The Additional Deposit, upon delivery thereof by Buyer to Escrow Holder, shall be immediately non-refundable to Buyer except in the event of a default by Seller under this Agreement.

(b)No Extensions of Time Due to Delays in Opening Escrow. Any delay in the opening of the Escrow or the execution of supplemental escrow instructions shall in no way delay or extend the Effective Date, the expiration of the Due Diligence Period or the Closing Date.

(c)Escrow Instructions.

In the event of any conflict between such additional instructions and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

(i)“Closing Date” Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement having been satisfied, the Closing Date means 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the date that is thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (provided, however, that if such date falls on a non-Business Day, the Closing Date shall be extended to the second Business Day thereafter).

(ii)If Buyer shall disapprove any Exception reflected in the Preliminary Title Report, Seller shall have a period of five (5) Business Days (“Seller Response Period”), commencing on the date of such disapproval, within which to either (a) agree to remove, alter, modify or otherwise provide assurances reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Title Company with respect to any such Exception to title prior to the Close of Escrow, or (b) refuse to remove, alter, modify or otherwise provide assurances with respect to any such Exception (“Seller’s Title Response”).

	5

(iii)If Seller elects or is deemed to have elected not to cure such disapproved Exception(s) to Buyer’s satisfaction, then Buyer shall elect, by written delivered to Seller and to the Escrow Holder no later than the earlier of (a) the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, or (b) the date which is (5) Business Days following Seller’s delivery or deemed delivery of Seller’s Title Response (“Title Resolution Date”), to either (1) waive its disapproval of such Exception(s), in which case each such exception shall then be deemed to be a Permitted Exception, or (2) issue to Seller a Termination Notice. Buyer’s failure to deliver such written Termination Notice to Seller and the Escrow Holder on or prior to Title Resolution Date shall be deemed an election to approve such Exception(s), and any such Exception (other than Monetary Exceptions) shall be deemed to be a Permitted Exception. In the event Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with clause (2) above, the Initial Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and the Parties shall have no obligations or liabilities to each other except for those that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

If Buyer timely provides a Disapproval Notice to Buyer, Seller shall have the right to notify Buyer in writing prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period whether Seller shall correct or remedy any deficiency or item of disapproval identified by Buyer in its Disapproval Notice.

If Buyer has not expressly waived of due diligence contingencies, or is not deemed to have waived a due diligence item under subsection (i), above, and Buyer determines that the Property is unsuitable for reasons it has not already waived, then Buyer shall notify Seller of such determination by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (the “Termination Notice”), which Termination Notice shall specify the reason for the termination (which shall be a matter not otherwise already waived or deemed waived by Buyer), in which event this Agreement shall terminate, the Initial Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and neither Party shall have any further obligation to the other; provided, however, that all obligations under this Agreement which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If Buyer fails by the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to deliver its Termination Notice to Seller, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved all due diligence items and removed all due diligence contingencies under this Section 5, and the Initial Deposit and any Additional Deposit made shall be non-refundable. Time is of the essence with respect to the provisions of this Section 5(g). If Buyer approves or is deemed to have approved due diligence items under this Section 5 as of the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall no longer have any right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 5(g) and shall be bound to proceed to Closing and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(iii)If this Agreement is not terminated by Buyer in accordance with this Section 5(g), subject to the truth of Seller’s representations hereunder, and in any Seller Disclosures, Buyer will be deemed to have fully inspected and waived its objections as to each and every aspect of the Property.

6.Covenants of Seller. Between the Effective Date and the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, Seller covenants and agrees as follows:

(a)Maintenance. Seller shall continue to maintain, operate, and lease the Property in the same manner in which Seller is currently operating, maintaining and leasing the Property.

(e)Estoppel Certificates. Seller shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to deliver tenant estoppel certificates from Tenants of the Property in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit “G-1”, provided, however, that failure of Seller to obtain and deliver such estoppel certificates to Buyer, so long as it uses commercially reasonable efforts to do so, shall not constitute a failure of this condition.

The reconciliation shall be subject to Buyer’s review and consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If and to the extent the reconciliation shows that Seller’s actual aggregate CAM expenses for the Reconciliation Period exceed the aggregate of estimated payments of CAM made by Tenants to Seller during the Reconciliation Period), Seller shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for such amount at the Close of Escrow. The reconciliation, if necessary, shall be adjusted for CAM charges collected and CAM expenses incurred between the date of its original delivery to Buyer and the Close of Escrow, reasonable evidence of which shall be provided by Seller to Buyer and Escrow Holder prior to the final preparation of estimated closing statements. Seller and Buyer agree that, following the Close of Escrow, the reconciliation for the Reconciliation Period shall be conclusive and final as between Buyer and Seller.

(e)Limitation on Seller’s Liability. In no event shall Seller be liable for any breach of any representation or warranty if Buyer knew of the inaccuracy or breach of such representation or warranty prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer nevertheless elected to proceed to Close of Escrow.

If prior to the Close of Escrow, there occurs any destruction of or damage or loss to the Property or any portion thereof from any cause whatsoever, including but not limited to, any fire, flood, accident or other casualty that, according to the good faith estimate of Seller’s insurance carrier or its adjuster (the “Estimate”), would cost more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) to repair, or any condemnation proceedings are commenced or threatened in which the award would be Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or more, then Buyer shall have the right, exercisable by delivering written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder within ten (10) days after Buyer’s receipt of written notice of the determination of the amount of such cost or award, to either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which case neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, and all funds (including, without limitation, the Deposit) and documents deposited in Escrow shall be returned to the Party depositing the same, or (b) accept the Property in its then condition and proceed with the Close of Escrow in accordance with this Agreement, without adjustment to the Purchase Price (except that there shall be credited against the Purchase Price an amount equal to the deductible under Seller’s insurance coverage for the subject event of casualty), in which case Seller shall assign to Buyer the right to any and all insurance proceeds or condemnation awards recoverable as a result of such event. Buyer’s failure to deliver such notice within the time period specified shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s election to not terminate this Agreement. In the event the Estimate of the cost of repair or the condemnation award is less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), then Buyer shall not have the option to terminate this Agreement, and the Parties shall proceed to the Close of Escrow on the terms described in clause (b) above, in which case Seller shall assign to Buyer the right to any and all insurance proceeds or condemnation awards recoverable as a result of such event..

19.Seller Default. Except for Seller’s obligation to deliver the documents necessary to close Escrow as provided in Section 8 above, which shall be performed as required pursuant to Section 8 above, Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement prior to the Close of Escrow unless a failure by Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement (such failure being referred to herein as a “default”) remains uncured for a period of five (5) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of written notice from Buyer of such default (except that in the event Seller commences to cure such default within such five-Business Day period and diligently proceeds to cure such default thereafter,


	24

Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement so long as Seller is proceeding diligently to effect such cure and such cure is effected within 30 days of such notice of default), and the Closing Date may, at Seller’s election, be extended as necessary to allow such cure to occur. In the event Seller defaults in its obligations under this Agreement, after the expiration of any notice and cure period specified in this Section 19, Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy for such default shall be either (a) the termination of this Agreement by Buyer’s delivery to Seller and Escrow Holder of written notice of such termination, in which event Escrow Holder shall return the Deposit to Buyer and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for its actual expenses incurred in connection with preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and due diligence relating thereto (not to exceed $50,000), or, in the alternative, (b) a suit for specific performance and the right to file a lis pendens against the Real Property; provided, however, that in the event Buyer elects to xxx Seller for specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, such action shall be commenced within 60 days following the expiration of the cure period specified above without Seller having effected such cure and, in the event such action for specific performance is not commenced within such 60 day period, Buyer hereby waives any and all right it may have to xxx Seller for specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement. In no event shall Seller be liable for any general, special, exemplary, incidental or consequential damages or for loss of profits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer on its own behalf and on behalf of its agents, members, partners, employees, representatives, officers, directors, agents, related and affiliated entities, successors and assigns hereby agrees that in no event or circumstance shall any of the shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, officers, directors, agents, property management company, affiliated or related entities of Seller or Seller's property management company, have any personal liability under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller, and the maximum aggregate amount which may be awarded to and collected by Buyer (including, without limitation, for any breach of any representation, warranty and/or covenant of Seller) under this Agreement or any documents executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, shall, under no circumstances whatsoever, exceed $150,000 in the aggregate.

20.Buyer’s Breach or Default; Liquidated Damages. IN THE EVENT THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE PROPERTY IS NOT CONSUMMATED BY REASON OF A DEFAULT UNDER, OR BREACH OF, THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE ACTUAL DAMAGE TO SELLER BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THE PROPERTY. ACCORDINGLY, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT, IF BUYER FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY AS PROVIDED BY THIS AGREEMENT BY REASON OF BUYER’S BREACH OF, OR DEFAULT UNDER, THIS AGREEMENT, THEN THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES FOR SUCH BREACH OR DEFAULT, AND SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO SAID AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, WHICH SHALL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LEGAL AND EQUITABLE REMEDY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, SELLER’S RIGHT TO SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, WHICH RIGHT IS HEREBY WAIVED. IN THE EVENT OF SUCH BREACH OR DEFAULT BY BUYER, ESCROW HOLDER SHALL, UPON WRITTEN DEMAND BY SELLER WITHOUT JOINDER OF OR INSTRUCTION FROM BUYER, IMMEDIATELY DELIVER THE DEPOSIT THEN HELD BY ESCROW HOLDER TO SELLER IN CASH OR OTHER IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FUNDS. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR


	25

3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 20, SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION DOES NOT LIMIT IN ANY WAY BUYER’S LIABILITY UNDER ANY INDEMNITY OR OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT BY ITS TERMS SURVIVES A TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR IS TO BE PERFORMED AFTER THE CLOSE OF ESCROW. THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 20 SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. TO SIGNIFY THEIR AWARENESS AND AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 20, BUYER AND SELLER HAVE SEPARATELY INITIALED THIS SECTION 20 BELOW.

In the event of any claim for broker’s, consultant’s or finder’s fees or commissions in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement, then Buyer shall indemnify, save harmless and defend Seller from and against such claim if it shall be based upon any statement, representation or agreement made by Buyer, and Seller shall indemnify, save harmless and defend Buyer from and against such claim if it shall be based upon any statement, representation or agreement made by Seller.

The addresses and addressees, for the purpose of this Section, may be changed by giving written notice of such change in the manner herein provided for giving notice. Unless and until such written notice of change is received, the last address and addressee stated by written Notice, or provided herein if no such written Notice of change has been received, shall be deemed to continue in effect for all purposes hereunder.

23.Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)No Waiver. The waiver by one Party of the performance of any covenant, condition or promise shall not invalidate this Agreement nor shall it be considered a waiver by such Party of any other covenant, condition or promise hereunder. The waiver by either or both Parties of the time for performing any act shall not constitute a waiver of the time for performing any other act or identical act required to be performed at a later time. The exercise of any remedy provided by law and the provisions of this Agreement for any remedy shall not exclude other consistent remedies unless they are expressly excluded.

(b)Governing Law and Construction. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California. As used in this Agreement, the masculine, feminine or neuter gender and the singular or plural numbers shall each be deemed to include the other whenever the context indicates. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole and in accordance with its fair meaning, the captions being for


	27

convenience only and not intended to fully describe or define the provisions in the portions of the Agreement to which they pertain. Each Party hereto, and counsel for each Party hereto, has reviewed and revised this Agreement, and the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in the interpretation or construction of this Agreement. If any portion of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, such determination shall not affect the validity of the balance of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(c)Merger. It is agreed that all understandings and agreements heretofore had between the Parties respecting this transaction, including without limitation, any offers, counteroffers or letters of intent, are merged in this Agreement, which fully and completely expresses the agreement of the Parties. There are no representations, warranties, covenants or agreements except as specifically and expressly set forth herein and in the exhibits annexed hereto.

(d)Amendments. No change in or addition to this Agreement or any part hereof shall be valid unless in writing and signed by or on behalf of the Party charged therewith.

(e)Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. Each such counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement shall be deemed validly executed and delivered by a party if a party executes this Agreement electronically and delivers a copy of the executed Agreement to the other party by facsimile or electronic mail.

(f)Computation of Periods. All periods of time referred to in this Agreement shall include all Saturdays, Sundays and State or National holidays, unless the period of time specifies “Business Days”, in which case such period of time shall exclude Saturdays, Sundays and State and National holidays; provided that if the date or last date to perform any act or give any notice with respect to this Agreement shall fall on a Saturday, Sunday or State or National holiday, such act or notice may be timely performed or given on the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or State or National holiday. For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “State and National holiday” shall refer to any day in which the Escrow Holder, Title Company and/or the Office of the County Recorder for the County in which the Property is located is/are closed for business.

(g)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Seller and Buyer.

(h)Assignment. Buyer shall be permitted to assign this Agreement and its rights, duties and obligations hereunder, upon five Business Days prior written notice to Seller, but without the consent of Seller, to an entity that is wholly owned by Buyer or its principals, or majority owned and controlled by Buyer or its principals, or under common majority ownership and control with, Buyer or its principals (the “Buyer Permitted Assignee”). Upon such assignment, the Buyer Permitted Assignee shall assume all of the original Buyer’s rights, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder pursuant to a written assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller; provided that the original Buyer shall not be released from its duties, liabilities and/or obligations under this Agreement. The prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s reasonable discretion, shall be required for any other assignment of this Agreement by Buyer to an assignee that is not a Buyer Permitted Assignee.


	28

(i)Tax Free Exchange. The Parties agree to cooperate with each other in effecting any tax-deferred exchange or exchanges under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031; provided, however, that (a) consummation of this Agreement is not predicated or conditioned on an exchange, (b) the Close of Escrow shall not be delayed due to any exchange, (c) any rights of the non-exchange Party pursuant to this Agreement shall not be impaired due to any exchange requested by the other Party, (d) the non-exchange Party shall incur no additional costs, expenses or liabilities as a result of or in connection with any exchange requested by the other Party except those incurred in connection with the non-exchange Party’s review of customary exchange documentation, and (e) the non-exchange Party shall not be required to take title to any other property in connection with any exchange requested by the other Party. Subject to the foregoing, the Parties agree to execute customary escrow instructions, documents, agreements, or instruments to effect an exchange. Each Party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other Party free and harmless from and against any liability, loss, damage, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may arise from the indemnifying Party’s exchange.

(j)INDEPENDENT COUNSEL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ADMITS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH AND BE REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT COUNSEL OF SUCH PARTIES’ CHOICE IN CONNECTION WITH THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION AND AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY FURTHER ADMITS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS NOT RELIED ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR STATEMENT MADE BY ANY OF THE ATTORNEYS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF THE OTHER PARTY WITH REGARD TO THE SUBJECT MATTER, BASIS, OR EFFECT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(k)Time. Time is of the essence for each provision of this Agreement of which time is a factor.

(l)No Obligation to Third Parties. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not be deemed to confer any rights upon, nor obligate either of the Parties hereto, to any person or entity other than each other.

(m)No Partnership. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the Parties or their successors in interest.

(n)Marketing of Property. Until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Seller and its agents reserve the right to continue to market the Property for sale, and Seller may accept back up offers to purchase the Property, subject in all cases to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement. From and after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, neither Seller nor its agents shall accept any backup offers, market or otherwise deal in the sale of the Property with anyone other than Buyer until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.
