Seller’s obligations to sell the Property under this Agreement are expressly contingent upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions (“Seller’s Contingencies”), and Seller shall not be required to close under this Agreement unless all of the following conditions have been satisfied or waived by Seller:

ARTICLE 13. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE PROPERTY; CONDEMNATION. If, between the Effective Date and Close of Escrow, the Property is materially damaged or destroyed, or a taking or condemnation of all, or any portion, of the Property is threatened or commenced, Buyer may elect, in writing given within five (5) days after receipt of notice from Seller (and which Seller shall promptly notify Buyer upon discovery of any such damage, taking or condemnation) of such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation, accompanied by information regarding the amount and payment of insurance or condemnation proceeds, to terminate this Agreement or to purchase the Property without regard to such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation. If Buyer fails to notify Escrow Agent and Seller of such election within such five (5) day period, Buyer will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the purchase of the Property without regard to such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation. In the event that Buyer elects to purchase, Seller shall have no obligation to repair or replace any portion of the Property damaged or destroyed, nor shall the Purchase Price be adjusted. “Materially damaged or destroyed” as used herein shall mean damage or
destruction the estimated cost of repair or replacement of which would exceed $100,000. If, between the Effective Date and Close of Escrow, the Property sustains non material damage, Seller assumes the risk for such non material damage and shall credit Buyer at Close of Escrow with the estimated cost to repair such damage. Estimates of repair costs hereunder shall be made in each case by a licensed general contractor approved by Buyer and Seller, based only upon the cost to repair such damage but not on full replacement value.
If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as provided above, Seller shall be entitled to receive any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards payable as a result of such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation. If Buyer elects to purchase the Property despite such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation, Buyer shall be entitled to receive from Seller any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards payable as a result of such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, in the event Seller determines that the amount of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards payable as a result of such damage, destruction, taking or condemnation exceeds the Purchase Price, Seller may elect, within ten (10) Business Days following confirmation of the insurance settlement, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement and, upon any such termination, to receive and retain any such insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
ARTICLE 14. MAINTENANCE AND MANAGEMENT OF THE PROPERTY.
14.1 Seller Will Continue to Maintain. From the Effective Date until Close of Escrow, Seller agrees to continue to manage and maintain the Property using reasonable efforts consistent with such management and maintenance standards as Seller has employed in managing and maintaining the Property prior to the Effective Date.
14.2 Seller Will Not Enter Long Term Contracts. Prior to Close of Escrow, Seller will not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, enter into or renew any contract or agreement pertaining to the management or maintenance of the Property which will expire more than thirty (30) days after Close of Escrow. If Seller desires to take any of the actions described above, Seller shall so notify Buyer. Buyer shall have five (5) days from receipt of Seller’s notice to object in writing to any proposed action described in Seller’s notice; Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such proposed action. Buyer’s failure to notify Seller on a timely basis of any objection shall conclusively be deemed approval by Buyer.
14.3 Termination of Management Contract. Effective upon Close of Escrow, Seller shall terminate any existing property management contract relating to the Property. Prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Buyer shall notify Seller of those Service Agreements (if any) that Buyer does not wish to assume at Closing. Seller shall cause all of such Service Agreements to be terminated at or prior to Closing, and Buyer shall assume the other Service Agreements not objected to by Buyer at Closing. However, if any of the Service Agreements that Buyer directs Seller to terminate cannot be terminated within the aforesaid time period, then Seller shall be responsible for all fees payable thereunder through the Closing Date, and Buyer shall assume the responsibilities thereunder, including all fees payable, beginning on the Closing Date until such termination is effective.
14.4 Notice of Sale to Tenants. If Borrower requests prior to Close of Escrow, Seller shall provide Buyer with notices addressed to all tenants notifying them of the sale to Buyer and directing them to thereafter pay rent at such place and in such manner as Buyer shall direct.

15.2 Brokerage Commissions. Each party represents and warrants to the other that, other than Xxxxx & Xxxxx Company and Xxx & Associates (collectively, “Brokers”), which Brokers will be entitled to commission only upon Close of Escrow to be paid by Seller pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Xxxxx & Xxxxx, no broker, finder or other person is entitled to a commission, finder’s fee or other compensation in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each party shall indemnify, defend and hold the other party harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from the claim of any other broker, finder or other person for such compensation, arising under, through, or as a result of, the act or omission of such party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement.

15.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
15.8 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any action, suit or other proceeding to enforce this Agreement or arising out of the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, condition, agreement or provision hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover of and from the other party all of such prevailing party’s costs and expenses of suit, including all reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs due in connection with such proceeding, including, without limitation, any appellate, bankruptcy or administrative proceedings.

15.11 No Waiver. The waiver by either party of the performance of any covenant, condition or promise shall not invalidate this Agreement and shall not be considered a waiver of any other covenant, condition or promise. No such waiver shall constitute a waiver of the time for performing any other act or an identical act required to be performed at a later time. The exercise of any remedy provided in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any remedy
provided by law or in equity, and the provision in this Agreement of any remedy shall not exclude any other remedy unless such remedy is expressly excluded hereby.

In the event of a termination of this Agreement in the manner specifically authorized by any provision hereof, and provided that neither party is then in default hereunder, this Agreement, and each party’s respective obligations hereunder (except those which are expressly designated herein as surviving termination), shall, without notice, automatically terminate and be of no further force or effect.
15.17 Ownership of Test Data. Buyer agrees that the results of any inspection, test or study, and any reports or conclusions reached by Buyer, or any agent or subcontractor of Buyer, relating in any manner to the Property have been or will promptly be disclosed to Seller. If Escrow does not close for any reason, Buyer agrees that all data, test results, conclusions, reports or studies prepared or performed for Buyer with respect to the Property shall be conveyed or transferred to Seller at no cost to Seller and shall thereafter become the sole and separate property of Seller; provided, however, Buyer shall have no obligation to convey or transfer any of the following: (i) internal analyses, (ii) attorney or accountant work product, (iii) attorney client privileged documents, (iv) internal correspondence of Buyer or any direct or indirect owner of any beneficial interest in Buyer, and (v) such other information in the possession or control of Buyer or any direct or indirect owner of any beneficial interest in Buyer which such party reasonably deems proprietary or confidential.
15.18 Confidentiality. Buyer shall keep confidential, and not disclose to any person or entity, any information which may be derived from any inspection, test or study relating to the Property conducted by or on behalf of Buyer, as well as any report, statement, document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, excluding, however,
information that is available from public records, information that is or becomes generally available to the public because of release by Seller or information that must be released under applicable law, the Securities Exchange Act (as amended), as required by the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission or a valid final judicial or administrative order, including, without limitation, the filing of an 8-K or 10-Q (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, Buyer may disclose Confidential Information, to the extent such disclosure is necessary or required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to Buyer’s officers or partners (if Buyer is a corporation or partnership), employees, agents, attorneys, consultants and prospective lenders (collectively, “Buyer’s Representatives”). Prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to Buyer’s Representatives, Buyer shall instruct Buyer’s Representatives to keep the information confidential in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. This Paragraph 15.18 shall terminate at Close of Escrow if Buyer completes the purchase of the Property. In the event Buyer does not purchase the Property for any reason, Buyer shall return to Seller all Confidential Information and the provisions of this Paragraph 15.18 shall thereafter continue to apply, in perpetuity, to all Confidential Information received by Buyer.
15.19 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; JUDICIAL REFERENCE AGREEMENT. To the fullest extent permitted by law, buyer and seller HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY in any action, proceeding and/or hearing (hereinafter, a “Claim”) on any matter whatsoever arising out of, or in any way connected with, this agreement, the property or any agreement executed in connection with this agreement, or the enforcement of any remedy under any law, statute, or regulation. Neither party will seek to consolidate any such action in which a jury has been waived, with any other action in which a jury trial cannot or has not been waived. Buyer and Seller each represent and warrant that: (i) each has received the advice of counsel with respect to this waiver of jury trial, (ii) this waiver of jury trial is made knowingly and voluntarily, and (iii) no person on behalf of seller or Buyer has made any representation of fact to induce this waiver of trial by jury. Each party is hereby authorized to file this document with the clerk or judge of any court of competent jurisdiction as a statutory written consent to waiver of trial by jury by the parties.
15.19.1 Judicial Reference. In the event the jury trial waiver provisions set forth above are not permitted for any reason, Seller and Buyer hereby agree: (i) each Claim shall be determined by a consensual general judicial reference (the “Reference”) pursuant to the provisions of Section 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as such statutes may be amended or modified from time to time; (ii) upon a written request, or upon an appropriate motion by either Seller or Buyer, any pending action relating to any Claim and every Claim shall be heard by a single Referee (as defined below) who shall then try all issues (including any and all questions of law and questions of fact relating thereto), and issue findings of fact and conclusions of law and report a statement of decision. The Referee’s statement of decision will constitute the conclusive determination of the Claim. Seller and Buyer agree that the Referee shall have the power to issue all legal and equitable relief appropriate under the circumstances before the Referee; (iii) Seller and Buyer shall promptly and diligently cooperate with one another and the Referee, and shall perform such acts as may be necessary to obtain prompt and expeditious resolution of all Claims in accordance with the terms of this Section 15.19; (iv) either Seller or Buyer may file the Referee’s findings, conclusions and statement with the clerk or judge of any appropriate court, file a motion to confirm the Referee’s report and have judgment entered thereon. If the report is
deemed incomplete by such court, the Referee may be required to complete the report and resubmit it; (v) Seller and Buyer will each have such rights to assert such objections as are set forth in Section 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure; and (vi) all proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential, and all records relating to the Reference shall be permanently sealed when the order thereon becomes final.
15.19.2 Referee. Seller and Buyer shall select a single neutral referee (the “Referee”), who shall be a retired judge or justice of the courts of the State of California, or a federal court judge, in each case, with at least ten years of judicial experience in civil matters. The Referee shall be appointed in accordance with Section 638 of the California Code of Civil Procedure (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts). If within ten (10) days after the request or motion for the Reference, Seller and Buyer cannot agree upon a Referee, either Seller or Buyer may request or move that the Referee be appointed by the Presiding Judge of the Los Angeles County Superior Court or of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The Referee shall determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, legality and enforceability of this Section 15.19.
15.19.3 Other Remedies. No provision of this Section 15.19 shall limit the right of either Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, to (1) exercise such self-help remedies as might otherwise be available under applicable law, (2) initiate judicial or non-judicial foreclosure against any real or personal property collateral, (3) exercise any judicial or power of sale rights, or (4) obtain or oppose provisional or ancillary remedies, including without limitation, injunctive relief, writs of possession, the appointment of a receiver, and/or additional or supplementary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after or during the pendency of the Reference. The exercise of, or opposition to, any such remedy does not waive the right of Seller or Buyer to the Reference pursuant to this Section 15.19.
15.19.4 Costs. Promptly following the selection of the Referee, Seller and Buyer shall each advance equal portions of the estimated fees and costs of the Referee. In the statement of decision issued by the Referee, the Referee shall award costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the prevailing party, if any, and may order the Referee’s fees to be paid or shared by Buyer and/or Seller in such manner as the Referee deems just.
ARTICLE 16. OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS. The notice provisions and any additional terms and conditions, if any, are set forth in the Addendum attached hereto.
ARTICLE 17. ACCEPTANCE. If this Agreement is not executed by Buyer and delivered to Seller on or before 5:00 p.m., C.S.T on the Acceptance Deadline Date, this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder.

This Waiver, Release and Indemnification Agreement (“Indemnification Agreement”) is made, executed and delivered this day of , 2011, by , a (“Indemnitor”), for the benefit of each of the Indemnitees designated hereinafter, with reference to the following facts:

B. Indemnitor has been afforded a full and complete opportunity to inspect, examine and test the Property, and all aspects thereof, prior to closing under the Purchase Agreement and taking title to the Property.
C. Paragraph 9.3 of the Purchase Agreement provides that Indemnitor shall execute and deliver this Indemnification Agreement concurrently with, and as a condition of, the close of the transfer of the Property to Indemnitor by Seller.
In contemplation of the foregoing and in consideration of the mutual promises, agreements and undertakings of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, and the closing of the transactions provided for therein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Indemnitor hereby agrees as follows:
