but will be paid to Seller by Buyer promptly upon collection by Buyer. The first
monies received by Buyer from each tenant after the Closing Date shall be
applied first to current rent due (unless specifically otherwise designated by

items which are dependent for their calculation upon economic performance over a
specified interval of time shall be accomplished as follows: the parties shall

Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the specified
interval. Buyer shall pay to Seller, promptly upon receipt by Buyer, Seller's

the Property not treated in Paragraphs 9(a), (b), (c) or (d) shall be prorated

Closing Date, and Buyer shall bear such expenses and benefit from such income
thereafter. Any revenue or expense amount subject to this Paragraph 9(d) which
---
cannot be ascertained with certainty as of the Closing Date shall be prorated on
the basis of the parties' reasonable estimates of such amount and shall be the
subject of a final proration thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or as soon
thereafter as the precise amounts can be ascertained. A statement setting forth
such agreed prorations shall be delivered to Escrow Holder, provided that Escrow
Holder shall not be required to calculate any prorations. Seller shall pay or
credit Buyer with all unearned advances in
8
connection with the Property or its operations. Expenses to be prorated shall
include any applicable real and personal property taxes, special or other
assessments, water rates, sewer charges, disposal and garbage charges, gas,
electricity and other utility charges, license and permit fees and other
expenses customarily prorated which are not payable by any present tenant of the
Property or any portion thereof.
(f) Seller reserves all claims and causes of action against
tenants and others owing delinquent payments as of the Closing Date. If Buyer is
holding or has been credited with a security or other similar deposit as to any
tenant who owes money to Seller, then, upon expiration of that tenant's Lease,
Buyer shall apply the security deposit to the payment of any sum due Seller to
the extent the security deposit is not otherwise applied to payment of sums due
Buyer. Seller may commence and prosecute litigation against any tenant for rents
in arrears, but shall not seek termination of any lease. Through the first
anniversary date of the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall each cooperate with
each other diligently and promptly to correct any errors in computations or
estimates under this Paragraph 9 and shall promptly pay to the party entitled
-
thereto any refund, credit or other payment necessary to comply with the
provisions of this Paragraph 9 as of and after the Closing Date. However,
-
following the first anniversary of the Closing Date, neither party shall be
obligated to make any corrections under this Paragraph 9. This Paragraph 9 shall
- -
survive the Closing Date. Either party owing the other party a sum of money
based on adjustments made to prorations after the Closing Date shall promptly
pay that sum to the other party, together with interest thereon at the rate of
10% per annum to the date of payment if payment is not made within ten (10) days
after mutual agreement as to the amount due.

AGREE THAT BASED UPON THE CIRCUMSTANCES NOW EXISTING, KNOWN AND
UNKNOWN, IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTABLISH
SELLER'S DAMAGE BY REASON OF BUYER'S DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
ACCORDINGLY, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IF BUYER DEFAULTS UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, IT WOULD BE REASONABLE AT SUCH TIME TO AWARD SELLER
"LIQUIDATED DAMAGES" EQUAL TO THE AMOUNT REPRESENTED BY THE DEPOSIT.
THEREFORE, IF BUYER DEFAULTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER
SHALL ELECT EITHER TO WAIVE SUCH DEFAULT IN SELLER'S SOLE AND ABSOLUTE
DISCRETION WITH NO OBLIGATION TO DO SO OR SELLER SHALL INSTRUCT THE
ESCROW HOLDER TO CANCEL THE ESCROW WHEREUPON ESCROW HOLDER SHALL
IMMEDIATELY PAY OVER TO SELLER THE DEPOSIT AS "LIQUIDATED DAMAGES" AS
SELLER'S SOLE REMEDY FOR SUCH DEFAULT AND SELLER AND BUYER SHALL BE
RELIEVED FROM ALL OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES HEREUNDER EXCEPT OBLIGATIONS
WHICH BY THEIR TERMS SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND,
PROMPTLY FOLLOWING ESCROW HOLDER'S RECEIPT OF SUCH INSTRUCTION, ESCROW
HOLDER SHALL CANCEL THE ESCROW.
NOTHING IN THIS PARAGRAPH 12 SHALL (i) PREVENT OR PRECLUDE ANY
--
RECOVERY OF ATTORNEYS' FEES OR OTHER COSTS INCURRED BY SELLER PURSUANT
TO PARAGRAPH 17(C) OR (ii) IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE EFFECTIVENESS, ENFORCEABILITY
----
OR SELLER'S RECOURSE WITH RESPECT TO THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF
BUYER CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER AND BUYER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH 12 AND
--
BY THEIR INITIALS IMMEDIATELY BELOW AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS.

14. DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION PRIOR TO CLOSING.
---------------------------------------
Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any casualty to the Property or
any condemnation proceeding commenced prior to the Close of Escrow. If any such
damage or proceeding relates to or may result in the loss of any material
portion of the Property in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000), Seller or Buyer may, at their option, elect either to: (i) terminate
this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, or (ii)
continue the Agreement in effect, in which event upon the Close of Escrow, Buyer
shall be entitled to any compensation, awards, or other payments or relief
resulting from such casualty or condemnation proceeding relating to the Property
and a credit to the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the deductible under
Seller's insurance policy, if applicable. No other adjustments to the Purchase
Price shall be made in connection with any casualty or condemnation.
15. BROKER'S COMMISSIONS.
--------------------
Except for CB Commercial Real Estate and SJG Development Corp. whose
commission shall be payable by Seller, neither party hereto has had any contact
or dealing regarding the Property, or any communication in connection with the
subject matter of this transaction, through any licensed real estate broker or
other person who can claim a right to a commission or finder's fee as a
procuring cause of the sale contemplated herein. In the event that any other
broker or finder perfects a claim for a commission or finder's fee, the party
responsible for the contact or communication on which the broker or finder
perfected such claim shall indemnify, save harmless and defend the other party
from said claim and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) incurred by the other party in defending against the same.
16. SELLER'S AGREEMENTS.
-------------------
(a) Documents. Promptly after the execution and delivery of this
---------
Agreement by Buyer and Seller, Seller shall deliver or make available to Buyer
copies of the documents listed on Exhibit F attached hereto (the "Documents").
---------
(b) Tenant Estoppel Certificates. Promptly after execution and
----------------------------
delivery of this Agreement, Seller agrees to request an estoppel certificate (an
"Estoppel Certificate") in the form hereinafter required by each tenant under a
Lease, but in no event shall it be deemed to be an obligation of Seller under
this Agreement to obtain executed Estoppel Certificates. The Estoppel
Certificates shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G. Notwithstanding
---------
the foregoing, if any tenant is required or permitted under its Lease to provide
less information or to otherwise make different statements in a certificate of
such nature than are set forth in Exhibit G and such tenant delivers an estoppel
certificate containing only the minimum statements, if any required under such
tenant's Lease to be made by such tenant in such a certificate, then such
estoppel certificate shall satisfy the requirement of this Agreement. In no
event shall Seller's failure to obtain any Estoppel Certificate constitute a
default by Seller under this Agreement.
(c) Operation of the Property. Between the date hereof and the
-------------------------
Closing Date Seller shall continue to operate and maintain the Property in the
manner currently operated and maintained by Seller. Seller shall not terminate
or amend any of the
13
Leases without Buyer's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. If Buyer fails to approve or reasonably disapprove any
request for consent within five (5) business days within written notice from
Seller, Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have approved such request.
17. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
------------------------
(a) Assignment; Binding on Successors and Assigns. Buyer shall not
---------------------------------------------
assign, transfer or convey its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
with respect to the Property without the prior written consent of Seller, which
consent Seller may withhold in its sole, absolute and subjective discretion. Any
attempted assignment without the prior written consent of Seller shall be void
and Buyer shall be deemed in default hereunder. Any permitted assignments shall
not relieve the assigning party from its liability under this Agreement. Subject
to the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors, assigns,
heirs, trustees, administrators and other fiduciaries.
(b) Further Assurances. In addition to the acts and deeds recited
------------------
herein and contemplated to be performed, executed or delivered by Seller or
Buyer, Seller and Buyer hereby agree to perform, execute and deliver, or cause
to be performed, executed and delivered, on the Closing Date or thereafter any
and all such further acts, deeds and assurances as Buyer or Seller, as the case
may be, may reasonably require in order to consummate fully the transactions
contemplated hereunder.
(c) Attorneys' Fees. If any legal action or any arbitration or
---------------
other proceeding is brought or if an attorney is retained for the enforcement of
this Agreement or any portion thereof, or because of any alleged dispute,
breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of
this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other
reimbursement for the reasonable fees of attorneys and other costs (including
court costs and witness fees) incurred by it, in addition to any other relief to
which it may be entitled. The term "prevailing party" means the party obtaining
substantially the relief sought, whether by compromise, settlement or judgment.
(d) Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Each
------------------------------------------------------
of the indemnities, agreements, warranties and representations contained in this
Agreement shall survive the Close of Escrow and recordation of the Grant Deed.
(e) Entire Agreement, Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement
----------------------------------------
contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect to the
subject matter hereof, and the parties intend for the literal words of this
Agreement to govern and for all prior negotiations, drafts, and other extrinsic
communications, whether oral or written, to have no significance or evidentiary
effect. The parties further intend that neither this Agreement nor any of its
provisions may be changed, amended, discharged, waived or otherwise modified
orally except only by an instrument in writing duly executed by the party to be
bound thereby. The parties hereto fully understand and acknowledge the
importance of the foregoing sentence and are aware that the law may permit
subsequent oral modification of a contract notwithstanding contract language
which requires that any such modification be in writing; but Buyer and Seller
fully and expressly intend that the foregoing requirements as to a writing be
strictly adhered to and strictly interpreted and enforced by any court which may
be asked to decide the question.
14
(f) Governing Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be construed

(k) Time of Essence. Seller and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree
---------------
that time is strictly of the essence with respect to each and every term,

(l) Partial Validity. If any term or provision of this Agreement
----------------
or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent,

(m) Waivers. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or provision
-------

time for performance of any obligation or act shall be deemed an extension of
the time for performance of any other obligation or act.
(n) Confidentiality. The parties shall at all times keep this
---------------
transaction and any documents received from each other confidential, except to
the extent necessary (i) to comply with applicable law and regulations, or (ii)
to carry out the obligations set forth in this Agreement. Any such disclosure to
a third party shall indicate that the information is confidential and should be
so treated by the third party. Each party agrees that no press release or, to
the extent within the control of such party, other public disclosure shall be
made by such party or any of its agents concerning this transaction without the
prior written consent of the other party.

and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and no third party is intended to, or shall have, any
rights hereunder.

banks are open for business.
16
(q) Waiver of CC Section 1662. Seller and Buyer each expressly
-------------------------
waive the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1662 and hereby agree that
the provisions of Paragraph 14 shall govern their obligations in the event of
--
damage or destruction to the Property or condemnation of all or part of the Real
Property.
(r) Joint Product of Parties. This Agreement is the result of
------------------------
arms-length negotiations between Seller and Buyer and their respective
attorneys. Accordingly, neither party shall be deemed to be the author of this
Agreement and this Agreement shall not be construed against either party.
(s) Indemnification. Buyer hereby indemnifies, protects, defends
---------------
(with counsel reasonably acceptable to Seller) and holds Seller and the Property
free and harmless from and against any and all costs, losses, liabilities,
damages, lawsuits, judgments, actions, proceedings, penalties, demands,
attorneys' fees, mechanic's liens, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever
(collectively, "Liabilities"), arising out of or resulting from (i) any entry or
activities upon the Property by Buyer, Buyer's agents, contractors or
subcontractors, or the contractors and subcontractors of such agents, or (ii)
from the enforcement of this agreement of indemnity or the assertion by Buyer of
any defense to its obligations hereunder. The indemnity obligations of Buyer set
forth in this Paragraph 17(s) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

not adversely affected or disturbed any such substances or materials.
