and corporate existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, acting through its
Department of Public Property (“Seller” or “City”), and [NAME OF PURCHASER], a [type of
entity and state of formation] with a principal place of business at [address] (“Purchaser”).
BACKGROUND
A. Seller is the owner of that certain lot or parcel of ground and all of the
improvements thereon bounded by 15th
Street, John F. Kennedy Boulevard, 16th
Street and Arch
Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (the “Property”).
B. The Property is improved by a park located on the surface, commonly known as
JFK Plaza or LOVE Park, and a 4-level underground parking garage currently consisting of 820
parking spaces.
C. Seller intends to record in the Department of Records of the City of Philadelphia
(the “Recorder’s Office”) a Declaration of Rights, Covenants, Easements and Restrictions
encumbering the Property substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Declaration”).
The Declaration describes the Property (but without subdividing the Property) as being divided
between the “Affected Area” and the “Southern Portion of the Park,” each as defined in the
Declaration.
D. The Declaration further describes the Affected Area (but without subdividing the
Affected Area) as being divided into three “Units”: the “Upper Park Area,” the “Parking
Garage” and the “Lower Park Area,” each as defined in the Declaration.
E. Immediately after recording the Declaration, Seller intends to convey to Purchaser
the Parking Garage and Purchaser intends to purchase from Seller the Parking Garage, upon the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Without limitation, the recording
of the Declaration and the conveyance of the Parking Garage to Purchaser are each subject to
enactment of an ordinance of Philadelphia City Council and signature by the Mayor of
Philadelphia. [ORDINANCE SHOULD BE ENACTED PRIOR TO EXECUTION OF THIS
AGREEMENT. IF SO DELETE PREVIOUS SENTENCE.]
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of ten ($10.00) dollars and the mutual covenants
and agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as
follows:
1. Sale of Parking Garage.
(a) Seller agrees to sell and convey to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to
purchase from Seller, at the price, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Parking Garage, together with (i) all easements, rights of way, reservations,
covenants, restrictions, privileges, appurtenances, and other estates and rights of Seller pertaining
to the Parking Garage, as well as any rights accruing to the “Owner” (as defined in the
Declaration) of the Parking Garage under the Declaration; (ii) all right, title and interest of Seller
in and to all equipment, furnishings, fixtures, inventory and other tangible personal property owned
by Seller located in the Parking Garage and used in connection with the operation of the Parking
Garage as a parking garage, but excluding the items of equipment and fixtures described in
Section 2(b); (iii) Seller’s interest as landlord in all leases encumbering the Parking Garage on
the Closing Date, but expressly excluding the PPA Lease (the “Leases”); and (iv) all licenses,
permits and other written authorizations necessary for the use, operation or ownership of the
Parking Garage and in Seller’s possession or control, to the extent assignable (the items listed in
clauses (i)-(iv) above being included in the term “Parking Garage”).
(b) Specifically excluded from the “Parking Garage” and this sale are all
contracts, agreements and items of personal property not described in Section 1(a), as well as the
items described in Schedule 1(b). Without limitation, Seller shall not assign to Purchaser
Seller’s Lease Agreement with the PPA dated as of December 30, 1999 for the Parking Garage
(the “PPA Lease”), any existing management agreements, any deposits with utility companies, or
any contracts or policies of insurance for the Parking Garage.
2. Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller for the
Parking Garage (the “Purchase Price”) is ________________________ ($_________________)
payable as follows:
(a) [Acknowledge any deposit required with submissions of Proposals at
the RFP stage (the “Initial Deposit”)].
(b) _________________________ ($___________________) (together
with [the Initial Deposit and] all interest earned thereon [and hereon], the “Deposit”),
simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition precedent
to the effectiveness of this Agreement, by a bank wire transfer of immediately available funds to
an account designated by Title Company. The Deposit shall be non-refundable except as
expressly provided in this Agreement and shall be held and disbursed by Title Company in
accordance with the provisions of Section 17. Except as expressly otherwise set forth in this
Agreement, the Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price on the Closing Date.
(c) The balance of the Purchase Price, _________________________
($___________________), by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds to Title
Company’s account on or before the Closing Date, subject to the prorations and adjustments set
forth in Section 3 or as otherwise provided under this Agreement, plus any other amounts
required to be paid by Purchaser to Seller at Closing, and less any amounts to be paid by Seller to
Purchaser at Closing.
3. Apportionments.
(a) Real Estate Taxes. The Parking Garage has been assigned OPA
Number 88-3-4105-00, but is currently exempt from real estate taxes. Real estate taxes for the
Parking Garage shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days in the calendar year, with
Purchaser being responsible for that portion of that calendar year occurring on and after the
Closing Date, and on the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay the City all real estate taxes
attributable to the Parking Garage from and after the Closing Date through the end of the then-
current calendar year.
(b) Other Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the Parking
Garage shall be prorated as of midnight of the day prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall pay all
utility charges and other operating expenses attributable to the Parking Garage to, but not
including the Closing Date and Purchaser shall pay all utility charges and other operating
expenses attributable to the Parking Garage on or after the Closing Date. To the extent that the
amount of actual consumption of any utility service is not determined prior to the Closing Date, a
proration shall be made at Closing based on the last available reading and post-Closing
adjustments between Purchaser and Seller shall be made within twenty (20) days of the date that
actual consumption for the pre-Closing period is determined, which obligation shall survive the
Closing and shall not be merged in the Deed. Seller shall not assign to Purchaser any deposits
which Seller has with any of the utility services or companies servicing the Parking Garage.
Purchaser shall arrange with those services and companies to have accounts opened in
Purchaser’s name beginning at 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date.
(c) Rents. All collected rents and other payments from tenants under the
Leases shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of midnight on the day prior to the
Closing Date. Seller shall be entitled to all rents, charges, and other revenue of any kind
attributable to any period under the Leases to but not including the Closing Date. Purchaser shall
be entitled to all rents (including any additional rent and any accrued tax and operating expense
reimbursements and escalations), charges and other revenue of any kind attributable to any
period under the Leases on and after the Closing Date. Rents or other reimbursements due
landlord under the Leases not collected as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated at the time of
Closing, but Purchaser shall make a good faith effort to collect the same on Seller’s behalf and to
tender the same to Seller upon receipt (which obligation of Purchaser shall survive the Closing
and shall not be merged in the Deed). Purchaser shall not have an exclusive right to collect the
sums due Seller under the Leases and Seller hereby retains its rights to pursue any tenant under
the Leases for sums due Seller for periods attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Parking
Garage. Seller’s rights under the immediately-preceding sentence shall survive the Closing and
shall not be merged in the Deed. Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for
pre-paid rentals held by Seller covering the period post-Closing.
(d) Other Revenues. Seller shall be entitled to all other revenues from the
Parking Garage collected prior to midnight on the day prior to the Closing Date, and Purchaser
shall be entitled to all other revenues from the Parking garage collected on or after midnight on
the Closing Date.
(e) Cash Security Deposits. At Closing, Seller shall give Purchaser a
credit against the Purchase Price in the aggregate amount of any unapplied cash security deposits
then held by Seller under the Leases and any interest thereon, less any administrative or similar
charges to which Seller may be entitled under applicable Laws or the respective Leases.
(f) Apportionment Credit. If the apportionments to be made at the
Closing result in a credit balance (i) to Purchaser, that sum shall be paid at the Closing by giving
Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of that credit balance, or (ii) to Seller,
Purchaser shall pay the amount thereof to Seller at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account or accounts to be designated by Seller for the payment of the
Purchase Price.
(g) Delayed Adjustment. If at any time following the Closing Date, any
adjustment under any subsection of this Section 3 shall prove to be incorrect (whether as a result
in an error in calculation or a lack of complete and accurate information as of the Closing), the
party in whose favor the error was made shall promptly pay to the other party the sum necessary
to correct that error upon receipt of proof of the error, provided that the proof is delivered to the
party from whom payment is requested within six (6) months after the Closing Date. The
provisions of this Section 3(g) shall survive the Closing and shall not be merged in the Deed.
[NOTE: TO BE COORDINATED WITH PPA]
4. Due Diligence Period and Closing Date.
(a) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on [date] (the “Due
Diligence Period”) to examine title to the Parking Garage, to inspect the physical and financial
condition of the Parking Garage and to review the Property Information. Purchaser’s right (A) to
undertake its due diligence activities, including the review of all Property Information, and (B) to
enter upon the Parking Garage for the purpose of making inspections and tests, shall at all times
be subject to Purchaser’s compliance with the provisions of Section 15 (including, without
limitation, Purchaser’s obligations contained in Section 15 to obtain and maintain insurance and
indemnify Seller).
(ii) Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
by giving written notice (“Purchaser’s Termination Notice”) of its election to Seller at any time
prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. If Purchaser shall timely elect to so
terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall be terminated and thereafter neither party shall
have any further rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, except as set forth in
Section 15 or as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (collectively, the “Surviving
Obligations”), and except that Purchaser shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit provided
Purchaser is not otherwise in default under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 19 to the contrary, if Purchaser shall not have provided to Seller Purchaser’s Termination
Notice prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have
irrevocably waived the right of termination granted under this Section 4(a)(ii), and this right of
termination shall be of no further force or effect.
(b) The delivery of the Deed and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of
[______________________], Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on [__________________], 2014 (the
“Closing Date”). If Closing does not occur by the Closing Date, unless otherwise agreed to by
Purchaser and Seller in writing, then provided that title is in the condition required by Section 5
[and the Ordinance Condition has been satisfied], the Title Company shall pay the Deposit to
Seller, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force and effect, and
Purchaser and Seller shall thereafter be released of further liability and obligations under this
Agreement except as to any matters which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.
If title is not in the condition required by Section 5 [and/or if the Ordinance Condition has not
been satisfied], then the previous sentence shall be revised to provide that Escrow Agent shall
return the Deposit to Purchaser.
5. Title.
(a) Purchaser shall obtain from a reputable title insurance company
selected by Purchaser licensed in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Title Company”) a
title commitment (the “Title Report”) with respect to the Parking Garage and, on or before the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period, deliver a copy thereof to Seller together with a letter
setting forth Purchaser’s objections to the exceptions to title listed on Schedules B-I and B-II to
the Title Report. Unless Purchaser shall object to any such exception on or before the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to all exceptions to
title to the Parking Garage. Seller shall convey and Purchaser shall accept title to the Parking
Garage subject to (i) those exceptions to title listed on Schedule 5(a)(i), (ii) applicable zoning
and building ordinances and land use regulations, (iii) all recorded and unrecorded encumbrances
on title to the Parking Garage (unless objected to as provided above), (iv) such state of facts as
would be disclosed by a physical inspection of the Parking Garage, (v) the lien of taxes not yet
due and payable, (vi) any exceptions caused by Purchaser’s Representatives, and (vii) any other
exceptions that the Title Company shall commit to insure over, without any additional cost to
Purchaser, whether the insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding,
indemnity of Seller or otherwise (the foregoing exceptions described in clauses (i) through (vii)
being collectively called the “Permitted Exceptions”).
(b) If Purchaser has any objections to [describe the survey of the Parking
Garage and appurtenances thereto being prepared by Gilmore & Associates] (the “Survey”),
Purchaser shall provide Seller with a letter setting forth Purchaser’s specific objections to such
matters shown on the Survey before expiration of the Due Diligence Period. If Purchaser does
not make any such objections on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser
shall be deemed to have consented to all matters shown on the Survey.
(c) Any title exceptions or Survey matters which are timely objected to by
Purchaser shall be herein collectively called the “Unacceptable Encumbrances.” Seller may elect
(but shall not be obligated) to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any Unacceptable
Encumbrances, and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed
thirty (30) days) for the purpose of such removal, which removal will be deemed effected by the
issuance of title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Unacceptable
Encumbrances. Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) business days after receipt
of Purchaser’s notice of Unacceptable Encumbrances whether Seller elects to remove the same.
If Seller is unable, or elects not to remove or endorse over any Unacceptable Encumbrances,
Purchaser may elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Agreement by
notice to Seller pursuant to Section 14(a), in which event the provisions of Section 14(a) shall
apply, or (ii) to take such title as Seller can convey without abatement of or credit against the
Purchase Price.

investment in real property and capable of evaluating the merits and risks of entering into this
Agreement and purchasing the Parking Garage, (ii) that Purchaser has entered into this
Agreement in reliance on its own (or its experts’) investigation of the physical, environmental,
economic and legal condition of the Parking Garage, and (iii) that Purchaser is not relying upon
any representation or warranty concerning the Parking Garage made by Seller or Seller’s
Representatives other than as expressly set forth in Sections 6(a)(i) and 12. Seller shall not have
any liability of any kind or nature for any subsequently discovered defects in the Parking Garage,
whether that defects were latent or patent.
(c) Purchaser acknowledges that the Due Diligence Period shall afford
Purchaser with a full and complete opportunity to perform all investigations, examinations and
inspections of the Parking Garage and all Property Information required by Purchaser. Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Property Information delivered or made available to
Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives by Seller or Seller’s Representatives may have been

(d) Purchaser, for itself, any Transaction Entity, and their respective
officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents, representatives, employees, invitees, successors
and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through any of them (each, a “Purchaser’s
Representative” and, collectively, the “Purchaser’s Representatives”), waives its right to recover
from, and forever releases and discharges, and covenants not to sue, any Seller’s Representative
with respect to any and all claims, causes of action, losses, costs, expenses, damages or
liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, whether direct or indirect,
known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, in contract, tort, or under statute (collectively,
“Claims”), that may arise on account of or in any way be connected with the Parking Garage
including, without limitation, the physical, environmental and structural condition of the Parking
Garage or any applicable Law, including, without limitation, any Claim relating to the use,
presence, discharge or release of any Hazardous Substance as of the Closing Date, except for
claims against Seller based upon any obligations, indemnities and liabilities of Seller expressly
provided in this Agreement. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that this release shall be
given full force and effect according to each of its expressed terms and provisions, including but
not limited to those relating to unknown and suspected claims, damages and causes of action. As
a material covenant and condition of this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that in the event of any
structural, engineering or environmental defects, errors or omissions, including without
limitation the presence or absence, location or scope of any Hazardous Materials in, at, or under

upon any obligations and liabilities of Seller expressly provided in this Agreement.

on, under, in, above or about the Parking Garage (including, without limitation, any and all
Claims under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, the

regulation, or any federal or state common law, whether now existing or applicable or hereafter
enacted or applicable, providing for or permitting any right of recovery for any environmental
matter or condition).
(f) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section
11 shall be a material factor in Seller’s acceptance of the Purchase Price and Seller is unwilling
to sell the Parking Garage unless Seller and Seller’s Representatives are expressly released as set
forth in Section 11(d).
(g) The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the Closing (and shall
not be merged in the Deed) or earlier termination of this Agreement.
12. Broker. Seller represents and warrants that it has dealt with no broker in
connection with the sale of the Parking Garage to Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants
to Seller that Jones Lang LaSalle (“Broker”) is the sole broker with whom it has dealt in
connection with the purchase of the Parking Garage from Seller. Upon the closing of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Seller shall pay Broker a commission pursuant to a
separate agreement between Seller and Broker. Each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
the other harmless from and against any and all Claims by any broker, finder or other person,
except Broker, for fees, commissions or other compensation arising out of the purchase and sale
of the Parking Garage from Seller to Purchaser if the Claim or Claims are based in whole or in
part on dealings or agreements with the indemnifying party. The obligations and representations
and warranties contained in this Section 12 shall survive the Closing (and shall not be merged in
the Deed) or earlier termination of this Agreement.
13. Casualty; Condemnation.
(a) Casualty: Any loss or damage to the Parking Garage caused by fire, or
loss commonly covered by the extended coverage endorsement of reputable insurance companies
between the Effective Date and the Closing Date shall not in any way void or impair any of the
conditions and obligations of this Agreement. Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s own cost and
expense, carry such insurance on the Parking Garage as Purchaser may deem desirable.
(b) Condemnation: If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the
Parking Garage is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or is the subject of a pending
taking which has not been consummated), Seller shall notify Purchaser of that fact. At the
Closing Seller shall cause the award or proceeds attributable to the Parking Garage to be
assigned to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards or other
proceeds for the taking by eminent domain or condemnation.
14. Remedies.
(a) If the Closing fails to occur by reason of Seller’s inability to perform
its obligations under this Agreement, then Purchaser, as its sole remedy for the inability of Seller,
may terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller. If Purchaser elects to terminate this
Agreement, then this Agreement shall be terminated and thereafter neither party shall have any
further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except for the Surviving Obligations, except
that Purchaser shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit provided that Purchaser is not otherwise
in default hereunder. Except as set forth in this Section 14(a), Purchaser hereby expressly
waives, relinquishes and releases any other right or remedy available to it at law, in equity or
otherwise by reason of Seller’s inability to perform its obligations hereunder.
(b) If the Closing fails to occur by reason of Seller’s failure or refusal to
perform its obligations hereunder, then Purchaser, as its sole remedy, may (i) terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller, (ii) waive the condition and proceed to Closing, or (iii) seek
specific performance from Seller[; provided, however, that Purchaser agrees that in no event
shall Seller’s failure or inability to satisfy the Ordinance Condition be considered a failure of
performance, default under or breach of this Agreement, and in no event shall Purchaser be
entitled to require Purchaser to specifically perform the Ordinance Condition]. As a condition
precedent to Purchaser exercising any right it may have to bring an action for specific
performance as the result of Seller’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations hereunder,
Purchaser must commence such an action within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the
default. Purchaser agrees that its failure to timely commence such an action for specific
performance within this sixty (60) day period shall be deemed a waiver by it of its right to
commence such an action.
(c) Upon a default hereunder by Purchaser or if the Closing fails to occur
by reason of Purchaser’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations hereunder, then Seller may
terminate this Agreement by notice to Purchaser. If Seller elects to terminate this Agreement,
then this Agreement shall be terminated and Seller may retain the Deposit as liquidated damages
for all loss, damage and expenses suffered by Seller, it being agreed that Seller’s damages are
impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain and that the amount of the Deposit represents a
reasonable estimate of the damages that Seller will sustain in the event of a default hereunder by
Purchaser or if the Closing fails to occur by reason of Purchaser’s failure or refusal to perform its
obligations hereunder, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or
liabilities hereunder, except for the Surviving Obligations. Nothing contained herein shall limit
or restrict Seller’s ability to pursue any rights or remedies it may have against Purchaser with
respect to the Surviving Obligations. This retention of the Deposit is intended to constitute
liquidated damages, and shall not be deemed to constitute a forfeiture or penalty. Except as set
forth in this Section 14(c) and in Sections 15 and 16(f), Seller hereby expressly waives,
relinquishes and releases any other right or remedy available to it at law, in equity or otherwise
by reason of Purchaser’s default under this Agreement or Purchaser’s failure or refusal to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.
15. Purchaser’s Access to the Property. While this Agreement remains in
effect, Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives shall have the right to enter upon the Property
for the purpose of inspecting the Parking Garage and making engineering tests and other
investigations, inspections and tests related to Purchaser’s development of the Parking Garage
(collectively, “Investigations”), provided Purchaser enters into an Access License with the City
in form attached as Exhibit H.
16. Property Information and Confidentiality.
(a) Purchaser agrees that, prior to the Closing, no Property Information
will be used by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives, directly or indirectly, for any purpose
other than evaluating the Parking Garage. Moreover, Purchaser agrees that, prior to the Closing,
the Property Information will be transmitted only to Purchaser’s Representatives who need to
know the Property Information for the purpose of evaluating the Parking Garage. If, pursuant to
any agreement between Seller and any third party any Property Information is subject to a
confidentiality agreement with that third party, Purchaser agrees that delivery of that Property
Information shall be subject to receipt from Purchaser of a written confidentiality agreement
required by that agreement with that third party and Purchaser further agrees that transmission
and use of any Property Information shall be subject to the requirements of both that separate
confidentiality agreement and this Section 16. Purchaser shall not contact any governmental
official, representative or employee (other than officials, representatives or employees of Seller
whom Seller has made available to answer questions about the Parking Garage) regarding the
condition of the Parking Garage without Seller’s prior written consent thereto. In addition, if
Seller’s consent is obtained by Purchaser, Seller shall be entitled to receive at least five (5) days’
prior written notice of the intended contact and to have a representative present when Purchaser
has any contact with any governmental official, representative or employee.
(b) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller and Seller’s
Representatives, harmless from and against any and all Claims suffered or incurred by Seller any
of Seller’s Representatives and arising out of or in connection with a breach by Purchaser or
Purchaser’s Representatives of the provisions of this Section 16.
(c) If this Agreement is terminated, Purchaser shall, and shall cause
Purchaser’s Representatives to, promptly deliver to the Seller all originals and copies of the
Property Information in the possession or control of Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives.
(d) As used in this Agreement, the term “Property Information“ shall
mean (i) all information and documents in any way relating to the Parking Garage or the
Property, the operation thereof or the sale thereof (including, without limitation, financial data
and records) furnished to, or otherwise made available for review to Purchaser’s Representatives,
and (ii) all analyses, compilations, data, studies, reports or other information or documents
prepared or obtained by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives containing or based, in whole
or in part, on the information or documents described in the preceding clause (i) or the
Investigations, or otherwise reflecting their review or investigation of the Parking Garage or the
Property.
(e) In addition to any other remedies available to Seller, Seller shall have
the right to seek equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief or specific
performance, against Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives in order to enforce the provisions
of this Section 16.
(f) The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the Closing (and shall
not be merged in the Deed) or earlier termination of this Agreement.
17. Escrow. Title Company shall hold the Deposit and Purchaser’s and Seller’s
Documents in escrow, dispose of the Deposit, pro rate expenses and deliver Purchaser’s and
Seller’s Documents only in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) Prior to the full execution of this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller
opened an escrow (the “Escrow”) with the Title Company. Within two (2) days after the full
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties shall deliver to Title Company a fully
executed copy of this Agreement. The purchase and sale of the Parking Garage shall be
completed through the Escrow. This Agreement shall constitute joint escrow instructions to Title

Seller hereunder.
(c) The costs incidental to the Closing shall be paid as follows:
(i) All real estate transfer taxes will be paid by Purchaser at
Closing. Purchaser is advised that Seller is an “Exempt Party” under 72 P.S. 8102-C.2 (state

Agreement.
(vi) Any other costs or expenses in connection with the

This Section 17(c) shall survive the Closing (and shall not be merged
in the Deed) or earlier termination of this Agreement.
(d) Title Company shall deliver the Deposit to Seller or Purchaser, as the
case may be, as follows:
(i) to Seller, upon completion of the Closing; or
(ii) to Seller, after receipt of Seller’s demand in which Seller
certifies either that (A) Purchaser has defaulted under this Agreement, or (B) this Agreement has
been otherwise terminated or cancelled, and Seller is thereby entitled to receive the Deposit; but
Title Company shall not honor Seller’s demand until more than ten (10) days after Title
Company has given a copy of Seller’s demand to Purchaser in accordance with Section 17(e)(i),
nor thereafter if Title Company receives a Notice of Objection from Purchaser within that ten
(10) day period; or
(iii) to Purchaser, after receipt of Purchaser’s demand in which
Purchaser certifies either that (A) Seller has defaulted under this Agreement, or (B) this
Agreement has been otherwise terminated or cancelled, and Purchaser is thereby entitled to
receive the Deposit; but Title Company shall not honor Purchaser’s demand until more than ten
(10) days after Title Company has given a copy of Purchaser’s demand to Seller in accordance
with Section 17(e)(i), nor thereafter if Title Company receives a Notice of Objection from Seller
within that ten (10) day period.
Upon delivery of the Deposit, Title Company shall be relieved of all
liability hereunder and with respect to the Deposit. Title Company shall deliver the Deposit, at

object to delivery of the Deposit to the party making the demand by giving a notice of objection
(a “Notice of Objection”) to Title Company. After receiving a Notice of Objection, Title
Company shall send a copy of the Notice of Objection to the party who made the demand; and
thereafter, in its sole and absolute discretion, Title Company may elect either (A) to continue to
hold the Deposit until Title Company receives a written agreement of Purchaser and Seller
directing the disbursement of the Deposit, in which event Title Company shall disburse the
Deposit in accordance with such agreement; and/or (B) to take any and all actions as Title
Company deems necessary or desirable, in its sole and absolute discretion, to discharge and
terminate its duties under this Agreement, including without limitation depositing the Deposit
into any court of competent jurisdiction and bringing any action of interpleader or any other
proceeding; and/or (C) in the event of any litigation between Seller and Purchaser, to deposit the
Deposit with the clerk of the court in which that litigation is pending.
(ii) If Title Company is uncertain for any reason whatsoever as
to its duties or rights hereunder (and whether or not Title Company has received any written
demand under Section 17(d)(ii) or (iii), or Notice of Objection under Section 17(e)(i)),
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Title Company may hold and apply the Deposit
pursuant to Section 17(e)(i)(A), (B) or (C) and may decline to take any other action whatsoever.
If the Deposit is deposited in a court by Title Company pursuant to Section 17(e)(i)(B) or (C),
Title Company shall be entitled to rely upon the decision of that court. In the event of any
dispute whatsoever among the parties with respect to disposition of the Deposit, Purchaser and
Seller shall pay the attorney’s fees and costs incurred by Title Company (which said parties shall
share equally) for any litigation in which Title Company is named as, or becomes, a party.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within
one (1) business day following receipt of the Deposit, Title Company shall place the Deposit in
an Approved Investment. The interest, if any, which accrues on that Approved Investment shall
be deemed part of the Deposit; and Title Company shall dispose of that interest as and with the
Deposit pursuant to this Agreement. Title Company may not commingle the Deposit with any
other funds held by Title Company. Title Company may convert the Deposit from the Approved
Investment into cash or a non-interest-bearing demand account at an Approved Institution as
follows:
(i) at any time within seven (7) days prior to the Closing Date;
or
(ii) if the Closing Date is accelerated or extended, at any time
within seven (7) days prior to the accelerated or extended Closing Date (provided, however, that
Seller and Purchaser shall give Title Company timely notice of any such acceleration or
extension and that Title Company may hold the Deposit in cash or a non-interest-bearing deposit
account if Seller and Purchaser do not give Title Company timely notice of any such
adjournment).
(g) As used herein, the term “Approved Investment” means (i) any
interest-bearing demand account or money market fund in a ____________ branch located in
___________________ or in any other institution otherwise approved by both Seller and
Purchaser (collectively, an “Approved Institution”), or (ii) any other investment approved by

deposits, withdrawals, purchases, reinvestment of any matured investment and sales shall be
made in the sole discretion of Title Company, which shall have no liability whatsoever therefor.
Discounts earned shall be deemed interest for the purpose hereof.

payment of any tax due thereon.

affect Title Company’s obligations hereunder will not be effective against or binding upon Title
Company without Title Company’s prior consent, which consent may be withheld in Title
Company’s sole and absolute discretion.

not be merged in the Deed) or earlier termination of this Agreement.
18. Assignment. This Agreement may be not assigned by Purchaser, and any

hereunder and shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign this
Agreement and its rights hereunder to a subsidiary, other controlled entity, partnership, joint
venture, management agreement, or other similar arrangement (each a “Transaction Entity”)
provided that Transaction Entity is under majority control of a qualified Applicant to the Request

EXHIBIT I
CITY STANDARD PROVISIONS
Defined Terms
Capitalized terms used in this Exhibit and not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Agreement.
Prohibited Gifts
Pursuant to Executive Order 03-11, no official or employee in the Executive and
Administrative Branch of the City shall solicit or accept, directly or indirectly, anything of value,
including any gift, gratuity, favor, entertainment or loan, from any of the following sources:
(1) A person seeking to obtain business from, or who has financial relations with, the
City;
(2) A person whose operations or activities are regulated or inspected by any City
agency;
(3) A person engaged, either as principal or attorney, in proceedings before any City
agency or in court proceedings in which the City is an adverse party;
(4) A person seeking legislative or administrative action by the City; or
(5) A person whose interests may be substantially affected by the performance or
nonperformance of the official’s or employee’s official duties.
Purchaser understands and agrees that if it offers anything of value to a City official or
employee under circumstances where the receipt of such item would violate the provisions of
this Executive Order, it shall be subject to sanctions with respect to future City contracts. Such
sanctions may range from disqualification from participation in a particular contract to
debarment, depending on the nature of the violation.
Furthermore, if Purchaser offers or gives, directly or indirectly, anything of value to any
City official or employee in violation of Executive Order 03-11, it will constitute a default by
Purchaser and entitle the City to exercise its remedies under the Agreement or any other right or
remedy available at law or in equity.
Fair Practices
Purchaser agrees, in performing the Agreement, to comply with the provisions of the Fair
Practices Ordinance (Chapter 9-1100) of The Philadelphia Code (the “Code”), as it may be
amended from time to time, which prohibits, inter alia, discrimination on the basis of race, color,
sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, national origin, ancestry, age, handicap or
marital status with respect to employment. In the event of such discrimination, the City may
exercise its remedies under the Agreement or any other right or remedy available at law or in
equity.
Nondiscrimination
(a) In accordance with Chapter 17-400 of The Philadelphia Code, Purchaser agrees
that its payment or reimbursement of membership fees or other expenses associated with
participation by its employees in an exclusionary private organization, insofar as such
participation confers an employment advantage or constitutes or results in discrimination with
regard to hiring, tenure of employment, promotions, terms, or privileges or conditions of
employment on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, national origin or
ancestry, constitutes a substantial breach of the Agreement entitling the City to exercise its
remedies under the Agreement or any other right or remedy available at law or in equity.
(b) Purchaser agrees to include subparagraph (a) of this Section, with appropriate
adjustments for the identity of the parties, in all subcontracts which are entered under the
Agreement.
(c) Purchaser further agrees to cooperate with the Commission on Human Relations
in any manner which the said Commission deems reasonable and necessary for the Commission
to carry out its responsibilities under Chapter 17-400 of the Code, and failure to do so shall
constitute a substantial breach of the Agreement entitling the City to exercise its remedies under
the Agreement or any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
Certification of Non-Indebtedness
(a) Purchaser hereby certifies and represents to the City that Purchaser, any New
Entity, and their respective parent company(ies), subsidiary(ies) and affiliate(s), if any, are not
currently indebted to the City, and will not during the Term of the Agreement be indebted to the
City, for or on account of any delinquent taxes (including, but not limited to, taxes collected by
the City on behalf of the School District of Philadelphia), liens, judgments, fees or other debts
(collectively “Indebtedness”) for which no payment plan satisfactory to the City has been
established. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to the City at law or in equity,
Purchaser acknowledges that any breach or failure to conform to this certification may, if such
breach or failure is not resolved to the City’s satisfaction within a reasonable time frame
specified by the City in writing, at the option and direction of the City, constitute a default under
the Agreement entitling Seller to exercise its remedies under the Agreement or any other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity.
(b) Purchaser shall require all contractors and subcontractors performing services in
connection with the Agreement to sign a certification of non-indebtedness in favor of the City,
which certification shall include the following provisions and the Purchaser shall cooperate with
the City in exercising the rights and remedies described below or otherwise available at law or in
equity:
“The undersigned hereby certifies and represents that the undersigned and the
undersigned’s parent company(ies) and their subsidiary(ies), are not currently
indebted to The City of Philadelphia (“City”), and will not at any time during the
Term of the agreement between the undersigned and Purchaser (the “Agreement”)
be indebted to the City, for or on account of any delinquent taxes (including, but
not limited to, taxes collected by the City on behalf of the School District of
Philadelphia), liens, judgments, fees or other debts for which no written payment
plan satisfactory to the City has been established. In addition to any other rights
or remedies available to the City at law or in equity, the undersigned
acknowledges that any breach or failure to conform to this certification may, at
the option and direction of the City, result in the withholding of payments
otherwise due to the undersigned in connection with the Agreement and, if such
breach or failure is not resolved to the City’s satisfaction within a reasonable
timeframe specified by the City in writing, may result in the offset of any such
indebtedness against said payments otherwise due to the undersigned and/or the
termination of Purchaser’s agreement with the undersigned for default (in which
case the undersigned will be liable for all excess costs and other damages
resulting from the termination).”
(c) Any breach or failure to conform to the aforesaid certifications shall constitute a
default by Purchaser and entitle the City to exercise its remedies under the Agreement or any
other right or remedy available at law or in equity.
