W I T N E S S E T H :

          WHEREAS Millsaw Realty L.P. (“ Millsaw ”) is the owner and holder of the fee simple estate in and to the certain plots, pieces and parcels of land described in Schedule A annexed hereto (the “ Land ”) together with the buildings thereon (collectively, the “ Buildings ”); and

          WHEREAS, Seller desires to sell, assign, transfer and convey its right, title and interest in and to the Property (defined below) to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase the Property, in each case upon and subject to the terms and conditions more particularly set forth in this Agreement.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

          1. Sale and Purchase/Condition of Property . Seller hereby agrees to sell to Buyer the Land, the Buildings and all other improvements on and to the Land and all fixtures thereat (collectively, the “ Real Property ”), and (i) subject to the last sentence of this Paragraph 1, all furniture, furnishings, equipment, machinery, inventory, and other personal property that is located at the Real Property (the “Personal Property”), (ii) all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases (defined below) listed on Schedule B annexed hereto, and (iii) all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the condominium (the “ Condominium ”) and the condominium units (the “ Condominium Units ”) described on Schedule C annexed hereto (the Real Property, the Personal Property, the Leases, the Condominium, and the Condominium Units, collectively, the “ Property ”), and Buyer hereby agrees to purchase the Property from Seller. This sale and purchase includes all the right, title and interest of Seller in and to any easements, air rights and other rights appurtenant thereto, any land lying in the bed of any street, road or avenue, opened or proposed, in front of or adjoining the Real Property, to the center line thereof, and in and to any unpaid award for damage to the Real Property by reason of change of grade of any street, and Seller will execute and deliver to Buyer, on the Closing Date, or thereafter, on demand, all proper instruments for the conveyance of such title and the assignment and collection of any such award. At the Closing, Seller shall deliver the Real Property to Buyer in broom clean condition, and otherwise in its as-is condition on the date hereof, subject to reasonable wear and tear after the date hereof and through the Closing Date, subject to non-material depletion, replacement or addition thereto in the ordinary course of operating the Property.

          2. Purchase Price . The purchase price of the Property payable hereunder by Buyer to Seller is $27,000,000.00 (the “ Purchase Price ”), payable in the following manner:

 


 

               (a) $2,700,000.00 (the “ Down Payment ”) by wire transfer to Chadbourne & Parke LLP, as escrow agent (the “ Escrow Agent ”) upon execution of this Agreement by Buyer, the Down Payment to be held in escrow by Escrow Agent in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth, with the interest thereon to follow the principal;

               (b) the balance of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to $24,300,000.00 (subject to closing adjustments as hereinafter provided) on the Closing Date by wire transfer to Seller.

               (c) Buyer and Seller agree that, for all U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes, (1) the Purchase Price shall be allocated between the Land and the Buildings as the parties shall agree in a writing executed at or prior to Closing, and (2) the value of the Personal Property included in this sale is de minimis and, accordingly, no value has been attributed thereto and no value shall be allocated thereto.

          3. Escrow Provisions . Escrow Agent shall hold the Down Payment in accordance with this Agreement and shall release the Down Payment to the party entitled to same as provided in this Agreement, unless there is a dispute between the parties as to the Down Payment, in which event Escrow Agent shall only release the Down Payment in accordance with a joint instruction signed by Seller and Buyer, or a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

               (a) Escrow Agent shall deposit the Down Payment in an interest bearing attorney’s escrow account at Citibank, N.A.

               (b) Buyer and Seller agree that any notice or instruction sent by either Buyer or Seller to Escrow Agent shall simultaneously be sent to the other party to this Agreement. Escrow Agent agrees that a copy of any notice or instruction received by Escrow Agent from one party to this Agreement (either Buyer or Seller) shall be promptly sent to the other party to this Agreement. If Escrow Agent shall receive an instruction from either party, Escrow Agent may act in accordance with such instruction unless the other party shall notify Escrow Agent not to act in accordance with such instruction (the “ Objection Notice ”), which Objection Notice must be received by Escrow Agent within ten (10) calendar days after the date the first notice is received. The Objection Notice shall set forth the basis of objection to such disbursement with specificity. If Escrow Agent receives any Objection Notice, then Escrow Agent shall not disburse the Down Payment unless and until Escrow Agent has received subsequent instructions to do so, signed by both Buyer and Seller, or a court of appropriate jurisdiction has issued a final order ordering such disbursement or Escrow Agent has deposited such funds with a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with an interpleader action.

               (c) Escrow Agent is hereby authorized and directed to deliver the Down Payment and all interest accrued thereon to Seller on the Closing Date, provided that if prior thereto Seller has defaulted hereunder, Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to deliver the Down Payment plus all interest accrued thereon to Buyer or if prior thereto Buyer has defaulted hereunder, Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to deliver the Down Payment plus all interest accrued thereon to Seller.

2


 

               (d) If there is a dispute between Buyer and Seller as to which party is entitled to the Down Payment, Escrow Agent may at any time deposit the Down Payment and all accrued interest thereon with a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with an interpleader action, and upon notice to Seller and Buyer of such deposit, Escrow Agent shall have no further responsibility or liability hereunder.

               (e) Seller and Buyer acknowledge that Escrow Agent is merely a stakeholder, and that Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission unless taken or suffered in bad faith or in willful disregard of this Agreement. Escrow Agent’s sole duties are as indicated herein, and upon the disposition of the Down Payment as provided herein, Escrow Agent shall be deemed to have performed all of such duties and automatically shall be discharged from any further obligation hereunder. Seller and Buyer shall indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder.

               (f) The parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent is counsel to Seller, and Escrow Agent may continue to represent Seller in the event of any dispute under this Agreement.

          4. Closing . The closing (the “ Closing ”) of the transactions contemplated hereunder shall occur, and the Closing documents shall be delivered upon tender of the balance of the Purchase Price by Buyer as provided for in this Agreement, on August 5, 2009 or any adjourned date as provided for in this Agreement (the actual date of Closing being called the “ Closing Date ”). Buyer may accelerate the scheduled Closing Date of August 5, 2009 to an earlier date (on a week day that is not a holiday and that is not before July 20, 2009) upon five (5) business days prior notice to Seller. The Closing shall occur at the offices of Chadbourne & Parke LLP, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, New York 10112.

          5. Due Diligence Period . Buyer acknowledges that commencing prior to the execution of this Agreement and continuing for a period which will expire on July 16, 2009 (the “ Due Diligence End Date ”), Buyer has conducted, and shall be entitled to continue to conduct, its examinations, inspections, testing, studies and/or investigations (collectively, “ Due Diligence ”) of the Real Property and information regarding the Real Property. If Buyer is not satisfied with the results of its Due Diligence for reasons relating only to (i) the state of title to the Real Property, or (ii) Buyer’s zoning requirements thereof, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller on or before the Due Diligence End Date, and, in the event of such termination, neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability hereunder except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement and Buyer shall be entitled to the return of the Down Payment plus accrued interest thereon. Such notice shall state in detail the reason(s) for termination. Time shall be of the essence with respect to the Due Diligence End Date.

          6. Representations and Warranties .

(Seller shall use reasonable and diligent efforts between the date of this Agreement and the Closing to cause Supresta to furnish replacement letters of credit as required by the Leases. If, at the Closing, Seller has not received such replacement letters of credit, the amount of the letters of credit required to be delivered by Supresta under the Leases shall be withheld from the Down Payment to be delivered by Escrow Agent to Seller and remain in escrow with the Escrow Agent, and disbursed from time to time to Buyer upon written demand, to secure Supresta’s obligations under the Leases until such time as the replacement letters of credit are delivered to Buyer. Upon such delivery, any remaining amount withheld from the Down Payment to secure such obligations shall be released to the Seller. The provisions of this parenthetical clause shall survive the Closing.)

No tenant under any of the Leases has prepaid rent or additional rent beyond the current month. All of the improvements to be constructed by Seller under each of the Leases have been fully completed and paid for. All brokerage/leasing commissions relating to any Lease have been paid in full, except that Cushman & Wakefield will be owed a commission by Buyer if Supresta exercises its renewal option under either or both of its leases.

Buyer, as the case may be, shall promptly pay to the other the appropriate amounts in accordance with such apportionment.

          If, at Closing, the final tax bill or tax bills for the tax year in which the Closing takes place are not available to the parties, the parties shall adjust taxes on the basis of the figures then available subject, however, to a further adjustment of said taxes when the final tax bill or bills therefor have been received.

          Any unpaid real estate taxes or assessments levied against the Real Property which taxes and assessments apply to any period prior to the Closing Date, and notwithstanding whether such taxes or assessments are levied before or after the Closing Date, or billed after the Closing Date, shall be the sole obligation of Seller and shall be paid within ten (10) days after demand by Buyer when same have been billed.

          The amount of any tax refunds (net of attorneys’ fees and other costs of obtaining such tax refunds) with respect to any portion of the Real Property for the tax year in which the Closing Date occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date. All refunds for tax years prior to the year in which the Closing occurs shall belong solely to Seller and, upon receipt by Buyer the same shall be immediately paid to Seller. All refunds for the current tax year shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date, and, upon receipt by Seller or Buyer the applicable portion thereof shall be immediately paid to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be. Payment of any fees due certiorari counsel as a result of the 2008 assessment year reduction shall be apportioned between Buyer and Seller based upon each party’s share of the taxes for such period after taking into account such refund.

          Seller shall assign to Buyer at Closing all rights to the 2009 Certiorari Proceeding and Buyer shall have the right, at Buyer’s option, to thereafter withdraw or to pursue the 2009 Certiorari Proceeding without any liability or responsibility to Seller. The 2008 Certiorari Proceeding has been settled, at an aggregate Property assessment of $1,000,000, with the Town Board and the School Board and needs only Court approval. No change in such settlement may be made without each of Buyer’s and Seller’s prior written consent.

          Charges for all electricity, steam, gas and other utility services (each, a “ Utility ”; collectively, “ Utilities ”) shall be billed to Seller’s account up to the Closing Date and, from and after the Closing Date, all Utilities should be billed to Buyer’s account. If for any reason such changeover in billing is not practicable as of the Closing Date as to any Utility, such Utility shall be apportioned on the basis of the actual current readings or, if such readings have not been made, on the basis of the most recent bills that are available. If any apportionment is not based on an actual current reading, then upon the taking of a subsequent actual reading, the parties shall, within ten (10) business days following notice of the determination of such actual reading, readjust such apportionment and Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer, or Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller, as the case may be, the amount determined to be due upon such adjustment.

Seller shall not terminate any utility service, rather, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate prior to and after the Closing to transfer service to Buyer as of the Closing Date. 1

               (b) Any errors or omissions in computing apportionments or other adjustments at Closing shall be corrected within a reasonable time following Closing.

               (c) The provisions of this Paragraph 9 shall survive the Closing.

          10. Conditions to Buyer’s Obligations . The obligations of Buyer to close the transaction herein contemplated on the Closing Date are subject to the following conditions:

               (a) The representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement were true in all respects when made and are true in all material respects on the Closing Date pursuant to the Representation Update Certificate delivered by Seller to Buyer at Closing, and Seller has complied in all respects with its obligations and agreements hereunder, it being agreed, however, that if the Representation Update Certificate discloses a material adverse change from a Seller representation made on the date hereof, then Buyer, at its option, may elect to proceed to Closing and Buyer shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price due from Buyer at Closing in an amount equal to the amount reasonably required to cure such material adverse change or otherwise negate the effect of such material adverse change. Termination of, or defaults under, leases (other than Supresta) shall not be an adverse material change.

               (b) Buyer shall have obtained an ALTA title policy, or a commitment therefor from the Title Company, in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and which ALTA title policy shall insure the Property as one contiguous parcel without gaps, gores or strips.

               (c) Seller shall have delivered to Buyer estoppel certificates from Supresta and the cell tower lessee substantially in the forms annexed as Schedules M and N hereto, respectively.

               (d) Seller shall have performed all of its other obligations hereunder.

          11. Actions Pending Closing . Between the date hereof and the Closing Date: (a) Seller will not enter into any new contracts, leases or agreements of any kind (whether written or oral) affecting the Property, or enter into, cancel, modify or renew any Contracts affecting the Property (other than any such agreements which are entered into after the date hereof and which are canceled prior to the Closing by Seller) without the prior written consent of Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion, shall not be obligated to assume any obligations under any such Contract from and after the Closing; (b) Seller shall not initiate, seek or consent to any change in the current zoning classification for all or any part of the Real Property, or create or amend any restrictive covenant

for all or any part of the Real Property; (c) Seller shall maintain in full force and effect the insurance coverage described on Schedule H hereto; (d) Seller shall not affirmatively subject the Property to any additional liens, mortgages, exceptions, covenants or easements, which would not constitute Permitted Exceptions; and (e) Seller shall perform all of its obligations under the Leases in all material respects and not permit any event of default by Seller under the Leases.

          12. Casualty . If there is damage or destruction to all or a portion of the Property prior to the Closing Date by virtue of a fire or other casualty (either, a “ Casualty ”) then Seller shall as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of the Casualty deliver to Buyer a notice to which is annexed an estimate that sets forth the cost to repair such damage and restore the Property to its condition immediately prior to the Casualty, which estimate shall be prepared by a reputable contractor or insurance adjuster. If such notice states that the estimated cost to repair such damage and restore the Property is less than Two Million Dollars and 00/100 Cents ($2,000,000.00), then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, Seller shall assign to Buyer any and all claims under its insurance policies by reason of such damage or destruction attributable to the Property and Buyer shall take title with the assignment of such claim or claims and subject to such damage or destruction. If such notice states that the estimated cost to repair such damage and restore the Property is Two Million Dollars and 00/100 Cents ($2,000,000.00) or greater, then Buyer, at Buyer’s option, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice thereof to Seller no later than five (5) business days after the date Buyer receives Seller’s aforesaid notice, and in the event of such termination, neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability hereunder except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement and Buyer shall be entitled to the return of the Down Payment plus accrued interest thereon promptly after the giving of such notice terminating this Agreement. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement or fails to give a notice to Seller terminating this Agreement as required by this Paragraph 12, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, Seller shall assign to Buyer any and all claims under its insurance policies by reason of such damage or destruction attributable to the Property and Buyer shall take title with the assignment of such claim or claims and subject to such damage or destruction. If there is a Casualty and Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement or has no right to terminate this Agreement, then, at Closing, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit against the balance of the Purchase Price due at Closing in the amount of Seller’s deductible under its applicable insurance policies less any amounts reasonably and actually expended by Seller to collect any of the insurance proceeds or to remedy any unsafe conditions at the Property or to repair or restore any damages. Seller agrees that the insurance coverage as respects the Property shall not be reduced between the date hereof and the Closing without the express written consent of Buyer. Furthermore, Seller agrees that (with respect to the assigned claims described above) Buyer shall have the opportunity to participate in all settlement negotiations in connection with the Property, and the assigned insurance claims shall not be settled or the insurance proceeds used or disbursed in any manner without, in each case, the prior written consent of Buyer. The provisions of this Paragraph 12 shall survive the Closing.

          13. Condemnation . If prior to the Closing Date, there shall be any pending condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Real Property or any filing referring to a possible taking of the Real Property or any material part thereof (other than a condemnation for the purpose of widening Saw Mill River Road, provided any such widening would not have a

14


 

material adverse affect on Buyer and/or Buyer’s intended use of the Property), Buyer may at its sole discretion terminate this Agreement or close the transactions as contemplated hereunder, and (i) in the latter event, all awards or settlements under any such proceeding with respect to the Real Property, whether or not made prior to the Closing Date, shall become the property of Buyer, and (ii) in the former event, the Down Payment together with all interest earned thereon shall be returned to Buyer, and thereupon both parties shall be relieved of any further liability or obligation under this Agreement. The provisions of this Paragraph 13 shall survive the Closing.

          14. Remedies . If Buyer defaults hereunder, other than Buyer’s failure to pay to Seller the balance of the Purchase Price (subject to apportionments) on the Closing Date or to otherwise perform its obligations on the Closing Date, then Seller shall give Buyer notice thereof and Buyer shall have five (5) business days to cure the applicable default. If Buyer fails to cure such default on or prior to the fifth (5th) business day following Seller’s notice or if Buyer fails to pay the balance of the Purchase Price to Seller on the Closing Date or to perform any of its other obligations on the Closing Date, then Seller shall have the right to receive the Down Payment plus all interest accrued thereon as liquidated and agreed-upon damages. The provision herein contained for liquidated and agreed-upon damages is a bona fide provision for such and is not a penalty. The parties understand that by reason of Seller binding itself to the sale of the Property and by reason of the withdrawal of the Property from sale at a time when other parties would be interested in acquiring it, Seller will have sustained damages if Buyer defaults, which damages will not be capable of determination with mathematical precision and, therefore, as aforesaid, this provision for liquidated and agreed-upon damages has been incorporated in this Agreement as a provision beneficial to both parties. If Seller defaults hereunder, Buyer shall be entitled solely to the remedy of specific performance and if Buyer brings an action for specific performance and prevails in such action, then Seller shall be obligated to promptly thereafter reimburse Buyer for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and court cost in connection with bringing and prosecuting such action. The provisions of this Paragraph 14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          15. Notices . All notices and other communications (collectively, “Notice”) given under any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person or sent by reputable overnight courier service, addressed as follows:

The provisions of this Paragraph 16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the Closing.

          17. Lien of Sums Paid on Account . All sums paid on account of this Agreement, if any, and the reasonable expenses of the examination of the title to the Real Property made in connection therewith are hereby made liens on the Real Property, but such liens shall not continue after default by Buyer under this Agreement.

          18. Assignment .
