5.2 Conduct of Business Pending Closing. During the period from

of the most recent survey of the Property in the Majority Seller's possession
(the "Survey"). If Buyer desires to obtain an update, revision or

to rely upon or utilize the Survey and shall be free to secure another survey
from a surveyor of its choice at its sole cost and expense.
(b) Within fifteen (15) days after the execution and delivery of

Objection, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived the Title Objections unless
within five (5) days following such notice, Buyer delivers to Majority Seller
written notice of its exercise of its right to terminate this Agreement. In the
event that Buyer discovers any Lien on the Property or other matter relating to
title to the Property that was not disclosed on the Commitment that renders
title to the Property unmarketable or is otherwise unacceptable to Buyer, Buyer
shall notify the Majority Seller promptly, and the Majority Seller may, but
shall not be obligated to have the Lien released or other matters corrected to
Buyer's reasonable satisfaction. In the event the Majority Seller notifies Buyer

a material part of the Property is taken by eminent domain, or
the Sellers or the Partnership shall receive from any governmental authority
having eminent domain power over the Property an official notice of intention to
take by eminent domain proceeding a material portion of the Property, the
Majority Seller shall promptly give Buyer written notice thereof and Buyer may
elect to terminate this Agreement.
(b) If, prior to the Closing Date, an immaterial part of the
Property is taken or in the event of an immaterial change of legal grade, or if
the Sellers shall receive an official
-23-
C/M: 11145.0007 465517.8
notice from any governmental authority having eminent domain power over the
Property of intention to take, by eminent domain proceeding, an immaterial part
of the Property, neither party shall have any right to terminate this Agreement,
and the parties shall nonetheless consummate this transaction in accordance with
this Agreement, without any abatement of the Purchase Price or any liability or
obligation on the part of the Sellers by reason of such taking; provided,
however, that the Majority Seller shall, on the Closing Date, (i) assign and
remit, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep, the net proceeds of any
award or other proceeds of such taking which may have been collected by the
Sellers as a result of such taking, or (ii) if no award or other proceeds shall
have been collected, deliver to Buyer an assignment of the Sellers' right to any
such award or other proceeds which may be payable to the Sellers as a result of
such taking, less any reasonable expenses incurred by the Sellers in connection
with or relating to such taking.
(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated as in this
Section 5.6 provided, the Majority Seller on behalf of the Sellers shall cause
the Deposit to be returned to Buyer. Upon such return, this Agreement shall
terminate and neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder.
(d) For purposes hereof, a "material part" shall be deemed to
mean (i) any taking by eminent domain which would reasonably be expected to
reduce the aggregate useable square footage, (ii) if any tenant would be
entitled to terminate or amend (in a manner which would have a material adverse
effect on the lessor under the Lease) its Lease, (iii) any taking by eminent
domain would reduce the aggregate usable square footage of the Property by more
than five percent (5%), (iv) any access to the Property is taken or materially
diminished (i.e., such taking does not provide access to a publicly dedicated
street or is an impediment to traffic flow from and to the Property), or (v)
parking is no longer in compliance with applicable zoning laws or any Lease.
5.7 Casualty. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any part of
the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty, whether or not such damage
affects a material part of the Property, neither party shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement unless the Majority Seller's insurance adjuster
determines that the damage is in excess of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($100,000.00), or one of the tenants in the Property has the right to
terminate or amend (in a manner which would have a material adverse effect on
the lessor under the Lease) its lease as a result of the damage, and the parties
shall nonetheless consummate this transaction in accordance with this Agreement,
without any abatement of the Purchase Price or any liability or obligation on
the part of the Sellers by reason of
-24-
C/M: 11145.0007 465517.8
said destruction or damage. In such event, the Majority Seller on behalf of the
Sellers shall cause the Partnership or the REIT to assign over to Buyer at
Closing the claim for any casualty insurance proceeds on account of said
physical damage or destruction. Buyer shall have received copies of the
insurance coverage and approved same and the Majority Seller covenants and
agrees to cause the Partnership or the REIT to maintain such insurance through
the Closing. In the event the insurance claim is approved and the Majority
Seller is obligated pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.7 to make insurance
monies available to Buyer, the Majority Seller shall pay to Buyer any deductible
amount under the insurance policy covering the Property together with any such
insurance monies. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in
the event that the Majority Seller's insurance adjuster determines that the
damage is in excess of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), or
any of the tenants in the Property has the right to terminate or amend (in a
manner which would have a material adverse effect on the lessor under the lease)
its Lease as a result of the damage, in lieu of the foregoing, each of Buyer and
the Majority Seller (on behalf of the Sellers) shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement prior to the Closing upon written notice to the other.

amounts for which the Partnership or the REIT, as applicable, is liable under
the terms of the indenture with respect to the Indebtedness referred to on
Schedule 3.16 hereto (the "Schedule 3.16 Indebtedness"), to cause such amounts
to be deposited in the redemption sub-account in accordance with the terms of
such indenture and to cause Lender to release the Liens on the Property.

manners specified in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted by law, shall be
necessary in order to confer jurisdiction upon the person of such party to this
Agreement in any such court.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law,

of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in such a court referred to in this any claim that any such suit, action
or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, any claim that it is
not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court or that this
