NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agree as follows:
| 1. | Purchase and Sale of Interests and Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Preferred Membership Seller hereby agrees to sell and transfer the Interests, and Warrant Seller hereby agrees to sell and transfer the Warrant, and Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the Interests and Warrant at a purchase price of $105,487,017.21 (the “Purchase Price”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, if the Closing (as defined below) occurs, Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall convey, transfer and assign to Purchaser all of Preferred Membership Interest Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Interests, and Warrant Seller shall convey, transfer and assign to Purchaser all of Warrant Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Warrant, and Purchaser shall accept such transfer and assignment of the Interests and Warrant. At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller the Purchase Price, as the same may be adjusted in accordance with Section 11 hereof, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the account identified by Seller on or prior to Closing. |
| (a) | Delivery of Deposit. Within two (2) business days of the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Citibank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount in cash equal to $4,000,000.00 (the “Deposit”). In the event that the Purchaser exercises Purchaser’s Extension Option in accordance with Section 3 hereof, then on or prior to the Scheduled Closing Date, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an extension deposit in cash equal to $4,000,000.00 (the “Extension Deposit”), which Extension Deposit shall become part of the Deposit in all respects for all purposes under this Agreement. The Deposit, including, the Extension Deposit, if delivered pursuant to the foregoing sentence, shall be nonrefundable to Purchaser except as expressly provided in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall not be obligated to deliver the Extension Deposit in the event that the Closing Date is extended to the Extended Closing Date following the exercise by either party of the Midtown Row Extension Option. Upon delivery by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent, the Deposit (i) will be deposited by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account (as defined below), (ii) shall bear interest at the Escrow Account’s then prevailing insured money market rates on deposits of similar size (the “Interest Rate”) from the date of such transfer through the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement and (iii) shall be held in escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to be entered into on the date hereof substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”). If the Deposit is not deposited by the Purchaser as and when due and payable hereunder, Seller shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the parties to this Agreement shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for such rights or obligations that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. |
| (b) | Disbursement of Deposit. |
| (i) | At Closing. If Closing occurs, the entirety of the Deposit plus all interest accrued thereon shall be applied as a credit against payment of the Purchase Price. |
| (ii) | Failure of Purchaser’s Conditions and/or Breach by Seller. If this Agreement is terminated due to the failure of any of Purchaser’s Conditions as set forth in Section 8, then provided that Purchaser is not otherwise in default under this Agreement and subject to the terms of Section 2(b)(vi) below, the Deposit (and all interest accrued thereon) shall be disbursed to the Purchaser. In addition to the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser following the breach by Seller of its obligations pursuant to Section 8(a) (Representations and Warranties), Section 8(b) (Performance), Section 8(c) (Warrant), Section 8(e) (Interests), Section 8(f) (Registration Rights Agreement, Governance Agreement and Cash Flow Pledge Assignment Agreement), Section 8(g) (Resignation of Seller’s Director and Board Observer), Section 8(h) (Warrant), or Section 8(i) (IRS Form W-9), then in addition to Purchaser’s right to receive the Deposit in accordance with the preceding sentence, Preferred Membership Interest Seller and Warrant Seller, jointly and not severally, shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as liquidated damages resulting from such breach by Preferred Membership Interest Seller’s or Warrant Seller’s (the foregoing reimbursement, the “Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Expense Reimbursement”), provided, however, that in any event the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Expense Reimbursement, in aggregate with the Mezzanine Note Expense Reimbursement (as defined in the Note Sale and Assignment Agreement), shall not exceed an amount equal to $250,000.00. In the event that the Purchaser is entitled to receive the Deposit (and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate) in accordance with this Section 2(b)(ii), each of the Seller and Purchaser covenants and agrees that it shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) business days after valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10, execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse from the Escrow Account to the Purchaser (or, if instructed by Purchaser in writing, its assignee) an amount in cash equal to the Deposit and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by the Purchaser (or its assignee). |
| (iii) | Failure of Seller’s Conditions and/or Breach by Purchaser. Subject to Section 2(b)(v), if this Agreement is terminated due to the failure of any of Seller’s Conditions as set forth in Section 7, then provided that Seller is not otherwise in default under this Agreement, the Deposit (and all interest accrued thereon) shall be disbursed to the Seller and the Seller’s sole remedy shall be to receive the Deposit as liquidated damages. In the event that the Seller is entitled to receive the Deposit (and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate) as set forth in the preceding sentence, each of the Seller and Purchaser covenants and agrees that it shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) business days after valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10, execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse from the Escrow Account to the Seller (or, if instructed by Seller in writing, its assignee) an amount in cash equal to the Deposit and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by the Seller (or its assignee). |
| (iv) | Broad Street Deposit Reimbursement. In the event that the Seller or Purchaser terminates this Agreement due to Broad Street failing to deliver any of the Broad Street Waiver and Release (provided, that Fortress shall have delivered the Fortress Waiver and Release into escrow to be released upon the occurrence of the Closing), the Replacement Warrant, the Warrant Assignment Agreement, the Interest Assignment Agreement or the Registration Rights, Governance and Cash Flow Pledge Assignment Agreement, or failing to timely deliver the Midtown Row Senior Consent Request in accordance with, or a breach by Broad Street of the Midtown Row Senior Consent Covenant in accordance with Section 17(r) or the Replacement Recognition Agreement Covenant in accordance with Section 17(s), Broad Street shall reimburse Purchaser for the Deposit (and all interest accrued thereon) paid to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by Purchaser no later than two (2) business days following termination of this Agreement. Additionally, Preferred Membership Interest Seller hereby irrevocably consents and Broad Street hereby agrees to the release by Broad Street for the purpose of Broad Street reimbursing Purchaser for the Deposit (and all interest accrued thereon) in accordance with this Section 2(b)(iv) of any funds maintained, held or existing in any accounts (A) of Broad Street, or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, and/or (B) held by Broad Street, or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Accounts”), for the benefit of Preferred Membership Interest Seller. Further, Preferred Membership Interest Seller hereby irrevocably waives any consent or approval rights granted to Preferred Membership Interest Seller under the LLC Agreement relating to the disbursement of funds maintained, held or existing in any Company Accounts for the benefit of Preferred Membership Interest Seller for the purposes of this Section 2(b)(iv). In furtherance of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, Broad Street hereby consents and agrees to, and hereby directs, the disbursement of funds from the Company Accounts to reimburse Purchaser for the Deposit in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2(b)(iv). |
| (v) | Disbursement Following Failure of the Restricted Party Condition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2(b)(iii) hereof, in the event that this Agreement is terminated due to the failure of the Restricted Party Condition as set forth in the first sentence of Section 7(i) (Restricted Party Screening Form), but notwithstanding the failure of the Restricted Party Condition Purchaser has timely delivered the Restricted Party Screening Form as required therein, together with all documentation required to be delivered pursuant thereto as detailed therein, then the Deposit (and all interest accrued thereon) shall be disbursed to the Purchaser. In the event that the Purchaser is entitled to receive the Deposit (and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate) in accordance with the preceding sentence, each of the Seller and Purchaser covenants and agrees that it shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) business days after valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10, execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse from the Escrow Account to the Purchaser (or, if instructed by Purchaser in writing, its assignee) an amount in cash equal to the Deposit and all amounts accrued thereon at the Interest Rate by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated in writing by the Purchaser (or its assignee). |
| (vi) | Disbursement Following Breach of the Midtown Row Senior Consent Covenant.

| 13. | Purchaser’s Indemnities. Subject to Section 14, Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and attorneys, from and against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including reasonable, out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs) directly or indirectly arising out of, based upon, resulting from or otherwise relating to (a) the inaccuracy of any of Purchaser’s representations or warranties herein, (b) the breach of any of Purchaser’s covenants or other obligations in this Agreement, or (c) any commissions, finder’s fees or similar fees due or claimed by any broker, agent or salesperson claimed directly against either Seller or Purchaser or as a result of an agreement entered into by Purchaser.

| (a) | Survival of Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall not be merged into the execution and delivery of any documents at Closing, and shall survive the Closing to the extent set forth in Section 15 hereof. |
| (b) | Severability. If any term, condition or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term, condition or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. |
| (c) | Complete Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Note Sale and Assignment Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and their affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. |
| (d) | Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or other applicable law) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes. |
| (e) | Assignment; Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. |
| (f) | No Third Party Beneficiaries or Other Rights. No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any person or other entity, other than the parties hereto and their permitted assigns, any rights or remedies hereunder. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto, and no former, current or future equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future equityholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, advisor, agent or affiliate of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other party hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages in respect of any breach of this Agreement from, any Non-Recourse Party. |
| (g) | Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that State, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of laws principles. All legal or administrative proceeding, suit, investigation, arbitration or action (“Actions”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over any Action, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 17(g) shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this Section 17(g) and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any person or entity other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 16 of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment. |
| (h) | Mutuality of Drafting. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. |
| (i) | Remedies. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement, that any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall cause the other parties irreparable harm, and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or deposit) for specific performance or other injunctive relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions of this Agreement. |
| (j) | Amendment and Waiver. Subject to compliance with applicable law, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects only by written agreement of the parties hereto. |
| (k) | Extension of Time, Waiver, Etc. Seller and Purchaser may, subject to applicable law, (i) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, (ii) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other party or (iii) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements contained herein applicable to such party or, except as otherwise provided herein, waive any of such party’s conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by Seller or Purchaser in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. |
| (l) | Further Assurances. Each of Seller and Purchaser shall execute and deliver such reasonable additional documents and instruments and shall take such further action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate fully the provisions of this Agreement. |
| (m) | Confidentiality. Each of Seller and Purchaser agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, it will not disclose the existence or contents of this Agreement to any person or entity, except that any party may make any such disclosure (i) to the extent it determines in good faith that it is required to do so by any law, regulation, legal process, contractual obligation in existence as of the date of this Agreement or any other legal obligation imposed by a governmental or self-regulatory authority, (ii) to any banking, regulatory, self-regulatory or examining authority having or asserting jurisdiction over it or any of its affiliates, (iii) to its affiliates and its and its affiliates’ respective employees, professional advisors, auditors, potential investors and investors subject to confidentiality obligations and banks and other financing sources (provided that each such person or entity shall be instructed to keep such disclosed information confidential on the same terms as provided in this Agreement), (iv) to the extent necessary to effectuate the transfer of the Interests and Warrant as contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, to Broad Street and its affiliates and any other third party necessary in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or (v) to enforce its rights hereunder. |
| (n) | WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. |
| (o) | Expenses. Each of Seller and Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that expenses in connection with the drafting, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses; provided that all recording or filing fees, transfer taxes, documentary taxes or other costs necessitated by the sale of the Interests and Warrant pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid solely by Purchaser. |
| (p) | Time of Essence. All parties hereto agree that time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement. |
| (q) | Broad Street Consent. Broad Street hereby approves and consents to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such approval and consent, the “Broad Street Consent”) and hereby covenants and agrees not to revoke the Broad Street Consent prior to the Closing hereunder. In connection with the Broad Street Consent, Broad Street shall deliver to Seller on the Closing Date a duly executed copy of the Broad Street Waiver and Release, dated as of the Closing Date, and hereby waives any approval rights it may have pursuant to the LLC Agreement and the Warrant with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the rights set forth in Section 9.2 of the LLC Agreement with respect to the transfer of the Preferred Membership Interests, and Section 12 of the Warrant with respect to the assignment of the Warrant. Broad Street acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute either a waiver or a release of any circumstance, right or remedy of Seller, or Purchaser following Closing, under any of the LLC Agreement, the Warrant, the Investment Agreement, the Governance Agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, or constitute a course of dealing between either Preferred Membership Interest Seller or Warrant Seller, and Purchaser following Closing, and Broad Street or Common Member, and each of Preferred Membership Interest Seller and Warrant Seller, and Purchaser following Closing, expressly reserves all of its rights, powers and remedies provided for in the LLC Agreement, the Investment Agreement, the Governance Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and at law or in equity. Broad Street shall execute and deliver such reasonable additional documents and instruments and shall take such further action as may be deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by Seller to effectuate fully the provisions of this Agreement at Closing, including, without limitation, to re-affirm the Broad Street Consent. At the Closing hereunder, Seller shall deliver to Broad Street a written waiver and release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Fortress Waiver and Release”). |
| (r) | Midtown Row Senior Consent. Each of Preferred Membership Interest Seller, Purchaser and Broad Street acknowledge that consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will be required from American General Life Insurance Company and The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company, as senior lender under the Midtown Row Mortgage Loan (the “Midtown Row Senior Lender”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Midtown Row Mortgage Loan Documents (such consent, the “Midtown Row Senior Consent”). No later than three (3) business days following the date hereof, Broad Street shall deliver to Midtown Row Senior Lender a written request for the Midtown Row Senior Consent in accordance with the requirements of the Midtown Row Mortgage Documents (the “Midtown Row Senior Consent Request”). Each of Broad Street and Purchaser shall cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy any and all requests for information required by the Midtown Row Senior Lender in connection with the Midtown Row Senior Consent and Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Broad Street and Purchaser in connection with their pursuit of the Midtown Row Senior Consent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the parties hereto shall be required to commence or threaten litigation against Midtown Row Senior Lender in connection therewith (the foregoing obligations, the “Midtown Row Senior Consent Covenant”). |
| (s) | Recognition Agreements. Preferred Membership Interest Seller acknowledges that in connection with the Closing hereunder Purchaser may desire to enter into new recognition agreements in form substantially similar to the Recognition Agreements currently in effect with respect to the Mortgage Loans (such new recognition agreements, “Replacement Recognition Agreements”). Broad Street and Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall reasonably cooperate in good faith with Purchaser in connection with their pursuit of such Replacement Recognition Agreements (the “Replacement Recognition Agreement Covenant”), provided, however, that Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the Replacement Recognition Agreement Covenant solely by facilitating introductions between Purchaser and each lender under the Mortgage Loans for purposes of pursuing such Replacement Recognition Agreements. Purchaser shall keep Preferred Membership Interest Seller reasonably apprised as to the status of any such Replacement Recognition Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the delivery of any such Replacement Recognition Agreements shall not be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. |
| (t) | Deposit Account Control Agreement. Preferred Membership Interest Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may desire to take assignment of the Deposit Account Control Agreement in connection with the Closing hereunder, which assignment will require the prior written consent of Account Bank. Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to facilitate introductions between Purchaser and Account Bank for purposes of pursuing such consent from Account Bank. In the event that Account Bank consents to such assignment, then Preferred Membership Interest Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an assignment of the Deposit Account Control Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Preferred Membership Interest Seller and Purchaser (the “DACA Assignment”), which DACA Assignment shall provide that Preferred Membership Interest Seller is assigning its interests in the Deposit Account Control Agreement to Purchaser on an “as-is” basis, without representation or warranty. In the event that Account Bank rejects such request for consent, or fails to provide such consent on the date that is three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, then Preferred Membership Interest Seller, at Purchaser’s request, shall deliver a termination of the DACA to Account Bank promptly following Closing. Purchaser shall keep Preferred Membership Interest Seller reasonably apprised as to the status of the DACA Assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the delivery of the DACA Assignment shall not be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. |
| (u) | Release of Seller. Purchaser hereby releases and forever discharges Seller, its agents, servants, directors, managers, members, principals, officers, employees, servicers, attorneys, successors, assigns and affiliates (all such persons being collectively referred to as “Related Persons”), of and from any and all causes of action, claims, demands and remedies of whatever kind and nature that Purchaser has or may in the future have against Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, and in any manner on account of, arising out of or related to the Interests and the Warrant purchased and the rights assigned hereunder except for claims or causes of action arising by reason of Seller’s breach of this Agreement (collectively, the “Released Matters”). It is the intention of Purchaser that the foregoing general release shall be effective as a bar to all actions, causes of action, suits, claims or demands of every kind, nature or character whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, fixed or contingent, arising out of or in connection with the Released Matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing general release shall not apply to any representations, warranties, covenants, or indemnities of Seller that expressly survive Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, subject in any event to Section 14 hereof, or any other obligations of Seller under this Agreement. This Section 17(u) shall survive the Closing hereunder. |

Unless otherwise specified, capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement (as defined below).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Broad Street Realty, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Broad Street”), and CF Flyer PE Investor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Preferred Membership Interest Seller”), have previously entered into a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock, dated as of November 22, 2022, as assigned by Preferred Membership Interest Seller to Assignor pursuant to that certain Instruction of Assignment, dated as of December 15, 2022 (as amended, the “Warrant Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, Assignor, Assignee and Broad Street entered into that certain Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of January 31, 2025 (the “Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement provides for the sale, assignment and transfer by Assignor to Assignee of the warrant to purchase 2,560,000 shares of common stock of Broad Street as set forth in the Warrant Agreement (as amended, the “Warrant”), including all rights and obligations of Assignor under and pursuant to the Warrant.
NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for the Purchase Price set forth in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement and such other good and valuable consideration as provided in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement:
1. Assignment and Assumption. Assignor hereby conveys, transfers and assigns all of Assignor’s right, title and interest, and except as set forth in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement and any documents delivered in connection therewith, without recourse, in, to and under the Warrant, and Assignee hereby accepts such transfer and assignment of the Warrant.
2. Assignment and Assumption of Warrant Agreement. Following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement, Assignee hereby assumes the rights of Assignor under the Warrant Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of the Warrant Agreement.
3. Subject to such other additional provisions, limitations, disclaimers, waivers, representation and warranties and qualifications as may be further set forth in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement, such transfer is made on an “AS IS”, “WHERE IS” BASIS, “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND WITHOUT REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY TYPE, KIND, CHARACTER OR NATURE, AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY TYPE, KIND, CHARACTER OR NATURE AND WITHOUT RECOURSE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY TYPE, KIND, CHARACTER OR NATURE.
4. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to the Warrant, together with any and all related documentation, if any, Assignor hereby disclaims and disavows any express or implied warranty of merchantability and any express or implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.
5. Replacement Warrant. Upon the delivery to Assignee of this Agreement and the new Warrant in the name of Assignee (delivered in accordance with Section 12 of the Warrant Agreement), and except as set forth in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement and any documents delivered in connection therewith, without recourse except as expressly provided in the Preferred Membership Interest and Warrant Purchase Agreement, the assignment of the Warrant will occur automatically, at which time Assignee will be entitled to exercise all rights and powers previously granted to Assignor under the Warrant Agreement.
