Subject to the general property taxes for the year 2003 and thereafter,
and any special assessments to become due. Subject to easements and
restrictions of record. Excepting therefrom all oil, gas and/or other
minerals previously reserved.
including the following items if presently attached to the Property: plumbing,
heating, air conditioning fixtures and equipment; water heater; light fixtures
and bulbs; bathroom fixtures; permanently affixed carpets; fencing; and trees
and shrubs.
1.2 Purchase Price. The Buyer shall pay the Seller for the Property,
Nine Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($900,000), payable to Seller at

1.3 Title Report. Immediately after the execution of this Agreement,
Seller shall obtain and deliver to Buyer a current commitment for title
insurance covering the Property (the "Commitment") issued by a real estate title
company licensed to conduct business as such in the state of Utah (the "Escrow
Agent"). Buyer shall, within five days of Buyer's receipt of the Commitment,
notify Seller of any and each title exception contained in the Commitment that
is reasonably objectionable to Buyer. If Buyer timely notifies Seller of any
reasonably objectionable title exception, Seller shall attempt to cause each
such objectionable title exception to be removed or cured prior to the Closing;
provided, however, that if any such objectionable title exception is not or
cannot be removed or cured (in the judgment of Seller), then Buyer shall, within
five days after written notice from Seller that any objectionable title
exception cannot or will not be removed prior to Closing, elect in a written
notice to Seller either:
(a) to waive each objectionable exception and proceed with the
Closing without any adjustment to the Purchase Price and accept such
objectionable title exception as a "Permitted Encumbrance"; or
(b) to terminate this Agreement and all of the rights and
obligations of the parties hereunder.
Failure of Buyer to timely deliver notice to Seller of Buyer's election under
the preceding subsection shall be deemed an election by Buyer to waive each
objectionable title exception and to accept such objectionable title exceptions
as "Permitted Encumbrances."
1.4 Permitted Encumbrances. As used in this Agreement, the term
"Permitted Encumbrances" shall mean:
(a) real property taxes and assessments for the year in which
the Closing takes place and all periods thereafter;
(b) any impositions or assessments resulting from a change in
use or tax status of the Subject Property effected by Buyer, including
without limitation any roll-back taxes payable for periods prior to
Closing;
(c) all conditions, restrictions, easements, rights-of-way,
encroachments, shortages in area, title exceptions, and other matters
of any nature disclosed in the Commitment, other than such title
exceptions as to which Buyer timely objects in writing and does not
thereafter waive such objection;
(d) all conditions, easements, rights-of-way, encroachments,
title exceptions, and other matters that would be disclosed or
discovered by Buyer making a complete and thorough inspection and
survey (conforming to ALTA minimum standard detail requirements for
urban properties) of the Property; and
(e) any other matters or conditions arising as a result of the
acts or omissions of Buyer or its successors-in-interest.

its obligations, covenants, and agreements contained in this Agreement on its
2

performance and compliance. In the event each of such conditions shall not have
been satisfied at or prior to the Closing or waived by Seller, then Seller shall
have the right, at Seller's option, to
(a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such
termination to Buyer, in which event this Agreement shall automatically
terminate, and Seller and Buyer shall each be released automatically

amount of any condemnation proceeds collected by Seller prior to Closing as a
result of any such partial condemnation, or such proceeds shall be assigned to
Buyer if not then collected. In the event any partial condemnation of the
Property results in the taking of more than 5% of the total area of the Property

Seller within 15 days after Buyer's receipt of such notice of such partial
condemnation of the Property, elect to terminate this Agreement, in which event

other provision of this Agreement, the application of any such provision under
circumstances different from those adjudicated by the court, or the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement as a whole.

of its obligations hereunder, the Closing does not occur, Buyer shall execute,

representation or warranty including representations or warranties as to the
condition, quality, freedom from defects (whether or not detectable by

hazardous wastes or substances (whether or not detectable), zoning or other
legal requirements, size, acreage, or boundaries of the property. Accordingly,

including the risks described above and/or associated with conditions that may
or may not be discoverable by inspection.

action shall have the right to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and costs from
the other party to be fixed by the court in the same action. The term "legal
proceedings" as used above shall be deemed to include appeals from a lower court
judgment and it shall include proceedings in the Federal Bankruptcy Court,
whether or not they are adversary proceedings or contested matters. The term

Bankruptcy Court shall be deemed to mean the prevailing party in any adversary
proceeding or contested matter, or any other actions taken by the nonbankrupt
party that are reasonably necessary to protect its rights in the subject
Property and the terms of this Agreement.

section 5.8 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement and
shall not merge into any deed delivered and accepted upon the Closing of the
transaction herein contemplated.
