ARTICLE II.
TITLE AND SURVEY
Section 2.1 Contingency Period. During the period beginning on the
------------------
Effective Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Standard Time) on that date
which is twenty (20) days following the Effective Date (hereinafter referred to
as the "Contingency Period"), Buyer shall have the right to review: (a) a
------------------
current preliminary title report covering each Property and all underlying
exceptions, which shall be obtained by Seller, at Seller's cost; (b) copies of
the most recent property tax bills for each Property, (c) a copy of the most
current survey of the Real Property in Seller's possession, if any, (d) copies
of the Leases, certified rent roll and Operating Agreements (the items referred
to in clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 2.1 are hereinafter referred to as
the "Title Contingency Items"). Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
-----------------------
Buyer the Title Contingency Items promptly after the Effective Date but in no
event later than ten (10) days after the Effective Date. During the Contingency
Period, Buyer shall also have the right to review a new or updated survey of the
Real Property prepared by a licensed surveyor or engineer, obtained by Buyer at
Buyer's sole cost (the "Survey").
------
Section 2.2 Title Examination. Buyer shall notify Seller in a
-----------------
reasonably detailed writing (the "Title Notice") prior to the expiration of the
------------
Contingency Period which exceptions to title (including survey matters), if any,
will not be accepted by Buyer and the specific reasonable grounds for
disapproval thereof. Any exception to title which Buyer fails to disapprove
prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period shall be deemed conclusively
to have been approved by Buyer. If Buyer notifies Seller in writing that Buyer
objects to an exception to title, then Seller shall have five (5) business days
after receipt of the Title Notice to notify Buyer that Seller either (a) will
remove such objectionable exception from title on or before the Closing;
provided that Seller may extend the Closing for such period as shall be required
to effect such cure, but not beyond fifteen (15) days; or (b) elects not to
cause such exception to be removed (a "Non-Removal Notice"). If Seller fails to
------------------
notify Buyer of its election within said five (5) day period, then Seller shall
be deemed to have delivered a Non-Removal Notice as to that exception. The
procurement by Seller of a commitment for the issuance of the Title Policy or an
endorsement thereto reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and insuring Buyer against
any title exception which was disapproved pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be
deemed a cure by Seller of such disapproval. If Seller gives (or is deemed to
have given) Buyer a Non-Removal Notice, then Buyer shall have two (2) business
days within which to notify Seller in writing that Buyer elects to either (i)
nevertheless proceed with the purchase and take title to the Properties subject
to such exceptions, or (ii) terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions
of Section 3.5 below. If Buyer fails to notify Seller in writing of its election
within said two (2) business day period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have
elected to proceed with the purchase and take title to the Properties subject to
such exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer need not disapprove any
monetary lien representing monies owed, and Seller hereby agrees to cause all
such monetary
5
liens (other than non-delinquent ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments)
to be removed at or prior to Closing. If Seller fails to remove any such
monetary lien prior to Closing, then Buyer shall apply such portion of the
Purchase Price as is necessary to cause the removal of such items prior to
Closing, and the proceeds of Escrow to be otherwise distributed to Seller upon
Closing shall be reduced by the amount so applied. The operation of the notice
and approval provisions of this Section 2.2 shall extend the Contingency Period
only as to those matters which Buyer has disapproved as of the original
expiration of the Contingency Period and only until such time as Buyer has
either approved (or have been deemed to approved) the condition of title to the
Real Property or elected to terminate this Agreement.
Section 2.3 Permitted Exceptions. The Properties shall be conveyed
--------------------
subject to the following matters, which are hereinafter referred to as the
"Permitted Exceptions":
--------------------
(a) those matters that either approved or deemed approved by Buyer in
accordance with Section 2.2 hereof;
(b) the rights of tenants under the Leases;
(c) the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not
yet due and payable as of the date of Closing, subject to proration as herein
provided;
(d) local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental
regulations, including but not limited to building and zoning laws, ordinances
and regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Properties; and
(e) items shown on the Survey and not objected to by Buyer, or waived
or deemed waived by Buyer in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof.
Section 2.4 Conveyance of Title. At Closing, Seller shall convey and
-------------------
transfer to Buyer fee simple title to the Real Property by execution and
delivery of a Deed (as defined in Section 4.2(a) hereof) respecting each
Property individually. Evidence of delivery of such title shall be the issuance
by Chicago Title Company (the "Title Company"), or another national title
-------------
company mutually approved, by Buyer and Seller, of a CLTA Standard Coverage
Owner's Policy of Title Insurance (the "Title Policy") covering the Real
------------
Property, in the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price, showing fee title to
each Property vested exclusively in Buyer, subject only to the Permitted
Exceptions. Buyer may obtain an ALTA Extended Coverage Owner's Policy of Title
Insurance so long as the Closing is not thereby delayed. Buyer shall pay the
additional premium for such policy and the cost of any required ALTA survey.

REVIEW OF PROPERTIES

Section 3.1 Right of Inspection. During the Contingency Period, Buyer
-------------------
shall, at its own cost and expense, have the right to make a physical inspection
of the Real Property, including an inspection of the environmental condition
thereof pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to examine at
each Property (or the property manager's office, as the case may be) documents
and files located at each Property or the property manager's office concerning
the leasing, maintenance and operation of each Property, but excluding Seller's
partnership or corporate records, internal memoranda, financial projections,
budgets, appraisals, accounting and tax records and similar proprietary,
confidential or privileged information (collectively, the "Confidential
------------
Documents"). If required by law, Seller shall use its best efforts to provide a
---------
Natural Hazards Disclosure Report to Buyer within fifteen (15) business days of
the opening of Escrow.
Any on-site inspections of the Properties shall occur only (i) at reasonable
times agreed upon by Seller and Buyer after at least one (1) business day's
prior written notice to Seller; (ii) in a manner that will not unreasonably
damage the Properties, unreasonably disturb or disrupt the business activities
of Seller or unreasonably interfere with the use of the Properties by Seller or
its tenants; and (iii) after delivery of evidence satisfactory to Seller that
adequate public liability and other insurance respecting such work has been
obtained by Buyer naming as additional insureds Seller and any other person or
entity designated by Seller as having an insurable interest in the same. Seller
may have a representative present during any such inspections. If Buyer desires
to do any invasive testing at the Properties, Buyer shall do so only after
notifying Seller and obtaining Seller's prior written consent thereto, which
consent may be subject to any terms and conditions imposed by Seller in its sole
discretion, including, without limitation, the prompt restoration of the
Properties to substantially its condition prior to any such inspections or
tests, at Buyer's sole cost and expense. Buyer shall keep the Properties free
and clear of any liens arising out of Buyer's entry onto or inspection of the
Properties. At Seller's option, Buyer will furnish to Seller copies of any
reports received by Buyer relating to any inspection of the Properties, without
representation or warranty of any kind (express, implied or otherwise) as to the
content and accuracy thereof, and at no charge to Seller other than the costs of
reproduction. Buyer agrees to protect, indemnify, defend (with counsel
satisfactory to Seller) and hold Seller harmless from and against any claim for
liabilities, losses, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees),
damages or injuries arising out of, or directly resulting from the inspection of
the Properties by Buyer or its agents or consultants, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such obligation to indemnify and
hold harmless Seller shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
Section 3.2 Environmental Reports. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (1) BUYER
---------------------
HAS RECEIVED COPIES OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS LISTED ON EXHIBIT C ATTACHED
---------
HERETO WITHOUT REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY, AND (2) IF SELLER DELIVERS ANY
ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS TO BUYER, BUYER WILL
7
ACKNOWLEDGE IN WRITING THAT IT HAS RECEIVED SUCH REPORTS PROMPTLY UPON RECEIPT
THEREOF. SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION WHATSOEVER FOR ANY
INACCURACY IN OR OMISSION FROM ANY ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT. BUYER SHALL HAVE NO
CLAIMS AGAINST THE PREPARER OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT PROVIDED BY SELLER.
BUYER HAS CONDUCTED, OR WILL CONDUCT PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE CONTINGENCY
PERIOD, ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION OF THE PROPERTIES
TO THE EXTENT BUYER DEEMS SUCH AN INVESTIGATION TO BE NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE.
Section 3.3 Right of Termination. Prior to the expiration of the
--------------------
Contingency Period, Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice stating which
Operating Agreements, if any, Buyer has disapproved. Buyer's disapproval of any
Operating Agreements shall be deemed a termination of this Agreement, unless
Seller agrees within three (3) business days to terminate any disapproved
Operating Agreements effective as of Closing (all Operating Agreements, minus
any Operating Agreements Seller has agreed to remove at Closing are hereinafter
referred to as the "Approved Operating Agreements"). Additionally, if for any
-----------------------------
reason whatsoever Buyer determines that the Properties or any aspect thereof is
unsuitable for Buyer's acquisition, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of
the Contingency Period, and if Buyer gives such notice of termination within the
Contingency Period, then this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.5 below. If Buyer fails to give Seller a notice of
termination or fails to disapprove of any Operating Agreements prior to the
expiration of the Contingency Period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have
approved all aspects of the Properties, including, but not limited to all
Operating Agreements (except title and survey, which shall be governed by
Article II hereof) and to have elected to proceed with the purchase of the
Properties pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 3.4 Review of Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Seller shall have
-------------------------------------
a one time obligation to deliver to each tenant of each Property an estoppel
certificate in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 (the
-----------
"Tenant Estoppels") and shall request that the tenants complete and sign the
----------------
Tenant Estoppels and return them to Seller; provided, however, that Seller shall
use the form of tenant estoppel certificate required by Buyer's lender if Buyer
provides such form to Seller within five (5) business days of the Effective
Date. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an executed Tenant Estoppel
from each of the tenants at each Property by that date which is five (5) days
prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period (the "Tenant Estoppel Delivery
------------------------
Date") but shall deliver copies of the completed Tenant Estoppels to Buyer as
----
Seller receives them. Seller shall be obligated to obtain Tenant Estoppels from
tenants occupying one hundred percent (100%) of the rentable area within the
Properties. Seller shall have the option to deliver a seller estoppel
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 hereto ("Seller Estoppel")
----------- ---------------
in lieu of any required Tenant Estoppels that Seller is unable to obtain. If
Seller elects to deliver any Seller Estoppel(s), Seller shall deliver such
8
Seller Estoppel(s) to Buyer no later than three (3) business days following the
Tenant Estoppel Delivery Date. Buyer shall notify Seller within two (2) business
days of its receipt of each Tenant Estoppel or Seller Estoppel that such Tenant
Estoppel or Seller Estoppel is not reasonably acceptable to Buyer along with the
detailed reasons for such determination. If Buyer fails to give notice of its
disapproval of the Tenant Estoppel or Seller Estoppel within such two (2)
business day period, then such Tenant Estoppel or Seller Estoppel shall be
deemed to be acceptable to Buyer. If Seller fails to deliver Tenant Estoppels or
Seller Estoppels that are reasonably acceptable to Buyer on or before that date
which is five (5) days following the Tenant Estoppel Delivery Date, then Buyer
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within five (5) business days
following the Tenant Estoppel Delivery Date pursuant to the provisions of
Section 3.5. If Buyer fails to give Seller a timely notice of termination as set
forth above, then Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the Tenant Estoppels
(or Seller Estoppels, if applicable) and to have elected to proceed with the
purchase of the Properties pursuant to the terms hereof. If a Tenant Estoppel is
received from a tenant after Seller provides a Seller Estoppel, then such Tenant
Estoppel shall be substituted for said Seller Estoppel and Seller shall have no
further liability thereunder, provided that the Tenant Estoppel contains no
material changes or, if materially changed, is otherwise acceptable to Buyer.
The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall survive the Closing.
Section 3.5 Rights Upon Termination. If this Agreement is terminated
-----------------------
by Buyer in the manner and within the applicable time period(s) provided
pursuant to any of Sections 2.2, 3.3, 3.4, 5.3(b) or Article VII, or because of
a failure of a condition precedent to Buyer's obligations hereunder as set forth
in Section 4.6 below, then (i) the Deposit plus all accrued interest thereon
shall be returned to Buyer, (ii) all instruments in Escrow shall be returned to
the party depositing the same, (iii) Buyer shall return all items previously
delivered by Seller to Buyer, (iv) Buyer and Seller shall each pay one-half (%2)
of all Escrow and title cancellation charges, and (iv) neither party shall have
any further rights, obligations or liabilities whatsoever to the other party
concerning the Properties by reason of this Agreement, except for any indemnity
obligations of either party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or
otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement to survive termination. The
provisions of this Section 3.5 shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE IV.

--------------
contemplated hereby (the "Closing") shall be consummated on or before that day
-------

occur on the next following business day (the "Closing Date"). Notwithstanding
------------

Properties during the entire day upon which Closing occurs. Such prorated items
include without limitation the following:
(i) Rents for the calendar month in which Closing occurs, as
determined by Seller's rent roll;
(ii) taxes and assessments (including personal property taxes
on the Personal Property) levied against the Properties;
(iii) utility charges for which Seller is liable, if any, such
charges to be apportioned at Closing on the basis of the most recent meter
reading occurring prior to Closing (dated not more than fifteen (15) days prior
to Closing) or, if unmetered, on the basis of a current xxxx for each such
utility;
(iv) all amounts payable with respect to leases entered into,

the extent such Security Deposits have not been applied against delinquent Rents

account of Seller all refundable cash or other deposits posted with utility
companies serving each Property, or, at Seller's option, Seller shall be
entitled to receive and retain such refundable cash and deposits;
(ii) Any taxes paid at or prior to Closing shall be prorated
based upon the amounts actually paid. If taxes and assessments due and payable
during the year of Closing have not been paid before Closing, Seller shall be
charged at Closing an amount equal to that portion of such taxes and assessments
which relates to the period before Closing and Buyer shall pay the taxes and
assessments prior to their becoming delinquent. Any such apportionment made with
respect to a tax year for which the tax rate or assessed valuation, or both,
have not yet been fixed shall be based upon the tax rate and/or assessed
valuation fixed. To the extent that the actual taxes and assessments for the
current year differ from the amount apportioned at Closing, the parties shall
make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves within
thirty (30) days after such amounts are determined following Closing, subject to
the provisions of Section 4.4(d) hereof. Buyer shall pay all supplemental taxes
resulting from the change in
12
ownership and reassessment occurring as the result of the Closing pursuant to
this Agreement;
(iii) As to utility charges referred to in Section 4.4(a)(iii)
hereof, Seller may upon notice to Buyer elect to pay one or more of all of said
items accrued to the date hereinabove fixed for apportionment directly to the
person or entity entitled thereto, and to the extent Seller so elects, such item
shall not be apportioned hereunder, and Seller's obligation to pay such item
directly in such case shall survive the Closing or any termination of this
Agreement;
(iv) Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of (A) all
Tenant Inducement Costs (as hereinafter defined) and Leasing Commissions (as
hereinafter defined) which become due and payable (whether before or after
Closing) as a result of any new Lease, or renewals, amendments or expansions of
the existing Lease, signed after the Effective Date and, if required, approved
or deemed approved in accordance with Section 5.3(b) hereof; and (B) all Tenant
Inducement Costs and Leasing Commissions with respect to new Leases, or
renewals, amendments or expansions of the existing Lease, signed or entered into
from and after the date of Closing. The term "Tenant Inducement Costs" shall
-----------------------
mean any payments required under a Lease to be paid by the landlord thereunder
to or for the benefit of the tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a
tenant inducement, including specifically, without limitation, tenant
improvement costs, lease buyout costs, and moving, design, refurbishment, free
rent, and club membership allowances. The term "Leasing Commissions" includes
-------------------
all expenses connected with or arising out of the negotiation, execution and
delivery of the Leases executed after the Effective Date, including brokers'
commissions and leasing fees;
(v) Unpaid and delinquent Rent collected by Seller and Buyer
after the date of Closing shall be delivered as follows: (a) if Seller collects

is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of Closing and any period
thereafter, and (b) if Buyer collects any unpaid or delinquent Rent from the
Properties, Buyer shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof,
deliver to Seller any such Rent which Seller is entitled to hereunder relating
to the period prior to the date of Closing. Seller and Buyer agree that all Rent
received by Seller or Buyer from all tenants of a Property within the first
ninety (90) day period after the date of Closing shall be applied first to
delinquent Rent of any tenant of such Property, if any, in the order of their
maturity, and then to current Rent of such Property, and (ii) all Rent received
by Seller or Buyer from all tenants of a Property after the first ninety (90)
day period after the date of Closing shall be applied first to current Rent of
all tenants of such Property and then to delinquent Rent of any tenant of such
Property, if any, in the inverse order of maturity.
Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts after Closing to collect all
Rents in the usual course of Buyer's operation of the Properties, but Buyer will
not be
13
obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect
delinquent Rents. Seller may attempt to collect any delinquent Rents owed to
Seller and, after prior written notice to Buyer, may institute any lawsuit or
collection procedures, but may not evict any tenant. If there shall be any Rents
or other charges under any Leases which, although relating to a period prior to
Closing, do not become due and payable until after Closing or are paid prior to
Closing but are subject to adjustment after Closing (such as year end common
area expense reimbursements and the like), then any Rents or charges of such
type received by Buyer or its agents or Seller or its agents subsequent to
Closing shall, to the extent applicable to a period extending through the
Closing, be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of Closing and Seller's portion
thereof shall be remitted promptly to Seller by Buyer together with a detailed
accounting certified by Buyer's chief financial officer.
(c) Seller may prosecute an appeal of the real property tax assessment
for any tax years to and including the tax year in which the Closing occurs, and
may take related action which Seller deems appropriate in connection therewith.
Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in connection with such appeal and collection
of a refund of real property taxes paid, provided that Buyer shall not be
obligated to incur any material cost in doing so. Seller owns and holds all
right, title and interest in and to such appeal and refund respecting time
periods up to (but not including) the Closing Date, and all amounts payable in
connection therewith shall be paid directly to Seller by the applicable
authorities. If such refund or any part thereof is received by Buyer, then Buyer
shall promptly pay such amount to Seller. Any refund received by Seller shall be
distributed as follows: first, to reimburse Seller for all costs incurred in
connection with the appeal; second, with respect to refunds payable to tenants
of the Real Property pursuant to the Leases, to such tenants in accordance with
the terms of such Leases; and third, to Seller to the extent such appeal covers
the period prior to the Closing; and to Buyer to the extent such appeal covers
the period as of the Closing and thereafter. ,If and to the extent any such
appeal covers the period after the Closing, Buyer shall have the right to
participate in such appeal.
(d) Except as otherwise provided herein, any revenue or expense amount
which cannot be ascertained with certainty as of Closing shall be prorated on
the basis of the parties' reasonable estimates of such amount, and shall be the
subject of a final proration sixty (60) days after Closing, or as soon
thereafter as the precise amounts can be ascertained. Buyer shall promptly
notify Seller when it becomes aware that any such estimated amount has been
ascertained. Once all revenue and expense amounts have been ascertained, Buyer
shall prepare, and certify as correct, a final proration statement which shall
be subject to Seller's approval. Upon Seller's acceptance and approval of any
final proration statement submitted by Buyer, such statement shall be
conclusively deemed to be accurate and final.
(e) The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall survive Closing.
