tenant's security deposit; the exact dollar amount of the tenant's
security deposit; and appropriate instructions in relation to the
payment of future rentals and the giving of notice; all in the manner
required by '92.105(b) of the Texas Property Code.
8.3 Costs of Closing. Except as otherwise herein provided, the escrow
fees of the Title Company, any and all recording costs, documentary stamp taxes,
deed taxes, transfer taxes or other similar taxes, fees or assessments, and any
and all premiums and other costs relating to the Title Policy, and all costs of
obtaining the Survey, shall all be paid equally by Seller and Purchaser. Any
costs, including, without limitation, recording costs, loan fees and attorneys'
fees, relating to (a) any financing obtained by the Purchaser for the purchase
of the Property, and/or (b) any documentary stamp taxes, deed taxes, transfer
taxes, intangible taxes, mortgage taxes or other similar taxes, fees or
assessments incurred in connection with any such financing shall be borne and
paid exclusively by Purchaser. All other expenses incurred by Seller and

attorneys' fees and costs and expenses incurred in connection with negotiating,
preparing and closing the transaction contemplated by this Contract, shall be
borne and paid exclusively by the party incurring same, unless otherwise
expressly provided in this Contract.
8.4 Perorations. All normal and customarily proratable items, including,
without limitation, rents, operating expenses and other expenses and fees
(excluding leasing commissions), and payments relating to any agreements
affecting the Property which survive the Closing, shall be prorated as of the
Closing Date, Seller being charged and credited for all of same attributable to
the period up to the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts paid by Seller
attributable to the period on or after the Closing Date) and Purchaser being
responsible for, and credited or charged, as the case may be, for all of same
attributable to the period on and after the Closing Date. All unapplied
Deposits under Tenant Leases in the possession of Seller, if any, shall be
transferred by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing. Any real estate ad valorem
or similar taxes for the Property, or any installment of assessments payable in
installments which installment is payable in the year of Closing, shall be
prorated to the date of Closing, based upon actual days involved. In connection
with the proration of real property taxes or installments of assessments, such
proration shall be based upon the assessed valuation and tax rate figures for
the year in which the Closing occurs to the extent the same are available;
provided, that in the event that actual figures (whether for the assessed value
of the Property or for the tax rate) for the year of Closing are not available
at the Closing Date, the proration shall be made using figures from the
preceding year for the figures which are unavailable for the year of Closing.
The proration shall be final and unadjustable except as provided in the
following paragraph. The provisions of this Section 8.4 shall survive the
Closing.
If any of the items subject to proration under the foregoing provisions of
this Section 8.4 cannot be prorated at the Closing because of the unavailability
of the information necessary to compute such proration, or if any material
errors or omissions in computing prorations at the Closing are discovered
subsequent to the Closing, then such item shall be reapportioned and such errors
and omissions corrected as soon as practicable after the Closing Date and the
proper party reimbursed, which obligation shall survive the Closing for a period
(the "Probation Period") from the Closing Date until the later of (a) one
hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, or (b) December 31, 1997.
Neither party hereto shall have the right to require a recomputation of a
Closing proration or a correction of an error or omission in a Closing proration
unless within the Proration Period one of the parties hereto (i) has obtained
the previously unavailable information or has discovered the error or omission,
and (ii) has given notice thereof to the other party together with a copy of its
good faith recomputation of the proration and copies of all substantiating
information used in such recomputation. The failure of a party to obtain any
previously unavailable information or discover an error or omission with respect
to an item subject to proration hereunder and to give notice thereof as provided
above within the Proration Period shall be deemed a waiver of its right to cause
a recomputation or a correction of an error or omission with respect to such
item after the Closing Date.
8.5 Possession and Closing. Possession of the Property shall be delivered
to Purchaser by Seller at the Closing, subject to the Permitted Exceptions and
the rights of the Tenants. Purchaser shall make its own arrangements for the
provision of public utilities to the Property and Seller shall terminate its
contracts with such utility companies that provide services to the Property.
8.6 Delinquent Rent.
(a) Application of Delinquent Rent. If on the Closing Date any
Tenant is in arrears in the payment of any rent under any Tenant Lease (the
"Delinquent Rent") payable by it, any Delinquent Rent received by Purchaser
and Seller from such Tenant after the Closing shall be applied to amounts
due and payable by such Tenant during the following periods in the
following order of priority: (A) first, to the period of time on or after
the Closing Date, and (B) second, to the period of time before the Closing
Date. If Delinquent Rent or any portion thereof received by Seller or
Purchaser after the Closing are due and payable to the other party by
reason of this allocation, the appropriate sum, less a proportionate share
of any reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and expenses expended in
connection with the collection thereof, shall be promptly paid to the other
party. The provisions of this Section 8.6(a) shall survive the Closing.
Any delinquent rent shall be shown on all Rent Rolls and the Closing Rent
Roll (as of the respective date of such rent rolls) provided by Seller
pursuant to the terms hereof.
(b) Collection of Delinquent Rent. After the Closing, Seller shall
continue to have the right, in its own name, to demand payment of and to
collect Delinquent Rent owed to Seller by any Tenant, which right shall
include, without limitation, the right to continue or commence legal
actions or proceedings against any Tenant, and the delivery of the
Assignment of Leases [as defined in Section 8.2(a)(iii)] shall not
constitute a waiver by Seller of such right, but Seller shall have no right
to evict or otherwise affect any Tenant's use, occupancy, lease or
possession of the Property. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller in
connection with all efforts by Seller to collection such Delinquent Rent
and to take all steps, whether before or after the Closing Date, as may be
necessary to carry out the intention of the foregoing, including, without
limitation, the delivery to Seller, upon demand, of any relevant books and
records (including, without limitation, rent statements, receipted bills
and copies of tenant checks used in payment of such rent), the execution of
any and all consents or other documents, and the undertaking of any act
reasonably necessary for the collection of such Delinquent Rent by Seller;
provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to do anything
which would be detrimental to its landlord-tenant relationship with any
Tenant or which would prejudice Purchaser's own rights at law, in equity or
pursuant to any Tenant Lease. The provisions of this Section 8.6(b) shall
survive the Closing.
ARTICLE IX.
CONDEMNATION OR CASUALTY
9.1 Condemnation.
(a) In the event that all or any substantial portion of the Property
is condemned or taken by eminent domain or conveyed by deed in lieu
thereof, or if any condemnation proceeding is commenced for all or any
substantial portion of the Property, prior to Closing, Purchaser may elect
to terminate this Contract by written notice thereof to Seller within ten
(10) days after Seller notifies Purchaser of the condemnation, taking or
deed in lieu or institution of such condemnation proceeding. If Purchaser
does not terminate this Contract as aforesaid, then both parties shall
proceed to close the transaction contemplated herein pursuant to the terms
hereof, in which event Seller shall, except as limited in Section 9.1(b)
hereof, at its option deliver to Purchaser at the Closing any proceeds
actually received by Seller attributable to the Property from such
condemnation, eminent domain proceeding or deed in lieu thereof or assign
its interest in and to any such proceeds, and there shall be no reduction
in the Purchase Price.
(b) For the purpose of this Section 9.1(a), a "Substantial portion"
of the Property shall be deemed to be any portion of the Property with
either a fair market value or replacement cost in an amount equal to or
greater than $300,000.00.
9.2 Casualty.
(a) In the event that all or any substantial portion of the Property
shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing,
Purchaser may terminate this Contract by written notice thereof to Seller
within ten (10) days after Seller notifies Purchaser of the casualty. If
Purchaser does not terminate this Contract as aforesaid, then both parties
shall proceed to close the transaction contemplated herein pursuant to the
terms hereof, in which event Seller shall, except as limited in Section
9.2(b) hereof, deliver to Purchaser at the Closing any insurance proceeds
actually received by Seller attributable to the Property from such casualty
(except for proceeds previously used to repair the Property) and assign to
Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any claims
which Seller may have under the insurance policies covering the Property,
and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the amount of any insurance
deductible. In the event less than a substantial portion of the Property
shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing,
then the parties shall proceed in accordance with the second sentence in
this Section 9.2(a).
(b) For the purposes of Section 9.2(a), a "Substantial portion" of
the Property shall be deemed to be any portion of the Property with either
a fair market value or replacement cost in an amount equal to or greater
than $300,000.00.
ARTICLE X.
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
10.1 Default by Purchaser. If Seller shall not be in default hereunder and
Purchaser refuses or fails to consummate the Closing under this Contract for
reasons other than as expressly set forth in Section 4.4, Section 5.2 or Article
IX hereof or other than due to a failure of a condition precedent to Purchaser's
obligation to close as set forth in Section 7.1 hereof, Seller shall, as its
sole and exclusive remedy, terminate this Contract in which event neither party
shall have any further rights, duties, or obligations hereunder except for
provisions of this Contract which expressly survive the termination hereof, and
Seller shall be entitled to receive or retain the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit as
liquidated damages (Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledging that the amount of
damages in the event of Purchaser's default is difficult or impossible to
ascertain but that such amount is a fair estimate of such damage).
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section to the contrary, in the event
of any breach by Purchaser of any express covenant, representation or indemnity
herein contained, which expressly survives the Closing or termination of this
Contract, Seller shall have any and all rights and remedies available at law or
in equity by reason of such default.
10.2 Default by Seller. If Purchaser shall not be in default hereunder and
if Seller refuses or fails to consummate the Closing under this Contract other
than due to a termination permitted hereunder or a failure of a condition
precedent to Seller's obligation to close as set forth in Section 7.2 hereof,
Purchaser may, at Purchaser's sole option, as its sole and exclusive remedies,
either (a) terminate this Contract in writing in which event neither party shall
have any further rights, duties or obligations hereunder except for provisions
of this Contract which expressly survive the termination hereof, and Purchaser
shall be entitled to a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, or (b) enforce
specific performance of this Contract against Seller. In no event shall Seller
be liable to Purchaser for any damages, including, without limitation, any
actual, punitive, speculative or consequential damages or damages for loss of
opportunity or lost profit.
10.3 Attorney's Fees. If it shall be necessary for either Purchaser or
Seller to employ an attorney to enforce its rights pursuant to this Contract,
the non-prevailing party shall reimburse the prevailing party for its reasonable
attorney's fees.

concerning the purchase of the Property. Seller hereby agrees to pay at Closing
reimbursement of costs and expenses and other charges and amounts due to
Insignia Capital Advisors, Inc., arising out of any agreement executed by
Seller. Seller agrees to indemnify Purchaser and hold Purchaser harmless from
any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) arising out of or paid or incurred by
Purchaser by reason of any claim to any brokers', finder's or other fee in
connection with this transaction by any party claiming by, through or under
Seller. Purchaser agrees to indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from any
loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) arising out of or paid or incurred by
Seller by reason of any claim to any broker's, finder's or other fee in
connection with this transaction by any party claiming by, through or under
Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
indemnities set forth in this Article XI shall survive the Closing.
Purchaser hereby acknowledges that at the time of the execution of this
Contract, Purchaser is advised by this writing that Purchaser should have an
abstract covering the Property examined by an attorney of Purchaser's own
selection, or that Purchaser should be furnished with or obtain an owner policy
of title insurance.
