rights, privileges, claims, actions, or remedies to any person or entity as a third party beneficiary, decree, or otherwise.

This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.9 <u>Attorneys' Fees</u>. Should either party employ attorneys to enforce any of the provisions hereof, the party against whom any final judgment is entered agrees to pay the prevailing party all reasonable costs, charges, and expenses, including attorneys' fees, expended or incurred in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.10 <u>Notices</u>. All notices, consents, approvals, acceptances, demands, waivers and other communications ("<u>Notices</u>") required or permitted hereunder must be in writing and must be sent by (i) electronic mail or (ii) next day delivery by nationally recognized overnight delivery service that provides evidence of the date of delivery, in any case with all charges prepaid, addressed to the appropriate party at its address listed in <u>Section 1.1</u>.

Notices given by counsel to a party in accordance with the above shall be deemed given by such party. A party's address may be changed by written notice to the other party; provided, however, that no notice of a change of address shall be effective until actual receipt of such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.11 <u>Construction</u>. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.12 <u>Calculation of Time Periods</u>. Unless otherwise specified, in computing any period of time described herein, the day of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be included, unless such last day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday for national banks in the location where the Property is located, in which event the period shall run until the end of the next day which is neither a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. The last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m., Central Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13 <u>Execution in Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one Agreement. To facilitate execution of this Agreement, the parties may execute and exchange by e-mail as a portable document format or other electronic imaging, counterparts of the signature pages, which shall be deemed original signatures for all purposes.

Either party may consummate the purchase and sale of the Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (the "<u>Exchange</u>") pursuant to §1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "<u>Code</u>"), provided that: (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of the Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to either party's obligations under this Agreement; (ii) the exchanging party shall effect the Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a qualified intermediary; (iii) the non-exchanging party shall not be required to take an assignment of the purchase agreement for the relinquished property or be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating the Exchange; and (iv) the exchanging party shall pay any additional costs that would not otherwise have been incurred by Purchaser or Seller had the exchanging party not consummated this transaction through the Exchange. The non-exchanging party shall not, by this Agreement or acquiescence to the Exchange, have its rights under this Agreement diminished in any manner or be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted that the Exchange in fact complies with §1031 of the Code.
