25
limited to, any portion that may have been designated as the Breakup Fee, or (b) elect to close notwithstanding the non-satisfaction of such condition, in which event Inland shall be deemed to have waived any such condition.

TITLE AND SURVEY
6.1 Delivery of Title Commitment and Survey. Within five (5) days of the Effective Date, Capital I shall deliver to Inland the following items, to the extent not already delivered to Inland pursuant to the Real Property Agreement:
(a) Title Commitment. The Title Commitment (as hereinafter defined), together with legible copies of any and all title exception documents referenced therein. The “Title Commitment” shall mean a commitment or commitments for one or more TLTA Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (Form B) for the Capital I Real Property issued by the Chicago Title Insurance Company in the full amount of the Property Value, covering title to the Capital I Real Property on or after the date hereof, showing the Partnership as owner of the Capital I Real Property in fee simple, and providing for full extended coverage over all general title exceptions contained in such policies and containing the following special endorsements to the extent available (collectively, the “Special Title Endorsements”), owner’s comprehensive, access, survey (legal description equivalency), contiguity (if applicable), encroachment (if applicable), non-imputation, and deletion of the arbitration provision and creditors’ rights provision. The Owner’s Policy described herein together with the Special Endorsements is referred to herein as the Title Policy.
(b) Survey. An ALTA ACSM Title Survey of the Capital I Real Property prepared in accordance with the Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys jointly established by the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping in 1999, that meets the accuracy requirements of an Urban Survey, as defined therein, and includes items 1, 3, 4, 6, 7 (a, b and c), 8-11 and 13-16 of Table A thereof (the “Survey”).
6.2 Title and Survey Objections.
(a) In the event (i) the Survey shows any easement, right-of-way, encroachment, conflict, protrusion or other matter affecting the Capital I Real Property that is unacceptable to Inland, or (ii) any exceptions appear in the Title Commitment that are unacceptable to Inland, Inland shall notify Capital I in writing of such facts (“Inland’s Title Objections”) not later than 5:00 p.m. Central Time upon the date which is the later of October 29, 2004 or five (5) business days after the date Inland has received delivery of both the Survey and Title Commitment (the “Title Approval Period”) but in no event later than the expiration of the Inspection Period. Upon the expiration of the Title Approval Period, except for Inland’s Title Objections, Monetary Liens (as hereafter defined), and any other matters arising subsequent to the date of the Survey and Title Commitment, Inland shall be deemed to have accepted the Survey, the Title Commitment and all matters shown or addressed therein, including, without limitation, any easement, right of way, encroachment, conflict, discrepancy, overlapping of improvements, protrusion, lien, encumbrance, restriction, condition, covenant, exception or other matter with respect thereto (collectively, the “Approved Title Matters”).
27
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except for any Monetary Liens and any matters created by Capital I after the date of the Title Commitment, Capital I shall have no obligation to take any steps or bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any effort or expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify any of Inland’s Title Objections; provided, however, Capital I, at its sole option, may attempt to eliminate or modify all or a portion of Inland’s Title Objections to Inland’s reasonable satisfaction prior to the Closing Date. In the event Capital I is unable or unwilling to attempt to eliminate or modify all of Inland’s Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Inland, Capital I shall provide written notice thereof to Inland within five (5) business days of its receipt of Inland’s Title Objections (“Capital I’s Notice”). Inland may thereafter elect to close notwithstanding Inland’s Title Objections (in which case Capital I shall have no liability to eliminate or modify, and Inland shall take the Capital I Property subject to Inland’s Title Objections) or Inland may (as its sole and exclusive remedy) terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof in writing to Capital I, in which event neither party shall have any obligation hereunder other than the Surviving Obligations and Inland shall be entitled to return all of the Xxxxxxx Money, including any portion thereof that may have been designated as the Breakup Fee.

7.4 Public Announcement. Neither party hereto shall make any public announcement or disclosure of any information related to this Agreement to outside brokers or third parties, before or after the Closing, without the prior written specific consent of the other party; however, either party may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement if required by Law or court order, and to its attorneys, accountants, employees and existing or prospective financial partners provided same are advised by such party of the confidential nature of such terms and conditions and agree to maintain the confidentiality thereof (in each case, prior to disclosure).

29
any prohibition against any future disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Inland may make any and all SEC filings deemed appropriate by Inland.
7.5 Further Assurance. Capital I and Inland agree that, from time to time after the Closing, upon the reasonable request of the other, they will cooperate and will cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate with each other to effect the orderly transition of the business, operations, and affairs of Capital I.

7.6 Waiver. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the party that is entitled to the benefit thereof. Such waiver must be in writing and must be executed by an executive officer of such party. A waiver on one occasion will not be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any other breach or nonfulfillment on a future occasion. All remedies, either under this Agreement, or by Law or otherwise afforded, will be cumulative and not alternative.
7.7 Amendment. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a writing duly executed by or on behalf of Capital I and Inland.
7.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which will constitute one and the same instrument.
7.9 No Third Party Beneficiary. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of Capital I, the Existing Partners, Inland, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the parties to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.

7.11 Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
7.12 Limited Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder or part hereof may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto (and any attempt to do so will be void), except as otherwise specifically provided herein.

30
Affiliate of The Inland Real Estate Group, Inc., or any Affiliate of Inland Western Retail Real Estate Trust, Inc.; provided, however, that Inland shall remain liable for all obligations of Inland under this Agreement. Inland may assign this Agreement and its rights hereunder to any affiliate,
7.13 Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under any present or future Law, and if the rights or obligations under this Agreement of Capital I, the Existing Partners and Inland will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (a) such provision will be fully severable; (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof; (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom; and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as part of this Agreement a legal, valid, and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may then be legal, valid and enforceable under applicable Law.
7.14 Confidentiality. Affiliates of Capital I and Inland have entered into the Confidentiality Agreement dated September 22, 2004, attached hereto and incorporated herein, and such Confidentiality Agreements shall be binding upon the parties herein.
7.15 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, action is initiated to take any of the Capital I Property by eminent domain proceedings or by deed in lieu thereof, Inland may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a full refund of all of the Xxxxxxx Money, including any amount designated as a Breakup Fee, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Capital I’s assignable right, title and interest in and to the award of the condemning authority shall be assigned to Inland at the Closing and there shall be no reduction in the Contributed Capital.
7.16 Casualty. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Capital I assume all risks and liability for damage to or injury occurring to the Capital I Property by fire, storm, accident, or any other casualty or cause until the Closing has been consummated. If the Capital I Property, or any part thereof, suffers any damage in excess of $2,000,000.00 or in any amount that would allow any of the Major Tenants to xxxxx rent or terminate their lease prior to the Closing from fire or other casualty which Capital I, at their sole option, does not elect to repair, Inland may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a full refund of the Xxxxxxx Money, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Capital I’s right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage to the extent the amount of such insurance does not exceed the Contributed Capital, shall be assigned to Inland at the Closing and Inland shall receive a credit for the deductible. If the Capital I Property, or any part thereof, suffers any damage equal to or less than $2,000,000.00 prior to the Closing, Inland agrees that it will consummate the Closing and accept the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage plus an amount equal to Capital I’s deductible under its insurance policy and there shall be no reduction in the Contributed Capital.
7.17 Maintenance and Contracts. From the Effective Date of this Agreement until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement:
31
(a) Capital I shall cause the Subsidiary of Capital I to operate and maintain the Capital I Property in the ordinary course of business consistent with the manner in which it has heretofore been operated and maintained. Capital I shall maintain property and casualty insurance on the Capital I Property in the same amounts and for the same coverage as it has heretofore maintained for the Capital I Property.
(b) Capital I will cause the Subsidiary of Capital I to perform all of Capital I’s respective material obligations under the Contracts. Capital I will not, without the prior written consent of Inland (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), modify, enter into, or renew any Contract.
7.18 Leasing. From the Effective Date of this Agreement through the expiration of the Inspection Period, Capital I will cause the Subsidiary of Capital I to not, without the prior written consent of Inland (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), modify, enter into, or renew any Leases. Inland’s failure to respond in writing within four (4) business days of Capital I’s request for consent shall be deemed an approval of Capital I’s request, provided that at the time of any request for approval, if there remain less than four (4) business days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, the Inspection Period shall be extended to give Inland at least four (4) business days to respond. Subsequent to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Capital I shall not modify, enter into, or renew any leases except upon the express written consent of Inland which may be granted or withheld in Inland’s sole and absolute discretion.
