2. Payment of Subscription Price. This Subscription Agreement is accompanied by a check in the amount of the required subscription price defined above, made payable to “HC Government Realty Trust, Inc.” In lieu of a check, Investor may wire the amount of the subscription price pursuant to wiring instructions that will be provided upon request by the Company.

3. Representations and Warranties of Investor. Investor represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a) This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by the Investor and constitutes the Investor’s legal, valid, and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its respective terms. If the Investor is a corporation, limited liability Company or partnership, or other business entity, it is authorized to make the investment contemplated herein, and the person signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so.

(b) The Investor is acquiring the Acquired Shares for the Investor’s own account for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution. The Investor understands that the Acquired Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act that depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties as expressed herein. The Investor has not been formed for the purpose of acquiring the Acquired Shares.

(c) The Investor: (i) has been furnished, has carefully read, and has relied solely (except as indicated in subsection (ii) below) on the information contained in the Disclosure Documents; and (ii) has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering, the Preferred Stock, the Company and its business and to obtain such additional information that was otherwise provided, and he, she or it has not been furnished any other literature relating to the Offering, the Preferred Stock, the Company or its business.

(d) The Investor recognizes (i) that purchase of the Acquired Shares involves a high degree of risk and has taken full cognizance of and understands such risks, (ii) that all information provided by the Company relating to its use of proceeds, and other information which is not of an historical nature represents only the Company’s good faith assessment of its future expenses, revenues, and operations, as applicable, and is based upon assumptions which the Company believes are reasonable, although no assurance exists that such forecasts and assumptions will be fulfilled, and (iii) that the Company has relied on the representations of the Investor as set forth in this Section in determining materiality for purposes of satisfying the disclosure obligations of the Company and in determining the availability of exemptions from registration requirements under federal and state securities laws.

(e) The Investor fully understands and agrees that the Investor must bear the economic risk of the purchase of the Acquired Shares for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Acquired Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act, or the securities laws of any state, and therefore cannot be sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

 

2

(f) The Investor (i) can bear the risk of losing the entire investment; (ii) has overall commitments to other investments which are not readily marketable that are not disproportionate to his, her or its net worth and the investment in the Acquired Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive; (iii) has adequate means of providing for current needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity in the investment in the Acquired Shares; and (iv) has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that he, she or it is capable, either alone, or together with one or more advisors, of evaluating the risks and merits of investing in the Acquired Shares.

(g) The Investor has not incurred, and will not incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the Investor, any liability for brokerage or finder’s fees or agent’s commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Subscription Agreement.

(h) The Investor acknowledges that the Investor must depend entirely upon his, her or its own personal advisors for tax advice concerning an investment in the Company, that the Company has not provided any information on tax matters, and that any information provided to him, her or it by, or on behalf of, the Company is not to be construed as tax advice to him, her or it from counsel to the Company. The Investor will rely solely on his, her or its own personal advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents and understands that the Investor (and not the Company) shall be responsible for the Investor’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

(i) The Investor accepts the terms of the Company’s Organic Documents.

(j) The representations and warranties made in this Section, and all other information that the Investor has provided to the Company, either directly or indirectly, concerning the Investor’s financial position and knowledge of financial and business matters, is correct and complete as of the date hereof.

(k) The Investor qualifies as an “Accredited Investor” as such term is defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act, and has, in connection with his, her, or its qualification as an Accredited Investor, answered “Yes” and checked one or more appropriate lines in Question 4 of the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto as Appendix A.

(l) Neither the Investor nor, to the extent it has them, any of its equity owners who own 20% or more of the outstanding equity of Investor, (collectively with the Investor, the “Investor Covered Persons”), are subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act, except for a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3); provided, however that if an Investor Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2)(i) then Investor shall have provided the Company with such information as necessary to make the required disclosure regarding the applicable Disqualification Event under Rule 506(e). The Investor has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Investor Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The purchase of the Acquired Shares by the Investor will not subject the Company to any Disqualification Event.

(m) The Investor certifies that he, she or it has answered the questions contained in the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto as Appendix A and made a part hereof to the best of his, her or its knowledge and that the answers thereto are complete and. accurate. The Investor understands and agrees that, although such answers will be kept strictly confidential, the Company may present such Investor Questionnaire to such parties as it deems advisable if called upon to establish the availability under the federal or state securities laws of an exemption from registration.

4. Survival; Indemnification.

(b) Investor hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its shareholders, officers, directors, affiliates, external managers and advisors from any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that they may incur by reason of Investor’s failure to fulfill all of the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement or by reason of the untruth or inaccuracy of any of the representations, warranties or agreements contained herein or in any other documents Investor has furnished to any of the foregoing in connection with the transactions described herein. This indemnification includes, but is not limited to, any damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company, and all of its respective shareholders, officers, directors, affiliates, external managers or advisors defending against any alleged violation of federal or state securities laws that is based upon or related to any untruth or inaccuracy of any of the representations, warranties or agreements contained herein or in any other documents Investor has furnished in connection with this transaction.
