CERTIFICATE OF NON-FOREIGN STATUS
This certificate is being delivered in connection with that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of November 28, 2011, by and among G14M2 HHC, L.L.C. (Purchaser) and Harry B. Rosenberg and Charles E. Dobrusin, solely as co-trustees of the trust listed on Exhibit A (the Transferors).
Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the Code), 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 Purchaser that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by the Transferors, the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of each Transferor:
(a) | Each Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate, (as those terms are defined in the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder); |
(b) | Each Transferor is not a disregarded entity as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii); |
(c) | Each Transferors employer identification number is set forth on Exhibit A next to its name; and |
(d) | Each Transferors office address is set forth on Exhibit A next to its employer identification number: |
The Transferors understand that this Certificate may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the Purchaser and that any false statement herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment or both.
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this certificate and to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and I further declare that I have the authority to sign this certificate on behalf of the Transferors.
