ARTICLE VII
TERMINATION
7.01 Obligations Upon Termination. Upon termination for whatever cause,
Manager shall, not later than the effective date of termination of this
Agreement, deliver to Owner the original of all books, permits, plans, records,
leases, licenses, contracts and other documents pertaining to the Property and
their operation, all insurance policies, bills of sale or other documents
evidencing title or rights of Owner, and any and all records or documents,
whether or not enumerated herein, which are necessary or desirable for the
ownership and operation of the Property. Manager shall assign unexpired service
and supply contracts to Owner or parties designated by Owner. All personal
property (including, but not limited to, capital equipment, hardware, trade and
non-trade fixtures, materials and supplies) acquired pursuant to this Agreement,
whether paid for directly by Owner or by way of reimbursement to Manager, shall
become the property of Owner and shall remain at the Property after the

request Manager to remove said property. The obligations set forth in this
paragraph shall be in addition to any and all other rights, liabilities and
obligations created under this Agreement and as provided by law.

default by Manager, the Owner shall be entitled to exercise any and all other
remedies and rights of Owner set forth herein or available at law or in equity
(unless expressly
14
waived in writing by the Owner). The sole remedy of Manager in the event of
wrongful termination by Owner shall be to xxx Owner for the loss of its
Management Fee during the applicable period. In no event shall Manager be
entitled to the recovery of special or consequential damages, nor shall Manager
be entitled to hold over at the Property after termination by Owner. Failure of
Manager to comply for any period with the provisions of Section 7.01 shall
render Manager liable to Owner for liquidated damages in the amount of three (3)
times the Management Fee which would have been payable to Manager during such
period had this Agreement not been terminated.

independent contractor hired by Owner pursuant to the terms hereof. Nothing

venture between the parties hereto.
8.04 Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and to the extent
inconsistent therewith, supersedes all other prior agreements, representations,
and covenants, oral or written. Amendments to this Agreement must be in writing

not have any interest in or claim to any condemnation proceeds for the Property
awarded to Owner or any insurance proceeds paid to Owner with respect to any
casualty to the Property; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall

separate from Owner's award in any condemnation proceeding or a separate claim
under any insurance policy.
8.12 Mutual Waiver. The failure by any party to exercise any right or
power given herein or by law, or to insist upon strict compliance by any other

remedies.
8.13 Owner's Operating Procedures. Manager shall comply with such
reasonable rules and regulations governing operations of the Property as Owner

8.15 Other Engagements. Owner acknowledges and consents to the fact
that Manager may be engaged in providing to other owners of other buildings in
the area of the Building, the same or similar services which Manager is
providing herein and that such engagement shall not be or be deemed to be a
conflict of interest or a breach of Manager's fiduciary duty to Owner.
8.16 Subordination. Manager shall not have any right or interest in the

rights of Manager hereunder are and shall be subordinate to any deed to secure
debt, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, or other security instrument
now existing or hereafter made encumbering the Property and executed and
delivered by Owner to secure any indebtedness of Owner with respect to the
Property. Manager does hereby agree that this Agreement and all of the rights,
duties, and liabilities of Manager hereunder will be terminated as to the
Property if the holder of any such deed to secure debt, mortgage, deed of trust,
security agreement or other security instrument succeeds to all of the
beneficial right, title, and interest of Owner in and to the Property by virtue
of the appointment of a receiver, foreclosure, acceptance of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, or otherwise.
8.17 Delegation of Duties. It is specifically agreed that Manager at
Manager's own expense may engage any entity or entities of its choice for the
performance of day-to-day management and operation of the Property as Manager
deems necessary or appropriate; provided, however, that Manager shall be
responsible for continual supervision of any such subagent so as to ensure the
