5 only where alterations are done, pursuant to an Approval as set forth in Pparagraph 2 of

7 report, the purpose and intent of the Easement will be served by restoration and
8 reconstruction of the Premises to the Prior Condition, the Grantor shall, within eighteen
9 (18) months after the date of such change or destruction, complete the restoration and
10 construction of the Premises in accordance with plans and specifications having an
11 Approval up to at least the total of the casualty insurance proceeds as may be necessary to
12 restore the appearance of the Facades to the Prior Condition, and additional cost of work
13 not performed or monies advanced (Grantee having no obligation to advance funds) by
14 Grantee shall constitute a lien on the Premises until repaid by Grantor.
15 6. Grantee's Remedies following Casualty Damage. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the
16 event of damage resulting from casualty, as defined at Paragraph 5, which is of such magnitude

18 discretion,then:
19 (a) Grantee may elect to reconstruct the Building using insurance proceeds,donations
20 or other funds received by Grantor or Grantee on account of such casualty, but otherwise
21 at its own expense(such expense of Grantee to constitute a lien on the Premises until repaid
22 in full); or,
23 (b) Grantee may elect to choose any salvageable portion of the Facades and remove
24 them from the Premises, extinguish the Easement pursuant to Paragraph 26, and this

26 deliver to Grantor acknowledged evidence of such fact suitable for recording in the land
27 records of the county wherein the Premises is located, and Grantor shall deliver to Grantee
28 a good and sufficient Bill of Sale for such salvaged portions of the Facade.
29 7. Review After Casualty Loss. If, in the opinion of the Grantee, restoration and reconstruction
30 would not serve the purpose and intent of the Easement,then the Grantor shall continue to comply with
31 the provisions of the Easement and seek an Approval altering demolishing, removing or razing the
32 Buildings and constructing new improvements on the Premises.
33 8. Grantee's Covenants. The Grantee covenants that:
34
[Page 8 of 331
1 (a) Grantee is and will remain a qualified organization for purposes of Section 170(h)
2 of the Code. In the event that the Grantee's status as a qualified organization is
3 successfully challenged, then the Grantee shall promptly select another qualified
4 organization and transfer all of its rights and obligations under the Easement to it, which
5 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Grantor.
6 (b) In the event that the Grantee shall at any time in the future become the fee simple
7 owner of the Premises, Grantee for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and
8 agrees, in the event of a subsequent conveyance of the same to another, to create a new
9 preservation and conservation easement either to retain such easement in itself or to convey

12 conservation of historical, cultural or architectural resources, and which is a qualified
13 organization under Section 170(h)(3) of the Code.

15 or transfer this Easement to a unit of federal, state or local government or to a similar
16 local, state or national organization whose purposes, inter alia,are to promote preservation
17 or conservation of historical, cultural or architectural resources, and which at the time of
18 the conveyance,assignment or transfer, is a qualified organization under Section 17(h)(3)
19 of the Code, provided that any such conveyance, assignment or transfer requires that the
20 preservation and conservation purposes for which the Easement was granted will continue
21 to be carried out.
22 9. Inspection. Grantor hereby agrees that representatives of Grantee shall be permitted at all
23 reasonable times to inspect the Premises, including the Facades and the Buildings. Grantor agrees
24 that representatives of Grantee shall be permitted to enter and inspect the interior of the Buildings
25 to determine compliance with this Easement and maintenance of structural soundness and safety;
26 inspection of the interior will not,in the absence of evidence of deterioration,take place more often
27 than annually, and may involve reasonable testing of interior structural condition. Inspection of
28 the interior will be made at a time mutually agreed upon by Grantor and Grantee, and Grantor
29 covenants not to unreasonably withhold its consent in determining a date and time for such
30 inspection.

7 may do so according to any bill,statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office
8 without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill,statement or assessment or into the validity of such

6 24. Stipulated Value of Grantee s Interest. Grantor acknowledges that upon execution and
7 recording of the Easement, Grantee shall be immediately vested with a real property interest in
8 the Premises and that such interest of Grantee shall have a stipulated fair market value,for purposes
9 of allocating net proceeds in an extinguishment pursuant to Paragraph 26, equal to the ratio
10 between the fair market value of the Easement and the Fair Market Value of the Premises prior to
11 considering the impact of the Easement(hereinafter the "Easement Percentage")as determined in
12 the Qualified Appraisal provided to the Grantee pursuant to Paragraph 25. Upon submission of the
13 Qualified Appraisal, the Grantor and Grantee shall sign an affidavit verifying the Easement

22 Easement, and any endowment requested hereunder by Grantee (if any), Grantee shall sign any
23 appraisal summary form prepared by the Internal Revenue Service and submitted to the Grantee

27 Premises for the preservation and conservation purposes and necessitate extinguishment of the
28 Easement. Such a change in conditions includes but it not limited to partial or total destruction of the
29 Buildings or the Facades resulting from a casualty of such magnitude that Grantee approves demolition
30 as explained in Paragraphs 5,6 and 7,or condemnation or loss of title of all or a portion of the Premises,
31 the Buildings or the Facades. Such an extinguishment must be either the result of a final judicial
32 proceeding or have an Approval. Grantor shall be solely responsible for determining, reporting and
33 paying any taxes, penalties or other sums, in addition to the legal, taxes and other effects of any
34 extinguishment of the Easement.
[Page 14 of 33]

2 effectiveness, interpretation and duration of the Easement.
3 (a) Any rule of strict construction designed to limit the breadth of restrictions on

13 person shall cease to have any interest(present, partial, contingent, collateral or future) in
14 the Premises by reason of a bona fide transfer for full value, solely except for violations in
15 existence at the time of transfer, for which Grantor and all successors to Grantor shall be
16 jointly and severally responsible without necessity of joining all such responsible persons.
17 Any right, title or interest herein granted to Grantee also shall be deemed granted to each
18 successor and assign of Grantee and each such following successor and assign thereof,and
19 the word "Grantee" shall include all such successors and assigns.
20 (c) This Easement is executed in counterparts,each page of which(including exhibits)
21 has been initialed by Grantor and Grantee for purposes of identification. In the event of
22 any disparity between the counterparts produced,the recorded counterpart shall constitute
23 the agreement of the parties.
24 (d) Except as expressly provided herein, nothing contained in this Easement grants,
25 nor shall be interpreted to grant,to the public any right to enter on the Premises or into the
26 Buildings.
27 (e) To the extent that Grantor owns or is entitled to development rights which may
28 exist now or at some time hereafter by reason of the fact that under any applicable zoning
29 or similar ordinance the Premises may be developed to use more intensive (in terms of
30 height,bulk or other objective\criteria regulated by such ordinances)than the Premises are
31 devoted as of the date hereof, such development rights shall not be exercisable on,
32 above or below the Premises during the term of the Easement, nor shall they be
33 transferred to any adjacent parcel and exercised in a manner that would interfere with
34 the preservation and conservation purposes of the Easement.
[Page 15 of 33]
1 (f) For purposes of furthering the preservation of the Premises and Buildings and
2 of furthering the other purposes of this Easement, and to meet changing conditions,
3 Grantor and Grantee are free to amend jointly the terms of this instrument in writing
4 without notice to any party; provided, however, that no such amendment shall limit
5 the perpetual duration or interfere with the preservation and conservation purposes of
6 this Easement. Such amendment shall become effective upon recording among the real
7 estate records of the county where the Premises is located.
8 (g) the invalidity of any statute providing authority for Grantee to enter into this
9 Easement or any part of this Easement shall not affect the validity and enforceability
10 of the remaining portions of this Easement according to its terms, it being the intent
11 of the parties to agree and to bind themselves, their successors and their assigns in
12 perpetuity to each term of this Easement whether this Easement be enforceable by
13 reason of an statue, common law or private agreement either in existence now or at
14 any time subsequent hereto.
15 (h) Nothing contained in this Easement shall be interpreted to authorize or permit
16 Grantor IO violate any ordinance or regulation relating to building materials,
17 construction methods or use. In the event of any conflict between any such ordinance
18 or regulation and the terms hereof, Grantor promptly shall notify Grantee of such
19 conflict and shall cooperate with Grantee and the applicable governmental entity to
20 accommodate the purposes of both this instrument and such ordinance or regulation.
21 (i) This Easement reflects the entire agreement of Grantor and Grantee. Any prior
22 or simultaneous correspondence, undertakings, agreements and representations are
23 null and void upon execution hereof, unless set out in this instrument.
24 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, on the date first shown above, Grantor has caused this Preservation
25 and Conservation Easement to be executed, sealed and delivered; and Grantee has caused this
26 instrument to be accepted, sealed and executed in its corporate name by its Director and attested by its
