of the Property leased to Pacific National Bank. To the extent that there
remains any unreimbursed amount payable to Pacific National

(A) TITLE DOCUMENTS. Buyer acknowledges that Seller has
provided to Buyer a copy of an existing ALTA Land Title Survey of the Land and
Improvements (the "SURVEY") and a preliminary report issued by the Title Company
pertaining to the Real Property together with a copy of all instruments
described in the preliminary report evidencing exceptions to title thereto (the
preliminary report and copies of exceptions are referred to herein as the "TITLE
REPORT"). On or before the Title Review Date (as defined below), Buyer shall
have reviewed and approved the Title Report and the Survey.
(I) As used herein, the term "TITLE REVIEW DATE"
shall mean 5:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, on the Business Day immediately
following the Effective Date of this Agreement. If, prior to the Title Review
Date, Buyer delivers to Seller written notice of Buyer's disapproval of any of
the encumbrances disclosed by the Title Report or Survey, then within two (2)
Business Days following the later of the date of Seller's receipt of such notice
or the third (3rd) Business Day following the Effective Date of this Agreement,
Seller shall provide to Buyer written notice of whether Seller will eliminate
such disapproved encumbrance(s) prior to or concurrently with the Closing and
the nature of each curative action Seller is willing to undertake in order to so
eliminate such disapproved encumbrance(s).
(II) If Seller's responding notice states that all
encumbrances disapproved by Buyer will be eliminated prior to or concurrently
with the Closing, then (A) the condition under this paragraph will be deemed
satisfied and waived, and (B) Seller shall, as a condition to the Closing, cause
the disapproved encumbrance(s) to be eliminated.
(III) If Seller's responding notice states that one or
more of the disapproved encumbrances will not be eliminated prior to or
concurrently with the Closing, then, for a period of three (3) Business Days
following Buyer's receipt of Seller's responding notice, Buyer may elect to (A)
waive the disapproval of the encumbrance(s) and accept the encumbrance(s) as
part of the Permitted Encumbrances, or (B) terminate this Agreement as provided
in Section 5.3 below. The exceptions to the Title Report approved or deemed
approved by Buyer shall constitute "PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCES" for all purposes of
this Agreement. If Title Company subsequently issues a supplement to the Title
Report, Buyer shall have until the later of the Title Review Date or five
Business Days following Buyer's receipt of the supplement to review and approve
or disapprove the matter disclosed in the supplement. If the matter disclosed in
the supplement is not timely disapproved, then it shall become one of the
Permitted Encumbrances. If the matter disclosed in the supplement is timely
disapproved, then it shall be subject to the same procedure described above for
an item disclosed in the Title Report as to which Buyer has delivered timely
written notice of disapproval.
(B) BUYER'S FEASIBILITY. This Agreement shall be canceled
and terminated as of 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time on the last day of the Due
Diligence Period unless prior thereto, Buyer shall have
7
delivered to Seller and Escrow Agent a written notice waiving Buyer's
feasibility analysis of Buyer's proposed purchase of the Property, including
Buyer's approval of the Due Diligence Documents and the physical condition of
the Property. Upon any such cancellation hereunder, the entire Deposit then held
by Escrow Agent (including interest thereon) shall be refunded to Buyer. From
and after the Effective Date and subject to the rights of the tenants under the
Leases, Buyer and its agents, employees and contractors shall be afforded
reasonable access to the Property during normal business hours, upon one (1)
Business Day's notice to Seller for the purpose of making such investigations as
Buyer deems prudent with respect to the physical condition of the Property.
Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller and the Property harmless from all claims,
liens, losses, damages, fines, and liabilities (including court costs and
attorney's fees) arising from Buyer's entry upon the Property. Buyer may approve
or disapprove the condition precedent in this Section 5.1(b) in Buyer's sole and
absolute discretion, except with respect to any pre-existing conditions
discovered, but not created, by Buyer.
(C) ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within three (3) Business Days
after Buyer's receipt thereof, Buyer shall have reviewed and approved a tenant
estoppel certificate from each of the tenants under the Leases in the form of
EXHIBIT 9 or such other commercially reasonable form as may be required by
Buyer's lender. On or before the Approval Date, Seller shall prepare an estoppel
certificate for each tenant at the Property (using a form provided in accordance
with the preceding sentence) for approval by Buyer, and upon receiving Buyer's
approval, Buyer and Seller thereafter shall cooperate with each other and use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, on or before the date which is five
(5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the "ESTOPPEL RETURN DATE"), an
estoppel certificate from each of the tenants under the Leases. Seller shall
deliver each estoppel certificate executed by a tenant to Buyer promptly
following Seller's receipt thereof.
(I) SATISFACTION OF CONDITION. If, on or before the
Estoppel Return Date, the parties obtain estoppels from the "Required Tenants"
(as defined below) estoppel certificates that are consistent in all material
respects with the terms of the applicable Lease as previously delivered to
Buyer, and shall disclose no material defaults or alleged material defaults by
either Seller or the tenant under such Lease or any dispute between Seller and
the tenant except for any defaults or disputes disclosed to Buyer prior to
Approval Date, Buyer shall not unreasonably disapprove the content of such
estoppel certificates and, in the absence of a reasonable objection to the
content of one or more of the estoppel certificates, Buyer shall approve the
condition precedent in this Section 5.1(c). For purposes of this Section 5.1(c),
the term "REQUIRED TENANTS" shall mean (a) tenants under Leases occupying in the
aggregate at least ninety percent (90%) of the square footage at the Property
that is subject to Leases, and (b) each tenant that occupies more than two
thousand (2,000) square feet of space at the Property.
(II) FAILURE TO SATISFY CONDITION. If, on or before
the Estoppel Return Date, the parties are unable to obtain estoppel certificates
from the Required Tenants that satisfy the requirements of the first sentence of
Section 5.1(c)(i), above, then for three (3) Business Days thereafter, Buyer
shall have the option either to (a) waive the special condition set forth in
this Section 5.1(c), based upon the estoppel certificates received; or (b)
extend the Closing Date for up to fourteen (14) days to allow Seller more time
to obtain additional estoppel certificates. If Buyer elects to extend the
Closing Date pursuant to the foregoing clause "(b)" and the parties thereafter:
(A) Receive prior to the extended Closing
Date from the Required Tenants estoppel certificates that satisfy the
requirements of the first sentence of Section 5.1(c)(i), above, then the
condition set forth in this Section 5.1(c) shall be deemed to have been
satisfied.
(B) Do not receive, prior to the delayed
Closing Date, from the Required Tenants estoppel certificates that satisfy the
requirements of the first sentence of Section 5.1(c)(i), above, then Buyer may
elect either to waive the condition set forth in this Section 5.1(c) and
8
proceed to close or to terminate this Agreement and the escrow established
hereunder, in which event the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer.
(D) ASSUMPTION OF CONTRACTS. Seller at its cost and expense
shall terminate as of the Closing any existing property management and leasing
agreements in respect of the Property. Buyer shall notify Seller no later than
the Approval Date if it desires to receive an assignment of, and to assume
Seller's rights and obligations under, any other Contracts or other agreements
pertaining to the Property (other than the Leases, Contracts, or agreements
otherwise constituting Permitted Encumbrances), which notice shall specify the
Contracts or other agreements to be assigned and assumed. Seller shall terminate
all other Contracts or agreements pertaining to the Property on or before the
Closing Date, other than (i) those which Buyer elects to assume, and (ii) those
which by their terms cannot be terminated until after the Closing Date (which
Contracts buyer shall assume); provided that Seller shall specifically identify
such non-terminable Contracts to Buyer in writing at least five (5) business
days prior to the Approval Date.
5.2 SATISFACTION/WAIVER. Buyer may unilaterally waive any special
condition described in Section 5.1, above. Satisfaction or waiver of a special
condition will be effective only if the same is (a) in writing, (b) signed by
Buyer, and (c) delivered to Seller and Escrow Agent.
5.3 TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. In the event any of the special
conditions precedent described in Section 5.1, above, is not timely satisfied or
waived within the time periods provided above, Buyer may terminate this
Agreement by delivering to Escrow Agent and the other party a notice of
termination. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in the preceding
sentence, then (a) Escrow Agent shall return to Buyer any deposits made by Buyer
and any interest accrued thereon, (b) all costs incurred by each party shall be
borne by such party, (c) all costs incurred by Escrow Agent shall be borne by
the party responsible for such costs as provided herein, and (d) thereafter, no
party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement other

7.3 PRORATIONS. The following adjustments shall be made with respect
to the Property, and the following procedures shall be followed
10
(A) PREPARATION OF PRORATIONS. At least seven (7) days
before the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver, or cause Escrow Agent
to prepare and deliver, to Buyer an unaudited statement for the Property (the
"PRELIMINARY PRORATION STATEMENT") showing prorations for the items set forth
below, calculated as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, on the basis of a
365-day year. Buyer and its representatives and auditors shall be afforded
reasonable access to Seller's books and records with respect to the Property and
Seller's work papers pertaining to the Preliminary Proration Statement to
confirm the accuracy of the Preliminary Proration Statement. Buyer and Seller
shall agree upon any adjustments to be made to the Preliminary Proration
Statement before the Closing, and at the Closing, Buyer or Seller, as
applicable, shall receive a credit equal to the net amount due Buyer or Seller,
as applicable, pursuant to the Preliminary Proration Statement as finally agreed
upon by Buyer and Seller. The items to be covered by the Preliminary Proration
Statement are as follows:
(I) Rents, including percentage rents, escalation
charges for real estate taxes, parking charges, marketing fund charges,
operating expenses, maintenance escalation rents or charges, cost-of-living
increases or other charges of a similar nature, if any, and any additional
charges and expenses payable under the Leases (but only to the extent collected
before the Closing Date); PROVIDED THAT if any of the foregoing are not finally
adjusted between the landlord and tenant under any Lease until after the
preparation of the Preliminary Proration Statement then proration of such items
shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 7.4 hereof;
(II) Non-delinquent real property taxes and
assessments; provided that if the real property tax assessment for the fiscal
year in which the Closing occurs has not been issued as of the Closing Date,
real property taxes shall be prorated based on the most recent assessed value of
the Property, multiplied by the current tax rate, and such tax proration shall
be subject to adjustment pursuant to subparagraph (d) of this Section 7.3.
(III) The current installment (only) on any
improvement bonds which are a lien on the Property; Buyer shall take the
Property subject to all future installments due under any such improvement bonds
after the Closing (except to the extent delinquent);
(IV) Water, sewer and utility charges;
(V) Amounts payable under the Contracts being
assumed by Buyer;
(VI) Permits, licenses and/or inspection fees
(calculated on the basis of the period covered), but only to the extent
transferred to Buyer;
(VII) Any other expenses normal to the operation and
maintenance of the Property.
(B) PRINCIPLES OF PRORATIONS; COLLECTIONS AND PAYMENTS.
After the Closing, Buyer shall collect all revenues with respect to the
Property, even if such revenues relate to periods before the Closing, PROVIDED
THAT such revenues related to periods before the Closing shall be paid to Seller
through the prorations to be made pursuant to this Section 7.3 and Section 7.4,
below. After the Closing Buyer shall pay all expenses with respect to the
Property, even if such expenses relate to periods before the Closing; provided
that Buyer shall have no obligation to pay any expenses that relate to periods
before the Closing except to the extent Buyer has received a credit from Seller
for the same through the prorations to be made pursuant to this Section 7.3 and
Section 7.4, below, or the same are reimbursable to Buyer from tenants. Seller
agrees to cooperate with Buyer by endorsing (without recourse) in favor of Buyer
any checks which may be received after the Closing, but which are made payable
to Seller (or its affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, or the provisions
of Section 7.3(a), above, if any tenant pays
11
rent in arrears, rent due for such tenant for the month in which the Closing
occurs shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller promptly following receipt
thereof by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be. Buyer shall use reasonable
efforts consistent with prudent business practices to collect rents or other
amounts payable under the Leases that were delinquent as of the Closing Date and
that relate to a period before the Closing. To the extent such delinquent rents
and other amounts are collected by Buyer, Buyer may deduct from the amount owed
to Seller an amount equal to the out-of-pocket third-party collection costs
(including attorneys' fees and costs) actually incurred by Buyer in collecting
such rents and other amounts due to Seller. Subject to the foregoing sentence,
any rent or other payment actually received by Buyer after the Closing from any
tenant which owed rent that was delinquent as of the Closing Date shall be
applied first, to such tenant's unpaid monetary obligations under the applicable
Lease with respect to any periods from the Closing Date through the end of the
month in which such payment is made, in such order as Buyer may elect, until
such monetary obligations have been paid in full; any remaining amount of such
payment shall be paid over to Seller, for application against such tenant's
delinquent monetary obligations under the applicable Lease with respect to any
periods before the Closing Date, in such order as Seller may elect, until such
delinquent monetary obligations have been paid in full; and any remaining amount
of such payment shall be retained by Buyer for application against such tenant's
future obligations under the applicable Lease.
(C) SECURITY DEPOSITS. At the Closing, Seller shall assign
and deliver to Buyer all prepaid rent, security deposits, letters of credit and
other collateral given by any tenants to Seller or any of its affiliates or
predecessors-in-interest pursuant to any of the Leases, less any portions
thereof applied in accordance with the respective Lease (together with a
statement regarding such applications). If any Tenants have posted letters of
credit as security under their Leases, in addition to delivering the same to
Buyer at the Closing, Seller shall execute any documents required by the issuing
bank to transfer the beneficiary's interest thereunder to Buyer, and Seller
shall take any actions reasonably requested by Buyer after the Closing to
effectuate such transfer.
(D) POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Section 7.3, (i) if the amount of the real
property taxes and assessments payable with respect to the Property for any
period before Closing is determined to be more than the amount of such real
property taxes and assessments that is prorated herein (in the case of the
current year) or that was paid by Seller (in the case of any prior year), due to
a reassessment of the value of the Property or otherwise, Seller and Buyer shall
promptly adjust the proration of such real property taxes and assessments after
the determination of such amounts, and Seller shall pay to Buyer any increase in
the amount of such real property taxes and assessments applicable to any period
before Closing; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to pay to
Buyer any portion of such increase that is payable by tenants under their
respective Leases; and (ii) if the amount of the real property taxes and
assessments payable with respect to the Property for any period before Closing
is determined to be less than the amount of such real property taxes and
assessments that is prorated herein (in the case of the current year) or that
was paid by Seller (in the case of any prior year), due to an appeal of the
taxes by Seller, a reassessment of the value of the Property or otherwise,
Seller and Buyer shall promptly adjust the proration of such real property taxes
and assessments after the determination of such amounts, and (A) Buyer shall pay
to Seller any refund received by Buyer representing such a decrease in the
amount of such real property taxes and assessments applicable to any period
before Closing; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Buyer shall not be required to pay to
Seller any portion of such refund which is payable to tenants under their
respective Leases, and (B) Seller shall be entitled to retain any refund
received by Seller representing such a decrease in the amount of such real
property taxes and assessments applicable to any period before Closing;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Seller shall pay to Buyer that portion of any such
refund that is payable to Tenants under their respective Leases.
12
7.4 POST-CLOSING RECONCILIATION
(A) CERTAIN DELAYED PRORATIONS. If any tenants are required
to pay percentage rents, escalation charges for real estate taxes, parking
charges, marketing fund charges, operating expenses, maintenance escalation
rents or charges, cost-of-living increases or other charges of a similar nature
("ADDITIONAL RENTS"), then, with respect to those Additional Rents which are not
finally adjusted between the landlord and any tenant under any Lease until after
the preparation of the Preliminary Proration Statement pursuant to Section
7.3(a) hereof, Buyer shall submit to Seller, within thirty (30) days after the
Additional Rents have been finally adjusted between Buyer and the tenants, a
supplemental statement (a "SUPPLEMENTAL PRORATION STATEMENT") covering any such
Additional Rents or any other items which have been finally adjusted between
Buyer and such tenants, containing a calculation of the prorations of such
Additional Rents and such other items, prepared based on the principles set
forth in Section 7.3(a) hereof, PROVIDED THAT in making such adjustment, the
parties shall exclude any Additional Rents arising from increased real property
taxes for the Property to the extent such increase results from Buyer's purchase
of the Property.
(B) AUDIT RIGHTS FOR SUPPLEMENTAL PRORATION STATEMENTS.
Seller and its representatives shall be afforded the opportunity to review all
underlying financial records and work papers pertaining to the preparation of
all Supplemental Proration Statements, and Buyer shall permit Seller and its
representatives to have full access to the books and records in the possession
of Buyer or any party to whom Buyer has given custody of the same relating to
the Property to permit Seller to review the Supplemental Proration Statements.
Any Supplemental Proration Statement prepared by Buyer shall be final and
binding for purposes of this Agreement unless Seller shall give written notice
to Buyer of disagreement with the prorations contained therein within thirty
(30) days following Seller's receipt of such Supplemental Proration Statement,
specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of such disagreement. If
Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to any
Supplemental Proration Statement within ten (10) business days following receipt
by Buyer of the notice referred to above, either party may pursue any remedy
available for the resolution of such dispute.
(C) PAYMENTS FOR ADJUSTMENTS. Any net credit due Seller or
Buyer, as the case may be, shall be paid to Seller or Buyer, as the case may be,
within seventy-five (75) days after the delivery of a Supplemental Proration
Statement to Seller, unless Seller approves any such statement before the
expiration of the applicable thirty (30) day period provided in Section 7.4(b)
hereof, in which case such payment shall be made within fifteen (15) days after
Seller notifies Buyer of such approval, or unless Seller notifies Buyer of a
disagreement with respect to any such statement as provided in Section 7.4(b)
hereof, in which case such payment (less a hold back sufficient to cover the
amount of the disagreement) shall be made within fifteen (15) days after Seller
notifies Buyer of such disagreement, and any further payment due after such
disagreement is resolved shall be paid within fifteen (15) days after the
resolution of such disagreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
the total amount paid by any tenant as estimated payments of Additional Rents
for the 2005 calendar year is less than the total amount owed by such tenant for
Additional Rents for such year, based on the final adjustment thereof, Buyer
shall not be required to pay Seller Seller's share of such shortfall until the
same is actually paid by the tenant to Buyer.
7.5 PURPOSE AND INTENT. Except as expressly provided herein, the
purpose and intent as to the provisions of prorations and apportionments set
forth in this Section 7 and elsewhere in this Agreement is that Seller shall
bear all expenses of ownership and operation of the Property and shall receive
all income therefrom accruing through midnight at the end of the day preceding
the Closing and Buyer shall bear all such expenses and receive all such income
accruing thereafter.
7.6 SURVIVAL. The obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Section
7 shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year.
13

warranties of Seller expressly set forth herein and as provided in Section 8.2,
Buyer is relying solely on its own investigation of the Property and review of
such information and documents in determining whether or not to purchase the
Property, and not on any information provided or to be provided by Seller. Buyer
further acknowledges and agrees that any information made available to Buyer or
provided or to be provided by or on behalf of Seller with respect to the
Property was obtained from a variety of sources and that Seller has not made any
independent investigation or verification of such information and, except as

8.3 RELEASE BY BUYER. Except for claims arising from a breach by
Seller of its express representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.1,
above, Seller's express covenants set forth in Section 8.4, below, and Seller's
refusal to close other than by reason of the failure of a condition precedent to
Seller's obligations or Buyer's breach hereunder, Buyer and anyone claiming by,

irrevocably releases Seller, its employees, officers, directors,
representatives, agents, servants, attorneys, partners, members, affiliates,
parent, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and all persons, firms,
corporations and organizations in its behalf ("RELEASED PARTIES") from any and
all claims that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any of the Released
Parties for any costs, loss, liability, damage, expenses, demand, action or
cause of action arising from or related to any environmental matters, affecting
the property, or any portion thereof. This
16
release includes claims of which Buyer is presently unaware or which Buyer does
not presently suspect to exist which, if known by Buyer, would materially affect
Buyer's release to Seller. Buyer specifically waives the provision of California
Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:
"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR
DOES NOT KNOW OR EXPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN TO HIM MUST HAVE
MATERIALLY AFFECTED THE SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."
In this connection and to the extent permitted by law, Buyer hereby agrees,
represents and warrants, which representation and warranty shall survive the
Closing and not be merged with the Deed, that Buyer realizes and acknowledges
that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise
to causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs,
losses and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected,
and Buyer further agrees, represents and warrants, which representation and
warranty shall survive the Closing and not be merged with the Deed, that the
waivers and releases herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of
that realization and that Buyer nevertheless hereby intends to release,
discharge and acquit Seller from any such unknown causes of action, claims,
demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which might
in any way be included as a material portion of the consideration given to
Seller by Buyer in exchange for Seller's performance hereunder.
8.4 COVENANTS OF SELLER. Seller hereby covenants and agrees with
Buyer that, pending the Closing or termination of this Agreement:
(A) AMENDMENT TO LEASES. From and after the Approval Date,
Seller will not alter, amend or modify the terms or provisions of the Leases, or
enter into any new Leases without the prior written approval of Buyer, which
approval may not be unreasonably withheld. Seller agrees to provide Buyer with a
copy of any new lease, or amendment or termination agreement of any existing
Lease entered into by Seller, as well as disclose the amount of all costs
related thereto, prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days prior to the
Approval Date. Seller shall remain responsible for the payment of the cost of
tenant improvements, leasing or brokerage commission(s) and any other costs
associated with any existing Lease executed prior to the Effective Date except
to the extent the same are payable with respect to any option to extend any such
Lease, which option is exercised after the Effective Date. Provided that Buyer
closes the purchase and sale of the Property hereunder, Buyer shall be
responsible for the payment of (or to the extent Seller has paid the same prior
to Closing, providing to Seller at Closing a credit for) the cost of tenant
improvements, leasing or brokerage commission(s) and any other costs associated
with any new Lease or amendment of an existing Lease executed after the
Effective Date, provided that (i) with respect to leases executed after the
Effective Date and before the Approval Date, Buyer was given the opportunity to
review such Lease prior to the Approval Date; and (ii) with respect to leases
executed after the Approval Date, Buyer approved same in writing.
(B) OPERATION OF PROPERTY. Seller will continue to operate
the Property in the same manner as prior to the execution of this Agreement and
make any and all repairs and maintenance reasonably required to deliver the
Property to Buyer at Closing in its present condition, normal wear and tear
excepted; PROVIDED THAT, the foregoing is not intended and shall not be
construed to require Seller to undertake any capital expenditures at the
Property prior to the Closing Date except to the extent the need for such
capital expenditure results from an event of failure of a building system or
component which cannot be adequately repaired so as to permit continued
operation of the Property in the manner in which the same has historically been
operated. However, without Buyer's consent, Seller shall not enter into any
contracts that Buyer would be required to assume at Closing or that would impose
financial obligations upon Buyer, except in case of emergency (in which case
such contract shall be cancelable on
17
thirty (30) days' notice), PROVIDED THAT the foregoing is not intended and shall
not be construed to relieve Seller of its obligation under Section 5.1(d),
above, to terminate all existing property management and leasing agreements for
the Property as of the Closing. If Seller enters into any such contract, it
shall promptly provide written notice thereof to Buyer and unless Buyer, within
ten (10) days thereafter, notifies Seller in writing of its intention to assume
such contract, it shall be treated as a contract disapproved by Buyer.
(C) INSURANCE. Seller will keep the Property insured against
fire and other hazards covered by extended coverage endorsement and
comprehensive public liability insurance against claims for bodily injury, death
and property damage occurring in, on or about the Property.
(D) CONTRACTS AND LIENS. At the time of the Closing, there
will be no outstanding written or oral contracts made by Seller for any
improvements to the Property which have not been fully paid for and Seller shall
cause to be discharged all mechanic's and materialmen's liens arising from any
labor or materials furnished to the Property prior to the time of Closing.
(E) NOTICES OF CHANGES IN TENANT CIRCUMSTANCES. Seller
covenants and agrees to provide to Buyer upon transmission or receipt, as
applicable, copies of all (a) default letters sent to or received from the
Tenant, (b) correspondence received from a Tenant that it is "going dark" or
seeking to renegotiate its Tenant Lease, and (c) notices of bankruptcy filings
received with respect to any tenants at the Property.
8.5 SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Subject
to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.5, all of the covenants,
representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.4,
above, shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed. In the event
that, prior to the Closing, (i) Buyer discovers any material misrepresentation
of Seller or any material breach of Seller's representations or warranties
hereunder (excluding any misrepresentation amounting to fraud), or (ii) after
the Effective Date, there occurs a change in circumstances that causes one or
more of Seller's representations above to be materially untrue, then Buyer shall
have the right, as Buyer's sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement and, if
Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement, the following shall apply:
(A) RETURN OF DEPOSIT. Buyer shall be entitled to a return
of the Initial Deposit and Additional Deposit, if any, and any interest thereon.
(B) TITLE AND ESCROW CHARGES. All title and escrow charges
shall be paid by Seller.
If, notwithstanding Buyer's discovery of a misrepresentation by Seller or a
change of circumstances, Buyer elects to affirm this Agreement and proceed with
the Closing, then such election shall, upon the Closing, constitute a waiver by
Buyer of any and all claims relating to such misrepresentation of Seller or
change of circumstances. If, after the Closing, Buyer discovers a breach of any
representation or warranty in Section 8.1, then any action by Buyer for breach
of such representation or warranty under Section 8.1 must be commenced within
one (1) year following the Closing, PROVIDED THAT in no event may Buyer recover
from Seller, with respect to all such claims asserted by Buyer hereunder, an
amount in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) in the
aggregate.
9. POSSESSION. Subject to the rights of the tenants under the Leases,
possession of the Property shall be delivered by Seller to Buyer as of the time
of recording the Deed on the day of Closing.
18
10. CASUALTY LOSS; CONDEMNATION. If, before the Closing, the Property, or
any part thereof, shall be damaged by fire, flooding, vandalism, windstorm,
explosion or other casualty (collectively "CASUALTY") or if condemnation
proceedings are commenced (or threatened to be commenced) against the Property,
the following provisions shall apply:
10.1 CASUALTY. If the Property suffers a Casualty and the reasonably
estimated cost of repairing damage caused by the Casualty shall equal or exceed
Five Hundred Thousand ($500,000.00) (the "CASUALTY AMOUNT"), then Buyer may
terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to Seller within 21
business days following written notification to Buyer of the Casualty and Escrow
Agent shall return to Buyer any funds deposited with Escrow. If the Property
shall suffer a Casualty from a risk for which Seller is entitled to insurance
coverage, and if the reasonably estimated cost of repairing such damage shall be
less than the Casualty Amount, then (a) Seller shall, at its sole expense,
either (i) promptly proceed to repair the Property to substantially the same
condition that existed prior to the Casualty, or (ii) assign to Buyer all rights
to the insurance proceeds covering the Casualty, and grant to Buyer a credit for
any deductible amount required to be paid under any applicable casualty
insurance policy; (b) neither Seller nor Buyer shall be entitled to terminate
this Agreement by reason of such Casualty; and (c) if Seller elects to restore
the Property to its condition prior to the Casualty, then at Buyer's option
either (i) the Closing Date shall be extended for a period equal to the time
reasonably required to effect such repairs (but in no event greater than sixty
(60) days), or (ii) the Closing shall occur and Seller shall complete the
repairs following the Closing.
10.2 SELLER'S ELECTION TO TERMINATE OR RESTORE PROPERTY. If (a) a
Casualty occurs resulting in reasonable repair costs exceeding the Casualty
Amount, and (b) this Agreement is not so terminated by Buyer as provided in the
preceding paragraph, then Seller shall either (i) by written notice to Buyer
within 14 days following the last date on which Buyer could have so terminated
this Agreement, elect not to restore the Property, in which event Buyer shall
have the right either to (A) terminate this Agreement by written notice to
Seller within ten (10) days following Buyer's receipt of such notice from
Seller, as provided for above, whereupon any deposits shall be returned to
Buyer, or (B) consummate the acquisition of the Property in accordance with this
Agreement and (x) all rights to insurance proceeds otherwise payable to Seller
on account of such Casualty shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing, (y) Seller
shall pay a portion of the cost to repair the damage caused by the casualty
equal to the lesser of the Casualty Amount or the uninsured portion of the cost
of repair (including any deductible amount required to be paid under any
applicable casualty insurance policy) and, (z) pending Closing, Seller shall not
adjust or settle such matters with the insurance carriers without the consent of
Buyer, or (ii) promptly proceed to repair the Property to substantially the same
condition that existed prior to the Casualty, at Seller's sole expense, and, at
Buyer's option, either (A) the Closing Date shall be extended for a period equal
to the time reasonably required to effect such repairs, or (B) the Closing shall
occur and Seller shall complete the repairs following the Closing.
10.3 CONDEMNATION. In the event of commencement of a condemnation
proceeding, this Agreement may be terminated by Buyer if such condemnation may
adversely affect the use of, or access to, the Property. Buyer's option to
terminate this Agreement as a consequence of condemnation must be exercised by
delivery of written notice within ten (10) Business Days following the date
Buyer first receives written notice of the condemnation. If Buyer timely
terminates this Agreement by reason of condemnation, Buyer shall receive a
refund of all deposits made by Buyer to Escrow Agent. If Buyer does not
terminate this Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall complete the Closing in
accordance with this Agreement and all rights to condemnation proceeds otherwise
payable to Seller on account of such condemnation shall be assigned to Buyer at
Closing, and, pending Closing, Seller shall not settle such matters with the
condemnor without the consent of Buyer.

11. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
IF BUYER FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY AND SUCH FAILURE
CONSTITUTES A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEN SELLER SHALL BE RELEASED
FROM SELLER'S OBLIGATIONS TO SELL THE PROPERTY TO BUYER AND, BY PLACING
THEIR INITIALS BELOW, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF ONE
MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) SHALL CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO
SELLER FOR ANY SUCH BREACH BY BUYER. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT SAID
AMOUNT IS A REASONABLE AMOUNT FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR SUCH A BREACH
UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AT THE TIME THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED
INTO AND CONSTITUTES A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES TO SELLER
PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1671, ET SEQ. BUYER AND SELLER
AGREE THAT PREDICTING WHAT MONETARY DAMAGES SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN SUCH
AN EVENT IS IMPOSSIBLE OR IMPRACTICAL. SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE NOT A
PENALTY BUT RATHER A LIMITATION OF THE MONETARY DAMAGES FOR WHICH BUYER
MIGHT BE LIABLE HEREUNDER. FORTHWITH UPON ANY SUCH BREACH BY BUYER,
BUYER SHALL EITHER (1) PAY SUCH SUM TO SELLER, OR (2) INSTRUCT ESCROW TO
DELIVER SUCH SUM TO SELLER FROM ANY DEPOSITS DELIVERED TO ESCROW BY
BUYER; HOWEVER, IF ANY DEPOSITS HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN RELEASED BY ESCROW
TO SELLER, THE AMOUNT RELEASED TO SELLER SHALL BE RETAINED BY SELLER AND
CREDITED AGAINST THE AMOUNT OF LIQUIDATED DAMAGES OWED BY BUYER. IN
CONSIDERATION OF THE PAYMENT OF LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, SELLER HEREBY WAIVES
ALL OTHER CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES OR RELIEF AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, INCLUDING
ANY RIGHT TO SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE PURSUANT TO SECTION 1680 OR SECTION
3389 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE
CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH, IF BUYER BRINGS AN ACTION
("BUYER'S ACTION") AGAINST SELLER FOR AN ALLEGED BREACH OR DEFAULT BY
SELLER OF SELLER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND, IN CONNECTION
WITH BUYER'S ACTION, BUYER RECORDS A LIS PENDENS, SELLER SHALL NOT BE
RESTRICTED BY THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH FROM SEEKING EXPUNGEMENT
OR RELIEF FROM THAT LIS PENDENS AND RECOVERING DAMAGES, COSTS, OR
EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEY'S FEES) TO WHICH SELLER IS OTHERWISE
ENTITLED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW (INCLUDING RECOVERY AGAINST ANY
UNDERTAKING GIVEN BY BUYER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE SECTION 405.34), AND THE AMOUNT OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES AWARDED TO
SELLER SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SET FORTH HEREIN.

12. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
12.1 TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is hereby expressly declared to be
of the essence of this Agreement.
12.2 NO WAIVER. Any failure to insist upon strict performance of any
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute or be deemed
to be a waiver of any such term or provision, or constitute an amendment or
waiver of any such term or provision by course of performance, and each party,
notwithstanding any failure to insist upon strict performance, shall have the
right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance of any and all of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement.
12.3 SURVIVAL OF TERMS. All of the agreements, representations,
warranties and obligations of the parties set forth in this Agreement shall
survive the Closing and the conveyance of the Property to Buyer, and shall
continue thereafter to be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto, and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns.
12.4 BROKERAGE. Seller and Buyer represent that, with the exception
of Xxxxx & Xxxxx/ATTN: Mr. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx ("SELLER'S BROKER"), whom Seller shall
be solely responsible for compensating at Closing, no brokers are involved in
the transaction described in this Agreement and that no brokerage commissions or
finder's fees are or will be payable hereunder. If any claim is made by any
third party for the payment of any commission or fee, then the party whose acts
gave rise (or are alleged to have given rise) to such claim shall indemnify,
defend and save harmless the other party for the full amount of such claim and
all other claims, demands, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including reasonably attorneys fees) filed against or incurred by such
other party as a result of such claim. If Buyer timely and fully performs
Buyer's obligations and the Closing occurs as provided in this Agreement, then
at the Closing, Seller shall pay to Seller's Broker a commission pursuant to a
separate written agreement between Seller and Seller's Broker. The parties agree
that the foregoing obligations of indemnification shall survive the Closing or
the expiration or termination of this Agreement, however caused.
12.5 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California. Each party
hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California for

The exclusive venue for all actions arising hereunder or in connection with this
Agreement shall be the Superior Court in and for the County of Los Angeles,
California.
12.6 ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event an action is commenced by either
party to enforce or interpret this Agreement, then the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorneys' fees in addition
to any other relief that may be awarded in such action. Any such attorneys' fees
and other expenses incurred by either party in enforcing a judgment in its favor
under this Agreement shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to any
other amount included in such judgment, and such attorneys' fees obligation is
intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to
survive and not be merged into any such judgment. Notwithstanding any provisions
of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of the parties under this
Section 12.6 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement and
the Closing.
12.7 INTERPRETATION OF AGREEMENT. The parties acknowledge that both
parties have caused this Agreement to be reviewed and approved by legal counsel

Effective Date by the party sought to be charged by such modification or
amendment.
12.9 PARTIAL INVALIDITY. If any provision hereof is held invalid or
not enforceable to its fullest extent, such provision shall be enforced to the
extent permitted by law, and the validity of the remaining provisions hereof
shall not be affected thereby.
12.10 NOMINEE/ASSIGNEE OF BUYER. Buyer shall have the right to assign
all of Buyer's rights and delegate all of Buyer's duties under this Agreement to
any Affiliate (as hereinafter defined) of Buyer, whereupon such assignee or
assignees shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, (a) Seller shall not be required to bear any additional cost
and expense or incur any additional liability or obligation or otherwise suffer
any adverse effect as a consequence of such assignment in excess of the costs,
expenses, liabilities, obligations and other effects that would have been
applicable if the Property were acquired by Buyer, and (b) any such assignment
shall not relieve Buyer of any obligations under this Agreement. As used herein,
the term "AFFILIATE" shall mean: (1) an entity that controls, is controlled by,
or is under common control with Buyer; (2) any partnership in which Buyer or
Buyer's controlling member is the general partner; (3) any fund or entity
sponsored by Buyer; or (4) any entity that retains Buyer or any entity
affiliated with Buyer to manage the Property.

cooperating party shall not be required to pay any additional expenses or assume
any additional liability thereby, and provided further that such exchange shall
not delay the closing of the purchase and sale of the Property hereunder (other
than any delay occasioned by Seller's election to extend the Closing Date as
expressly contemplated by Section 1.5, above).

herein are inserted only for convenience and reference and shall in no way
define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this
Agreement.

respective right to trial by jury of any cause of action, claim, counterclaim or
cross-complaint in any action, proceeding and/or hearing brought by either
Seller against Buyer or Buyer against Seller on any matter whatsoever arising

or any claim of injury or damage or the enforcement of any remedy under law,
statute or regulation, emergency or otherwise, now or hereafter in effect.
