Item 1.01      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 31, 2012, DSW Inc., an Ohio corporation (“DSW”), entered into an agreement of purchase and sale (the “Purchase Agreement”) with 4300 East Fifth Avenue LLC, an Ohio limited liability company, 4300 Venture 34910 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and 4300 Venture 6729 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each a “Seller” and collectively “Sellers”), pursuant to which DSW acquired on November 1, 2012 all of Sellers' ownership interest in 810 AC LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (the “Acquisition”). Prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Sellers transferred certain Properties (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) to 810 AC LLC, portions of which Properties were previously leased by DSW for its corporate office headquarters, its 700,000 square foot distribution center, and a trailer parking lot. DSW expects certain portions of the Properties to continue to be leased by third parties. As consideration for the Acquisition, DSW paid to Sellers an aggregate of $72 million, subject to credits and adjustments as provided in the Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not a complete description of all of the parties' rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated by reference.
On November 1, 2012, in connection with the completion of the Acquisition, 4300 East Fifth Avenue LLC and DSW's wholly owned subsidiary, 810 AC LLC, entered into a cost sharing agreement (the “Cost Sharing Agreement”) pursuant to which 810 AC LLC will contribute $3 million to the cost of replacing the roof of a building on the Properties. Also on November 1, 2012, 810 AC LLC and Schottenstein Property Group, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“SPG”), entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) pursuant to which SPG will provide management, operation, repair, maintenance, replacement, and supervision services with respect to the properties that are the subject of the Management Agreement, collect rent from other tenants, and provide other landlord services with respect to such tenants. SPG has previously managed the Properties. As compensation DSW will pay SPG 4% of rents collected from lessees of certain portions of the Properties, plus reimbursement for certain costs pursuant to the Management Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Cost Sharing Agreement and the Management Agreement is not a complete description of all of the parties' rights and obligations under these agreements and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Cost Sharing Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference, and the Management Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated by reference.
Each of the Sellers and Schottenstein Property Group, LLC is an affiliate of Schottenstein Stores Corporation (“SSC”), which has numerous material relationships with DSW. Following the Acquisition, DSW continues to lease office space from entities affiliated with SSC, and continues to purchase services and products from such entities. SSC is controlled by Jay L. Schottenstein, the executive chairman of DSW's board of directors, and Mr. Schottenstein and members of his family own a majority of the combined voting power of DSW's outstanding common shares. The audit committee of DSW's board of directors has reviewed and approved the Purchase Agreement, the Acquisition, the Cost Sharing Agreement, and the Management Agreement, consistent with DSW's related party transaction policy.
Item 1.02      Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

R E C I T A L S

A.
Sellers own fee simple title to various portions of the real property comprising approximately 164.929 acres located to the immediate north of East Fifth Avenue in Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio and commonly known as the Columbus International Aircenter (the “ Aircenter ”), which is depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and made a part hereof (the “ Site Plan ”).
B.
The real property owned by each Seller is identified by its existing tax parcel number listed on Exhibit “B”, attached hereto and made a part hereof.
C.
Sellers desire to transfer those portions of the Aircenter depicted on the Site Plan comprising the approximate 24.915 acre area of the Aircenter, the approximate 41.338 acre area of the Aircenter and the approximate 10.657 acre area of the Aircenter highlighted on the Site Plan as Building 4, Building 6 and the Trailer Lot (each a “ Property ” and collectively the “ Properties ”) to a newly formed limited liability company with common ownership to Sellers (“ SPE ”), as more particularly detailed in Section 6 below;
D.
Buyer desires, upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth, to purchase all of the membership interest in the SPE from Sellers.
E.
This Agreement shall be construed as one agreement, between Buyer and each of the Sellers and, upon formation SPE, with respect to that portion of the Properties owned by each such Seller, individually. Any reference to “ Tenants ” or “ Leases ” refers to the Tenants or Leases of a particular Seller. Any reference to “ Permitted Exceptions ” (as hereinafter defined) refers to the Permitted Exceptions of a particular Property. Any reference to “ Land ” refers to the real property of a Property. Each Seller contracts only with respect to that portion of the Properties owned by such Seller. The term “ Property ” may sometimes refer to “ Properties ”.
F.
The date that a fully executed original of this Agreement is delivered to Buyer, signed by Sellers, Buyer and Escrow Agent and with all exhibits attached thereto, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Date” and such date shall be the date of this Agreement.






NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and incorporating the foregoing Recitals herein in their entirety, each Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

1. Sale and Purchase of Property . Upon transfer of all of Seller’s right title and interest in the Properties to SPE, Seller will sell to Buyer and Buyer will purchase from Seller, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the SPE. The term “Property” as used in this Agreement shall mean the following: (a) the Land; (b) all right, title and interest of each Seller in and to any buildings or other improvements situate on its Land (the “ Improvements ”), except as set forth in Article 19 below; (c) all right, title and interest of each Seller in and to all easements, rights of way, development rights, riparian rights, privileges, appurtenances and other rights pertaining to its Land and the Improvements; (d) all right, title and interest of each Seller, if any, in and to fixtures, machinery, equipment, articles of personal property and improvements in the nature of personal property attached or appurtenant to, or located on or used in connection with the use or operation of its Land or the Improvements (the “ Personal Property ”), except as set forth in Article 19 below; (e) each Seller’s interest as landlord under the leases, and any other agreements to occupy all or a portion of its Property, which are listed on Exhibits “C-1” through “C-3”, attached hereto (collectively, the “ Leases ”); (f) all right, title and interest of each Seller, if any, in and to any warranties, guarantees, service contracts and permits to which each Seller is a party or as to which it has the benefit, relating to its Property, to the extent assignable; and (g) an easement to maintain signage at the northeast corner of the intersection of Aircenter Drive and Stelzer Road to be transferred at Closing as set forth in Article 20 below. Seller is not transferring to the SPE any rights of ingress and egress to and from the Properties over and across any easement areas on the adjacent property of Seller or on the property of the Columbus Regional Airport Authority other than the one taxiway adjacent to the Trailer Lot.
2.      Purchase Price and Payment .
(a)      The aggregate purchase price for the membership interest in the SPE is the sum of Seventy-two Million Dollars ($72,000,000.00) (the “ Purchase Price ”).
(b)      The Purchase Price is payable in full at Closing, subject to such credits and adjustments as are herein provided, shall be payable by one or more wire transfers of good and immediately available federal funds to Sellers or as Sellers may direct. Sellers shall jointly instruct Buyer and Escrow Agent at least ten (10) days before Closing as to the allocation of the Purchase Price among themselves.
3.      Closing . The transfer of the Properties to the SPE will occur immediately prior to Closing as set forth in Section 6. The closing of the transfer of the membership interest in the SPE (the “ Closing ”) shall be consummated, if at all, pursuant to an escrow procedure reasonably acceptable to Seller and Buyer (using Hummel Title Agency as the escrow agent), on or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on or before the later of (a) fifteen (15) days after confirmation that all approvals have been obtained in order to subdivide the Properties into




the tax parcels depicted on Exhibit “A” (See Section 6) and (b) thirty (30) days after the Due Diligence Date (such date of Closing or any other date of Closing on which Seller and Buyer mutually agree, hereinafter, the “ Closing Date ”), but in no event later than November 5, 2012.

4.      Title .

(a)      The Properties may be transferred to the SPE subject to the following matters (the “ Permitted Exceptions ”):
(i)      Zoning regulations and ordinances, building codes, environmental protection laws, regulations and ordinances and other applicable local, state, county or federal legal and governmental requirements;
(ii)      Easements, conditions, restrictions and other title matters which Buyer does not object to as a Title Defect in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(b) below;
(iii)      Any state of facts which a current accurate survey of the Property may show and to which Buyer does not object as a Title Defect in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(b) below;
(iv)      The Leases and the rights of the Tenants thereunder;
(v)      The lien of current real estate taxes, water and sewer charges or taxes, not yet due and payable, apportioned as provided for in this Agreement or which are required to be paid by a Tenant directly pursuant to its Lease (except as to Buyer) and are not delinquent; and
(vi)      Any Title Defect (defined below) resulting from the acts or omissions of Buyer, its agents, contractors and employees.
The provisions of this section which relate to the obligation of Buyer to accept ownership of the SPE are subject to the SPE holding fee simple title to the Properties, subject to the foregoing matters in Section 4(a) above. The foregoing matters shall survive Closing, whether or not such matters are specifically recited in the deed to the SPE.

(b)      (i)    Seller has, at Seller’s expense, obtained and caused to be delivered to Buyer or Buyer’s attorney from Hummel Title Agency, as agent for First American Title Insurance Company (the “ Title Company ”), an owner’s title commitment to insure title to the Property, together with copies of any documents constituting exceptions to title as listed in such title commitment (collectively, the “ Title Report ”). A copy of the Title Report has been delivered by the Title Company to Schottenstein Property Group, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“ Seller’s Agent ”). If the Title Report reveals a defect of title other than the Permitted Exceptions which Buyer deems objectionable (any of the foregoing, a “ Title Defect ”, and collectively, “ Title Defects ”), Buyer shall give written notice to Seller’s Agent or to Seller’s attorney of its specific objection to any such Title Defects (“ Buyer’s Objection Notice ”), within forty-five (45) days of the Effective Date (the “ Title Review Period ”).




The failure by Buyer to deliver to Seller’s Agent or Seller’s attorney the Buyer’s Objection Notice within the Title Review Period shall constitute a waiver by Buyer of any and all title matters of record shown on the Title Report; such title matters of record shall automatically then become Permitted Exceptions and Buyer shall purchase the Properties subject to such Permitted Exceptions; provided in no event shall liens for the payment of money (other than non-delinquent real estate taxes and assessments and liens created by Buyer) be deemed Permitted Exceptions.
The Title Company shall agree to provide a tax endorsement (CTA 05) to the title insurance policy to be issued at Closing, at Buyer’s option and expense.

(i)      Except as otherwise set forth herein, Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, cure at or prior to the Closing any Title Defect as to which Buyer timely objected to in Buyer’s Objection Notice. Seller’s Agent or Seller’s attorney shall advise Buyer as to whether Seller will cure all such Title Defects by giving Buyer written notice thereof (“ Seller’s Notice ”) within ten (10) days of receipt of Buyer’s Objection Notice, provided in any event Seller shall cure any lien for the payment of money (except for non-delinquent real estate taxes and assessments and liens created by Buyer). If Seller fails to deliver Seller’s Notice to Buyer within such ten (10) day period, Seller shall be deemed to have given notice that it elects not to cause any Title Defects to be cured, except liens for the payment of money which Seller shall have the obligation to cure or bond off, except for non-delinquent real estate taxes and assessments and liens created by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall cure at or prior to Closing any lien which is the result of Seller’s voluntary actions (by way of example, but not by way of limitation, all mortgages placed on the Properties by Seller). Buyer may object to any Title Defects arising between the expiration of the Title Review Period and the Closing Date and any Title Defects arising between delivery of the Title Report and the expiration of the Title Review Period but not identified to Buyer ( “Late Defects” ), other than those arising from the acts or omissions of Buyer, its agents, contractors and employees. Seller shall not be obligated to cure any encumbrances not resulting from Seller’s acts or omissions which are the responsibility of a Tenant to cure under its Lease, or entered into with the express written consent of Buyer, but Seller shall advise Buyer in Seller's Notice or within ten (10) days of notice of same whether Seller desires to cure same or, failing to so respond, Sellers shall be deemed to have elected not to cure same.
(ii)      If (a) Seller in Seller’s Notice indicates that Seller is unwilling or unable to clear or cure at or prior to Closing any specified Title Defect (other than the Title Defects which Seller is expressly obligated to cure under subsection (i) or (ii)) or (b) if Seller is deemed to elect not to cure or (c) if Seller fails to provide notice that it will cure any Late Defects within ten (10) days of notice of same, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on notice to Seller given within three (3) Business Days after receipt of Seller’s Notice or Seller’s deemed election. If Buyer shall not elect to terminate this Agreement within three (3) Business Days after receipt of Seller’s Notice or Seller’s deemed election, then such Title Defects shall thereupon become Permitted Exceptions under this Agreement and at the Closing Buyer shall accept title subject to such Title Defect(s), without




reduction of, or any credit or allowance against the Purchase Price and without any other liability on the part of Seller.
(c)      If, on the Closing Date, there are any Title Defects which Seller is obligated hereunder to pay and discharge, Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy the same, provided Seller shall simultaneously either deliver to Buyer or the Title Company at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to satisfy such Title Defects of record together with the costs of recording or filing said instruments or, provided that Seller has made arrangements with the Title Company at or before the Closing and Buyer reasonably approves of same, Seller shall deposit with the Title Company sufficient monies or other items to insure the obtaining and recording of such satisfactions and/or the issuance of title insurance to Buyer either free of any such Title Defects, or with insurance against enforcement or collection of same out of the Property, in which case such Title Defects shall be omitted from the Title Report and policy. The existence of any such Title Defects shall not be deemed objections to title if Seller shall comply with the foregoing requirements, and Buyer has consented to same.
5.      Due Diligence Period .

(a)      Within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller’s Agent shall provide to Buyer to review and/or copy at the Seller’s Agent’s office, copies of the following (the “ Property Documents ”):
(iii)      All leases, lease amendments and addenda affecting the Properties, a current rent roll or rolls therefore showing all delinquencies or arrearages and a payment history for the previous three years from each Tenant (except Buyer);
(iv)      All licenses, permits and warranties regarding the Properties, and all notices, extensions, correspondence or other documentation regarding the same;
(v)      To the extent not already listed herein and to the extent in Seller’s or Seller’s Agent’s possession, all agreements and any other documents concerning the Properties, including any construction contracts, property tax bills, management agreements and agreements for the provision of services or goods;
(vi)      To the extent in Seller’s or Seller’s Agent’s possession, all plans, surveys, drawings and specifications of the improvements, including without limitation of the buildings, utilities, underground facilities, roofs, bridges, tunnels on the Properties or connecting the Properties and the public facilities; and
(vii)      Any engineering and architectural studies in Seller’s or Seller’s Agent’s possession or control regarding the Properties; and
(viii)      Any environmental reports in Seller’s or Seller’s Agent’s possession or control regarding the Properties, and any summaries of same;




(ix)      Any notices from any governmental entity received by Seller or Seller’s Agent regarding the use, operation, construction, maintenance, or other concern of or with the Properties, or any of them; and
(x)      Three years of actual expenses for the Properties, showing all of Seller or Seller’s Agent’s costs of maintaining, operating, repairing, cleaning, replacing, insuring, landscaping, owning (provided mortgage payments may be omitted) the Properties, including tax and utility payments, and all income from or allocated to the Properties.
(xi)      A schedule of all security deposits in Seller’s possession for the Property.
Seller hereby represents to Buyer that the Property Documents are, to Seller’s knowledge but without additional inquiry, true, complete (in all material respects) and accurate copies of the documents in their possession and control. Any reliance on the substance of the materials beyond such representations is at the sole risk of Buyer.

(b)      Buyer shall until the later of forty-five (45) days from the Effective Date at 5:00 p.m. EDT (the “ Due Diligence Period ”) in which to review the Property Documents and inspect the Properties in order to ascertain whether the Properties are acceptable to Buyer. During the Due Diligence Period, Buyer, its agents, employees and authorized independent contractors, shall have the right, subject to the rights of the Tenants under the Leases, to inspect the Properties and make such surveys, assessments, and tests as Buyer may reasonably deem necessary. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection with such assessments and investigations at no cost or expense to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not perform any intrusive tests or inspections which can damage any portion of the Properties without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned and delayed. In exercising its rights under this Article 5, Buyer shall not contact any Tenant without giving Seller advance notice thereof reasonably sufficient to allow Seller an opportunity to participate in such conversation or meeting, nor shall Buyer materially interfere in any way with any Tenant’s access, use or occupancy of the Properties, nor shall Buyer interfere otherwise with the normal operation, use, occupancy, management or maintenance of the Properties. Buyer shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend Seller from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, proceedings, judgments, damages, losses, liabilities, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) (collectively, " Liabilities ") arising from or relating to Buyer’s due diligence or to any entry onto the Properties (or actions thereon) during or after the Due Diligence Period by Buyer, its employees, agents, and contractors, including, without limitation, Liabilities relating to personal injury, property damage and mechanic's liens. The provisions of this section shall survive the Closing and the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever. Buyer may, at any time, provide Seller written notice that Buyer has waived the right to terminate under this Article 5 and the date that Seller receives such notice shall be deemed the expiration of the Due Diligence Period.




(c)      If for any reason whatsoever, or no reason at all, Buyer determines during the Due Diligence Period in its sole and absolute discretion that Buyer does not wish to purchase the Properties, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as to all of the Properties by written notice to Seller given on or prior to the date of expiration of the Due Diligence Period, time being of the essence with respect to such notice . If Buyer shall timely give such termination notice, then Seller and Buyer shall be released from all further liability under this Agreement, except for those obligations which specifically survive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(d)      If Buyer shall fail to give notice of termination to Seller pursuant to Section 5(c) prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then it shall be conclusively deemed that Buyer has waived its right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Article 5, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived as a condition to Closing all matters which were or could have been the subject of inspection or assessment during the Due Diligence Period (including, without limitation, any environmental matters), and on the Closing Date, Buyer shall purchase the Property in its " as-is " condition at the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (except as provided in Section 6 below) with all faults as of such date, subject to normal wear and tear between the end of the Due Diligence Period and the Closing Date. Buyer hereby acknowledges that except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Seller has not made and does not make any representations or warranties whatsoever, express and implied, concerning the Property and Buyer may only rely on the express representations and warranties of Seller set forth herein.
(e)      Buyer acknowledges that all information in respect of the Properties either furnished to Buyer or obtained by Buyer or its attorneys, partners, members, accountants, lenders or investors is obtained and has been so furnished on the condition that Buyer maintain the confidentiality thereof. Accordingly, Buyer shall hold in strict confidence and not disclose to any other party, subject to the remainder of this Section 5, without the prior written consent of Seller until the Closing shall have been consummated, any of the information in respect of the Properties (including, without limitation, the Property Documents) delivered by Seller to or obtained by or on behalf of Buyer or any of its agents, representatives or employees. Even after the Closing, neither Buyer nor Seller shall disclose the Purchase Price for the Properties subject to the remainder of this Section 5. In the event the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated, Buyer shall promptly return to Seller all originals and any copies Buyer made of the Property Documents without retaining any copy thereof or extract therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein set forth, either party may disclose any of the foregoing information (i) to its employees, officers and directors or members of professional firms serving it in connection with this transaction, and (ii) as any governmental agency may require in order to comply with applicable laws or regulations (including to the public if required by securities or related law or regulations), and (iii) as required in connection with any existing credit relationships or any proposed financing. The provisions of this section shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
(f)      Seller shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Buyer estoppel certificates from each Tenant under a Lease for any portion of the Property (except




Buyer) confirming (a) the Lease documentation; (b) that the Lease is in full force and effect; (c) that neither party is in default under the Lease and no condition has occurred that with notice or passage of time or both would become a default; and (d) the date to which Base Rent has been paid.
6.      Lot Split . Seller has, at its sole cost, prior to execution hereof, obtained lot split approval to subdivide that portion of the Properties which is part of a larger tax parcel. In connection therewith, Buyer and Seller acknowledge that Seller is required to separate the domestic water service for the Properties from the domestic water service benefitting any other property. Seller shall commence, at its sole cost, upon full execution hereof, and thereafter prosecute with due diligence, to separate the domestic water service (and to the extent required by any governmental authority for the subdivision of the Properties from Seller’s remaining property, any other utility) for the Properties from the domestic water service benefitting any other property (as depicted in Exhibit A) (the “Utility Separation Work”). Any Utility Separation Work on the Properties and any change from the configuration shown on Exhibit “A” required in order to obtain such lot splits shall be subject to Buyer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. All Utility Separation Work which has not been performed prior to Closing shall be performed by Seller after Closing and one hundred percent (100%) of the cost to complete such Utility Separation Work shall be escrowed at Closing. Seller shall exercise good faith efforts and shall work diligently to complete the Utility Separation Work within sixty (60) days after Closing.

Upon obtaining the lot split approval, Seller shall, at its sole cost, transfer fee title to the Properties into a newly formed, Ohio limited liability company special purpose entity (“ SPE ”) under the name “810 AC LLC”. In the event Seller elects an exemption from transfer taxes in connection with the transfer of the Properties to the SPE and a later third party claim is filed alleging that the transfer of the Properties to the SPE was not exempt, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and the SPE from such claim, including any transfer taxes assessed on the transfer to the SPE. Seller shall, at its cost, defend Buyer and Seller from such claim by legal counsel reasonably approved by Buyer. The documents for the creation of such entity shall be drafted by Seller and approved by Buyer prior to creation. The SPE shall be wholly controlled by Seller until Closing and the SPE shall be able to make the representations contained in Section 8(e) below. Seller shall be responsible for any and all transfer costs or expenses in connection with the transfer of the membership interests in the SPE to Buyer or its designee.

(a)      Real estate taxes and/or other taxes and water and sewer rates, charges and rents (paid on the basis of frontage rather than meter) shall be prorated on the basis of the lien year for which assessed, as determined by the latest available billings. If the Closing shall occur before the tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of real estate taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year, plus any approved milages (whether or not certified) applied to the latest assessed valuation. Upon receipt of a final, unappealable determination of the real estate taxes for the year including closing, the parties shall re-prorate taxes. The apportionment shall be final unless a third party or Board of Revision action for reassessment for lien year 2012 (“Appeal”) is initiated on or before March 31, 2013. Buyer shall inform Seller of any Appeal in which case the taxes will be apportioned on or before the earlier of the 60 th day after a final unappealed decision on the Appeal or the fifth anniversary of the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment of real estate taxes for and with respect to amounts payable by Tenants under the Leases directly to the applicable governmental authority.
(b)      Assessments which are a lien on the date hereof shall be paid in full by Seller whether or not they are payable in installments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment of assessments for and with respect to amounts payable by Tenants under the Leases directly to the applicable governmental authority.




(c)      Water and sewer service, telephone, data lines and other utilities as measured by existing meters and submeters and which are not directly paid by the Tenants, apportioned on the basis of the last available reading taken (provided Seller shall request that utility providers take meter readings within three (3) days prior to the Closing Date). If any such charges are required to be paid by Tenants, such charges and rents shall not be apportioned and the lien, if any, of such charges and sewer service shall not be an objection to title provided the Tenant has been billed for and is not in default in the payment of same. Buyer and Seller acknowledge that electricity and gas are metered and submetered by Seller to the various Tenants and other tenants of Seller. As described below, these amounts shall be collected by Seller pursuant to the Management Agreement and allocated within the Aircenter as provided in the REA (each as described below).
(d)      Base or fixed rents due from Tenants under the Leases, real estate taxes (or escalations thereof) (not payable directly by Tenants to the taxing authority), insurance premiums and all other sums payable by the Tenants under the Leases to the landlord thereunder (collectively, “ Receivables ”) received prior to Closing shall be apportioned on the basis of the period for which the same is payable and if, as and when collected, as follows: (i) first , to payment of the current Receivables then due for the month in which the Closing Date occurs, which amount shall be apportioned between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date; (ii) second , to Receivables first coming due after Closing and applicable to the period of time after Closing, which amount shall be retained by Buyer; (iii) third , to payment of Receivables first coming due after Closing but applicable to the period of time before Closing, which amount shall be delivered to Seller. Seller shall notify at closing of any Receivables which were due and payable as of Closing but not collected by Seller as of Closing and not associated with the lease between Buyer and Seller for the Property (collectively, “ Delinquent Receivables ”). Buyer shall make a good faith effort to collect Delinquent Receivables and forward all amounts collected to Seller. Seller may pursue the collection of any Delinquent Receivables if Buyer has not collected same commencing six (6) months after closing and for a period of six months thereafter, however, Seller shall have no right to cause or threaten any such tenant to be evicted or to exercise any other “landlord” remedy (as set forth in such Tenant’s Lease) against such tenant other than to sue for collection. Any sums received by Buyer to which Seller is entitled shall be held in trust for Seller on account of such amounts payable to Seller, and Buyer shall remit to Seller any such sums received by Buyer to which Seller is entitled within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof less reasonable, actual costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and disbursements, if any. Any sums received by Seller to which Buyer is entitled shall be held in trust for Buyer and Seller expressly agrees that if Seller receives any amounts after the Closing Date which are attributable, in whole or in part, to any period after the Closing Date, Seller shall remit to Buyer that portion of the moneys so received by Seller to which Buyer is entitled within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
Seller has not and will not make any representations or warranties whatsoever to Buyer as to any future rent roll as to any Property, nor does Seller represent or warrant that at Closing any or all Tenants will be current in the payment of rent or otherwise in compliance with




their leases, and Buyer’s obligations to close the acquisition of any Property pursuant to this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon any such matters, provided the foregoing is not intended to diminish any of Buyer’s rights hereunder.

(e)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, real estate taxes and insurance charges (and common area maintenance expenses, if any) reimbursable by Tenants (“ Tenant Reimbursable Expenses ”) shall be prorated at Closing in the manner set forth in this subsection (e). Seller shall be responsible for all Tenant Reimbursable Expenses apportionable to the period prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer shall be responsible for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses apportionable to the period from and after the Closing Date). At least five (5) business days prior to Closing, Seller will prepare a draft reconciliation as of the Closing Date of the amounts of all billings and charges for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses for the Property. If more amounts have been expended for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses applicable to those portions of the Properties which are leased on a triple net basis than have been collected from Tenants for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses who operate on such a basis, Buyer will pay such difference to Seller at Closing as an addition to the Purchase Price. If more amounts have been collected from Tenants for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses than have been expended for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses applicable to Tenants of space leased on a triple net basis, Seller will pay to Buyer at Closing as a credit against the Purchase Price such excess collected amount. In the event that any reconciliation is due any Tenant pursuant to an annual reconciliation clause in such Tenant’s lease, then Seller shall prepare, pursuant to the Management Agreement, such reconciliation and shall equitably adjust the charges therefore taking into account the closing adjustments for Tenant Reimbursable Expenses.
(f)      All unapplied security deposits under the Leases (if any), with interest if applicable, shall be credited against the Purchase Price. From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall have sole liability and responsibility for such security deposits.
(g)      Seller shall pay all state and local transfer taxes and all recording costs for any deed of trust reconveyances, lien releases and lien terminations. Seller shall also pay the title insurance costs for an ALTA (standard coverage) owner’s title insurance policy in the amount of the Purchase Price. Buyer shall pay all additional title insurance costs for an ALTA (extended coverage) owner’s title insurance policy, and the costs incurred in connection with obtaining any title endorsements, including tax endorsements. Each party shall pay one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees charged by the Escrow Agent at Closing to handle the Closing in escrow. Each party shall pay its own attorney’s fees. Any other closing costs and expenses shall be borne and paid in accordance with standard custom for similar transactions in the municipality of the Property.
If any of the items described in this Article 11 cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of information as to the amounts which are to be apportioned or otherwise, or are incorrectly apportioned at Closing or subsequent thereto, such items shall be apportioned or reapportioned, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date or the date such error is discovered, as applicable, but in no event shall any




such apportionment or reapportionment occur later than eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (except real estate taxes which are the subject of an active appeal), and the proper party shall be promptly reimbursed.

The obligations of the parties under this Article 11 shall survive the Closing for one (1) year (and with respect to real estate taxes the subject of an active appeal, until the earlier of sixty (60) days after a final unappealed decision or five (5) years after closing).

12.      Casualty .

(a)      If prior to Closing any Property is damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller shall estimate the cost to repair and the time required to complete repairs and will provide Buyer written notice of Seller’s estimate (the “ Casualty Notice ”) as soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence of the casualty.
(b)      In the event of any damage to or destruction of the Properties or any portion thereof prior to Closing which permits any Tenant of the Property to terminate its Lease, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of the Casualty Notice. In the event Buyer does not elect to terminate, and in the event of any damage to or destruction of the Properties or any portion thereof prior to Closing which does not permit any Tenant of the Property to terminate its Lease, the parties shall proceed under this Agreement and close on the earlier of the date otherwise scheduled for Closing or fifteen (15) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Casualty Notice. At Closing, Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s rights in and to any resulting insurance proceeds due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and shall pay over to Buyer all amounts theretofore received by Seller in connection with such casualty and the deductible associated with such insurance, in each case, net of Seller’s reasonable costs incurred in restoring the Properties, and Buyer shall assume full responsibility for all needed remaining repairs. Seller shall have no obligation to repair or restore the Properties.
(c)      The provisions of this Article 12 supersede the provisions of any applicable statutory or decisional law with respect to the subject matter of such Article.
13.      Condemnation . In the event Seller shall receive prior to the Closing a notice given by any public authority of a taking of all or any portion of the Properties for any public or quasi‑public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain or by private purchase in lieu thereof (any of the foregoing, a “ Taking ”), Seller shall promptly notify Buyer thereof in writing, containing all material terms of such Taking, including without limitation the amount and location of the land subject to the Taking, the proposed pricing, the timing and the public use. Buyer may, within ten (10) days of receipt of Seller’s notice of such Taking, terminate this Agreement. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this transaction will be consummated as described herein and any award or settlement payable with respect to such Taking will be paid or assigned to Buyer upon the Closing.

14.      Default .





(a)      Buyer's Default . In the event the Buyer fails or refuses to consummate the purchase of the Properties in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for any reason constituting a default on the part of Buyer, then this Agreement may be terminated by Seller and (i) Buyer shall reimburse Seller for Sellers’ out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement; and (ii) Buyer shall also remain liable for the performance of any indemnity given under the express provisions of this Agreement. Buyer shall not be deemed in default hereunder until and unless Seller has given written notice of Buyer’s failure to comply with the terms hereof and Buyer does not thereafter cure such failure within the later of five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice or the Closing Date.
(b)      Seller's Default. In the event the Sellers fail to consummate the sale of the Properties in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for any reason constituting a default on the part of Seller, then Buyer may, as its sole remedy (to the exclusion of all other remedies, both legal and equitable) elect to either (i) accept title to such Properties subject to the defaulted obligation of Seller, without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Agreement and Seller shall pay to Buyer One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000,00), or (iii) bring an action against Sellers for specific performance of this Agreement. Buyer and Seller agree that Buyer’s damages in the event of a Seller default hereunder are difficult to determine and that One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) is a reasonable estimate thereof. Sellers shall not be deemed in default hereunder until and unless Buyer has given written notice of Seller’s failure to comply with the terms hereof and Sellers do not thereafter cure such failure within the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice; or (ii) the Closing Date.
15.      Broker . Seller and Buyer represent and warrant to the other that they have not dealt with any broker in this transaction.

17.      Management Agreement . The parties agree to enter into a management agreement at the Closing substantially in the form attached hereto, providing for Seller’s Agent to continue to operate, repair, maintain, replace (as necessary) and insure the common areas (the non-building portions of the Properties) of the 65.9 acre Property and the systems described on Exhibit “G” which systems are located on the Properties and impact the operation of other portions of the Aircenter, to collect and remit rentals from the Tenants (except Buyer) of the Property, and to budget for and reconcile budgets for the same. It is




the intent of the parties that those portions of the Aircenter that Sellers and parties related to Sellers continue to own after the Closing shall be operated, repaired and maintained in a uniform, integrated manner with the 65.9 acre Property. During the Due Diligence Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) providing for such continued operation, repair, maintenance, and replacement of the common areas and collection of rents by Seller’s Agent for a term of three (3) years from and after the Closing Date, renewable upon the agreement of the parties, subject to the right of either party thereto to terminate the term thereof on sixty (60) days prior written notice to the other. The parties agree that all costs incurred in connection with the duties to be performed under the Management Agreement shall be billed to the parties based upon the total acreage of their respective properties which are subject to the Management Agreement, calculated at the cost of such services plus four percent (4%) of all rents collected. All costs shall be subject to audit by Buyer. The parties shall exercise good faith efforts to negotiate the provisions of the proposed Management Agreement prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period.

18.      Assignment . Buyer shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Properties to a limited liability company or other entity controlled by Buyer, by giving notice thereof to Seller at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, together with delivery on or before the Closing Date of an assignment and assumption agreement pursuant to which the assignee shall assume all obligations of Buyer under this Agreement. Buyer shall not be released from any obligations under this Agreement upon such assignment. Except for the foregoing, Buyer shall not have the right to assign this Agreement and any such assignment shall be void.

19.      Reciprocal Easement Agreement . Buyer and Sellers agree that the Aircenter is presently encumbered by a Declaration of Restrictions and Easements, dated October 17, 1997 and recorded as Instrument 199710170122036, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (the “ Declaration ”) providing for utility easements, and common parking, access, ingress and egress as to the non-building areas of the Aircenter, as more fully described and provided for in the Declaration. Buyer and Sellers agree to execute and record an amendment to the Declaration (“ REA ”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “H” to be entered into by the parties at Closing expanding on the terms and conditions of the Declaration so that the common areas of the Aircenter shall continue to be operated as an integrated property for purposes of access, ingress and egress, utilities, architectural harmony, signage and the existing overhead bridge as agreed below. The REA shall address ownership, maintenance and operation of the various portions of the utility systems located on the Properties which serve portions of the Aircenter besides the Properties as well as the fire suppression system serving the Properties and the remainder of the Aircenter. Seller is solely responsible for all costs associated with the Lot Split as described in Section 6 above. Therefore, Seller shall determine the utility and other work necessary for the Lot Split and notify Buyer thereof. The REA shall permit either party to remove the Bridge and otherwise further separate the utilities at such party’s cost and provided adequate service is maintained to all other portions of the Aircenter and upon approval of the other party thereto. The parties




shall exercise good faith efforts to negotiate the provisions of the proposed REA prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period.

20.      Signage Easement . At Closing Seller shall quitclaim to Buyer all of Seller’s rights to use, operate and maintain the existing DSW signage at the intersection of Stelzer Road and Aircenter Drive (the “ Signage Easement ”). Seller may retain its right to its own identification on the existing signage. The Signage Easement shall run with title to the Properties for so long as Seller, its successors or assigns have such rights in such signage. Buyer shall be responsible for maintaining, repairing and replacing its signage pursuant to the Signage Easement and the landscaping of the Signage Easement area shall be maintained by Seller at the shared cost of Buyer and Seller in proportion to their agreed representation.

21.      No Recording by Buyer . Neither Buyer nor Seller shall record this Agreement, any memorandum of this Agreement, nor any instrument relating to this Agreement except as required by law in connection with a lis pendens in the event of default. Any such unpermitted recording shall, at the other party’s option, constitute a default by the recording party under this Agreement. In addition to other rights and remedies, upon any such recording, the non-defaulting party Seller shall have the right to cancel this Agreement.

22.      Miscellaneous .

(a)      This Agreement embodies and constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated herein, and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, representations and statements, oral or written, are merged into this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set forth in such instrument.
(b)      This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio. Any action or proceeding instituted concerning this Agreement shall be brought in the state courts located in the county in Ohio where the Properties are located, and Seller and Buyer irrevocably submit themselves to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts.
(c)      This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective administrators, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.
(d)      The headings preceding the text of the paragraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement, nor affect its meaning, construction or effect.




(e)      This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
(f)      The acceptance and recordation of the deeds by Buyer shall be deemed an acknowledgment by Buyer that Seller has fully complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement, that Seller is discharged therefrom and that Seller shall have no further obligation or liability with respect to any of the agreements made by Seller in this Agreement, except for those provisions which expressly survive the Closing.
(g)      The submission of this document for examination and negotiation does not constitute an offer to sell or an option to buy the Properties and this document shall become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery by Seller and Buyer.
(h)      Seller and Buyer are business entities having substantial experience with the subject matter of this Agreement and have each fully participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Accordingly, this Agreement shall be construed without regard to the rule that ambiguities in a document are to be construed against the drafter.
(i)      If the expiration of any period or the occurrence of any date referred to in this Agreement would occur on a day which is other than a Business Day, then such period shall be deemed to be expired on and such date shall be postponed to the first Business Day occurring thereafter. The term “ Business Day ” shall mean a day of the week other than Saturday, Sunday or legal holidays on which banking institutions or state government offices in Ohio are authorized or required to close.
(j)      If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable as against any Person or under certain circumstances, the remainder of this Agreement and the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby. Each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(k)    If Buyer is required by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental entity to restate or recast its earnings for periods prior to Closing due to the purchase of the SPE, Sellers and their parent entities and management affiliates shall cooperate by providing all financial information regarding valuations (for tax and accounting basis purposes), ownership, operation, maintenance, management, rentals, financing, depreciation, taxes, insurance, and any other information necessary promptly upon request for up to the past five (5) years. Seller acknowledges that Buyer may be required to restate or recast earnings (A) by quarter for the past two years on or before 40 days after the end of Buyer’s fiscal quarter containing the Closing; (B) by year for the years 2008-2012 by April 3 and in accordance with a planned mid-March earnings statement. The penalty for failure to timely file these restatements and/or recastings could be significant. Thus Seller covenants to work diligently with Buyer to provide any information requested by Buyer in as quickly as is reasonably practicable and with respect to the annual data on or before January 30, 2013,




however given the size of the job, the timeline for performing same and the lack of payment, Seller hereby disclaims any warranty of accuracy in the information provided.

COST SHARING AGREEMENT


This Cost Sharing Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this 30th day of October, 2012, by and between 810 AC LLC (“810”), an Ohio limited liability company, and 4300 East Fifth Avenue LLC (“4300”), an Ohio limited liability company.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, 810 has acquired the real estate located at 810 Aircenter Drive, Columbus, Ohio (“Building 4”) and 4150 East Fifth Avenue, Columbus, Ohio (“Building 6” and collectively with Building 4, the “Property”) from 4300 or a related entity to 4300; and

WHEREAS, the roof of Building 6 is in need of replacement; and

WHEREAS, the domestic water service on the Property currently serves other property owned by an entity related to 4300 in addition to the Property and must be separated as a condition to 810’s acquisition of the Property; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed to perform and share the cost of the Roof Replacement on the terms and conditions contained herein.

TERMS

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree to the foregoing Recitals and as follows:

1.    4300 will replace the roof of Building 6 (the “Roof Replacement”) in accordance with the scope of work attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A and any terms, conditions, specifications or other requirements to obtain a building permit, final approval or warranty for such work (collectively, the “Scope”). 810 may request at any time that the Scope be modified, amended, clarified or upgraded (“Change Order”). Within ten (10) business days after any such request, 4300 shall provide the costs and delays (if any) associated with such Change Order to 810. 810 shall agree to accept such costs and delays in writing within five (5) business days thereafter or shall be deemed to have elected to waive such Change Order request. Upon acceptance of the costs and delays associated with any Change Order by 810, 4300 shall perform the Roof Replacement in accordance with such Change Order.

2.    4300, at its sole cost, will separate the domestic water lines serving Building 7 and the remainder of the Air Center from the domestic water lines serving Building 6 and/or Building 4 and provide evidence thereof to 810.

3.    During the Roof Replacement, 4300 shall inspect and evaluate the performance of the Roof Replacement contractor in compliance with good construction practices, and 810 and its


4204220v2


subcontractors shall be permitted the right to inspect and evaluate the work for compliance with the Scope and good and workmanlike construction. 810 shall note any discrepancies between the work performed and the Scope (or good and workmanlike construction) to 4300 and 4300 shall cause the contractor to remedy such discrepancies at the contractor’s sole cost. Each party shall pay their own costs of inspection and evaluation of the Roof Replacement; 4300 shall cause the contractor to remedy any deficiencies identified at the contractor’s cost.

4.    a.    So long as no lien has been filed in connection with the Roof Replacement that has not been released, 810 shall pay to 4300 $750,000 within ten (10) days after delivery to 810 of (a) a certificate from the contractor performing the Roof Replacement that the Roof Replacement is at least twenty-five percent (25%) complete; and (b) a lien waiver from such contractor evidencing payment of such amount (or more).

b.    So long as no lien has been filed in connection with the Roof Replacement that has not been released, 810 shall pay to 4300 $750,000 within ten (10) days after delivery to 810 of (a) a certificate from the contractor performing the Roof Replacement that the Roof Replacement is at least fifty percent (50%) complete; and (b) a lien waiver from such contractor evidencing payment of such amount (or more).

c.    So long as no lien has been filed or threatened in connection with the Roof Replacement that has not been released, 810 shall pay to 4300 $750,000 within ten (10) days after delivery to 810 of (a) a certificate from the contractor performing the Roof Replacement that the Roof Replacement is seventy-five percent (75%) complete; and (b) a lien waiver from such contractor evidencing payment of such amount (or more).

d.    Within ten (10) days after 4300 has provided to 810: (1) the warranty described on Exhibit A; (2) a lien waiver from the general contractor performing the Roof Replacement and an AIA affidavit confirming that it has paid all subcontractors providing work in connection with the Roof Replacement; (3) lien waivers from any subcontractor that provided a Notice of Furnishing to 810 or requested a copy of the Notice of Commencement in connection with the Roof Replacement; (4) lien releases from any contractor who filed a lien in connection with the Roof Replacement; and (5) a certificate of occupancy or other confirmation from the City of Columbus that the Roof Replacement was performed in accordance with law; and (6) confirmation from the general contractor performing the Roof Replacement that the Roof Replacement was performed in accordance with the Scope and all approved Change Orders, 810 shall pay to 4300 the remainder of the cost of the Roof Replacement in accordance with the Scope, up to a maximum of $3,000,000, plus the cost of any approved Change Orders less any credits as provided below. 4300 hereby represents and warrants that the cost of the Roof Replacement will exceed $3,000,000, net of Change Orders.

5.    The Roof Replacement and the water separation described in paragraph 2 above shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in a manner reasonably designed to minimize interference with the business operations within the Property. Minimizing interference includes, but is not limited to, avoiding setting off alarms or leaving the roof unprotected during




weather events but does not include work procedures (such as working only during nights and weekends) that would materially increase costs unless 810 is willing to accept such increased costs. In the event business is interrupted at Building 6 due to 4300’s failure to comply with these requirements, 810 shall give 4300 notice thereof and 4300 shall exercise good faith efforts to cause such matter to be cured without delay.

6.    In the event that 4300 does not complete the work described in paragraph 2 within four (4) months after the date hereof, 810 may, at its sole option, after written notice and a thirty (30) day opportunity to cure, undertake to complete such work. Any amounts paid by 810 for completion of such work shall be credited to amounts due from 810 for the Roof Replacement and therefore will reduce the contribution of 810 to the Roof Replacement.

7.    Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date hereof 4300 shall provide 810 a building permit for the Roof Replacement and enter into a contract to perform the Roof Replacement, and shall thereafter prosecute such work to completion with due diligence and in good faith. In the event 4300 has not entered into a contract and provided the same to 810 (which may be redacted as to price) on or before such one hundred twentieth (120 th ) day or completed the Roof Replacement within fourteen (14) months after the date hereof, plus any period caused by any proposed or approved Change Order(s), 810 may, upon written notice and a thirty (30) day opportunity to cure, enter into such an agreement for the Roof Replacement with a contractor of its choice and 4300 shall pay to 810 all costs of the Roof Replacement incurred by 810.

8.    Miscellaneous.

a.    In any dispute regarding this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable costs of enforcement including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, inspection, consultant and expert fees and court costs.

b.    All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered by hand or when deposited in the United States mail with first class postage prepaid or when delivered to any nationally recognized overnight courier with delivery charges paid to such party at its last known address, or to such other person or address as such other party may specify by similar notice to the other party hereto.

c.    This Agreement and performance hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio.

d.    No amendment, modification, or waiver of any condition, provision, or term of this Agreement shall be valid or of any effect unless made in writing, signed by the party or parties to be bound or its duly authorized representative and specifying with particularity the extent and nature of such amendment, modification, or waiver.  No waiver of any term or condition set forth in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other term or condition; nor shall it affect or impair any right arising from any subsequent default.





e.    No rights or interest in this Agreement may be assigned.  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, no obligations of a party may be delegated without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

f.    Any invalidity, in whole or in part, of any provision of this Agreement, shall not affect the validity of any other provision of this Agreement.

g.    Paragraph headings are provided for convenience of reference and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

h.    Provided notice is provided of the delay to the other party, the parties shall be excused for delays in performing and failures to perform their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that any such delay or failure results from any cause beyond their reasonable control, including, solely by way of example and without limitation, delays caused by the other party, acts of G-d, strikes, and other labor disputes, civil disorder, catastrophes of nature, fire, explosion, natural or man-made floods or any severe weather, war, failure of a communications or computer system, nuclear attack, embargoes, actions or inactions of governmental authorities. Each party agrees to make reasonable efforts to prevent such occurrences from affecting the performance of this Agreement and no delay shall exceed one hundred twenty (120) days.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused their duly authorized signatories to execute this agreement as of the date first above written.

Columbus, Ohio 43035
Re: DSW Warehouse

Mr. Cade
Pursuant to Inquiries and assertions set forth on September 27, 2012 at a meeting between DSW, Schottenstein Property, myself, and other concerned parties; please note the following when submitting your proposal for the roofing project cited above.
Plans and specifications were submitted to the City of Columbus building code enforcement department for evaluation and comments on October 1st, 2012. Copies of said submissions are attached herewith. These documents were reviewed and evaluated by Dale E. Shumaker P.E. (Building Plans Examiner) for compliance.
,
Mr. Shumaker has noted:
1. Because the proposed roof Installation is a recover, additional R-Value is not required.
2. Upon review and calculation, the existing 6" drains along the building interior serve as primary drainage while the 4 drains at the perimeter serve as secondary drainage. As such, drains are not required. Furthermore, there is no recognized inherent risk in utilizing drain retro­ fits to install the new roof system. All drains on the existing roof function independently and no additional changes are required.
3. The City of Columbus will perform several inspections during the course of installation to confirm all work is in accordance with code requirements.
4. The proposed re-roof scope and plans are approved in their entirety.
If you have any further questions, please contact me or Mr. Shumaker directly. His contact information is also enclosed herewith.
Sincerely,

DSW Inc. Announces Acquisition of Corporate Headquarters and Columbus Distribution Center


Columbus, Ohio, November 1, 2012 —DSW Inc., a leading branded footwear and accessories retailer, today announced the acquisition of 810 AC LLC, which owns the corporate headquarters of DSW, as well as its 700,000 square foot distribution center and trailer lot on its home office campus in Columbus, OH for a total of $72 million, paid in cash.

“Today’s acquisition reflects our continued commitment to growing DSW in the future by opening stores, expanding our DSW.com business and by adding new accounts to our Affiliated Business Group (formerly the Leased Business Division),” stated Mike MacDonald, President and Chief Executive Officer of DSW Inc. The company recently completed the $15 million installation of an automatic sortation facility in the distribution center to support its size replenishment program. Mr. MacDonald continued, “Purchasing the property secures our investment and ensures our ability to expand into additional office space to support DSW’s continued growth.”

DSW had previously leased approximately two thirds of the property included in the purchase. The acquisition is expected to be slightly accretive on an annual basis, resulting from rent savings and income from existing tenants.
