representation or warranty by Seller provided in this Agreement with respect
thereto. Upon Closing, the Due Diligence Materials (other than the title policy,

in writing, Purchaser agrees that until Closing occurs under this Agreement, (i)
the results of all
6
inspections, analyses, studies and similar reports relating to the Property

part through the exercise of Purchaser's inspection rights, and (ii) all
non-public information regarding the Property of whatever nature made available
to Purchaser by Seller or Seller's agents or representatives (collectively, the

the Closing to any other person, except Purchaser's lenders, Affiliates,
officers, employees, attorneys, accountants, engineers and consultants or as
otherwise required by law or court order and except for any disclosure in
connection with any filings made by Purchaser with the SEC. If the Closing does
not occur, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.2(d) shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
(e) Termination by Purchaser During Due Diligence Period. In the event
Purchaser is dissatisfied, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the results
of any of the studies, investigations or documents reviewed by Purchaser, then
Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, provided that Purchaser makes such
election by providing written notice thereof to Seller on or before the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Upon termination of this Agreement in
accordance with this Section 2.2(e), the Initial Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser upon Purchaser's compliance with the restoration and the
indemnification provisions of Section 2.2(b). In the event that Purchaser does
not terminate this Agreement on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence
Period, then Purchaser shall conclusively be deemed to have confirmed that it
has had adequate opportunity to investigate the Property and to conduct such
tests, studies, investigations and examinations of the Property and all matters
pertaining to the Property as Purchaser deems prudent, and that Purchaser has
approved the condition of the Property and has elected to proceed to Closing,
subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2.3 Title Matters.
(a) Title Commitment & Survey. Purchaser shall, at its expense, (i) obtain
from the Title Company, and deliver a copy thereof to Seller, a commitment to
issue a current form of ALTA title insurance policy covering the Real Property
and with access, same as survey, subdivision, zoning and comprehensive
endorsements, if so desired by Purchaser (the "Title Commitment") together with
copies of all documents and instruments identified therein as title exceptions,
and (ii) if it so desires, obtain a current as-built ALTA survey of the Property
and deliver a copy to Seller (the "Survey").
(b) Objections to Title & Survey Matters. On or before the expiration of
the thirtieth (30th) day following the Effective Date (the "Title Review
Period"), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of any matters or exceptions
shown on the Title Commitment or the Survey that are not acceptable to Purchaser
("Objections"). Any matters or exceptions to which Purchaser does not object
within the Title Review Period shall be deemed to be permitted exceptions,
including, without limitation, all building and zoning laws, codes, and
regulations affecting the Property, including all proffers, special exceptions,
conditions, site plan approvals, and other similar matters, if any, relating to
the zoning of the Property ("Permitted Exceptions"). In no event shall Permitted
Exceptions include liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, other documents securing
any indebtedness, any mechanics' or materialmen's liens or any other monetary
liens, each of
7
which shall be released at Closing, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.7.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that the lien of real estate
taxes and water and sewer charges not yet due and payable shall constitute
Permitted Exceptions.
(c) Purchaser's Objections to Title. If Purchaser objects to any matter
affecting title or the Survey in accordance with Section 2.3(b) which is not
expressly a Permitted Exception, then Seller shall have ten (10) Business Days
from receipt of Purchaser's notice to elect, in Seller's sole and absolute
discretion, to (i) cure any one (1) or more of such Objections or to provide
assurances acceptable to Purchaser that one (1) or more of such Objections will
be cured at or before Closing; or (ii) decline to cure all or some of such
Objections. Seller's failure to respond to Purchaser's Objections within such
ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to be Seller's election to not cure
any such Objection(s). If Seller elects or is deemed to have elected not to cure
all or some of Purchaser's Objections, Purchaser may, at its option, terminate
this Agreement by giving Seller written notice thereof on or before the later of
(i) five (5) Business Days after Seller has elected, or is deemed to have
elected, not to cure all or some of Purchaser's Objections or (ii) the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period in which case the Deposit shall be
promptly returned to Purchaser. If Seller elects to cure any such Objections,
Seller shall diligently and in good faith use commercially reasonable efforts to
do so on or before the Closing Date. If Seller fails to cure any such Objection
by the Closing Date, Purchaser may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by
giving Seller written notice thereof at any time on or before the Closing Date,
in which case the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser. Purchaser's
failure to notify Seller of its election to terminate in accordance with this
Section 2.3(c) shall be deemed Purchaser's election to waive any such
Objection(s) and such waived Objections shall be deemed to be Permitted
Exceptions. Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall affect Purchaser's right to
terminate this Agreement for any reason during the Due Diligence Period.
(d) Pre-Closing Gap Title Defects. Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing,
notify Seller in writing (the "Gap Notice") of any objections to title
pertaining to any title exception disclosed by the Title Company or of which
Purchaser otherwise becomes aware between the expiration of the Title Review
Period and the Closing; provided such title exception was not disclosed by the
Title Company or otherwise actually known to Purchaser prior to the expiration
of the Title Review Period, and provided such title exception did not arise due
to the actions of Purchaser or Purchaser's representative. Purchaser must notify
Seller in writing of such exception to title within five (5) Business Days of
being made aware of the existence of such exception. If Purchaser sends a Gap
Notice to Seller, Purchaser and Seller shall have the same rights and
obligations with respect to such notice as apply to Purchaser's Objections under
Section 2.3(c) and the Closing Date shall be extended up to an additional sixty
(60) days as necessary to accommodate the same.
2.4 Approval By Seller's Corporate Growth Committee. During the period
beginning on the first day following the last day of the Due Diligence Period
and on the twentieth (20th) day thereafter, Seller shall pursue, with due
diligence, approval by Seller's Corporate Growth Committee of the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement. If as of the end of such twenty (20) day period,
Seller has not obtained the approval of its Corporate Growth Committee, Seller
may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of such termination to
Purchaser within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of such twenty day
period, whereupon the
8
Deposit shall be immediately returned to Purchaser and each of the parties shall
be relieved from further liability to the other, except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 3. PURCHASE PRICE AND CLOSING
3.1 Purchase Price and Deposit. The purchase price for the Property is
Nineteen Million Dollars ($19,000,000). The Purchase Price shall be paid by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts to be

full execution of this Agreement, Purchaser shall deposit with the Title Company

right to cancel this Agreement during the Due Diligence Period, the duties and
obligations of Purchaser to proceed to Closing under the this Agreement are

conditions set forth in this Section 4, each of which shall be deemed material
to this Agreement. In the event of the failure of any of the conditions set

attorney's audit response letter in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
Purchaser and Seller sufficient to enable Purchaser's independent public
accountants to render an opinion on the financial statements related to the

as a result of the sale and transfer of the Property by Seller to Purchaser
shall be the sole responsibility of Seller.
(b) All real estate taxes (including special assessments attributable to
the period prior to the Closing) and items of income and expense with respect to
the Property shall be adjusted between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing

or paid in an amount based upon a fair and reasonable accounting performed and
agreed to by representatives of Seller and Purchaser at the Closing. Purchaser
shall also receive at Closing a credit to the Purchase Price in the amount of

period prior to the Closing Date that were not included in the adjustments made
at Closing.
(c) At Closing, Seller shall establish reasonable reserves in amounts
agreed to by Seller and Purchaser for (i) any sales and use tax audits which may
arise after the Closing attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date

Reserve shall be used for any of the aforementioned purposes and may be
commingled. Seller shall be entitled to disburse to itself any funds remaining
in the (i) Insurance Reserve six (6) months after the close of the Property's
then current insurance cycle; and (ii) Tax Reserve after the earlier of sixty
(60) days after the completion of all such audits or sixty (60) days after the

(d) In the event the parties have not agreed with respect to the
adjustments required to be made pursuant to this Section 9.1, upon application
by any such party, a certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to the
parties to such disputed adjustment shall determine any such adjustments that
have not theretofore been agreed to between such parties. The charges of such
accountant shall be borne equally by the parties to such disputed adjustment.
All
21
adjustments to be made as a result of the final results of the adjustments shall
be paid to the party entitled to such adjustment within thirty (30) days after
the final determination thereof. The obligations of the parties under this
Section 9.1 shall survive Closing.

Seller under this Agreement and such breach continues for a period of ten (10)
days (or such additional period, up to a total of sixty (60) days, as may be
reasonably required to cure such breach) after receipt of notice thereof from
Purchaser, then Purchaser may as its exclusive remedy under this Agreement
before the Closing, terminate this Agreement in which case the Deposit shall be
disbursed to Purchaser and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for all of its
reasonable and verifiable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
this Agreement, including any and all costs of collection (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), not to exceed Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($200,000). It is understood and agreed that for purposes of this
Section 10.1, if a default results from a false representation or warranty, such
default shall be deemed cured if the events, conditions, acts or omissions
giving rise to the falsehood are cured within the applicable cure period even
though, as a technical matter, such representation or warranty was false as of
the date actually made. The foregoing limitation on Purchaser's remedies shall
not apply to any breach by Seller of (i) a representation or warranty under this
Agreement that Purchaser asserts after the Closing in accordance with Section 6;
or (ii) any covenants or obligations to be performed after the Closing by Seller
under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Purchaser's remedies with respect to the failure of a condition precedent to
Purchaser's obligation to close shall be governed by Section 4 and this Section
10.1 shall not apply such failure of a condition precedent.
10.2 Default by Purchaser. If Purchaser breaches, in any material respect,
any of its representations or warranties or covenants or obligations to be
performed by Purchaser under this Agreement and such breach continues for a
period of ten (10) days (or such additional period, up to a total of sixty (60)
days, as may be reasonably required to cure such breach) after receipt of notice
thereof from Seller then Seller may, as its sole and exclusive remedy before the
Closing terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be released to
Seller as liquidated damages and not as a penalty. It is understood and agreed
that for purposes of this Section 10.2, if a default results from a false
representation or warranty, such default shall be deemed cured if the events,
conditions, acts or omissions giving rise to the falsehood are cured within the
applicable cure period even though, as a technical matter, such representation
or warranty was false as of the date actually made. The foregoing limitation on
Seller's remedies shall not apply to any breach by Purchaser of (i) a
representation or warranty under this Agreement that Seller asserts after the
Closing in accordance with Section 7; or (ii) any covenants or obligations to be
performed after the Closing by Purchaser under this Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller's remedies with respect to the
failure of a condition precedent to Seller's obligation to close shall be
governed by Section 5 and this Section 10.2 shall not apply such failure of a
condition precedent.

performance or payment of any obligation of a party required hereunder is other

further or continuing waiver of any other breach of such term, condition,
covenant, representation or warranty or any other term, condition, covenant,
representation or warranty, nor shall any failure at any time or times to
enforce or require performance of any provision hereof operate as a waiver of or

performance of such provision or any other provision hereof. This Agreement may
not be amended nor shall any waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge
be effected, except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the
party against whom enforcement of any amendment, waiver, change, modification,
consent or discharge is sought.
