Exhibit 10.1

PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

     THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered as of June 7, 2006 (the
“Effective Date”), by and between Sun Microsystems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”), and
BioMed Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (“Buyer”).

RECITALS

     This Agreement is made with respect to the following facts and circumstances:

     A. Seller is the owner of certain real property (“Real Property”) located at 7777 Gateway
Blvd., in the City of Newark, California, which is improved by ten buildings (each, a “Building”
and collectively the “Buildings”), which real property is more particularly described in the legal
description attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof.

     B. Buyer desires to purchase the Property (as defined below) from Seller. Buyer and Seller
are entering this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions of Seller’s sale of the Property
to Buyer.

     In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

     1. Agreement to Purchase and Sell.

          1.1 The Property. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Seller agrees
to sell, assign and convey to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase and accept from Seller, on the
Closing Date (as defined below) the following (collectively, the “Property”):

               1.1.1 the land (“Land”) upon which the Real Property is located, which shall be
deemed to include the interest of Seller, if any, to any and all of the following, without
representation by Seller as to the extent of any interest it may have: all rights, privileges,
licenses and easements appurtenant to the Land;

               1.1.2 any and all infrastructure improvements, buildings, structures and attached
fixtures presently located on the Land (collectively, the “Improvements”); and

               1.1.3 the interest of Seller, if any, to any and all of the following, without
representation by Seller as to the extent of any interest it may have or the nature or condition
thereof: (i) permits, authorizations, entitlements and approvals issued by any governmental
authority with respect to the Land and Improvements; (ii) plans, drawings, specifications, surveys,
engineering reports and other technical descriptions respecting the Land and Improvements; (iii)
the furniture existing and in place in the Buildings at Closing.

     2. Purchase Price; Payment.

          2.1 Purchase Price. The total purchase price for the Property (the
“Purchase Price”) shall be Two Hundred Fifteen Million Dollars ($215,000,000). The Purchase Price
shall be paid as set forth below.

          2.2 Initial Deposit. Within one (1) business day after the Effective Date,
Buyer shall deliver into escrow with Chicago Title Company, 701 B. Street, 17th Floor, San Diego,
California (“Escrow Holder” or “Title Company”), Attn: Renee Marshall, a deposit in the amount of
Four Million

 

Dollars (US$4,000,000.00) (the “Initial Deposit”). Except as expressly provided herein, the
Initial Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer and payable to Seller as liquidated damages in
accordance with Section 12.1, but shall be applicable to the Purchase Price if the Closing (as
defined below) occurs as set forth in this Agreement. The failure of Buyer to deliver the Initial
Deposit to Escrow Holder in a timely fashion shall be a material default and shall entitle Seller,
at Seller’s sole option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Buyer at any time
until such funds are delivered by Buyer to Escrow Holder.

          2.3 Additional Deposit. On the next business day following the end of the
Due Diligence Period (as defined in Section 4.2), unless this Agreement shall have been terminated
as herein provided, Buyer shall deliver to Escrow Holder an additional Four Million Dollars
(US$4,000,000.00) (the “Additional Deposit”). Except as expressly provided herein, the Additional
Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer and payable to Seller as liquidated damages in accordance
with Section 12.1, but shall be applicable to the Purchase Price if the Closing occurs as set forth
in this Agreement. The Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit are referred to herein
collectively as the “Deposit”. The failure of Buyer to deliver the Additional Deposit in a timely
fashion shall be a material default and shall entitle Seller, at Seller’s sole option, to terminate
this Agreement by giving written notice to Buyer at any time until such funds are delivered by
Buyer to Escrow Holder.

          2.4 Interest on Deposit. The Deposit shall be held by Escrow Holder in an
interest-bearing account in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, with interest
accruing to the benefit of Buyer prior to its release to Seller. The term “Deposit” shall include
any and all interest then accrued.

          2.5 Cash Balance. The balance of the Purchase Price, plus or minus
prorations and other adjustments as provided in this Agreement, if any, shall be due at Closing and
shall be paid by Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds paid to Escrow Holder by no
later than 5:00 p.m. on the day prior to the Closing Date.

     3. Escrow.

          3.1 Opening of Escrow. Seller shall deliver a copy of a fully executed
counterpart of this Agreement into escrow (“Escrow”) with Escrow Holder on or before three (3)
business days following the Effective Date.

          3.2 Instructions to Escrow Holder. Seller and Buyer shall each be entitled
to submit escrow instructions to the Escrow Holder in connection with the Closing. Seller and
Buyer shall, in addition, execute such further escrow instructions as the Escrow Holder may
reasonably require in connection with the Closing as long as such instructions are consistent with
the provisions of this Agreement and the escrow instructions of Seller and Buyer. In the event of
any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the provisions of any escrow
instructions prepared by Seller, Buyer or the Escrow Holder, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall control.

          3.3 Closing. The purchase and sale of the Property as contemplated by this
Agreement, including but not limited to the delivery of the Deed (defined below), payment of the
Purchase Price and receipt thereof by Seller, and the completion of the other matters required by
this Agreement to be done contemporaneously (the “Closing”) shall occur through an escrow with the
Escrow Holder, and be completed by 5:00 p.m. on July 11, 2006 (the “Required Closing Date”), it
being understood that if such fifteenth day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday
(recognized in Newark, California), then the Required Closing Date shall occur on the next business
day. The date on which the Closing actually occurs shall be referred to as the “Closing Date”.

 

     4. Inspection.

          4.1 Documents. To the extent such items are in Seller’s possession, and are
not either proprietary to Seller or subject to any agreement by Seller to maintain their
confidentiality, Seller shall provide to Buyer, or make available for inspection at Seller’s office
located at 7777 Gateway Blvd., Building 15, Newark, California, the information and documents set
forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Property Information”) within three (3) business
days after the Effective Date. Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the
truth or accuracy of the information and documents to be delivered and is providing the same solely
as an accommodation to Buyer. Buyer and its representatives shall hold in strict confidence all
data and information obtained with respect to Seller or the Property whether obtained before or
after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall not disclose the same to others;
provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that Buyer may disclose such data and
information (i) to the employees, lenders, investors, consultants, appraisers, accountants and
attorneys of Buyer, provided that such persons agree to treat such data and information
confidentially, and (ii) to the extent such data and information is generally known to the public
or discoverable through a search of the public records. Further, data and information obtained by
Buyer with respect to Seller or the Property may be disclosed to the extent required by applicable
law including, without limitation, as a response to service of process or subpoena, and shall be
further subject to disclosure in connection with any litigation between Seller and Buyer. In the
event this Agreement is terminated or Buyer fails to perform hereunder, Buyer shall promptly
deliver to Seller’s counsel all Property Information and any other statements, documents,
schedules, exhibits and other written information obtained from Seller in connection with this
Agreement or the transaction contemplated herein. It is understood and agreed that, with respect
to any provision of this Agreement which refers to the termination of this Agreement and the return
of the Deposit to Buyer, Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) of the Deposit shall not be
returned to Buyer unless and until Buyer has fulfilled its obligation to deliver to Seller’s
counsel the materials described in the preceding sentence and the Information in accordance with
Section 4.2.4. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing or any termination of this
Agreement, provided that following the Closing, Buyer shall be entitled to employ all data and
information with respect to the Property as reasonably required in connection with the ownership
and operation of the Property.

          4.2 Due Diligence. Buyer shall have until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the
fifteenth (15th) day after the Effective Date (the “Due Diligence Period”) in which to
examine, inspect, and investigate the Property, and, in Buyer’s sole and absolute judgment and
discretion, to determine whether the same is satisfactory to Buyer. Buyer may terminate this
Agreement pursuant to this Section by giving notice of termination (the “Due Diligence Termination
Notice”) to Seller and Title Company on or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due
Diligence Period. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect if Buyer does not give a
Due Diligence Termination Notice on or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due
Diligence Period, and Buyer’s failure to provide such notice shall constitute Buyer’s waiver of the
termination right provided in this Section. In the event Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to this Section, then (i) promptly upon such termination, Buyer shall deliver to Seller
all information, materials and data (collectively, the “Information”) that Buyer and/or its agents,
employees, representatives, consultants or contractors (collectively, “Buyer’s Agents”) discover,
obtain or generate in connection with or resulting from Buyer’s investigation of the Property,
other than internal analyses produced by Buyer of a proprietary nature or items that are reasonably
subject to attorney-client privilege, (ii) the Initial Deposit shall be released to Buyer (subject
to the provisions of Section 4.1), and (iii) Buyer shall pay all title, survey and escrow charges,
whereupon neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further obligation or liability to each other,
save and except for the waivers, releases, indemnity, document return and insurance obligations of
Buyer that are stated to survive the termination of this Agreement (the “Surviving Obligations”).

 

               4.2.1 Buyer shall have access to the Property at reasonable times (subject to
Seller’s prior approval of the specific time and activities to be conducted by Buyer during such
access, and Seller’s security requirements) during the term of this Agreement for the purpose of
conducting inspections and tests reasonably required by Buyer (collectively, the “Inspections”).
At least one (1) business days prior to any entry on or Inspection of the Property, Buyer shall:
(i) deliver to Seller written notice of its intention to enter the Property to conduct such
Inspection and the proposed date and time of such entry (Buyer may enter only on the dates and at
the times that have been approved in advance by Seller, and Seller shall have the right to have one
or more of its agents or representatives accompany Buyer and Buyer’s Agents at all times while
Buyer and Buyer’s Agents are on the Property); (ii) provide Seller copies of any work plans for any
testing for Seller’s prior written approval, which work plan Seller may modify, limit or disapprove
in its sole but reasonable discretion; and (iii) provide Seller with certificates of insurance from
Buyer and from each Buyer’s Agent inspecting the Property (from an insurance carrier reasonably
acceptable to Seller) evidencing the existence of (a) commercial general liability insurance, in an
amount not less than $2,000,000 combined limits for any injuries, deaths or property damage
sustained as a result of any one accident or occurrence, (b) worker’s compensation insurance at
statutory limits, and (c) employer’s liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 for
each accident, disease per employee and disease policy limit. The commercial general liability
insurance shall name Seller as an additional insured. Additionally, Buyer, on behalf of Buyer and
Buyer’s Agents, hereby waives any claims against the Indemnitees (defined below) for any injury to
persons (except to the extent such injury is caused by Seller’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct) or damage to property arising out of any Inspections, including, without limitation,
any damage to the tools and equipment of Buyer or Buyer’s Agents, all of which shall be brought
onto the Property at the sole risk and responsibility of Buyer and Buyer’s Agents.

               4.2.2 Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with all applicable federal,
state and local laws, rules, statutes, regulations, ordinances, or policies in conducting the
Inspections. Buyer shall keep the Property free clear of any liens and shall hold harmless,
protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Seller) and indemnify Seller and its
respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and
its respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) and the Property, from and
against any liabilities, claims, demands, causes of action, losses, costs, damages, penalties,
fines, taxes, remedial actions, removal and disposal costs, investigation and remedial costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’, expert and consultant fees), whether direct or
indirect, known or unknown (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of or relating to the work or
activities conducted on the Property by Buyer or Buyer’s Agents, including without limitation any
Claims for (i) any injuries to persons (including death) or damage to any property; provided,
however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not extend to (1) any liabilities to the extent arising
as a result of the mere discovery by Buyer of a pre-existing condition that has a deleterious
effect on the Property, or (2) any Claims caused by Seller’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct, or (ii) any mechanic’s, workers’ or other liens on the Property, by reason of or
relating to the work or activities conducted on the Property by Buyer or Buyer’s Agents. In no
event shall Buyer indemnify Seller for any Claims caused by Seller’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The foregoing provisions shall not be limited in any way by any other terms of this
Agreement, and shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.

               4.2.3 Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, clean up and repair the Property in
whatever manner necessary after Buyer or Buyer’s Agents’ entry thereon so that the Property shall
be returned to the same condition that existed prior to Buyer’s or Buyer’s Agents’ entry thereon.

               4.2.4 Buyer shall promptly provide to Seller’s counsel a copy of all Information
that Buyer or Buyer’s Agents discover, obtain or generate in connection with or resulting from
their Inspections and work under this Section. All such Information shall be deemed confidential,
and Buyer shall not disclose or permit Buyer’s Agents to disclose to any third party, other than
Buyer’s consultants,

 

agents and attorneys associated with the applicable investigation of the Property and other
than as may be required by applicable law, the results of Buyer’s Inspection. Buyer shall, in
addition, be entitled to disclose the results of Buyer’s Inspection to investors and potential
lenders with respect to the Property and shall further be entitled to disclose such information as
required by applicable law, including, without limitation, as required by service of process or
subpoena, and in connection with any litigation between Seller and Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify,
defend, protect and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against all Claims arising out of
Buyer’s breach of the foregoing obligations.

     5. Title Review.

          5.1 Delivery of Title Report and Survey. Buyer acknowledges that it has
received a preliminary title report dated as of May 18, 2006 (the “Title Report”) issued by the
Title Company with respect to the Property and an ALTA survey of the Property dated June 5, 1997
(the “Existing Survey”). Seller shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to obtain, at Buyer’s
expense, and deliver to Buyer by June 26, 2006, an update to the Existing Survey (the “Updated
Survey” and, together with the Existing Survey, the “Survey”).

          5.2 Title Due Diligence.

               5.2.1 Buyer shall review title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Report and
the Survey. Buyer shall have from the Effective Date until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day
of the Due Diligence Period to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether the
condition of title to the Property is acceptable to Buyer, including whether Buyer is satisfied
that a title policy in form acceptable to Buyer will be available upon Closing, subject to the
provisions set forth below in Section 5.2.2. If the condition of title is not acceptable to Buyer,
Buyer may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section by giving notice of termination (the
“Title Due Diligence Termination Notice”) to Seller and Title Company on or before 5:00 p.m.
Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period. This Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect if Buyer does not give a Title Due Diligence Termination Notice on or before 5:00
p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period, and Buyer’s failure to provide such
notice shall constitute Buyer’s waiver of the termination right provided in this Section. In the
event Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section, then this Agreement shall
be terminated upon all of the terms and conditions applicable to a termination hereof by Buyer
pursuant to the termination right set forth in Section 4.2, including the withhold of the portion
of the Deposit as therein provided pending return of the Information.

               5.2.2 On or prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to the Title Company such
instructions and assurances as may customarily be required in order for the Title Company to issue
upon Closing a policy of title insurance for the Property without exception for any monetary liens
(including, without limitation, mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens or claims thereof) affecting the
Property that Seller has created or expressly permitted to exist (that were not caused by Buyer or
any of Buyer’s Agents), other than current non-delinquent taxes or assessments (“Monetary Liens”).
After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, but prior to the Closing, Buyer may notify Seller
in writing (a “Subsequent Title Defects Notice”) of (i) any title exceptions to which Buyer may
object that have arisen by reason of rights granted or instruments recorded by Seller after the
date which is three (3) business days before the end of the Due Diligence Period, other than as
authorized or permitted by this Agreement or made with Buyer’s consent, or (ii) any exception
arising from a matter shown on the Updated Survey, and not appearing on the Existing Survey, to
which Buyer may object. If Buyer gives a Subsequent Title Defects Notice to Seller, Seller shall
have five (5) business days after receipt thereof to notify Buyer that (a) Seller will endeavor to
remove such exceptions from title on or before the Closing (provided that if Seller is unable to do
so, Seller shall give notice thereof to Buyer and Buyer may elect to proceed or terminate as
provided below), provided that Seller may extend the Closing for such period as shall be required
to effect such

 

cure, but not beyond thirty (30) days; or (b) Seller elects not to cause such exceptions to be
removed. If Seller fails to give such notice timely to Buyer, Seller shall have been deemed to
have given notice to Buyer under clause (b). The procurement by Seller of a commitment of the
Title Company to issue a title policy or an endorsement thereto insuring Buyer against any such
exceptions shall be deemed a removal of such exceptions by Seller. If Seller gives or is deemed to
have given notice under clause (b) above, Buyer shall have two (2) business days from the date on
which such notice to Buyer is given in which to notify Seller that Buyer will nevertheless proceed
with the purchase and take title to the Property subject to such exceptions or that Buyer will
terminate this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give such notice in a timely fashion, Buyer shall be
deemed to have elected to proceed with the purchase and take title to the Property subject to such
exceptions. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section,
then this Agreement shall be terminated in the same manner, and upon the same terms and conditions,
as if Buyer had given a Title Due Diligence Termination Notice under Section 5.2.1.

     6. Conditions to Closing.

          6.1  Seller’s Conditions. The obligation of Seller to sell and convey the
Property pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction on or before the Closing Date
(or such earlier date as is specifically set forth in this Agreement) of all of the following

additional days (after which time this Agreement shall automatically terminate if the condition is
not satisfied or waived by the end of this 30-day period), or terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice thereof to the other party. In the event of a termination under this Section, Buyer
shall pay all title, survey and escrow charges, Buyer shall deliver the Information to Seller, the
Title Company shall promptly pay the Deposit to Buyer, and neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any
further obligation or liability to each other, save and except for the Surviving Obligations.

          6.4 Satisfaction of Conditions. The occurrence of the Closing shall
constitute satisfaction of conditions set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 not otherwise specifically

          10.6 Buyer’s Investigation. (i) Except for the express representations and
warranties of Seller set forth herein, there are no representations or warranties of any kind

Property (including, without limitation, Buyer’s Inspections); (vii) Except for the express
representations and warranties of Seller set forth herein, Buyer shall purchase the Property in its

Buyer shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including but not limited to, defects and adverse
physical and environmental conditions, may not have been revealed by Buyer’s investigations, and
Buyer, upon Closing (except with respect to the express representations, warranties and covenants
of Seller set forth in this Agreement), shall be deemed to have waived, relinquished and released
the Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims that Buyer might have asserted or alleged
against the Indemnitees at any time by reason of or arising out of any latent or patent defects or
physical conditions, violations of any applicable laws and any and all other acts, omissions,
events, circumstances or matters regarding the Property. Buyer hereby waives the provisions of
California Civil Code section 1542 which provides that:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO
EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR
HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

     By initialing below, Buyer hereby waives the provisions of Section 1542 solely in connection
with the matters which are the subject of the foregoing waiver and release:

                    Buyer’s Initials:                                         

     11. Indemnification. In addition to Buyer’s other indemnity obligations
under this Agreement, Buyer agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitees
of and from any Claims (i) arising from any Inspections or other due diligence activities of Buyer
relating to the Property, excluding any Claims to the extent arising as a result of the mere
discovery by Buyer of a pre-existing condition that has a deleterious effect on the Property or
caused by Seller’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) arising from any act or omission of
Buyer, its agents, employees or contractors occurring on or after the Closing and that is not due
to any negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or Seller’s breach of the Leases; or (iii)
arising from any breach by Buyer of any obligation of Buyer in connection with the Property that by
this Agreement, or any closing delivery, specifically becomes the obligation of Buyer. The
foregoing provisions shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.

     12. Remedies.

 

          12.1 Liquidated Damages. FROM AND AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE, IN THE EVENT
THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY AS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER IS NOT CONSUMMATED DUE TO A DEFAULT OF BUYER,
THE DEPOSIT (INCLUDING ALL INTEREST EARNED FROM THE INVESTMENT OF THE DEPOSIT) SHALL BE PAID TO AND
RETAINED BY SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN
THE EVENT THAT THE SALE IS NOT CONSUMMATED WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO
DETERMINE. THEREFORE, BY SEPARATELY EXECUTING THIS SECTION BELOW, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE
NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT HAS BEEN AGREED UPON, AFTER NEGOTIATION, AS THE PARTIES’ REASONABLE ESTIMATE
OF SELLER’S DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN LAW OR IN EQUITY AGAINST BUYER IN THE EVENT
THE CLOSING DOES NOT OCCUR DUE TO THE DEFAULT OF BUYER AND AS SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
AGAINST BUYER ARISING FROM SUCH FAILURE OF THE SALE TO CLOSE. SUCH RECOVERY OF THE DEPOSIT BY
SELLER IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND
1677 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY
WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 3275 OR SECTION 3369 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OR ANY SIMILAR
PROVISION. IN ADDITION, BUYER SHALL PAY ALL TITLE, SURVEY AND ESCROW CANCELLATION CHARGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL THIS SECTION LIMIT THE DAMAGES RECOVERABLE BY
EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY DUE TO (A) THE OTHER PARTY’S OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY SUCH
PARTY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR (B) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. BY THEIR SEPARATELY EXECUTING
THIS SECTION BELOW, BUYER AND SELLER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE ABOVE
PROVISION COVERING LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, AND THAT EACH PARTY WAS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL WHO EXPLAINED
THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION AT THE TIME THIS AGREEMENT WAS EXECUTED.
BOTH PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT SAID AMOUNT IS PRESENTLY A REASONABLE SUM CONSIDERING ALL
OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING ON THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE SUM
TO THE RANGE OF HARM TO SELLER THAT REASONABLY COULD BE ANTICIPATED, AND THAT PROOF OF ACTUAL
DAMAGES WOULD BE COSTLY AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE.

          12.2 Seller’s Default. If Seller shall fail to convey the Property to Buyer
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and such failure constitutes a default by
Seller hereunder, Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies shall be either to (i) sue for specific
performance in connection with the acquisition of the Property, it being understood and agreed that
the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller
hereunder, or (ii) terminate this Agreement and obtain a refund of the Deposit and reimbursement
from Seller for Buyer’s documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with
the negotiation of this Agreement, Buyer’s diligence with respect to the Property, and Buyer’s
actions in furtherance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement up to (but not in excess
of) One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), which return and reimbursement shall operate to
terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder. Buyer shall be
deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Deposit if Buyer fails to
file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and
state in which the Property is located, on or before thirty (30) days following the date upon which
the Required Closing Date was to have occurred. Except for, and in consideration of, the foregoing
right of Buyer to sue for specific performance, or alternatively, to obtain a refund of the Deposit
and

 

reimbursement of Buyer’s documented and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
performing its inspections, investigations and other due diligence review of the Property, Buyer
hereby waives any other remedies available at law or in equity. Buyer expressly waives its rights
to seek damages if the Closing does not occur in the event of Seller’s default hereunder.

                    Buyer’s Initials:                                         

          12.3 Limitations on Seller’s Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE
CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER OR ANY OTHER INDEMNITEE BE LIABLE TO
BUYER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY
DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CLOSING DOCUMENT OTHER THAN ANY
INTENTIONAL OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION BY SELLER. IN ADDITION, IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER OR ANY
OTHER INDEMNITEE BE LIABLE TO BUYER UNLESS AND UNTIL THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES FOR WHICH
SELLER IS OBLIGATED TO BUYER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT EXCEEDS THE SUM OF ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($100,000.00) (THE “BASE AMOUNT”) WHEREUPON SELLER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ALL SUCH DAMAGES,
INCLUDING THE BASE AMOUNT, BUT IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER BE LIABLE TO BUYER FOR ANY DAMAGES TO THE
BUYER IN EXCESS OF THE SUM OF ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00).

                    Buyer’s Initials:                                         

          12.4 Waiver. Buyer hereby acknowledges that it has read and is familiar
with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which is set forth below: By
initialing below, Buyer hereby waives the provisions of Section 1542 solely in connection with the
matters which are the subject of the foregoing waivers and releases:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO
EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR
HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

                    Buyer’s Initials:                                         

          12.5 Survival. All of the foregoing waivers and releases by Buyer set forth
in this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

     13. Casualty; Condemnation.

          13.1 Casualty. If, prior to the Closing, any part of the Improvements is
damaged or destroyed by earthquake, flood, fire or other casualty, Seller shall promptly notify
Buyer in writing of such casualty loss. If the damage caused by such casualty is estimated to cost
more than Seven Million Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500,000.00) in the aggregate to repair (as
verified by contractor(s) and/or vendor(s) selected by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Buyer),
then within ten (10) days after Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice of the damage, Buyer shall
deliver written notice to Seller and the Title Company, electing either to (i) proceed with this
transaction and Closing in accordance with this Agreement notwithstanding such damage; or (ii)
terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall terminate and promptly upon such
termination, Buyer shall deliver to Seller all Information and Property Information and Buyer shall
pay all title, survey and escrow charges and the balance of the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer.
Buyer’s failure to deliver either such notice to Seller and Title Company within such ten (10)
day-period shall constitute Buyer’s election to proceed to Closing. If Buyer elects (or is deemed
to have elected) not to terminate this Agreement or if the damage is estimated to cost $7,500,000
or less in the

 

aggregate, then the Closing shall nevertheless occur as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
except that Seller shall assign to Buyer upon the Closing all insurance proceeds paid or payable to
Seller (but not in excess of the Purchase Price), if any, in connection with such occurrences (net
of any deductibles carried by Seller); and Seller shall have no obligation to repair such damage or
destruction.

          13.2 Condemnation. In the event that all or any substantial portion of the
Real Property shall be taken in condemnation or under the right of eminent domain after the
Effective Date and before the Closing, Buyer may, at its option either (i) terminate this Agreement
by written notice thereof to Seller, whereupon Buyer shall pay all title, survey and escrow
charges, Buyer shall deliver the Information to Seller, and the Title Company shall promptly return
to Buyer the Deposit, together with any interest earned thereon, or (ii) proceed to close the
transaction contemplated herein pursuant to the terms hereof in which event Seller shall assign and
turn over to Buyer, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking by
eminent domain which accrue to Seller and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. For
purposes of this provision, a “substantial portion” of the Property shall mean (a) more than ten
percent (10%) of the Property is taken; or (b) the access to the Property is materially reduced or
restricted. In the event that a portion of the Property less than a substantial portion is taken,
or Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall proceed to close the transaction
contemplated herein and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign
and turn over to Buyer and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking by
eminent domain which accrue to Seller.

     14. Brokerage Commissions. Buyer shall pay a real estate commission to
Cushman and Wakefield (“Buyer’s Broker”) upon Closing, in accordance with a separate broker’s
commission agreement between Buyer’s Broker and Buyer. Seller shall pay such real estate
commission, if any, as may be due to any third party broker, other than Buyer’s Broker, to whom a
commission with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property to Buyer is owed by reason of
commitments made by Seller. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from any and all
commissions claimed by any broker or third party relating to this Agreement arising or alleged to
arise by reason of commitments made by Buyer. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer
from any and all commissions claimed by any broker or third party relating to this Agreement
arising or alleged to arise by reason of commitments made by Seller. The obligations of indemnity
of Buyer and Seller as contained in this Section shall survive the Closing or the earlier
expiration or termination of this Agreement.

     15. Leasing of Property. Pending the Closing or earlier termination of this
Agreement, Seller may, but shall not be required to, solicit, negotiate and enter into leases of
the Buildings or portions thereof. Seller shall not execute and deliver any such lease without
Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
The parties may enter into such agreements and arrangements relating to the leasing of the
Property, including (without limitation) as to lease commissions and tenant improvement or other
costs, as the parties may mutually determine to be appropriate.

     16. Disposition of Property Within One Year. In the event that, at any time
prior to the first anniversary of the Closing, there is any Disposition (as defined below in this
Section) or any agreement or arrangement for the making of a Disposition, Buyer shall pay to Seller
fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Disposition Proceeds (as defined below in this Section) of the
Disposition. “Disposition” shall mean and include any and each direct or indirect sale, exchange,
transfer or other disposition of the Property or of any interest therein, which shall include
(without limitation) the transfer of any partnership or membership interest or stock or other
security of any entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in the Property or a portion
thereof, and any sale, transfer or other disposition by way of merger, sale of assets or otherwise;
provided, however, that in no event shall “Disposition” include (a) any direct or indirect transfer
of ownership interests in an entity securities of which are traded on a registered securities

 

exchange and (b) any direct or indirect transfers of ownership interests in an operating
partnership which holds all or substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by an
entity securities of which are traded on a registered securities exchange. “Excess Disposition
Proceeds” shall mean and include the amount by which (a) the total sale price or other
consideration received by Buyer in respect of the Disposition (without reduction for brokerage
commissions, attorneys’ fees or other amounts) exceeds (b) the Purchase Price herein
stated. In the event of any Disposition of less than the entirety of the Property and the
interests there, the amount of the Excess Disposition Proceeds shall be determined on an equitable,
proportionate basis. For any Disposition of a portion of the Property, such proportionate basis
shall be established by reference to the building area included within the portion of the Property
involved in the Disposition, and for any Disposition of a partial ownership interest in all or a
portion of the Property, such proportionate basis shall be determined by reference to the
percentage interest transferred. The provisions of this Section shall apply in respect of any and
all Dispositions made as provided above, whether by Buyer or any successor or assign of Buyer, or
by an owner or successor or assign of any direct or indirect ownership interest of an entity having
an interest in the Property. Buyer shall, upon Seller’s request made either in connection with
(and as a condition to) Closing or at any time thereafter, execute, acknowledge and deliver for
recordation an instrument sufficient to give record notice of the rights of Seller set forth in
this Section. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing.

     17. Leases. At Closing, Seller and Buyer shall cause the Leases to be
executed and delivered.

     18. Notices. Any notice or report required or desired to be given regarding
this Agreement shall be in writing and may be given by personal delivery, by certified mail return
receipt requested, by courier service or by facsimile (provided such notice is also given by
personal delivery or courier service). Any notice or report addressed to Buyer or Seller at their
respective addresses set forth below shall be deemed to have been given (i) when personally

also sent on the same date by certified mail or overnight courier. For this purpose, a “business
day” shall be a day on which such reputable overnight carrier has regularly scheduled delivery
(excluding Saturdays and federally recognized holidays). Each notice to Buyer shall be given to:

     19. Miscellaneous.

          19.1 Time. Time is of the essence of each and every term, provision and
covenant of this Agreement. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, the expiration of any
period of time prescribed in this Agreement shall occur at 11:59 p.m. of the last day of the
period. Should any period of time prescribed herein end on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday
(recognized in Newark, California), the period of time shall automatically be extended to 11:59
p.m. (or such other time as is expressly provided herein) of the next full business day.

          19.2 No Waiver. No waiver by any party of the performance or satisfaction
of any covenant or condition shall be valid unless in writing and shall not be considered to be a
waiver by such party of any other covenant or condition hereunder.

          19.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between
the parties regarding the Property and supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral,
between the parties regarding the same subject. This Agreement shall not be modified by either
party by any oral representation made before or after the execution of this Agreement, and all
modifications must be in writing signed by Seller and Buyer.

          19.4 Assignment; Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators and successors and assigns of Seller
and Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer shall not, prior to the Closing, assign Buyer’s rights and
obligations pursuant to this Agreement to any party, other than an entity wholly owned, directly or
indirectly, by BioMed Realty, L.P., including, without limitation, BMR-7777 Gateway Boulevard LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company (provided such limited liability company is so owned).

          19.5 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall not merge with the
delivery of the Deed but shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, survive the
Closing.

          19.6 Severability. In the case that any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement are for any reason held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein.

 

          19.7 Captions. Paragraph titles or captions contained in this Agreement are
inserted as a matter of convenience only and for reference, and in no way define, limit, extend or
describe the scope of this Agreement.

          19.8 Exhibits. All exhibits attached hereto shall be incorporated herein by
reference as if set out herein in full.

          19.9 Relationship of the Parties. The parties acknowledge that neither
party is an agent for the other party, and that neither party shall or can bind or enter into
agreements for the other party.

          19.10 Governing Law. This Agreement and the legal relations between the
parties hereto shall be governed by and be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California.

          19.11 Review by Counsel. The parties acknowledge that each party and its
counsel have reviewed and approved this Agreement, and the parties hereby agree 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 amendments or exhibits
hereto.

          19.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original. This Agreement shall only be effective if a counterpart is
signed by both Seller and Buyer.

          19.13 Filing of Reports. The Title Company shall be solely responsible for
the timely filing of any reports or returns required pursuant to the provisions of Section 6045(e)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (and any similar reports or returns required under
any state or local laws) in connection with the Closing.

          19.14 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the benefit of Buyer
and Seller and their respective shareholders, partners and successors and no third party shall be
entitled to the benefit of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

          19.15 Facsimile Signatures. Seller and Buyer each (i) has agreed to permit
the use from time to time, where appropriate, of telecopy signatures in order to expedite the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) intends to be bound by its respective telecopy
signature, (iii) is aware that the other will rely on the telecopied signature, and (iv)
acknowledges such reliance and waives any defenses to the enforcement of this Agreement and the
documents affecting the transaction contemplated by this Agreement based on the fact that a
signature was sent by telecopy only.

          19.16 Mutual Cooperation. Each party hereto agrees to execute, acknowledge
and deliver or to cause to have executed, acknowledged and delivered, such other and further
instruments and documents as may reasonably be requested by the other to carry out this Agreement.
Each party hereto shall use its good faith efforts to cause satisfaction of all conditions to its
obligation under this Agreement, and to exercise good faith in fulfilling its obligations under
this Agreement.

          19.17 Confidentiality. Buyer agrees that, except with the prior written
consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, it will
keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential through the end of the Due Diligence
Period, and if this Agreement is terminated, Buyer further agrees that, except with such consent,
it will keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential for a period of one (1) year
following such termination. This

 

Section imposes no obligation with respect to any such information which: (a) is in the public
domain through no fault of Buyer, (b) was properly known to Buyer, without restriction, prior to
disclosure by the other party, or was properly disclosed to Buyer by another person without
restriction, (c) was developed by Buyer without the use of such information, or (d) is required to
be disclosed pursuant to any applicable statutory or regulatory provision, or court order.

          19.18 Public Company Requirements. Upon Buyer’s request, for a period of
one (1) year after Closing, Seller shall make any books and records of the Property remaining in
possession of Seller available to Buyer for inspection, copying and audit by Buyer’s designated
accountants, at Buyer’s expense, if and as reasonably required to enable Buyer to comply with
applicable filing requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Seller agrees to provide
to Buyer’s accounting firm, upon Buyer’s written request, a letter in the form of Exhibit G
hereto in connection with such firm’s audit of Buyer’s operating statement for the Project in the
year in which Closing occurs.

     20. Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE
PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
