Such access shall be solely for the purposes of inspecting the physical condition of the Property and conducting non-intrusive physical or environmental inspections of the Property.  Purchaser shall not conduct or allow any testing or air samples at the Property or any physically intrusive testing of, on or under the Property without first obtaining Seller’s written consent as to the timing and scope of work to be performed and entering into an access agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Seller in its sole discretion.  Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, all documents furnished to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement are provided for information only, and without representation or warranty of any nature, and Purchaser shall be solely responsible for verifying the information contained therein. Purchaser shall not file or cause to be filed any application or make any request (other than inquiries into public records and existing violations) with any governmental or quasi-governmental agency which would or could lead to a hearing before any governmental or quasi-governmental

If Purchaser fails to purchase the Property, upon request by Seller, all such final reports shall become the property of Seller. Upon request by Seller, Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller (at no additional cost to Purchaser) and the preparer of the reports to have such reports assigned to Seller.

3.1.4Purchaser shall, at its sole cost and expense and in strict accordance with all requirements of applicable law, promptly restore any physical damage or alteration of the physical condition of the Property (reasonable wear and tear excepted) which results from any inspection or activity conducted by Purchaser or any Purchaser’s Agent; provided, however, Purchaser shall have no obligation to restore any pre-existing environmental or other pre-existing conditions in, on or under the Property, except to the extent such conditions are exacerbated by Purchaser or any Purchaser’s Agents. The provisions of this Section 3.1.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

3.1.5Except for Seller’s Representations and Warranties or as otherwise provided for elsewhere in this Agreement or the documents to be delivered at Closing, Seller makes no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy, completeness, methodology of preparation or otherwise concerning any engineering or environmental reports or any other materials, data or other information supplied to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s inspection of the Property (e.g., that such materials are complete, accurate or the final version thereof, or that such materials are all of such materials as are in Seller’s possession).  In making its own examination and determination prior to the Effective Date as to whether it wishes to purchase the Property, except for Seller’s Representations and Warranties, Purchaser shall rely exclusively on its own independent investigation and evaluation of every aspect of the Property and not on any materials supplied by Seller.  

3.1.6To the extent authorized under the constitution and laws of the State of Texas, Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any demands, damages, claims,

Page 4


liabilities, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (collectively, “Claims”), to the extent the same has resulted from the exercise by Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents of the right of access on the Property, including without limitation arising out of injury or death to persons or damage to property (collectively, “Purchaser’s Indemnity Obligations”); provided, however, that Purchaser’s Indemnity Obligations shall not include (i) any claims arising out of the discovery of any pre-existing environmental or other condition at the Property, except to the extent the same has been exacerbated by Purchaser or Purchaser’s representatives; and (ii) any Claims to the extent of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any of the other Seller Released Parties.  This Section 3.1.6 shall survive closing or the termination of this Agreement.

3.1.7Purchaser hereby waives, releases and forever discharges Seller, its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, independent contractors, partners, representatives, agents, successors and assigns, and each of them (the “Seller Released Parties”), from any and all causes of action, claims, assessments, losses, damages (compensatory, punitive or other), liabilities, obligations, reimbursements, costs and expenses of any kind or nature, actual, contingent, present, future, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, fines, and attorneys’ and experts’ fees and expenses, arising out of Purchaser’s access or the inspections under Section 3 of this Agreement, except to the extent of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any of the other Seller Released Parties. This Section 3.1.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

3.1.8Any and all work with respect to Purchaser’s inspections shall be at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense and all activities undertaken by Purchaser in connection therewith shall fully comply with applicable laws and regulations. Purchaser shall keep the Property free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Purchaser or Purchaser’s Agents with respect to any inspection or testing of the Property.  If any such lien at any time shall be filed, Purchaser shall cause the same to be discharged of record within ten (10) days following Purchaser’s receipt of written notice of such lien by satisfying the same or, if Purchaser, in its discretion and in good faith determines that such lien should be contested, by recording a bond.  Failure by Purchaser to discharge such lien shall be a material breach of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees to keep confidential and not to disseminate to any third party, except to its Representatives (defined below), and to cause its Representatives to keep confidential and not disseminate to any third party, any information Purchaser (and/or its Representatives) obtains as a result of the Inspections, except (i) to the extent disclosure is required by law or court order or (ii) with respect to information that (a) is already in the receiving party’s possession prior to receipt from the disclosing party, (b) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party, or (c) becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to the disclosing party.

Page 5


Schedule B of the Commitment (the “Exceptions”) and a copy of Seller’s existing survey of the Land (the “Survey,” and together with the Commitment and the Exceptions, the “Title Documents”).  Prior to the Effective Date, Purchaser has reviewed title as disclosed by the Commitment and the Survey and hereby waives all objections to any of the Permitted Exceptions (as defined below). Seller shall NOT BE OBLIGATED TO CURE ANY OBJECTIONS TO THE COMMITMENT OR THE SURVEY, OR IDENTIFICATION IN THE TITLE DOCUMENTS OF ANY ZONING VIOLATIONS OR ZONING NON-CONFORMITY WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY, PROVIDED THAT Seller agrees to remove or discharge (x) any mortgage, judgment or lien or other monetary lien voluntarily created by Seller (it being agreed that Seller shall in no event be deemed to have voluntarily created (nor shall Seller be liable for) any monetary lien if caused or created by an act or omission of Purchaser) and (y) and any New Exception created by Seller after the date of the Commitment without the prior written approval of Purchaser (collectively, “Required Cure Matters”).

3.2.2If any update to the Title Commitment after the effective date of the Title Commitment or to the Survey after the date of the Survey discloses any new title exception or matter not disclosed in the Title Commitment, the Survey which, in each case (other than with respect to Required Cure Matters, which Seller shall be obligated to cure), has a material and adverse effect on the Property (a “New Exception”), then provided that any such New Exception was not created by or through Purchaser, Purchaser shall have a period of three (3) Business Days after delivery of such update to review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s disapproval of such New Exception, if any.  Upon the expiration of said three (3) Business Day period, except for Purchaser’s timely submitted objection to any such New Exception, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted each such New Exception, if any. Seller may respond to Purchaser’s timely submitted objection to any New Exception within three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof.  If Seller fails to respond within such three (3) Business Day period, Seller shall be deemed to have delivered Seller’s election to not cure or remove any of Purchaser’s objections to any New Exception.  If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) to not cure or remove to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser any New Exception (other than with respect to Required Cure Matters) prior to Closing (as may be extended), Purchaser may, in its sole and absolute discretion, within three (3) Business Days after notice (or deemed notice) of Seller’s intent to not cure or remove any New Exception, deliver written notice to Seller of Purchaser’s decision to (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate without any further liability on the part of either party, except for the those provisions that expressly survive any termination (the “Surviving Obligations”), or (ii) waive its objections in which event Closing will take place the later of the Closing Date and three (3) business days after notice (or deemed notice) pursuant to this Section 3.2.2.

3.2.3If on the Closing it should appear that the Property is affected by any lien, encumbrance, defect, encroachment or objection which is not a Permitted Encumbrance, then in such event, Seller, at Seller’s election, shall have the privilege to remove or satisfy the same, and shall, for that purpose, be entitled to one or more adjournments of the Closing for a period not to exceed twenty (20) days beyond the date scheduled for Closing.

The parties hereby agree that recourse under this Agreement is limited to Seller and no claim will be made against [***] individually or in his capacity as the Seller Knowledge Party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Purchaser, or any of Purchaser’s Agents, obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing that any of Seller’s Representations and Warranties were untrue in any material respect when made, or if Seller has delivered to Purchaser information with respect to the Property at any time prior to the Closing Date, and such information is inconsistent in any material respect with any of the representations and warranties herein and/or indicate that any such representations or warranties were not true in any material respect when made, Purchaser shall be deemed to have knowledge of such misrepresentation, and Purchaser’s sole remedy as a result thereof shall be to terminate this Agreement, and thereafter, Purchaser and Seller shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those which are expressly provided for in this Agreement to survive the termination hereof; and if, notwithstanding such actual knowledge of such breach of a representation, Purchaser elects to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its rights to recover Damages from Seller following the Closing.

11.4.3Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Ground Lease to the contrary, each of Purchaser and the original named Seller (“iBio”) agrees and acknowledges that Lender (or Lender’s designated assignee) is not and shall not be liable to Purchaser for any liability (including indemnity obligations) under this Agreement attributable to, resulting from or created by iBio’s tenancy under the Ground Lease or any actions or omissions of iBio, and any and all such liability shall remain with and be the sole responsibility of iBio in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding Section 9.5, iBio hereby agrees to maintain and keep in full force and

Page 17


effect its applicable D&O (directors and officers) insurance policy that is in effect as of the Effective Date as necessary to address and cover any such foregoing liability of iBio with respect to this Agreement, the Property and the transactions related thereto.

FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT

FIRPTA CERTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 1445 I.R.C

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including Section 1445), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity.  To inform the transferee that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by                                          (“Transferor”), Transferor hereby certifies to [                         ]:

1.The Company is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign person, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

2.The Company is not a disregarded entity as defined in §1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii);

3.The Company’s U.S. employer identification number is 81-0925839; and

4.The Company’s office address is:

                                                     

                                                     

                                                     

The Company understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury, the Company declares that the Company has examined this certification and to the best of the Company’s knowledge and belief it is true, correct, and complete, and the Company further declares that the Company has authority to sign this document.

COUNTY OF ________

§

BEFORE ME, the undersigned authority, on this day personally appeared                                     , as                                  of                    , a                             (“Owner”) who on his oath, deposes and says, to the best of his knowledge and belief, as follows:

1.

Affiant is a duly authorized representative of Owner and in that capacity, is authorized to act on behalf of Owner in all matters relating to the sale, disposition and financing of the ground lease estate identified on Exhibit A attached hereto (hereinafter the “Property”).

2.

Owner is desirous of selling the Property and, in connection therewith,                                 (the “Title Company”) has issued its Title Commitment No.                  dated                                , 2024 covering the Property (the “Title Commitment”).

3.

In connection with the issuance of the owner’s policy at Closing pursuant to the Title Commitment, Affiant makes the following statement of facts:

a.Affiant has no knowledge of any adverse claim to any of the Property; and that so far as Affiant knows there are no encroachments or boundary conflicts other than those shown on the Title Commitment and/or the survey of the Property dated                      (the “Survey”), a copy of which has been delivered to and reviewed by the Title Company.

b.Except as may be disclosed in the Title Commitment, Affiant states (i) Owner has not incurred any indebtedness that would affect the title to the Property, (ii) to Affiant’s knowledge, there are no liens (including Federal or States Liens, Judgment Liens or materialman’s and mechanic’s liens) of any kind on the Property and (iii) to Affiant’s knowledge, no suits pending against the Owner in Federal or State Court except as may be disclosed in the Title Commitment.

c.Except as shown on the Title Commitment or the Survey (i) no person or entity now has possession of the Property, (ii) Affiant has no current and actual knowledge of any person or entity that would have the right to possession of the Property other than Owner and other than as may be disclosed in said Title Commitment or Survey and (iii) Owner has not granted any options to purchase or rights of first refusal to purchase the Property.

d.There are no labor or material claims against the improvements or repairs, if any, or the Property upon which such improvements are situated, which have not been fully paid or which will not be fully paid as and when due in the ordinary course of business.  Owner has not previously conveyed the Property and is not a debtor in bankruptcy.


4.

Affiant recognizes that but for the making of the hereinabove statement of facts relative to the Property, the Title Company would not issue its Title Policy with respect to the Property and that such statements have been made as a material inducement for the issuance of such Policy.
