(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) one-half of 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. Buyer shall pay
one-half of the fees and costs due Escrow Agent for its services. 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 not be prorated since the real
estate taxes are reimbursed by Tenant pursuant to the Lease. 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. Escrow Agent shall disburse the funds strictly in
accordance with the Closing Statement.
(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. SELLER OR BUYER EXCHANGE. Should either Buyer or Seller choose to
exchange for other property of like kind, each agrees to cooperate in this
exchange under IRS Section 1031. This contemplated exchange shall not impose
upon either Party any additional liability or financial obligation, and each
agrees to hold the other harmless from any liability that might arise from such
exchange. This Agreement is not subject to or contingent upon either parties
ability to acquire a suitable exchange property or effectuate an exchange. In
the event any exchange contemplated by either party should fail to occur, for
whatever reason, the sale of the Property shall nonetheless be consummated as
provided herein.
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

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

or construed against the Party whose attorney prepared the executed Agreement or

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

is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,

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.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Buyer have executed this Agreement as of
the Effective Date.
