intentions and agreements with respect to the terms and conditions relating to
the election of the Syntek Affiliate as the successor general partner to Syntek
and the contribution by the Partnership of the cash and Properties to the Class
Entity.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
and obligations contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this
Agreement hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Nomination of Syntek Affiliate. Upon the Court's approval of this
Agreement, Syntek shall provide formal notice to the parties of the nomination
by Syntek of the Syntek Affiliate to stand for election as general partner of
the Partnership. Syntek, for and on behalf of the Partnership, shall promptly
prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a proxy statement
or consent solicitation under the provisions of Section 14 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
2. Non-Opposition to Syntek Affiliate. Subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions to the approval and establishment of the Class Entity, the
parties to this Agreement have agreed that they will not oppose the election of
the Syntek Affiliate nor will they propose any candidate to run against the
Syntek Affiliate.
3. Pro Rata Voting Requirement. All Units of the Partnership held by
Syntek, or any affiliate of Syntek, shall be voted pro rata (without regard to
abstentions) to the votes cast by the limited partners of the Partnership who
are not affiliates of Syntek.
4. Transfer of General Partner Interests/ Assumption of Notes. Upon
the election and taking of office by the Syntek Affiliate, Syntek shall assign
to the Syntek Affiliate all of Syntek's rights under the Agreement of Limited
Partnership of the Partnership. At the same time, the Syntek Affiliate shall
assume all of Syntek's obligations under the promissory note given to the
Partnership by Syntek as partial consideration for Syntek's general partnership
interest in the Partnership. As of September 30, 1997, the note had a principal
balance of $4,175,593 plus accrued interest of approximately $6,900,000.
5. Waiver of Exit Fee. Upon the election and taking of office of the
Syntek Affiliate, Syntek shall, on its own behalf and its successors, waive all
of its rights to the payment of any fee which may be required to be paid by the
Partnership pursuant to Section 6.5 of the Settlement Agreement. As disclosed
in the Partner ship's 1996 Annual Report of Form 10-K and the financial
statements contained therein, the Managing General Partner of Syntek calculated
the fee owed to Syntek to be $42 million at December 31, 1996.

6. Resolution of Disputes. This Agreement resolves any and all
disputes or claims arising under the Settlement Agreement among the parties to
this Agreement. As consideration for the waiver by Syntek of any fees owed
under Section 5 above, and its performance of this Agreement, Syntek shall have
no obligation to pay any sums to the Partnership, the unitholders of the
Partnership or the Class Members.
7. (a) Treatment of the Class Entity as Qualified Settlement Fund. It
is the intent of the parties that the Class Entity be treated and taxed as a
"Qualified Settlement Fund" ("QSF") pursuant to the provisions of Section
1.468B-1 -- 1.468B-5 of the Treasury Regulations (the "QSF Regulations"). Each
of the Partnership and the Class Entity shall treat and report the contribution
of cash and Properties by the Partnership to the Class Entity contemplated
hereby in accordance with the provisions of the QSF Regulations. The Class
Entity shall, within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.468B-1(c)(1), remain
subject to the continuing jurisdiction of the Court throughout the term of the
existence of the Class Entity.
(b) Issuance of Interests in the Class Entity. (i) The Class
Entity intends to qualify for the exemption (the "Exemption") provided by
Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), 15 U.S.C. Section 77c(a)(10), in connection with the issuance of
interests (the "Interests") in the Class Entity to the Class Members. The
Partnership agrees to cooperate with the Class Entity in perfecting the
Exemption from registration of the Interests under the Securities Act. The
parties understand that, as one condition to perfection of the Exemption,
before issuance of any Interests in the Class Entity to the Class Members, the
terms and conditions of the issuance must be approved, after a hearing upon the
fairness of such terms and conditions at which all Class Members shall have the
right to appear, by the Supervising Judge or the Court, as the case may be. If
such approval is not obtained, or any other condition to the perfection of the
Exemption is not met, then the Class Entity shall register the Interests, as
required, pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act. In such event the
Partnership agrees to pay all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the
Class Entity to register and issue the Interests under the Securities Act to
the Class Members, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, audit fees,
and printing and distribution expenses.
(ii) The Class Entity shall issue the Interests to the Class
Members pro rata to the Units of the Partnership initially issued by the
Partnership to the Class Members upon the Partnership's organization in 1987.
The Partnership agrees to provide its full cooperation to the Class Entity to
locate Class Members who have moved ("Missing Class Members") since the last
posting of their addresses on the list of Class Members (the "Class Members'
List") maintained by the Partnership. The Class Entity agrees to exercise
reasonable diligence to locate Missing Class Members. In the event that the
Class Entity is unable to locate one or more Missing Class Members, then, no
later than twelve (12) months from the date that the Class Entity first issues
Interests to the Class Members, the Class Entity shall petition the Supervising
Judge or the Court for instructions on the proper distribution of those
Interests issuable to Missing Class Members pursuant to the provisions of
Section 384 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Partnership agrees to cooperate
with the Class Entity with respect to any such petition.

8. Contribution of Properties. (a) Within fifteen days after the later
to occur of the Court's approval of this Agreement and the Court's tentative
approval of a business plan for the operation of the Class Entity (Section 15
hereof) (the last of such agreements to occur referred to as "Court Approval")
and within five days of obtaining any required lender approval for the transfer
of each Property (not to exceed sixty days), the Partnership shall transfer all
of its right, title and interest in the following five Properties to the Class
Entity:
i. Cross County Mall
Mattoon, Illinois
ii. Harbor Plaza Shopping Center
Aurora, Colorado
iii. Katella Plaza
Orange, California
iv. Southern Palms Shopping Center
Tempe, Arizona
v. Westwood Shopping Center
Tallahassee, Florida
(b) The Partnership shall pay all closing costs of transferring
the Properties to the Class Entity, including escrow fees, title insurance fees
and expenses, and transfer taxes.
(c) Invenex and Class Counsel shall have until January 19, 1998
(or, upon written notice by either of them to the other parties, until February
2, 1998) (the "Drop Dead Date") to complete their due diligence on the
Properties. The Partnership agrees to fully cooperate with Invenex and Class
Counsel to enable them to conduct their due diligence. The Partnership shall
reimburse, upon demand, Invenex and Class Counsel for all expenses reasonably
incurred by them in conducting such due diligence, including the cost of
consultants, advisors, or experts retained by them to conduct such due
diligence. Invenex or Class Counsel may terminate this Agreement, by notice in
writing to the partes given on or prior to the close of business on the Drop
Dead Date, in the event that Invenex or Class Counsel, in good faith, based
upon their due diligence of the Properties, concludes that any of the
representations made by the Partnership in Section 20 hereof is untrue in any
material respect.
(d) Neither Syntek nor any affiliate of Syntek shall charge or
accept from the Partnership a fee, commission, or other compensation in
connection with the transfer of the Properties to the Class Entity.
9. Cash Contribution. Within fifteen days of the date of Court
Approval, the Partnership shall contribute $1,900,000 in cash to the Class
Entity.

10. Issuance of Wrap Mortgages. The Partnership shall remain liable
for the payment of all indebtedness currently encumbering the Properties. The
Class Entity shall issue to the Partnership wrap mortgages in the aggregate
principal amount of $32,050,000. The Class Entity shall issue a separate wrap
mortgage to the Partnership on each of the Properties. The wrap mortgages shall
be nonrecourse to the assets (other than the specific Property to which it
relates) of the Class Entity and shall be nonrecourse to the assets of the
directors or trustees of the Class Entity and to the assets of the Class
Members. The wrap mortgages shall not contain cross- default provisions with
respect to the other wrap mortgages issued by the Class Entity with respect to
the Properties. The wrap mortgage indebtedness shall be for a term of no more
than five years and shall bear interest at 7.75% per annum for years one
through three, and shall bear interest at 10% per annum for years four through
five. Interest only shall be payable on the wrap mortgage indebtedness,
monthly. The wrap mortgage indebtedness may be prepaid at any time, in whole or
in part, without premium or penalty. The Partnership shall not have the right
to accelerate or exercise any right of foreclosure under the wrap mortgages for
any failure by the Class Entity to pay interest on the wrap mortgages for the
first 18 months of their terms, as long as the net operating income (before
payment of management fees) generated by the Properties is insufficient to make
any such interest payment(s) and to service all indebtedness senior to the wrap
mortgages. In such event, the interest unpaid shall be added to the principal
of the wrap mortgage(s), and bear interest at 7.75% or 10% per annum, as the
case may be.
11. Value of Properties. The parties acknowledge that the value of the
Partnership's interest in the properties was appraised at $43,996,000 as of
December 31, 1996. However, neither Syntek nor the Partnership warrants the
value which may ultimately be realized by the Class Entity or the amount of
distributions which Class Members may receive from the Class Entity.
12. Invenex Fee and Reimbursement. The parties acknowledge and agree
that Invenex has been instrumental in the negotiation of this Agreement and
shall be responsible for the creation and operation of the Class Entity,
subject to the supervision of the Class Entity's board of directors or
trustees. From December 1, 1997, through the earlier of the date that the
Properties are transferred to the Class Entity or this Agreement is terminated,
the Partnership shall pay to Invenex a fee of $15,000 per month plus
reimbursement of the reasonable costs and expenses incurred in negotiating and
completing the transaction contemplated under this Agreement, conducting due
diligence, inspecting the Properties and retaining experts. Such fee shall be
paid on the first of each month.
13. Additional Fees. (a) Other than as explicitly provided
hereby, any fees sought by attorneys or others in connection with this
Agreement shall be submitted to the Class Entity for approval. Other than as
explicitly provided hereby, any fees approved shall be paid by the Class
Entity.
(b) The fees and expenses of Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, P.C. in
representing the Class Members in connection with this Agreement, its
implementation, the organization of the Class Entity, and the issuance of
Interests in the Class Entity to the Class Members, shall be as authorized by
the Supervising Judge and shall be paid by the Partnership, monthly.

14. Class Entity Costs. Other than as explicitly provided hereby,
all costs of the organization and operation of the Class Entity, including
legal fees, shall be the sole responsibility of the Class Entity.
15. Structure and Operation of Class Entity. The Class Entity shall be
managed by a board of directors or trustees, a majority of whose members shall
by independent of the management of the Class Entity. The initial directors or
trustees shall be nominated by Invenex and approved by Class Counsel and the
Supervising Judge. The board of directors or trustees of the Class Entity
shall, within 60 days of its organization, prepare and submit for approval of
Class Counsel and for the tentative approval of the Supervising Judge a
business plan for the operation of the Class Entity. The business plan, as so
approved, shall be described in the notice transmitted to the Class Members, as
contemplated by Section 7(b) hereof. The business plan shall be subject to the
final approval of the Supervising Judge or Court, as the case may be, at the
hearing contemplated by Section 7(b).
16. Termination of the Settlement Agreement. (a) Upon the later to
occur of (i) the organization of the Class Entity and the transfers to the
Class Entity as contemplated by Sections 8 and 9 hereof, after approval by the
Court, and (ii) the selection and taking of office of the successor general
partner of the Partnership on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Settlement Agreement and the Settlement Plan thereunder shall
