and approved the Due Diligence Materials with respect to each Property purchased
at such Closing, and the Property, and to have waived to the extent Seller has
the responsibility for the same pursuant to the Lease, any such defect,
deficiency or encumbrance disclosed in the Due Diligence Materials with respect
to each Property purchased at such Closing, and to have accepted all exceptions
to title referenced in the Title Commitment, and all matters shown on the
Survey, with respect to each Property purchased at such Closing. Such accepted
title exceptions and survey matters shall be included in the term "Permitted
Exceptions" as used herein.
4.3 Investigations. During the Review Period, Purchaser and its agents
and designees have been given the right and opportunity to examine each Property
for the purpose of inspecting the same and making tests, inquiries and
examinations (collectively the "Investigations").
4.4 Restoration After Investigations. Purchaser agrees, at its sole
expense, to cause the Property to be restored to substantially the same
condition it was in prior to such entry. In addition, Purchaser agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its successors and assigns and the current
owner of the Land harmless for, from and against and to reimburse Seller with
respect to all claims for bodily injury, personal injury or property damage, as
well as any professional services lien, which may be asserted by reason of the
activities of Purchaser or its agents or designees during the Investigations.
The foregoing indemnity shall survive the Closing and/or any termination of this
Agreement and shall not operate as, or be deemed to be, an indemnification
against any claim arising as a result of any condition or matter discovered as a
result of the Investigations.
ARTICLE V.
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS
5.1 Representations and Warranties of Seller. To induce Purchaser to
enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Property, Seller represents and
warrants to Purchaser as follows:
(a) Seller has and at each Closing will have, and will convey,
transfer and assign to Purchaser, good, indefeasible and insurable right and
title to the Land and its interest, as lessee, in the Ground Leases, free and
clear of any deeds of trust, mortgages, liens, encumbrances, leases, tenancies,
licenses, chattel mortgages, conditional sales agreements, security interests,
covenants, conditions, restrictions, judgments, rights-of-way, easements,
encroachments, claims and any other matters affecting title or use of the
Property, except the Permitted Exceptions.
(b) Seller has duly and validly authorized and executed this
Agreement, and has full right, title, power and authority to enter into this
Agreement and to consummate the transactions provided for herein, and the
joinder of no person or entity will be necessary to convey each Property fully
and completely to Purchaser at the Closing of such Property and to lease or
sublease such Property from Purchaser following such Closing. Sellers are
corporations duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the States of Missouri and Delaware, respectively, and are qualified to
do business in each state in which any of the Property owned or leased by such
Seller is located. The consummation of the transactions contemplated herein does
not require the approval of Seller's shareholders or any third party, except
such third party approvals as Seller has obtained or will obtain prior to each
Closing Date. The execution by Seller of this Agreement and the consummation by
Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby do not, and at the Closing will
not, result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a
default or a condition which upon notice or lapse of time or both would ripen
into a default under, Seller's Bylaws or Certificate of Incorporation, any
indenture, agreement, instrument or obligation to which Seller is a party or by
which any Property or any portion thereof is bound; and does not constitute a
violation of any Laws, order, rule or regulation applicable to Seller or any
portion of a Property of any court or of any federal, state or municipal
regulatory body or administrative agency or other governmental body having
jurisdiction over Seller or any portion of a Property.
(c) There are no adverse parties in possession of a Property
or of any part thereof. Seller has not granted to any party any license, lease
or other right relating to the use or possession of a Property, except as set
forth in the Permitted Exceptions or provided to Purchaser in the Due Diligence
Materials.
(d) Except as provided to Purchaser in the Due Diligence
Materials, no written notice has been received from any insurance company that
has issued a policy with respect to any portion of a Property or from any board
of fire underwriters (or other body exercising similar functions), claiming any
defects or deficiencies or requiring the performance of any repairs,
replacements, alterations or other work and as of the Closing no such written
notice will have been received which shall not have been cured. No written
notice has been received by Seller from any issuing insurance company that any
of such policies will not be renewed, or will be renewed only at a higher
premium rate than is presently payable therefor.
(e) No pending condemnation, eminent domain, assessment or
similar proceeding or charge affecting any Property or any portion thereof
exists. Seller has not heretofore received any written notice, and has no actual
knowledge, that any such proceeding or charge is contemplated.
(f) All Improvements (including all utilities) have been, or
as of the Closing will be, substantially completed and installed in accordance
with the plans and specifications approved by the governmental authorities
having jurisdiction to the extent
applicable and are transferable to Purchaser without additional cost. Permanent
certificates of occupancy, all licenses, Permits, authorizations and approvals
required by all governmental authorities having jurisdiction, and the requisite
certificates of the local board of fire underwriters (or other body exercising
similar functions) have been, or as of the Closing will be, issued for the
Improvements, and, as of the Closing, where required, all of the same will be in
full force and effect; provided, however, that temporary or partial certificates
of occupancy may be provided in the event that under laws or regulations
applicable to a particular Property, a permanent certificate of occupancy is not
available because of the status of construction or subleasing of a portion of
the Property. The Improvements, as designed and constructed, substantially
comply or will substantially comply with all statutes, restrictions, regulations
and ordinances applicable thereto, including but not limited to the Americans
with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as
applicable.
(g) The existing water, sewer, gas and electricity lines,
storm sewer and other utility systems on the Land are reasonably adequate to
serve the current and contemplated utility needs of each Property. All utilities
required for the operation of the Improvements enter the Land through adjoining
public streets or through adjoining private land in accordance with valid public
or private easements that will inure to the benefit of Purchaser. All approvals,
licenses and permits required for said utilities have been obtained and are in
full force and effect. All of said utilities are installed and operating and all
installation and connection charges have been paid in full.
(h) The location, construction, occupancy, operation and use
of each Property (including the Improvements) do not violate any applicable law,
statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order or determination of any governmental
authority or any board of fire underwriters (or other body exercising similar
functions), or any restrictive covenant or deed restriction (recorded or
otherwise) affecting the Property or the location, construction, occupancy,
operation or use thereof, including, without limitation, all applicable zoning
ordinances and building codes, flood disaster laws and health and environmental
laws and regulations, the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as applicable.
(i) There are not any structural defects in any of the
buildings or other Improvements constituting each Property. The Improvements,
all heating, electrical, plumbing and drainage at, or servicing, each Property
and all facilities and equipment relating thereto are and, as of the Closing,
will be in good condition and working order and adequate in quantity and quality
for the normal operation of the Property. No part of any Property has been
destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty. To Seller's knowledge, there are
no unsatisfied written requests for repairs, restorations or alterations with
regard to the Property from any person, entity or authority, including but not
limited to any lender, insurance provider or governmental authority.
(j) Except as may be set forth in any of the Due Diligence
Materials, no work has been performed or is in progress at any Property, and no
materials will have been delivered to the Property that might provide the basis
for a mechanic's, materialmen's or other lien against the Property or any
portion thereof, and all amounts due for such work and material shall have been
paid or discharged to Purchaser's satisfaction as of Closing.
(k) There exist no service contracts, management or other
agreements applicable to any Property, to which Seller is a party or otherwise
known to Seller, other than Seller's Operating and Service Agreements and those
agreements furnished to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1.
(l) Seller is not in default in any manner which would result
in a material adverse effect on Seller or the Property under any of the Ground
Leases, Business Agreements, or Seller's Operating and Service Agreements or any
of the covenants, conditions, restrictions, rights-of-way or easements affecting
the Property or any portion thereof, and, to Seller's knowledge no other party
to any of the foregoing is in material default thereunder.
(m) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to
Seller's knowledge, threatened against or affecting any Property or any portion
thereof, or relating to or arising out of the ownership or operation of the
Property, or by any federal, state, county or municipal department, commission,
board, bureau or agency or other governmental instrumentality, other than those
disclosed to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1. All judicial proceedings
concerning any Property will be finally dismissed and terminated prior to
Closing, excluding lawsuits in which Seller is involved in its ordinary course
of business. Seller hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser
harmless from and against any and all Claims (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) arising out of or relating to any lawsuits or other proceedings in which
Seller is involved which lawsuits involve or relate to the Property.
(n) Each Property has free and unimpeded access to presently
existing public highways and/or roads (either directly or by way of perpetual
easements); and, to Seller's knowledge, all approvals necessary therefor have
been obtained. No fact or condition exists which would result in the termination
of the current access from the Property to any presently existing public
highways and/or roads adjoining or situated on the Property.
(o) There are no attachments, executions, assignments for the
benefit of creditors, or voluntary or involuntary proceedings in bankruptcy or
under any other debtor relief laws contemplated by or, to Seller's knowledge,
pending or threatened against Seller or any Property.
(p) Except as may be set forth in any of the Due Diligence
Materials, no Hazardous Materials have been installed, used, generated,
manufactured, treated, handled, refined, produced, processed, stored or disposed
of, or otherwise present in, on or under any
Property by Seller or to Seller's knowledge by any third party. No activity has
been undertaken on any Property by Seller or, to Seller's knowledge, by any
third party which would cause (i) any Property to become a hazardous waste
treatment, storage or disposal facility within the meaning of, or otherwise
bring any Property within the ambit of RCRA or any Hazardous Materials Law, (ii)
a release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials from any Property within
the meaning of, or otherwise bring any Property within the ambit of, CERCLA or
XXXX or any Hazardous Materials Law or (iii) the discharge of Hazardous
Materials into any watercourse, body of surface or subsurface water or wetland,
or the discharge into the atmosphere of any Hazardous Materials which would
require a permit under any Hazardous Materials Law. No activity has been
undertaken with respect to any Property by Seller or, to Seller's knowledge, any
third party which would cause a violation or support a claim under RCRA, CERCLA,
XXXX or any other Hazardous Materials Law. No investigation, administrative
order, litigation or settlement with respect to any Hazardous Materials is in
existence with respect to any Property, nor, to Seller's knowledge, is any of
the foregoing threatened. No written notice has been received by Seller from any
entity, governmental body or individual claiming any violation of any Hazardous
Materials Law, or requiring compliance with any Hazardous Materials Law, or
demanding payment or contribution for environmental damage or injury to natural
resources. Seller has not obtained and, to Seller's knowledge, is not required
to obtain, and Seller has no knowledge of any reason Purchaser will be required
to obtain, any permits, licenses, or similar authorizations to occupy, operate
or use the Improvements or any part of any Property by reason of any Hazardous
Materials Law. Notwithstanding the representations made herein, such
representations are and shall be deemed to be limited by the matters detailed in
any Phase I Preliminary Site Assessment or other Due Diligence Materials
obtained by or provided to Purchaser in connection herewith.
(q) Each Property includes all items of property, tangible and
intangible, currently used by Seller in connection with the operation of the
Property, other than the Excluded Personal Property, Seller's Operating and
Service Agreements, and property expressly excluded from the definition of the
Property, and the exclusion of such items from the property to be conveyed to
Purchaser will not have any materials adverse affect upon Purchaser's ownership
of the Property following the Closing.
(r) Seller has not knowingly failed to disclose anything of a material
nature with respect to the Due Diligence Materials.
5.2 Seller Indemnification. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and
defend, at its sole cost and expense, and hold Purchaser, its successors and
assigns, harmless from and against and to reimburse Purchaser with respect to
any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney's fees and court costs) actually incurred of any and every kind or
character, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, asserted against or incurred
by Purchaser at any time and from time to time by reason of or arising out of
(a) the breach of any
representation or warranty of Seller set forth in Section 5.1 or any breach by
Seller of any of its covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement; (b)
the failure of Seller, in whole or in part, to perform any obligation required
to be performed by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1.; or (c) the ownership,
construction, occupancy, operation, use and maintenance by Seller or its agents
of the Property prior to the Closing Date. This indemnity applies, without
limitation, to the violation on or before the Closing Date of any Hazardous
Materials Law in effect on or before the Closing Date and any and all matters
arising out of any act, omission, event or circumstance existing or occurring on
or prior to the Closing Date (including, without limitation, the presence on the
Property or release from the Property of Hazardous Materials disposed of or
otherwise released prior to the Closing Date), regardless of whether the act,
omission, event or circumstance constituted a violation of any Hazardous
Materials Law at the time of its existence or occurrence. Subject to the
provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, the provisions of this Section shall survive
the Closing of the transaction contemplated by Section 2.1 of this Agreement and
shall continue thereafter in full force and effect for the benefit of Purchaser,
its successors and assigns. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, Purchaser may exercise any right or remedy Purchaser may have at
law or in equity should Seller fail to meet, comply with or perform its
indemnity obligations required by this Section 5.2. In the event a defect, claim
or deficiency is discovered by Purchaser prior to Closing or is noticed in
writing by Seller to Purchaser prior to Closing, Purchaser shall either
terminate the Agreement as provided herein or waive the defect, claim or
deficiency and proceed to Closing.
5.3 Covenants and Agreements of Seller. Seller covenants and agrees with
Purchaser, from the Effective Date until the Closing with respect to a Property
or earlier termination of this Agreement:
(a) Seller shall: (i) operate the Property in the ordinary
course of Seller's business and in substantially the same manner as currently
operated; and (ii) fully maintain and repair the Improvements, the Fixtures, and
the Personal Property in good condition and repair.
(b) Seller shall cause to be maintained in full force and
effect fire and extended coverage insurance upon the Property and public

coverages in effect on the date hereof).
(c) Seller shall pay when due all bills and expenses of the
Property. Seller shall not enter into or assume any new Business Agreements with
regard to the Property which are in addition to or different from those
furnished and disclosed to Purchaser and reviewed and approved pursuant to
Section 4.1, except in the ordinary course of business.
(d) Seller shall not create or permit to be created any liens,
easements or other conditions affecting any portion of the Property or the uses
thereof, except in the ordinary course of business, without the prior written
consent of Purchaser. No such lien, easement or other condition affecting the
Property which Seller creates or permits to be created shall be or constitute a
Permitted Exception until (i) such lien, easement or other condition affecting
the Property has been disclosed to Purchaser in writing prior to Closing, (ii) a
true and correct copy of all documents or instruments creating, evidencing,
affecting or relating to such lien, easement or other condition affecting the
Property has been provided to Purchaser prior to Closing, and (iii) Purchaser
has determined to proceed with Closing and accept such lien, easement or other
condition affecting the Property as a Permitted Exception, which determination
shall be conclusively presumed by Purchaser's election to proceed with Closing
following Seller's compliance with the requirements of (i) and (ii) of this
paragraph.
(e) Seller will pay, as and when due, all interest and
principal and all other charges payable under any indebtedness of Seller secured
by the Property from the date hereof until Closing, and will not suffer or
permit any default or, except in the ordinary course of business, amend or
modify the documents evidencing or securing any such indebtedness without the
prior consent of Purchaser.
(f) Seller will give to Purchaser, its attorneys, accountants
and other representatives, during normal business hours and as often as may be
reasonably requested, access to all books, records and files relating to the
Property so long as the same does not unreasonably interfere with Seller's
business operations.
(g) Seller shall not remove any Personal Property or Fixtures
from the Land or Improvements without replacing same with substantially similar
items of equal or greater value and repairing the damage, if any, to the
Property as a result of such removal, except in the ordinary course of business.
(h) During the pendency of this Agreement, Seller, its
corporate officers, directors, and agents shall not negotiate the sale or other
disposition of the Property with any person or entity other than Purchaser, and
shall not take any steps to initiate, consummate or document the sale or other
disposition of the Property, or any portion thereof, to any person or entity
other than Purchaser.
(i) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller agrees to notify
Purchaser in writing within three (3) Business Days of any offer received by,
delivered to or communicated to Seller for the purchase, sale, acquisition or
other disposition of the Property.
(j) Seller shall provide representations, warranties and
consents as may be reasonably required in connection with any public offering of
stock (the "Registered Offering") or debt obligations by Purchaser, including,
and similar in kind but not limited to, inclusion of financial statements,
summary financial information and other required
information concerning Seller, or Seller as lessee under the Lease, in any
Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Seller shall cooperate in the
preparation by Purchaser of a Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection
with the Registered Offering.
(k) Seller is sophisticated and experienced in the sale and
lease back of real property and that in proceeding with the sale and lease back
of the Properties, Seller will be relying on its investigations and examinations
of each Property and not on any representation or warranty of Purchaser not
expressly set forth in this Agreement.
5.4 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. To induce Seller to
enter into this Agreement and to sell the Property, Purchaser represents and
warrants to Seller as follows:
(a) Purchaser has duly and validly authorized and executed
this Agreement, and has full right, title, power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions provided for herein, and the

existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and is
qualified to do business in each state in which any of the Property is located.
The consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or in the Lease does
not require the approval of Purchaser's shareholders or any third party, except
such third party approvals as Purchaser has obtained or will obtain prior to the
Closing Date.
(b) The execution by Purchaser of this Agreement and the
consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby do not, and at
the Closing will not, result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of,
or constitute a default or a condition which upon notice or lapse of time or
both would ripen into a default under, any indenture, agreement, instrument or
obligation to which Purchaser is a party; and does not, and at the Closing will
not, constitute a violation of any Laws, order, rule or regulation applicable to
Purchaser of any court or of any federal, state or municipal regulatory body or
administrative agency or other governmental body having jurisdiction over
Purchaser.
(c) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to
the actual knowledge of Purchaser, threatened, before or by any judicial body or

(d) Purchaser is sophisticated and experienced in the purchase
of real property and that in proceeding with the acquisition of the Properties,
Purchaser will be relying on its Investigations and examinations of each
Property and not on any representation or warranty of Seller not expressly set
forth in this Agreement.
5.5 Survival. Each of the representations, warranties and covenants
contained in this Article V is intended for the benefit of Seller or Purchaser,
as the case may be, and any underwriter of the Registered Offering. Each of said
representations, warranties and covenants shall survive the Closing for a period
of one (1) year, at which time they shall expire unless prior to such time the
party receiving such representations, warranties and covenants has filed a legal
action alleging a breach of one or more of the representations, warranties or
covenants. No investigation, audit, inspection, review or the like conducted by
or on behalf of the party receiving such representations, warranties or
covenants shall be deemed to terminate the effect of any such representations,
warranties and covenants, it being understood that such party has the right to
rely thereon and that each such representation, warranty and covenant
constitutes a material inducement to execute this Agreement and to close the
transaction contemplated hereby.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Modifications. This Agreement, together with the
other documents, instruments and agreements heretofore or hereinafter entered
into in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, embody and
constitute the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated herein, and all prior or contemporaneous agreements,
understandings, representations and statements (oral or written) are merged into
this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in
writing signed by the Party against whom the enforcement of such waiver,
modification, amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to
the extent set forth in such instrument.

10.9 Waiver of Conditions. Any Party may at any time or times, at its

waiver shall be effective only if contained in a writing signed by such Party.
No waiver by a Party of any breach of this Agreement or of any warranty or

any other breach by such other Party (whether preceding or succeeding and
whether or not of the same or similar nature), and no acceptance of payment or
performance by a Party after any breach by the other Party shall be deemed to be
a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or of any representation or warranty
hereunder by such other Party, whether or not the first Party knows of such
breach at the time it accepts such payment or performance. No failure or delay
by a Party to exercise any right it may have by reason of the default of the

of the contemplated transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
acknowledged that Purchaser is in the process of consummating the Registered

other Party by reason of a breach of this Agreement, a reasonable attorneys' fee
as fixed by the court shall be included in such judgment.
10.12 Remedies Cumulative. Except as herein expressly set forth, no
remedy conferred upon a Party by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given herein or now or
hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.

into in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, are joint and several.
10.18 Non-Assignable Agreement. Seller hereby covenants and agrees to use

upon. If and to the extent that any of the Business Agreements, Warranties,
Permits and Engineering Documents are not assignable without the consent or
approval of a third party, and either (a) Purchaser does not request that Seller
obtain such approval, or (b) Seller is unable to obtain such approval following
Purchaser's request that Seller obtain such consent or approval, then, in either
of such cases, and subject to the Purchaser's rights as hereinafter provided,
