PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” and “Alexander’s” refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO).

We have seven properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area consisting of:

Operating properties

•

731 Lexington Avenue, a 1,311,000 square foot multi-use building, comprising the entire block bounded by Lexington Avenue, East 59 ^th Street, Third Avenue and East 58 ^th Street in Manhattan. The building contains 889,000 and 174,000 of net rentable square feet of office and retail space, respectively, which we own, and 248,000 square feet of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units, which we sold. Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) occupies all of the office space. The Home Depot (83,000 square feet), The Container Store (34,000 square feet) and Hennes & Mauritz (27,000 square feet) are the principal retail tenants;

•

Rego Park I, a 343,000 square foot shopping center, located on Queens Boulevard and 63 ^rd Road in Queens. On April 4, 2017, Sears closed its 195,000 square foot anchor store at the property ($10,300,000 of annual revenue). On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. The center is also anchored by a 50,000 square foot Burlington, a 46,000 square foot Bed Bath & Beyond and a 36,000 square foot Marshalls;

•

Rego Park II, a 609,000 square foot shopping center, adjacent to the Rego Park I shopping center in Queens. The center is anchored by a 145,000 square foot Costco, a 135,000 square foot Century 21 and a 133,000 square foot Kohl’s. On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its store at the property; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031. On September 18, 2017, Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“Toys”), a one-third owned affiliate of Vornado as of December 31, 2018, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief. On June 30, 2018, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at the property ($2,600,000 of annual revenue) and possession of the space was returned to us;


•	The Alexander apartment tower, located above our Rego Park II shopping center, contains 312 units aggregating 255,000 square feet;


•	Paramus, located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey, consists of 30.3 acres of land that is leased to IKEA Property, Inc.; and


•	Flushing, a 167,000 square foot building, located on Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in Queens, that is sub-leased to New World Mall LLC for the remainder of our ground lease term.

Property to be developed


•	Rego Park III, a 140,000 square foot land parcel adjacent to the Rego Park II shopping center in Queens, at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and the Horace Harding Service Road.

Relationship with Vornado

We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to various agreements which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable. Vornado is a fully-integrated REIT with significant experience in managing, leasing, developing, and operating retail and office properties.

Relationship with Vornado - continued

As of December 31, 2018 , Vornado owned 32.4% of our outstanding common stock. Steven Roth is the Chairman of our Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, the Managing General Partner of Interstate Properties (“Interstate”), a New Jersey general partnership, and the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado. As of December 31, 2018, Mr. Roth, Interstate and its other two general partners, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. (who are also directors of the Company and trustees of Vornado) owned, in the aggregate, 26.2% of our outstanding common stock, in addition to the 2.3% they indirectly own through Vornado. Joseph Macnow, our Treasurer, is the Executive Vice President - Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer of Vornado. Matthew Iocco, our Chief Financial Officer, is the Executive Vice President - Chief Accounting Officer of Vornado.

Significant Tenant

Bloomberg accounted for revenue of $107,356,000, $105,224,000 and $104,590,000 in the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively, representing approximately 46% of our total revenues in each year. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive environment. All of our properties are located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. We compete with a large number of property owners and developers. Principal factors of competition are the amount of rent charged, attractiveness of location and quality and breadth of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.

Employees

We currently have 70 employees.

Executive Office

Our executive office is located at 210 Route 4 East, Paramus, New Jersey, 07652 and our telephone number is (201) 587-8541.

Available Information

Copies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports, as well as Reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5 regarding officers, directors, and 10% beneficial owners filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a), 15(d) or 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are available free of charge on our website (www.alx-inc.com) as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Also available on our website are copies of our Audit Committee Charter, Compensation Committee Charter, Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Corporate Governance Guidelines. In the event of any changes to these items, revised copies will be made available on our website. Copies of these documents are also available directly from us, free of charge.

In May 2009, Vornado and Interstate each filed with the SEC an amendment to their respective Schedule 13D indicating that they, as a group, own 47.2% of our common stock. This ownership level, together with the shares owned by Messrs. Roth, Mandelbaum and Wight, makes us a “controlled” company for the purposes of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.’s Corporate Governance Standards (the “NYSE Rules”). This means that we are not required to, among other things, have a majority of the members of our Board of Directors be independent under the NYSE Rules, have all of the members of our Compensation Committee be independent under the NYSE Rules or to have a Nominating Committee. While we have voluntarily complied with a majority of the independence requirements of the NYSE Rules, we are under no obligation to do so and this situation may change at any time.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Material factors that may adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition are summarized below. The risks and uncertainties described herein may not be the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition. See “Forward-Looking Statements” contained herein on page 4.

OUR INVESTMENTS ARE CONCENTRATED IN THE GREATER NEW YORK CITY METROPOLITAN AREA. CIRCUMSTANCES AFFECTING THIS AREA GENERALLY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

All of our properties are in the greater New York City metropolitan area and are affected by the economic cycles and risks inherent in that area.

All of our revenues come from properties located in the greater New York City metropolitan area. Real estate markets are subject to economic downturns and we cannot predict how economic conditions will impact this market in either the short or long term. Declines in the economy or declines in the real estate market in this area could hurt our financial performance and the value of our properties. In addition to the factors affecting the national economic condition generally, the factors affecting economic conditions in this area include:


•	financial performance and productivity of the media, advertising, professional services, financial, technology, retail, insurance and real estate industries;


•	business layoffs or downsizing;


•	industry slowdowns;


•	relocations of businesses;


•	changing demographics;


•	increased telecommuting and use of alternative work places;


•	changes in the number of domestic and international tourists to our markets (including, as a result of changes in the relative strengths of world currencies);


•	infrastructure quality;


•	changes in the rates or treatment of the deductibility of state and local taxes; and


•	any oversupply of, or reduced demand for, real estate.

It is impossible for us to assess the future effects of trends in the economic and investment climates of the greater New York City metropolitan region, and more generally of the United States, on the real estate market in this area. Local, national or global economic downturns could negatively affect our business and profitability.

We are subject to risks that affect the general and New York City retail environments.

Certain of our properties are New York City retail properties. As such, these properties are affected by the general and New York City retail environments, including the level of consumer spending and consumer confidence, change in relative strengths of world currencies, the threat of terrorism, increasing competition from discount retailers, outlet malls, retail websites and catalog companies and the impact of technological change upon the retail environment generally. These factors could adversely affect the financial condition of our retail tenants, or result in the bankruptcy of such tenants, and the willingness of retailers to lease space in our retail locations.

Terrorist attacks may adversely affect the value of our properties and our ability to generate cash flow.

All of our properties are located in the greater New York City metropolitan area, and our most significant property, 731 Lexington Avenue, is located on Lexington Avenue and 59 ^th Street in Manhattan. In response to a terrorist attack or the perceived threat of terrorism, tenants in this area may choose to relocate their businesses to less populated, lower-profile areas of the United States that may be perceived to be less likely targets of future terrorist activity and fewer customers may choose to patronize businesses in this area. This, in turn, could trigger a decrease in the demand for space in these markets, which could increase vacancies in our properties and force us to lease our properties on less favorable terms. Furthermore, we may experience increased costs for security, equipment and personnel. As a result, the value of our properties and the level of our revenues could decline materially.

Natural disasters and the effects of climate change could have a concentrated impact on the area which we operate and could adversely impact our results.

Our investments are in the greater New York City metropolitan area and since they are concentrated along the Eastern Seaboard, natural disasters, including hurricanes, could impact our properties. Potentially adverse consequences of “global warming” could similarly have an impact on our properties. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for office space in our buildings or the inability of us to operate the buildings at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy at our properties and requiring us to expend funds as we seek to repair and protect our properties against such risks. The incurrence of these losses, costs or business interruptions may adversely affect our operating and financial results.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS’ VALUE AND INCOME FLUCTUATE DUE TO VARIOUS FACTORS.

The value of real estate fluctuates depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate business. These conditions may also adversely impact our revenues and cash flows.

The factors that affect the value of our real estate include, among other things:


•	global, national, regional and local economic conditions;


•	competition from other available space;


•	local conditions such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area;


•	how well we manage our properties;


•	the development and/or redevelopment of our properties;


•	changes in market rental rates;


•	the timing and costs associated with property improvements and rentals;


•	whether we are able to pass all or portions of any increases in operating costs through to tenants;


•	changes in real estate taxes and other expenses;


•	whether tenants and users such as customers and shoppers consider a property attractive;


•	changes in consumer preferences adversely affecting retailers and retail store values;


•	changes in space utilization by our tenants due to technology, economic conditions and business environment;


•	the financial condition of our tenants, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;


•	trends in office real estate;


•	the impact on our retail tenants and demand for retail space at our properties due to increased competition from online shopping;


•	availability of financing on acceptable terms or at all;


•	inflation or deflation;


•	fluctuations in interest rates;


•	our ability to obtain adequate insurance;


•	changes in zoning laws and taxation;


•	government regulation;


•	consequences of any armed conflict involving, or terrorist attack against, the United States or individual acts of violence in public spaces, including retail centers;


•	potential liability under environmental or other laws or regulations;


•	natural disasters;


•	general competitive factors; and


•	climate changes.

The rents we receive and the occupancy levels at our properties may decline as a result of adverse changes in any of these factors. If our rental revenues and/or occupancy levels decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay our indebtedness and for distribution to our stockholders. In addition, some of our major expenses, including mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs generally do not decline when the related rents decline.

Capital markets and economic conditions can materially affect our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations as well as the value of an investment in our debt and equity securities.

There are many factors that can affect the value of our equity securities and any debt securities we may issue in the future, including the state of the capital markets and economy. Demand for office and retail space may decline nationwide due to an economic downturn, bankruptcies, downsizing, layoffs and cost cutting. Government action or inaction may adversely affect the state of the capital markets. The cost and availability of credit may be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets and wider credit spreads, which may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, including our results of operations, and the liquidity and financial condition of our tenants. Our inability or the inability of our tenants to timely refinance maturing liabilities and access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs may materially affect our financial condition and results of operations and the value of our equity securities and any debt securities we may issue in the future.

U.S. federal tax reform legislation now and in the future could affect REITs generally, the geographic markets in which we operate, the trading of our shares and our results of operations, both positively and negatively, in ways that are difficult to anticipate.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Act”) represented sweeping tax reform legislation that made significant changes to corporate and individual tax rates and the calculation of taxes, as well as international tax rules. As a REIT, we are generally not required to pay federal taxes otherwise applicable to regular corporations if we comply with the various tax regulations governing REITs. Shareholders, however, are generally required to pay taxes on REIT dividends. The 2017 Act and future tax reform legislation could impact our share price or how shareholders and potential investors view an investment in REITs. For example, the decrease in corporate tax rates in the 2017 Act could decrease the attractiveness of the REIT structure relative to companies that are not organized as REITs. In addition, while certain elements of the 2017 Act do not impact us directly as a REIT, they could impact the geographic markets in which we operate as well as our tenants in ways, both positive and negative, that are difficult to anticipate. For example, the limitation in the 2017 Act on the deductibility of certain state and local taxes may make operating in jurisdictions that impose such taxes at higher rates less desirable than operating in jurisdictions imposing such taxes at lower rates. The overall impact of the 2017 Act also depends on the future interpretations and regulations that may be issued by U.S. tax authorities, and it is possible that future guidance could adversely impact us.

Real estate is a competitive business.

We compete with a large number of real estate property owners and developers, some of which may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Principal factors of competition are rents charged, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and the breadth and the quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels.

We may be adversely affected by trends in office real estate.

Telecommuting, flexible work schedules, open workplaces and teleconferencing are becoming more common. These practices enable businesses to reduce their office space requirements. There is also an increasing trend among some businesses to utilize shared office spaces and co-working spaces. A continuation of these trends could, over time, erode the overall demand for office space and, in turn, place downward pressure on occupancy, rental rates and property valuations.

We depend on leasing space to tenants on economically favorable terms and collecting rent from tenants who may not be able to pay.

Our financial results depend significantly on leasing space in our properties to tenants on economically favorable terms. In addition, because a majority of our income is derived from renting real property, our income, funds available to pay indebtedness and for distributions to stockholders will decrease if certain of our tenants cannot pay their rent or if we are not able to maintain our occupancy levels on favorable terms. If a tenant does not pay its rent, we might not be able to enforce our rights as landlord without delays and might incur substantial legal and other costs. During periods of economic adversity for retailers or otherwise, there may be an increase in the number of tenants that cannot pay their rent, become insolvent or file for bankruptcy, all of which can result in an increase in vacancy rates and lower income and funds available to pay indebtedness and for distributions to stockholders.

Bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants may decrease our revenues, net income and available cash.

From time to time, some of our tenants have declared bankruptcy, and other tenants may declare bankruptcy or become insolvent in the future. The bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant could cause us to have difficulty leasing the remainder of the affected property. Our leases generally do not contain restrictions designed to ensure the creditworthiness of our tenants. As a result, the bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant or multiple tenants could result in a lower level of net income and funds available to pay our indebtedness or make distributions to stockholders.

We depend upon anchor tenants to attract shoppers at our Rego Park I and II retail properties and decisions made by these tenants, or adverse developments in the businesses of these tenants, could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our Rego Park I and II retail properties are anchored by well-known department stores and other tenants who generate shopping traffic. The value of these properties would be adversely affected if our anchor tenants failed to meet their contractual obligations, sought concessions in order to continue operations or ceased their operations, including as a result of bankruptcy. If the level of sales of stores operating in our properties were to decline significantly due to economic conditions, increased competition from online shopping, closing of anchors or for other reasons, tenants may be unable to pay their minimum rents or expense recovery charges. In the event of a default by a tenant or anchor, we may experience delays and costs in enforcing our rights as landlord. Additionally, closure of an anchor or major tenant could result in lease terminations by, or reductions of rent from, other tenants if the other tenants’ leases have co-tenancy clauses. On April 4, 2017, Sears closed its 195,000 square foot store at our Rego Park I shopping center ($10,300,000 of annual revenue). On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its 133,000 square foot store at our Rego Park II shopping center; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031.

We may be unable to renew leases or relet space as leases expire.

When our tenants decide not to renew their leases upon their expiration, we may not be able to relet the space. Even if tenants do renew or we can relet the space, the terms of renewal or reletting, taking into account among other things, the cost of improvements to the property and leasing commissions, may be less favorable than the terms in the expired leases. In addition, changes in space utilization by our tenants may impact our ability to renew or relet space without the need to incur substantial costs in renovating or redesigning the internal configuration of the relevant property. If we are unable to promptly renew the leases or relet the space at similar rates or if we incur substantial costs in renewing or reletting the space, our cash flow and ability to service debt obligations and pay dividends and distributions to stockholders could be adversely affected.

731 Lexington Avenue accounts for a substantial portion of our revenues. Loss of or damage to the building would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

731 Lexington Avenue accounted for revenue of $151,834,000, $148,324,000 and $147,567,000 in the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively, representing approximately 65%, 64% and 65% of our total revenues in each year, respectively. Loss of or damage to the building in excess of our insurance coverage, including as a result of a terrorist attack, would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Bloomberg represents a significant portion of our revenues. Loss of Bloomberg as a tenant or deterioration in Bloomberg’s credit quality could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We face risks associated with our tenants being designated “Prohibited Persons” by the Office of Foreign Assets Control and similar requirements.

Pursuant to Executive Order 13224 and other laws, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) maintains a list of persons designated as terrorists or who are otherwise blocked or banned (“Prohibited Persons”) from conducting business or engaging in transactions in the United States and thereby restricts our doing business with such persons. In addition, our leases, loans and other agreements may require us to comply with OFAC and related requirements, and any failure to do so may result in a breach of such agreements. If a tenant or other party with whom we conduct business is placed on the OFAC list or is otherwise a party with whom we are prohibited from doing business, we may be required to terminate the lease or other agreement or face other penalties. Any such termination could result in a loss of revenue or otherwise negatively affect our financial results and cash flows.

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of system failures.

Despite system redundancy, the implementation of security measures and the existence of a disaster recovery plan for our internal information technology systems, our systems are vulnerable to damages from any number of sources, including computer viruses, unauthorized access, energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication failures. Any system failure or accident that causes interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption to our business. We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions.

The occurrence of cyber incidents, or a deficiency in our cyber security, could negatively impact our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, and/or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our financial results.

We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons who access our systems from inside or outside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Although we have not experienced cyber incidents that are individually, or in the aggregate, material, we have experienced cyber attacks in the past, which have thus far been mitigated by preventative, detective, and responsive measures that we have put in place. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Unauthorized parties, whether within or outside our company, may disrupt or gain access to our systems, or those of third parties with whom we do business, through human error, misfeasance, fraud, trickery, or other forms of deceit, including break-ins, use of stolen credentials, social engineering, phishing, computer viruses or other malicious codes, and similar means of unauthorized and destructive tampering. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk.

A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems and therefore our operations and/or those of certain of our tenants; result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of, proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or which could expose us to damage claims by third-parties for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes; result in our inability to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants for the efficient use of their leased space; require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result; subject us to litigation claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, fines, penalties, governmental investigations and enforcement actions or termination of leases or other agreements; or damage our reputation among our tenants and investors generally. Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

A cyber attack could interfere with our ability to comply with the financial reporting requirements, which could adversely affect us. A cyber attack could also compromise the confidential information of our employees, tenants, customers and vendors. A successful attack could disrupt and materially affect our business operations, including damaging relationships with tenants, customers and vendors. Any compromise of our information security systems could also result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, loss or misuse of the information (which may be confidential, proprietary and/or commercially sensitive in nature) and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business.

We may incur significant costs to comply with environmental laws and environmental contamination may impair our ability to lease and/or sell real estate.

Our operations and properties are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations concerning the protection of the environment, including air and water quality, hazardous or toxic substances and health and safety. Under some environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances released at a property. The owner or operator may also be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage or personal injuries and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by those parties because of the contamination. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of the release of the substances or caused the release. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may also impair our ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Other laws and regulations govern indoor and outdoor air quality including those that can require the abatement or removal of asbestos-containing materials in the event of damage, demolition, renovation or remodeling and also govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. The maintenance and removal of lead paint and certain electrical equipment containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are also regulated by federal and state laws. We are also subject to risks associated with human exposure to chemical or biological contaminants such as molds, pollens, viruses and bacteria which, above certain levels, can be alleged to be connected to allergic or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals. We could incur fines for environmental compliance and be held liable for the costs of remedial action with respect to the foregoing regulated substances or related claims arising out of environmental contamination or human exposure to contamination at or from our properties.

Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment. To date, these environmental assessments have not revealed any environmental condition material to our business. However, identification of new compliance concerns or undiscovered areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, human exposure to contamination or changes in clean-up or compliance requirements could result in significant costs to us.

In addition, we may become subject to costs or taxes, or increases therein, associated with natural resource or energy usage (such as a “carbon tax”). These costs or taxes could increase our operating costs and decrease the cash available to pay our obligations or distribute to equity holders.

Some of our potential losses may not be covered by insurance.

We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and per property, and all-risk property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.7 billion per occurrence, including coverage for acts of terrorism, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties.

Fifty Ninth Street Insurance Company, LLC (“FNSIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act, which expires in December 2020. Coverage for acts of terrorism (including NBCR acts) is up to $1.7 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to FNSIC. For NBCR acts, FNSIC is responsible for a $323,000 deductible and 19% of the balance of a covered loss, and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 81% of a covered loss. We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by FNSIC.

We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism or other events. However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for uninsured losses and for deductibles and losses in excess of our insurance coverage, which could be material.

Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us and contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance or refinance our properties.

Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) or other safety regulations and requirements could result in substantial costs.

The ADA generally requires that public buildings, including our properties, meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants and/or legal fees to their counsel. If, under the ADA, we are required to make substantial alterations and capital expenditures in one or more of our properties, including the removal of access barriers, it could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the amount of cash available for distribution to stockholders.

Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements. If we fail to comply with these requirements, we could incur fines or private damage awards. We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures that will affect our cash flow and results of operations.

Changes in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined and potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 may affect our financial results.

The chief executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, has recently announced that the FCA intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. It is not possible to predict the effect of these changes, other reforms or the establishment of alternative reference rates in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Furthermore, in the United States, efforts to identify a set of alternative U.S. dollar reference interest rates include proposals by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. On August 24, 2017, the Federal Reserve Board requested public comment on a proposal by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in cooperation with the Office of Financial Research, to produce three new reference rates intended to serve as alternatives to LIBOR. These alternative rates are based on overnight repurchase agreement transactions secured by U.S. Treasury Securities.

Any changes announced by the FCA, other regulators or any other successor governance or oversight body, or future changes adopted by such body, in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in the reported LIBOR rates. If that were to occur, the level of interest payments we incur may change. In addition, although certain of our LIBOR based obligations provide for alternative methods of calculating the interest rate payable on certain of our obligations if LIBOR is not reported, which include requesting certain rates from major reference banks in London or New York, or alternatively using LIBOR for the immediately preceding interest period or using the initial interest rate, as applicable, uncertainty as to the extent and manner of future changes may result in interest rates and/or payments that are higher than, lower than or that do not otherwise correlate over time with the interest rates and/or payments that would have been made on our obligations if LIBOR rate was available in its current form.

WE MAY ACQUIRE OR SELL ASSETS OR DEVELOP PROPERTIES. OUR FAILURE OR INABILITY TO CONSUMMATE THESE TRANSACTIONS OR MANAGE THE RESULTS OF THESE TRANSACTIONS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL RESULTS.

We may acquire, develop, or redevelop properties and this may create risks.

Although our stated business strategy is not to engage in acquisitions, we may acquire or develop properties when we believe that an acquisition or development project is otherwise consistent with our business strategy. We may not succeed in (i) developing, redeveloping or acquiring properties; (ii) completing these activities on time or within budget; and (iii) leasing or selling developed, redeveloped or acquired properties at amounts sufficient to cover our costs. Competition in these activities could also significantly increase our costs. Difficulties in integrating acquisitions may prove costly or time-consuming and could divert management’s attention. Acquisitions or developments in new markets or types of properties where we do not have the same level of market knowledge may result in weaker than anticipated performance. We may also abandon acquisition or development opportunities that we have begun pursuing and consequently fail to recover expenses already incurred. Furthermore, we may be exposed to the liabilities of properties acquired, some of which we may not be aware of at the time of acquisition.

It may be difficult to buy and sell real estate quickly, which may limit our flexibility.

Real estate investments are relatively difficult to buy and sell quickly. Consequently, we may have limited ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. Moreover, our ability to buy, sell, or finance real estate assets may be adversely affected during periods of uncertainty or unfavorable conditions in the credit markets as we, or potential buyers of our assets, may experience difficulty in obtaining financing.

We have an investment in marketable equity securities. The value of this investment may decline as a result of operating performance or economic or market conditions.

We have an investment in Macerich, a retail shopping center company. As of December 31, 2018 , this investment had a carrying amount of $23,166,000. A decline in the value of this investment due to, among other reasons, Macerich’s operating performance or economic or market conditions, would result in recognized GAAP losses, which could be material.

OUR ORGANIZATIONAL AND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE GIVES RISE TO OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL RISKS.

Substantially all of our assets are owned by subsidiaries. We depend on dividends and distributions from these subsidiaries. The creditors of these subsidiaries are entitled to amounts payable to them by the subsidiaries before the subsidiaries may pay any dividends or distributions to us.

Substantially all of our properties and assets are held through our subsidiaries. We depend on cash distributions and dividends from our subsidiaries for substantially all of our cash flow. The creditors of each of our direct and indirect subsidiaries are entitled to payment of that subsidiary’s obligations to them when due and payable before that subsidiary may make distributions or dividends to us. Thus, our ability to pay dividends, if any, to our security holders depends on our subsidiaries’ ability to first satisfy their obligations to their creditors and our ability to satisfy our obligations, if any, to our creditors.

In addition, our participation in any distribution of the assets of any of our direct or indirect subsidiaries upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency of the subsidiary, is only after the claims of the creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred security holders, if any, of the applicable direct or indirect subsidiaries are satisfied.

Our existing financing documents contain covenants and restrictions that may restrict our operational and financial flexibility.

As of December 31, 2018 , we had outstanding mortgage indebtedness of $1,170,544,000, secured by three of our properties. These mortgages contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties, provide for lender approval of tenants’ leases in certain circumstances, and provide for yield maintenance or defeasance premiums to prepay them. These mortgages may significantly restrict our operational and financial flexibility. In addition, if we were to fail to perform our obligations under existing indebtedness or become insolvent or were liquidated, secured creditors would be entitled to payment in full from the proceeds of the sale of the pledged assets prior to any proceeds being paid to other creditors or to any holders of our securities. In such an event, it is possible that we would have insufficient assets remaining to make payments to other creditors or to any holders of our securities.

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness that could affect our future operations.

As of December 31, 2018 , total debt outstanding was $1,170,544,000. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow from operations will be insufficient to meet required debt service. Our debt service costs generally will not be reduced if developments in the market or at our properties, such as the entry of new competitors or the loss of major tenants, cause a reduction in the income from our properties. Should such events occur, our operations may be adversely affected. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and income from such property is insufficient to pay that indebtedness, the property could be foreclosed upon by the mortgagee resulting in a loss of income and a decline in our total asset value.

We have outstanding debt, and the amount of debt and its cost may increase and refinancing may not be available on acceptable terms.

As of December 31, 2018 , total debt outstanding was $1,170,544,000 and our ratio of total debt to total enterprise value was 47.9%. “Enterprise value” means the market equity value of our common stock, plus debt, less cash and cash equivalents at such date. In addition, we have significant debt service obligations. For the year ended December 31, 2018 , our scheduled cash payments for principal and interest were $41,881,000. In the future, we may incur additional debt, and thus increase the ratio of total debt to total enterprise value. If our level of indebtedness increases, there may be an increased risk of default which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, in a rising interest rate environment, the cost of refinancing our existing debt and any new debt or market rate security or instrument may increase. Continued uncertainty in the equity and credit markets may negatively impact our ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms or at all, which may negatively affect our ability to refinance our debt.

We might fail to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT, and may be required to pay income taxes at corporate rates.

Although we believe that we will remain organized and will continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we might fail to remain qualified. Qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes is governed by highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations and depends on various facts and circumstances that are not entirely within our control. In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions may significantly change the relevant tax laws and/or the federal income tax consequences of qualifying as a REIT. If, with respect to any taxable year, we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT and do not qualify under statutory relief provisions, we could not deduct distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and would have to pay federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. The federal income tax payable would include any applicable alternative minimum tax. If we had to pay federal income tax, the amount of money available to distribute to stockholders and pay our indebtedness would be reduced for the year or years involved, and we would no longer be required to make distributions to stockholders in that taxable year and in future years until we were able to qualify as a REIT and did so. In addition, we would also be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost, unless we were entitled to relief under the relevant statutory provisions.

We face possible adverse changes in tax laws, which may result in an increase in our tax liability.

From time to time changes in tax laws or regulations are enacted, which may result in an increase in our tax liability. The shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in recent years may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income. These increased tax costs could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the amount of cash available for payment of dividends.

Loss of our key personnel could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our common stock.

We are dependent on the efforts of Steven Roth, our Chief Executive Officer. Although we believe that we could find a replacement, the loss of his services could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our common stock.

ALEXANDER’S CHARTER DOCUMENTS AND APPLICABLE LAW MAY HINDER ANY ATTEMPT TO ACQUIRE US.

Provisions in Alexander’s certificate of incorporation and by laws, as well as provisions of the Code and Delaware corporate law, may delay or prevent a change in control of the Company or a tender offer, even if such action might be beneficial to stockholders, and limit the stockholders’ opportunity to receive a potential premium for their shares of common stock over then prevailing market prices.

Primarily to facilitate maintenance of its qualification as a REIT, Alexander’s certificate of incorporation generally prohibits ownership, directly, indirectly or beneficially, by any single stockholder of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of preferred stock of any class or 4.9% of outstanding common stock of any class. The Board of Directors may waive or modify these ownership limits with respect to one or more persons if it is satisfied that ownership in excess of these limits will not jeopardize Alexander’s status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. In addition, the Board of Directors has, subject to certain conditions and limitations, exempted Vornado and certain of its affiliates from these ownership limitations. Stock owned in violation of these ownership limits will be subject to the loss of rights and other restrictions. These ownership limits may have the effect of inhibiting or impeding a change in control.

Alexander’s Board of Directors is divided into three classes of directors. Directors of each class are chosen for three-year staggered terms. Staggered terms of directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or management, even though changes in management or a change in control might be in the best interest of our stockholders.

In addition, Alexander’s charter documents authorize the Board of Directors to:


•	cause Alexander’s to issue additional authorized but unissued common stock or preferred stock;


•	classify or reclassify, in one or more series, any unissued preferred stock; and


•	set the preferences, rights and other terms of any classified or reclassified stock that Alexander’s issues.

The Board of Directors could establish a series of preferred stock with terms that could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Alexander’s or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders, although the Board of Directors does not, at present, intend to establish a series of preferred stock of this kind. Alexander’s charter documents contain other provisions that may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of the Company or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.

In addition, Vornado, Interstate and its three general partners (each of whom are both trustees of Vornado and Directors of Alexander’s) together beneficially own approximately 58.6% of our outstanding shares of common stock. This degree of ownership is likely to reduce the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt to change control of the Company by a third party.

We may change our policies without obtaining the approval of our stockholders.

Our operating and financial policies, including our policies with respect to acquisitions of real estate or other assets, growth, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and dividends, are exclusively determined by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our stockholders do not control these policies.

OUR OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE AND RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS MAY GIVE RISE TO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

Steven Roth, Vornado and Interstate may exercise substantial influence over us. They and some of our other directors and officers have interests or positions in other entities that may compete with us.

As of December 31, 2018 , Interstate and its partners owned approximately 7.1% of the common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado and approximately 26.2% of our outstanding common stock. Steven Roth, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. are the partners of Interstate. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of our Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado and the Managing General Partner of Interstate. Mr. Wight and Mr. Mandelbaum are both trustees of Vornado and members of our Board of Directors. In addition, Vornado manages and leases the real estate assets of Interstate.

As of December 31, 2018 , Vornado owned 32.4% of our outstanding common stock, in addition to the 26.2% owned by Interstate and its partners. In addition to the relationships described in the immediately preceding paragraph, Dr. Richard West is a trustee of Vornado and a member of our Board of Directors and Joseph Macnow, our Treasurer, is the Executive Vice President - Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer of Vornado. Matthew Iocco is our Chief Financial Officer and the Executive Vice President - Chief Accounting Officer of Vornado.

Because of their overlapping interests, Vornado, Mr. Roth, Interstate and the other individuals noted in the preceding paragraphs may have substantial influence over Alexander’s, and on the outcome of any matters submitted to Alexander’s stockholders for approval. In addition, certain decisions concerning our operations or financial structure may present conflicts of interest among Vornado, Messrs. Roth, Mandelbaum and Wight and Interstate and other security holders. Vornado, Mr. Roth and Interstate may, in the future, engage in a wide variety of activities in the real estate business which may result in conflicts of interest with respect to matters affecting us, such as, which of these entities or persons, if any, may take advantage of potential business opportunities, the business focus of these entities, the types of properties and geographic locations in which these entities make investments, potential competition between business activities conducted, or sought to be conducted, by us, competition for properties and tenants, possible corporate transactions such as acquisitions, and other strategic decisions affecting the future of these entities.

There may be conflicts of interest between Vornado, its affiliates and us.

Vornado manages, develops and leases our properties under agreements that have one-year terms expiring in March of each year, which are automatically renewable. Because we share common senior management with Vornado and because four of the trustees of Vornado are on our Board of Directors, the terms of the foregoing agreements and any future agreements may not be comparable to those we could have negotiated with an unaffiliated third party.

For a description of Interstate’s ownership of Vornado and Alexander’s, see “Steven Roth, Vornado and Interstate may exercise substantial influence over us. They and some of our other directors and officers have interests or positions in other entities that may compete with us.” above.

THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF ALEXANDER’S COMMON STOCK AND THE MARKET FOR THOSE SHARES GIVE RISE TO VARIOUS RISKS.

The trading price of our common shares has been volatile and may continue to fluctuate.

The trading price of our common shares has been volatile and may continue to fluctuate widely as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, the stock market is subject to fluctuations in the share prices and trading volumes that affect the market prices of the shares of many companies. These broad market fluctuations have in the past and may in the future adversely affect the market price of our common shares. Among the factors that could affect the price of our common shares are:


•	our financial condition and performance;


•	the financial condition of our tenants, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;


•	actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our operating results and financial condition;


•	our dividend policy;


•	the reputation of REITs and real estate investments generally and the attractiveness of REIT equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate companies, and fixed income securities;


•	uncertainty and volatility in the equity and credit markets;


•	fluctuations in interest rates;


•	changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial analysts or actions taken by rating agencies with respect to our securities or those of other REITs;


•	failure to meet analysts’ revenue or earnings estimates;


•	speculation in the press or investment community;


•	strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;


•	the extent of institutional investor interest in us;


•	the extent of short-selling of our common shares and the shares of our competitors;


•	fluctuations in the stock price and operating results of our competitors;


•	general financial and economic market conditions and, in particular, developments related to market conditions for REITs and other real estate related companies;


•	domestic and international economic factors unrelated to our performance;


•	changes in tax laws and rules; and


•	all other risk factors addressed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

A significant decline in our stock price could result in substantial losses for stockholders.

Alexander’s has additional shares of its common stock available for future issuance, which could decrease the market price of the common stock currently outstanding.

The interest of our current stockholders could be diluted if we issue additional equity securities. As of December 31, 2018 , we had authorized but unissued 4,826,550 shares of common stock, par value of $1.00 per share and 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share; of which 10,057 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance upon redemption of the deferred stock units previously granted to our Board of Directors. In addition, 495,730 shares are available for future grant under the terms of our 2016 Omnibus Stock Plan. These awards may be granted in the form of options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock units, or other equity-based interests, and if granted, would reduce that number of shares available for future grants, provided however that an award that may be settled only in cash, would not reduce the number of shares available under the plan. We cannot predict the impact that future issuances of common or preferred stock or any exercise of outstanding options or grants of additional equity-based interests would have on the market price of our common stock.

Operating Properties

731 Lexington Avenue

731 Lexington Avenue, a 1,311,000 square foot multi-use building, comprises the entire block bounded by Lexington Avenue, East 59 ^th Street, Third Avenue and East 58 ^th Street in Manhattan, New York, and is situated in the heart of one of Manhattan’s busiest business and shopping districts, with convenient access to several subway and bus lines. The property is located across the street from Bloomingdale’s flagship store and only a few blocks away from Fifth Avenue and 57 ^th Street. The building contains 889,000 and 174,000 of net rentable square feet of office and retail space, respectively, which we own, and 248,000 square feet of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units, which we sold. Bloomberg occupies all of the office space. The Home Depot (83,000 square feet), The Container Store (34,000 square feet) and Hennes & Mauritz (27,000 square feet) are the principal retail tenants.

The office portion of 731 Lexington Avenue is encumbered by a mortgage loan with a balance of $500,000,000 as of December 31, 2018 . The interest-only loan is at LIBOR plus 0.90% (3.36% as of December 31, 2018 ) and matures in June 2020, with four one-year extension options. In connection therewith, we purchased an interest rate cap with a notional amount of $500,000,000 that caps LIBOR at a rate of 6.0%.

The retail portion of 731 Lexington Avenue is encumbered by a mortgage loan with a balance of $350,000,000 as of December 31, 2018 . The interest-only loan is at LIBOR plus 1.40% ( 3.78% as of December 31, 2018 ) and matures in August 2020, with two one-year extension options.

Rego Park I

Rego Park II

Rego Park II, a 609,000 square foot shopping center, adjacent to the Rego Park I shopping center in Queens. The center is anchored by a 145,000 square foot Costco, a 135,000 square foot Century 21 and a 133,000 square foot Kohl’s. On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its store at the property; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031. On September 18, 2017, Toys, a one-third owned affiliate of Vornado as of December 31, 2018, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief. On June 30, 2018, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at the property ($2,600,000 of annual revenue) and possession of the space was returned to us. The center contains a parking deck (1,326 spaces) that provides for paid parking.

This center is encumbered by a mortgage loan with a balance of $252,544,000 as of December 31, 2018 . The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.35% (3.87% as of December 31, 2018 ) and matures in December 2025. We hold a $195,708,000 participation in the loan at LIBOR plus 1.35%.

Operating Properties - continued

Paramus

We own 30.3 acres of land located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey. The land is located directly across from the Garden State Plaza regional shopping mall and is within two miles of three other regional shopping malls and ten miles of New York City. The land has been ground leased to IKEA Property, Inc. since 2001. The lease expires in 2041, with a purchase option in 2021 for $75,000,000. The property is encumbered by a $68,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan with a fixed rate of 4.72%, which matures in October 2021. The annual triple-net rent is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of interest on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised, we will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on sale of land of approximately $60,000,000. If the purchase option is not exercised, the triple-net rent for the last 20 years would include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20-year lease term.

Flushing

Flushing is located on Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in the downtown, commercial section of Flushing, Queens, New York. Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street are active shopping districts and there are many national retailers located in the area. A subway entrance is located directly in front of the property with bus service across the street. The property comprises a four-floor building containing 167,000 square feet and a parking garage, which is sub-leased to New World Mall LLC for the remainder of our ground lease term, which expires in 2027 and has one 10-year extension option.

Property to be Developed

Rego Park III

We own a 140,000 square foot land parcel adjacent to the Rego Park II shopping center in Queens, New York, at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and the Horace Harding Service Road. The land is currently being used for paid public parking. In 2016, the Company began the entitlement process.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with our legal counsel, the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2014, Sears Roebuck and Co. (“Sears”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York against Vornado and us (and certain of our subsidiaries) with regard to space that Sears leased at our Rego Park I property alleging that the defendants are liable for harm that Sears has suffered as a result of (a) water intrusions into the premises, (b) two fires in February 2014 that caused damages to those premises, and (c) alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the premises’ parking garage. Sears asserted various causes of actions for damages and sought to compel compliance with landlord’s obligations to repair the premises and to provide security, and to compel us to abate a nuisance that Sears claims was a cause of the water intrusions into its premises. In addition to injunctive relief, Sears sought, among other things, damages of not less than $4 million and future damages it estimated would not be less than $25 million. In March 2016, Sears withdrew its claim for future damages leaving a remaining claim for property damages, which we estimate to be approximately $650,000 based on information provided by Sears. We intend to defend the remaining claim vigorously. The amount or range of reasonable possible losses, if any, is not expected to be greater than $650,000. On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief resulting in an automatic stay of this case.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” and “Alexander’s” refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO). We have seven properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area.

We compete with a large number of property owners and developers. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.

Overview - continued

Real Property Transfer Tax Litigation

In 2012, we sold Kings Plaza and paid real property transfer taxes to New York City in connection with the sale. In 2015, the New York City Department of Finance (“NYC DOF”) issued a Notice of Determination to us assessing an additional New York City real property transfer tax amount, including interest, which we are contesting.

In 2014, in a case with similar facts, the NYC DOF issued a Notice of Determination to a Vornado joint venture assessing an additional New York City real property transfer tax amount, including interest. In January 2017, a New York City administrative law judge made a determination upholding the Vornado joint venture’s position that such additional real property transfer taxes were not due. On February 16, 2018, the New York City Tax Appeals Tribunal (the “Tribunal”) overturned the January 2017 determination. The Vornado joint venture is appealing the Tribunal’s decision to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York which is scheduled to be heard in the first half of 2019.

In 2018, based on the precedent of the Tribunal’s decision, we recorded an expense for the potential additional real property transfer taxes of $23,797,000 ($15,874,000 of real property transfer tax and $7,923,000 of interest) and paid this amount in order to stop the interest from accruing. Our case is on hold pending the outcome of the Vornado joint venture’s appeal.

Tenant Matters

On April 4, 2017, Sears closed its 195,000 square foot store at our Rego Park I shopping center ($10,300,000 of annual revenue). On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. Consequently, we wrote off the remaining balance of the Sears receivable arising from the straight-lining of rent of $2,973,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018. In addition, we accelerated depreciation and amortization of the remaining balance of $312,000 of deferred leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2018 .

On September 18, 2017, Toys filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief. On June 30, 2018, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at our Rego Park II shopping center ($2,600,000 of annual revenue) and possession of the space was returned to us. Consequently, we accelerated depreciation and amortization of the remaining balances of $588,000 of tenant improvements and $215,000 of deferred leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2018. We also wrote off the Toys receivable arising from the straight-lining of rent of $500,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018 .

On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its 133,000 square foot store at our Rego Park II shopping center; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031.

Financing

On October 3, 2018, we extended our mortgage loan on our Paramus property. The $68,000,000 interest-only loan has a fixed rate of 4.72% and matures in October 2021. Previously the loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 2.90%. The tenant pays all of the interest on this mortgage loan as part of its rent.

On December 12, 2018, we completed a $252,544,000 refinancing of our Rego Park II shopping center. The interest-only loan is at LIBOR plus 1.35% (3.87% as of December 31, 2018) and matures in December 2025. The previous loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.85% and was scheduled to mature in January 2019. As of December 31, 2018, we hold a $195,708,000 participation in the mortgage loan, earning interest at LIBOR plus 1.35%. The participation in the previous mortgage loan earned interest at LIBOR plus 1.60%.

Significant Tenant

Bloomberg accounted for revenue of $107,356,000, $105,224,000 and $104,590,000 in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, representing approximately 46% of our total revenues in each year. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Set forth below is a summary of our accounting policies that we believe are critical to the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. This summary should be read in conjunction with a more complete discussion of our accounting policies included in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Real Estate

Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the carrying amount of our real estate, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, was $730,270,000 and $754,324,000, respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation requires an estimate by management of the useful life of each property and improvement as well as an allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components. If we do not allocate these costs appropriately or incorrectly estimate the useful lives of our real estate, depreciation expense may be misstated. We capitalize all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to, the development and construction of a project, including interest expense. The capitalization period begins when development activities are underway and ends when it is determined that the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, which is typically evidenced by the receipt of a temporary certificate of occupancy. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

Our properties and related intangible assets, including properties to be developed in the future, are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Estimates of future cash flows are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. For our development properties, estimates of future cash flows also include all future expenditures necessary to develop the asset, including interest payments that will be capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable and is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. If our estimates of future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, or fair values change, based on market conditions or otherwise, our evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. Estimates of future cash flows are subjective and are based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We periodically evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants, including the receivable arising from the straight-lining of rents, and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts ($671,000 and $1,501,000 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively) for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. We exercise judgment in establishing these allowances and consider payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates. These estimates may differ from actual results, which could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - continued

Revenue Recognition

Our revenues consist of property rentals and expense reimbursements. We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:

•

Base Rent is revenue arising from tenant leases. These rents are recognized over the non-cancelable term of the related leases on a straight-line basis, which includes the effects of rent steps and rent abatements. We commence rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use. In addition, in circumstances where we provide a tenant improvement allowance for improvements that are owned by the tenant, we recognize the allowance as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.


•	Percentage Rent is revenue arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon the sales of tenants exceeding defined thresholds. These rents are recognized only after the contingency has been removed (i.e., when tenant sales thresholds have been achieved).


•	Parking Revenue arising from the rental of parking space at our properties. This income is recognized as the services are provided.


•	Operating Expense Reimbursements is revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of our properties. Revenue is recognized in the same period as the related expenses are incurred.


•	Tenant Services is revenue arising from sub-metered electric, elevator and other services provided to tenants at their request. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred.

Before we recognize revenue, we assess, among other things, its collectibility. If our assessment of the collectibility of revenue changes, the impact on our consolidated financial statements could be material.

Income Taxes

We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 – 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code, we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to stockholders each year. We distribute to our stockholders 100% of our taxable income and therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes is required. If we fail to distribute the required amount of income to our stockholders, or fail to meet other REIT requirements, we may fail to qualify as a REIT, which may result in substantial adverse tax consequences.

Results of Operations – Year Ended December 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017

Property Rentals

Property rentals were $152,795,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $152,857,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $62,000. This decrease was primarily due to lower revenue from Sears at our Rego Park I property and Toys at our Rego Park II property, partially offset by higher revenue from a new restaurant tenant at our 731 Lexington Avenue property.

Expense Reimbursements

Tenant expense reimbursements were $80,030,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $77,717,000 in the prior year, an increase of $2,313,000. This increase was primarily due to higher real estate taxes and higher operating expenses.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $93,775,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $85,127,000 in the prior year, an increase of $8,648,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) higher bad debt expense of $4,406,000, (ii) higher real estate taxes of $2,180,000 and (iii) higher operating expenses of $1,664,000.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $33,089,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $34,925,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $1,836,000. This decrease was primarily due to additional depreciation and amortization of tenant improvements and deferred leasing costs of $2,444,000 related to a tenant lease termination at our 731 Lexington Avenue property in 2017.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $5,339,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $5,252,000 in the prior year, an increase of $87,000.

Interest and Other Income, net

Interest and other income, net was $12,546,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $6,716,000 in the prior year, an increase of $5,830,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) $4,673,000 of higher interest income from the Rego Park II loan participation entered into in July 2017 and (ii) $3,693,000 of higher interest income due to an increase in average interest rates, partially offset by (iii) $1,600,000 of expense from a litigation settlement and (iv) $760,000 of lower interest income due to lower average investment balances.

Interest and Debt Expense

Interest and debt expense was $44,533,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $31,474,000 in the prior year, an increase of $13,059,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) $8,482,000 resulting from an increase in average LIBOR, (ii) $2,620,000 resulting from the refinancing of the office portion of 731 Lexington Avenue on June 1, 2017 for $500,000,000 at LIBOR plus 0.90% (previously a $300,000,000 loan at LIBOR plus 0.95%) and (iii) $1,641,000 of higher amortization of debt issuance costs.

Change in Fair Value of Marketable Securities

Change in fair value of marketable securities was an expense of $11,990,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018, resulting from Macerich’s closing share prices of $43.28 and $65.68 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, on 535,265 shares owned. See Note 5 – Marketable Securities , to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $4,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018 , compared to $3,000 in the prior year.

Loss from Discontinued Operations

Loss from discontinued operations was $23,797,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018. The loss was due to a payment of potential additional real property transfer taxes from the 2012 sale of Kings Plaza which is being contested. See Note 6 – Discontinued Operations , to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operations – Year Ended December 31, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016

Property Rentals

Property rentals were $152,857,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $151,444,000 in the prior year, an increase of $1,413,000. This increase was primarily due to higher rental income of $3,730,000 from The Alexander apartment tower, which was placed in service in phases beginning July 2015 and leased up to stabilization in September 2016, partially offset by income of $2,257,000 in 2016 resulting from a tenant lease termination at our Rego Park II property.

Expense Reimbursements

Tenant expense reimbursements were $77,717,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $75,492,000 in the prior year, an increase of $2,225,000. This increase was primarily due to higher real estate taxes and higher operating expenses.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $85,127,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $82,232,000 in the prior year, an increase of $2,895,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) higher real estate taxes of $3,267,000 and (ii) higher operating expenses of $903,000, partially offset by (iii) lower marketing costs for The Alexander apartment tower of $1,098,000 and (iv) lower bad debt expense of $504,000.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $34,925,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $33,807,000 in the prior year, an increase of $1,118,000. This increase was primarily due to additional depreciation and amortization of tenant improvements and deferred leasing costs of $2,444,000 related to a tenant lease termination at our 731 Lexington Avenue property in 2017, partially offset by additional depreciation and amortization of tenant improvements and deferred leasing costs of $1,077,000 in 2016 related to a tenant lease termination at our Rego Park II property.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $5,252,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $5,436,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $184,000. This decrease was primarily due to lower director’s fees and stock-based compensation expense as a result of having one less member on our Board of Directors in 2017.

Interest and Other Income, net

Interest and other income, net was $6,716,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $3,305,000 in the prior year, an increase of $3,411,000. This increase was primarily due to higher interest income of (i) $2,453,000 from the Rego Park II loan participation, (ii) $1,418,000 from an increase in the average interest rates and (iii) $216,000 from an increase in the average investment balances, partially offset by (iv) lower income of $429,000 in connection with bankruptcy recoveries and (v) income of $367,000 in 2016 from a cost reimbursement settlement with a retail tenant at our 731 Lexington Avenue property.

Interest and Debt Expense

Interest and debt expense was $31,474,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $22,241,000 in the prior year, an increase of $9,233,000. This increase was primarily due to (i) $5,289,000 resulting from an increase in average LIBOR, (ii) $2,658,000 resulting from the refinancing of the office portion of 731 Lexington Avenue on June 1, 2017 for $500,000,000 at LIBOR plus 0.90% (previously a $300,000,000 loan at LIBOR plus 0.95%) and (iii) $1,188,000 of higher amortization of debt issuance costs.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $3,000 in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $48,000 in the prior year.

Related Party Transactions

Vornado

As of December 31, 2018 , Vornado owned 32.4% of our outstanding common stock. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to various agreements, which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable. These agreements are described in Note 4 – Related Party Transactions , to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Steven Roth is the Chairman of our Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, the Managing General Partner of Interstate Properties (“Interstate”), a New Jersey general partnership, and the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado. As of December 31, 2018 , Mr. Roth, Interstate and its other two general partners, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. (who are also directors of the Company and trustees of Vornado) owned, in the aggregate, 26.2% of our outstanding common stock, in addition to the 2.3% they indirectly own through Vornado. Joseph Macnow, our Treasurer, is the Executive Vice President - Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer of Vornado. Matthew Iocco, our Chief Financial Officer, is the Executive Vice President - Chief Accounting Officer of Vornado.

Toys

Our affiliate, Vornado, owned 32.5% of Toys as of December 31, 2018. On February 1, 2019, in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the plan of reorganization for Toys was declared effective and Vornado’s ownership in Toys was canceled and Toys’ Board of Directors was dissolved. Joseph Macnow, Vornado’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and Wendy A. Silverstein, a member of our Board of Directors, represented Vornado as members of Toys’ Board of Directors. Also in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at our Rego Park II shopping center ($2,600,000 of annual revenue) effective June 30, 2018 and possession of the space was returned to us. Consequently, we accelerated depreciation and amortization of the remaining balances of $588,000 of tenant improvements and $215,000 of deferred leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2018 . We also wrote off the Toys receivable arising from the straight-lining of rent of $500,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors including the occupancy level and rental rates of our properties, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay their rents. Our properties provide us with a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that enables us to pay our operating expenses, interest expense, recurring capital expenditures and cash dividends to stockholders. Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include our existing cash, proceeds from financings, including mortgage or construction loans secured by our properties and proceeds from asset sales. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations over the next twelve months, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash dividends to stockholders, debt amortization and capital expenditures.

Dividends

On January 16, 2019, we set our regular quarterly dividend to $4.50 per share (an indicated annual rate of $18.00 per share). The dividend, when declared by the Board of Directors for all of 2019, will require us to pay out approximately $92,100,000.

Financing Activities and Contractual Obligations

On June 1, 2017, we completed a $500,000,000 refinancing of the office portion of 731 Lexington Avenue. The interest-only loan is at LIBOR plus 0.90% (3.36% as of December 31, 2018) and matures in June 2020, with four one-year extension options. In connection therewith, we purchased an interest rate cap with a notional amount of $500,000,000 that caps LIBOR at a rate of 6.0%. The property was previously encumbered by a $300,000,000 interest-only mortgage at LIBOR plus 0.95% which was scheduled to mature in March 2021.

Rego Park I Litigation

In June 2014, Sears filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York against Vornado and us (and certain of our subsidiaries) with regard to space that Sears leased at our Rego Park I property alleging that the defendants are liable for harm that Sears has suffered as a result of (a) water intrusions into the premises, (b) two fires in February 2014 that caused damages to those premises, and (c) alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the premises’ parking garage. Sears asserted various causes of actions for damages and sought to compel compliance with landlord’s obligations to repair the premises and to provide security, and to compel us to abate a nuisance that Sears claims was a cause of the water intrusions into its premises. In addition to injunctive relief, Sears sought, among other things, damages of not less than $4 million and future damages it estimated would not be less than $25 million. In March 2016, Sears withdrew its claim for future damages leaving a remaining claim for property damages, which we estimate to be approximately $650,000 based on information provided by Sears. We intend to defend the remaining claim vigorously. The amount or range of reasonable possible losses, if any, is not expected to be greater than $650,000. On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief resulting in an automatic stay of this case.

Paramus

In 2001, we leased 30.3 acres of land located in Paramus, New Jersey to IKEA Property, Inc. The lease has a purchase option in 2021 for $75,000,000. The property is encumbered by a $68,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan with a fixed rate of 4.72%, which matures in October 2021. The annual triple-net rent is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of interest on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised, we will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on sale of land of approximately $60,000,000. If the purchase option is not exercised, the triple-net rent for the last 20 years would include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20-year lease term.

Letters of Credit

Approximately $1,030,000 of standby letters of credit were outstanding as of December 31, 2018 .

Other

We received $165,000, $396,000 and $825,000 from bankruptcy recoveries during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which is included as “interest and other income, net” in our consolidated statements of income.

There are various other legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters in the aggregate will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) (non-GAAP)

FFO is computed in accordance with the December 2018 restated definition adopted by the Board of Governors of NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains from sales of depreciable real estate assets, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets and other specified items, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries. FFO and FFO per diluted share are used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a performance measure or cash flow as a liquidity measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of our net income to FFO is provided below.

In accordance with the NAREIT December 2018 restated definition of FFO, we have elected to exclude the mark-to-market adjustments of marketable securities from the calculation of FFO. Our FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 has been adjusted to exclude the $5,561,000, or $1.08 per diluted share, from the decrease in fair value of marketable securities previously reported. Net income for the year and quarter ended December 31, 2018 included $11,990,000, or $2.34 per diluted share, and $6,429,000, or $1.26 per diluted share, respectively, from the decrease in fair value of marketable securities.

FFO (non-GAAP) for the years and quarters ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

FFO (non-GAAP) for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $77,429,000, or $15.13 per diluted share, compared to $114,908,000, or $22.46 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2017 . FFO (non-GAAP) for the year ended December 31, 2018 included $23,797,000, or $4.65 per diluted share, of expense for the potential additional New York City real property transfer taxes on the 2012 sale of Kings Plaza which is being contested.

FFO (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 was $24,158,000, or $4.72 per diluted share, compared to $28,062,000, or $5.49 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 .

The following table reconciles our net income to FFO (non-GAAP):

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $1,165,000,000 and $1,239,000,000, respectively. Our fair value estimates, which are made at the end of the reporting period, may be different from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon the disposition of our financial instruments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of

Alexander’s, Inc.

Paramus, New Jersey

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alexander’s, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes and the schedules listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 11, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. ORGANIZATION

We have seven properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area consisting of:

Operating properties

•

731 Lexington Avenue, a 1,311,000 square foot multi-use building, comprising the entire block bounded by Lexington Avenue, East 59 ^th Street, Third Avenue and East 58 ^th Street in Manhattan. The building contains 889,000 and 174,000 of net rentable square feet of office and retail space, respectively, which we own, and 248,000 square feet of residential space consisting of 105 condominium units, which we sold. Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) occupies all of the office space. The Home Depot ( 83,000 square feet), The Container Store ( 34,000 square feet) and Hennes & Mauritz ( 27,000 square feet) are the principal retail tenants;

•

Rego Park I, a 343,000 square foot shopping center, located on Queens Boulevard and 63 ^rd Road in Queens. On April 4, 2017, Sears closed its 195,000 square foot anchor store at the property ( $10,300,000 of annual revenue). On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. The center is also anchored by a 50,000 square foot Burlington, a 46,000 square foot Bed Bath & Beyond and a 36,000 square foot Marshalls;

•

Rego Park II, a 609,000 square foot shopping center, adjacent to the Rego Park I shopping center in Queens. The center is anchored by a 145,000 square foot Costco, a 135,000 square foot Century 21 and a 133,000 square foot Kohl’s. On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its store at the property; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031. On September 18, 2017, Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“Toys”), a one-third owned affiliate of Vornado as of December 31, 2018, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief. On June 30, 2018, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at the property ( $2,600,000 of annual revenue) and possession of the space was returned to us;


•	The Alexander apartment tower, located above our Rego Park II shopping center, contains 312 units aggregating 255,000 square feet;


•	Paramus, located at the intersection of Routes 4 and 17 in Paramus, New Jersey, consists of 30.3 acres of land that is leased to IKEA Property, Inc.; and


•	Flushing, a 167,000 square foot building, located on Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street in Queens, that is sub-leased to New World Mall LLC for the remainder of our ground lease term.

Property to be developed


•	Rego Park III, a 140,000 square foot land parcel adjacent to the Rego Park II shopping center in Queens, at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and the Horace Harding Service Road.

We have determined that our properties have similar economic characteristics and meet the criteria that permit the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment (the leasing, management, development and redeveloping of properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area). Our chief operating decision-maker assesses and measures segment operating results based on a performance measure referred to as net operating income at the individual operating segment. Net operating income for each property represents net rental revenues less operating expenses.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated. Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Literature – In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update (“ASU 2014-09”) establishing Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). ASU 2014-09, as amended by subsequent ASUs on the topic, establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. This standard, which is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2017, requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also requires certain additional disclosures. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach, which allows us to apply the new standard to all existing contracts not yet completed as of the effective date and record a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2016-01”) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities to ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”). ASU 2016-01 amends certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. While the adoption of this update requires us to continue to measure “marketable securities” at fair value at each reporting date, the changes in fair value will be recognized in current period earnings as opposed to “other comprehensive (loss) income.” As a result, on January 1, 2018 we recorded an increase to retained earnings of $5,156,000 to recognize the unrealized gains previously recorded within “accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.” For the year ended December 31, 2018 we recorded a decrease in the fair value of our marketable securities of $11,990,000 , resulting from The Macerich Company’s (“Macerich”) closing share price of $43.28 as of December 31, 2018, compared to $65.68 as of December 31, 2017.

In February 2016, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2016-02”) establishing ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), as amended by subsequent ASUs on the topic, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to apply a two-method approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase. Lessees are required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. Lessees will recognize expense based on the effective interest method for finance leases or on a straight-line basis for operating leases. The accounting applied by the lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the existing lease standard. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019. We completed our evaluation of the overall impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements and accounting policies. In transitioning to ASC 842, we elected to use the practical expedient package available to us and did not elect to use hindsight. For our Flushing property ground lease, which is classified as an operating lease, we will be required to record a right-of-use asset and lease liability equal to the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments, and will continue to recognize expense on a straight-line basis upon adoption of this standard. On January 1, 2019, we recorded the Flushing right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of approximately $5,400,000 as a result of the adoption of this standard.

In February 2017, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2017-05”) Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets to ASC Subtopic 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets . ASU 2017-05 clarifies the scope of recently established guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition, as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. This update conforms the derecognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in ASC 606. ASU 2017-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to all contracts not yet completed. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

In August 2017, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2017-12”) Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities to ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASU 2017-12 amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815. The update is intended to more closely align hedge accounting with companies’ risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedge programs. The update ASU 2017-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2018-13”) Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, and/or adding certain disclosures. ASU 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt by modifying existing disclosures and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until the effective date. The adoption of this update is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In October 2018, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2018-16”) Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes to ASC 815. ASU 2018-16 expands the list of U.S. benchmark interest rates permitted in the application of hedge accounting by adding the OIS rate based on SOFR as an eligible benchmark interest rate. ASU 2018-16 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate – Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the carrying amount of our real estate, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, was $730,270,000 and $754,324,000 , respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation requires an estimate by management of the useful life of each property and improvement as well as an allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components. We capitalize all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to, the development and construction of a project, including interest expense. The capitalization period begins when development activities are underway and ends when it is determined that the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, which is typically evidenced by the receipt of a temporary certificate of occupancy. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

ALEXANDER’S, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value, due to their short-term maturities. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consist of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, (iii) money market funds, which invest in United States Treasury Bills and (iv) certificates of deposit placed through an account registry service (“CDARS”). To date we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash.

Restricted Cash – Restricted cash primarily consists of security deposits and other cash escrowed under loan agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance and capital improvements. Prior to repayment in June 2018, restricted cash also consisted of cash held in a non-interest bearing escrow account in connection with our Rego Park I 100% cash collateralized mortgage.

Marketable Securities – Our marketable securities consist of common shares of Macerich (NYSE: MAC), which are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are presented at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets. Prior to January 1, 2018, unrealized gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities were included in “other comprehensive (loss) income.” Effective January 1, 2018, changes in the fair value of these securities are recognized in current period earnings in accordance with ASC 825 (see Note 5).

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – We periodically evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants, including the receivable arising from the straight-lining of rents, and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts ( $671,000 and $1,501,000 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively) for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. We exercise judgment in establishing these allowances and consider payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates.

Deferred Charges – Direct financing costs are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest and debt expense. Direct costs related to leasing activities are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases. All other deferred charges are amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreements to which they relate.

Income Taxes – We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 – 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code, we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to stockholders each year. We distribute to our stockholders 100% of our taxable income and therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes is required. Dividends distributed for the year ended December 31, 2018 were characterized, for federal income tax purposes, as 100.0% ordinary income. Dividends distributed for the year ended December 31, 2017 were characterized, for federal income tax purposes, as 99.5% ordinary income and 0.5% long-term capital gain income. Dividends distributed for the year ended December 31, 2016 were categorized, for federal income tax purposes, as 97.7% ordinary income and 2.3% long-term capital gain income.

The following table reconciles our net income to estimated taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 .

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Our revenues consist of property rentals and expense reimbursements. We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:

•


•	Percentage Rent is revenue arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon the sales of tenants exceeding defined thresholds. These rents are recognized only after the contingency has been removed (i.e., when tenant sales thresholds have been achieved).


•	Parking Revenue arising from the rental of parking spaces at our properties. This income is recognized as the services are provided.


•	Operating Expense Reimbursements is revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of our properties. Revenue is recognized in the same period as the related expenses are incurred.


•	Tenant Services is revenue arising from sub-metered electric, elevator and other services provided to tenants at their request. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred.

Parking revenue and tenant services income represent revenue recognized from contracts with customers and are recognized in accordance with ASC 606. Base rent, percentage rent and operating expense reimbursements are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 840, Leases .

The following is a summary of revenue sources for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - continued

Toys

Our affiliate, Vornado, owned 32.5% of Toys as of December 31, 2018. On February 1, 2019, in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the plan of reorganization for Toys was declared effective and Vornado’s ownership in Toys was canceled and Toys’ Board of Directors was dissolved. Joseph Macnow, Vornado’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and Wendy A. Silverstein, a member of our Board of Directors, represented Vornado as members of Toys’ Board of Directors. Also in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at our Rego Park II shopping center ( $2,600,000 of annual revenue) effective June 30, 2018 and possession of the space was returned to us. Consequently, we accelerated depreciation and amortization of the remaining balances of $588,000 of tenant improvements and $215,000 of deferred leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2018. We also wrote off the Toys receivable arising from the straight-lining of rent of $500,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018.

5. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , we owned 535,265 common shares of Macerich. These shares have an economic cost of $56.05 per share, or $30,000,000 in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the fair value of these shares was $23,166,000 and $35,156,000 , respectively, based on Macerich’s closing share price of $43.28 per share and $65.68 per share, respectively. These shares are included in “marketable securities” on our consolidated balance sheets and are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are presented at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets. Prior to January 1, 2018, unrealized gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities were included in “other comprehensive (loss) income.” Effective January 1, 2018, changes in the fair value of these securities are recognized in current period earnings in accordance with ASC 825. For the year ended December 31, 2018 we recorded a decrease in the fair value of our marketable securities of $11,990,000 , resulting from Macerich’s closing share price of $43.28 as of December 31, 2018, compared to $65.68 as of December 31, 2017.

6. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In 2012, we sold the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center (“Kings Plaza”) and paid real property transfer taxes to New York City in connection with the sale. In 2015, the New York City Department of Finance (“NYC DOF”) issued a Notice of Determination to us assessing an additional New York City real property transfer tax amount, including interest, which we are contesting.

In 2018, based on the precedent of the Tribunal’s decision, we recorded an expense for the potential additional real property transfer taxes of $23,797,000 ( $15,874,000 of real property transfer tax and $7,923,000 of interest) and paid this amount in order to stop the interest from accruing. Our case is on hold pending the outcome of the Vornado joint venture’s appeal.

As the results related to Kings Plaza were previously classified as discontinued operations, we have classified the expense as “loss from discontinued operations” on our consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2018 in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment .

8. REGO PARK II LOAN PARTICIPATION

We hold a participation in the Rego Park II shopping center loan and are entitled to interest at LIBOR plus 1.35% ( 3.87% as of December 31, 2018). The participation in the previous loan, which was refinanced on December 12, 2018, earned interest at LIBOR plus 1.60% . As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, our loan participation balance was $195,708,000 and $198,537,000 , respectively, and the investment is presented as “Rego Park II loan participation” on our consolidated balance sheets. Interest earned on the loan participation is recognized as “interest and other income, net” on our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 – observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 consist of marketable securities and an interest rate cap, which are presented in the table below based on their level in the fair value hierarchy. There were no financial liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 .

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets include cash equivalents, the Rego Park II loan participation and mortgages payable. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities and are classified as Level 1. The fair values of the Rego Park II loan participation and our mortgages payable are calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist, and are classified as Level 2. The table below summarizes the carrying amount and fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 .

10. LEASES

As Lessor

We lease space to tenants in an office building and in retail centers. The rental terms range from approximately 5 to 25 years . The leases provide for the payment of fixed base rents payable monthly in advance as well as reimbursements of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Retail leases may also provide for the payment by the lessee of additional rents based on a percentage of their sales. We also lease residential space at The Alexander apartment tower with 1 or 2 year lease terms.

Future base rental revenue under these non-cancelable operating leases is as follows:



(Amounts in thousands)

Year Ending December 31,	Amount
2019	$	138,784

2023	111,962
Thereafter	671,111

These future minimum amounts do not include additional rents based on a percentage of retail tenants’ sales. These rents were $234,000 , $174,000 and $182,000 , respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 .

Bloomberg accounted for revenue of $107,356,000 , $105,224,000 and $104,590,000 in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, representing approximately 46% of our total revenues in each year. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

As Lessee

We are a tenant under a long-term ground lease at our Flushing property, which expires in 2027 and has one 10 -year extension option. In accordance with ASC 842, on January 1, 2019 we recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability related to this ground lease equal to the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments of approximately $5,400,000 . Future lease payments under this operating lease, excluding the extension option, are as follows:

11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation . Our 2016 Omnibus Stock Plan (the “Plan”) provides for grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock units (“DSUs”) and performance shares, as defined, to the directors, officers and employees of the Company and Vornado.

On May 17, 2018, we granted each of the members of our Board of Directors 195 DSUs with a grant date fair value of $56,250 per grant, or $394,000 in the aggregate. The DSUs entitle the holders to receive shares of the Company’s common stock without the payment of any consideration. The DSUs vested immediately and accordingly, were expensed on the date of grant, but the shares of common stock underlying the DSUs are not deliverable to the grantee until the grantee is no longer serving on the Company’s Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2018, there were 10,057 DSUs outstanding and 495,730 shares were available for future grant under the Plan.

Paramus

In 2001, we leased 30.3 acres of land located in Paramus, New Jersey to IKEA Property, Inc. The lease has a purchase option in 2021 for $75,000,000 . The property is encumbered by a $68,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan with a fixed rate of 4.72% , which matures in October 2021. The annual triple-net rent is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of interest on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised, we will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on sale of land of approximately $60,000,000 . If the purchase option is not exercised, the triple-net rent for the last 20 years would include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20 -year lease term.

Rego Park I Litigation

In June 2014, Sears Roebuck and Co. (“Sears”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York against Vornado and us (and certain of our subsidiaries) with regard to space that Sears leased at our Rego Park I property alleging that the defendants are liable for harm that Sears has suffered as a result of (a) water intrusions into the premises, (b) two fires in February 2014 that caused damages to those premises, and (c) alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the premises’ parking garage. Sears asserted various causes of actions for damages and sought to compel compliance with landlord’s obligations to repair the premises and to provide security, and to compel us to abate a nuisance that Sears claims was a cause of the water intrusions into its premises. In addition to injunctive relief, Sears sought, among other things, damages of not less than $4 million and future damages it estimated would not be less than $25 million . In March 2016, Sears withdrew its claim for future damages leaving a remaining claim for property damages, which we estimate to be approximately $650,000 based on information provided by Sears. We intend to defend the remaining claim vigorously. The amount or range of reasonably possible losses, if any, is not expected to be greater than $650,000 . On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief resulting in an automatic stay of this case.

On April 4, 2017, Sears closed its 195,000 square foot store at the property ( $10,300,000 of annual revenue). On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. Consequently, we wrote off the remaining balance of the Sears receivable arising from the straight-lining of rent of $2,973,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018. In addition, we accelerated depreciation and amortization of the remaining balance of $312,000 of deferred leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 2018.

13. MULTIEMPLOYER BENEFIT PLANS

Our subsidiaries make contributions to certain multiemployer defined benefit plans (“Multiemployer Pension Plans”) and health plans (“Multiemployer Health Plans”) for our union represented employees, pursuant to the respective collective bargaining agreements.

Multiemployer Pension Plans

Multiemployer Pension Plans differ from single-employer pension plans in that (i) contributions to multiemployer plans may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers and (ii) if other participating employers fail to make their contributions, each of our subsidiaries may be required to bear their pro rata share of unfunded obligations. If a participating subsidiary withdraws from a plan in which it participates, it may be subject to a withdrawal liability. As of December 31, 2018 , our subsidiaries’ participation in these plans were not significant to our consolidated financial statements.

In the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 our subsidiaries contributed $161,000 , $162,000 and $147,000 , respectively, towards Multiemployer Pension Plans. Our subsidiaries’ contributions did not represent more than 5% of total employer contributions in any of these plans for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 .

Multiemployer Health Plans

Multiemployer Health Plans in which our subsidiaries participate provide health benefits to eligible active and retired employees. In the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 our subsidiaries contributed $649,000 , $619,000 and $539,000 , respectively, towards these plans.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share, including a reconciliation of net income and the number of shares used in computing basic and diluted income per share. Basic income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock (including DSUs) outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock (including DSUs) outstanding during the period, and assumes all potentially dilutive securities were converted into common shares at the earliest date possible. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 .

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER

FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Alexander’s, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As of December 31, 2018 , management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 is effective.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing on page 60 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 .

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of

Alexander’s, Inc.

Paramus, New Jersey

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Alexander’s, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, of the Company and our report dated February 11, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

ARTICLE II

GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.1 Loan.

2.1.1 The Loan . Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make and Borrower hereby agrees to accept the Loan on the Closing Date.

2.1.2 Single Disbursement to Borrower . Borrower shall receive only one borrowing hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

2.1.3 The Note, Mortgage and Loan Documents . The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgage, the Assignment of Leases, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

2.1.4 Use of Proceeds . Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan to repay and discharge the Original Loan.

2.1.5 Loan Term . The term of the Loan shall commence on the Closing Date and shall end on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.2 Interest .

2.2.1 Applicable Interest Rate . The Principal Amount shall bear interest, as provided below, at the Applicable Interest Rate from time to time in effect based upon the LIBOR Rate or when specifically so provided in this Agreement, based upon the Substitute Rate.

2.2.2 Interest Calculation . Interest on the Principal Amount shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as then applicable, expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (c) the Principal Amount.

2.2.3 Determination of Applicable Interest Rate . (a) Any change in the rate of interest hereunder due to a change in the Applicable Interest Rate shall become effective as of the first day on which such change in the Applicable Interest Rate shall become effective. Each determination by Lender, which shall occur on each Rate Determination Date (and take effect upon the commencement of the Interest Accrual Period that is two (2) London Business Days following such Rate Determination Date) with respect to a LIBOR Loan and shall occur on a daily basis with respect to the Substitute Rate, of the Applicable Interest Rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) In the event that Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, as applicable, then Lender shall, by notice to Borrower (“ Lender’s Notice ”), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such circumstances, convert the Loan to a Substitute Rate Loan and establish the Applicable Interest Rate at the Substitute Rate.

(c) If pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Loan has been converted to a Substitute Rate Loan and the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable (as reasonably determined by Lender, which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error), Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower, and the Substitute Rate Loan (except for such portion thereof, if any, as Borrower shall elect to treat as a Substitute Rate Tranche) shall automatically convert to a LIBOR Loan on the effective date set forth in such notice and the Applicable Interest Rate for the initial Interest Accrual Period after such conversion shall be the LIBOR Rate.

(d) If any requirement of law, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder, (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make a LIBOR Loan shall be cancelled forthwith and (ii) Lender may give Borrower a Lender’s Notice, converting the Loan to a Substitute Rate Loan and establishing the Applicable Interest Rate at the Substitute Rate. In the event the condition necessitating the cancellation of Lender’s obligation to make a LIBOR Loan hereunder shall cease, Lender shall promptly notify Borrower of such cessation and the Loan shall resume its characteristics as a LIBOR Loan in accordance with the terms herein from and after the first day of the Interest Accrual Period next following such cessation. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any reasonable third-party out‑of‑pocket costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion under this subsection (d) in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by Lender in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder, provided , however , that, in order for any such notice to be effective to impose on Borrower the obligation to pay any such amount, such notice must be delivered by Lender within thirty (30) days after Lender should reasonably have been aware of the event giving rise to its entitlement to compensation. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be set forth in reasonable detail and Lender’s calculation shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Lender acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof, no condition exists that would permit the cancellation of Lender’s obligation to make a LIBOR Loan under this subsection (d) . Upon the occurrence of a LIBOR Cessation Event, Lender may designate a Substitute Index, which designation shall be determinative in the absence of Lender’s manifest error in selecting such index, and upon Lender’s designation of such Substitute Index and notice to Borrower, all references herein or in any other Loan Document to “LIBOR” or the “London Interbank Offered Rate” will be deemed to refer to such Substitute Index. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender shall not be permitted to determine that a LIBOR Cessation Event has occurred or to designate a Substitute Index unless, in either

case, Lender is making a similar determination or designation with respect to other borrowers of Lender that are similarly situated to Borrower after consideration of such factors as Lender then reasonably determines to be relevant.

(e) In the event that any change subsequent to the date hereof in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(i) shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital (other than as a result of an increase in taxes) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s consistently applied policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount reasonably deemed by Lender to be material;

(ii) shall hereafter impose, modify, increase or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the rate hereunder (other than as a result of an increase in taxes); or

(iii) shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;

then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by Lender; provided , however , that Borrower shall not be required under this Section 2.2.3 to pay Lender additional amounts for additional costs or reduced amounts receivable that are attributable to an increase in taxes imposed on Lender. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 , Borrower shall not be required to pay same unless they are the result of requirements imposed generally on lenders similar to Lender and not the result of some specific reserve or similar requirement imposed on Lender as a result of Lender’s special circumstances. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 , Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence, executed by an

authorized signatory of Lender and submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if reasonably feasible, Lender shall, as promptly as practicable, designate a different branch or lending office for the Loan if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, be materially disadvantageous to Lender.

(f) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold Lender harmless from any loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender generally to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder (other than consequential and punitive damages) which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on a LIBOR Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the LIBOR Loan for any reason (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the maturity of the LIBOR Loan) on a day that is not a Payment Date or the scheduled Maturity Date, and (iii) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Applicable Interest Rate to the Substitute Rate with respect to any portion of the Principal Amount on a date other than the first day of an Interest Accrual Period (such amounts referred to in clauses (i) , (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “ Breakage Costs ”). Whenever in this Section 2.2.3 the term “interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it” is used and no such funds were actually obtained from such lenders, it shall include interest or fees which would have been payable by Lender if it had obtained funds from lenders in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder. Lender will provide to Borrower a statement detailing such Breakage Costs and the calculation thereof, and such statement shall be final absent manifest error. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the damages that Lender would suffer as a result of the Loan being prepaid are difficult or impossible to ascertain and, therefore, agree that the aforesaid losses, costs or expenses are a reasonable approximation of such damages and do not constitute a penalty.

(g) The provisions of this Section 2.2.3 shall survive payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided , however , that if the additional costs set forth in this Section 2.2.3 are not claimed until after the payment or other satisfaction in full of the Indebtedness, the Lien of the Mortgage shall be released.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Loan has been converted to a Substitute Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.2.3(b) , or Section 2.2.3(d) , or if pursuant to Section 2.2.3(e) , increased costs are payable by Borrower, Borrower may, at its option and upon fifteen (15) days’ prior notice to Lender (or such shorter period of time as may be permitted by Lender in its sole discretion but subject to the timing requirements set forth in Section

2.3.1(c) ), prepay the Indebtedness in whole, but not in part, without the payment of any Prepayment Premium or other penalty but with payment of any applicable Breakage Costs.

2.2.4 Payments before Maturity . Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date beginning on January 30, 2019 throughout the term, an amount equal to interest only computed at the Applicable Interest Rate on the Principal Amount for the applicable Interest Accrual Period, and all amounts required, if any, in respect of Reserve Accounts as set forth in Article XII hereof, if any.

2.2.5 Payments Generally . Each interest accrual period (each, an “ Interest Accrual Period ”) shall commence on the thirtieth (30th) day of each calendar month during the term of the Loan and shall end on and include the twenty ninth (29th) day of the succeeding calendar month (or twenty eighth (28th) in the case of February if not a leap year). For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating any Interest Accrual Period, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately succeeding Business Day. The monthly Payment Date shall not be changed to a different calendar day unless expressly agreed to by Lender and Borrower. On the Maturity Date, interest on the Principal Amount shall be payable at the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, through and including the day immediately preceding such Maturity Date. All amounts due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense (other than prior payment) or any other deduction whatsoever.

2.2.6 Payment on Maturity Date . Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Principal Amount, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all interest that would accrue on the Principal Amount through and including the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

2.2.7 Payments after Default . Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the Principal Amount and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan, shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein, if any. Any and all payments and other sums received by Lender hereunder during the continuance of an Event of Default may be applied to the Indebtedness in such order and priority as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion, including without limitation, alternating applications thereof between interest and principal. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed and due pursuant to this Section 2.2.7 until the actual receipt and collection of the Indebtedness (or that portion thereof that is then due). To the extent permitted by applicable law, and to the extent not paid, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Indebtedness, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Mortgage. This Section 2.2.7 shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Indebtedness, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.

2.2.8 Late Payment Charge . If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents (other than the Principal Amount due and payable on the Maturity Date or upon an acceleration of the Loan) is not paid by Borrower within ten (10) days following the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender, upon demand, an amount equal to the lesser of three percent (3%) of such unpaid sum or the Maximum Legal Rate (the “ Late Payment Charge ”) in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

2.2.9 Usury Savings . This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Principal Amount at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, then the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal, without incurring any prepayment or Prepayment Premium or penalty, or any Breakage Costs, and not on account of the interest due under the Note. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

2.2.10 Gross-Up for Taxes . All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any United States future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any United States Governmental Authority, excluding (i) income taxes, branch profits tax and franchise or other taxes (imposed in lieu of income taxes) imposed on Lender as a result of a present or former connection between Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or its Note), (ii) taxes attributable to Lender’s failure to comply with Section 2.6 and (iii) any withholding taxes imposed under FATCA. If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“ Non-Excluded Taxes ”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender hereunder or under its Note, the amounts so payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable with respect to the Loan at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and its Note; provided , however , notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

in this Agreement, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to Lender (a) if Lender fails to comply with the requirements of Section 2.2.3 or (b) to the extent any increase in such amounts required to be withheld is not a result of a change in Law or treaty or (c) to the extent such claim is made for an amount more than thirty (30) days after Lender (or any assignee or participant of Lender) should reasonably have been aware of the event giving rise to such claim. With respect to (i) any participant or assignee of Lender under Section 2.2.3 and Section 2.2.11 , “change in Law or treaty” shall be compared to the Law at the time such participant or assignee acquired an interest in the Loan, and not based on the Law as of the date hereof and (ii) any other participant or assignee of Lender under Article XI , “change in Law or treaty” shall be compared to the Law as of the date hereof.. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by Borrower (for which Borrower is obligated to pay additional amounts), as promptly as possible after payment thereof Borrower shall send to Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any such Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure.

2.2.11 Designation of a Different Lending Office . (a) If any Lender requires the Borrower to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.2.10 , then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (at the request of the Borrower) if reasonably feasible and as promptly as reasonably practicable, designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2.10 in the future, and (ii) would not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, be materially disadvantageous to Lender.

(b) Replacement of Lender . If the Borrower is required to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.2.10 and such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 2.2.11 , then Borrower shall be permitted to replace such Lender, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Legal Requirements, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, such Lender’s proportional interest and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to BOC, (v) the Borrower shall pay all increased costs (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.2.10 in respect of any period prior to the date on which such replacement shall be consummated and for which Borrower received timely notice hereof in accordance with said provisions, (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, BOC or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (vii) in no event shall Borrower be permitted to replace BOC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Borrower is permitted to replace Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.11 ,

BOC shall have the first opportunity to acquire the interests of the Lender being replaced. If BOC does not agree to acquire the interests of the Lender being replaced within ten (10) Business Days of written notice from Borrower, Borrower may find an alternate replacement financial institution subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.11 .

Section 2.3 Prepayments .

2.3.1 Voluntary Prepayments .

(b) Subsequent to the Prepayment Premium Period End Date, Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without any premium or penalty, if, concurrently with, and as a condition to such prepayment, Borrower pays to Lender (i) all accrued interest and applicable Breakage Costs, (ii) all other amounts due to Lender under the Loan Documents, and (iii) any amounts due and payable by Borrower under any Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement in connection with the termination thereof;

(c) Prior to any prepayment of the Loan in accordance with this Section 2.3.1 , Borrower shall provide prior written notice to Lender specifying the Business Day upon which the prepayment is to be made (the “ Prepayment Date ”), which notice shall be delivered to Lender not less than five (5) days prior to such Prepayment Date or such shorter period of time as may be permitted by Lender in its sole discretion as long as any such notice is delivered to Lender at least three (3) Business Days prior to such Prepayment Date; provided, that, if any such notice is provided by Borrower to Lender prior to 10 a.m. NY time, such notice shall deemed to be effective the next Business Day and if such notice is delivered on or after 10 a.m. NY time, such notice shall be deemed to be effective two (2) Business days after the date sent. Borrower may rescind its notice of prepayment and/or adjourn the prepayment on a day-to-day basis upon two (2) Business Days written notice to Lender if such notice is received by Lender prior to 10 a.m. NY time and upon three (3) Business Days written notice to Lender if such notice is received by Lender on or after 10 a.m. NY Time (subject to payment of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses resulting from such rescission); and

(d) Borrower shall pay to Lender any and all Breakage Costs due in connection with such prepayment or rescission or adjournment thereof.

2.3.3 Prepayments After Default .

Section 2.4 Intentionally Omitted .

Section 2.5 Release on Payment in Full . If Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid the Principal Amount of, and unpaid interest on, and all other sums due under, the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof, at the request of Borrower, Lender shall (a) assign the Note, the Mortgage and all of the other Loan Documents to any Person designated by Borrower, which assignment documents shall be in recordable form (but without representation or warranty by, or recourse to, Lender, except that Lender shall represent that such assignment(s) has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and that Lender has not assigned or encumbered the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents); provided , however , that the assignment documents shall be prepared by counsel to Borrower and delivered to Lender for its review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (b) deliver to or as directed by Borrower the originally executed Note and all originally executed other notes which may have been consolidated, amended and/or restated in connection with the execution of the Note or, with respect to any note where the original has been lost by Lender, destroyed or mutilated, a lost note affidavit with indemnity for the benefit of the assignee lender and the title insurance company insuring the Mortgage, as assigned, in form sufficient to permit such title insurance company to insure the lien of the Mortgage as assigned to and held by the assignee without exception for any matter relating to the lost, destroyed or mutilated note, (c) execute and deliver an allonge with respect to the Note and any other note(s) as

(c) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by

applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Interest Rate Protection Agreement being assigned to Lender is a swap agreement, the parties hereto agree that if any amounts payable to the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower, as applicable, pursuant to such swap agreement are in excess of the strike price required hereunder, then such amounts shall be payable to the Borrower and not Lender and the Assignment of Interest Rate Protection Agreement entered into in connection with such swap agreement shall provide for the same.

At any time an Interest Rate Protection Agreement is required hereunder, if Lender receives any payments under an Interest Rate Protection Agreement during the continuance of an Event of Default or by

reason of a termination event under an Interest Rate Protection Agreement, Lender shall have the right to hold the same, to deposit the same in a cash collateral account as additional security for the Loan or to apply same to any portion of the Indebtedness in any order it desires or, if an Interest Rate Protection Agreement has been partially or wholly terminated, Lender shall disburse any termination payments to Borrower to be applied to the costs of acquiring another Interest Rate Protection Agreement (if then required hereunder) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, and from a counterparty having a Minimum Counterparty Rating.

Best, provided that if such insurance is provided by a syndicate of five or more insurers, then only 60% of the members of the syndicate (or 75% if four or fewer insurers comprise the syndicate) must have the above rating with the remaining insurers having a rating not less than “BBB” from S&P or A-/VIII by A.M. Best. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted to maintain the insurance policies required hereunder with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “ Otherwise Rated Insurer ”), provided Borrower obtains a “cut through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) reasonably approved by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above;

(b) with respect to all property insurance policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear as mortgagee;

(c) with respect to all property insurance policies and rental loss and/or business interruption insurance policies, contain a “Standard Mortgagee Clause” and a “Lender’s Loss Payable” provision, or their equivalents, naming Lender as the person to whom payments will be made as its interest shall appear;

(d) with respect to all liability policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as an additional insured;

(e) contain a waiver of subrogation in favor of Lender; and

(f) contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest, including endorsements if not already contained in the policy language providing that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a co‑insurer under said insurance policies.

Borrower shall pay the insurance premiums as the same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the insurance policies with receipts for the payment of the insurance premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender ( provided , however , that Borrower shall not be required to pay such insurance premiums nor furnish such evidence of payment to Lender in the event that the amounts required to pay such insurance premiums have been deposited into the Insurance Reserve Account pursuant to Section 12.2 ).

6.1.3 Form of Insurance Policies; Endorsements . All insurance policies shall be in such form and with such endorsements as are reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Certificates of insurance with respect to all of the above mentioned insurance policies have been delivered to and approved by Lender and copies of all such policies shall be delivered to Lender within ten (10) days of request by Lender, provided that if Borrower is not yet in receipt of such policies Borrower shall not be obligated to deliver such policies until five (5) days after its receipt thereof. All

policies (except for worker’s compensation) shall name Lender as an additional insured, shall provide that all Proceeds (except Proceeds of general liability, motor vehicle liability and workers’ compensation insurance) be payable to Lender as its interests may appear. All property policies shall contain: (a) a standard “non‑contributory mortgagee” provision or its equivalent relating, inter alia, to recovery by Lender notwithstanding the acts or omissions of Borrower; (b) a provision providing that no policy shall be impaired or invalidated by virtue of any act, failure to act, negligence of, or violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy by Borrower, Lender or any other named insured, additional insured or loss payee, except for the willful misconduct of Lender knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy (a “ Lender’s Loss Payable ” provision shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this clause (b) ); and (c) a provision that such policies shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender, in each instance (or ten (10) days’ notice, in case of cancellation for nonpayment of premiums). Each insurance policy shall contain a provision whereby the insurer: (i) waives any right to claim any premiums and commissions against Lender, provided that the policy need not waive the requirement that the premium be paid in order for a claim to be paid to the insured; and (ii) provides that Lender at its option, shall be permitted to make payments to effect the continuation of such policy upon notice of cancellation due to non‑payment of premiums. In the event any insurance policy (except for general public and other liability and workers’ compensation insurance) shall contain breach of warranty provisions, such policy shall provide that with respect to the interest of Lender, such insurance policy shall not be invalidated by and shall insure Lender regardless of (a) any act, unintentional failure to act, declarations or conditions contained in such policy by any named insured except for the willful misconduct of Lender committed knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy, (b) the occupancy or use of the Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms thereof, or (c) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by Lender pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

6.1.4 Policies; Certificates . Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant this Section 6.1 , provided, however, Lender shall not be deemed by reason of the custody of such insurance policies to have knowledge of the contents thereof. Borrower also shall deliver to Lender, within ten (10) days of Lender’s request, a certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages set forth herein together with evidence that all insurance premiums due thereon have been paid and that such coverages are in full force and effect. Not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration date of each of the insurance policies, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a certificate of insurance, evidencing renewal of coverage as required herein of all such renewal insurance policies and if Borrower fails to provide such documentation to Lender at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration date of such insurance policies, Lender has the right, in its sole discretion, to force place such insurance policies provided that Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide in such forced placed insurance that the applicable insurance policies will be terminable and the premiums thereunder refundable for any period of time in which such policies are not in effect. If Lender receives such certificates of insurance and insurance company issued binders subsequent to such three (3) Business Day period but prior to the expiration of the applicable insurance policies, then Lender shall not force place such insurance policies if it has not already done so. Borrower hereby agrees

that Borrower shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with force placing insurance in accordance with this Section 6.1.4 hereof and the subsequent termination or cancellation of any such forced placed insurance policies. Prior to thirty (30) days after renewal, Borrower shall provide evidence satisfactory to Lender that the insurance policies for such renewal shall have been paid.

6.1.5 Loss Valuation; Deductibles; Co-Insurance; Insurable Interests other than Lender’s; Separate Insurance . Borrower shall not take out separate insurance contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 6.1 . In addition, all policies shall contain coverage for tenant improvements and betterments that Borrower is required to insure pursuant to the applicable Leases. All Property insurance also shall include coverage on a Replacement Cost basis with a co-insurance waiver or Agreed Amount Endorsement. The amount of any deductible under any policy must be reasonably acceptable to Lender. Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower shall not name any Person other than Lender, as Mortgagee, Lender Loss Payee or Loss Payee, as it pertains to the Property-related first party insurance coverages; provided , that, if blanket policies are obtained, this sentence shall not apply to property covered by such blanket policies other than the Improvements and such tenant improvements and betterments that Borrower is required to insure pursuant to applicable Leases.

6.1.6 Blanket Policies . Any blanket insurance policy shall provide the same protection as would a separate insurance policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.1 . Lender, in its reasonable discretion, shall determine whether such blanket policies provide sufficient limits of insurance

6.1.7 Limitation on Terrorism Coverages . The Terrorism Policy shall be on terms consistent with those required under Section 6.1.1(b)(iv) and Section 6.1.1(e)(iv) above at all times during the term of the Loan, subject to the annual limit on insurance premiums therefore equal to the Terrorism Premium Limit.

6.1.8 Foreclosure . Upon written notice to and written approval from insurance carriers, in the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the policies that are not blanket policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

6.1.9 Captive Insurance Company .

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.1.1 , the Terrorism Policy required pursuant to either Section 6.1.1(b)(iv) or Section 6.1.1(e)(iv ) may be issued by a captive insurance company wholly-owned and Controlled by an Affiliate of Borrower (a “ Captive Insurance Company ”); provided that:

(i) unless Lender agrees otherwise in writing, TRIPRA shall be in full force and effect;

(ii) except with respect to the deductible permitted hereunder, those covered losses which are not reinsured by the federal government under TRIPRA and payable directly to the insured shall be reinsured by an insurance company which satisfies the requirements of Section 6.1.2 ;

(iii) all re-insurance agreements between such Captive Insurance Company and all such re-insurance companies providing the referenced re-insurance shall be approved by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such re-insurance agreements to provide for direct access to such re-insurers by all named insureds, loss payees and mortgagees which such insurance benefits;

(iv) such Captive Insurance Company shall not be the subject of bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding;

(v) such Captive Insurance Company shall be prohibited from conducting any business other than the issuance of terrorism insurance policies and any other contemplated insurance coverage approved by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, for properties in which Affiliates of Guarantor have an ownership interest equal to or greater than 50%.

(xii) except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 6.1.9 , all such insurance provided by such Captive Insurance Company shall otherwise comply with all other terms and conditions of Section 6.1.1 and Section 6.1.2 .

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.1. 2 or in this Section 6.1.9 , any insurance required under Section 6.1.1 may be provided by a Captive Insurance Company with the prior written consent of Lender and subject to Lender’s review and approval of Policies and other documentation reasonably requested by Lender and the satisfaction of such other conditions as Lender may reasonably require.

Section 6.2 Condemnation and Insurance Proceeds .

6.2.1 Notification . Borrower shall promptly notify Lender in writing upon obtaining knowledge of (a) the institution of any proceedings relating to any Taking (whether material or immaterial) of, or (b) the occurrence of any casualty, damage or injury to, the Property or any portion thereof, the restoration of which is estimated by Borrower in good faith to cost more than the Casualty Amount. In addition, each such notice shall set forth such good faith estimate of the cost of repairing or restoring such casualty, damage, injury or Taking in reasonable detail if the same is then available and, if not, as soon thereafter as it can reasonably be provided.

6.2.2 Proceeds . In the event of any Taking of or any casualty or other damage or injury to the Property, Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all compensation, awards, proceeds, damages, claims, insurance recoveries, causes and rights of action (whether accrued prior to or

101

after the date hereof) and payments which Borrower may receive or to which Borrower may become entitled with respect to the Property or any part thereof other than payments received in connection with any liability or loss of rental value or business interruption insurance (collectively, “ Proceeds ”), in connection with any such Taking of, or casualty or other damage or injury to, the Property or any part thereof are, except as otherwise herein provided, hereby assigned by Borrower to Lender and shall, except as otherwise herein provided, be paid to Lender. Borrower shall, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, file and prosecute the adjustment, compromise or settlement of any claim for Proceeds and, subject to Borrower’s right to receive the direct payment of any Proceeds as herein provided, will cause the same to be paid directly to Lender to be held and applied in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower may settle any insurance claim with respect to Proceeds which does not exceed the Casualty Amount. Whether or not a Monetary Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall have the right to approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, any settlement which would in Lender’s reasonable judgment result in any Proceeds in excess of the Casualty Amount and Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to permit such approval. Borrower shall pay all reasonable out‑of‑pocket costs, fees and expenses reasonably incurred by Lender (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, the reasonable fees of insurance experts and adjusters and reasonable costs incurred in any litigation or arbitration), and interest thereon at the Default Rate to the extent not paid within fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of a request for reimbursement by Lender, accompanied by reasonable back‑up documentation, in connection with the settlement of any claim for Proceeds and the seeking and obtaining of any payment on account thereof in accordance with the foregoing provisions. If any Proceeds are received by Borrower and may be retained by Borrower pursuant to this Section 6.2 , such Proceeds shall, until the completion of the related Work, be held in trust for Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower to be used to pay for the cost of the Work in accordance with the terms hereof, and to the extent such Proceeds exceed the Casualty Amount, such Proceeds shall be forthwith paid directly to and held by Lender in trust for Borrower, in each case to be applied or disbursed in accordance with this Section 6.2 . If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or if Borrower fails to file any insurance claim for a period of fifteen (15) Business Days, or to prosecute same with commercially reasonable diligence following Borrower’s receipt of written notice to do so from Lender, Borrower hereby irrevocably empowers Lender, in the name of Borrower as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to file and prosecute such claim (including settlement thereof) with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lender and to collect and to make receipt for any such payment, all at Borrower’s expense (including payment of interest at the Default Rate for any amounts advanced by Lender pursuant to this sentence and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but excluding all situations requiring prepayment of the Note, to the extent any Proceeds (either singly or when aggregated with all other then-unapplied Proceeds with respect to the Property) do not exceed the Casualty Amount, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Proceeds are to be paid directly to Borrower to be applied to restoration of the Property in accordance with the terms hereof (except that Proceeds paid in respect of the insurance

102

described in Section 6.1.1(e)(vi) shall be deposited directly to the Collection Account as revenue of the Property).

6.2.3 Lender to Take Proceeds . If (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (b) no Total Loss with respect to the Property shall have occurred, (c) with respect to a Condemnation, appropriate access and egress remain, (d) the Work is capable of being completed before the date which is the earlier of (x) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, and (y) the expiration of Borrower’s Time Element coverage referred to in Section 6.1.1(e)(ii) above, (e) the Property is capable of being restored substantially to its condition prior to such Taking or casualty and (f) Lender shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that upon the completion of the restoration and expiration of any extended period of indemnity pursuant to any business interruption insurance, no Trigger Period shall have occurred and be continuing (provided that Borrower shall have the right to prepay a portion of the Principal Amount or deliver cash or a Letter of Credit to Lender to achieve a Debt Yield that equals or exceeds the Trigger Period Threshold); then in any such case, all Proceeds shall be applied to Borrower’s cost of restoration in accordance with Section 6.2.4 , and any Proceeds remaining after such application (including reimbursement of Lender’s reasonable out‑of‑pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with recovery of such Proceeds and their application hereunder (including, without limitation, reasonable out‑of‑pocket administrative costs and inspection fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements)) shall be remitted to Borrower. In the event that Lender shall not be required to apply any Proceeds to Borrower’s cost of restoration, then such Proceeds may be applied by Lender to prepay the Note, in accordance with the provisions thereof, without any prepayment or Prepayment Premium or penalty or similar payment, and the balance, if any shall be paid to Borrower. If the Proceeds so applied shall be insufficient to repay the Loan in full, Borrower may repay all (but not less than all) of such balance of the Loan in full without any Prepayment Premium or penalty.

6.2.4 Borrower to Restore . (a) Promptly after the occurrence of any damage or destruction to all or any portion of the Property or a Taking of a portion of the Property, Borrower shall commence and diligently prosecute, or cause to be commenced and diligently prosecuted, to completion, subject to Excusable Delay, and delays directly caused by Lender’s failure to respond within a commercially reasonable prompt time to requests for approval of plans or other requests for approvals pursuant to this Section 6.2.4 for which, in either case, a specific period of time is not specified, the repair, restoration and rebuilding of the Property (in the case of a partial Taking, to the extent it is capable of being restored) so damaged, destroyed or remaining after such Taking in full compliance with all material Legal Requirements and free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Encumbrances (such repair, restoration and rebuilding are sometimes collectively referred to as the “ Work ”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Work be done in a good and workmanlike manner at least substantially equivalent to the quality and character of the Property and reasonably equivalent to the value of the Property prior to the damage or destruction, so that upon completion thereof, the Property shall be at least equal in general utility and condition to the Property prior to the damage or destruction, subject to any restrictions on Borrower’s ability to do so which may be imposed by any applicable Legal Requirements ( provided , however , that

103

in the case of a partial Taking, the Property restoration shall be done to the extent reasonably practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Taking); it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Property to the precise condition of the Property prior to any partial Taking of, or casualty or other damage or injury to, the Property, if the Work actually performed, if any, or failed to be performed, would not reasonably be expected to have, and does not have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property from the value that the Property would have had if the same had been restored to its precise condition immediately prior to such Taking, casualty or other damage or injury. Borrower shall be obligated to restore the Property suffering a casualty or which has been subject to a partial Taking in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.2 at Borrower’s sole cost and expense whether or not the Proceeds shall be sufficient, provided that, if required pursuant to this Agreement, the Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower by Lender in accordance with this Agreement;

(b) If Proceeds are not applied toward payment of the Indebtedness pursuant to the terms hereof and Borrower has satisfied all of the conditions of Section 6.2.3 , then Lender shall make the Proceeds which it is holding pursuant to the terms hereof (after payment of any reasonable out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually incurred by Lender in connection with the collection thereof plus interest thereon at the Default Rate (from the date advanced through the date of reimbursement) to the extent the same are not paid within fifteen (15) Business Days after request for reimbursement by Lender, accompanied by reasonable back‑up documentation) available to Borrower for payment of or reimbursement of Borrower’s expenses incurred with respect to the Work, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in sub‑paragraphs (i) , (ii) , (iii) and (iv) below and in Section 6.2.5 :

(i) at the time of the requested disbursement, there shall be no continuing Event of Default;

(ii) if, at any time, the estimated cost of the Work (as estimated by the Independent Architect referred to in sub‑paragraph (iv) below) shall exceed the sum of the Proceeds by more than the Threshold Amount (the amount of such excess over the Threshold Amount being a “ Deficiency ”) and for so long as a Deficiency shall exist, Lender shall not be required to make any Proceeds disbursement to Borrower unless Borrower (within a reasonable period of time after receipt of such estimate), at its election, either deposits with or delivers to Lender (a) Cash or Cash Equivalents, a Letter or Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the Deficiency or (b) such other evidence of Borrower’s ability to meet such excess costs as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender;

(iii) If the Work shall constitute an Alteration that would require Lender’s consent pursuant to Section 9.2 , then each of Lender and the Independent Architect shall have reasonably approved the plans and specifications for the Work

104

and any material change orders in connection with such plans and specifications; and

(iv) Lender shall, within a reasonable period of time prior to Borrower’s request for initial disbursement, be furnished with an estimate of the cost of the Work accompanied by an Independent Architect’s certification as to such costs. Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable Legal Requirements including zoning, environmental and building laws, codes, ordinances and regulations.

6.2.5 Disbursement of Proceeds . (a) Disbursements of the Proceeds to Borrower hereunder shall be made from time to time (but not more frequently than once in any month) by Lender but only for so long as no Monetary Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, as the Work progresses upon receipt by Lender of (i) a Borrower’s Certificate dated not more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the application for such payment, requesting such payment or reimbursement and describing the Work performed that is the subject of such request, the parties that performed such Work and the actual cost thereof, and also certifying that such Work and materials are or, upon disbursement of the payment requested to the parties entitled thereto, will be free and clear of Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed in connection with such Work have been or, upon disbursement of the payment requested to the parties entitled thereto, will be paid for in full, and (B) there exists no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s liens or notices of intention to file same (unless the same is required by State law as a condition to the payment of a contractor) or any liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Work which have not been either fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender or discharged of record or in the alternative, fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender by the Title Company that issued the Title Policy, and (iii) an Independent Architect’s certificate certifying performance of the Work together with an estimate of the cost to complete the Work. No payment made prior to the final completion of the Work, as certified by the Independent Architect, except for payment made to contractors whose Work shall have been fully completed and from which final lien waivers have been received, shall exceed ninety percent (90%) (the “ Retainage Release Threshold ”) of the value of the Work performed and materials furnished and incorporated into the Improvements from time to time until such time as fifty percent (50%) of such Work has been satisfactorily completed (as certified by the Independent Architect), at which time the Retainage Release Threshold with respect to such Work shall be increased to ninety‑five percent (95%), and at all times the undisbursed balance of said Proceeds together with all amounts deposited, bonded, guaranteed or otherwise provided for pursuant to Section 6.2.4(b)(ii) above, shall be at least sufficient to pay for the estimated cost of completion of the Work; final payment of all Proceeds remaining with Lender shall be made upon receipt by Lender of a certification by an Independent Architect, as to the completion of the Work substantially in accordance with the submitted plans and specifications and final lien releases, as certified pursuant to a Borrower’s Certificate, and delivery of a certificate of occupancy or

105

temporary certificate of occupancy with respect to the Work, or, if not applicable, a Borrower’s Certificate to the effect that neither a certificate of occupancy or temporary certificate of occupancy is required. If Lender shall fail to disburse the Proceeds to Borrower in accordance with this Section 6.2.5(a) , Borrower shall be entitled to prepay the Loan without any prepayment or Prepayment Premium or penalty or similar payment.

(b) If, after the Work is completed in accordance with the provisions hereof and Lender receives evidence that all costs of completion have been paid, there are excess Proceeds, Lender shall, provided , no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) in the event such Proceeds relate to a Taking, apply such excess Proceeds with respect to such Taking of the Property to the payment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Indebtedness secured hereby without any Prepayment Premium or penalty, and any balance thereof, shall be paid to Borrower, and (ii) in the event such Proceeds relate to a casualty to the Property, remit to Borrower such excess Proceeds with respect to such casualty to the Property.

In the event of a conflict between the terms this Section 6.2 concerning the use of Proceeds in the event of any Taking of or any casualty or other damage or injury to the Property and the terms of the Declaration or the by-laws of the Condominium which were recorded with the Declaration, as such by-laws may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the “ Condominium By-Laws ”) or applicable law regarding the same, the terms and provisions of the Declaration or Condominium By-Laws or applicable law shall prevail. However, if pursuant to the terms of the Declaration or Condominium By-Laws or applicable law any Proceeds are paid to Borrower, then the terms of this Section 6.2 will govern the disposition of such Proceeds. In the event of any Taking of or any casualty or other damage or injury to the Property which requires a vote of the unit owners of the Condominium to repair and restore the Improvements or the building in which the Improvements are located, Borrower shall not exercise any right it may have to vote against restoration of the Improvements without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

If such action or proceeding is terminated or discontinued adversely to Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Lender reasonable evidence of Borrower’s compliance with such contested Imposition, Lien, Legal Requirements or Insurance Requirements, as the case may be.

Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s or Borrower’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right at any time to require Borrower to execute and deliver “component” notes having varying principal amounts and economic terms (including senior and junior notes), which notes may be paid in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided , however , that (a) such notes may not effectuate a mortgage/mezzanine loan structure, (b) the aggregate principal amount of such “component” notes shall equal the Principal Amount immediately prior to the creation of such “component” notes, (c) the weighted average interest rate of all such “component” notes shall on the date created and at all times thereafter equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such “component” notes (i.e., under this clause (c) and the immediately following clause (d), the “component” notes may not effectuate a loan structure that

124

could result in “rate creep”), (d) the debt service payments on all such “component” notes shall on the date created and at all times thereafter equal the debt service payment which was due under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such component notes (taking into account any prepayments of the Principal Amount), (e) the other terms and provisions of each of the “component” notes shall be identical in substance and substantially similar in form to the Loan Documents, (f) the maturity date of any such component note shall be the same as the scheduled Maturity Date of the Note immediately prior to the issuance of such component notes, and (g) any prepayments in connection with a casualty or condemnation shall be applied pro rata in accordance with their respective principal balances to the payment of the outstanding balance of the component notes such that Borrower’s economic position shall remain the same as if there had been no component notes. Borrower, at Lender’s cost and expense, shall (i) cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the “component” notes, and (ii) execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including, without limitation, the severance of security documents if requested.

Provided that Lender has complied, in all material respects, with all of Lender’s obligations in this Section 11. 5, it shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 11.5 after expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof, which notice shall contain a legend in capitalized bold letters at the top of the cover page stating: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR BORROWER TO EXECUTE AND DELIVER “COMPONENT” NOTES.

(a) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined those portions of such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, reasonably designated in writing by Lender for Borrower’s review regarding Borrower, the Property, and/or the Provided Information and insofar as such sections or portions thereof specifically pertain to Borrower, the Property or the Provided Information (such portions, the “Relevant Portions” ), the Relevant Portions do not (except to the extent specified by Borrower if Borrower does not agree with the statements therein), as of the date of such certificate, to Borrower’s actual knowledge, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) indemnifying Lender and the Affiliates of Bank of China, New York Branch (collectively, “BOC” ) that have prepared the Disclosure Document relating to the Securitization, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Disclosure Document and each Person who controls BOC within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “BOC Group” ), and BOC, together with the BOC Group, each of their respective directors and each person who controls BOC or the BOC Group, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group” ), for any actual, verifiable, out-of-pocket losses, third-party claims, or damages arising therefrom (excluding lost profits, diminution in value and other consequential damages) or liabilities arising out of third party claims (the “Liabilities” ) to which any member of the Underwriter Group is subject to the extent such Liabilities directly result from any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Relevant Portions and in the Provided Information or directly result from the omission by Borrower to state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Relevant Portions in order to make the statements in the Relevant Portions in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that (1) Borrower’s

127

obligation to indemnify in respect of any information contained in the Relevant Portions or in the Provided Information that is derived in part from information provided by Borrower and in part from information provided by others unrelated to or not employed by Borrower shall be limited to any untrue statement or omission of material fact therein actually known to Borrower that results directly from an error in any information provided (or which should have been provided) by Borrower which Borrower has been given the opportunity to examine and reasonably and promptly approve, and (2) Borrower shall have no responsibility for the failure of any member of the Underwriting Group to accurately transcribe written information supplied by Borrower or to include such portions of the Provided Information).

(c) Borrower’s liability under paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be limited to Liabilities directly resulting from any such untrue statement or omission made in a Disclosure Document in reasonable reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Lender by, or furnished at the direction and on behalf of, Borrower in connection with the Relevant Portions or in the Provided Information, including financial statements of Borrower and operating statements with respect to the Property. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have under any of the Loan Documents or at law, in equity or otherwise.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 11.9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 11.9 , notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 11.9 of its assumption of such defense, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided , however , if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or in conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel (reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party) to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of separate counsel unless an indemnified

128

party shall have reasonably and in good faith concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in conflict with those available to another indemnified party.

(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided for in this Section 11.9 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any actual, verifiable, out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages or liabilities relating to third-party claims (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under this Section 11.9 , the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such actual, verifiable out-of-pocket losses, third party claims, damages or liabilities arising therefrom (or action in respect thereof) (but excluding damages for lost profits, diminution in value of the Property and consequential damages); provided , however , that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution for Liabilities arising therefrom from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In addition, no right of contribution may be enforced by any party who shall have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the actions or omissions that led to such liabilities. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (1) the BOC Group’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (2) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; (3) the limited responsibilities and obligations of Borrower as specified herein; and (4) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.

Lender shall pay the standard monthly servicing fee of the servicer. If Borrower sends any payment, notice or other reports or documentation required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to a servicer who has been replaced with a new servicer because Borrower has not been given prior written notice of a change in the servicer, then no default or Event of Default shall occur hereunder or under any other Loan Document by reason of the fact that such payment was made or such notice or other reports or documentation was sent by Borrower to the terminated servicer.

ARTICLE XII

RESERVE ACCOUNTS

129

Section 12.1 Tax Reserve Account .

12.1.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 12.1.2 and Section 12.1.3 , Borrower shall deposit with Lender to be held in the Tax Reserve Account on each Payment Date an amount equal to (a) one‑twelfth (1/12 ^th ) of the annual Impositions that Lender reasonably estimates, based on the most recent tax bill for the Property, will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Impositions at least ten (10) days prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the non‑payment thereof, and (b) one‑twelfth (1/12 ^th ) of the annual Other Charges that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months (said monthly amounts in clauses (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “ Monthly Tax Reserve Amount ,” and the aggregate amount of funds held in the Tax Reserve Account from time to time being the “ Tax Reserve Amount ”). Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall apply the Tax Reserve Amount, if any, to payments of Impositions and Other Charges required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Article V and Article VII and under the Mortgage, subject to Borrower’s right to contest Impositions and Other Charges in accordance with Section 7.3 . In making any payment relating to the Tax Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office, without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of funds in the Tax Reserve Account shall exceed the amounts due for Impositions and Other Charges pursuant to Article V and Article VII , Lender shall credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax Reserve Account. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax Reserve Amount is not or will not be sufficient to pay Impositions and Other Charges by the dates set forth above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender reasonably estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least ten (10) days prior to the imposition of any interest, charges or expenses for the non‑payment of the Impositions and Other Charges. Upon payment of the Impositions and Other Charges, Lender shall reassess the amount necessary to be deposited in the Tax Reserve Account for the succeeding period, which calculation shall take into account any excess amounts remaining in the Tax Reserve Account.

12.1.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default or Trigger Period has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall not be required to make deposits of the Monthly Tax Reserve Amount. At such time, if any, as an Event of Default or Trigger Period shall have occurred and be continuing Borrower shall, subject to the terms and provisions of Sections 12.1.3 and 12.9 hereof, thereafter commence making deposits of the Monthly Tax Reserve Amount, to the extent not otherwise transferred from the Cash Management Account pursuant to Section 3.1.7 hereof and the Cash Management Agreement.

The foregoing provisions shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of its right to pursue any other remedies available to it under this Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Any payment hereunder may be enforced

143

and recovered in whole or in part at such time by one or more of the remedies provided to Lender in the Loan Documents.

Section 13.2 Remedies . (a) Unless waived in writing by Lender, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and following the expiration of any applicable cure periods or grace periods, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Indebtedness shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender shall not be subject to any one action or election of remedies law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Indebtedness or the Indebtedness has been paid in full.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with respect to the Account Collateral, Lender may, in Lender’s sole discretion:

(i) without notice to Borrower, except as required by law, and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Account Collateral against the Obligations, Operating Expenses and/or Capital Expenditures for the Property or any part thereof;

(ii) at any time and from time to time, exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under this Agreement, and/or as a secured party under the UCC;

(iii) demand, collect, take possession of or receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose or realize upon the Account Collateral (or any portion thereof); and

(iv) take all other actions provided in, or contemplated by, this Agreement.

144

(c) With respect to Borrower, the Account Collateral and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Indebtedness, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Indebtedness. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose this Agreement and the Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by this Agreement or the Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable cure or grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal or interest, Lender may foreclose this Agreement and the Mortgage to recover such delinquent payments; or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Principal Amount, Lender may foreclose this Agreement and the Mortgage to recover so much of the Principal Amount as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by this Agreement or the Mortgage as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to this Agreement and the Mortgage to secure payment of sums secured by this Agreement and the Mortgage and not previously recovered.

Section 13.3 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers . The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement and the Mortgage shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

Section 13.4 Costs of Collection . In the event that after an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof: (a) the Note or any of the Loan Documents is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding; (b) an attorney is retained to represent Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or other proceedings affecting creditors’ rights and involving a claim under the Note or any of the Loan Documents; or (c) an attorney is retained to protect or enforce the lien or any of the terms of this Agreement, the Mortgage or any of the Loan Documents, then, in any such instance, Borrower shall pay to Lender all reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith, including costs of appeal, together with interest on any judgment obtained by Lender at the Default Rate.

155

Borrower’s expense resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel at Borrower’s reasonable expense for the insurer of the liability or by counsel designated by Borrower (unless reasonably disapproved by Lender promptly after Lender has been notified of such counsel, in which case Borrower may designate alternative counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lender); provided , however , that nothing herein shall compromise the right of Lender (or any Indemnified Party) to appoint its own counsel at Borrower’s expense for its defense with respect to any action which in its reasonable opinion presents a conflict or potential conflict between Lender and Borrower that would make such separate representation advisable; and, provided , further , that if Lender shall have appointed separate counsel pursuant to the foregoing, Borrower shall not be responsible for the expense of additional separate counsel of any Indemnified Party unless in the reasonable opinion of Lender a conflict or potential conflict exists between such Indemnified Party and Lender.

Any Indemnified Party will give Borrower prompt notice after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of any potential claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification hereunder. Borrower shall have the right to settle or compromise any action, proceeding or claim against any Indemnified Party so long as the same does not include any admission of wrongdoing on the part of such Indemnified Party.

In addition, any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated

ARTICLE III. CONDITION OF DEMISED PREMISES.

Section 3.01. Landlord’s Work:

(a) Within a reasonable time after this Lease is executed and delivered by both parties and counterparts exchanged, Landlord shall apply to the appropriate governmental authorities for any building permit which shall be required in connection with the performance of Landlord’s Work.

(b) Within a reasonable time after the issuance of a building permit referred to in subsection (a), or if no building permit is required, within a reasonable time after the execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord shall commence to perform Landlord’s Work. Landlord shall prosecute Landlord’s Work to completion with reasonable diligence and without obligation, however, to employ contractors or labor at overtime or other premium pay rates.

(c) Except for the performance of Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall accept possession of the Demised Premises in its present “as is” condition, with no warranties or representations whatsoever in respect of such condition except as expressly set forth herein.

(d) The term "Substantial Completion" or words of similar import shall mean that the applicable work has been substantially completed in accordance with the applicable plans or specifications, if any, it being agreed that such work shall be deemed substantially complete notwithstanding the fact that

minor or insubstantial details of construction or demolition, mechanical adjustment or decorative items remain to be performed.

(e) If the Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work is delayed due to (A) any act or omission of Tenant or any of its employees, agents, architects, contractors or suppliers, including without limitation, any failure by Tenant to make any payment or to perform any obligation under this Lease required prior to the completion of Landlord’s Work, (B) any failure by Tenant or its employees, agents, architects, contractors or suppliers to comply with any legal requirements or governmental regulations or to plan or execute the Initial Tenant’s Work diligently and expeditiously, (C) Tenant’s request for substitutions, revisions, additions or changed materials, work or installations, (D) any changes to the plans and specifications for the Initial Tenant’s Work or (E) any failure by Tenant or its employees, agents, architects, contractors or suppliers to reasonably cooperate with Landlord or its employees, agents, architects, contractors or suppliers in connection with Landlord’s Work or the Initial Tenant’s Work, then any such delay shall constitute “Tenant Delay(s) ” . The foregoing definition of Tenant Delay(s) shall also apply to any other work, replacement, repair or restoration required to be performed by Landlord under this Lease except that the defined terms used therein shall apply generally to the work, plans, specifications, construction schedules, etc. to be performed or supplied by Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, in connection with such work, replacement, repairs or restoration. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of Tenant’s Delay(s) and the time periods for Landlord to complete its obligations hereunder shall be tolled by the number of days of Tenant Delay to the extent such delay is attributable to a Tenant Delay.

(f) If Tenant desires any change to Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall submit a written request to Landlord, together with a set of preliminary plans showing such requested changes (“Proposed Changes”). Within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s receipt of such Proposed Changes, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a written estimate of the cost to perform such Proposed Changes. Tenant shall, in writing, within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord’s estimate, either accept such estimate or withdraw its request for the Proposed Changes. If Tenant accepts such estimate: (i) Landlord shall cause its architect to prepare final plans for such Proposed Changes, (ii) such work shall become part of Landlord’s Work but shall be paid for by Tenant within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlord’s invoice; (iii) any delay caused by such change shall be a Tenant Delay (provided such Tenant Delay was not directly caused by Landlord); and (iv) Landlord shall perform the change using Landlord’s contractors. Tenant’s failure to accept Landlord’s estimate or withdraw its request within the ten (10) days following receipt of Landlord’s estimate shall be deemed a withdrawal of Tenant’s Proposed Changes. If Tenant withdraws, or is deemed to have withdrawn, its request for the Proposed Changes, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any amounts reasonably incurred by Landlord in reviewing the Proposed Changes, including without limitation any architect’s fees incurred in reviewing the preliminary plans submitted as a part of the Proposed Changes, within ten (10) days following Landlord’s demand therefor.

Section 3.02. Delivery of Possession:

(a) The Term of this Lease as defined in Section 1.03 shall commence on the date on which Landlord shall have tendered possession of the Demised Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work Substantially Completed (such date, the “Commencement Date”). The Term shall expire on the Expiration Date. Upon the earlier of (i) the date Tenant enters the Demised Premises to perform any Tenant’s Work, or (ii) the Commencement Date, all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall be applicable, except for Tenant’s obligations to pay Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent, Tax Contribution, and Tenant’s Contribution which obligations to pay Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent, Tax Contribution, and Tenant’s Contribution shall commence on the Rent Commencement Date. If the Demised Premises are presently occupied by another tenant, Landlord shall have no obligation to make the Demised Premises available to Tenant until a date after Landlord regains possession of the Demised Premises from the tenant presently occupying the same. Failure of Landlord to deliver possession of the Demised Premises in the manner and condition as provided for in this Lease will not give rise to any claim for damages by Tenant against Landlord, or Landlord’s contractor, or permit Tenant to rescind or terminate this Lease. Tenant’s taking possession of the Demised Premises shall be conclusive evidence that the Demised Premises were then in good and satisfactory condition and that Landlord, up to the time of such possession, has performed all of its obligations hereunder. The provisions of this Article are intended to constitute “an express provision to the contrary” within the meaning of Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law or any successor law or ordinance.

***Paragraphs (b) and (c) OPTIONAL***

(b) If the Commencement Date shall fail to occur on or before the date that is ( ) months next following the date hereof, as extended by reason of Force Majeure (such date, the “Outside Delivery Date”), Tenant shall have the right within thirty (30) days after the Outside Delivery Date, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor, to terminate this Lease by giving notice of termination to Landlord. If Tenant timely delivers the aforesaid termination notice, this Lease shall terminate thirty (30) days after the date of such notice, unless the Commencement Date shall occur within thirty (30) days after Tenant gives such termination notice, in which case Tenant’s termination notice shall be void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Failure by Tenant to exercise such right

to terminate this Lease within such thirty (30) day period shall constitute a waiver of such right; time being of the essence with respect thereto. In the event that Tenant so elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord agrees promptly return to Tenant any Security and any prepaid items of Rent.

(c) If the Commencement Date shall fail to occur on or before the Outside Delivery Date, Landlord shall also have the right, within thirty (30) days after the Outside Delivery Date, to terminate this Lease by giving notice of termination to Tenant. If Landlord timely delivers the aforesaid termination notice, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice. In the event that Landlord so elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord agrees promptly return to Tenant any Security and any prepaid items of Rent

Landlord shall review such plans and specifications and advise Tenant of any changes required by Landlord. Tenant shall promptly revise such plans and specifications to incorporate Landlord’s required changes and redeliver revised plans to Landlord within ten (10) days after being advised of Landlord’s changes. Landlord may require further changes in such plans and Tenant shall similarly revise and resubmit the same to Landlord within an additional period of ten (10) days. Tenant shall commence such renovations within ten (10) days after Landlord has reviewed Tenant’s plans and specifications and has turned over possession of the Demised Premises. All such work shall be promptly commenced and thereafter continued with due diligence to the end that it shall be fully completed and the Demised Premises opened for business in accordance with the provisions hereof not later than the Rent Commencement Date. Tenant shall perform no work in the Demised Premises until such plans and specifications have been reviewed in writing by Landlord. Together with the submission of plans and specifications (i) for the remodeling required by this Lease and (ii) relating to any other work in the Demised Premises which Tenant desires or is required to perform, and for any subsequent review of plans by Landlord during the Term, Tenant shall pay Landlord or Landlord’s management agent, as directed, the “Plan Review Charge” in an amount equal to FIVE HUNDRED and 00/100 ($500.00) DOLLARS to defray the cost of reviewing Tenant’s plans and specifications.

The General Contractor must have experience in managing build-outs in the Shopping Center or any other shopping center.

(ii) Any review of or consent to any or all of Tenant’s criteria, systems, plans, specifications, drawings or Tenant’s Work shall not constitute an approval of architectural or engineering design, compliance with any building codes or other restrictions and limitations, or otherwise constitute any assumption of liability or responsibility by Landlord or its agents or contractors for the quality or adequacy of any design of, or work performed by Tenant’s contractors or subcontractors, whether with respect to labor, material or otherwise. Tenant hereby expressly acknowledges that no such inspection,

approval or review shall in any way limit the obligations of Tenant or the rights of Landlord under the Lease, and, without limitation on the foregoing, Tenant’s obligations under the indemnity provisions of the Lease shall apply to any Claims (as hereinafter defined) arising or alleged to have arisen in connection with Tenant’s Work.

(iii) Promptly after Tenant’s plans and specifications have been reviewed by Landlord, and no later than fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s plans and specifications have been reviewed by Landlord, Tenant shall apply for all approvals and permits legally required in connection with the performance of Tenant’s Work, which approvals and permits shall be in accordance with the applicable building code without variance. If necessary, Landlord shall join in the execution of the applications. At Tenant’s request, Landlord shall cooperate with the prosecution of the applications.

(v) At any time, and from time to time, during the performance of Tenant’s Work, Landlord, Managing Agent, Landlord’s architect and/or Landlord’s general contractor may enter upon the Demised Premises and inspect the work being performed by Tenant and take such steps as they may deem necessary or desirable to assure the proper performance by Tenant of Tenant’s Work and/or for the protection of the Shopping Center and/or any premises adjacent to the Demised Premises. In addition, Tenant’s Work shall be performed in a thoroughly first-class and workmanlike manner, shall incorporate only new materials which are free from asbestos or other Hazardous Substances (as hereinafter defined) and shall be in good and usable condition at the date of completion.

(vi) Tenant’s Work shall be coordinated with all work being performed or to be performed by Landlord and other occupants of the Shopping Center to the end that Tenant’s Work will not interfere with the operation of the Shopping Center or interfere with or delay the completion of any other construction within the Shopping Center, and each such contractor and subcontractor shall comply with all procedures and regulations prescribed by Landlord for integration of Tenant’s Work with that to be performed in connection with any construction in the Shopping Center and with the operation of the Shopping Center. If the Demised Premises has a back door or other entrance apart from the central public areas of the Shopping Center, all contractors performing Tenant’s Work shall use such entrance.

(vii) Neither Tenant nor its contractors or subcontractors may use any space within the Shopping Center (except the Demised Premises) for storage and handling of materials and equipment, and if Tenant or such contractors and/or subcontractors shall use any space in the Shopping Center (except the Demised Premises) for any of the aforesaid purposes without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent thereto, Landlord shall have the right to terminate such use or remove all of Tenant’s, and such contractor’s or subcontractor’s, material, equipment and other property from such space without Landlord being liable to Tenant and/or such contractors or subcontractors, and the cost of such termination and/or removal shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord promptly upon demand therefor. It shall be Tenant’s responsibility to cause each contractor and subcontractor to maintain continuous protection of adjacent property and improvements against damage by reason of Tenant’s Work, including the installation of lights, guard rails, barricades and temporary storefronts of design reviewed by Landlord, or, at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, on demand, for the cost incurred in Landlord’s installation of such items. No materials delivered to the Demised Premises for Tenant’s Work shall be delivered through the public areas of the Shopping Center during the normal operating hours of the Shopping Center.

(viii) Landlord shall supply to Tenant and may also supply directly to Tenant’s contractor, a copy of the rules, regulations and requirements of the Shopping Center pertaining to Tenant’s Work. Tenant agrees to make its best effort to secure its contractor’s acknowledgment of receipt of such rules, regulations and requirements and to ensure the contractor’s compliance therewith.

(ix) In the event the fire protection (sprinkler) system in place in the Shopping Center has to be or is shut down, whether intentionally or inadvertently, by Tenant or its contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees, during construction of Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, a shut down fee of: Three Hundred and 00/100 ($300.00) Dollars for each such event. On the first (1 ^st ) day of the second full Lease Year and on the first (1 ^st ) day of each Lease Year thereafter the shut down fee shall be increased by multiplying (i) the shut down fee for the then previous Lease Year, by (ii) the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the first (1 ^st ) day of such Lease Year above the Consumer Price Index for the first (1 ^st ) day of the immediately prior Lease Year. The term "Consumer Price

Index" shall mean the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers based upon the New York-Northern New Jersey area for All Group Commodities and Items, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, or a successor substitute index; if in any year the 1982-84 average of one hundred (100) is no longer used as the basis of calculation, then, for the purposes of this Article, the Consumer Price Index for such year shall be recalculated as though such 1982-84 average of one hundred (100) were still the basis of calculation of the Consumer Price Index for such year; in the event such Consumer Price Index (or a successor substitute index) is not available, a reliable government or other non-partisan publication evaluating the information theretofore used in determining the Consumer Price Index shall be used to reflect the increase in the national cost of living. If the monthly Consumer Price Index for the first (1 ^st ) day of any Lease Year is not then available, the monthly Consumer Price Index as issued and published for the earliest preceding month which is available (the “Published Index”) shall be used, and for purposes of determining the annual percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, the index for the month which is one year prior to the Published Index shall also be used.

(d) Tenant shall perform, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all of Tenant’s Work in accordance with the final plans and specifications reviewed by Landlord, all legal requirements, all Insurance Requirements, in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with Landlord’s Design Criteria. Tenant shall employ only such labor as will not result in jurisdictional disputes with any labor unions or strikes against or involving Landlord or the Shopping Center and which shall not cause any conflict with any union contract to which Landlord or its contractors or subcontractors may be a party.

(e) If any governmental authority requires a license or permit, including a certificate of occupancy be issued with respect to the Demised Premises (as distinguished from a certificate of occupancy which is required for the Shopping Center generally), Tenant shall apply for, and obtain, at its sole cost and expense, such license and permit and promptly, on receipt, deliver a copy of same to Landlord.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.03 to the contrary, Tenant shall not have the right to remove the barricades installed in, or around the Demised Premises or to open to the public until such time as: (i) Landlord (or Landlord’s Agent or on-site personnel) and Tenant or Tenant’s contractor have completed a walk-through inspection of the Demised Premises in order to complete Landlord’s standard form “punch list” items verifying that all construction has been done in strict accordance with Tenant’s final reviewed plans and specifications; (ii) Landlord has verified to Tenant, in writing, that all “punch list” items have been completed to Landlord’s satisfaction and in accordance with the final reviewed plans and specifications and the terms and provisions of this Lease; and (iii) Tenant has paid Landlord in full all sums owed for Tenant’s Work. Removal of the barricades by Tenant prior to Tenant complying with all of the above items shall be deemed a Default as defined in Article XVI and Landlord, at Landlord’s sole option, may exercise any and all of its rights and remedies provided Landlord under this Lease. It shall be Tenant’s sole responsibility to contact Landlord in order to schedule such walk-through inspections in order to complete the above requirements.

(g) Within ten (10) days after initially opening the Demised Premises for business with the public, Tenant shall supply to Landlord the following:

(h) In the event Tenant fails to complete the refurbishment required pursuant to Section 3.03(a) on or before the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to 1/60th of the current monthly Minimum Rent for each day of delay, in addition to all other amounts then due and payable under this Lease.

(i) Tenant shall, at its sole expense, maintain the Demised Premises in first class conditions to the extent necessary so that: (i) the furnishings, furniture, flooring, walls, fixtures, equipment and other finishings in the interior of the Demised Premises shall be substantially in the same condition and appearance as of the date of completion of Tenant’s Work; and (ii) the exterior of the Demised Premises (including the storefront) shall be neat, presentable and attractive and shall conform to the decor of the Shopping Center.

Tenant shall pay Minimum Rent to Landlord commencing on the Rent Commencement Date. Minimum Rent shall be payable at the rates set forth in Article I. Minimum Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments in advance. The first monthly installment shall be due on the date hereof. Each subsequent installment shall be due on the first (1 ^st ) day of each month during the Term. If the Rent Commencement Date is a day other than the first (1 ^st ) day of the month, the first installment shall be one-thirtieth (1/30th) of a normal monthly installment for each day during the period commencing with the Rent Commencement Date up to and including the last day of that month. If the Expiration Date occurs on a day other than the last day of any month, Minimum Rent for the last month during the Term shall be pro‑rated in the same manner.

Section 5.02. Percentage Rent:

(a) Tenant shall pay Percentage Rent to Landlord. Percentage Rent shall be payable in addition to all Minimum Rent, additional rent or other charges. Percentage Rent for each Lease Year shall be equal to the product of: (i) the Percentage Rent Rate; and (ii) the amount by which Gross Sales (as defined in Section 5.05 hereof) during such Lease Year exceeds the Sales Base for such Lease Year. The first Lease Year shall include Gross Sales as a result of pre-sales by Tenant prior to the Rent Commencement Date. Tenant shall submit to Landlord a monthly report not later than the fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar month of the Term, which shall set forth the amount of Gross Sales for the preceding calendar month. The report shall be certified as complete and correct by Tenant’s principal financial officer. Unless Landlord exercises its option as set forth herein below, Percentage Rent shall be payable by Tenant in installments commencing on the date which is fifteen (15) days after that calendar month of each Lease Year in which Gross Sales to date for such Lease Year exceeds the Sales Base. The first installment shall equal the product of the Percentage Rent Rate and the difference between Gross Sales to date for such Lease Year and the Sales Base for that Lease Year. Thereafter, for the balance of the Lease Year, each monthly installment of Percentage Rent shall be payable on the fifteenth (15th) day of each month and shall equal the product of the Percentage Rent Rate and Gross Sales for the preceding month as shown on Tenant’s monthly report. Landlord may, at its option, on notice to Tenant at any time after the first Lease Year, require Tenant to pay Percentage Rent in installments based upon the Percentage Rent for the previous Lease Year, together with each monthly installment of Minimum Rent due hereunder commencing with the first such payment due immediately after the receipt by Tenant of such notice. Each monthly installment of Percentage Rent shall be an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of eighty (80%) percent of the Percentage Rent payable for the immediately preceding Lease Year. Thereafter, Tenant shall continue to pay such estimated payments of Percentage Rent together with each monthly installment of Minimum Rent due for each calendar month in the Term. The amount of such estimated monthly payments of Percentage Rent may, at Landlord’s option, be adjusted at the expiration of each subsequent Lease Year after receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s statement referred to in Section 5.06 hereof, to an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of eighty (80%) percent of the Percentage Rent payable for the Lease Year immediately preceding such adjustment, such adjusted payment commencing with the payment of Minimum Rent due immediately after receipt by Tenant of notice of such adjustment and continuing until the next adjustment. Although estimated Percentage Rent shall be payable monthly as aforesaid, the final computation and payment shall be on an annual basis as set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

(b) If Tenant fails to conduct business for the hours set forth in Section 9.02 hereof on at least three hundred sixty-two (362) of the days in a Lease Year, the Sales Base for that Lease Year shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product of (i) the Sales Base for the applicable period, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days during such Lease Year in which Tenant conducted business for the hours set forth in Section 9.02 hereof, and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in such Lease Year.

(c) If Tenant ceases to conduct business at the Demised Premises, Gross Sales for any Lease Year that ends before Tenant resumes the conduct of business at the Demised Premises shall

be the greater of: (i) the average of all Gross Sales for all previous Lease Years in which Tenant conducted business at the Demised Premises for at least three hundred sixty-two (362) days; or (ii) the average of all Gross Sales for the three (3) Lease Years immediately preceding the date that Tenant ceases to conduct business in the Demised Premises. If Tenant fails to open for business in accordance with the terms of this Lease, then the Sales Base for the first Lease Year shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product of (i) the Sales Base for the first Lease Year, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days during the first Lease Year in which Tenant conducted business and the denominator of which is the number of days in the first Lease Year. Except as provided herein to the contrary, there shall be no abatement, apportionment or suspension of Percentage Rent payable hereunder. If pursuant to any other section of this Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement, apportionment or suspension of Minimum Rent, Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord Percentage Rent during the period in which the Minimum Rent shall have been abated, apportioned or suspended, provided that in such event the Sales Base shall be reduced in direct proportion to the abatement, apportionment or suspension of Minimum Rent.

(d) Percentage Rent shall be computed separately with respect to each Lease Year. There shall be no carry-backs or carry-forwards with respect to any Lease Year.

(e) If, in each of at least two (2) of the first three (3) twelve month Lease Years in the Term, or in any two (2) out of three (3) consecutive Lease Years thereafter, Tenant shall not have been obligated to pay Percentage Rent in an amount equal to at least twenty-five (25%) percent of the Minimum Rent payable pursuant to this Article V, then Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant given within six (6) months after the receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s annual statement of Gross Sales for such third Lease Year and this Lease shall terminate ninety (90) days after delivery of such notice. Tenant may render such notice of termination inoperative if Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, agree in writing to increase the Minimum Rent payable for the Lease Year during which Tenant receives Landlord’s termination notice and each subsequent Lease Year thereafter by an amount equal to twenty-five (25%) percent of the Minimum Rent payable for each such Lease Year.

Section 5.03. Tax Contributions:

(a) In addition to all other charges Tenant is required to pay hereunder, Tenant shall pay Tax Contributions (as hereinafter defined) to Landlord.

(b) The following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i) “ Tax Contributions” means Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Impositions.

(ii) “ Impositions” means all taxes, assessments (special or otherwise, foreseen or unforeseen) and all other governmental charges assessed, levied or imposed against the Demised Premises and the Shopping Center on either or both land and improvements during any calendar year occurring wholly or partially within the Term. If any governmental authority imposes, assesses or levies tax on rent or any other tax upon Landlord as a substitute in whole or in part for real estate taxes or assessments, the substitute tax shall be deemed to be an Imposition. Impositions shall include the aggregate of all reasonable fees (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and appraisers’ fees, all actual disbursements, court costs and other similar items) paid or incurred by Landlord during the applicable calendar year with respect to any proceedings challenging the tax rate, assessed valuation or other factors influencing the amount of taxes, whether or not such action results in a reduction in the amount of taxes.

(c) If any calendar year does not fall entirely within the Term, then Tenant’s Tax Contributions with respect to any such calendar year shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) Tenant’s Tax Contributions for the entire calendar year; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days during such calendar year in which Tenant is obligated to pay Tenant’s Tax Contributions and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the entire calendar year.

(d) Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Tax Contributions to Landlord as follows:

(i) Tenant shall pay monthly installments on account of Tax Contributions to Landlord. Installments shall be paid in the same manner and at the same time as Minimum Rent. Until the actual amount of Tax Contributions payable with respect to each calendar year is actually determined, estimated monthly installments with respect to such calendar year shall be determined by Landlord in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. Each monthly installment shall be in an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Tenant’s Tax Contributions as estimated for the current calendar year .

(ii) If the estimated installments paid with respect to any calendar year shall exceed actual Tax Contributions for such calendar year, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either refund the difference to Tenant promptly or credit Tenant for such amount against Rent or additional rent next coming due, provided, Tenant is not in default under this Lease. If the estimated installments paid with respect to any calendar year shall be less than actual Tax Contributions for that calendar year, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the difference within thirty (30) days after Landlord renders a bill with respect thereto. Each bill shall be conclusively binding on Tenant, its successors and assigns, as to the matters set

forth therein, if no objection is raised with respect thereto within thirty (30) days after submission of each such bill to Tenant. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord's ability to budget and incur expenses depends on the finality of such bill, and accordingly agrees that time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s objection to the aforementioned bill.

(e) If any building in the Shopping Center is assessed as part of a separate tax lot from the tax lot of which the Building is a part, at Landlord’s election, for the purpose of calculating Tenant’s Tax Contributions, the Floor Area of such other building and the Impositions attributable to the assessed valuation of such other building which is separately assessed shall be excluded from the denominator of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share and total Impositions.

(f) If any land or building shall be added to the Shopping Center from time to time, Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Impositions payable on such additional land from the time that the Impositions are first assessed and payable, and on any additional buildings from the time they are first assessed as completed structures and the Floor Area of such other building shall be included in the denominator of the Pro Rata Share calculation.

(g) In addition to Tax Contributions any other taxes required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to the appropriate governmental agency whether or not imposed upon Landlord or Tenant (or to Landlord as Rent if Landlord is responsible for the collection and payment of such monies), prior to the time such obligation shall become delinquent or payable with a penalty: (i) all sales, excise, business privilege, use and occupancy, and any other tax levied, imposed or assessed by the state, in which the Demised Premises is located, or by any political subdivision, or other taxing authority having appropriate jurisdiction, upon any Rent payable by Tenant; (ii) all taxes and assessments that are levied based on the use of water or energy by Landlord and/or the Shopping Center; (iii) all taxes and assessments upon or against the conduct of Tenant’s business at the Demised Premises including but not limited to, business and occupation taxes and occupational license taxes; (iv) all taxes imposed upon Tenant’s inventory, signs, furniture, fixtures, apparatus, equipment, alterations, betterments, and improvements (regardless of whether installed by Tenant or by Landlord on behalf of Tenant), and any other personal property of Tenant; and (v) all fees, charges and assessments imposed by any governmental agency for sewerage or water utility hook up charges (the foregoing (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) shall be individually and collectively known as “Special Taxes”).

(h) If Landlord shall receive a refund of Impositions as to which Tenant has paid its Pro Rata Share, Tenant shall receive its Pro Rata Share thereof after deducting the costs, fees and expenses, incurred by Landlord in connection with obtaining such refund.

Section 5.04. Lease Years:

Means a period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months, the first Lease Year to commence on the first day of January following the Rent Commencement Date (or on January 1 if the Rent Commencement Date shall be January 1) and each succeeding Lease Year to commence on the anniversary date of the first Lease Year. Any portion of the Term which is less than a Lease Year as hereinbefore defined [that is, from the Rent Commencement Date (if other than January 1) through the following December 31; and from the last January 1 falling within the Term to the end of the Term (if the end of the Term does not fall on December 31) shall be deemed a “Partial Lease Year”. Any reference in this Lease to a “Lease Year” shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, be deemed to be a reference to a “Partial Lease Year” if the period in question involves a Partial Lease Year. If any Lease Year consists of less than Three Hundred Sixty-Five (365) days, the Sales Base for such Lease Year shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of: (a) the applicable Sales Base; and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the positive difference between three hundred sixty-five (365) and the number of days in such Lease Year, and the denominator of which shall be three hundred sixty-five (365).

Section 5.05. Definition of Gross Sales:

(i) “ Gross Sales” means the dollar aggregate of: (1) the entire amount of the price charged for all goods, wares and merchandise sold, leased, licensed or delivered and all charges for all services sold or performed by Tenant at, upon or from the Demised Premises, whether made for cash, by check, on credit, by charge account or otherwise, without reserve or deduction for inability or failure to collect the same, including, but not limited to, the following transactions: (A) where the orders originated at or are accepted by Tenant in the Demised Premises, but delivery or performance thereof is made from or at any other place; all sales made and orders received in or at the Demised Premises shall be deemed as made and completed therein, even though the payment of account may be transferred to another office for collection, and all orders which result from solicitation off the Demised Premises but which are conducted by personnel operating from or reporting to or under the control or supervision of any employee of Tenant at the Demised Premises shall be deemed part of Gross Sales; (B) pursuant to mail, telephone, video, electronic, internet or other technology based system whether now existing or hereinafter developed received or billed at or from the Demised Premises; (C) by means of mechanical or other vending devices (unless in non-sales areas and for the exclusive use of Tenant’s employees); and (D) originating from whatever source and which Tenant in the normal and customary course of Tenant’s operations would credit

or attribute to Tenant’s business conducted in the Demised Premises; and (2) all monies or other things of value received by Tenant from Tenant’s operations at, upon or from the Demised Premises which are neither included in nor excluded from Gross Sales by other provisions of this definition, but without any duplication, including, without limitation, finance charges, cost of gift or merchandise certificates and all deposits not refunded to customers.

(ii) Each charge or sale upon installment or credit shall be treated as a sale for the full price in the month during which such charge or sale is made, irrespective of the time when Tenant shall receive payment (whether full or partial) therefor. No deduction shall be allowed for uncollectible credit accounts. Each lease or rental of merchandise shall be treated as a sale in the month during which such lease or rental is made, for a price equal to the total rent payable.

(iii) For the purpose of ascertaining the amount of Gross Sales upon which the payment of Percentage Rent is to be computed hereunder, there shall not be included, or if included there shall be deducted, the following: (1) the exchange of merchandise between stores of Tenant where such exchanges are made solely for the convenient operation of Tenant’s business and not for the purpose of consummating a sale which has been made at, upon or from the Demised Premises; (2) returns to shippers or manufacturers; (3) sales of fixtures which are not part of Tenant’s stock in trade and which are not sold in the regular course of Tenant’s business; (4) cash or credit refunds made upon transactions included within Gross Sales but not exceeding the selling price of the merchandise returned by the purchaser and accepted by Tenant; and (5) the amount of any city, county, state or federal sales, luxury or excise tax on such sales provided such tax is both added to the selling price and paid to the taxing authority by Tenant (but not by any vendor of Tenant); provided, however, no franchise or capital stock tax and no income or similar tax based upon income, profits or Gross Sales as such shall be deducted from Gross Sales.

(iv) For the purposes of this Section, the term “Tenant” shall include any licensee, concessionaire or subtenant of Tenant, but Gross Sales shall not include any amount which is based upon the net income or profit of any occupant.

Section 5.06. Sales Reports:

Within thirty (30) days after the expiration of each Lease Year, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a statement, certified as complete and correct by a certified public accountant, showing the amount of Gross Sales for the immediately preceding Lease Year and an itemization of all claimed exclusions therefrom. Tenant shall require any licensees, concessionaires and subtenants to furnish similar statements and Tenant shall include the statements of any licensees, concessionaires and subtenants along with its annual statement to Landlord.

Section 5.07. Records and Books:

Tenant shall keep and maintain (and shall cause any licensee, concessionaire and subtenant to keep and maintain) in the Demised Premises, full and accurate books of account and records from which Gross Sales can be determined and which shall be conveniently segregated from other business matters. Such records shall be so kept and maintained (properly totaled and added) for at least thirty‑six (36) months after the end of the period in question. The books and records shall include all federal, state and local tax returns, records of daily bank deposits of the entire receipts from transactions in, at, on or from the Demised Premises, sales slips, daily dated cash register tapes, sales books, duplicate bank deposit slips and bank statements. Tenant shall deposit all cash receipts in cash registers approved by Landlord. The cash registers shall be non-resettable.

Section 5.08. Inspection and Audit:

(a) Landlord or Landlord’s authorized agents shall have the right, during regular business hours, to inspect and audit all such books and records and all other papers and files of Tenant and any licensee, concessionaire or subtenant relating to Gross Sales. Tenant and each licensee, concessionaire or subtenant shall produce the appropriate books and records on request of Landlord. The acceptance by Landlord of payments of Percentage Rent shall be without prejudice to Landlord’s right to conduct an audit of Tenant’s and Tenant’s subtenant’s, concessionaire’s, and licensee’s books and records. Landlord and Landlord’s agents shall have the right, in connection with an audit, to inspect the books and records from any other store operated by Tenant, its parent, subsidiaries or affiliates and to inspect the books and records from any other source which relates to orders accepted by means of mail, telephone, video, electronic or other similar means.

(b) If any such audit shows that the amount of Gross Sales on any such statement was understated by (i) more than one (1%) percent of Gross Sales for such Lease Year, or (ii) an amount sufficient to reduce Percentage Rent by ONE THOUSAND and 00/100 ($1,000.00) DOLLARS for any Lease Year (but pro‑rated for any Lease Year shorter than twelve (12) months), then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the reasonable cost of its audit and investigation, which cost, if the audit was not conducted by an independent accountant, shall be determined on a “time-and-expense” basis and the rate per hour shall not exceed that charged for similar personnel by a national firm of independent certified public accountants. If

any audit shows that the amount of Gross Sales was understated by any amount, so that Landlord shall have been paid less Percentage Rent than that to which it would have been entitled had Tenant not understated its Gross Sales, then Tenant shall be in Default under this Lease and in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord as a result of such Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of Percentage Rent Tenant should have paid but did not pay to Landlord, plus interest thereon at the rate of fifteen (15%) percent per annum or, if less, the highest rate permitted by law (“Lease Interest Rate”) for the period from the original due date thereof until the date that payment was made, compounding on a six (6) month basis. If, at any time within thirty‑six (36) months after the end of a particular Lease Year, Landlord shall contend that an error may exist with respect to any of Tenant’s books, records, papers or files, then the period referred to in this Section 5.09 shall be extended until Landlord’s contention has been finally determined. If the Gross Sales vary from those reported by five (5%) percent or more in any one (1) Lease Year, or three (3%) percent or more in any two (2) Lease Years out of five (5), then Landlord shall have the right upon notice to Tenant to increase the Minimum Rent by an amount equal to ten (10%) percent of the Minimum Rent per annum for the balance of the Term.

Section 5.09. Payment of Rent:

(a) “Rent” means Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent, Tenant’s Contribution (as hereinafter defined), Tax Contributions, Special Taxes and all other amounts and charges required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder and described as additional rent or rent under this Lease.

(b) Rent shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, offset, deduction, defense, or abatement.

(c) All Rent payable under this Lease shall be payable at Landlord’s address as set forth in Section 19.05(a) hereof or at such other address as Landlord shall designate by giving notice to Tenant.

(d) If Tenant shall fail to pay any Percentage Rent, Tax Contributions, Tenant’s Contributions, Special Taxes or any other charges payable hereunder, whether or not the same are called Rent or additional rent hereunder, Landlord shall have all remedies provided for in this Lease or at law for non-payment of Minimum Rent. Tenant’s obligations (accruing during the Term) under Article V and Section 11.04 hereof, shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

Section 5.10. Security:

(a) Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum designated as Security in Article I, as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all obligations of Tenant under this Lease or in connection with this Lease. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 with the Security. If a Default by Tenant occurs, Landlord may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the Security for the payment of: (i) any Rent or any other sums of money which Tenant may not have paid or which may become due after the occurrence of a Default; or (ii) any sum expended by Landlord on Tenant’s behalf in accordance with the provisions of this Lease; or (iii) any sum which Landlord may expend or be required to expend by reason of such Default, including any damages or deficiency in the re-letting of the Demised Premises in connection with Article XVI. The use, application or retention of the Security or any portion thereof by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or at law and shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. In the case of every such application or retention, Tenant shall on demand pay to Landlord the sum so applied or retained which shall be added to the Security so that the same shall be restored to its original amount.

(b) No interest shall accrue on the Security for the benefit of Tenant, and if legally permissible, Landlord shall be entitled to commingle the Security with Landlord’s other funds.

(c) If Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the provisions of this Lease, the Security or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant after the Expiration Date or upon any later date after which Tenant has vacated the Demised Premises. On termination of this Lease, Landlord may return the Security to the then current Tenant from whom Landlord receives the payment of Minimum Rent for the last payment period of the Term and in such event, upon the return of the Security, or the balance thereof, to the then current Tenant, Landlord shall be completely relieved of liability hereunder.

(d) The Security shall not be mortgaged, assigned, transferred or encumbered by Tenant without the prior consent of Landlord in each instance, and any such act on the part of Tenant shall be without force and effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord.

(e) In the event any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other creditor-debtor proceedings shall be instituted by or against Tenant or Guarantor, if any, the Security shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of any Rent or other charges due Landlord for all periods prior to the institution of such proceedings and the balance, if any, of the Security may be retained by Landlord in partial liquidation of Landlord’s damages.

(f) Landlord may deliver the Security to the purchaser of Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises in the event that such interest be sold or transferred, and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged and released from all further liability with respect to the Security or the return thereof to Tenant. Tenant agrees to look solely to the new landlord for the return of the Security, and this provision shall also apply to any subsequent transferees. No Mortgagee shall be responsible for the return of the Security unless such Mortgagee shall have actually received the Security.

(g) This Section 5.10 shall in any event be subject to the provisions of Section 7-103 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York, as amended; and, to the extent that this Section 5.10 may be inconsistent therewith, the said Section 7-103 of the General Obligations Law shall supersede.

ARTICLE VI. CONDITION OF PREMISES AND SIGNS.

If Tenant shall fail to discharge or bond the lien, Landlord may bond or pay the lien or claim for the account of Tenant without inquiring into the validity of the lien or claim and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand, as additional rent, the amount so paid by Landlord to remove or discharge the lien or claim together with interest thereon at the Lease Interest Rate for the period from Landlord’s payment of such sum until the date that Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant. Tenant’s failure to discharge or bond the lien within the aforesaid thirty (30) day period or to reimburse Landlord for any amounts due hereunder shall constitute a Default hereunder, notwithstanding Landlord’s election to cure.

Section 6.03. Signage:

(a) Tenant shall affix a sign to the exterior surface of the storefront of the Demised Premises fronting on the Common Area, as shown on Exhibit B as “Tenant Sign Area”, and shall maintain said sign in good condition and repair during the Term.

If Tenant places, erects or maintains any Prohibited Signage without Landlord’s consent, the same may be removed by Landlord or Landlord’s agents, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, without notice and without such removal constituting a breach of this Lease or entitling Tenant to claim damages on account thereof. No illuminated sign located in the interior of the Demised Premises and which is visible from the outside thereof shall be permitted without the prior approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld as long as such illuminated sign complies with applicable legal requirements and Landlord’s Design Criteria. Neon signs are prohibited in all instances.

Section 6.04. Insurance Covering Tenant’s Work:

ARTICLE VII. REPAIRS, ALTERATIONS, COMPLIANCE, SURRENDER.

Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of any repair or alteration required or permitted to be performed by Tenant under any provision of this Lease if the reasonable cost of the repair or alteration is estimated to exceed ONE THOUSAND and 00/100 ($1,000.00) DOLLARS, either individually or in a series of related repairs or alterations. Except in the event of an emergency, if within ten (10) days after Tenant’s notice is given, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant that Landlord desires to review detailed specifications and working drawings with respect to the proposed repair or alteration, then Tenant shall not commence the repair or alteration until Tenant has submitted detailed specifications and working drawings of the proposed repair or alteration and Landlord has reviewed them. In no event shall Landlord’s review of Tenant’s plans and specifications be deemed an approval by Landlord as to the sufficiency or compliance with law (it being agreed that such compliance is solely Tenant’s responsibility). All permitted work shall be commenced promptly after Tenant has obtained all necessary permits and approvals and performed by Tenant in a manner so as to not disrupt other tenants of the Shopping Center. Tenant shall perform all work in a good and first class workmanlike manner and in accordance with the reviewed detailed specifications and working drawings and prosecute the work diligently to completion. Any work performed by Tenant, irrespective of cost, shall be subject to Landlord’s inspection and review after completion to determine whether the work complies with the requirements of this Lease. Promptly after the completion of any repairs or alterations, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a set of “as‑built” plans and specifications therefor.

Section 7.04. Compliance:

ARTICLE IX. USE AND OPERATION.

Section 9.01. Use:

Tenant shall use the Demised Premises only for the Permitted Use, and for no other purpose.

Section 9.02. Continuous Operation:

Tenant agrees that it shall open for business no later than the Rent Commencement Date and remain open during the entire Term during all business hours on all business days when the Shopping Center is open for business to the public as determined by Landlord, and to light its display windows and signs during those hours and on those days when the Shopping Center is kept illuminated by Landlord (but Tenant shall not be obligated to keep the same illuminated beyond 11:00 p.m. on any day). Tenant shall keep the Demised Premises fully staffed with employees and fully stocked with first-class window and floor displays, shall use its best efforts to achieve a maximum sales volume at the Demised Premises, and shall conduct its business under the name set forth as Tenant’s Tradename. Throughout the Term, the decor and fixturing of the Demised Premises, Tenant’s merchandise and the operation of Tenant’s business conducted in the Demised Premises shall be consistent with the operation of a “first-class”, “high-quality”, “fashionable” store or business as those standards of operation may be interpreted from time to time during the Term (as opposed to a “general”, “promotional” or “self-service” store or business). Tenant shall operate its business at the Demised Premises in a respectable, reputable, tasteful, competent and dignified manner in order to enhance the image of the Shopping Center as a whole and its reputation as a dignified and desirable place to shop and to achieve the maximum volume of sales so that Landlord will receive the maximum amount of Percentage Rent. The description of the standards of operation of the business conducted in the Demised Premises as “first-class”, “high-quality” and “fashionable” (as opposed to “general” or “promotional”), is intended only as a description of the general quality of the merchandise or services Tenant may sell or provide and the general quality of customer service, merchandising, fixturing and decor Tenant must maintain in the operation of the Demised Premises. The foregoing description is not intended by Landlord, and will not be enforced, to affect the retail selling price of Tenant’s merchandise or services. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall not at any time, abandon, leave vacant or desert the Demised Premises or any part thereof.

Because of the difficulty or impossibility of determining Landlord’s damages by way of loss of anticipated Percentage Rent from Tenant or other tenants or occupants of the Shopping Center, or by way of loss of value in the Shopping Center, because of diminished salability or mortgageability or adverse publicity or appearance by Tenant’s action, should Tenant: (a) fail to take possession and open for business in the Demised Premises fully fixtured, stocked and staffed on or before the Rent Commencement Date, except to the extent prevented from so doing by strikes, fire, casualty or other unforeseeable causes beyond Tenant’s reasonable control other than lack of funds; or (b) abandon, leave vacant or desert the Demised Premises or any part thereof; or (c) cease operating or conducting Tenant’s business therein in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.02 (except for a period not to exceed ten (10) days for Tenant’s Work, as reviewed by Landlord in accordance with this Lease, or where the Demised Premises are rendered untenantable by reason of fire, casualty, or permitted repairs or alterations); or (d) fail or refuse to maintain business hours on such days or nights or any part thereof as provided in this Section 9.02, then and in any of such events (hereinafter collectively referred to as “failure to do business”), Landlord shall have the right, in addition to any and all other rights or remedies Landlord may have under this Lease and at law or in equity, at Landlord’s option: (i) to collect not only Minimum Rent and all items of additional rent herein reserved, but also additional rent equal to twenty-five (25%) percent of the Minimum Rent reserved for the period of Tenant’s failure to do business, computed at a daily rate for each and every day or part thereof during such period, and such additional rent shall be deemed to be liquidated damages in lieu of any Percentage Rent that might have been earned by Landlord during such period; and/or (ii) to treat such failure to do business as a Default under Article XVI. As used herein, the terms “abandon”, “leave vacant” or “desert” shall not be defeated because Tenant may have left all or any part of its trade fixtures or other personal property in the Demised Premises.

Section 9.03. Landlord's Additional Right of Recapture:

If addition to Landlord’s remedy to declare a Default if Tenant fails to continuously operate for business in the Demised Premises in accordance with Section 9.02, if at any time during the Term, all or substantially all of the Demised Premises is not open to the public for business for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days for reasons other than remodeling, damage and destruction or eminent domain,

Landlord shall have the right to recapture the Demised Premises in accordance with the provisions of the immediately succeeding paragraph.

At any time after the event set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph has occurred, Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to give to Tenant, a notice (hereinafter "Notice of Recapture").

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the giving of the Notice of Recapture the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph do not exist and if the Demised Premises is being used in accordance with this Lease and is opened to the public fully staffed, fully fixtured and merchandised in accordance with sound business judgment, then Landlord's Notice of Recapture shall be automatically revoked.

The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any corporation if, and so long as, all the outstanding voting stock of such corporation is listed on a National Securities Exchange, as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For the purposes of this Section 10.01, stock ownership shall be determined in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 544 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the term “voting stock” shall refer to the shares of stock regularly entitled to vote for the election of directors of the corporation.

Section 10.02. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 10.03. Subordination:

This Lease shall be subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage or Master Lease irrespective of the time of recording of such Mortgage or Master Lease. However, from time to time, Landlord may elect that this Lease be superior to the lien of such Mortgage, and may exercise such election by giving notice thereof to Tenant, which notice must be consented to by such Mortgagee. The exercise of any of the elections provided in this Section shall not exhaust Landlord’s right to elect differently thereafter, from time to time. This clause shall be self‑operative and no further instrument shall be required, provided, however, upon Landlord’s or such Mortgagee’s request, from time to time, Tenant shall: (a) confirm in writing and in recordable form that this Lease is so subordinate or so superior (as Landlord may elect) to the lien of any Mortgage or Master Lease and/or (b) execute an instrument making this Lease so subordinate or so superior (as Landlord may elect) to the lien of any Mortgage or Master Lease, in such form as may be required by an applicable Mortgagee or Master Lessor.

Section 10.04. Attornment:

(a) If the Demised Premises or the Shopping Center are encumbered by a Mortgage and such Mortgage is foreclosed, or if the Demised Premises or the Shopping Center are sold pursuant to such foreclosure or by reason of a default under said Mortgage, then notwithstanding such foreclosure, such sale, or such default: (i) Tenant shall not disaffirm this Lease or any of its obligations hereunder; and (ii) at the request of the Mortgagee or purchaser at such foreclosure or sale, Tenant shall attorn to such Mortgagee or purchaser and execute a new lease for the Demised Premises setting forth all of the provisions of this Lease, except that (w) the term of such new lease shall be for the balance of the Term; (x) any requirements with respect to Landlord’s Work, if any, shall not be binding on such Mortgagee or purchaser; (y) such Mortgagee or purchaser shall not be bound by any payment of Rent or additional rent for more than one (1) month in advance, except prepayments in the nature of security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease or estimated payments for Common Area Expenses or Impositions required pursuant to this Lease; and (z) such Mortgagee or purchaser shall not be bound by any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the consent of such Mortgagee or purchaser to the extent such consent is required.

(b) If Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises is a leasehold interest, at any time, and if Landlord’s leasehold interest is terminated for any reason, then notwithstanding such termination, the dispossession of Landlord from the Demised Premises or the Shopping Center, or any default by Landlord, as les see, under any Master Lease: (i) Tenant shall not disaffirm this Lease or any of its obligations contained within this Lease, and (ii) at the request of Master Lessor, Tenant shall attorn to Master Lessor and execute a new lease for the Demised Premises setting forth all of the provisions of this Lease, except that the term of such new lease shall be for the balance of the Term.

Section 10.05. Transfer of Landlord’s Interest:

(a) Fee Interest : If Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises is a fee interest, the term “Landlord” as used in this Lease means only the owner for the time being or the Mortgagee in possession for the time being of the Demised Premises. In the event of any sale of the Demised Premises, or in the event the Demised Premises are leased to any person (subject to this Lease), then Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all of its covenants, obligations and liability hereunder. This subsection shall be applicable to each owner of the Demised Premises, from time to time, and shall not be limited to the first owner of the Demised Premises.

(b) Master Lease : If Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises is a leasehold interest the term “Landlord” as used in this Lease means only the owner for the time being of the leasehold estate demised by the Master Lease. In the event of any transfer or assignment of Landlord’s interest in said Master Lease, then Landlord whose interest is thus assigned or transferred shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all covenants, obligations and liability of Landlord hereunder. In the event

the owner of the leasehold estate demised by the Master Lease shall acquire the fee interest in the premises demised by the Master Lease, subsection (a) of this Section 10.05 shall be applicable. This subsection (b) shall be applicable to each person who owns a leasehold estate demised by a Master Lease .

Section 10.06. Mortgagee’s Rights:

(a) If Landlord shall notify Tenant that the Demised Premises or the Shopping Center are encumbered by a Mortgage and in such notice set forth the name and address of the Mortgagee thereof, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no notice intended for Landlord shall be deemed properly given unless a copy thereof is simultaneously sent to such Mortgagee. If any Mortgagee shall perform any obligation that Landlord is required to perform hereunder, such performance by Mortgagee, insofar as Tenant is concerned, shall be deemed performance on behalf of Landlord and shall be accepted by Tenant as if performed by Landlord.

(b) In addition, if Tenant is given the right, pursuant to this Lease, to terminate this Lease as a result of a default of Landlord or to claim a partial or total eviction, no such termination shall be effective unless and until Tenant has sent a notice in addition to any notice sent pursuant to Section 10.06 hereof of its intention to so terminate this Lease to such Mortgagee and Mortgagee has failed to cure such default within a reasonable time following the time when such Mortgagee becomes entitled under such mortgage to remedy the same (which reasonable period shall in no event be less than the period to which Landlord is entitled under this Lease, after similar notice, to effect such remedy).

Section 10.07. Mortgagee Lease Amendments:

If Landlord’s proposed Mortgagee requires modifications of this Lease, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord the agreements required to effect such modifications, except Tenant shall not be required to modify any of the provisions of this Lease relating to the amount of Rent, the Permitted Use, the size and location of the Demised Premises or the duration of the Term nor any other provision of this Lease if such modification materially and adversely increases Tenant’s obligations hereunder or materially and adversely decreases Tenant’s rights hereunder.

Section 10.08. Lender Protections:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease or any mortgage, any party that becomes owner of the Demised Premises as a result of (i) foreclosure under any mortgage, (ii) any other exercise by any Mortgagee of rights and remedies (whether under any mortgage or under applicable law, including bankruptcy law) as holder of a mortgage, or (iii) delivery by Landlord to a Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) of a deed or other conveyance of Landlord's interest in the Demised Premises in lieu of any of the foregoing shall not be liable for or bound by any of the following matters (provided that nothing herein shall limit either (x) Tenant’s right to exercise against Landlord any Offset Right (as defined below) otherwise available to Tenant because of events occurring or continuing after the date of attornment or (y) Landlord’s obligation to correct any conditions that existed as of the date of attornment and which violate Landlord’s obligations as landlord under this Lease):

(i) any right of Tenant to any offset, defense, claim, counterclaim, reduction, deduction, or abatement against Tenant's payment of rent or performance of Tenant's other obligations under this Lease, arising (whether under this Lease or under applicable law) from Landlord's breach or default under this Lease ("Offset Right") that Tenant may have against Landlord or any other party that was landlord under this Lease at any time before the occurrence of any attornment by Tenant relating to any event or occurrence before the date of attornment, including any claim for damages of any kind whatsoever as the result of any breach by Landlord that occurred before the date of attornment;

(ii) any obligation with respect to any security deposited with Landlord, unless such security was actually delivered to Mortgagee;

(vi) any consensual or negotiated surrender, cancellation, or termination of the Lease, in whole or in part, agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant that was not effective as of the date of attornment, unless effected unilaterally by Tenant pursuant to the express terms of the Lease;

(vii) any payment of Rent that Tenant may have made to Landlord more than thirty (30) days before the date such rent was first due and payable under the Lease with respect to any period after the date of attornment other than, and only to the extent that, the Lease expressly required such a prepayment;

(viii) to pay Tenant any sum(s) that any Landlord owed to Tenant unless such sums, if any, shall have been actually delivered to Mortgagee by way of an assumption of escrow accounts or otherwise (subject to the proviso in the first paragraph of this Section 10.08); and

(ix) any act or omission of Landlord prior to such Lease termination or prior to such person’s succession to title (subject to the proviso in the first paragraph of this Section 10.08).

ARTICLE XI. COMMON AREA AND SHOPPING CENTER.

Section 11.01. Use of Common Area:

During the Term, Tenant is hereby granted the non-exclusive license and right to use the Common Area. The use and occupancy by Tenant of the Demised Premises shall include the use of the Common Area in common with Landlord and with all others for whose convenience and use the Common Area have been or may hereafter be provided by Landlord or by the owner of common areas not within the Shopping Center, subject, however, to rules and regulations for the use thereof as prescribed from time to time by Landlord or the owner of such Common Area, including the right of Landlord to determine the hours and mode of operation of the elevators, escalators and vertical transportation facilities serving the Shopping Center, and including the right of Landlord or such owner to impose parking charges, whether by meter or otherwise. In no event, however, shall Tenant or Tenant’s Agents use the Common Area for the display or sale of merchandise.

Section 11.02. Landlord’s Rights:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord shall have the following rights: (a) to close all or any portion of the Common Area to such extent as may in the opinion of Landlord’s counsel be necessary to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual of any rights of any Person or the public therein; (b) to close all or any portion of the Common Area temporarily to discourage non‑customer use; (c) to prohibit parking or passage of motor vehicles in areas previously designated for such; (d) to expand, change, decrease or alter the size, layout or configuration of the Shopping Center or any part thereof (including, without limitation, the Building, the Common Area, the parking areas, the buildings and the means of ingress and egress); (e) to erect additional buildings on the Common Area, or to change the location of buildings or other structures to any location in the Shopping Center, including the Common Area (and upon such erection or change of location the portion upon which such buildings or structures had been erected shall no longer be deemed to be a part of the Common Area); and (f) make any use it desires of the side and rear walls of the Demised Premises, provided that there shall be no encroachment upon the interior of the Demised Premises.

Section 11.03. License Numbers:

Tenant shall cause its employees to park only in the outer areas of the parking areas of the Common Area as provided and designated from time to time by Landlord for employee parking. Within ten (10) days after a request by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a list of Tenant’s and its employees’ automobiles, which list shall set forth the description of and the license numbers assigned to such automobiles and their State of issue. Thereafter, Tenant shall advise Landlord of any changes, additions or deletions in such list. If any automobile appearing on said list is parked in any area of the Shopping Center other than the area designated by Landlord at any time after Landlord has given notice to Tenant or Tenant’s store manager that the same automobile has previously been parked in violation of this provision, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, the sum of Twenty-Five and 00/100 ($25.00) Dollars per day for each such automobile for each day (or part thereof) it is parked in violation of this provision. Tenant shall pay such sum to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Landlord. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord in such event to remove from the Shopping Center any of Tenant’s automobiles, or automobiles belonging to Tenant’s employees and/or to attach violation stickers or notices to such automobiles. Tenant hereby waives and releases Landlord and hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord and Managing Agent harmless from all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses which may arise therefrom.

Section 11.04. Tenant’s Contribution:

(a) “ Common Area Expenses” : means all costs and expenses of every kind and nature paid or incurred by Landlord or its designees in connection with the following:

(i) the management of, operation, maintenance, repair (as defined in Section 2.14 hereof), redecorating, refurbishing, upgrading, improving, conforming with law, rules and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction and the Fire Insurance Rating Organization and Board of Fire

Underwriters, and all other costs and expenses of every kind and nature, foreseeable or unforeseeable, required or desired, suggested or recommended for the operation, maintenance or otherwise with respect to, the Common Area in a manner deemed by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion, to be appropriate for the best interests of the Shopping Center, as conclusively determined by Landlord in accordance with Landlord’s method of accounting, including the supply by Landlord of electricity and other utilities to the Common Area; including fees paid to utility billing service providers; utilities and facilities serving and/or required to be maintained or improved by the Shopping Center [including off-site utilities and facilities, retention areas, drainage facilities, parking facilities, traffic or parking improvements and all costs related thereto]; the cost of obtaining and operating public transportation or shuttle bus systems used in connection with bringing customers to the Shopping Center, including off-site parking costs; operation and maintenance of any parking garage and/or parking deck; the operation, maintenance and repair of any escalators and elevators; heating, ventilating and air-conditioning in the enclosed Common Area; the operation, management and maintenance of Landlord’s office in the Shopping Center; and the total compensation paid to or on behalf of on-site personnel associated with the Shopping Center, including, but not limited to, security personnel, the mall manager, assistant mall managers and other personnel who implement the aforesaid management, maintenance, security, operation or repair of the Shopping Center (including, but not limited to, employee benefits, payroll related taxes and insurance) and related costs;

(ii) the maintenance and repair (as defined in Section 2.14 hereof) (except to the extent of Landlord’s receipt of the proceeds of insurance therefor) of the roof and structural portions of the buildings situated in the Shopping Center;

(iii) all costs and expenses of every kind and nature paid or incurred by Landlord or its designees in connection with the purchase and maintenance of all insurance including broker fees, engineering fees, and retained losses in the year paid, including, but not limited to, special causes of loss form property coverage, business interruption, terrorism, crime, environmental liability (including cleanup costs), commercial general liability (including products/completed operations coverage), flood and earthquake carried by and at the discretion of Landlord, its designees, or any Mortgagee covering the Shopping Center, buildings and improvements, the Common Area and every other facility or property used or required or deemed necessary in connection with any of them, and the cost of compliance with insurance company requirements; and

(iv) the maintenance, repair (as defined in Section 2.14 hereof) (except to the extent of Landlord’s receipt of the proceeds of insurance therefor) of all other portions of the Shopping Center, buildings and improvements, including, without limitation, parking garages and decks, paved parking and pedestrian areas, sprinkler system and other common facilities, other than as set forth in subparagraphs (i), (ii) or (iii) hereof and other than such maintenance and repair that Landlord may perform on the interior of any tenants’ premises (except if performed in connection with the common facilities of the buildings situated in the Shopping Center).

In addition, Common Area Expenses shall include fifteen (15%) percent of all costs set forth in the foregoing subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) to cover Landlord’s administrative and overhead costs (the “Administrative Fee”).

(b) “Tenant’s Contribution” for each Contribution Year means Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of: (A) the Administrative Fee; and (B) all costs set forth in subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv). With respect to any partial Contribution Year described in Section 11.04(f)(ii)(A) below or any other period of time which is less than a full Contribution Year, Tenant’s Contribution shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) Tenant’s Contribution for the entire Contribution Year and (ii) a fraction the numerator of which shall be the number of days during such Contribution Year in which Tenant occupied the Demised Premises or the Lease was otherwise in effect (whichever is greater) and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the entire Contribution Year.

(c) Tenant shall pay monthly installments on account of Tenant’s Contribution to Landlord. Installments shall be paid in the same manner and at the same time as Minimum Rent. During the first Contribution Year, each monthly installment shall be based upon Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s Contribution for the Contribution Year, based upon the budget for the upcoming Contribution Year, subject to adjustment pursuant to subsection (e) hereof. Thereafter, the installments shall be one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant’s Contribution for the immediately prior Contribution Year, plus a percentage increase therein to reflect Landlord’s estimate of the increase in the Common Area Expenses over the prior Contribution Year.

(d) Within a reasonable time after each Contribution Year, Landlord shall send a statement to Tenant setting forth Common Area Expenses for that Contribution Year and Landlord’s calculation of Tenant’s Contribution. Each statement shall be conclusively binding on Tenant, its successors and assigns, as to the matter set forth therein, if no objection is raised with respect thereto within thirty (30) days after submission of each such statement to Tenant. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord's ability to budget and incur expenses depends on the finality of such statement, and accordingly agrees that time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s objection to the aforementioned statement. If Tenant’s Contribution exceeds the installments paid by Tenant under subsection (c) hereof, Tenant shall pay to

Landlord the difference between Tenant’s Contribution for that Contribution Year and the aggregate amount paid by Tenant on account of Tenant’s Contribution for that Contribution Year. The payments shall be made within thirty (30) days after Landlord renders a statement. If Tenant’s Contribution for any Contribution Year is less than the aggregate monthly installments paid under subsection (c) hereof with respect to that Contribution Year, Landlord shall promptly issue to Tenant a credit against Rent for any overpayment in Tenant’s Contribution paid by Tenant as a result of such overstatement. Tenant shall not have the right to examine, inspect or audit Landlord’s records pertaining to Common Area Expenses. Notwithstanding anything herein or any presumptions to the contrary, said statement, and all information contained therein or otherwise delivered to Tenant by Landlord, or its employees, agents and/or representatives, regarding Common Area Expenses including, without limitation, relating in any way to exclusions, deductions and Tenant’s Contribution, is strictly confidential information delivered for Tenant’s sole use and review. Tenant may not publish, share, exchange or in any way disseminate such statement, or any of the information contained therein, inferred or otherwise deduced therefrom, or otherwise delivered to Tenant from Landlord, to any party outside of Tenant and Tenant’s employees, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which Landlord may withhold in Landlord’s sole discretion, and then only upon the prior execution, by the intended recipient of any such information, of a confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to Landlord.

(e) Landlord shall maintain records of Common Area Expenses. These records may be kept in the form of books of account or computer memory. If Tenant timely notifies Landlord of an objection to the statement of Common Area Expenses, Tenant shall have the right, not more often than once each Contribution Year, to inspect and audit such records at Landlord's principal office, during normal business hours, on at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Landlord provided that all of the following criteria are met: (i) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an executed confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to Landlord; (ii) If Tenant elects to hire an auditor, Tenant’s auditor must be a certified public accountant from one of the “Big 4” firms of certified public accountants (or their successors), or at Tenant’s option, a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm of which at least one hundred fifty (150) partners or principals are certified public accountants, and provided Tenant’s certified public accounting firm executes a confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to Landlord; (iii) such audit may not be conducted by an auditor that is compensated on a contingency fee basis; (iv) no audit may be conducted during the months of December, January, February or March; (v) Tenant's auditor shall make an appointment with the Landlord's audit supervisor and Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate to arrange a mutually acceptable time within sixty (60) days of Tenant's request; notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be required to accommodate Tenant's auditors if other tenants have scheduled audits prior to Tenant's request on the date proposed by Tenant; (vi) before conducting any audit, Tenant must pay the full amount of Tenant's Contribution billed and must not be in default of any other Lease provision; (vii) Tenant may review only those records of Landlord that are specifically related to Common Area Expenses (without limiting the foregoing, Tenant may not review any other leases or anchor agreements, or Landlord's tax returns or financial statements); (viii) no audit shall cover a period of time in excess of one (1) Contribution Year immediately preceding the audit; (ix) the audit right set forth in this subsection 11.04(e) is not transferable by Tenant and shall be terminated if [INSERT NAME OF TENANT] or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof is not the Tenant under the Lease; and (x) any audit conducted by Tenant shall be completed within ninety (90) days after the date Landlord provides information to Tenant or its representative substantiating its billing.

No later than ninety (90) days after completion of any audit, Tenant will deliver to Landlord a copy of the audit report and all accompanying data. Upon the receipt of Landlord’s response to any audit report, Tenant shall have an additional period of ninety (90) days to object to any part of or all of Landlord’s response. Tenant’s failure to respond within the required ninety (90) day period shall be deemed an acceptance of any part of, or all of Landlord’s response not responded to.

Landlord shall retain all such records for at least twelve (12) months after the end of each Contribution Year. The failure by Tenant to inspect and audit such records within any such twelve (12) month period shall be deemed a waiver of its right to audit such records for that Contribution Year. If any such audit shows that Common Area Expenses were overstated, Landlord shall promptly issue to Tenant a credit against Rent for any overpayment in Tenant's Contribution paid by Tenant as a result of such overstatement. If any such audit shows that Common Area Expenses were understated, Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the amount of any understatement in Tenant’s Contribution. Tenant hereby grants to Landlord an offset and deduction against any refund, for all costs, payments and expenses Tenant is obligated to pay to Landlord pursuant to this Lease or otherwise due and owing to Landlord, at the time any such refund is determined.

(f) (i) “ Contribution Year” : mean each twelve (12) month period during the Term commencing on January 1st and ending on December 31st.

(ii) (A) The first Contribution Year shall commence on the Rent Commencement Date and shall end on the December 31st next following the Rent Commencement Date. The last Contribution Year shall end on the Expiration Date.

(B) Landlord shall have the option to change the Contribution Year at any time. The option may be exercised by giving a notice of the change to Tenant. The parties recognize that if the Contribution Year is changed, there will be a period of time between the last full Contribution Year as it was before the change and the first full Contribution Year after giving effect to the change. This period is referred to in this Lease as the “Interim Period”. If the Interim Period consists of less than six (6) months, the Interim Period shall be added to the first Contribution Year to occur after giving effect to the change. If the Interim Period consists of six (6) months or more, the Interim Period shall be treated as a Contribution Year.

(g) Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Contribution shall in no event be reduced or off-set by amounts or fees generated by Landlord from: the use, rental or license of the Common Areas; the operation of a parking garage or deck; kiosk or pushcart operators; space licensed to licensees pursuant to license agreements, or space occupied by temporary or seasonal tenants or occupants.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the computation of Tenant’s Contribution, Common Area Expenses shall not include the cost of new capital improvements, but may include repairs, maintenance, replacement, redecorating, and refurbishment to existing capital improvements, provided that the cost of any such work which is a capital improvement, as determined in accordance with GAAP or IFRS, if and when adopted [“Capital Improvement(s)”], shall be included in Common Area Expenses each Contribution Year starting with the Contribution Year in which the Capital Improvement(s) is performed and continuing thereafter over its actual useful life in an amount obtained by multiplying the total cost of such Capital Improvement(s) with interest on the unamortized amount thereof at the annual rate of two percent (2%) over the prime lending rate of Citibank, N.A., in New York City, or its successors, from time to time by a fraction the numerator of which is one (1) and the denominator of which is the number of years of actual useful life of such Capital Improvement(s). Any of the foregoing costs and expenses which the Landlord amortizes over a period of Contribution Years, whether paid or incurred prior to or subsequent to the execution of this Lease, shall be included in Common Area Expenses until such costs and expenses have been fully amortized.

(i) If any land or building shall be added to the Shopping Center from time to time, Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s Contribution payable on such additional land or building from the time they are first included in Common Area Expenses.

Section 11.05. Landlord’s Obligation with Respect to the Common Area:

Landlord shall maintain the Common Area within the Shopping Center in good order and repair throughout the Term. Landlord shall keep the parking areas within the Shopping Center properly drained and shall provide painted stripes to designated parking spaces. Within a reasonable time after the end of a snowfall and from at least 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., on all days the Shopping Center is open for business, Landlord will commence to plow and remove, if necessary, accumulated snow and treat ice within the parking areas within the Shopping Center and diligently prosecute the same to completion so that, to the extent practicable, the parking areas within the Shopping Center shall be reasonably free of snow and ice. Landlord may deposit accumulated snow on portions of the Common Area as may be necessary under the circumstances. For the purposes of this Section 11.05 it will be sufficient for Landlord to spread sand, salt or other abrasive substance over the ice.

Landlord and Tenant each agree that any special causes of loss form property insurance policies carried by each of them respectively and covering the Demised Premises or their contents will include such a clause or endorsement as long as the same shall be obtainable.

Simultaneously with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a certificate of insurance on a form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, evidencing all coverages specified in this Lease and copies of additional insured and waiver of subrogation endorsements (Blanket Endorsements and acceptable). Renewal Certificates of Insurance and additional insured and waiver of subrogation endorsements shall be similarly submitted as required to document continuous coverage.

(iii) If, in any proceeding, pursuant to the application of any Person other than Tenant, or any Guarantor to which neither of them acquiesce, a receiver or trustee shall be appointed for

Tenant, or any Guarantor or for all or any portion of the property of either and such receivership or trusteeship shall not be set aside within thirty (30) days after such appointment.

(iv) If Tenant shall refuse to take possession of the Demised Premises upon The Commencement Date or shall vacate the Demised Premises and permit the same to remain unoccupied and unattended (except as may be permitted pursuant to Section 9.01 herein).

(v) If Tenant shall fail to pay any Rent, or any other charge required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, when the same shall become due and payable, and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after Landlord shall give written notice of the failure to Tenant.

(vi) If Tenant fails to maintain, or fails to cause to be maintained, or fails to provide appropriate evidence of insurance as required under this Lease and any such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after Landlord shall give notice of the failure to Tenant.

(vii) If Tenant shall fail to perform or observe any other requirement of this Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant but not specifically referred to in this Section, and such failure shall continue for twenty (20) days after Landlord shall give notice of the failure to Tenant or in case the failure be of such nature that it cannot be cured within said period of twenty (20) days, then if Tenant shall fail within said period of twenty (20) days to commence the cure of such failure and thereafter to complete such cure with due diligence.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, if Tenant shall be in default in the timely payment of any Rent two (2) or more times in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months, then, notwithstanding that such default shall have been cured within the period after notice, as provided in this Lease, any further default in the timely payment of any item of Rent within said twelve (12) month period shall automatically be deemed to be a “Default” without the necessity of notice from Landlord to Tenant of such failure to pay.

(c) This Lease is subject to the following limitation: If at any time, a Default shall occur, then upon the happening of any one or more of the aforementioned Defaults, Landlord may give to Tenant a notice of intention to end the Term of this Lease at the expiration of five (5) days from the date of service of such notice of termination. At the expiration of such five (5) days, this Lease and the Term as well as all of the right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder shall wholly cease and expire, and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord. But notwithstanding such termination, surrender, and the expiration of Tenant’s right, title and interest, Tenant’s liability under all of the provisions of this Lease shall continue.

(d) In addition to the methods of communication set forth in Section 19.04, Landlord may transmit to Tenant a notice of Default or termination of this Lease via facsimile, via electronic mail communication or by leaving such notice at the Demised Premises, which notice shall be effective upon rejection or receipt of the communication.

Section 16.02. Landlord’s Re‑Entry:

If this Lease shall be terminated as herein provided, Landlord, or its agents or employees, may re‑enter the Demised Premises at any time and remove therefrom Tenant, Tenant’s Agents, subtenants, and any licensees, concessionaires or invitees, together with any of its or their property, either by summary dispossess proceedings or by any suitable action or proceeding at law or by force or otherwise. In the event of such termination, Landlord may repossess and enjoy the Demised Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of law respecting the speedy recovery of lands and tenements held over by Tenant, or proceedings in forcible entry and detainer. Tenant waives any rights to the service of any notice of Landlord’s intention to re‑enter provided for by any present or future law. Landlord shall not be liable in any way in connection with any action it takes pursuant to the foregoing. Notwithstanding any such re‑entry, repossession, dispossession or removal, Tenant’s liability under all of the provisions of this Lease shall continue. No such re-entry or taking possession of the Demised Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof shall result as a matter of law or be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any re-letting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter, elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.

Section 16.03. Deficiency:

(a) I n case of re‑entry, repossession or termination of this Lease, whether the same is the result of the institution of summary or other proceedings or not, Tenant shall remain liable (in addition to accrued liabilities) to the extent legally permissible for: (i) (x) the Rent, and all other charges provided for herein until the date this Lease would have expired (or, in the alternative, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the Rent and such other charges) had such termination, re‑entry or repossession not occurred; and (y) expenses to which Landlord may be put in re‑entering the Demised Premises, repossessing the same, making good any Default of Tenant, painting, altering or dividing the Demised

Premises, combining or placing the same in proper repair, protecting and preserving the same by placing therein watchmen and caretakers, reletting the same (including attorney’s fees and disbursements, marshal’s fees and broker’s fees, in so doing), and any expenses which Landlord may incur during the occupancy of any new tenant; minus (ii) the net proceeds of any re-letting. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the difference between items (i) and (ii) hereinabove with respect to each month, at the end of such month. Such payment shall be made to Landlord at the address set forth in Section 19.05 hereof or such other address as Landlord may designate by giving notice to Tenant. Any suit brought by Landlord to enforce collection of such difference for any one month shall not prejudice Landlord’s right to enforce the collection of any difference for any subsequent month. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such sums as the court which has jurisdiction thereover may adjudge reasonable as attorneys’ fees with respect to any successful lawsuit or action instituted by Landlord to enforce the provisions hereof.

(b) Landlord may re-let the whole or any part of said Demised Premises for the whole of the unexpired Term of this Lease, or longer, or from time to time for shorter period, for any rental then obtainable, giving such concessions of rent and making such special repairs, alterations, decorations and paintings for any new tenant as it may, in its sole and absolute discretion deem advisable. Tenant’s liability as aforesaid shall survive the institution of summary proceedings and the issuance of any warrant thereunder. Landlord shall be under no obligation to relet or to attempt to re-let the Demised Premises or to mitigate its damages in any other fashion arising from any occurrence described in this Section 16.03.

Section 16.04. Agreed Final Damages:

Upon payment of such liquidated and agreed final damages, Tenant shall be under no further liability with respect to the period after the date of such demand.

Section 16.05. Percentage Rent After a Default:

In determining the Percentage Rent which would be payable by Tenant for any period when Tenant is no longer in possession of the Demised Premises following a Default, the same shall be deemed to be for each Lease Year (or fractional part thereof) during the remainder of the Term, or the period equivalent thereto which otherwise would have constituted the balance of the Term, the greater of the following sums: (i) twenty-five (25%) percent of the Minimum Rent reserved for such period; or (ii) the average annual Percentage Rent paid or payable by Tenant from the Rent Commencement Date to the end of the Lease Year immediately preceding the occurrence of such Default, or during the immediately preceding three (3) full Lease Years, whichever period is shorter.

Section 16.06. Waiver of Right of Redemption:

Tenant hereby expressly waives (to the extent legally permissible), for itself and all persons claiming by, through, or under it, any right of redemption or for the restoration of the operation of this Lease under any present or future law in case Tenant shall be dispossessed for any cause, or in case Landlord shall obtain possession of the Demised Premises as herein provided. In the event Landlord commences any action or proceeding for non-payment of Minimum Rent or any items of additional rent due hereunder, Tenant shall not interpose any counterclaim of any nature or description in any such action or proceeding. The foregoing, however, shall not be construed as a waiver of Tenant’s right to assert such claim in a separate action or proceeding instituted by Tenant.

Section 16.07. Landlord’s Right to Perform for Account of Tenant:

If Tenant shall be in Default hereunder, Landlord or any Mortgagee may, at any time thereafter, cure said Default for the account and at the expense of Tenant.

Section 16.08. Additional Remedies, Waivers, Etc.:

With respect to the rights and remedies of and waivers by Landlord: (a) the rights and remedies of Landlord set forth herein shall be in addition to any other right and remedy now and hereafter provided by law. All such rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive of each other. Landlord may exercise such rights and remedies at such times, in such order, to such extent, and as often as Landlord deems advisable without regard to whether the exercise of one right or remedy precedes, concurs with or succeeds the exercise of another, (b) single or partial exercise of a right or remedy shall not preclude: (i) a further exercise thereof; or (ii) the exercise of another right or remedy, from time to time;

(c) no delay or omission by Landlord in exercising a right or remedy shall exhaust or impair the same or constitute a waiver of, or acquiescence to a Default; (d) no waiver of a Default shall extend to or affect any other Default or impair any right or remedy with respect thereto; (e) no action or inaction by Landlord shall constitute a waiver of a Default; and (f) no waiver of a Default shall be effective, unless it is in writing.

In addition to all other rights and remedies, if Tenant shall be in Default hereunder, Landlord shall, to the extent permitted by law, have a right of distress for Rent and a lien on all of Tenant’s fixtures, merchandise and equipment in the Demised Premises, as security for Rent and all other charges payable hereunder.

Section 16.10. Miscellaneous:

(a) No waiver of any covenant or condition or of the breach of any covenant or condition of this Lease shall be taken to constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach of such covenant or condition or to justify or authorize the non-observance on any other occasion of the same or of any other covenant or condition hereof, nor shall the acceptance of Minimum Rent or any item of additional rent by Landlord at any time when Tenant is in Default under any covenant or condition hereof be construed as a waiver of such Default or of Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease on account of such Default, nor shall any waiver or indulgence granted by Landlord to Tenant be taken as an estoppel against Landlord; it being expressly understood that if at any time Tenant shall be in Default in any of its covenants or conditions hereunder, an acceptance by Landlord of Minimum Rent or any item of additional rent during the continuance of such Default or the failure on the part of Landlord promptly to avail itself of such other rights or remedies as Landlord may have, shall not be construed as a waiver of such Default, but Landlord may at any time thereafter, if such Default continues, terminate this Lease on account of such Default in the manner herein provided.

(b) In the event of any breach by Tenant of any of the terms and provisions of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to injunctive relief as if no other remedies were provided herein for such breach.

(c) The rights and remedies herein reserved by, or granted to, Landlord are distinct, separate and cumulative, and the exercise of any one of them shall not be deemed to preclude, waive or prejudice Landlord’s right to exercise any or all others.

(d) Tenant hereby expressly waives any right to assert a defense based on merger and agrees that neither the commencement of any action or proceeding, nor the settlement thereof, nor the entry of judgment therein, shall bar Landlord from bringing any subsequent actions or proceedings from time to time.

(e) Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any provisions of the applicable statute of limitations as a defense in any action for collection of rentals or other charges accrued under this Lease which may be filed by Landlord against Tenant.

(f) If a Default shall occur hereunder prior to the date fixed as the commencement of any renewal or extension of this Lease, whether by a renewal option herein contained or by a separate agreement, Landlord may cancel such option or agreement for renewal or extension of this Lease, upon two (2) days’ notice to Tenant.

(g) Wherever in this Lease, Landlord has reserved or is granted the right of “re-entry” into the Demised Premises, the use of such word is not intended, nor shall it be construed, to be limited to its technical legal meaning.

(h) In the event that Landlord should bring suit for the possession of the Demised Premises, for the recovery of any sum due under this Lease, or because of the breach of any covenant of this Lease, or for any other relief against Tenant, declaratory or otherwise, or should Tenant bring any suit for any relief against Landlord, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Lease, and should Landlord prevail in any such suit, or should such suit be settled in favor of Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees that Landlord may have incurred in connection therewith, which shall be enforceable whether or not such suit is prosecuted to judgment.

(i) Nothing contained herein shall obligate Landlord to re-let in the event Tenant shall default hereunder.

(j) Any action, suit or proceeding relating to, arising out of or in connection with the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease may be brought by Landlord against Tenant in the courts of the State in which the Shopping Center is located. Tenant hereby waives any objection to jurisdiction or venue in any proceeding before said courts.

Section 16.11. Bankruptcy:

(a) Bankruptcy Proceedings: If at any time after the execution of this Lease, Tenant or Guarantor, if any, shall commence in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any state or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding (including, without limitation, a proceeding for liquidation, reorganization or for adjustment of debts of an individual with regular income), or if such a proceeding is commenced against Tenant or any Guarantor and either an order for relief is entered against such party or such party fails to secure a dismissal of the proceeding within thirty (30) days of the filing thereof, or if Tenant or Guarantor becomes insolvent or is unable or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or petitions for or enters into an arrangement with its creditors, or a custodian, receiver or independent fiduciary is appointed or takes possession or control of Tenant’s or Guarantor’s property, whether or not a judicial proceeding is instituted in connection with such arrangement or in connection with the appointment of such custodian, receiver or independent fiduciary (each of the foregoing events is hereinafter referred to as an “act of bankruptcy”), then Landlord, in addition to any and all other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the immediate right to terminate this Lease or reenter the Demised Premises without terminating this Lease and to dispossess Tenant and all other occupants therefrom and remove and dispose of all property therein or, at Landlord’s election, to store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of, Tenant, all without service of any notice of intention to reenter and with or without resort to legal process (which Tenant hereby expressly waives) and without being deemed guilty of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby, and Landlord may retain as partial damages, and not as a penalty, any prepaid rents and any Security and Landlord shall also be entitled to exercise such rights and remedies to recover from Tenant as damages such amounts as are specified in Article XVI of this Lease, unless any statute or rule of law governing the proceedings in which such damages are to be proved shall lawfully limit the amount of such claims capable of being so proved, in which case Landlord shall be entitled to recover, as and for liquidated damages, the maximum amount which may be allowed under any such statute or rule of law. Tenant acknowledges that the continued operation of business in the Demised Premises in the manner and upon the terms set forth in this Lease are of a special importance to the commercial viability of the Shopping Center. Therefore, in the event this Lease is not canceled and terminated as set forth in this Section 16.11, then Tenant and the trustee in bankruptcy or other representative of Tenant or, in the event of an assignment, Tenant’s assignee, shall comply with all of the provisions of Article XVII and, in addition, provide adequate assurance to Landlord: (a) of the source of rent and other consideration payable under this Lease; (b) that any Percentage Rent payable under this Lease shall not decline substantially after the date of such assumption or assignment, as the case may be; (c) that assumption or assignment of this Lease will not breach substantially any provision in any other lease, financing agreement, or master agreement relating to the Shopping Center; (d) of the continued use of the Demised Premises in accordance with the Permitted Use only, Tenant hereby acknowledges that only in the operating of such business for the Permitted Use may Landlord be adequately assured that assumption or assignment of this Lease will not disrupt substantially the tenant mix or balance in the Shopping Center; (e) that the quality of goods to be sold in the Demised Premises will not decline; (f) that the operation of the business in the Demised Premises shall continue to be of the high standard compatible with Landlord’s other tenants in the Shopping Center; (g) that Tenant’s suppliers of merchandise or goods for sale in the Demised Premises are willing to continue to furnish such merchandise and goods as are of the same quality and caliber as therefore sold in the Demised Premises; (h) of the source of funds necessary to pay for Tenant’s merchandise and goods to be sold in the Demised Premises, all on a current basis; (i) of the continuous operation of business in the Demised Premises in strict accordance with the requirements of Section 9.02 hereof; (j) that the design and furnishings of the Demised Premises shall continue to be acceptable to Landlord in accordance with the terms hereof; and (k) of such other matters as Landlord may require at the time of such assumption or assignment in accordance with the terms hereof.

In the event that any person assuming this Lease, or taking the same by assignment, shall desire to make alterations to the Demised Premises, Landlord may further require adequate assurance, by lien and completion bond, cash deposit or such other means as Landlord may approve, of the source of payment for the estimated cost of any work performed in connection therewith, and that Landlord may require the delivery prior to the commencement thereof of waivers of lien from all contractors or subcontractors engaged to perform such alterations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such alterations shall be subject in all respects to the rights and obligations of Landlord or Tenant relating to such alterations, including, without limitation, those set forth in Article VII.

(b) Tenant’s Interest Not Transferable : Neither Tenant’s interest in this Lease, nor any estate hereby created in Tenant nor any interest herein shall pass to any trustee, except as may be specifically provided pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 101, et seq .), or to any receiver or assignee for the benefit of creditors or otherwise by operation of law.

(c) Acts of Bankruptcy : In the event the interest or estate created in Tenant hereby shall be taken in execution or by other process of law, or if Tenant or Guarantor, if any, or Tenant’s executors, administrators, or assigns, if any, shall be adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt pursuant to the provisions of any state law or an order for the relief of such entity shall be entered pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, or if a receiver or trustee of the property of Tenant or Guarantor, if any, shall be appointed

Landlord has made no representations or warranties regarding the profitability of the Demised Premises or the Shopping Center, and Tenant has not entered into this Lease in reliance on any such representations, warranties or financial projections prepared or furnished to Tenant by Landlord. The parties agree that any deletion of language from this Lease prior to its mutual execution by Landlord and Tenant shall not be construed to have any particular meaning or to raise any presumption, canon of construction or implication, including, without limitation, any implication that the parties intended thereby to state the converse, obverse or opposite of the deleted language. No alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless reduced to writing and signed by each party.

Section 19.26. Execution:

This Lease shall be of no force and effect unless and until it is executed by both Landlord and Tenant and an executed original thereof is unconditionally delivered to each party. Any facsimile transmittal of original signature versions of this Agreement shall be considered to have the same legal effect as execution and delivery of the original document and shall be treated in all manner and respects as the original document.

Section 19.27. Relocation:

In the event Landlord shall elect to add additional buildings to the Shopping Center or expand, reconfigure, renovate or remerchandise any of the buildings or Common Area contained therein (the “Renovation”), Landlord shall have the right to relocate Tenant to other premises (the “New Demised Premises”) in another part of the Shopping Center in accordance with the provisions contained in this Section. The New Demised Premises shall be substantially the same in size and configuration as the Demised Premises described in this Lease. Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either (i) deliver the New Demised Premises to Tenant in a condition substantially similar to the condition then existing at that Demised Premises, exclusive of trade fixtures and equipment, furnishings, decorations and other items of personal property; or (ii) deliver the New Demised Premises to Tenant in substantially the same condition as the Demised Premises were, or are to be, delivered to Tenant hereunder and pay to Tenant upon the completion of Tenant’s Work in the New Demised Premises and the opening of the New Demised Premises for business, a sum equal to the then unamortized cost of Tenant’s initial leasehold improvements at the Demised Premises, such amortization to be determined on a straight-line depreciation method allowed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (as amended) assuming a depreciation period over the Term. Landlord shall give Tenant at least ninety (90) days’ notice of Landlord’s intention to relocate Tenant to the New Demised Premises. To the extent determined by Landlord to be practicable, Tenant’s Work in the New Demised Premises shall be performed while Tenant is open for business in the Demised Premises and the physical move shall take place during non‑business hours, if reasonably possible, or during such other period as shall be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Minimum Rent, Tenant’s Contribution, Tax Contribution, the Marketing Service Charge and the Media Fund Charge shall abate for any period during which Tenant’s business shall be closed to the public as a result of the Renovation. If the New Demised Premises are smaller or larger than the Demised Premises, Minimum Rent and all other charges based upon Floor Area shall be adjusted proportionately by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet of Floor Area in the New Demised Premises and the denominator of which shall be the number of square feet of Floor Area in the Demised Premises. Upon request of Landlord, the parties shall execute an amendment to this Lease providing for the relocation of Tenant to the New Demised Premises as herein provided. In order to give effect to the foregoing, Tenant shall, within sixty (60) days after the Rent Commencement Date, furnish to Landlord a statement, signed by an independent certified public accountant, setting forth in detail the cost of Tenant’s initial leasehold improvements at the Demised Premises.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event other premises are not available for the relocation of the Demised Premises at the time of the Renovation, Landlord may elect, in its sole discretion, upon notice to Tenant, to: (a) terminate this Lease, in which event the Term shall end and expire on the date set forth in Landlord’s notice (but not earlier than ninety (90) days after receipt of said notice by Tenant) as if such date were the date originally set forth in this Lease for the Term to end and expire; or (b) suspend the Term during the Renovation, in which event Tenant shall cease the operation of business at the Demised Premises for the period (“Suspension Period”) commencing on the date set forth in Landlord’s notice (but not earlier than ninety (90) days after receipt of said notice by Tenant) and ending on the date on which Landlord requests Tenant to resume the operation of business at the Demised Premises. In the event Landlord shall elect to suspend the Term, Rent shall abate during the Suspension Period and the Term shall be extended by the number of days contained in the Suspension Period.

In the event Tenant shall not vacate and surrender possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord or cease its operations of business at the Demised Premises, as the case may be, on the date and in the manner required pursuant to the preceding paragraph, in addition to all other liabilities and damages to which Tenant shall be subject by reason thereof, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs, charges and expenses, including architects’ and attorneys’ fees, which may be imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with Tenant’s failure to surrender possession of, or cease its operation of business at, the Demised Premises. Landlord shall also have the right to specific performance with respect to Tenant’s obligation to surrender possession of, or cease operation of its business at, the Demised Premises. The election of Landlord to insist upon specific performance in such event shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of any provision, covenant, agreement or condition on the part of Tenant to be performed or of any other remedy that Landlord may be entitled to under this Lease, at law or otherwise.

Section 19.28. Construction - Adjacent Demised Premises:

If any construction, excavation or other building operation shall be about to be made or shall be made on any premises adjoining or above or below the Demised Premises, or on any other portion of the Shopping Center, including, but not limited to, any expansion or reconfiguration by the addition of new or reconfigured buildings, improvements or multi-level, decked or subsurface parking structures (“Expansion”), Tenant shall permit Landlord, or the adjoining owner, and their respective agents, employees, licensees and contractors, to enter the Demised Premises and to strengthen, add to or shore the foundations, walls, columns or supporting members thereof, and to erect scaffolding or protective barricades around and about the Demised Premises and to do any act or thing necessary for the safety or preservation of the Demised Premises, including, but not limited to, the closing of any entrance to or exit from the Demised Premises (“Construction Work”). Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience, disturbance, annoyance or loss of business arising from the Construction Work, but Landlord shall take reasonable steps so that the Construction Work will cause as little inconvenience, annoyance and disturbance to Tenant as reasonably possible consistent with accepted construction practice. Landlord shall have the right of access to enter upon the Demised Premises to perform the Construction Work and shall use reasonable efforts to complete the Construction Work as promptly as possible (considering the nature and extent of the work and subject to accepted construction practices). Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to temporarily curtail its business or to close the Demised Premises if necessary in connection with the Construction Work. Accordingly, (i) if Landlord requires Tenant to temporarily suspend business or to close the Demised Premises because of the Construction Work, or (ii) if Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Demised Premises or Tenant’s access to the Covered Mall in front of the Demised Premises is materially interfered with, and Tenant temporarily closes for business, Tenant shall receive an abatement of Minimum Rent on a per diem basis for the number of days Tenant is required to close. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to seek damages or to terminate this Lease because of the Construction Work, nor shall Tenant have the right to restrict, inhibit or prohibit the Expansion.

Section 19.29. Tenant Requested Documentation:

In the event Tenant shall request an amendment to this Lease, or in the event Tenant shall request a subordination of any rights of Landlord, or the rights of any mortgagee or ground lessor, or any other documentation requiring review and/or execution by Landlord, in addition to having the independent discretion to approve or reject any such request, Landlord shall have the further right to condition approval upon the payment by Tenant, in advance, of a reasonable fee, in the minimum amount of FIVE HUNDRED and 00/100 ($500.00) DOLLARS, to reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s administrative expense in handling such request and obtaining legal review of all documents submitted.

Section 19.30. Submission of Lease to Tenant:

THE SUBMISSION BY LANDLORD TO TENANT OF THIS LEASE SHALL HAVE NO FORCE OR EFFECT, SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE AN OPTION FOR THE LEASING OF THE DEMISED PREMISES, NOR CONFER ANY RIGHTS OR IMPOSE ANY OBLIGATION UPON EITHER PARTY UNLESS AND UNTIL EXECUTION THEREOF BY LANDLORD AND THE UNCONDITIONAL DELIVERY OF AN EXECUTED ORIGINAL COPY THEREOF TO LANDLORD AND TENANT OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVES.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Tenant shall not permit the Demised Premises or any portion thereof to be used, occupied or operated by or for the benefit of any person or entity that is on the OFAC List. Tenant shall provide documentary and other evidence of Tenant's identity and ownership as may be reasonably requested by Landlord at any time to enable Landlord to verify Tenant's identity or to comply with any Legal request. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all losses, damages, liabilities, cost and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) that are incurred by Landlord and/or its affiliate that derive from a claim made by a third party against Landlord and/or its affiliates arising or alleged to arise from a misrepresentation made by Tenant hereunder or a breach of any covenant to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

Section 19.34. ICIP, ICAP Tax Abatement:

(a) Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is seeking benefits in respect of the Shopping Center under the Industrial and Commercial Incentive Program of The City of New York (the " ICIP ") and/or the Industrial and Commercial Abatement Program of The City of New York (the " ICAP ") or other similar program (collectively, the “ ICIP/ICAP Abatement ”). Tenant agrees that Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in connection with seeking the ICIP/ICAP Abatement. Tenant therefore agrees to facilitate Landlord's seeking and obtaining such benefits under the ICIP/ICAP Abatement by complying with the following provisions, to the extent required for Landlord to comply with ICIP/ICAP Abatement. Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate with each other in connection with the application for the ICIP/ICAP Abatement, including supplying all information necessary to prepare the application or other forms required to be filed in order to obtain the benefit of the ICIP/ICAP Abatement, and to execute and deliver all documents, instruments, applications or other forms which may be reasonably necessary in connection therewith. After the ICIP/ICAP Abatement shall have been obtained, and thereafter during the Term, Landlord and Tenant shall comply with all requirements of the ICIP/ICAP Abatement including to duly and timely file all necessary reports, statements and schedules required to maintain the ICIP/ICAP Abatement in full force and effect. Nothing contained in this Section 19.34 shall obligate Tenant to take any action or file any report, statement or schedule with respect to Landlord’s Work or the conduct of any business activity within any portion of the Shopping Center other than the Demised Premises.

(b) It is further understood and agreed that (in order to enable Landlord to comply with certain requirements of the ICIP/ICAP Abatement):

(i) Landlord is seeking, or has obtained benefits under the ICIP/ICAP Abatement program;

(ii) Tenant (and/or its contractors and subcontractors) agrees to report to Landlord the nature of its business, the number of workers permanently engaged in employment in the Demised Premises, the nature of each worker's employment (i.e., job classification or job title) and the New York City residency of each worker (and the names and addresses of such residents if required by New York City for verification) and Tenant will require that a clause similar to this be contained in any sublease, passing to the benefit of Tenant and of Landlord, if any sublease of all or a portion of the Demised Premises is made;

(iii) Tenant (and/or its contractors and subcontractors) shall cooperate with Landlord, and Tenant (and/or its contractors and subcontractors) will supply such information and comply with such reporting requirements as Landlord advises Tenant are reasonably necessary to comply with the ICIP/ICAP Abatement to the extent relating to the Demised Premises, including, but not limited to: (a) such information concerning subleases (including a rent roll with respect thereto); and (b) the filing of Employment Reports and other such forms with the Division of Labor Services. Tenant will assist Landlord in connection with maintaining its eligibility under the ICIP/ICAP Abatement; but shall have no liability to Landlord if Landlord does not become eligible or does not maintain its eligibility unless such result is due to a breach of its obligations hereunder by Tenant;

(iv) Tenant agrees to provide access to the Demised Premises by employees and agents of the Department of Finance of the City of New York, the Division of Labor Services, or any such other agency, at all reasonable times at the request of Landlord; and

(v) Tenant shall not be required to pay taxes or charges which become due because of the neglect or fraud by Landlord in connection with the ICIP/ICAP Abatement program or otherwise relieve or indemnify Landlord from any personal liability arising under Administrative Code §11-265, except where imposition of such taxes, charges or liability is occasioned by actions of Tenant in violation of this Lease.

(c) Any benefits obtained by Landlord under the ICIP/ICAP Abatement program shall reduce the Impositions upon which Tenant pays its Tax Contributions hereunder.

Section 19.35. Condominium Conversion:

Landlord, at any time during the Term, shall have the right to convert the Shopping Center to a condominium form of ownership, in which the Demised Premises (or the Demised Premises and other portions of the Shopping Center) would constitute a separate condominium unit(s). Tenant agrees, at Landlord’s option, to subordinate Tenant’s interest in this Lease to the condominium declaration and all of the terms, conditions and provisions thereof and Tenant agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by Landlord to confirm such subordination provided that Tenant’s rights and benefits under this Lease shall not be decreased by more than a de-minimis degree and Tenant’s obligations shall not be increased by more than a de-minimis degree by virtue of the imposition of a condominium regime. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord so converts the Shopping Center to a condominium form of ownership, then, with respect to the period from and after the date that Impositions are imposed separately on the condominium unit of which the Demised Premises are a part: (i) Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall be recalculated to be a fraction, the numerator of which is the Floor Area of the Demised Premises, and the denominator of which is the Floor Area of such condominium unit; (ii) Impositions shall be deemed to mean only the Impositions imposed on such condominium unit and the Common Areas allocable thereto; and (iii) Common Area Expenses shall be deemed to mean only the Common Area Expenses incurred in respect of such condominium unit and the Common Areas allocable thereto including, without limitation, common charges for such unit.

Section 19.36. Zoning Lot Merger Agreement:

Tenant hereby waives irrevocably any rights that Tenant may have in connection with any zoning lot merger or transfer of development rights with respect to the Shopping Center, including, without limitation, any rights that Tenant may have to be a party to, to contest, or to execute any Declaration of Restrictions (as such term is used in Section 12-10 of the Zoning Resolution of The City of New York effective December 15, 1961, as amended) with respect to the Shopping Center, which would cause the Demised Premises to be merged with or unmerged from any other zoning lot pursuant to such Zoning Resolution or to any document of a similar nature and purpose. Tenant agrees that this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any Declaration of Restrictions or any other document of similar nature and purpose now or hereafter affecting the Shopping Center (provided that any such Declaration of Restrictions or any such other document shall not impair Tenant’s rights hereunder, or expand Tenant’s obligations hereunder). In confirmation of such subordination and waiver, Tenant, from time to time, shall execute and deliver promptly any certificate or instrument that Landlord reasonably requests.

Section 19.37. Inability to Perform:

(a) Landlord shall not be required to carry out any of its obligations hereunder, nor be liable for loss or damage for failure to do so, nor shall the Tenant thereby be released from any of its obligations hereunder, where such failure arises by reason of delays caused by Force Majeure.

(b) If Landlord is so delayed or prevented from performing any of its obligations, the period of such delay or such prevention shall be added to the time herein provided for the performance of any such obligation.

Section 19.38. Brokerage:

Tenant represents that there was no broker (other than any person designated as Broker in Article I) instrumental in consummating this Lease, and that no conversations or prior negotiations were had with any broker (other than the Broker) concerning the renting of the Demised Premises. Tenant agrees to hold Landlord harmless against any claims for brokerage commission or compensation arising out of any conversations or negotiations had by Tenant with any broker (other than the Broker).

Section 19.39. Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment:

Landlord covenants that if Tenant pays the Rent and all other charges provided for herein, performs all of its obligations provided for hereunder, and observes all of the other provisions hereof, Tenant shall at all times during the Term peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises, without any interruption or disturbance from Landlord, subject to the terms hereof.

Section 19.40. Managers:

Landlord has appointed Vornado Management Corp. (“Vornado”) and Urban Edge Properties LP (“Urban Edge”) each having an address at 210 Route 4 East, Paramus, New Jersey 07652, as its managing agent and submanager, respectively (collectively, the “Managers”) to operate the Shopping Center and/or execute this Lease. Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, in

Landlord’s sole discretion, terminate or replace the Managers. Tenant acknowledges that Managers will not be acting in a personal capacity, but rather in a representative capacity as the managing agent for Landlord. Tenant agrees that it shall look only to Landlord for the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and for the satisfaction of any right of Tenant for the collection of any claim, judgment or other judicial determination (whether at law or in equity) or arbitration award requiring the payment of money, and neither Managers nor any of their direct or indirect parent, partners or members, nor their respective agents, incorporators, shareholders, beneficiaries, trustees, officers, directors, employees, partners, members, principals (disclosed or undisclosed) or affiliates (individually and collectively, “Related Parties”) or any of their respective assets or property, shall be subject to any claim, judgment, levy, lien, execution, attachment or other enforcement procedure (whether at law or in equity) for the satisfaction of Tenant’s rights and remedies under or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease or under applicable law, or Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Demised Premises, or any liability or obligation of Landlord to Tenant. The limitation of Landlord’s liability under this Lease, including any waiver of subrogation rights, shall apply with equal force and effect to, and for the benefit of Managers and their Related Parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have caused this Lease to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

C. The parties hereto desire to make the Lease subject and subordinate to the lien of the Security Instrument in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Statement of Agreement

For and in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, it is hereby agreed as follows:

1. Lender, Tenant and Landlord do hereby covenant and agree that the Lease with all rights, options (including options to acquire or lease all or any part of the Property), liens and charges created thereby, is and shall continue to be subject and subordinate in all respects to the

lien of the Security Instrument and any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and all advancements made thereunder.

2. Lender does hereby agree with Tenant that, in the event Lender becomes the owner of the Premises by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, so long as Tenant complies with and performs its obligations under the Lease within any applicable notice and cure period (a) the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct Lease between the succeeding owner of the Property and Tenant, upon and subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, for the balance of the term of the Lease, and Lender will not disturb the possession of Tenant, seek to evict Tenant or terminate Tenant’s leasehold possession subject to all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, and (b) the Premises shall be subject to the Lease and Lender shall recognize Tenant as the tenant of the Premises for the remainder of the term of the Lease, as such term may be extended or renewed pursuant to the Lease, in accordance with the provisions thereof; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall prevent Lender from naming Tenant in any foreclosure or other action or proceeding initiated by Lender pursuant to the Security Instrument to the extent necessary under applicable law in order for Lender to avail itself of and complete the foreclosure or other remedy, provided, however, if Tenant is so named in any foreclosure or other action, Lender shall not seek affirmative relief from Tenant in such foreclosure or other action, nor shall the Lease be cut off or terminated nor Tenant’s possession thereunder be disturbed in any such foreclosure or other action.

3. Tenant does hereby agree with Lender that, in the event Lender becomes the owner of the Premises by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, then Tenant shall attorn, following the delivery of a written notice from Lender directing such attornment, to and recognize Lender as the landlord under the Lease for the remainder of the term thereof, and Tenant shall perform and observe its obligations thereunder, subject only to the terms and conditions of the Lease. Tenant further covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon request of Lender an appropriate agreement of attornment to Lender and any subsequent titleholder of the Premises.

4. Tenant agrees that, in the event Lender succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease, Lender shall not be:

(a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord) other than the continuing obligations and/or defaults of any prior landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord) under the Lease which continue after Tenant begins attorning to the Lender provided that Lender has received notice of said continuing obligations and/or defaults of any such prior landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord);

(b) subject to any defense which Tenant may have against any prior landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord), except such defenses which Tenant may have pursuant to an express provision in the Lease;

(c) subject to any offsets or recoupment which Tenant might be entitled to assert against any previous landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord); except to the extent of any offset or recoupment rights (including rights of abatement or credit)

expressly set forth in the Lease, and provided that Lender shall have received written notice of the default entitling Tenant to such offset, recoupment, abatement or credit right prior to Lender taking title to the Property in accordance with this Agreement and thereafter Lender shall have failed to cure such default in accordance with Paragraph 6 below;

(d) bound by any payment of rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than one month in advance of the due date under the Lease to any prior Landlord (including, without limitation, the then defaulting Landlord);

(e) bound by any obligation to make any payments to Tenant which was required to be made prior to the time Lender succeeded to any prior Landlord’s interest;

(f) accountable for any monies deposited with any prior Landlord (including security deposits), except to the extent such monies are actually received by Lender;

(g) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease hereafter made unless made, given or done during the term of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Security Instrument or with the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall be deemed given if not granted or reasonably denied within the time period provided in the Security Instrument; or

(h) bound by any surrender or termination of the Lease made without the consent of Lender, except to the extent such surrender, or termination is made by Tenant pursuant to an express provision in the Lease or is in connection with a default by Landlord under the Lease.

5. Tenant acknowledges that the Security Instrument will contain an assignment of leases and rents, which assigns the Lease and the rent and all other sums due thereunder to Lender as security for the Loan, and Tenant hereby expressly consents to such assignment. Tenant acknowledges that the interest of the Landlord under the Lease has been assigned to Lender solely as security for the purposes specified in said assignments, and Lender shall have no duty, liability or obligation whatsoever under the Lease or any extension or renewal thereof, either by virtue of said assignments or by any subsequent receipt or collection of rents thereunder, unless Lender shall specifically undertake such liability in writing or unless Lender or its designee or nominee becomes, and then only with respect to periods in which Lender or its designee or nominee becomes, the fee owner of the Premises. Tenant further agrees that upon receipt of a written notice from Lender of a default by Landlord under the Loan, Tenant will thereafter, if requested by Lender, pay rent to Lender in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Landlord shall have no claim against Tenant for any amounts paid to Lender pursuant to any such notice.

6. Tenant hereby agrees to give to Lender copies of all notices of Landlord default(s) under the Lease in the same manner as, and whenever, Tenant shall give any such notice of default to Landlord. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remedy any Landlord default under the Lease, or to cause any default of Landlord under the Lease to be remedied, and for such purpose Tenant hereby grants Lender a 15-day period if such default can be cured by the payment of a fixed or ascertainable sum, or a 30-day cure period if such default cannot be cured by the payment of a fixed or ascertainable sum (or such longer period as may be necessary if the default

is not susceptible to cure within 30 days provided Lender commences the cure of such default in such 30-day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure until completed) in addition to the period given to Landlord for remedying, or causing to be remedied, any such default. Tenant shall accept performance by Lender of any term, covenant, condition or agreement to be performed by Landlord under the Lease with the same force and effect as though performed by Landlord. No Landlord default under the Lease shall exist or shall be deemed to exist (i) as long as Lender, in good faith, shall have commenced to cure such default within the above referenced time period and shall be prosecuting the same to completion with reasonable diligence, subject to force majeure, or (ii) if possession of the Premises is required in order to cure such default, or if such default is not susceptible of being cured by Lender, as long as Lender, in good faith, shall have notified Tenant that Lender intends to institute proceedings under the Security Instrument, and thereafter, as long as such proceedings shall have been instituted and shall be prosecuted within reasonable diligence. In the event of the termination of the Lease by reason of any default thereunder by Landlord, upon Lender’s written request, given within thirty (30) days after any such termination, Tenant, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such request, shall execute and deliver to Lender or its designee or nominee a new lease of the Premises for the remainder of the term of the Lease upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease. Lender shall have the right, without Tenant’s consent, to foreclose the Security Instrument or to accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure or to exercise any other remedies under the Security Instrument.

7. Lender shall have no obligations nor incur any liability with respect to the construction or completion of the improvements in which the Premises are located or for completion of the Premises or any improvements for Tenant’s use and occupancy. Lender shall have no obligations nor incur any liability with respect to any warranties of any nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, hazardous wastes or environmental laws, Landlord’s title, Landlord’s authority, habitability, fitness for purpose or possession. In the event that Lender shall acquire title to the Premises or the Property, Lender shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Lender’s then equity interest, if any, in the Property and Tenant shall look exclusively to such equity interest of Lender, if any, in the Property for the payment and discharge of any obligations or liability imposed upon Lender hereunder, under the Lease or under any new lease of the Premises.

8. Tenant acknowledges, without limitation, that the subordinations provided hereby include a full and complete subordination by Tenant of any options it may have to purchase all or any portion of the Property, rights of first refusal or similar rights to purchase all or any portion of the Property, whether such rights are provided in the Lease or elsewhere. Tenant hereby further agrees that any such option to purchase or right of first refusal shall be expressly inapplicable to any foreclosure of the Security Instrument or acquisition of the Property or any interest therein by Lender or any designee of Lender by conveyance in lieu thereof or similar transaction.

9. If any portion or portions of this Agreement shall be held invalid or inoperative, then all of the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect, and, so far as is reasonable and possible, effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion or portions held to be invalid or inoperative.

10. Lender shall not, either by virtue of the Security Instrument or this Agreement, be or become a mortgagee in possession or be or become subject to any liability or obligation under the Lease or otherwise until Lender shall have acquired the interest of Landlord in the Premises, by foreclosure or otherwise, and then such liability or obligation of Lender under the Lease shall, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4 hereof, extend only to those liabilities or obligations accruing subsequent to the date that Lender has acquired the interest of Landlord in the Premises as modified by the terms of this Agreement.

11. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be considered as properly given (a) if mailed by first class United States mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified with return receipt requested; (b) by delivering same in person to the intended addressee; or (c) by delivery to an independent third party commercial delivery service for same day or next day delivery and providing for evidence of receipt at the office of the intended addressee.

13. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be effective only upon delivery and thereafter shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall be taken to be one and the same instrument, for the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same signature page.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Mortgagee at a convenient place (at the Unit if tangible property) reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Mortgagee in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(viii) any physical damage to the Property from intentional waste committed by any Borrower Related Party (but excluding any matter that arises by reason of lack of cash flow with respect to the Property, except to the extent that such lack of cash flow arises from the misappropriation of revenue with respect to the Property);

ARTICLE V

SUBORDINATION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS

Section 5.1 Subordination of All Guarantor Claims . As used herein, the term “ Guarantor Claims ” shall mean all debts and liabilities of Borrower to Guarantor, whether

such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of Borrower thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by Guarantor. The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation all rights and claims of Guarantor against Borrower (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of Guarantor’s payment of all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Guarantor shall not receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from Borrower or any other party any amount upon the Guarantor Claims.

Section 5.2 Claims in Bankruptcy . In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving Guarantor as debtor, Lender shall have the right to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon the Guarantor Claims. Guarantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to Lender. Should Lender receive, for application against the Guaranteed Obligations, any dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to Guarantor and which, as between Borrower and Guarantor, shall constitute a credit against the Guarantor Claims, then, upon payment to Lender in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of Lender to the extent that such payments to Lender on the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guaranteed Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guaranteed Obligations which would have been unpaid if Lender had not received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.

Section 5.3 Payments Held in Trust . In the event that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, Guarantor should receive any funds, payment, claim or distribution which is prohibited by this Guaranty, Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for Lender an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims and/or distributions so received except to pay them promptly to Lender, and Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to Lender.

Section 5.4 Liens Subordinate . Guarantor agrees that any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower’s assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower’s assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Guarantor or Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of Lender, Guarantor shall not (a) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against Borrower in respect of any Guarantor Claim, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages, deeds

of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of Borrower held by Guarantor in respect of any Guarantor Claim.

Section 5.5 Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances . If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest under the Note or any other amount payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, if any, with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment has been due but not made at such time.

ARTICLE VI

WAIVER/NOTICE

Section 6.1 Waiver . No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of Lender, 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. The rights of Lender hereunder shall be in addition to all other rights provided by law. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor any consent to any departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand.

Section 6.2 Notices . All notices or other written communications hereunder shall be delivered in accordance with Section 15.6 of the Loan Agreement (except that notices to Guarantor shall be delivered to the address set forth therein for Borrower).

This Guaranty, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, restated, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Guarantor or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, restatement, change, discharge or termination is sought.

Any assignee or transferee of Lender shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded to Lender under this Guaranty. Except as specifically provided in the Loan Agreement, Guarantor shall not have the right to delegate, assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Guaranty without the prior written consent of Lender, and any attempted assignment, delegation or transfer without such consent shall be null and void. If Guarantor consists of more than one Person or party, the obligations of each such Person or party shall be joint and several.

(a) Guarantor and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of guarantor and lender.

Section 9.8 Limitation on Lender’s Responsibility .

Section 9.10 Exculpation of Certain Persons . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, no direct or indirect shareholder, partner, member, principal, Affiliate, employee, officer, trustee, director, agent or other representative of Guarantor (each, a “ Related Party ”) shall have any personal liability for, nor be joined as a party to, any action (except as required by any applicable Legal Requirements) with respect to the payment, performance or discharge of any covenants, obligations or undertakings of Guarantor under this Guaranty, and by acceptance hereof, Lender for itself and its successors and assigns irrevocably waive any and all right to sue for, seek or demand any such damages, money judgment, deficiency judgment or personal judgment against any Related Party under or by reason of or in connection with the Loan Documents and agree to look solely to the assets of Guarantor for the enforcement of such liability and obligation of Guarantor. In addition to the foregoing, notwithstanding anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary, in no event shall the assets of any Related Party (including any distributions made by Guarantor to its direct or

indirect members, partners or shareholders) be available to satisfy any obligation of Guarantor hereunder.

Section 9.11 Time of the Essence . Time is of the essence with respect to the performance by Guarantor of its obligations pursuant to this Guaranty.

Section 9.12 Invalid Provisions . If any provision of this Guaranty is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Guaranty, such provision shall be fully severable and this Guaranty shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Guaranty, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Guaranty, unless such continued effectiveness of this Guaranty, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and intentions of the parties as expressed herein.

Section 9.13 Cooperation . Guarantor acknowledges that Lender and its successors and assigns, in accordance with the Loan Agreement, may (i) sell this Guaranty, the Note and the other Loan Documents to one or more investors as a whole loan, (ii) participate the Loan secured by this Guaranty to one or more investors, (iii) deposit this Guaranty, the Note and the other Loan Documents with a trust, which trust may sell certificates to investors evidencing an ownership interest in the trust assets, or (iv) otherwise sell or pledge the Loan or one or more interests therein to investors (the transactions referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) are hereinafter each referred to as a “ Secondary Market Transaction ”). Guarantor shall cooperate reasonably with Lender in effecting any such Secondary Market Transaction and shall cooperate reasonably to implement all requirements imposed by any Rating Agencies involved in any Secondary Market Transaction.

It is understood that the information provided by Guarantor to Lender including any and all financial statements provided to Lender pursuant to Section 3.9 hereof may ultimately be incorporated into the offering documents for the Secondary Market Transaction and thus various investors or potential investors may also see some or all of the information. Lender and all of the aforesaid third-party advisors and professional firms shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, Guarantor in the form as provided by Guarantor. Lender may publicize the existence of the Loan in connection with its marketing for a Secondary Market Transaction or otherwise as part of its business development. Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 9.13 shall be at the sole cost and expense of Lender.

Section 9.14 Duplicate Originals, Counterparts . This Guaranty may be executed in any number of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. This Guaranty may be executed in several counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed an original instrument and all of which together shall constitute a single

Guaranty. The failure of any party hereto to execute this Guaranty, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other signatories from their obligations hereunder.

(a) No Holder may sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber, subparticipate or otherwise dispose of (each, a “Transfer ”) any interest in its Participation except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any assignee of an interest (an “Assignee”), as a condition to such Transfer, shall assume all of the obligations of the transferring Holder pursuant to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, and shall make the representations and warranties made by the initial Holder of such Participation pursuant to this Agreement, each with respect to the Percentage Share that it is purchasing.

(b) Lender shall only transfer its interest hereunder as permitted pursuant to Article XI of the Loan Agreement. A-2 Holder shall not transfer its interest hereunder without the consent of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Initial A-2 Holder shall be permitted to sell all or any portion of the Participation A-2 (such participation interest, the “ Subject Interest ”) to one or more Qualified Transferees. In no way limiting the foregoing, if Initial A-2 Holder wishes to sell the Subject Interest for a price that is below the par value of the Participation A-2 but not less than 85% of the par value of the Participation A-2, it shall be permitted to do so, provided Initial A-2 Holder shall first notify Lender thereof and shall grant Lender a period of ten (10) Business Days in which to offer to acquire the Subject Interest by delivering written notice thereof, which notice shall include the price Lender is offering to pay for such Subject Interest. If Initial A-2 Holder wishes to sell the Subject Interest to Lender at the price offered by Lender therefor, then Initial A-2 Holder shall sell, and Lender shall buy, the Subject Interest for such price within ten (10) Business Days thereafter. If Initial A-2 Holder does not wish to sell the Subject Interest to Lender at the price offered by Lender, then Participation Holder will have the right, for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter, to sell the Subject Interest to one or more Qualified Transferees for a price that is greater than the price offered by Lender. Following the expiration of such 30-day period, Initial A-2 Holder shall be required to re-offer the Subject Interest to Lender prior to any sale of such Subject Interest for a price that is below the par value of the Participation A-2 but not less than 85% of the par value of the Participation A-2. In addition, if Initial A-2 Holder wishes to sell the Subject Interest for a price that is less than 85% of the par value of the Participation A-2, it shall be permitted to do so, provided Initial A-2 Holder shall first enter into and deliver to Lender a binding agreement with an unaffiliated third-party Qualified Transferee for such sale (the “ Third Party Agreement ”), which Third Party Agreement shall be terminable in the event Lender exercises its right of first refusal described below with respect to such sale. Following its receipt of the Third Party Agreement, Lender shall have a period of ten (10) Business Days in which to offer to acquire the Subject Interest on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Agreement and, if Lender so elects, then Initial A-2 Holder shall sell, and Lender shall buy, the Subject Interest for the price set forth in the Third Party Agreement within ten (10) Business Days thereafter. If Lender does not wish to acquire the Subject Interest on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Agreement, then Initial A-2 Holder will have the right to sell the Subject Interest pursuant to the Third Party Agreement.

8.02 Certain Rights and Restrictions .

(a) Notwithstanding Section 8.01 , each of the Holders agrees that each Transfer to be made by such Holder is subject to the following restrictions: (i) all such Transfers shall be made upon prior written notice to Agent and the other Holders, and (ii) the transferor and transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement whereby such transferee is assigned and assumes all or a ratable portion, as the case may be, of the obligations of the transferring Holder hereunder with respect to its Participation from and after the date of such assignment (or, in the

case of a pledge, collateral assignment or other encumbrance of a Participation, solely as security for a loan to the related Holder, made by a third-party, whereby such Holder remains fully liable under this Agreement, such third party executes an agreement that such Holder shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the obligations of the related Holder hereunder on and after the date on which such Holder succeeds to the rights of the related Holder by foreclosure or otherwise).

(b) Upon the consummation of a Transfer by way of assignment of 100% of its Percentage Share of Participation, the transferee shall be a Holder with respect to the applicable Participation for all purposes under this Agreement with all of the rights, interests and obligations related thereto and the transferring Person shall be released from all liability arising under this Agreement with respect to the related Participation (or the portion thereof that was the subject of such Transfer), arising after the effective date of such Transfer.

(c) If a Holder Transfers by assignment less than 100% of its Percentage Share in a Participation, then the transferee shall be a Holder with respect to the applicable Participation for all purposes under this Agreement with all of the rights, interests and obligations related thereto except that no transferee that is a Related A-2 Holder shall have any right to vote on any decision, including any Unanimous Consent Decision or any other right or priority that, pursuant to this Agreement, is not granted to a Related A-2 Holder.
