23. CLOSING COSTS.
(a) Closing Costs. Seller and Buyer agree to pay closing costs as
indicated in this Agreement and in the escrow instructions attached hereto as
Exhibit F, and by this reference incorporated herein (the "Escrow
Instructions"). At XXX, Seller shall pay (i) the costs of releasing all liens,
judgments, and other encumbrances that are to be released and of recording such
releases, (ii) the fees and costs due Escrow Agent for its services, (iii) the
transfer tax associated with the sale of the Property, if any, and (iv) all
other costs to be paid by Seller under this Agreement. Except as otherwise
provided for in this Agreement, Seller and Buyer will each be solely responsible
for and bear all of their own respective expenses, including, without
limitation, expenses of legal counsel, accountants, and other advisors incurred
at any time in connection with pursuing or consummating the transaction
contemplated herein. Real estate taxes shall be prorated based upon the current
valuation and latest available tax rates. All prorations shall be calculated
through escrow as of XXX based upon the latest available information, including,
without limitation, a credit to Buyer for any rent prepaid by Tenant for the
period beginning with and
including the date on which the closing occurs through and including the last
day of the month in which the closing occurs. All other credits to Buyer shall
be similarly prorated. Any other closing costs not specifically designated as
the responsibility of either Party in the Escrow Instructions or in this
Agreement shall be paid by Seller and Buyer according to the usual and customary
allocation of the same by Escrow Agent. Seller agrees that all closing costs
payable by Seller shall be deducted from Seller's proceeds otherwise payable to
Seller at XXX. Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Agent sufficient cash to pay all
of Buyer's closing costs. Except as provided in this Section 23(a), Seller and
Buyer shall each bear their own costs in regard to this Agreement.
(b) Post-Closing Adjustment. If after XXX, the parties discover any
errors in adjustments and apportionments or additional information becomes
available which would render the closing prorations materially inaccurate, the
same shall be corrected as soon after their discovery as possible. The provision
of this Section 23(b) shall survive XXX except that no adjustment shall be made
later than two (2) months after XXX unless prior to such date the Party seeking
the adjustment shall have delivered a written notice to the other Party
specifying the nature and basis for such claim. In the event that such claim is
valid, the Party against whom the claim is sought shall have ten (10) days in
which to remit any adjustment due.
(c) Instructions. This Agreement, together with the Escrow
Instructions, shall constitute escrow instructions for the transaction
contemplated herein. Such escrow instructions shall be construed as applying
principally to Escrow Agent's employment.
24. ESCROW CANCELLATION CHARGES. If escrow fails to close because of
Seller's default, Seller shall be liable for any cancellation charges of Escrow
Agent. If escrow fails to close because of Buyer's default, Buyer shall be
liable for any cancellation charges of Escrow Agent. If escrow fails to close
for any other reason, Seller and Buyer shall each be liable for one-half of any
cancellation charges of Escrow Agent. The provisions of this Section 24 shall
survive cancellation of this Agreement.
25. APPROVALS. Concerning all matters in this Agreement requiring the
consent or approval of any Party, the Parties agree that any such consent or
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld unless otherwise provided in this
Agreement.
26. RELEASES. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Seller and
anyone claiming through Seller hereby releases Tenant from any and all claims of
whatever kind or nature, in law or equity, whether now known or unknown to
Seller, whether contingent or matured, that Seller may now have or hereafter
acquire against Tenant for any costs, loss, liability, damage, expenses, demand,
action or cause of action arising from or related to the Lease arising from
events occurring prior to XXX.
27. ADDITIONAL ACTS. The Parties agree to execute promptly such other
documents and to perform such other acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry
out the purpose and intent of this Agreement.
28. GOVERNING LAW/JURISDICTION/VENUE. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed or enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona.
In regard to any litigation which may arise in regard to this Agreement, the
Parties shall and do hereby submit to the jurisdiction of and the Parties hereby
agree that the proper venue shall be in the United States District Court for the
District of Arizona in Phoenix and in the Superior Court of Arizona in Maricopa
County, Arizona.

results of negotiations among the Parties, each of which has been represented by
counsel of its own choosing, and neither of which has acted under any duress or
compulsion, whether legal, economic or otherwise. Consequently, the terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance
with their usual and customary meanings, and the Parties each hereby waive the
application of any rule of law which would otherwise be applicable in connection
with the interpretation and construction of this Agreement that ambiguous or
conflicting terms or provisions contained in this Agreement shall be interpreted
or construed against the Party whose attorney prepared the executed Agreement or
any earlier draft of the same.
30. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement. However, if
this Agreement requires any act to be done or action to be taken on a date which
is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such act or
action shall be deemed to have been validly done or taken if done or taken on
the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, and
the successive periods shall be deemed extended accordingly.
31. INTERPRETATION. If there is any specific and direct conflict between,
or any ambiguity resulting from, the terms and provisions of this Agreement and
the terms and provisions of any document, instrument or other agreement executed
in connection herewith or in furtherance hereof, including any Exhibits hereto,
the same shall be consistently interpreted in such manner as to give effect to

remaining provisions shall nevertheless be kept in effect.
36. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between
the Parties and supersedes all prior agreements, oral or written, with respect
to the subject matter hereof. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
construed as a whole and not strictly for or against any Party.
37. SEC S-X 3-14 Audit. Seller acknowledges that Buyer may elect to assign
all of its right, title and interest in and to this Agreement to a company that
is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended ("Registered Company"), promoted by the Buyer or to an affiliate of a
Registered Company (a "Registered Company Affiliate"). In the event Buyer's
assignee under this Agreement is a Registered Company or a Registered Company
Affiliate, the Registered Company will be required to make certain filings with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission required under SEC Rule 3-14 of
Regulation S-X (the "SEC Filings") that relate to the most recent
pre-acquisition fiscal year (the "Audited Year") for the Property. To assist the
Registered Company with the preparation of the SEC Filings, Seller agrees to
provide Buyer and the Registered Company with financial information regarding
the Property for the Audited Year requested by Buyer, the Registered Company,
and/or Buyer's or the Registered Company's auditors. Such information may
include, but is not limited to, bank statements, operating statements, general
ledgers, cash receipts schedules, invoices for expenses and capital
improvements, insurance documentation, and accounts receivable aging related to
the Property ("SEC Filing Information"). Seller shall deliver the SEC Filing
Information requested by Buyer, the Registered Company and/or Buyer's or the
Registered Company's auditors prior to the expiration of the Study Period, and
Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer, the Registered Company and Buyer's or the
Registered Company's auditors regarding any inquiries by Buyer, the Registered
Company and Buyer's or the Registered Company's auditors following receipt of
such information, including delivery by Seller of an executed representation
letter prior to XXX in form and substance requested by Buyer's or the Registered
Company's auditors ("SEC Filings Letter"). A sample SEC Filings Letter is
attached to the Purchase Agreement as Exhibit G; however, Buyer's and/or the
Registered Company's auditors may require additions and/or revisions to such
letter following review of the SEC Filing Information provided by Seller. Seller
consents to the disclosure of the SEC Filing Information in any SEC Filings by
the Registered Company. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for Seller's reasonable
costs associated with providing the SEC Filing Information. The provisions of
this Section 37 shall survive the XXX for a period of one (1) year.
