Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On January 19, 2018, Voltari Corporation (the “Company”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Voltari Real Estate Holding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with The State Media Company, a South Carolina corporation (the “Seller”), to acquire all of Seller’s right, title and interest in a real estate parcel located in Columbia, South Carolina (the “Property”) for $17.0 million.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, upon the closing of the sale of the Property, Purchaser will enter into a triple net lease with The McClatchy Company (the “Lease”), a publicly traded Delaware corporation and an affiliate of the Seller (“McClatchy”). The Lease will have an initial term of fifteen years, with three five-year extension options (the “Term”). During the Term, in addition to rent, McClatchy will be responsible for the payment of all real estate taxes, utilities, tenant’s insurance and other property related costs, and the maintenance of the Property and its premises. The initial average annual rental income for the Property will be approximately $1,613,000 (the “Base Rent”). On each of the fifth (5th) and tenth (10th) anniversaries of the commencement date of the Lease, the Base Rent will be increased by ten percent (10%) above the then current Base Rent.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties and the closing of the purchase is subject to customary conditions precedent, including a due diligence period. The Company makes no assurances that the conditions will be satisfied or that the purchase will be consummated in a timely manner, if at all.

Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any documents delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to facilitate Buyer’s Studies shall be delivered to Buyer without any representations or warranties by Seller with the exception of the representations expressly set forth in Section 6.1 hereof.

Buyer’s title to the Property shall be insured by First American Title Insurance Company (the “ Title Company ”) by means of an owner’s title insurance policy on ALTA Policy Form B-2006, with extended form coverage in the full amount of the Purchase Price (the “ Title Policy ”). The Property shall be sold and is to be conveyed subject to (a) the “Standard Exceptions” and provisions contained in the form of title insurance commitment and title insurance policy issued by the Title Company and such other liens, claims, municipal betterments, encumbrances, exceptions and matters as any reputable title insurance company authorized to do business in the State of South Carolina shall be willing to delete as an exception to coverage, (b) the lien of real estate taxes, assessments, water rates or meter charges and sewer rents not yet due and payable, (c) title and survey matters accepted or deemed to have been accepted by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement, (d) matters set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto, and (e) any additional off-record matters accepted by Buyer in writing (all the matters set forth in this Section 5.2.1 being collectively referred to as the “ Permitted Exceptions ”).

5.2.2 Title Review . Buyer shall have until the date that is seven (7) business days prior to the expiration of the Review Period to notify Seller in writing (any such notice, a “ Defect Notice ”) of those exceptions or matters indicated on the Title Evidence (such exceptions to title being referred to as the “ Disclosed Exceptions ”) of those exceptions that Buyer disapproves. If Buyer fails to deliver written notice to Seller of any exceptions or matters indicated on the Title Evidence disapproved by Buyer prior to said date, then all such Disclosed Exceptions shall be deemed approved by Buyer. Any exceptions indicated on the Title Evidence and approved (or deemed approved) by Buyer shall constitute Permitted Exceptions in connection with the issuance of the Title Policy. Any exceptions to title (other than the Permitted Exceptions and the Disclosed Exceptions) that arise between the effective date of the Title Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, and the Closing are referred to herein as “ New Defects .” Buyer shall have five (5) business days after its receipt of written notice or updated title evidence reflecting any New Defects within which to notify Seller in writing of any such New Defects to which Buyer reasonably objects on the grounds that such New Defects either (x) render title unmarketable or uninsurable at regular rates or (y) materially and adversely affect Buyer’s intended use of the Property or the value of the Property. Seller shall be obligated to cure and remove (or procure title insurance over) all of the following classes of New Defects and Disclosed Exceptions, as and to the extent that they affect the Property (“ Mandatory Cure Items ”), if any: (a) the liens of any mortgage, trust deed or deed of trust evidencing an indebtedness owed by Seller; (b) tax liens for delinquent ad valorem real estate taxes; (c) mechanics liens pursuant to a written agreement either between (x) the claimant (the “ Contract Claimant ”) and Seller or its employees, officers or managing agents (the “ Seller Parties ”) or (y) the Contract Claimant and any other contractor, materialman or supplier with which Seller or the Seller Parties have a written agreement; and (d) broker’s liens pursuant to a written agreement between the broker and Seller or any Seller Parties. If Buyer notifies Seller of its disapproval of any exceptions or matters indicated on the Title Evidence, then Seller shall have three (3) business days after such notice to advise Buyer in writing of any such exceptions which Seller is unable or unwilling to remove at the close of Escrow (the “ Seller’s Response Notice ”), indicating that Seller has elected to cure and remove any such matters (any such matters that Seller elects to cure and remove, “ Seller Cure Items ”) not later than the Closing. Seller shall have until Closing to cure and remove (or procure title insurance over) any Seller Cure Items. If Seller fails to deliver Seller’s Response Notice within such three (3) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to be unable or unwilling to remove the disapproved exceptions or matters except as expressly required in this section. If Seller is (or is deemed to be) unable or unwilling to remove all such disapproved exceptions or matters, then Buyer shall have the right, by written notice to Seller and Settlement Agent delivered not later than the expiration of the Review Period, to terminate this Agreement not later than the date that is five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of a Seller’s Response Notice, in which event the Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer ,and neither party shall have any further liabilities or obligations pursuant to this Agreement except those liabilities or obligations that expressly survive termination of this Agreement . Failure of Buyer to so terminate this Agreement shall be deemed Buyer’s waiver of its previous title objections and all such disapproved exceptions or matters shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. If, on or prior to Closing, Seller fails to cure and remove (i) any Mandatory Cure Item, or (ii) each Disclosed Exception or New Defect, as the case may be, that Seller agreed to cure (pursuant to a Seller’s Response Notice), Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller on or prior to Closing, in which event the Deposit shall immediately be returned to Buyer.

If the aggregate cost of repair or replacement of the Casualty Damage (collectively, “ repair and/or replacement ”) is $1,250,000.00 or less, in the opinion of Buyer’s and Seller’s respective engineering consultants, (i) Seller may elect to terminate this Agreement, or (ii) Buyer shall close and take the Property as diminished by such events, subject to an assignment of Seller’s casualty insurance proceeds (plus a credit for the amount of any unpaid deductible, together with the difference between the amount of the proceeds and the average estimate of the cost of repairs provided by Buyer’s and Seller’s respective consultants) or an assignment of any condemnation award, as applicable. If the aggregate cost of repair and/or replacement of the Casualty Damage is greater than $1,250,000.00, in the opinion of Buyer’s and Seller’s respective engineering consultants, or in the event of an Eminent Domain, then Buyer, at its sole option, may elect either to (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller in which event the provisions of 11.19 governing a permitted termination by Buyer of the entire Agreement shall apply; or (ii) proceed to close subject to an assignment of the proceeds of Seller’s casualty insurance for all Casualty Damage plus a credit for the amount of any unpaid deductible (or condemnation awards for any Eminent Domain).
