AGREEMENT
FOR PURCHASE AND SALE
OF REAL PROPERTY
THIS AGREEMENT is entered as of the 11th day of March,
1999, by and between the seller or sellers identified on Schedule
1 attached hereto (herein collectively called "Seller"), and
WXI/SPN Real Estate Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited
partnership (herein called "Buyer").
R E C I T A L S
A. Seller owns one or more certain parcels of land
(collectively, the "Real Property") each located in the City and
State set forth on Schedule 1, attached hereto, as each such Real
Property is more particularly described on Exhibit A, attached
hereto, together with all of the improvements (the
"Improvements") and any fixtures (the "Fixtures") presently
existing and located thereon and therein, and any personalty used
exclusively in connection with the management and operation of
the foregoing, including but not limited to the office equipment,
maintenance equipment and supplies with respect to each Real
Property described on Exhibit B attached hereto (the
"Personalty") (hereinafter said Real Property, Improvements,
Fixtures and Personalty are collectively called the "Property").
B. Buyer has participated in an auction (the
"Auction") to purchase said Property and Buyer, being the
selected bidder, has agreed to purchase such Property on the
terms and conditions set forth herein.
C. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of said
Auction and in connection with being selected as the successful
bidder thereat, Buyer has agreed to execute this Agreement.
D. The parties have agreed to the purchase and sale
of the Property as set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the
mutual covenants and agreement contained herein, and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the Seller and Buyer hereby mutually
agree that this transaction shall be consummated upon the
following terms, conditions and agreements:
1. PURCHASE PRICE. The aggregate purchase price for
the Property is One Hundred Twenty Six Million Three Hundred
Thirty Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars
($126,333,500.00) (the "Purchase Price"). Buyer acknowledges and
agrees that the Purchase Price shall be in all respects net of
any and all prepayment fees, premiums, penalties or similar
charges, expenses, costs and sums (other than outstanding
principal and accrued and unpaid interest) required to be paid to
the holder of any loan (each a "Loan") secured by a mortgage and
related security agreements, liens and financing statements
encumbering a Property, as more particularly referenced on
Exhibit C attached hereto (each, collectively, a "Mortgage"),
pursuant to the related loan documents in order to fully satisfy
such Mortgage (collectively, the "Prepayment Fees"), all as set
forth on a payoff demand submitted by the holder of such Mortgage
and approved by the Seller. The Buyer shall pay the Prepayment
Fees at Closing in accordance with Section 1.2 below, provided,
however, that if the Prepayment Fees for a Property are greater
than the amount specified on Schedule 2 attached hereto, the
Purchase Price for such Property shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the excess of the actual Prepayment Fee for such
Property over the amount specified for such Property on Schedule
2. The portion of the Purchase Price which is allocated to each
Property (each, an "Allocated Purchase Price") is set forth on
Schedule 3, attached hereto. Subject to the prorations and
adjustments hereinafter defined, Seller and the Buyer mutually
agree that the Allocated Purchase Price for each Property shall
be further allocated among Personalty and the remaining Property
in accordance with the allocation set forth on Schedule 3
(collectively, the "Tax Allocations"), which Tax Allocations have
been made in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (as amended) and the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder (the Allocated Purchase Prices and the Tax
Allocations hereinafter called, the "Allocations"). Each of the
Seller and Buyer shall: (i) be bound by the Allocations for
purposes of determining any taxes; (ii) prepare and file any tax
returns on a basis consistent with the Allocations; (iii) take no
position inconsistent with the Allocations on any applicable tax
return, in any proceeding before any taxing authority or
otherwise; and (iv) be bound by the Allocations in all other
public filings and reports, including but not limited to any
transfer tax declarations. In the event that the mutually agreed
upon Allocations are disputed by any taxing authority, the party
receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other
party hereto of the dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall impair Buyer's right to initiate proceedings
after the Closing in which the value of a Property is contested
by Buyer for real estate tax purposes (including ad valorem and
similar state and local taxes imposed based on the assessed value
of real property) in accordance with applicable law.
The Purchase Price shall be payable by Buyer to Seller
as follows:
1.1. XXXXXXX MONEY. In connection with the Auction,
Buyer has delivered to the Title Insurer (as hereinafter
defined), acting as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") the sum of
Six Million and 00/100 Dollars ($6,000,000.00) (such sum,
together with any interest earned thereon, the "Xxxxxxx Money").
From and after the date the Xxxxxxx Money is delivered by Buyer,
the Escrow Agent shall hold the Xxxxxxx Money in accordance with
the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "Escrow
Agreement") in an interest-bearing account for the benefit of
Buyer pending disposition as hereinafter set forth. The amount
of Xxxxxxx Money allocated to each Property is set forth on
Schedule 3 attached hereto (the "Allocated Xxxxxxx Money").
1.2. PREPAYMENT FEES. The Prepayment Fees shall be
deposited with Escrow Agent on or before the Closing Date (as
hereinafter defined), by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to Escrow Agent's account pursuant to Escrow Agent's
instructions. The Prepayment Fees and the applicable portions of
the Purchase Price shall be applied by Escrow Agent at Closing
(as hereinafter defined) to pay off the Loans.
1.3. BALANCE OF PURCHASE PRICE. The balance of the
Purchase Price shall be deposited with Escrow Agent on or before
the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to Escrow Agent's account pursuant to
Escrow Agent's instructions.

cooperated with Buyer in all requests for inspection or testing,
and Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer's reasonable requests
for additional inspections and testing (to be conducted at
Buyer's sole cost and expense) prior to the Closing Date
(hereinafter defined), provided, however, that in no event shall
facts or information which may be discovered by Buyer in so
conducting any inspections or testing, (i) be the basis of any
claim by Buyer against Seller, or any right of Buyer to terminate
this Agreement or to request an adjustment to the Purchase Price
or a cure by Seller of any condition or matter discovered by any
such additional testing or inspection unless such inspections or
tests reveal breaches of representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements of Seller herein, in which case Buyer's remedies

any of Buyer's covenants, agreements and obligations under this
Agreement unless such inspections or tests reveal breaches of
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Seller
herein, in which case Buyer's remedies shall be as provided
herein. Buyer agrees to promptly repair and restore the

testing at the sole cost of Buyer and to Seller's reasonable
satisfaction. Buyer also agrees not to interfere with any
tenants at the Properties during any inspections or testing.

the existence of any hazardous substance or waste.

condition of the Property, whether known or unknown to or
concealed or unconcealed by them or any of them.
2.4. ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES. Except as expressly

3.5. PRORATIONS. The following shall be apportioned on
a per diem basis as of 12:01 a.m. of the Closing Date
("Adjustment Date") and adjusted between the parties on the basis
of the number of days in the month of the Closing with respect to

for items that are not paid on a monthly basis, such items shall
be adjusted on the basis of the number of days applicable to such
period, with Seller receiving a credit for all amounts prepaid by
Seller for any period from and after the Closing Date and Seller
charged with any unpaid charges for the period prior to the
Closing Date:
(a) Real estate and other taxes, assessments and
charges, and other municipal and State charges, license and

the basis of the fiscal period for which assessed or
charged;
(b) Water, electric, gas, steam and other utility
charges for service furnished to the Property;
(c) Fuel, if any, and all taxes thereon, on the basis
of a reading taken as close as possible to the Adjustment
Date;
(d) Base rents and any other rental payments (the
"Rents") paid under the terms of the Leases for the month of
Closing or thereafter;
(e) Any amounts paid or payable under any Service
Contracts being assigned to Buyer;
(f) All costs associated with telephone directory
listings and any other prepaid advertising;
(g) Any other customary adjustments made in connection
with the sale of similar type buildings.
There will be no proration of insurance costs at
Closing. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all other
expenses and liabilities which are attributable to the period
prior to the Closing Date shall be the obligation of Seller and
those which are attributable to the period from and after the
Closing Date shall be the obligation of Buyer. To the extent
there are items of prepaid income, Buyer shall receive a credit
attributable to the period from and after the Closing Date.
3.6. APPORTIONMENT FORMULA. For purposes of the
foregoing apportionments and adjustments, the following
procedures shall govern with respect to each Property:
(a) Any apportionment of income and expense items
shall be apportioned to the Seller based upon the formula
(the "Apportionment Formula") wherein the numerator is the
number of days in such month that the Property was owned by
the Seller and the denominator is the total number of days
in that month for items that are payable on a monthly basis
and, for items that are not paid on a monthly basis, such
items shall be adjusted on the basis of the number of days
applicable to such period, with Seller receiving a credit
for all amounts prepaid by Seller for any period from and
after the Closing Date and Seller charged with any unpaid
charges for the period prior to the Closing Date. To the
extent there are items of prepaid income, Buyer shall
receive a credit attributable to the period from and after
the Closing Date. In addition, if there were "front-end
fees" paid to Seller under a Service Contract, the amount of
such fee shall be amortized over the term of such Service
Contract and the portion applicable to the period from and
after the Closing Date shall be a credit to Buyer.
(b) If the Closing Date shall occur before the real
estate tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of such taxes
shall be made using the real estate taxes for the
immediately preceding year, with a reapportionment in the
event the new tax rate and valuation can be ascertained
during the Adjustment Period (as hereinafter defined).
(c) If there are water meters on the Property, Seller
shall furnish meter readings to a date not more than thirty
days prior to the Adjustment Date; and the unfixed meter
charges for the intervening time to the Adjustment Date
shall be apportioned based upon estimates using such prior
meter readings, unless final readings therefor as of the
Closing shall have been obtained, in which case such final
readings shall be used for the apportionment. As soon as
the expenses for the period shall be known, Seller and Buyer
shall recalculate the adjustment with the result that Seller
shall pay for those expenses attributable to the period
prior to the Closing Date and Buyer shall pay for those
expenses attributable to the period commencing with the
Closing Date.
(d) The apportionment of utility charges shall be made
upon the basis of charges shown on the latest available
bills for such utilities, unless final meter readings
therefor as of the Closing shall have been obtained, in
which case such final readings shall be used for the
apportionment. The charges shown on such available bills
for periods prior to the Adjustment Date shall be paid by
Seller, and for the period from the date of each such last
available utility xxxx to the Adjustment Date an
apportionment shall be made based upon estimates using such
last available xxxx. As soon as the expenses for the period
shall be known, Seller and Buyer shall recalculate the
adjustment with the result that Seller shall pay for those
expenses attributable to the period prior to the Closing
Date and Buyer shall pay for those expenses attributable to
the period commencing with the Closing Date.
(e) All taxes, water and sewer charges and assessments
for public improvements which are liens upon a Property as
of the Closing Date, will be allowed to Buyer as a credit
against the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property,
subject to apportionment as herein provided, and the
existence of any such lien shall not constitute an objection
to title.
(f) If Buyer collects any non-delinquent Rents after
the Closing which are applicable to the month in which the
Closing occurs, the Seller's pro rata share of such Rents
shall be paid to the Seller promptly upon receipt.
(g) If any tenant is delinquent in the payment of
Rents on the Closing Date, Rents received from such tenant
after the Closing Date shall be applied in the following
order of priority: (a) first to current rentals and any
other amounts currently owed to Buyer; and (b) then to
delinquent rentals with respect to the period before
Closing. If Rents or any portion thereof received by Seller
or Buyer after the Closing Date are payable to the other
party by reason of this allocation, the appropriate sum
shall be promptly paid to the other party
(h) All Security Deposits (required to be held by
Seller under the Leases which have not been applied by
Seller in accordance with the terms of the Leases) shall be
transferred and delivered to Buyer on the Closing Date or,
at Seller's option, credited against the Purchase Price.
Buyer and Seller agree that the provisions of Sections
3.5 and 3.6 shall survive the Closing for a period of ninety (90)
days after the Closing Date ("Adjustment Period"), during which
period Buyer and Seller shall agree on a reconciliation of the
prorations described herein. If the parties cannot agree on a
reconciliation within such ninety (90) day period then such
matter shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the
terms of Section 10 below.
3.7. COSTS. The fees of the Escrow Agent, transfer
taxes, recording fees, standard title insurance premiums for
owner's title policies and all other closing and recording costs
shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Each party shall pay
its own professional fees including but not limited to attorneys'
and accountants' fees, and Buyer shall pay for (i) the cost of
any endorsements or affirmative coverage in connection with the
issuance of title policies, and (ii) any further updates or
modifications to the Surveys requested by Buyer or Buyer's
lender.

CLOSE. The obligations of Seller and Buyer to close under this
Agreement as to a particular Property are subject to the
fulfillment, prior to or at Closing, of the following:
that there shall not be in effect any statute, regulation,
order, decree or judgment of any governmental entity having
jurisdiction which renders illegal or enjoins or prevents
the sale of such Property to Buyer.

obligations hereunder with respect to another Property.

Property or destruction thereof due to a casualty (a "Casualty"),
affecting all or any part of a Property, without fault of Buyer,
prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer agree as follows with
respect to such damage or destruction, specifically exclusive of
non-physical losses such as business losses incidental thereto:
(a) If, prior to the Closing Date, a Property is
damaged due to a Casualty and the cost of repairing such
damage, as is reasonably determined by an independent
engineer and appraiser selected by Seller (the "Repair
Cost") is less than One Million and 00/100 Dollars
($1,000,000.00), then Seller and Buyer shall proceed to
close the sale of all of the Property without any abatement
of the Purchase Price, provided however that Seller shall,
at Seller's election, either: (i) repair the Casualty to
such Property prior to Closing at Seller's expense or (ii)
assign to Buyer at Closing, without recourse or warranty of
any nature whatsoever, all of Seller's right, title and
interest in and to any casualty insurance policies covering
such Casualty with respect to the Property, and Seller shall
pay to Buyer the deductible plus any uninsured amounts plus
all payments theretofore made by such insurers as a result
of such loss after deducting therefrom the costs of
collection thereof (an "Assignment of Proceeds").
(b) If, prior to the Closing Date, any Property is
damaged due to a Casualty and the Repair Cost equals or
exceeds One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00), then
Seller shall have the option to: (i) repair the Casualty to
such Property prior to Closing or (ii) terminate this
Agreement in its entirety, upon which termination, provided

herein to the contrary, Seller shall have the right to
adjourn the Closing Date as to such Property for such
reasonable period as shall be necessary to repair any such
Casualty, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days.
(c) If more than one Property is to be acquired
pursuant to this Agreement and the Repair Cost as to a
particular Property equals or exceeds One Million and 00/100
Dollars ($1,000,000.00) such damaged Property may, at
Seller's election, be removed from this Agreement and this
Agreement terminated as to such Property, upon written

termination, provided that Buyer is not in default
hereunder, Buyer's Allocated Xxxxxxx Money as to such
Property shall be returned to Buyer at Closing. If Seller
elects to remove a Property from this Agreement and
terminate this Agreement as to such Property, or to
terminate this Agreement in its entirety due to a Casualty
as described in this Section 4.1, then Buyer shall have the
option, to be exercised by delivering written notice to
Seller of such election within ten days after Buyer's
receipt of written notice of Seller's election, to accept
all of the Property together with an Assignment of Proceeds
with respect to the affected Property.
4.2. CONDEMNATION. If, prior to the Closing Date, all
or any portion of the Property is condemned or taken by eminent
domain, then this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full
force and effect without any abatement of the Purchase Price. In
such event, Seller shall convey the Property to Buyer at the
Closing in its then condition, and Buyer shall be entitled to
receive all net or condemnation awards otherwise payable to
Seller as a result of such loss or damage and, in full
satisfaction of any claims by Buyer against Seller, Seller shall
assign to Buyer at Closing, without recourse or warranty of any
nature whatsoever, all of Seller's right, title and interest in
and to any claims Seller may have to any condemnation awards, as
well as all rights or pending claims of Seller with respect to
such condemnation or taking of the Property, and Seller shall pay
to Buyer all payments theretofore made by such condemning
authorities as a result of such loss after deducting therefrom
the costs of collection thereof.
5. TITLE.
5.1. PRELIMINARY TITLE REPORT, COMMITMENT AND SURVEY.
Seller has provided or otherwise made available to Buyer with
respect to each Property: a copy of a preliminary title report
or a commitment for an ALTA (or the equivalent in the applicable
jurisdiction) policy of Owner's title insurance (each a "Title
Commitment", collectively, the "Title Commitments") issued by
First American Title Insurance Company or a comparable national
title insurance company selected by Seller (the "Title Insurer")
and a copy of the current survey(s) prepared by licensed public
land surveyors according to ALTA standards (each a "Survey",
collectively, the "Surveys"). Buyer has agreed to accept each
Property subject to any and all exceptions to title insurance
coverage contained on the related Title Commitment, including,
but not limited to any exceptions to coverage based upon matters
shown on the related Survey, (collectively, the "Initial
Exceptions"). Upon Closing, each said Title Commitment shall
show fee simple title to the related Property as vested in Seller
subject to (i) all of the Initial Exceptions previously shown in
such Title Commitment at time of execution of this Agreement,
(ii) any New Title Exceptions (defined herein) which are not
identified as Title Defects by Buyer in accordance with the
provisions hereof, and (iii) any Title Defects which are waived
in writing by Buyer (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) collectively,
the "Permitted Exceptions"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Permitted Exceptions shall not include any of the Mortgages,
Voluntary Liens or mechanic's liens or the "standard" exceptions
except that (i) the standard exception for "parties in
possession" shall be a Permitted Exception if modified by the
Title Insurer to provide materially for "rights of tenants, as
tenants only, under unrecorded leases," and (ii) such standard
exceptions shall be Permitted Exceptions if the deletion is not
permitted under applicable law or will not be removed upon
delivery by the Seller of the Title Insurer's owner's affidavit
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H and an ALTA survey
certified to the Title Insurer.
If after the date hereof and prior to the time of
Closing, Buyer receives written updates to said Title Commitments
to include any new exceptions which were not previously shown
therein, including, but not limited to, any new exceptions based
upon Survey updates, Buyer shall deliver to Seller within 10
business days of the delivery of said updated Title Commitments
written notice setting forth its objections to any new matter
encumbering any Property (each a "New Title Exception") which,
taken alone or in the aggregate with other New Title Exceptions
encumbering such Property, impairs such Property's current use or
value (each a "Title Defect"). Seller shall have the option to:
(i) cure any Title Defect prior to Closing or (ii) terminate this
Agreement in its entirety, upon which termination, provided that
Buyer is not in default hereunder, Buyer's Xxxxxxx Money shall be
returned to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, Seller shall have the right to postpone the Closing
Date for such reasonable period as shall be necessary to cure any
Title Defect not to exceed sixty (60) days. If more than one
Property is to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement and Seller
elects not to cure a Title Defect with respect to a Property,
such Property may be removed from this Agreement and this
Agreement terminated as to such Property. In the event of such a
termination, provided that Buyer is not in default hereunder,
Buyer's Allocated Xxxxxxx Money as to such Property shall be
returned to Buyer at Closing. If Seller elects to terminate this
Agreement in its entirety or with respect to a particular
Property due to a Title Defect as described in this paragraph,
then Buyer shall have the option to waive such Title Defect and
accept the Property subject to the applicable Title Defect
provided however that Buyer exercise such option in writing
within ten (10) business days of Seller's notice of said
election.
5.2. PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to accept each
Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in no event or circumstances
shall a Title Defect (except for liens and encumbrances created,
granted or assumed pursuant to one or more instruments executed
by Seller ("Voluntary Liens")) and mechanic's liens) include any
title exception or matter encumbering the Property the cost of
which to cure or reduction in value is, when aggregated with any
other Title Defect for such Property, less than or equal to Fifty
Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00), provided however that
should the cost to cure the New Title Exceptions (except for
Voluntary Liens and mechanic's liens) or reduction in value with
respect to a particular Property, in the aggregate ("Aggregate
Curative Cost"), be greater than Fifty Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($50,000.00) then: Buyer may send a written notice
setting forth its objections to such exceptions or matters
pursuant to the same notice requirements provided in Section 5.1
above and if Seller elects to cure such New Title Exceptions
pursuant to Section 5.1 (i) above, Seller shall be obligated to
cure only such New Title Exceptions (except for Voluntary Liens
and mechanic's liens) such that the resulting Aggregate Curative
Cost for the uncured New Title Exceptions objected to by Buyer
with respect to a particular Property will be an amount less than
or equal to Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00). In
lieu of curing any New Title Exception, which Seller may elect to
eliminate under this Agreement, Seller may (subject to Buyer's
reasonable approval other than with respect to mechanics liens)
deposit with the Title Insurer such amount of money as may be
determined by the Title Insurer as being sufficient to induce the
Title Insurer, without the payment of any additional premium by
Buyer, to omit such New Title Exception from Buyer's title
insurance policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall
not be obligated, under any circumstances, to cure any exception
or matter encumbering the Property other than Voluntary Liens or
mechanics liens.
5.3. RESOLUTION OF TITLE ISSUES. Buyer and Seller
shall make reasonable efforts to agree as to the existence of any
Title Defect. If the Seller and Buyer do not agree on the
foregoing within fifteen (15) days after Seller's receipt of
Buyer's notice described in Section 5.1 above, then the Parties
shall submit the matter to binding arbitration in accordance with
the terms of Section 10 below.
5.4. TITLE INSURANCE POLICY. Seller's obligations to
deliver title to the Property shall be satisfied by the issuance
of a extended coverage owner's title insurance policy with
respect to each Property issued by the Title Insurer, insuring
Buyer in the amount of the Allocated Purchase Price for such
Property and showing the Property to be subject to the Permitted
Exceptions.
6. BROKER. Each of the parties warrants to the other
that no broker, salesman or agent has been engaged or used in
connection with this transaction. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, each party agrees to indemnify the other party
against any and all loss, claims, liability, and expense,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of any claim
for commission or fee incurred or allegedly incurred by the
indemnifying party.
The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the
Closing.
7. SELLER'S DISCLAIMERS; REPRESENTATIONS,
COVENANTS AND WARRANTIES.
7.1. PROPERTY SOLD "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY. Except as
may be otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the
Closing Documents, Buyer agrees and acknowledges that Buyer is
purchasing the Property "AS IS", in its existing condition and
subject to its present defects (including, but not limited to,
the matters raised in the letter dated March 3, 1999 from The Las
Colinas Association with respect to the Property known as
MacArthur Park, Irving, Texas (the "MacArthur Estoppel")), in
reliance on Buyer's own investigation and that no other
representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever, written or
oral, express or implied, have been made by Seller or the
Protected Group, including without limitation representations
relating to zoning, site and physical conditions, toxic and
hazardous materials or waste, soils content, or any matter
affecting the ability of the Buyer to use the Property or the
suitability of the Property to Buyer's purposes. Buyer further
acknowledges and agrees that as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall
have investigated, inspected, and made itself aware of all zoning
regulations, other governmental requirements, site and physical
conditions, the existence or nonexistence of toxic or hazardous
materials or waste, soil conditions, and other matters affecting
the use and condition of the Property.
Additionally and specifically, except as may be
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Closing
Documents, Seller makes no representation whatsoever, express or
implied: (a) that the Property is in good or any other
condition; (b) that the buildings and other Improvements, if any,
were built or are currently in compliance with plans and/or
specifications; (c) that the buildings and other Improvements, if
any, were built in accordance with either good or acceptable
construction and/or engineering practices; (d) that the buildings
and other Improvements, if any, were built or are currently in
compliance with applicable zoning or building code requirements
including, but not limited to applicable safety codes or laws and
the Americans with Disabilities Act or any State or local law
concerning disabled persons; (e) that the Property is free of
major or minor, latent or patent defects; (f) that the Property
has no hazards; (g) that the Property complies with Federal,
State or local laws or any other standards regarding toxic,
hazardous or unhealthful materials; (h) that the Property
complies with Federal, State and local environmental laws; (i) as
to the existence of soil instability, past soil repairs, soil
additions or conditions of soil fill, or susceptibility to
landslides; and (j) as to any other matter affecting the
stability or integrity of the land or any buildings or
improvements situated on or part of the Property.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer
agrees to purchase the Property subject to any and all notices of
violations of law or municipal ordinances, orders or requirements
whatsoever noted in or issued by any federal, state, municipal or
other governmental department, agency or bureau having
jurisdiction over the Property (collectively, "Violations"), or
any lien, fine or penalty imposed in connection with any of the
foregoing, or any condition or state of repair imposed in
connection with any of the foregoing, or any condition or state
of repair or disrepair or other matter or thing, whether or not
noted, which, if noted, would result in a Violation being placed
on the Property. Seller shall have no duty to remove or comply
with or repair any such Violations, liens or other conditions and
Buyer shall accept the Property subject to all such Violations
and liens, the existence of any conditions at the Property which
would give rise to such Violations or liens, if any, and any
governmental claims arising from the existence of such Violations
and lien, in each case without any abatement of or credit against
the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection
with any Violations that are issued after the date of this
Agreement, but on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) any liens,
fines and/or penalties imposed on the Property after the date of
this Agreement, but on or prior to the Closing Date, by reason of
the existence of such Violations and (ii) any cure costs
associated with such Violations with respect to a particular
Property shall be addressed in the same fashion in which New
Title Exceptions are addressed hereunder, and Seller's and
Buyer's respective rights and obligations with respect thereto
shall be governed by the provisions of Sections 5.1 and 5.2
hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, the provisions of this Section 7.1 requiring Buyer to
acquire title to the Property subject to a Violation arising from
the non-payment of an item which is to be apportioned hereunder
shall not abrogate the provisions of Sections 3.5 and 3.6
requiring the apportionment thereof or Seller's liability for a
breach of Section 7.3 or Section 11 of this Agreement.
7.2. SELLER UNDER NO DUTY TO DISCLOSE CONDITION.
Except as provided in Section 7.3 or Section 11, Buyer
acknowledges and agrees that Seller and the Protected Group shall
have no duty to disclose to Buyer any information known to them,
or any of them, concerning the condition of the Property, defects
in the Property, failure of the Property to comply with plans,
specifications, building codes, life safety codes, safety laws,
hazardous materials, environmental laws or any other laws or
codes or construction standards affecting the Property. If any
duty to disclose exists, Buyer expressly waives that duty as to
all of the above-referenced persons and entities. Without
limiting the foregoing if any information is disclosed to Buyer,
except as provided in this Agreement, Seller makes no
representation or warranties whatsoever with respect to the
accuracy or completeness of any information provided to Buyer.
Buyer has conducted its own independent investigation.

AGREED UPON DAMAGES AS ITS SOLE REMEDY, WHEREUPON THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE NULL AND VOID, AND NEITHER SELLER NOR BUYER NOR ANY OF
THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER RIGHTS OR
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER. SUCH AMOUNT IS PRESUMED TO BE THE AMOUNT
OF DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY A BREACH, AS IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR
EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. IN
PLACING THEIR INITIALS AT THE PLACES PROVIDED, EACH PARTY
SPECIFICALLY CONFIRMS THE ACCURACY OF THE STATEMENTS MADE ABOVE
AND THE FACT THAT EACH PARTY WAS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL WHO
EXPLAINED THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS DAMAGES PROVISION AT THE TIME
THIS AGREEMENT WAS MADE.
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF SELLER'S INITIALS
BUYER'S OR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF BUYER'S INITIALS
9.2. (a) IF PRIOR TO CLOSING, SELLER DEFAULTS IN ANY OF
THE COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS OR OBLIGATIONS TO BE PERFORMED BY
SELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AT OR PRIOR TO CLOSING AND SUCH
DEFAULT IS NOT CURED BY THE EARLIER OF (A) THE CLOSING DATE OR
(B) THE DATE WHICH IS TEN (10) DAYS AFTER NOTICE OF SUCH DEFAULT
FROM BUYER TO SELLER, THEN, AND IN SUCH EVENT BUYER, AS ITS SOLE
REMEDY THEREFOR, MAY EITHER (1) TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT BY
WRITTEN NOTICE TO SELLER, WHEREUPON SELLER SHALL REFUND TO BUYER
THE XXXXXXX MONEY DEPOSIT REQUIRED HEREUNDER, PLUS THE ACTUAL AND
REASONABLE OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY BUYER ON
OR AFTER THE FINAL BID DATE (AS DEFINED HEREIN), UP TO AN
AGGREGATE MAXIMUM OF TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS
($200,000.00) ("BUYER'S REIMBURSABLE EXPENSES"), AS LIQUIDATED
AND AGREED UPON DAMAGES, WHEREUPON THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL
AND VOID, AND NEITHER SELLER NOR BUYER NOR ANY OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER RIGHTS OR
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AT LAW OF IN EQUITY FOR DAMAGES OR
OTHERWISE, OR (2) SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF SELLER'S
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, WITHOUT ABATEMENT, CREDIT AGAINST OR

(b) IF ON OR PRIOR TO THE CLOSING DATE, (I) BUYER
SHALL BECOME AWARE OF AN INACCURACY IN ANY REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY MADE BY SELLER PURSUANT TO SECTION 7.3 HEREOF (AS MADE

BUYER OR (II) BUYER SHALL BECOME AWARE OF AN INACCURACY IN ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY MADE BY SELLER PURSUANT TO SELLER'S
REPRESENTATION CERTIFICATE (AS MADE AS OF THE CLOSING DATE) WHICH
HAS A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON BUYER, THEN, AND IN ANY OF SUCH
EVENTS, BUYER MAY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT BY WRITTEN NOTICE TO

NOTICE AND TO ADJOURN THE CLOSING FOR SUCH REASONABLE PERIOD AS
SHALL BE NECESSARY TO CURE SUCH INACCURACY TO BUYER'S REASONABLE
SATISFACTION, NOT TO EXCEED SIXTY (60) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF
BUYER'S TERMINATION NOTICE, UPON WHICH CURE BUYER'S TERMINATION
NOTICE SHALL BE DEEMED REVOKED. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY
OF THIS SECTION, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY OF THE
EVENTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION 9.2(b) GIVE
RISE TO ANY OBLIGATION OF SELLER TO CURE ANY INACCURACY IN ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE MAKE SELLER LIABLE FOR
DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT THEREOF. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION 9.2,
THE PHRASE "MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON BUYER" SHALL MEAN ONE OR
MORE INACCURACIES IN ANY OF THE REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES

INACCURACIES OR NEW TITLE EXCEPTIONS, SELLER SHALL BE OBLIGATED
TO CURE ONLY SUCH INACCURACIES AND NEW TITLE EXCEPTIONS SUCH THAT
THE RESULTING AGGREGATE LIABILITIES, LOSS, CURATIVE COST OR
EXPENSE WILL BE AN AMOUNT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO FIFTY THOUSAND
AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($50,000.00). IF ANY SUCH INACCURACY IN ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY UNDER SECTION 7.3 OR PURSUANT TO
SELLER'S REPRESENTATION CERTIFICATE SHALL NOT HAVE A MATERIAL
ADVERSE EFFECT ON BUYER, AS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS
SECTION, THEN BUYER SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AT LAW OR EQUITY, AS A RESULT OF SUCH
INACCURACY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE
THIS AGREEMENT IF BUYER SHALL BECOME AWARE OF SUCH INACCURACY ON
OR BEFORE THE CLOSING.
(c) ANY DAMAGE AMOUNT TO BE PAID PURSUANT TO THIS
SECTION 9.2 IS PRESUMED TO BE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY
A BREACH, AS IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO
FIX THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING
CONTAINED HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER (BEYOND ITS INTEREST
IN THE PROPERTY) OR THE PROTECTED GROUP HAVE ANY PERSONAL
LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WHATSOEVER AND BUYER SHALL UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES INITIATE ANY ACTION IN COURT OR BY ARBITRATION
AGAINST THE PROTECTED GROUP UNLESS IT IS PROCEDURALLY REQUIRED BY
LAW TO NAME A MEMBER OF THE PROTECTED GROUP IN ORDER TO INITIATE
SUCH PROCEEDING, WHICH NAMING SHALL NOT ALTER THE ABOVE WAIVERS
AND LIMITATIONS.
(d) IF SELLER DISCLOSES TO BUYER IN WRITING OR BUYER
DISCLOSES TO SELLER IN WRITING PRIOR TO CLOSING, (I) A DEFAULT IN
ANY OF THE COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS OR OBLIGATIONS TO BE PERFORMED
BY SELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR (II) A MATERIAL INACCURACY
IN ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF SELLER MADE IN THIS
AGREEMENT OR PURSUANT TO SELLER'S REPRESENTATION CERTIFICATE, AND
BUYER ELECTS TO PROCEED TO CLOSING, THEN UPON THE CONSUMMATION OF
THE CLOSING, BUYER SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ANY SUCH
DEFAULT AND/OR MATERIAL INACCURACY AND SHALL HAVE NO CLAIM
AGAINST SELLER ON ACCOUNT THEREOF. IN PLACING THEIR INITIALS AT
THE PLACES PROVIDED, EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY CONFIRMS THE
ACCURACY OF THE STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS SECTION 9.2 AND THE FACT
THAT EACH PARTY WAS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL WHO EXPLAINED THE
CONSEQUENCES OF THESE DAMAGES PROVISIONS AT THE TIME THIS
AGREEMENT WAS MADE
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF SELLER'S INITIALS
BUYER'S OR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF BUYER'S INITIALS
9.3. TERMINATION. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein, this Agreement may be terminated as follows:
(a) By Seller, if any reductions or adjustments to the
Purchase Price result in the Purchase Price being reduced to
an amount which is less than the purchase price that would
be produced by the final bid submitted by the Xxxxxx
Defendants, as such term is defined in the Stipulation of
Settlement with Xxxxxx Defendants pertaining to the
Litigation;
(b) By Seller or Buyer in accordance with any rights
of termination expressly conferred under the terms of this
Agreement or if any of the applicable conditions precedent
have not been satisfied or waived by the party who is the
beneficiary of such conditions precedent; and
(c) By Seller or Buyer as to all of the Properties, if
a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator issues a
binding and final order permanently preventing the sale of
any Property to Buyer.
In the event this Agreement is terminated in its
entirety or as to a particular Property pursuant to any of the
foregoing provisions, this Agreement shall thereupon become null
and void in its entirety or as to such Property, as applicable,
and neither Seller nor Buyer nor any of their respective
representatives shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder, provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement
and the Indemnification Agreement (each as defined herein) shall
remain in full force and effect. If this Agreement is terminated
as to a particular Property pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
Allocated Purchase Price for such Property.
10. ARBITRATION.
10.1. ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES.
The parties agree that any controversy or claim arising
out of or related to this Agreement, whether claimed under the
law of tort or the law of contract or any other laws, shall be
submitted to the American Arbitration Association (the
"Association") (or any successor organization) for arbitration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall have the right
to file an action for injunctive relief with a court of competent
jurisdiction to preserve the status quo pending the final
resolution of such arbitration. All arbitration shall be finally
determined in New York City and shall be governed in accordance
with the Rules for Commercial Arbitration of the Association (or
any successor thereto) and the judgment or the award rendered may
be entered in any court having jurisdiction provided that the
judgment or award is based upon the proper interpretation and
application of New York law. Each party shall pay 50% of the
fees and expenses of the Association. If the matter in dispute
arises prior to the Closing Date, the Closing Date shall be
adjourned pending resolution of the matter in dispute. Upon
resolution of such dispute the parties shall take whatever action
is required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement or the final
determination of an arbitrator.
10.2. LIMITATION ON DISCOVERY. In a mutual effort
to expedite the arbitration and limit the cost of dispute
resolutions, the parties agree that there shall be limited
discovery as directed by the arbitrator, and if a party intends
to call its own expert witness or adduce expert testimony, then
that party must notify the other party of the name, address and
all educational background of that witness and provide a complete
(complete means no subsequent data, references or opinions may be
added, referred to or testified to) report describing all of such
expert's investigations, findings and conclusions not later than
sixty (60) days before arbitration. Each party shall, on written
demand, make its expert available for deposition not later than
twenty (20) days before the arbitration hearing. Failure to make
the expert available for deposition shall permanently preclude
the arbitrator(s) from considering the expert's testimony. The
deposition may not be admitted or used as a substitute for the
live testimony of the expert at the hearing under any
circumstances. The arbitrator(s) shall not have the power to
subpoena any documents, records, reports or writings of either
party.
11. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. During the period from
January 15, 1999 (the "Final Bid Date") to the Closing Date,
except (i) as Buyer shall otherwise agree, (ii) as necessary in
connection with the transactions contemplated herein, or (iii) as
otherwise permitted under Article 4 hereof, Seller shall operate
the Property in the ordinary and usual course, consistent with
past practice, provided, however, that Seller shall not be
obligated to take any corrective action (or to consent to any
such action by Buyer) with respect to the matters set forth on
the MacArthur Estoppel.
(a) Between Final Bid Date and the Closing Date,
Seller agrees that, without Buyer's written consent in each case,
it will not voluntarily grant, create, assume or permit to be
created any mortgage, lien, encumbrance, easement, covenant,
condition, right-of-way or restriction upon the Property or
voluntarily take or permit any action adversely affecting the
title to the Property as it exists on the date hereof.
(b) Between the date hereof and the Closing Date,
Seller agrees that, without Buyer's prior written consent, it
will not enter into any new leases except in accordance with the
leasing guidelines and credit approval guidelines attached hereto
as Schedule 10.
(c) Between the Final Bid Date and the Closing Date,
the Seller will not remove any material Personalty from the
Property except in the ordinary course of business and provided
such Personalty is replaced with items of the same or better
quality.
(d) Seller will not return any security deposits held
or required to be held by Seller which have been deposited by
tenants with respect to Leases terminating between the date
hereof and the Closing Date unless and until Seller has verified
that all equipment, fixtures and appliances located in the
subject apartment are in working order and the apartment is
otherwise in the condition required for the return of such
deposits under such Leases.
The Provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the
Closing for a period of ninety (90) days.
12. REASONABLE EFFORTS; PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. Each
party hereto will use all reasonable efforts to perform all acts
required to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as
promptly as practicable. Such acts shall include, without
limitation, the provision of any information to and submission of
any filing with any governmental entity having jurisdiction. The
foregoing notwithstanding, except as may be required to comply
with the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations or of
the court with respect to the Litigation and the rules and
regulations of each stock exchange upon which the securities of
one of the parties is listed (including, but not limited to, the
filing of Form 8-K by Seller) and except communications by Seller
to holders of limited partnership interests in Seller (copies of
which will be made available to employees of the general partners
of Seller or their affiliates who, in the case of communications
which include the Purchase Price, shall be informed of Seller's
obligations under this Section 12), no press release or similar
public announcement or communication shall, if prior to the
Closing, be made or caused to be made concerning the execution or
performance of this Agreement, unless the parties shall have
consulted in advance with respect thereto. Subject to the
provisions of Section 13.8(b), Seller's obligations under the
previous sentence shall survive the Closing. In the event Buyer
elected to inspect the Property prior to the Auction, Buyer has
agreed to indemnify and hold Seller harmless with respect matters
relating to such inspections in accordance with a certain
Inspection Indemnification Agreement dated January 7, 1999,
executed by affiliates of Buyer (the "Indemnification
Agreement"). Buyer shall keep such information confidential,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality
Agreement dated October 28, 1998, by affiliates of Buyer (the
"Confidentiality Agreement").
13. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
13.1. TIME. Time shall be of the essence of this
Agreement. If any expiration or deadline date falls on a
Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, it shall be extended to the
next following business day.
13.2. EFFECT OF WAIVER OF PROVISION OR REMEDY. No
waiver by a party of any provision of this Agreement shall be
considered a waiver of any other provision or any subsequent
breach of the same or any other provision, including the time for
performance of any such provision. The exercise by a party of
any remedy provided in this Agreement or at law shall not prevent
the exercise by that party of any other remedy provided in this
Agreement or at law.
13.3. INTEGRATED ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement
and the attached exhibits, along with the Confidentiality
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement
constitute the entire agreement between the parties relating to
the sale of the Property. Any prior agreements, promises,
negotiations, or representations not expressly set forth in this
Agreement in writing are of no force and effect and may not be
relied upon for any purpose whatsoever by any party to this
Agreement. Any amendment to this Agreement shall be of no force
and effect unless it is in writing and signed by Buyer and
Seller. Any statements or representations made by any person,
whether or not a party to the Agreement, whether or not an
employee or other representative of Seller or Buyer, shall not be
relied upon by either Seller or Buyer and shall not be of any
force and effect for any purpose whatsoever, except for the
statements and representations in this Agreement.
13.4. NO REPRESENTATION REGARDING LEGAL EFFECT OF
DOCUMENT. No representation, warranty, or recommendation is made
by Seller or the Protected Group, or their brokers, respective
agents, employees, or attorneys regarding the legal sufficiency,
legal effect, or tax consequences of this Agreement or the
transaction, and each signatory has had the opportunity to submit
this Agreement to its qualified legal and/or financial advisor
before signing it.
13.5. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement and all
amendments and supplements to it may be executed in any number of
counterparts, at different places and times, all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument, which
shall be deemed dated as of the day and year first above written.
Buyer and Seller shall each receive one duplicate original.
13.6. BINDING ON SUCCESSORS. This Agreement inures
to the benefit of, and is binding on, the parties and, without
affecting the limitations of paragraph 9, their respective heirs,
personal representatives, successors, and assigns.
13.7. INTERPRETATION. Titles and headings of
sections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and shall not affect the construction of any provision of this
Agreement. All recitals set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement are, by this reference, fully incorporated into this
Agreement. All exhibits referred to in this Agreement are deemed
fully incorporated herein. As used herein: (a) the singular
shall include the plural (and vice versa) and the masculine or
neuter gender shall include the feminine gender (and vice versa)
as the context may require; (b) locative adverbs such as
"herein", "hereto", and "hereunder" shall refer to this Agreement
in its entirety and not to any specific section or paragraph; and
(c) the terms "include", "including", and similar terms shall be
construed as though followed immediately by the phrase "but not
limited to". All parties have jointly participated in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, upon advice of their
own independent counsel or have had an opportunity to do so, and
this Agreement shall be construed fairly and equally as to all
parties as if drafted jointly by them.
13.8. SURVIVAL. (a) Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement,
(i.e., no representation warranty, covenant, certification,
indemnification, agreement or other obligation set forth in any
provision of this Agreement, in Seller's Representation
Certificate or in Seller's certification of any rent rolls) shall
survive the Closing (and, accordingly, no claim arising out of
the same may be commenced after the Closing), and the delivery
and acceptance of the conveyance deed shall be deemed to be full
performance and discharge of each such representation,
certification, indemnification, warranty, covenant, agreement or
other obligation.
(b) WITH RESPECT TO (I) AN INACCURACY IN ANY REPRESENTATION
OR WARRANTY OF SELLER MADE PURSUANT TO SECTION 7.3 HEREOF (AS
MADE AS OF THE DATE HEREOF) OR AN INACCURACY IN ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF SELLER MADE PURSUANT TO SELLER'S
REPRESENTATION CERTIFICATE (AS MADE AS OF THE CLOSING DATE)
WHICH, IN ANY CASE, HAS A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON BUYER,
EXPRESSLY SURVIVES THE CLOSING PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND IS
NOT WAIVED HEREUNDER OR (II) A DEFAULT IN ANY OF THE COVENANTS,
AGREEMENTS OR OBLIGATIONS TO BE PERFORMED BY SELLER UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 6 AND 12) WHICH
EXPRESSLY SURVIVES THE CLOSING AND IS NOT WAIVED HEREUNDER, BUYER
SHALL HAVE, AS ITS SOLE REMEDY THEREFOR, A CLAIM AGAINST SELLER
TO BE SATISFIED SOLELY FROM THE POST-CLOSING ESCROW ON ACCOUNT
THEREOF; PROVIDED THAT (1) ANY SUCH CLAIM NOT BROUGHT WITHIN
NINETY (90) DAYS AFTER THE CLOSING DATE SHALL BE DEEMED WAIVED,
(2) BUYER HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO COLLECT OR SEEK TO COLLECT
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, (3) IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER'S AGGREGATE
LIABILITY FOR ANY SUCH CLAIM EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FUNDS IN THE
POST-CLOSING ESCROW, AND BUYER HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO COLLECT
OR SEEK ANY AMOUNTS IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT OF THE POST-CLOSING
ESCROW, (4) IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FIRST
FIFTY THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($50,000.00) PER PROPERTY OF
LIABILITIES, LOSS, CURATIVE COST OR EXPENSE WITH RESPECT TO ANY
INACCURACIES (IN THE AGGREGATE) DESCRIBED IN CLAUSE (I) ABOVE AND
(5) IN THE EVENT THAT BUYER'S CLAIM IS DETERMINED TO EXCEED THE
AMOUNT OF THE POST-CLOSING ESCROW, BUYER AGREES TO ACCEPT THE
AMOUNT OF THE POST-CLOSING ESCROW AS LIQUIDATED AND AGREED UPON
DAMAGES, WHEREUPON NEITHER SELLER NOR ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES
SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER LIABILITIES OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AT
LAW OF IN EQUITY FOR DAMAGES OR OTHERWISE OTHER THAN SURVIVING
OBLIGATIONS, IF ANY, UNDER SECTIONS 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 6 AND 12
HEREOF. ANY DAMAGE AMOUNT TO BE PAID PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (5)
ABOVE IS PRESUMED TO BE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY A
BREACH, AS IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX
THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. BUYER HEREBY WAIVES ALL REMEDIES
WITH RESPECT TO ANY DEFAULT BY SELLER OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER
SECTION 12 HEREOF AND THE CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT WHICH
EXPRESSLY SURVIVE THE CLOSING AND ARE NOT WAIVED HEREUNDER
(INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLAIMS FOR MONETARY DAMAGES),
OTHER THAN PURSUIT OF A RESTRAINING ORDER OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF TO
PREVENT SELLER'S VIOLATION OF SUCH PROVISION TO THE EXTENT
AVAILABLE TO BUYER UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. NOTWITHSTANDING
ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER (BEYOND ITS
INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY) OR THE PROTECTED GROUP HAVE ANY
PERSONAL LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WHATSOEVER AND BUYER
SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES INITIATE ANY ACTION IN COURT OR BY
ARBITRATION AGAINST THE PROTECTED GROUP UNLESS IT IS
PROCEDURALLY REQUIRED BY LAW TO NAME A MEMBER OF THE PROTECTED
GROUP IN ORDER TO INITIATE SUCH PROCEEDING, WHICH NAMING SHALL
NOT ALTER THE ABOVE WAIVERS AND LIMITATIONS. IN PLACING THEIR
INITIALS AT THE PLACES PROVIDED, EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY CONFIRMS
THE ACCURACY OF THE STATEMENTS MADE ABOVE AND THE FACT THAT EACH
PARTY WAS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL WHO EXPLAINED THE CONSEQUENCES
OF THIS DAMAGES PROVISION AT THE TIME THIS AGREEMENT WAS MADE.
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF SELLER'S INITIALS
BUYER'S OR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF BUYER'S INITIALS
(c) For purposes of this Section 13.8, the phrase "material
adverse effect on Buyer" shall mean one or more inaccuracies in
any of the representations or warranties made by Seller pursuant
to Section 7.3 hereof or pursuant to Seller's Representation
Certificate where Buyer can reasonably demonstrate that the
liabilities, loss, curative cost or expense with respect to a
particular Property resulting from such inaccuracies are more
than Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00). If any such
inaccuracies in any representation or warranty under Section 7.3
or pursuant to Seller's Representation Certificate shall not have
a material adverse effect on Buyer, as determined in accordance
with this Section 13.8 then Buyer shall not be entitled to any
right or remedy under this Agreement, at law or equity, as a
result of such inaccuracies.
(d) The provisions of this Section 13.8 shall survive
Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

WITH RESPECT TO CAMERON CREEK (TEXAS) AND DEL RIO PROPERTIES
1. Purchase Price Allocation. The Allocated Purchase

retained by Seller as liquidated damages, shall be further
allocated after the Closing between the fee simple estate and
ground leasehold tenancy in accordance with the following
formula:
a. The Seller of the fee simple interest (the
"Fee Seller") will receive a portion of the
net proceeds equal to its original purchase
price for the land ($3,500,000 for the
Cameron Creek (Texas) Property and $2,000,000
for Del Rio);
b. The Seller of the tenant's interest (the
"Leasehold Seller") under the ground lease
pertaining to the Property identified on
Exhibit F attached hereto (the "Ground

proceeds up to a base amount equal to the
appraised value of the land, buildings and
improvements at the time of the Fee Seller's
original public offering ($18,000,000 for
Cameron Creek (Texas) and $10,100,000 for Del
Rio); and
2. Any remaining proceeds will be allocated 42.5% to
the Fee Seller and 57.5% to the Leasehold Seller.
3. Tax Allocation. For the purpose of the Tax
Allocation, all Personalty shall be considered to be the property
of the Leasehold Seller.
4. Representations and Warranties. Under Section
