Agreement (the "Closing"), Seller will sell, assign, transfer and convey
one-half of the Partnership Interests to Wolgin and one-half of the Partnership

(b) Mortgage Loan. At Closing, Buyer will be credited against the
Purchase Price for the Partnership Interests, an amount equal to fifty percent
(50%) of the then principal balance of the Mortgage Loan.
(c) Balance of Purchase Price. The balance of the Purchase Price,
subject to adjustments, shall be paid to Seller at Closing by wire transfer of
immediately available funds.
3. Apportionments. Apportionments required hereunder shall be prorated
as of 11:59 p.m. on the day prior to the Closing Date.
(a) Transfer Taxes. If any realty transfer taxes are due in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, each party shall be
responsible for one-half (1/2) thereof.
(b) Mortgage Loan. Interest on the Mortgage Loan will be apportioned
in accordance with the method by which interest is calculated under the Mortgage
Loan, e.g., if interest is payable on the related mortgage loan on the basis of
twelve, 30 day months, it shall be apportioned between Buyer and Seller on such
basis. Seller shall be credited for one-half of any deposits (other than
security deposits), escrows or reserves required to be maintained by Lender (as

-2-
(c) Rents. All collected rents and other payments from tenants under
the leases with respect to the Project (the "Leases") shall be prorated between
Seller and Buyer. Seller shall be entitled to fifty percent (50%) of all rents,
charges, and other revenue of any kind attributable to any period under the
Leases to but not including the Closing Date. Rents and expense escalations or
other reimbursements due Partnership, as landlord under the Leases, not
collected as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated at the time of Closing,
but for a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date the Partnership
shall make a good faith effort to collect the same on Seller's behalf and to
tender Seller fifty percent (50%) of any amounts collected (and attributable to
the period of time up to but not including the Closing Date) upon receipt (which
obligation shall survive the Closing).
(d) Operating Expenses. Operating Expenses of the Project shall be
prorated between Buyer and Seller, with Seller being responsible for fifty
percent (50%) of accrued and unpaid liabilities and being credited for fifty
percent (50%) of all prepaid expenses attributable to the period of time up to
but not including the Closing Date.
(e) Taxes. Real estate and personal property taxes shall be prorated
for the calendar year or fiscal year, as the case may be, for which such taxes
are assessed. Such proration shall be calculated based upon the actual number of
days in such calendar year or fiscal year, as the case may be, with Seller and
Buyer each being responsible for one-half of that portion of such calendar or
fiscal year occurring prior to midnight of the day prior to the Closing Date and
Buyer being responsible for that portion of such calendar or fiscal year
occurring on and after the Closing Date. All prorations shall be based upon the
actual tax assessed. If the real estate and/or personal property tax rate and
assessments have not been set for the calendar or fiscal year in which the
Closing occurs, then the proration of such taxes shall be based upon the rate
and assessments for the preceding calendar or fiscal year, and such proration
shall be adjusted between Seller and Buyer upon presentation of written evidence
that the actual taxes paid for the calendar or fiscal year in which the Closing
occurs differ from the amounts used at Closing in accordance with the provisions
of Section 3(g). Seller and Buyer shall each be responsible for one-half of all
installments of special assessments due and payable prior to the Closing Date
and Buyer shall be responsible for all installments of special assessments due
and payable on and after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller shall
not be responsible for any installments of special assessments which have not
been finally assessed (even if Seller shall have received notice that such an
assessment is contemplated) or which relate to projects that have not been
completed on the Closing Date.
(f) Lender Costs. Buyer shall pay all costs and expenses imposed by
Lender, including processing fees and Lender's legal fees, relating to any of
the transfer of partnership interest.
(g) Other Adjustments. Adjustments pursuant to Closing under this
Agreement shall not include security deposits, if any, held by the Partnership
under the Leases (which will continue to be held by the Partnership) but shall
include, inter alia, credits to Seller for fifty percent (50%) of bank balances
held by the Partnership (except to the extent such bank balances include items,
such as current rents or the like that are adjusted between the parties in
accordance with this Agreement), utility and other deposits posted by the
Partnership, any reserves held by the Lender and revenue from other sources
other than the Leases (such as laundry room vending contracts) which have
already been apportioned.
(h) Delayed Adjustments. If at any time following the Closing Date,
any adjustment under any subsection of this Section 3 shall prove to be
incorrect (whether as a result in an error in calculation or a lack of complete
and accurate information as of the Closing), the party in whose favor the error
was made shall promptly pay to the other party the sum necessary to correct such
error upon receipt of proof of such error, provided that such proof is delivered
to the party from whom payment is requested within ninety (90) days after the
Closing Date for all adjustments other than of adjustments of taxes. With
respect to taxes, proof must be delivered to the party from whom payment is
requested within one (1) year after the Closing Date. The provisions of this
Section 3(h) shall survive the Closing.

paying the fees and expenses of their own attorneys, consultants and other
professionals in connection with this transaction.

as specified in Section 2(a) hereof. Time is of the essence with respect to

pay the balance of the Purchase Price payable hereunder shall constitute a
default hereunder.
