 Exhibit 10.1 

AIR LEASE CORPORATION 

ANNUAL CASH BONUS PLAN 
  

	1.	 Purpose. 

The purpose of the Air Lease Corporation Annual Cash Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide annual cash awards (“Incentive
Awards”) to certain officers of Air Lease Corporation (the “Corporation”) that recognize and reward the achievement of individual and corporate performance goals. 

The Plan and any individual award are offered gratuitously at the sole discretion of the Corporation. The Plan is intended to serve as a
general guide for determining individual awards, and does not create vested rights of any nature nor does it constitute a contract of employment, a promise for earned income, or a contract of any other kind. Determination of a specific award amount
does not create an earned or vested right in any Participant (as defined below) to payment. Except as expressly provided in Section 7 of this Plan, any award granted under this Plan is earned on the date on which such award is paid. Nothing in
the Plan restricts the Corporation’s rights to increase or decrease the compensation of any Participant, except as otherwise required under applicable law. 
  

	2.	 Effective Date of Plan. 

The Plan shall be effective as of January 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). 

 

	3.	 Plan Administration. 

The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
“Board”), provided that the Committee may by resolution authorize one or more officers of the Corporation to perform any or all things that the Committee is authorized and empowered to do or perform under the Plan, and for all purposes
under this Plan, such officer or officers shall be treated as the Committee; provided, however, that (1) the Committee shall administer the Plan with respect to the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chairman and the other
executive officers of the Corporation who are subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and there shall be no delegation of any of the Committee’s authority under the Plan with respect to the Chief Executive Officer,
Executive Chairman and such other executive officers of the Corporation, and (2) the resolution so authorizing such officer or officers shall specify the maximum aggregate dollar amount of all Incentive Awards such officer or officers may award
pursuant to such delegated authority. No such officer shall designate himself or herself as a recipient of any Incentive Awards granted under authority delegated to such officer. 

 The Committee shall have full power and authority, subject to the provisions of the Plan and
applicable law, to (a) determine the eligible Participants and their target percentages; (b) determine the individual and/or corporate performance criteria and the performance goals and the relative weightings of each criterion;
(c) establish, amend, suspend or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents as it deems necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the Plan; (d) construe, interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or
agreement relating to the Plan; and (e) make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, each determination made and each action
taken by the Committee pursuant to the Plan or any instrument or agreement relating to the Plan (a) shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee, (b) may be made at any time, and (c) shall be final, binding and conclusive for
all purposes on all persons, including, but not limited to, Participants in the Plan, their legal representatives and beneficiaries and employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. 

The foregoing means, for instance, that the same individual performance and/or company performance in different performance periods could
result in vastly different Incentive Award payouts. Because the amount of any award is wholly within the Committee’s discretion, the following terms and conditions serve only as a general guide for determining amounts payable pursuant to the
Plan, if any. 
  

	4.	 Eligibility. 

All officers of the Corporation and its subsidiaries (other than those officers who are participants in another annual cash bonus plan that
may be established by the Corporation for such officers) are eligible to participate in the Plan, but only if designated by the Committee in its sole discretion (each, a “Participant”). 

 

	5.	 Incentive Awards. 

Participants under this Plan have the opportunity to receive a cash payment subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan and the
attainment of performance goals established under Section 6. The Incentive Award will be based on a specified percentage, as determined by the Committee, of a Participant’s annual base salary (the “Target Incentive Award”);
provided that the Committee shall retain discretion to reduce or to increase the amount of the Incentive Award otherwise payable to any one or more Participants under this Plan and to decline to make any one or more Incentive Awards. The Committee
may exercise such discretion on any basis it deems appropriate (including, but not limited to, its assessment of the Corporation’s performance relative to its operating or strategic goals for the performance period and/or a Participant’s
individual performance for such period). 
  

	6.	 Performance Criteria and Performance Goals. 

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, performance goals and performance criteria (both individual and corporate) for each performance
period shall be established by the Committee not later than 90 days after commencement of the performance period for which the Incentive Award is being granted. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the performance period shall be the
Corporation’s fiscal year. 

	7.	 Determination & Payment of Awards. 

7.1. As soon as practicable after the end of the performance period, the Committee will determine the amount of the Incentive
Award to be paid to each Participant, based on the attainment of the performance goals as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion and after giving effect to Section 7.2. The Committee shall adjust the performance goals and other
provisions applicable to Incentive Awards to the extent, if any, it determines that the adjustment is necessary or advisable to preserve the intended incentives and benefits to reflect (a) any material change in corporate capitalization, any
material corporate transaction (such as a reorganization, combination, separation, merger, acquisition, or any combination of the foregoing), or any complete or partial liquidation of the Corporation, (b) any change in accounting policies or
practices, (c) the effects of any special charges to the Corporation’s earnings, or (d) any other similar special circumstances as determined in its sole discretion. 

7.2. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the amount of an Incentive Award shall be
pro-rated for any Participant who was on a leave of absence during the performance period, any Participant who was not employed as of the beginning of the performance period, any Participant who was promoted
during the performance period, and any change in Participant’s annual base salary during the performance period. 
 7.3.
Payments will be made as soon as reasonably practical after determination of the amounts of the Incentive Awards, if any, by the Committee (but in no event later than the expiration of the short-term deferral period set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4)). Except as provided in this Section 7, a Participant does not earn, and shall have no right to receive, any award payment under this Plan until that award is paid. 

7.4. Except as provided in this Section 7, the payment of an Incentive Award to a Participant with respect to a
performance period shall be conditioned upon a Participant’s employment by the Corporation on the payment date for such Incentive Award. 

7.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the following provisions shall apply upon
certain terminations of a Participant’s employment by the Corporation. To the extent that a Participant is entitled to an additional (or greater) Incentive Award payment in connection with any termination of employment pursuant to the terms of
an Individual Agreement, the terms of the Individual Agreement shall apply instead of the terms set forth below. 
 7.5.1. In
the event of a Participant’s termination of employment by reason of the Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement (each as defined below), the Participant (or his or her beneficiary or estate) shall be eligible to receive a prorated
Incentive Award for the year of termination, based on actual performance for the applicable performance period. Such prorated Incentive Award shall be paid at the time such awards are paid to other Participants, and in all events no later than the
expiration of the short-term deferral period set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4). 

 7.5.2. In the event of a Participant’s termination of employment by the
Corporation without Cause (as defined below), other than within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control (as defined below), the Participant shall be eligible to receive a pro-rated Incentive
Award for the year of termination, based on actual performance for the applicable performance period. Such prorated Incentive Award shall be paid at the time such awards are paid to other Participants, and in all events no later than the expiration
of the short-term deferral period set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4). 

7.5.3. In the event of a Participant’s termination of employment by the Corporation without Cause or by the Participant
for Good Reason, in each case, within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control (as defined below), the Participant shall be entitled to receive an Incentive Award equal to a prorated portion of the Participant’s Target
Incentive Award for the year of termination. Such prorated Target Incentive Award shall be paid as soon as reasonably practicable following the Participant’s termination of employment, and in all events no later than thirty (30) days after
the Participant’s termination of employment. 
 7.6. For purposes of the Plan, the following definitions shall apply.

 7.6.1. “Good Reason” shall mean, unless otherwise consented to by the Participant: 

(i) “Good Reason” as defined in any Individual Agreement; 

(ii) the material reduction of the Participant’s authority, duties and responsibilities, or the assignment to the Participant of duties
materially inconsistent with the Participant’s position or positions with the Corporation; 
 (iii) a reduction in the annual base
salary of the Participant; or 
 (iv) the relocation of the Participant’s office to more than thirty-five (35) miles from the
principal offices of the Corporation. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Good Reason (A) shall not be deemed to
exist unless the Participant provides to the Corporation a notice of termination on account thereof (specifying a termination date not less than thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice) no later
than thirty (30) days after the time at which the event or condition purportedly giving rise to Good Reason first occurs or arises, and (B) shall not be deemed to exist at 

 
any time at which there exists an event or condition which could serve as the basis of a termination of the Participant’s employment for Cause; and (ii) if there exists (without regard
to this clause (ii)) an event or condition that constitutes Good Reason, the Corporation shall have thirty (30) days from the date such notice of termination is given to cure such event or condition and, if the Corporation does so, such event
or condition shall not constitute Good Reason hereunder. 
 7.6.2. “Cause” shall have the same meaning as defined
in the Equity Plan. 
 7.6.3. “Change in Control” shall have the same meaning as defined in the Equity Plan. 

7.6.4. “Disability” shall have the same meaning as defined in the Equity Plan. 

7.6.5. “Equity Plan” means the Corporation’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan or any successor omnibus equity
incentive plan then in effect. 
 7.6.6. “Individual Agreement” shall have the same meaning as defined in the
Equity Plan. 
 7.6.7. “Retirement” shall mean a termination of a Participant’s employment (other than by the
Corporation for Cause) (i) at or after age 65 and (ii) after 5 years of service to the Corporation. 
  

	8.	 Termination, Suspension or Modification of the Plan. 

The Committee may at any time, with or without notice, terminate, suspend, or modify the Plan in whole or in part, prospectively or
retroactively without notice or obligation for any reason (subject to applicable law and the discretion of the Committee to take any of the foregoing action at any time and from time to time with respect to Participants). In addition, there is no
obligation to extend the Plan or establish a replacement plan in subsequent years. The Committee may also correct any defect or any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry
the Plan into effect. 
  

	9.	 Miscellaneous. 

9.1. No Assignments. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no award under this Plan shall be subject in any manner to
anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution, or levy of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary, including any such liability which is for alimony or other payments for the support of a
spouse or former spouse, or for any other relative of a Participant prior to actually being received by the Participant or his/her designated beneficiary, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge encumber, charge, or
otherwise dispose of any right to such award shall be void. 

 9.2. No Right of Employment or Future Incentive Awards. Neither the adoption
of the Plan, the determination of eligibility to participate in the Plan for any performance period, nor the granting or payment of an Incentive Award under the Plan shall confer upon any Participant (i) any right to continue in the employ of
the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or to interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or the subsidiary to terminate such employment at any time or (ii) any right to be granted or paid an Incentive Award for any future
performance period. 
 9.3. Tax Withholding. Amounts payable under the Plan are subject to withholding for taxes as required
by applicable law. 
 9.4. Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations under the Plan shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 
 9.5. Other Plans. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as
limiting the authority of the Committee, the Board, the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation to establish any other compensation plan, or as in any way limiting its or their authority to pay bonuses or supplemental compensation to any
persons employed by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, whether or not such person is a Participant in this Plan and regardless of how the amount of such compensation or bonuses is determined. 

9.6. Section 409A of the Code. The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or an
exemption or exclusion therefrom and, with respect to amounts that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, shall in all respects be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. If a Participant dies following the date of
termination and prior to the payment of any amounts delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be paid to the personal representative of the Participant’s estate, or if the Participant has entered into an employment
agreement with the Corporation pursuant to such agreement, within thirty (30) days after the date of the Participant’s death. 

9.7. Recoupment. Any Incentive Award shall be subject to any recoupment policies as may be adopted by the Corporation from time
to time, including but not limited to for the purpose of complying with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and regulations thereunder promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission. 

9.8. Payment from General Assets. The Plan shall not be funded in any way. The Corporation shall not be required to establish
any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to assure the payment of Incentive Awards. To the extent any person acquires a right to receive payment under the Plan, such right will be no greater than the right of an
unsecured general creditor of the Corporation. 
 Adopted by the Board of Directors November 7, 2018 and Effective January 1, 2019Exhibit

10

2.2    Purchase Price.
(a)    The aggregate consideration for the LLC Interests shall be an amount equal to the Final NAV (the “Purchase Price”) as set forth in the Final NAV Statement, which shall be payable by the Purchasers to the Seller in accordance with this Section 2.2, Section 2.6, and Section 3.1.  The amount payable by the Purchasers to the Seller on the Closing Date shall be the Estimated NAV less the amount of the Escrowed Deposit (which, as part of Closing, shall be paid to the Seller as provided in Section 2.5).
(b)    The Parties agree that for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, the purchase of the LLC Interests shall be treated as the purchase of the Projects.  The Parties further agree to allocate the Estimated NAV, the Bank Payoff Amount, any assumed liabilities and any other amounts treated as consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes among the Projects that are treated as transferred to the Purchasers in accordance with the rules under Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “US Tax Allocation”).  Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Purchasers shall prepare and deliver to the Seller an initial draft of the US Tax Allocation.  The Seller shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to provide the Purchasers with a statement of any disputed items with respect to such US Tax Allocation.  If the Purchasers and the Seller agree on the US Tax Allocation, then the Sellers and the Purchasers shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) report consistently with the US Tax Allocation on all Tax Returns, and neither the Seller nor the Purchasers shall (or shall permit their Affiliates to) take any position on any Tax Return that is inconsistent with the US Tax Allocation, unless required by a Taxing authority.  If the disputed items are not resolved by the Seller and the Purchasers within thirty (30) days following the Seller’s submission of its statement of disputed items, then each of the Purchasers and the Seller shall use their own US Tax Allocation.  The Seller and the Purchasers shall make appropriate adjustments to the US Tax Allocation to reflect the Final NAV.  Subject to the foregoing, (i) the Final NAV shall be used for all Tax purposes under this Agreement, including for federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes in accordance with applicable U.S. federal Tax law and analogous provisions of applicable foreign laws, and (ii) Seller and the Purchasers shall file all Tax Returns and related Tax documents consistent with the Final NAV, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any Tax Returns filed by an Owner shall reflect the books and accounts of such Owner and need not be consistent with the Final NAV or the value of the LLC Interests as reflected therein, to the extent applicable.  
(c)    The Purchasers shall pay, at or immediately prior to Closing, on behalf of the respective Owner, in respect of the existing financings encumbering the Projects described on Exhibit E attached hereto (the “Existing Mortgages”) the Bank Payoff Amount as set forth in and as directed by the Bank Payoff Statements.
2.3    Polish Portfolio.  The Purchasers and Seller acknowledge and agree that, subject only to the terms of this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement,  it is the express agreement and understanding of the Purchasers and Seller that, as a material inducement to Seller and the Purchasers to enter into this Agreement (and to cause the Polish Sellers and the Polish Purchasers to enter into the Polish Purchase Agreement), the Purchasers and Polish Purchasers have agreed to purchase, and Seller and the Polish Sellers have agreed to sell, all of the LLC Interests 

11

and the entirety of the Polish Projects (together, the “Portfolio”), subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and of the Polish Purchase Agreement, which reflect an aggregate agreed property value of EUR 450,000,000 (the “Portfolio Purchase Price”) (which amount may be adjusted as set forth  herein and under the Polish Purchase Agreement).
2.4    Escrowed Deposit.  
(a)    Deposit. Within two (2) Business Days after the Effective Date, the Purchasers shall deposit with the Escrow Agent, in immediately available funds, the sum of EUR 25,000,000 (increased by any interest accrued thereon, the “Escrowed Deposit”), of which EUR 22,500,000 shall be deposited by the Majority Purchaser and EUR 2,500,000 shall be deposited by the Minority Purchaser, which will be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Undertaking and this Agreement as security for the performance by the Purchasers of their obligations under this Agreement. If the Purchasers fail to deposit all or any portion of the Escrowed Deposit with the Escrow Agent within the time period described above, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and if this Agreement terminates, the Polish Purchase Agreement shall also automatically terminate.  The Escrowed Deposit shall be (i) paid to the Seller at the Closing hereunder or (ii) otherwise disbursed as provided herein.  Each Party agrees and covenants to promptly deliver such written instructions, joint or otherwise, to the Escrow Agent as are required to effect the release of the Escrowed Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
(b)    If, except in connection with the payment of the Escrowed Deposit to the Seller at Closing, the Escrow Agent receives written notice from either Purchaser or Seller, or both, setting forth the identity of the Party to whom the Escrowed Deposit is to be disbursed and further setting forth the specific section or paragraph of this Agreement pursuant to which the disbursement of the Escrowed Deposit is being requested, the Parties agree that notwithstanding the terms of the Escrow Undertaking the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Deposit pursuant to such notice; provided, however, that if such notice is given by either the Purchasers or Seller but not both, the Escrow Agent shall (i) promptly notify the other Party (either Seller or the Purchasers, as the case may be) that the Escrow Agent has received a request for disbursement, and (ii) withhold disbursement of the Escrowed Deposit for a period of five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice of disbursement and if the Escrow Agent receives written notice from either the Purchasers or the Seller within said five (5) Business Day period which notice countermands the earlier notice of disbursement, then the Escrow Agent shall withhold such disbursement until both the Purchasers and Seller can agree upon a disbursement of the Escrowed Deposit.  The Purchasers and Seller each hereby agree to send to the other, pursuant to Section 10.1 below, a duplicate copy of any written notice sent to the Escrow Agent and requesting such disbursement or countermanding a request for disbursement.
2.5    Method of Payment of Purchase Price.  On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement:  (a) the Purchasers will direct the Escrow Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Undertaking, to pay to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be designated by Seller the Escrowed Deposit, (b) the Purchasers will pay to the Sellers the Estimated NAV less the Escrowed Deposit, less any costs or other amounts to be paid by the Purchasers (on behalf of the Seller) or by the Seller 

12

at Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (c) the Purchasers will pay to all appropriate payees the other costs and amounts to be paid by the Purchasers at Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including the Bank Payoff Amount, and (d) the Seller will pay to the appropriate payees out of the proceeds of Closing payable to Seller all costs and amounts to be paid by Seller at Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
2.6    Adjustments to the Purchase Price.

Any Rentals in respect of periods ending on or before the Closing Date and that are detailed on the list delivered by the Seller pursuant to the foregoing sentence that are received (net of Owner’s reasonable costs of collection) from any Applicable Tenant after the Closing Date shall be applied in the following order of priority (without duplication): (A) first, to Rentals due and payable by such Tenant with respect to all periods after the Closing, and (B) second, to Rental arrearages owing by such Tenant with respect to all periods on or prior to the Closing.  Any Rentals received directly or indirectly by each Owner or Seller following the Closing Date which are the property of the other, shall be paid to the other within five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof.  In no event shall the Purchaser or the Owners have any liability for failure to collect delinquent Rentals, and in no event shall the Purchaser be obligated to, and the Purchaser shall not be obligated to cause any Owner to, and in no event shall the Seller, institute any legal, eviction or similar proceedings to enforce collection of delinquent Rentals against any Tenant, take any action to terminate any Tenant’s Lease or take any other action that would adversely affect the occupancy of any Tenant under its Lease with regard to delinquencies. 
(ii)    With respect to specific tenant billings for work orders and special items performed or provided at the request of a given Tenant that are collected by an Owner, Purchaser or the Seller after the Closing Date but that relate to any such specific services rendered prior to the Closing and that are identified on the Tenant’s payment as relating to such specific services (or which are clearly identifiable as being payment for any such specific services), the Purchasers shall cause such collected amounts to be paid to the Seller, or the Seller may retain such payment if such payment is received by the Seller after the Closing Date; provided, that the Purchasers shall have no liability for failure to collect any such amounts and the Purchasers shall not be required to conduct lockouts or take any other legal action to enforce collection of any such amounts owed by any Tenant with respect to any 

13

such specific services; provided, further, that the Seller shall not pursue any remedies against any Tenants for such specific tenant billing. 
(b)    Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to the Purchasers a draft of the Final NAV Statement prepared in accordance with Exhibit P.  Purchasers shall cooperate with Seller in connection with its preparation of the Final NAV Statement, including by promptly delivering to Seller any work papers, invoices, correspondence or other information necessary for the calculation of the Final NAV in possession of the Purchasers or the Owners from and after Closing.  In order to facilitate the Purchasers’ review of the draft Final NAV Statement, Seller shall promptly provide the Purchasers with calculations and work papers or other reasonably requested information prepared by the preparer of the draft Final NAV Statement and Seller shall make its personnel or accountants reasonably available to Seller and their accountants to discuss such matters.  The Seller and Purchasers agree to comply with their respective obligations under Exhibit P for the preparation and agreement of the draft Final NAV Statement and for the settlement of any adjustments to the Purchase Price to permit Seller to timely deliver the draft Final NAV Statement.
(c)    The Purchasers may object to the draft Final NAV Statement by delivering written notice of objection to Seller within sixty (60) days following delivery of the draft Final NAV Statement.

If they are unable to do so within fifteen (15) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of the Purchasers’ notice of objection, then the matters remaining in dispute (and no other matters) will be promptly submitted to arbitration in accordance with the following provisions:

In the event that the two arbitrators appointed by (or on behalf of) the Parties are unable to agree on the choice of a third arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the date of the appointment of the last of such two arbitrators, then such third arbitrator shall be appointed upon the

(iii)    The Accountants shall base their review solely on the written statements prepared by the Parties and supporting documents provided by the Parties and not on an independent examination or audit of the financial or accounting records of the Owners.  In resolving any individual disputed matter, the Accountants may not assign a dollar amount or value to such matter that is more than the greatest amount or value, or less than the lowest amount or value, proposed by the Parties in their written statements submitted to the Accountants.  The resolution of the dispute shall be determined by the concurrence of two (2) of the three (3) Accountants and must be rendered within thirty (30) days after the last of the three (3) Accountants is appointed pursuant to subsection (d)(i) above.  The resolution by the Accountants of the matters referred to them for determination, as set forth in a written notice to be delivered to Seller and Purchaser by the Accountants, will be conclusive and binding on the Parties.  Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accountants in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced.  Seller and Purchaser will mutually revise the draft Final NAV Statement to reflect the resolution of the matters in dispute.
(iv)    Purchaser and Seller shall each bear the cost of the Accountant they appoint and one‐half of the cost of the third Accountant’s fees and expenses.

(f)    The Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for the determination of the adjustments to the Estimated NAV in accordance with this Section 2.6. 

15

If this Agreement is so terminated, then the Purchasers shall be entitled to receive a refund of the Escrowed Deposit and no Party shall have any further obligations hereunder, other than obligations that expressly survive termination hereof. 

23

(b)    Subject to Section 3.6(c), if by the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Long Stop Date (i) any condition precedent to Seller’s obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(b) is not satisfied, (ii) all conditions precedent to the Purchaser’s obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(a) are satisfied, and (iii) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.5(c) are satisfied, then Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to the Purchasers and the Escrow Agent, in which event Seller shall cause the Polish Sellers to also terminate the Polish Purchase Agreement.  Subject to Section 3.6(c), if by the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Long Stop Date (i) any condition precedent to the Purchasers’ obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(a) is not satisfied, (ii) all conditions precedent to the Seller’s obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(b) are satisfied, and (iii) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.5(c) are satisfied, then the Purchasers shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to Seller and the Escrow Agent, in which event the Purchasers shall cause their Affiliates to cause the Polish Purchasers to also terminate the Polish Purchase Agreement.  If this Agreement is terminated by either the Seller or the Purchasers pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6(b), then, subject to Section 3.6(c), the Party that so terminated this Agreement shall be entitled to receive the Escrowed Deposit and no Party shall have any further obligations hereunder, other than obligations that expressly survive termination hereof.  Subject to Section 3.6(c), if by the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Long Stop Date, (i) any condition precedent to the Purchasers’ obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(a) is not satisfied, (ii) any condition precedent to the Seller’s obligation to effect the Closing as set forth in Section 3.5(b) is not satisfied, and (iii) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.5(c) are satisfied, then either Party may terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to the other Party and to Escrow Agent, in which event such terminating Party shall cause, as the case may be, the Polish Purchasers or Polish Sellers to also terminate the Polish Purchase Agreement.  If this Agreement is so terminated, then the Purchasers shall be entitled to receive a refund of the Escrowed Deposit and no Party shall have any further obligations hereunder, other than obligations that expressly survive termination hereof.  
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the applicable conditions precedent are not satisfied due to a default by Seller or the Purchasers hereunder, then Section 3.7 shall govern and this Section 3.6 shall not apply.
3.7    Default.  
(a)    Default by Seller.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Closing of the purchase and sale transaction provided for herein does not occur as herein provided (time being of the essence) by reason of any default by Seller hereunder or a default by Polish Sellers under the Polish Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers may, as their sole and exclusive remedies, elect by written notice to Seller, within five (5) Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date, either (a) to terminate this Agreement and to cause their Affiliates to cause the Polish Purchasers to terminate the Polish Purchase Agreement, in which event the Purchasers shall receive from the Escrow Agent the Escrowed Deposit and the Polish Purchasers shall receive the Polish Deposit pursuant to the Polish Purchase Agreement, whereupon Seller and the Purchasers will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement and the Polish Sellers and Polish Purchasers will have no further rights or obligations under the Polish Purchase 

24

Agreement, except those obligations that expressly survive termination hereof and the Polish Purchase Agreement, (b) proceed to Closing to the extent reasonably practicable, in which case Seller shall not be entitled to refuse to proceed to Closing unless the Purchasers are in default hereunder or any condition to Seller’s obligation to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 3.5(b) or Section 3.5(c) is not satisfied, or (c) postpone Closing to the date which is not later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date (but in no event beyond the Long Stop Date), and, in any event, the Purchasers (for themselves and on behalf of the Polish Purchasers) hereby waive all other remedies against Seller or the Polish Sellers or their respective Affiliates, including any claim for damages of any type or kind including consequential or punitive damages.  If the Purchasers elect to postpone Closing pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.7, the provisions of this Agreement shall apply as if references to the Closing Date are to such postponed date (provided that Purchasers shall have no further right to postpone the Closing pursuant to this Section 3.7) and time shall be of the essence for the purposes of such postponed Closing.  Unless otherwise expressly required pursuant to this Agreement, in no event shall Seller be obligated to undertake any of the following: (A) change the condition of the Projects or restore the same after any fire or other casualty; (B) expend money or post a bond to remove or insure over any matter encumbering title to a Project; or (C) expend any money to repair, improve or alter a Project or any portion thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 3.7(a) will limit the Purchasers’ remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Seller of any of its obligations hereunder which expressly survive Closing or under any of the Closing Documents, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including Section ARTICLE IX, including Section 9.5.
(b)    Default By the Purchasers.  In the event the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein do not occur as provided herein (time being of the essence) by reason of any default of the Purchasers hereunder or of the Polish Purchasers under the Polish Purchase Agreement (a “Purchaser Default”), Purchaser and Seller agree it would be impractical and extremely difficult to fix the damages which Seller may suffer.  The Purchasers and Seller hereby agree that, in the event of a Purchaser Default, (i) an amount equal to the sum of the Escrowed Deposit and the Polish Deposit (the “Purchaser Default Amount”) is a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment Seller would suffer in the event of any such default and failure by the Purchasers and/or the Polish Purchasers to complete the purchase of the LLC Interests and/or the purchase of the Polish Projects, and (ii) provided that the Seller is not in material default hereunder, the Purchaser Default Amount shall be paid to Seller and will be the full, agreed and liquidated damages for the default and failure of the Purchasers and/or the Polish Purchasers to complete the purchase of the LLC Interests and/or the purchase of the Polish Projects, and will be Seller's sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity) for any such default of the Purchasers and/or the Polish Purchasers resulting in the failure of consummation of the Closing hereunder and/or under the Polish Purchase Agreement, whereupon this Agreement will terminate (and Seller will cause the Polish Sellers to terminate the Polish Purchase Agreement) and Seller and the Purchasers will have no further rights or obligations hereunder and the Polish Sellers and Polish Purchasers will have no further rights or obligations under the Polish Purchase Agreement, except with respect to obligations which expressly survive termination hereunder and the Polish Purchase Agreement; provided, that, in the event the Purchaser Default Amount is paid other than directly from the Escrowed Deposit and the Polish Deposit, the Purchasers shall be entitled to a refund of the Escrowed Deposit and the Polish Purchasers shall be entitled to a refund of the Polish Deposit, and the Seller 

25

shall, at the request of Purchasers, deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent to effect such refunds.  The Purchasers hereby waive and release any right to (and hereby covenant that they shall not) sue Seller or the Polish Sellers or seek or claim a refund of the Purchaser Default Amount on the grounds it is unreasonable in amount and exceeds the actual damages of Seller and the Polish Sellers or that its payment to the Seller and/or the Polish Sellers constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liquidated damages.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 3.7(b) will limit the remedies of Seller or the Polish Sellers at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by the Purchasers of any of its obligations hereunder which expressly survive Closing or under any of the Closing Documents.
(c)    Consequential and Punitive Damages.  Except with respect to consequential damages under Warranty Claims fully covered by the Insurance Policies, Seller and the Purchasers each waive any right to sue the other for any consequential or punitive damages for matters arising under this Agreement (it being understood that Seller and the Purchasers each have waived the right to obtain incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages in connection with any default of the Purchasers or Seller respectively, or otherwise, which, in the case of the Purchasers, include loss of profits or inability to secure lenders, investors or buyers).  
(d)    Cross Default / Remedies.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.7, (i) a default by Seller under this Agreement shall constitute a default by Polish Sellers under the Polish Purchase Agreement; (ii) a default by Polish Sellers under the Polish Purchase Agreement shall constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement; (iii) a default by the Purchasers under this Agreement shall constitute a default by Polish Purchasers under the Polish Purchase Agreement; (iv) a default by Polish Purchasers under the Polish Purchase Agreement shall constitute a default by the Purchasers under this Agreement; and (v) the non-defaulting Party to this Agreement or the Polish Purchase Agreement shall exercise the same remedies under both this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement.  By way of clarification of clause (v) above, if the Seller or the Polish Sellers are the defaulting Parties, the Purchasers and the Polish Purchasers must enforce the same remedies under both this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement (i.e., the Purchasers and the Polish Purchasers must either both elect to terminate this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement, or exercise specific performance under both this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement, and if specific performance is not available under either this Agreement or the Polish Purchase Agreement, then the Purchasers and the Polish Purchasers may only exercise its right to terminate both this Agreement and the Polish Purchase Agreement).  This Section 3.7(d) shall be null and void and shall not apply to any Party from and after the closing under the Polish Purchase Agreement.
(e)    This Section 3.7 shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement.
3.8    German Merger Control.  Purchasers shall notify the German Federal Cartel Office pursuant to § 39 Sec. 1 GWB in connection with § 37 Sec. 1 Number 1 GWB of the sale/purchase transactions contemplated herein promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days, after the Effective Date.  Purchasers shall thereafter, at their sole cost and expense, use their reasonable efforts to resolve any objections raised by the German Federal Cartel Office, and shall 

26

reasonably promptly provide the German Federal Cartel Office with any documents or information requested by it.  Purchasers shall reasonably promptly forward to Seller a copy of any notices, letters or other communications received by Purchasers from the German Federal Cartel Office in connection with, and shall otherwise keep Seller reasonably informed as to the status of the German Federal Cartel Office’s review of, the sale/purchase transaction contemplated herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligation by Purchasers under this Agreement and Section 3.8 to resolve any objections raised by the German Federal Cartel Office on Purchasers shall be limited solely to actions with respect to the LLC Interests and shall exclude any assets, businesses or other interests held by Purchaser or its Affiliates.

(e)     Without limiting the rights of the Purchasers otherwise set forth herein, if the Purchasers determine that the Seller may be a Blocked Person or that the Seller has otherwise breached the representations set forth in this Section 4.21, then the Purchasers

Authorized Qualifications shall not constitute a default by Seller or a failure of a condition precedent to Closing.  If, prior to the Closing, there occurs or exists a breach of a representation or warranty of Seller that constitutes an Authorized Qualifications, then the Purchasers shall have no remedy therefor and must proceed to the Closing with no adjustment of the Purchase Price and Seller shall have no liability therefor.  If (x) between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, facts or events not known to Seller prior to the Effective Date are discovered by Seller, (y) such facts or events are not Authorized Qualifications or otherwise caused by the Seller or any of the Owners in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, and (z) such facts or events would result in a failure of the condition set forth in Section 3.5(a)(ii) above, such failure

Prior to the Closing, the Seller shall amend and restate each Owner LLC Agreement to add or remove such terms as are necessary to provide that (i) the LLC Interests of the applicable Owner are freely transferable by the member(s) of such Owner and (ii) such Owner’s existence shall be perpetual, and, in each case (i) and (ii), each Owner LLC Agreement shall be otherwise silent with respect to the applicable topics (i.e., subject only to the default requirements of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act). 

40

Whenever in this Section 7.1 Seller is required to obtain the Purchasers’ written approval with respect to any transaction described therein, the Purchasers shall, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Seller's request therefor, notify Seller of its approval or disapproval of same (setting forth the reasons for any such disapproval) and, if the Purchasers fails to notify Seller of its approval or disapproval within said five (5)-Business-Day period, the Purchasers shall be deemed to have approved same.  This Section 7.1 shall survive the Closing through May 31, 2019.
7.2    R&W Insurance Policy and Title Policy.  The Purchasers and Seller acknowledge that Losses arising out of breaches of Seller’s Representations and Warranties  (other than as a result of fraud or willful misconduct) shall be payable solely through representation and warranty insurance (the “R&W Insurance Policy”) and a policy or policies of title insurance covering the Projects (whether one or more, the “Title Policy” and collectively with the R&W Insurance Policy, the “Insurance Policies”) to be purchased by the Purchasers on or before the Closing Date.  Purchasers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Insurance Policies, in each case on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers, on or prior to Closing, provided, however, the subrogation rights of the insurers against the Seller under the Insurance Policies shall in all events be expressly limited to the fraud and willful misconduct of Seller.  Without limiting the Purchasers’ obligations under the preceding sentence, the Purchasers shall (i) use all commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy on or prior to the Closing Date all conditions and requirements applicable to the Purchasers to obtaining the Insurance Policies and (ii) pay all policy premiums and other fees and expenses associated with obtaining the Insurance Policies required to be paid at or prior to the Closing.  The Purchasers shall bear the cost of the Insurance Policies; provided, that, at Closing, the Purchasers will receive a credit against the Purchase Price (by way of the inclusion of a liability in the Estimated NAV Statement and in the Final NAV Statement) in an amount equal to the sum of EUR 310,000 (“Seller’s Premium Contribution”); provided, that if the actual premiums paid by the Purchasers for the Insurance Policies are less than the Seller’s Premium Contribution, the Parties shall cause their respective Affiliates to cause an amount equal to such difference to be credited against the purchase price under the Polish Purchase Agreement, up to the amount of the premiums for the analogous insurance policies purchased thereunder (any excess to be paid by the purchasers thereunder); provided, further, that, in the event that Purchasers obtain the Trade Tax Insurance Policy, Seller’s Premium Contribution shall be increased for all purposes under this Agreement by the amount Seller is obligated to reimburse to Purchasers for the costs of the Trade Tax Insurance Policy, as calculated in accordance with Section 7.3(d).  For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Purchasers’ obligation to close the sale/purchase transaction hereunder be conditioned on Purchaser obtaining or maintaining the Insurance Policies. 
7.3    Tax Covenants.
(a)    Tax Returns and VAT Documentation.
(i)    Seller shall prepare and file all Tax Returns for the Owners required to be filed by or on behalf of the Owners for all Taxable periods prior to the Closing Date, including for all calendar years completed prior to the Closing Date and for each Tax period in the calendar year 2018 with respect to which a Tax Return is due prior to the Closing Date (e.g., monthly VAT Tax Returns).  For the 

41

avoidance of doubt, Seller shall also file prior to Closing all Tax Returns for calendar years prior to and including 2016 that have not previously been filed. Further, Seller shall either file all Tax Returns for the calendar year 2017 prior to Closing or provide drafts of all such Tax Returns to the Purchasers by no later than November 30, 2018, such that Purchasers are able to timely file such Tax Returns.  
(ii)    Purchasers shall prepare all remaining Tax Returns for the year 2018 that have not been prepared by Seller in accordance with Seller’s obligations under Section 7.3(a)(i).
(iii)    The Seller and the Purchasers shall fully cooperate in preparing and filing all Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of the Owners for the period until and including the Closing Date. All Tax Returns for periods up to and including the Closing Date shall be prepared in a manner consistent with those prepared for previous Tax assessment periods. Purchasers’ obligations under this Section 7.3(a) shall include commercially reasonable access to all necessary information and documents required for the preparation of the aforementioned Tax Returns. The Seller shall fully cooperate with the Purchasers to provide without undue delay any information needed for the preparation of the Tax Returns upon the Purchasers` reasonable request. On request of the Purchasers, the Seller shall in particular procure (stehen dafür ein) for the Purchasers any document or information that the Purchasers reasonably believe would be useful in connection with a relevant Tax Return, provided that such document or information is in the Seller’s possession or can be reasonably obtained by the Seller.
(iv)    The Seller shall provide to the Purchasers full documentation regarding input VAT pursuant to Sect 15a VATA as prescribed in Sect 15a.12 of the VAT Application Decree (Umsatzsteueranwendungserlass) within six (6) weeks after the Closing Date. 
(b)    Tax Audits; Cooperation.
(i)    The Purchasers shall promptly notify the Seller in writing of any announcement, notice or commencement of any Relevant Tax Proceeding in relation to any Pre-Closing Date Period, including such factual information describing the object of the Relevant Tax Proceeding to a reasonable level of detail and copies of any assessment, notice or other document received from any Tax authority related to the applicable Tax.
(ii)    The Seller shall fully cooperate with the Purchasers to provide without undue delay any information to be furnished to a Tax auditor or the Tax authorities in connection with any Relevant Tax Proceedings upon the Purchasers` reasonable request.
(iii)    On request of the Purchasers, the Seller shall in particular procure (stehen dafür ein) for the Purchasers any document or information that the 

42

Purchasers reasonably believe would be useful in connection with a Relevant Tax Proceeding, provided that such document or information is the Seller’s possession or can be reasonably obtained by the Seller. 
(c)    Purchasers covenant to Seller that, except as required by any Governmental Authority or mandatory Requirements of Law, and after having given Seller the opportunity to intervene, neither Purchasers nor any of their subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Owners) will (i) implement any restructurings with retroactive effect prior to and including the Closing Date or (ii) take any action on or after Closing that could give rise to any Tax liability of Seller or Seller’s affiliates.
(d)    From the Effective Date until the Closing, the Parties shall cooperate to obtain an insurance policy for the benefit of Purchasers covering the Trade Tax Risk (the “Trade Tax Insurance Policy”).  Seller will reimburse Purchasers for all costs for the Trade Tax Insurance Policy up to an amount of EUR 50,000. This Section 7.3(d) shall survive the Closing through May 31, 2019.   
(e)    Except as explicitly provided elsewhere in this Section 7.3, this Section 7.3 shall survive, with respect to each respective Claim with respect to a particular Owner hereunder, the Closing until such claim has become time-barred (verjähren) on the date that is six (6) months after the date on which the last applicable Tax assessment with respect to such Owner has become final and non-amendable (Eintritt der Festsetzungsverjährung einschl. Ablaufhemmungen).
ARTICLE VIII     
 
MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE
8.1    Material Adverse Change.  
(a)    MAC.  If, prior to the Closing Date, any of the Projects is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller will promptly give the Purchasers notice thereof.  If all or a Significant Portion of any Project is so destroyed or damaged, and any of  (i) the cost to repair or restore such destruction or damage is not fully recoverable from applicable insurance (subject to any deductible under any such applicable insurance policy), (ii) the cost to repair or restore such destruction or damage exceeds 40% of such Project’s Allocated Asset Value, or (iii) such destruction or damage was caused by the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of the Applicable Owner or any agent, director, or employee of the Applicable Owner or any Manager (each circumstance described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii), a “MAC”), the Purchasers will have the option to terminate this Agreement as to such Project and its Applicable Owner upon notice to Seller given not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of Seller’s notice.  In the event of the termination of this Agreement as to a Project and its Applicable Owner pursuant to this Section 8.1(a), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Asset Value of such Project.  
(b)    Termination of this Agreement as to a Project and its Applicable Owner shall not terminate this Agreement as to the remainder of the Projects not so terminated 

43

pursuant to Section 8.1(a).  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Polish Purchase Agreement, if the Portfolio Purchase Price is reduced as a result of the termination of this Agreement as to one or more Projects and their Applicable Owners pursuant to Section 8.1(a) and/or the termination of the Polish Purchase Agreement as to one or more Polish Projects, and such aggregate reduction in the Portfolio Purchase Price equals or exceeds 20% of the Portfolio Purchase Price, each Party will have the option, by written notice delivered to the other Party within five (5) Business Days of the most recent termination to occur pursuant to Section 8.1(a) or pursuant to the Polish Purchase Agreement, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety, in which case the Party so terminating this Agreement shall also cause the Polish Purchase Agreement (to the extent closing thereunder has not occurred) to be terminated and the Purchasers and their Affiliates shall be entitled to receive a refund of the Escrowed Deposit and the Polish Deposit, and no Party shall have any further obligations hereunder, other than obligations that expressly survive termination hereof.  If the Purchasers do not timely elect to terminate this Agreement as to a Project that has suffered a MAC, then Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction, but (a) at Closing, Seller shall, or shall cause the Applicable Owner to, assign and turn over to the Purchasers all of the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded, all of their respective right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty (excluding any proceeds of insurance that are payable on account of any business interruption, rental insurance or similar coverage intended to compensate the Applicable Owner for loss of rental or other income from such Project attributable to periods prior to the Closing), and (b) Seller shall convey the LLC Interests in the Applicable Owner to the Purchasers at Closing, and the Parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that the Purchasers will receive a credit against cash due at Closing for the amount of the deductible on such insurance policy less any amounts expended by the Seller or the Applicable Owner to collect any such insurance proceeds or to make such repairs or to remedy any unsafe conditions at such Project, other than repairs which are the responsibility of Tenants under Leases.
(c)    Casualty of Less Than a Significant Portion.  If less than a Significant Portion of a Project is damaged as aforesaid, or if all or a Significant Portion of any Project is so destroyed or damaged but such damage does not constitute a MAC, then the Purchasers shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement as to such Project and Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction, but (a) the Applicable Owner will assign and turn over to the Purchasers all of the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty (excluding any proceeds of insurance that are payable on account of any business interruption, rental insurance or similar coverage intended to compensate the Applicable Owner for loss of rental or other income from such Project attributable to periods prior to the Closing), and (b) the Parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that the Purchasers will receive a credit against cash due at Closing for the amount of the deductible on such insurance policy less any amounts expended by the Applicable Owner to collect any such insurance proceeds or to make such repairs or to remedy any unsafe conditions at such Project, other than repairs which are the responsibility of Tenants under Leases.

ARTICLE IX     
 
INDEMNITY; LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNITY
9.1    Survival.  The representations and warranties of Seller contained in ARTICLE IV shall survive the Closing as set forth in Section 9.5, and the representations and warranties of Purchasers contained in ARTICLE V shall survive the Closing as set forth in Section 9.3.  The other covenants and agreements of the Purchasers and Seller contained in this Agreement shall not survive beyond the Closing, except for (i) indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9.2(c), which shall survive until all claims thereunder have become time-barred (verjähren) on the date that is six (6) months after the date on which the last applicable Tax assessment has become final and non-amendable (Eintritt der Festsetzungsverjährung einschl. Ablaufhemmungen), and (ii) those covenants and agreements that expressly survive by their terms, in which case such covenants and agreements shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months unless a particular covenant or agreement contains a specific survival period.
9.1    Obligation of Seller to Indemnify.  Subject to Sections 9.1, 9.4, 9.5, and 9.6 and this Section 9.2, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchasers from and against any and all claims, causes of action, judgments, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses, whether from third party claims or otherwise, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other out‐of‐pocket expenses including fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this indemnity in litigation (collectively, “Losses”) that arise out of, or result from:
(a)    any liabilities of the Owners that arose or accrued prior to the Closing Date under any contract or agreement to which any of the Owners is (or was) a party, and by which it is (or was) bound but which expired or was terminated prior to the Closing Date; 
(b)    third party claims for personal injury or property damage, if such injury or damage occurred wholly prior to the Closing Date except to the extent any Owner receives insurance proceeds covering any such third party claim;
(c)    any liabilities arising out of Taxes (excluding Transfer Taxes arising purely as a result of this Agreement) of the Owners or the Projects, to the extent payable by an Owner, that are attributable to any Taxable period or portion thereof ending prior to the Closing Date, including interest on Taxes for any Pre-Closing Date Period imposed on the Owners by any Tax authority (it being understood that indemnifiable interest is calculated until and including the Closing Date).  For purposes of this clause (c),  the amount of Taxes attributable to any portion of a Taxable period shall be determined as if the Closing Date was the end of a Tax accounting period (provided, that thresholds and allowances that are only granted for a full financial year shall be recognized on pro rata basis for the purposes of this determination); and
(d)    any breach or inaccuracy of Seller’s Representations and Warranties or Seller’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.3.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge and agree that if the Purchasers have knowledge of a breach or an inaccuracy of any Seller’s 

45

Representations and Warranties, and the Purchasers proceed with Closing, the Purchasers shall be deemed to have waived and released any claim for indemnification with respect thereto, except for any Tax claims under Section 4.11, Section 7.3 or Section 9.2(c).  As used herein, “the Purchasers have knowledge” shall mean the actual knowledge of the Purchasers’ Representative (and not constructive or imputed knowledge), after due inquiry, and will not be construed to refer to the knowledge of any other officer, director, agent, employee or representative of the Purchasers, or any affiliate of the Purchasers, or to impose upon Purchasers’ Representative any duty other than as set forth herein to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge or the absence thereof pertains, or to impose upon Purchasers’ Representative any individual personal liability. As used herein, “Purchasers’ Representative” shall mean Peter Krause.
9.2    Obligation of Purchaser to Indemnify.  Subject to Sections 9.1, 9.4, 9.5, and 9.6 and this Section 9.3, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against all Losses that arise out of or result from, (i) the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser pursuant to ARTICLE V to the extent not waived in writing by Seller and (ii) any Transfer Taxes.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: (i) the Purchasers’ total liability, including any liability for costs, fees, expenses (including legal expenses) and interest, (A) in respect of all claims for indemnification for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser pursuant to ARTICLE V is limited to 10% of the Allocated Asset Value, and (B) in respect of all claims for indemnification in relation to any Transfer Taxes is limited to the total amount of such Transfer Taxes less any portion of the Transfer Taxes paid by the Purchasers; and (ii) the Purchasers shall have no liability for any claim for indemnification unless the Seller gives written notice to the Purchasers of any matter or event that may give rise to such claim as soon as commercially practicable after the Seller becomes aware of such matter or event, with reasonable detail of such matter or event then known to the Seller, on or before the date being twelve (12) months from the Closing Date (the “Purchasers’ R&W Survival Period”). 
9.3    Indemnification Procedure. 
(a)    Any indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall, within the relevant limitation period provided in Section 9.1, promptly upon discovering or identifying the underlying reasons giving rise to a claim for indemnification give the indemnifying Party or Parties (collectively, the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claims for indemnification hereunder and shall include in the Claim Notice the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim and a reference to the provision of this Agreement or any agreement, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement upon which such claim is based; provided, that a Claim Notice in respect of any action at law or in equity by or against a third party as to which indemnification will be sought shall be given promptly after the action or suit is commenced and the Indemnified Party shall not make any admissions, enter into any settlement agreements or otherwise make any compromise with such third party prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period set forth in Section 9.4(b) below or thereafter in the event the Indemnifying Party has given notice of its election to take over the defense in accordance with Section 9.4(b) below and for so long as such Party diligently pursues such defense (it being agreed 

46

that, in the event the Indemnifying Party does not make such election or ceases to diligently pursue such defense, the provisions of Section 9.4(c)) shall apply).
(b)    The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its own cost, to participate jointly in the defense of any claim or demand in connection with which the Indemnified Party has claimed indemnification hereunder, and, if the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such claim or demand, may elect to take over the defense of such claim or demand through counsel of its own choosing by so notifying the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of such claim or demand.  If the Indemnifying Party makes such an election:
(i)    it shall keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed as to the status of such matter and shall promptly send copies of all pleadings to the Indemnified Party;
(ii)    with respect to any issue involved in such claim or demand, it shall have the sole right to settle or otherwise dispose of such claim or demand on such terms as it, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate; provided, however, that the consent, which consent shall be in its sole discretion, of the Indemnified Party to the settlement or disposition of any claim or demand shall be required if such settlement or disposition shall result in any liability (which is not paid at the time of settlement by the Indemnifying Party) to, or equitable relief against, the Indemnified Party; and
(iii)    the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate jointly in the defense of such claim or demand, but shall do so at its own cost not subject to reimbursement under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3.
(c)    If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to take over the defense of a claim or demand, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, compromise or settle such claim or demand in the exercise of its reasonable judgment; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnifying Party to any compromise or settlement of such claim or demand shall be required, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The costs of defense and any settlement reached shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the foregoing.
(d)    The Parties agree that any payment by Seller to Purchasers under this Article 9 shall be construed and deemed (i) between Seller and Purchasers as a reduction of the Purchase Price, and (ii), if payment is made directly to the relevant Owner, between Purchasers and the relevant Owner as a contribution (Einlage) by Purchasers into the relevant Owner. Payments under this Article 9 by Purchasers to Seller shall be construed and deemed accordingly and to the contrary.
(e)    With respect to claims for indemnification arising from the breach or inaccuracy of Seller’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.3, the Purchasers shall, prior to pursuing such indemnification, seek any applicable recourse under the Insurance Policies.

47

(f)    The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not apply to any Warranty Claims, other than those arising out of fraud or willful misconduct, such inapplicable Warranty Claims being subject to Section 9.5.
9.4    Limitations upon Indemnification.
(a)    R&W Insurance Policy.    
(i)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Sellers’ total liability in respect of all Warranty Claims (other than those arising as a result of fraud or willful misconduct), including any liability for costs, fees, expenses (including legal expenses) and interest, is limited to one euro (€1) (the “Liability Cap”), which amount shall be paid by Seller to Purchasers at Closing through a credit against the amount payable by the Purchasers hereunder, and the Purchasers agree and accept that their only recourse in respect of all and any Warranty Claims (other than those arising as a result of fraud or willful misconduct) in excess of the Liability Cap shall be under the R&W Insurance Policy, notwithstanding that the Purchasers are or may be unable to pursue or obtain any remedy under the R&W Insurance Policy, whether due to policy exceptions or exclusions, validity (including due to the insolvency, breach or default of any person), or creditworthiness, Purchasers’ failure to obtain or maintain the R&W Insurance or otherwise.
(ii)    The Purchasers acknowledge, agree and undertake that any claims under this agreement, including Warranty Claims, are subject to Section 10.12.
(iii)    There shall be no liability for any Warranty Claim unless the Purchasers give written notice to the Seller of any matter or event which may give rise to the Warranty Claim as soon as commercially practicable after the Purchasers become aware of such matter or event with reasonable detail of such matter or event then known to the Purchasers, on or before the date being thirty-six (36) months from the Closing Date (the “R&W Survival Period”).
(iv)    Notwithstanding the limitation specified in the immediately preceding paragraph, (a) any claim of Purchasers for a breach of Seller’s Representations and Warranties set forth in Section 4.11 or for liabilities under Section 9.2(c) with respect to a particular Owner shall survive until it becomes time-barred (verjähren) on the date that is six (6) months after the date on which the last applicable Tax assessment with respect to such Owner has become final and non-amendable (Eintritt der Festsetzungsverjährung einschl. Ablaufhemmungen), but in any case until seven (7) years after the Closing Date, and (b) any claim of Purchasers for a breach of Seller’s Representations and Warranties set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3, Section 4.4, Section 4.13 or Section 4.14 shall survive until seven (7) years after the Closing Date. 
(b)    EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES UNDER WARRANTY CLAIMS FULLY COVERED BY THE INSURANCE POLICIES, IN NO 

48

EVENT SHALL ANY INDEMNIFYING PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT OF BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, COST OF CAPITAL OR LOSS OF BUSINESS REPUTATION OR OPPORTUNITY (OR DAMAGES SIMILAR TO THE FOREGOING), FOR ANY BREACH OR DEFAULT UNDER, OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, UNDER ANY FORM OF ACTION WHATSOEVER, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE (OTHER THAN INDEMNIFICATION FOR AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES IN RESPECT OF ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIM FOR WHICH INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER IS OTHERWISE REQUIRED).
9.5    Exclusivity of Indemnity.  If Closing occurs, excluding claims for the breach by any Party of Other Obligations, the indemnification provided in this ARTICLE IX (subject in all events to Section 9.1 and Section 9.5 above) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for damages available to the Parties to this Agreement for breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or (ii) any other right, claim or action arising from the transactions contemplated hereby which survive Closing.  If Closing occurs, Seller and the Purchasers expressly waive, release and agree not to make any claim against the other Party (except for indemnification claims made pursuant to this ARTICLE IX and claims for breach of Other Obligations), for the recovery of any costs or damages, whether directly or by way of contribution, or for any other relief whatsoever, under any applicable Requirements of Law, whether now existing or applicable or hereinafter enacted or applicable (including claims for breach of contract, failure of disclosure, tortious wrong or violation of securities laws) arising from transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  As used herein, “Other Obligations” shall mean the obligations under Section 2.6, Section 2.7, Section 3.1(d), Section 7.1, Section 7.3, Section 10.11, Section 10.13, Section 10.14 and Section 10.15 of this Agreement and the obligations under the Closing Documents.
9.6    Survival.  This ARTICLE IX shall survive the Closing.

3.    Transferor’s U.S. employer identification number is _______________; and

TAX REPRESENTATIONS

1.    With respect to the representations in Section 4.11(b), the following two (2) German administrative tax proceedings are pending:

		
	•
	Appeal dated 23 October 2017 against corporate income tax (CIT) assessment 2015 for Hines GREIT Duisberg LLC

Tax office estimated the 2015 taxable income as the German CIT return was not filed by September 2017. Appeal refers to the 2015 CIT return actually resulting in a CIT loss and therefore claiming for an assessment in accordance with the CIT return (once filed). Total tax of kEUR 5 resulting from the assessment has been paid irrespective of the appeal. 

		
	•
	Appeal dated 16 July 2018 against CIT assessment 2015 for Hines GREIT Sülzenbrücker Str. 7 LLC

Amount of CIT loss assessed by kEUR 109 lower than stated in the 2015 German CIT return. Appeal refers to consideration of CIT loss as stated in the tax return. Appeal only refers to amount of losses, i.e. no CIT payments (as taxable income is negative).

2.    The representations in Section 4.11(c) regarding construction withholding tax (“Bauabzugsteuer”) are limited to Seller’s knowledge in the case of (i) Hines Global REIT Forchheim Logistics LLC and its assets for periods prior to June 3, 2014 with respect to Phase 1 and January 1, 2015 with respect to Phase 2, (ii) Hines Global REIT Karlsdorf LLC and its assets for periods prior to April 1, 2015, (iii) Hines Global REIT Nuremburg LLC and its assets for periods prior to April 1, 2015, (iv) Hines Global REIT Sulzenbrucker Strasse 7 LLC and its assets for periods prior to March 19, 2013 and (v) Hines Global REIT Duisburg LLC and its assets for periods prior December 1, 2015.  

3.    Seller makes no representation or warranty with respect to matters covered by the Trade Tax Insurance Policy.
