limited circumstances set forth in this Section 1, Buyer has waived and shall
have no further right to terminate the Agreements under Section 6.2 thereof. In
accordance with the foregoing, Buyer and Seller hereby agree that Buyer may
terminate the Agreements on or before 5:00 p.m. EST on the dates set forth below
and only for the reasons hereinafter provided.
(a) October 5, 2001 (the "Financing Deadline") provided Buyer has not
secured a mortgage loan commitment to finance the acquisition of the Properties;
(b) October 5, 2001 (the "Foundation Violation Deadline") provided Seller
has not cured or provided Buyer reasonable assurances that Seller will cure the
outstanding municipal ordinance violation relative to the building foundation at
the Pavillion Property (the parties acknowledging that the Seller has no
obligation to cure this violation);

Buyer and such exceptions are unacceptable to Buyer on such date;

encroachments shown on the Prior Surveys are not removed by the Title Insurer as
exceptions to Buyer's Title Policy and (ii) the Title Insurer is unable or
unwilling to affirmatively insure over such encroachments at standard rates to
the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer;
(e) October 12, 2001 (the "Parking Matters Deadline") provided that (i) the
aggregate number of parking spaces at the Properties is in violation of the
zoning ordinance of the City of Garland, Texas and there is insufficient space
at the Properties to cure such violation, and (ii) the Title Insurer is unable
or unwilling to issue a zoning endorsement at standard rates to Buyer's Title
Policy without exception for such violation or to affirmatively insure over such
violation to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer; and
(f) October 22, 2001 (the "Survey Matters Deadline") provided that (i) the
New Surveys contain New Survey Matters which materially deviate from the Prior
Survey Matters shown on the Prior Surveys, and (ii) the Title Insurer is unable
or unwilling to affirmatively insure over such New Survey Matters to the
reasonable satisfaction of Buyer.
If Buyer elects not to terminate the Agreements for the foregoing reasons prior
to (i) the Financing Deadline, (ii) the Foundation Violation Deadline, (iii) the
Title Matters Deadline, (iv) the Prior Survey Matters Deadline, (v) the Parking
Matters Deadline, or (v) the Survey Matters Deadline, as the case may be, the
contingency provided for in Section 6.2 of the Agreements, as amended by this
Master Amendment, shall no longer be applicable, Buyer shall be deemed to have
waived any right to terminate hereunder and the Agreements shall continue in
full force and effect. In the event Buyer timely elects to terminate the
Agreements as permitted above, Buyer shall deliver to Seller with Buyer's notice
of termination true, accurate and complete copies of all studies, surveys,
plans, investigations and reports obtained by or prepared by Buyer in connection
with Buyer's inspection of the Property at no cost to Seller.
2. Extension of Closing Date. The definition of the term "Original Closing
Date" set forth in Section 3 of the Agreements is hereby amended by deleting
"October 27, 2001" from said definition and inserting in its place "November 12,
2001".
3. Counterparts, Etc. This Master Amendment shall not be effective unless
and until execution and delivery thereof by both Seller and Buyer. This Master
Amendment may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which,
when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Executed copies of this
Master Amendment may be delivered by facsimile.
