Portfolio-Wide Transfer of Tangible Personal Property

This BILL OF SALE (this "Bill of Sale") is made and delivered effective as of June 6, 2024 (the "Closing Date"), by GREYSTONE MERIDIAN PARTNERS FUND III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Seller"), to FAIRWATER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, a Maryland real estate investment trust ("Buyer"), in connection with that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of February 28, 2024, between Seller and Buyer, as more particularly described below.

RECITALS

A. Seller and Buyer entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of February 28, 2024, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of April 12, 2024, and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of May 28, 2024 (as so amended, the "PSA"), pursuant to which Seller agreed to sell and Buyer agreed to purchase one hundred percent (100%) of the membership interests in each of the fourteen (14) property-owning single-purpose Delaware limited liability companies identified on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (each, a "Target Entity" and collectively, the "Target Entities").

B. Each Target Entity owns certain real property and improvements located in the States of Georgia, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and North Carolina, as more particularly described in the PSA (each, a "Property" and collectively, the "Properties"). The Properties comprise a diversified portfolio of industrial logistics facilities and office properties totaling approximately 5,224,000 rentable square feet.

C. In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the PSA (the "Closing"), Seller desires to transfer, convey, and deliver to Buyer (or to the applicable Target Entity for Buyer's benefit) all of Seller's right, title, and interest in and to all tangible personal property owned by Seller (as distinct from the Target Entities) and located at, upon, or within the Properties, or otherwise used in connection with the ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Properties.

D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the PSA.

NOW, THEREFORE, for the consideration described herein and in the PSA, and intending to be legally bound, Seller hereby agrees as follows:

SECTION 1 — CONVEYANCE AND TRANSFER

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, including without limitation the Purchase Price of One Billion One Hundred Million Dollars ($1,100,000,000.00) (as adjusted pursuant to the PSA, including the property condition assessment credit of One Million Seventy Thousand Dollars ($1,070,000.00) and such other prorations and adjustments as are set forth on the closing statement executed by the parties at Closing), Seller hereby unconditionally and irrevocably sells, transfers, assigns, conveys, and delivers to Buyer, effective as of the Closing on June 6, 2024, all of Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the following categories of tangible personal property (collectively, the "Personal Property"):

(a) All furniture, furnishings, fixtures (to the extent not constituting real property fixtures under applicable law), carpeting, draperies, window treatments, appliances, decorative items, lobby furnishings, artwork, and common area furnishings located at, upon, or within the Properties;

(b) All equipment, machinery, tools, supplies, and materials used in connection with the operation, repair, and maintenance of the Properties, including without limitation heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ("HVAC") equipment and components (to the extent constituting personal property and not permanently affixed real property fixtures), generators, back-up power systems, compressors, loading dock equipment, dock levelers, dock bumpers, warehouse racking and shelving, fire suppression equipment, landscaping equipment, janitorial equipment, snow and ice removal equipment, power washers, and all similar operational equipment;

(c) All office furniture, office equipment, computers, monitors, printers, telecommunications equipment, telephone systems, fax machines, copiers, and other office supplies located at the on-site management offices and leasing offices at the Properties;

(d) All signage, directories, building identification materials, monument signs, directional signs, wayfinding systems, and tenant identification signage located at the Properties, in each case to the extent owned by Seller or any Target Entity and not by any tenant under any lease;

(e) All keys, key cards, access codes, access control systems, security systems, closed-circuit television systems, surveillance cameras, recording equipment, and related security infrastructure and equipment;

(f) All building systems manuals, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals, maintenance logs, plans, specifications, drawings (including as-built drawings), surveys, environmental reports, engineering reports, roof condition reports, and similar documentation relating to the Properties and their building systems, to the extent in the possession or control of Seller;

(g) All spare parts, replacement components, and inventory of maintenance and repair supplies on hand at the Properties as of the Closing Date, including replacement filters, light bulbs, ballasts, belts, motors, and similar consumable items; and

(h) All other items of tangible personal property owned by Seller or any Target Entity and located at, upon, or within any Property, or used exclusively in connection with the ownership, operation, or maintenance of any Property, whether or not specifically enumerated above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Personal Property expressly does not include:

(i) any personal property owned by tenants under the eighty-seven (87) leases currently in effect at the Properties, which personal property remains the sole property of such tenants and is not the subject of this conveyance;

(ii) any proprietary software, trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos, domain names, or other intellectual property of Seller, Greystone Meridian Capital LLC, or any affiliate thereof;

(iii) any property of Argyle Property Services LLC used in its capacity as property manager of the Properties that is not permanently affixed to or exclusively dedicated to one or more of the Properties, including without limitation portable computers, cellular telephones, and other mobile equipment used by Argyle Property Services LLC employees in connection with the management of properties other than the Properties; and

(iv) any property of third-party service providers, vendors, contractors, or consultants that may be temporarily located at any Property as of the Closing Date.

SECTION 2 — PROPERTIES AND TARGET ENTITIES

The Properties and their corresponding Target Entities are identified in detail on Exhibit A attached hereto. For reference purposes, the following table provides an inline summary of the fourteen (14) Properties and the Target Entities that own them:

Each Target Entity listed above is a Delaware limited liability company. The transfer of one hundred percent (100%) of the membership interests in each Target Entity occurred simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Bill of Sale, pursuant to separate Assignment and Assumption of Membership Interests agreements executed by Seller and Buyer (or their respective designees) at the Closing. This Bill of Sale is intended to supplement and complement such entity-level transfers as a belt-and-suspenders conveyance of any tangible personal property that may be owned directly by Seller (rather than by the applicable Target Entity) and that is located at, upon, or within the Properties or used exclusively in connection with the ownership, operation, or maintenance of the Properties. To the extent any item of Personal Property is determined to be owned by a Target Entity rather than by Seller, this Bill of Sale shall be deemed to evidence the continued ownership of such item by such Target Entity following the transfer of the membership interests therein to Buyer.

SECTION 3 — "AS IS, WHERE IS" CONVEYANCE; WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

3.1 The Personal Property is transferred and conveyed "AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS" as of the Closing Date. Buyer acknowledges that Buyer has had the opportunity to inspect and examine the Personal Property prior to the Closing and is relying solely on its own inspections, examinations, and due diligence investigations with respect to the condition, suitability, fitness, and value of the Personal Property.

3.2 Seller makes no representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to the Personal Property, whether express or implied, except as expressly set forth in Article V of the PSA, which representations and warranties are subject in all respects to the survival and indemnification provisions of the PSA. All references herein to representations and warranties of Seller are qualified in their entirety by, and are subject to, the limitations, exceptions, and qualifications set forth in the PSA, including all schedules and disclosure schedules thereto.

3.3 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SELLER SPECIFICALLY AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, CONDITION, QUALITY, DURABILITY, OPERABILITY, OR SUITABILITY with respect to the Personal Property, and Buyer hereby waives any and all claims against Seller based upon or arising from any such implied warranties. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that no representative of Seller has made, and Seller is not liable for or bound by, any express or implied warranties, guaranties, statements, representations, or information pertaining to the Personal Property, except as expressly set forth in the PSA.

3.4 Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that its sole recourse for any breach of representations or warranties relating to the Personal Property shall be governed by and subject to the indemnification provisions, caps, baskets, and survival limitations set forth in the PSA, including without limitation:

(a) the General Representation Cap of Fifty-Five Million Dollars ($55,000,000.00);

(b) the Fundamental Representation Cap of One Hundred Ten Million Dollars ($110,000,000.00);

(c) the tipping basket of Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,500,000.00), upon which threshold being exceeded Buyer shall be entitled to recovery from the first dollar of Losses;

(d) the de minimis threshold of Two Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($275,000.00) per individual claim, below which threshold no individual claim shall be counted toward satisfaction of the tipping basket;

(e) the indemnity escrow of Sixteen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($16,500,000.00), held by Granite Harbor Indemnity Co., as escrow agent, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement dated as of the Closing Date; and

(f) the eighteen (18)-month general representation survival period, which shall expire on December 6, 2025, after which date no claim for indemnification on account of a breach of any general representation or warranty may be asserted (except as to Fundamental Representations, which survive for the applicable statute of limitations period, and Tax representations, which survive until sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, including extensions thereof).

SECTION 4 — RELATIONSHIP TO PSA

4.1 This Bill of Sale is executed and delivered by Seller pursuant to the PSA and is subject in all respects to the terms, conditions, and provisions thereof. This Bill of Sale constitutes one of the "Closing Deliverables" referenced in the PSA and is delivered in partial satisfaction of Seller's obligations under the PSA at Closing.

4.2 In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms or provisions of this Bill of Sale and the terms or provisions of the PSA, the PSA shall control and govern in all respects.

4.3 Nothing in this Bill of Sale shall be deemed to modify, amend, supplement, expand, or otherwise alter the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, or indemnification obligations of the parties set forth in the PSA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the delivery of this Bill of Sale shall not be construed as creating any representation, warranty, or covenant on the part of Seller that is not expressly set forth in the PSA.

4.4 This Bill of Sale is not intended to, and shall not, create any obligations, liabilities, rights, or remedies separate from, in addition to, or independent of those expressly set forth in the PSA. Buyer's acceptance of this Bill of Sale shall not waive, modify, or otherwise affect any rights or remedies of Buyer under the PSA, and Seller's delivery of this Bill of Sale shall not waive, modify, or otherwise affect any rights or defenses of Seller under the PSA.

Seller agrees, at no additional cost or expense to Buyer (except as otherwise expressly provided in the PSA with respect to post-closing cost allocations), to execute and deliver, from time to time upon the reasonable request of Buyer, such further instruments of transfer, conveyance, and assignment, and to take such other actions, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to more fully and effectively vest in Buyer (or in the applicable Target Entity for Buyer's benefit) good and marketable title to the Personal Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and adverse claims, subject in all cases to any permitted exceptions identified in the PSA. The obligations of Seller under this Section 5 shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months.

SECTION 6 — BINDING EFFECT; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

This Bill of Sale shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, and legal representatives. No party may assign its rights or obligations under this Bill of Sale except in connection with an assignment of its rights and obligations under the PSA in accordance with the terms thereof.

SECTION 7 — GOVERNING LAW

This Bill of Sale shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of laws rules or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York, consistent with Section 12.8 of the PSA.

SECTION 8 — COUNTERPARTS AND ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES

8.1 This Bill of Sale may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8.2 Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Bill of Sale by electronic transmission, including by portable document format (PDF) or other electronic means, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof, and each party hereto agrees that it will be bound by its own electronically transmitted signature and that it accepts the electronically transmitted signature of each other party hereto.
