RRC ACQUISITIONS, INC., a Florida corporation, hereinafter referred to as
"Purchaser," agrees to purchase, and RREEF MA-II CAMBRIDGE SQUARE, INC., a
Delaware corporation, hereinafter referred to as "Seller," agrees to sell, that
certain improved real property, hereinafter referred to as the "Property,"
legally described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, commonly
known as Cambridge Square Shopping Center, situated in the City of Atlanta,
DeKalb County, Georgia, consisting of an approximately 68,500 square foot
shopping center on approximately 9.46 acres of land, together with all rights,
privileges, easements and appurtenances thereto.
1. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property is Three Million Six
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,600,000.00), payable in cash or by wire transfer of
funds at Closing.
2. Deposit. Within two (2) working days after the full execution hereof,
Purchaser agrees to deposit the amount of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000.00)
(the "Initial Deposit") with Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxx, 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, ("Escrow Holder") authorized agent for
Chicago Title Insurance Company ("CTIC"), as xxxxxxx money to secure Purchaser's
performance hereunder. If Purchaser notifies Seller pursuant to Paragraph 3
hereof that all matters are acceptable to it prior to the end of the Review
Period (as hereinafter defined), then within two (2) working days after the
expiration of the Review Period, Purchaser will deposit an additional Eighty
Thousand Dollars ($80,000.00) with the Escrow Holder (the "Second Deposit";
hereinafter, the Initial Deposit and the Second Deposit are collectively
referred to as the "Deposit"). If Purchaser fails to make the Initial Deposit by
the required date, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part
of Seller or Purchaser. If Purchaser makes the Initial Deposit, but fails to
make the Second Deposit by the required date, this Agreement will terminate
without further liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, (except for
Purchaser's obligations pursuant to Paragraph 8.17 hereof), and the Initial
Deposit will be paid to Seller as liquidated damages. If Purchaser makes both
the Initial Deposit and the Second Deposit, but the transaction fails to close
for any reason other than a default on the part of Seller or a failure of a
condition precedent to Purchaser's obligations to close, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, (except for
Purchaser's obligations pursuant to Paragraph 8.17 hereof), and the Deposit will
be paid to Seller as liquidated damages. Escrow Holder will invest the Deposit
as the installments are received in federally insured accounts or paper as
directed by Purchaser. All interest payable with respect to the Deposit will be
added to and become a part of the Deposit and will be payable to the party
entitled to the Deposit hereunder. Prior to the expiration of the Review Period,
Escrow Holder will return the Deposit to Purchaser at its sole demand, which
demand must include a notice that Purchaser is terminating this Agreement
pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 3 hereof. Otherwise, the Escrow Holder
will return the Deposit only upon a written joint order from Seller and
Purchaser. Escrow Holder will not be liable for any action with respect to the
Deposit taken in good faith, any such liability hereby being waived by Purchaser
and Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser and
Seller authorize and direct Escrow Holder to accept, comply
79025/4
1
with, and obey any and all writs, orders, judgments or decrees entered or issued
by any court with or without jurisdiction. In the case Escrow Holder obeys or
complies with any such writ, order, judgment or decree of any court, it will not
be liable to any of the parties hereto or any other person by reason of such
compliance. In case Escrow Holder is made a party defendant to any suit or
proceedings regarding the Deposit, Purchaser and Seller, jointly and severally,
agree to pay to Escrow Holder, upon demand, all costs, attorneys' fees, and
expenses incurred with respect thereto. Seller and Purchaser hereby grant Escrow
Holder a lien on the Deposit for any and all such costs, fees and expenses. If
said costs, fees and expenses are not paid, Escrow Holder will have the right to
reimburse itself out of the Deposit. The party at fault will reimburse the other
party for all of the fees and expenses of the Escrow Holder deducted from the
Deposit upon demand of the other party.
3. Review of the Property. Within ten (10) days after full execution
hereof, Seller will:
3.1 subject to the provisions of Paragraph 8.17 hereof, provide
Purchaser and its agents or consultants with access to the Property to inspect
each and every part thereof to determine its present condition and to conduct
such physical and environmental studies (including a mechanical and roof study)
as it deems appropriate.
3.2 deliver to Purchaser, all to the extent in the possession of
Seller, a copy of any existing leases, service contracts, maintenance and all
other contracts pertaining to the operation of the Property, copies of surveys
and tax bills, and any notice of any statute or code, regulatory or insurance
violation pertaining to the Property received by Seller or its agents since
January 1, 1994 and any documents pertaining to the resolution thereof.
3.3 to the extent in Seller's possession, provide Purchaser with any
recent reports prepared by third party consultants regarding hazardous waste or
substances and the physical condition of the Property.
Purchaser will have forty-five (45) days from the date that this Agreement is
fully executed ("Review Period") to determine in its sole discretion whether all
matters relating to the Property, including, without limitation, the title
thereto, the physical condition thereof, the terms of the leases thereon and the
fiscal feasibility of the purchase thereof, are acceptable to Purchaser.
Purchaser will notify Seller prior to the expiration of the Review period
whether all matters are acceptable to it. If Purchaser notifies Seller that all
matters are not acceptable to it, this Agreement will terminate without
liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, other than Purchaser's indemnity
contained in Paragraph 8.17 hereof, and the Deposit will be returned to
Purchaser. If Purchaser notifies Seller that all matters are acceptable to it,
Purchaser will make the Second Deposit as provided in Paragraph 2. In the event
that Purchaser does not timely so notify Seller, Purchaser will be deemed to
have concluded that the condition of the Property is not acceptable and to have
elected to terminate the transaction, in which event the Deposit will be
returned to Purchaser and this Agreement will be terminated without further
liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, other than Purchaser's indemnity
contained in Paragraph 8.17 hereof.
79025/4
2
The Review Period will be extended one day for each day beyond thirty-five (35)
days after full execution hereof that Seller delays in delivering the materials
required by clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Paragraph 5 hereof. In the event this
Agreement is terminated or deemed terminated pursuant to the provisions of this
Paragraph, Purchaser agrees (which agreement survives termination) to deliver to
Seller a copy of any third party reports prepared at Purchaser's direction with
respect to the physical condition of the Property.
4. Tenant Estoppels. It is a condition precedent to Purchaser's objections
hereunder that Seller obtain fully executed Tenant Estoppel Certificates in the
form of Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof from (i) Xxxx-Xxxxx,
Inc., Big "B" Drug Stores, Los Bravos Mexican Restaurant, McDonalds Corporation,
SOM Video Wonderland and Cambridge Cleaners and (ii) 80% of all remaining
tenants of the Property (computed on the basis of net rentable square feet)
("Other Tenants") and (iii) Tenant Estoppel Certificates executed by Seller on
behalf of all Other Tenants who do not furnish Tenant Estoppel Certificates
within ten (10) days prior to the Closing hereunder. In the event that (a)
Seller does not deliver to Purchaser fully executed Tenant Estoppel Certificates
as aforesaid within the time period set forth herein, (b) any Tenant Estoppel
Certificate delivered to Purchaser indicates a default by the Landlord under the
Lease, which default is not cured by Seller on or prior to Closing or (c) any
information contained on any Tenant Estoppel Certificate delivered to Purchaser
materially differs from the information set forth in the leases of the Property
previously delivered to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 3.2 hereof,
(A) Purchaser will have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice to
Seller given at any time on or prior to Closing and, in such event, the Deposit
will be returned to Purchaser and this Agreement will terminate without further
liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, other than Purchaser's indemnity
contained in Paragraph 8.17 hereof, or (B) if Purchaser has not terminated this
Agreement as aforesaid, the purchase and sale will close without regard to the
provisions of this Paragraph 4.
5. Title and Survey. Upon its execution of this Agreement, Seller will
order and promptly upon receipt thereof deliver to Purchaser, (i) a title
commitment on the Property issued by the Escrow Holder as agent for CTIC, (ii)
copies of all documents relating to title exceptions referred to therein, and
(iii) a current survey meeting the minimum 1992 standard detail requirements for
an Urban ALTA/ASCM Land Title Survey, including Items 1-11 of Table A thereof,
except Item 5 and Item 6 (except to the extent such matters are customarily
shown in surveys in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area). After receiving
said preliminary title report, documents, and survey, Purchaser will have
fifteen (15) working days in which to notify Seller in writing of any objection
Purchaser may have to any exceptions reported in the title report or matter
shown on the survey. Seller will use reasonable efforts to cure any reasonable
title or survey objections either by removing same or by insurance over such
objected-to exception or survey matter, subject to the provisions set forth
below. The commitment will be for an ALTA standard form 1992 owners title
insurance policy, subject to the standard and general ALTA exceptions and
exclusions, in an amount equal to the purchase price. If, prior to Closing,
Seller is unable to remove or provide insurance over any exceptions to title or
survey matters objected to, and Purchaser is unwilling to take title subject
thereto, Purchaser may terminate this
79025/4
3
Agreement. However, if such objected-to exceptions to title or survey matters
are not removed or insured over by the date of Closing, Purchaser may elect to
discharge any tax, mortgage, financing or mechanic's lien of any amount or any
other unpermitted liens, encumbrances, or restrictions which can be discharged
by the payment of $10,000 in the aggregate or less and to deduct from the
purchase price the amount necessary to do so. Seller agrees to furnish the
Escrow Holder with customary affidavits at Closing, enabling the Escrow Holder
to waive the general exceptions. If the Closing is not consummated for any
reason other than Seller's default, Purchaser will be responsible for any title
insurer cancellation charges.
6. Representations and Warranties.
6.1 Representations and Warranties of Seller. As used in this
Paragraph 6.1, the phrase "to the best knowledge of Seller" means, and is
limited to, the actual knowledge of Xxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Seller's
executive and management personnel having ongoing management responsibility with
respect to the Property. Seller hereby warrants and represents to Purchaser that
Xxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx are the individuals currently working on behalf of
Seller who are most likely to have the information requested by Purchaser and:
6.1.1 Status of Seller and Closing Documents. Subject to
Paragraph 8.15, that this Agreement has been, and all the documents to be
delivered by Seller to Purchaser at Closing will be, duly authorized, executed,
and delivered by Seller, will be sufficient to convey title, and this Agreement
does not, and will not at Closing, violate any provisions of any agreement to
which Seller or the Property is subject. Seller will pay, or credit Purchaser at
Closing in an amount equal to, all broker's commissions and tenant improvement
costs required to be paid by landlord upon renewal of the following leases if
notice of renewal is received by Seller prior to Closing from Big "B" Drug
Stores. In addition, if not sooner paid by Landlord to Xxxx-Xxxxx, Inc., Seller
will credit Purchaser at Closing the amount of approximately $80,000,
representing reimbursement due Xxxx-Xxxxx, Inc. for store and storefront
renovations. Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this
Agreement, Purchaser agrees to pay all amounts due on account of the credits
given by Seller and to defend, indemnify and hold Seller harmless from its
failure to do so as and when required by the terms of the Leases with respect to
which the credits are given.
6.1.2 Non-Foreign Status. Seller is not a "foreign person"
within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, and that Seller will furnish to Purchaser, prior to Closing, an
affidavit in form satisfactory to Purchaser confirming the same.
6.1.3 No Default. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement, and consummation of the transaction described in this Agreement, will
not constitute a default under any contract, lease, or agreement to which Seller
is a party.
79025/4

6.1.4 No Suits. To the best knowledge of Seller, there is no
action, suit or proceeding pending against or materially adversely affecting the
Property or any portion thereof, or relating to or arising out of the ownership,
management or operation of the Property, in any court or before or by and
federal, state, or municipal department, commission, board, bureau or agency or
other governmental instrumentality.
6.1.5 Environmental Condition. Each of the following
representations is wholly qualified by (a) any matters disclosed in any
materials delivered to Purchaser by Seller pursuant to Paragraph 3.3 above or
otherwise, (b) any matters disclosed in any environmental reports or studies
obtained by Purchaser, and (c) any other matters known to Purchaser. Subject to
the foregoing, Seller represents (but does not warrant), to the best knowledge
of Seller:
(i) Seller has not released, generated or handled
hazardous materials during Seller's ownership of the Property in violation
of any applicable laws, nor has Seller knowingly permitted the release,
generation or handling of hazardous materials on the Property or the
incorporation thereof in any buildings or improvements thereon in
violation of any applicable laws; and
(ii) Seller has not received any summons, citation,
directive, letter or other communication, written or oral, from the United
States or Georgia Environmental Protection Agency with respect to the
Property.
6.1.6 Georgia Income TaxSeller is exempt from payment of
Georgia income taxes under Georgia Code Section 48-7-25.
6.2 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby
warrants and represents to Seller that this Agreement has been, and all the
documents to be delivered by Purchaser to Seller will be, duly authorized,
executed, and are or will be legal, valid, and binding obligations of Purchaser,
are or will be enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and do
not, and will not at Closing, violate any provisions of any agreement to which
Purchaser is subject and that Solomon Brothers, Prudential Securities and
Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx are Purchaser's (or its parent corporation's) sole investment
advisors with respect to Purchaser's decision to purchase the Property.
6.3 Continuation. The continued accuracy in all respects of the
aforesaid representations and warranties will be a condition precedent to the
parties' obligation to close. If any of said representations and warranties are
not correct at the time the same is made or as of the Closing, Seller or
Purchaser, as its sole remedy, may elect in its discretion to terminate this
Agreement and there will be no further liability on the part of either party to
the other, except for the obligations of Purchaser pursuant to Paragraph 8.17
hereof.
6.4 Condition of Property. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
Seller has not made and does not hereby make any representations, warranties or
other statements as to
79025/4
5
the condition of the Property and Purchaser acknowledges that at Closing it is
purchasing the Property on an "as is" basis and without relying on any
representations and warranties of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, from
Seller, its agents or brokers as to any matters concerning the Property.
7. Closing.
7.1 Closing of Sale. The purchase and sale contemplated herein will
close (herein referred to as the "Closing") at the office of the Escrow Holder,
or as otherwise mutually agreed, not later than thirty (30) days after the
expiration of the Review Period provided for in Paragraph 3, or at such other
time agreed to by Purchaser and Seller. At Closing, Seller will deliver to
Purchaser a statutory special warranty deed ("Deed") and the other closing
documents required hereunder and a policy of title insurance or later dated
marked up commitment for title insurance with only such exceptions as are
permitted pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 5 hereof and Purchaser will
cause payment of the purchase price to be made to Seller by wire transfer. The
sale (payment of purchase price and delivery of deed) will be closed through
escrow with the Escrow Holder in accordance with the general provisions of the
usual form of escrow agreement used in similar transactions by the Escrow Holder
with special provisions inserted as may be required to conform with this
Agreement.
7.2 Proration, Adjustments. Taxes, rental, and other income, and
operating or other expenses of the Property, will be prorated as of 12:00
Midnight prior to the date of Closing. Any taxes or other expenses of the
Property for the period prior to Closing which are payable by tenants of the
Property, but are not collected or delinquent as of the Closing, will reduce the
credit to Purchaser for such items. Seller will also give Purchaser a credit
against the purchase price for all security deposits held pursuant to the leases
and all interest due thereon and will assign to Purchaser any other deposits
held from tenants. Seller will be entitled to a credit for uncollected, but
non-delinquent base rent, capital reimbursements or other income due from
tenants, but will not be entitled to credit for delinquent sums at the Closing.
Delinquent sums will be considered any sums overdue more than thirty (30) days.
Delinquent amounts subsequently paid to Purchaser will be paid by Purchaser to
Seller promptly upon receipt; provided that amounts received from tenants by
Purchaser will be first applied to current charges, and the balance will be
applied to make up delinquencies on a "last-in, first out" basis (i.e., most
recent delinquencies relative to receipt of payment are paid first). In the
event Seller receives payment of rent and other tenant reimbursements
post-Closing for periods post-Closing, Seller will promptly remit such rent and
other tenant reimbursement to Purchaser. Upon reconciliation in 1997 of 1996
expenses payable by tenants (whether or not against estimates paid by such
tenants during 1996), Purchaser agrees to remit to Seller Seller's share of any
amounts thereof collected by Purchaser from tenants who were tenants both before
and after the date of Closing, prorated as of 12:00 Midnight prior to the date
of Closing. After the Closing, Seller will have no further obligations with
respect to any leases or other agreements affecting the Property, including,
without limitation, tenant improvement work, leasing commissions and free rent.
Purchaser will deliver the purchase price to Seller in good funds by 11:00 a.m.
local time on the
79025/4
6
day of Closing. If Seller does not receive the funds by such time, prorations
will be made as of Midnight on the day Seller does receive the funds. At
Closing, Seller and Purchaser will exchange mutual indemnities in form and
substance satisfactory to each in their reasonable discretion, whereby Seller
agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from all defaults of
Seller under the leases of the Property first accruing pre-Closing and Purchaser
agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Seller harmless from all defaults of
Purchaser under the leases of the Property first accruing at or post-Closing.
7.3 Proration of Utility Charges. To the extent Seller, as opposed
to tenants, is responsible for payment of utility charges, Seller will attempt
to have utility meters read as of the Closing Date. To the extent that this is
not possible and to the extent that any other obligation for continuing services
is incurred, and statements are rendered for such services covering periods both
before and after the Closing Date, the amount will be adjusted between the
parties as of the Closing Date on a time-elapsed basis. Seller will forward any
such statements which it receives to Purchaser and Purchaser will pay the same.
Seller will remit to Purchaser its proportionate share immediately upon demand.
7.4 Closing Costs. Seller will pay (i) one-half of all escrow and/or
closing fees of Escrow Holder, (ii) all recordation or transfer taxes, (iii) the
cost of the title commitment and policy, (iv) all recording fees to clear
Seller's title and, (v) the cost of the survey. Purchaser will pay (i) one-half
of all escrow and/or closing fees of Escrow Holder, (ii) the cost of any
endorsements to the title policy required by Purchaser, (iii) all deed recording
fees, and (iv) all costs of Purchaser's physical inspections of the Property
(environmental, engineering and other) and other due diligence activities.
Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 8.9, each party will be responsible
for its own attorneys' and other professional fees. Any other closing costs will
be apportioned according to local custom.
7.5 Possession. Possession of the Property will be delivered to the
Purchaser on the date of Closing and Seller will thereupon deliver to Purchaser
the originals of all leases for tenants of the Property, all correspondence with
tenants and any tenant ledger cards, supplies and advertising materials,
booklets, keys, or other items used in connection with operation of the
Property.
7.6 Closing Documents. As part of the Closing, Seller will deliver
to Purchaser: (a) the Deed; (b) an affidavit in customary form that Seller is
not a "foreign person" within the meaning of Section 1445(e) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986; (c) such affidavits as are customarily required by Escrow
Holder in connection with issuance of the owner's title insurance policy; (d)
assignment of leases; (e) an assignment of contracts; (f) an assignment of
warranties; (g) the mutual indemnities described in Paragraph 7.2 hereof; and
(h) a xxxx of sale conveying all personal property of Seller, if any, located at
the Property and used in connection with the maintenance or operation thereof;
(i) an Audit Representation Letter in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto and
made a part hereof; (j) a Broker Lien Waiver as required by Georgia law; and
79025/4
7
(k) whatever documentation is necessary to establish that Seller is exempt from
Georgia income tax withholding.
8. Miscellaneous.
8.1 Modifications. This Agreement may be amended only in writing and
supersedes any and all agreements between the parties hereto regarding the
Property which are prior in time to this Agreement.
8.2 Casualty and Condemnation. If the improvements on the Property
are destroyed or damaged to the extent that repairs cost in excess of $100,000
or in the event such destruction or damage is of such a degree as to permit any
tenant of the Property to terminate its lease, or if condemnation proceedings
are commenced against the Property between the date hereof and the Closing,
Purchaser may terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser elects to accept the
Property in its then condition, all proceeds of insurance (plus the applicable
deductible) or condemnation awards payable to Seller by reason of such damage or
condemnation will be paid or assigned to Purchaser. In the event of any other
damage to the Property, which damage Seller is unwilling to repair prior to
Closing, Purchaser will accept the Property in its then condition, in which case
Purchaser will be entitled to a reduction in the purchase price to the extent of
the cost of repairing such damage, as certified by an independent contractor
selected by the parties. In the event of any damage where Purchaser does not
have the right to terminate or elects not to terminate and Seller elects to
repair such damage, the date of Closing will be delayed for the number of days
required to repair the damage.
8.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
8.4 Notices. All tenders and any notice required or permitted to be
given under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been
given as of: (a) the date of personal delivery; (b) two days after deposit in
the United States mail, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return
receipt requested, if a response is required to such tender or notice;
otherwise, upon deposit; (iii) the date of receipt if successfully sent by

8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is be binding upon and
inures to the benefit of the heirs, successors, and assigns of the parties
hereto, provided Purchaser may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but
provided the sale to an assignee hereinafter referred to does not cause this
transaction to be a prohibited transaction as described in paragraph 8.16,
Purchaser has the right to assign this Agreement and Purchaser's rights and
obligations hereunder to any entity owned or controlled by or under common
control with Purchaser or any principal of Purchaser.
8.6 Governing Law. The performance and interpretation of this
Agreement will be controlled by the law of the State in which the Property is
located.
79025/4

8.7 Continuation Until Closing. Between the date of execution of
this Agreement and the Closing, Seller will keep and perform all of the
obligations to be performed by landlord under any leases or applicable laws.
Seller will not permit or consent to any new leases, amendments, or subleases
without first submitting them to Purchaser for Purchaser's approval, which
approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Purchaser will have five (5) working
days to notify Seller of its approval of such leases, amendments, or subleases,
and in the event that Purchaser does not so notify Seller, the leases,
amendments or subleases, as the case may be, will be deemed approved. Seller
will maintain or cause the tenants to maintain the Property and personal
property in condition at least as good as at the time of this Agreement and will
otherwise operate the Property in the same manner as before the making of this
Agreement, the same as though Seller were retaining the Property.
8.8 Brokers. Seller and Purchaser each (a) represents and warrants
to the other that it has not dealt with any broker or finder in connection with
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement other than the parties, if any,
to be paid a commission as specified in Paragraph 8.11, and (b) agrees to
defend, indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any losses,
damages, costs, or expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by such other
party due to a breach of the foregoing warranty by the indemnifying party.
8.9 Attorneys' Fees. If any action is brought by either party
against the other party, the party in whose favor final judgment is entered will
be entitled to recover court costs incurred and reasonable attorneys' fees, at
trial, upon appeal and on any petition for review.
8.10 Remedies for Non-Performance. If Seller defaults hereunder,
Purchaser may terminate this Agreement or enforce specific performance of this
Agreement. If said sale is not consummated because of a default under this
Agreement solely on the part of Purchaser, the Deposit will be paid to and
retained by Seller as liquidated damages. The parties have agreed that, in the
event of such a default by Purchaser, Seller's damages would be extremely
difficult or impracticable to determine. Therefore, by placing their initials
below, the parties acknowledge that the Deposit has been agreed upon, after
negotiation, as the parties' reasonable estimation of Seller's damages, Seller's
exclusive remedy against Purchaser, at law or in equity in the event of such a
default under this Agreement solely on the part of Purchaser and as full
liquidated damages pursuant to Official Code of Georgia Annotated ss. 13-6-7.
Purchaser covenants not to bring any action or suit challenging the amount of
liquidated damages provided hereunder in the event of such default. This
provision expressly survives termination of this Agreement.
INITIALS: SELLER _________ PURCHASER ________
8.11 Broker's Commission. Seller will be responsible for brokerage
commissions payable to Xxx Xxxxxx Properties, the listing broker. Regency Realty
Group, Inc., the cooperating broker, will be paid whatever commission is due it
from the commission Seller pays to the listing broker.
79025/4

8.12 Continuation and Survival of Covenants. All representations and
warranties by the respective parties contained in this Agreement or made in
writing pursuant to this Agreement are intended to and will be true and correct
as of the Closing. None of Seller's representations and warranties contained
herein, nor any claims, damages or injury for the breach thereof, will survive
the date of Closing.
8.13 Merger of Prior Agreements. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties with respect to the purchase and sale of
the Property and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the
parties hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
8.14 Invalidity of Provisions. In the event any provisions of this
Agreement are declared invalid or are unenforceable for any reason, such
provisions will be deleted from such document and will not invalidate any other
provision.
8.15 Seller's Investment Approval. INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
8.16 ERISA. Within ten (10) days after full execution of this
Agreement, Purchaser will furnish to Seller all information regarding Purchaser,
its affiliates and the shareholders or partners of each of them (collectively,
the "Purchaser Related Parties") as Seller requests in order to enable Seller to
determine to Seller's sole satisfaction that the transaction contemplated hereby
will not constitute a sale to a "party-in-interest" within the meaning of
Section 3(14) of the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), with respect to any investor in Seller. Purchaser agrees not to
assign this Agreement to any person on entity Seller believes in good faith to
be a "party-in-interest". Any such attempted assignment will be null and void.
8.17 Entry and Indemnity. In connection with any entry by Purchaser,
or its agents, employees or contractors onto the Property, Purchaser agrees to
give Seller reasonable advance notice of such entry and agrees to conduct such
entry and any inspections in connection therewith so as to minimize, to the
greatest extent possible, interference with Seller's business and the business
of Seller's tenants and otherwise in a manner reasonably acceptable to Seller.
Without limiting the foregoing, prior to any entry to perform any on-site
testing, Purchaser agrees to give Seller written notice thereof, including the
identity of the company or persons who will perform such testing and the
