If Purchaser fails to notify Seller of any such Purchaser's Title Objections and the reasons such objections are unacceptable to Purchaser, upon the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all exceptions to title and all other matters shown on the Title Commitment and all such exceptions and all other matters shown on the Title Commitment shall be included in the term "Permitted Encumbrances."  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall have no obligation to bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify Purchaser's Title Objections; provided, however, Seller shall be obligated to satisfy or discharge any monetary lien or encumbrance for a liquidated amount affecting the Property created by, through, or under Seller, except for the liens to be assumed by Purchaser as a part of the Purchase Price.  If Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate or modify or commit in writing to so eliminate or modify prior to Closing Purchaser's Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser, other than as set forth above, Purchaser may (as its sole and exclusive remedy) (i) terminate this Agreement by giving notice in writing to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, or (ii) accept such title as Seller can deliver without any reduction in Purchase Price, in which event, such uncured Purchaser's Title Objections shall be included in the term "Permitted Encumbrances."  If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement within the period described in the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all then uncured

3

exceptions to title and all such exceptions and matters shall be included in the term "Permitted Encumbrances."  In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 4.2, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 10.12 hereof.  The term "Permitted Encumbrances" as used herein includes: (i) any easement, right-of-way, encroachment, conflict, discrepancy, overlapping of improvements, protrusion, lien, encumbrance, restriction, condition, covenant or other matter with respect to the Property that is reflected or addressed on the Survey, Updated Survey, or the Title Commitment to which Purchaser fails to timely object pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of this Agreement, (ii) any of Purchaser's Survey Objections or Purchaser's Title Objections that remain uncured, other than set forth above, for whatever reason, at the Closing Date, and (iii) the rights of parties claiming under the Leases.

RISK OF LOSS

7.1Casualty.  

(a)If prior to the Closing Date there shall occur damage to any portion of the Land or Improvements caused by fire or other casualty of all or any portion of the Property which would cost $100,000.00 or less to repair or restore, as the case may be, the amount of such costs to be determined by a contractor regularly engaged in business in Clay County, Florida, chosen by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, then Purchaser shall have no right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement and this transaction shall close as contemplated and there shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing all right, title, and interest of Seller, in and to any insurance proceeds which may be payable to Seller on account of such occurrence (not including any proceeds payable on account of lost rents or income for the period prior to the Closing Date), and Purchaser shall take title to the

11

Property with the assignment of such proceeds and subject to such damage to or destruction of the Property without reduction in the Purchase Price, provided that Purchaser shall be given a credit towards the Purchase Price for the lesser of any deductible under Seller's insurance policy or the cost to repair or restore such damage or destruction.

(b)If prior to the Closing Date, there should occur damage to any portion of the Land or Improvements caused by fire or other casualty of all or any portion of the Property which would cost more than $100,000.00 to repair or restore, as the case may be, the amount of such costs to be determined by a contractor regularly engaged in business in Clay County, Florida, chosen by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, then Purchaser or Seller shall have, as their sole and exclusive remedies: (i) the option to terminate this Agreement within five (5) days following a determination of the cost to repair and the amount of insurance proceeds which are payable on account of such casualty (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the originally scheduled Closing Date as set forth in Section 6.1), in which event, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein, and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser subject to Purchaser's satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 10.12 of this Agreement, or (ii) if Purchaser or Seller does not elect to terminate, this transaction shall close as contemplated and there shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing all right, title and interest of Seller, in and to any insurance proceeds which may be payable to Seller on account of any such occurrence (not including any proceeds payable on account of lost rents or income for the period prior to the Closing Date), and Purchaser shall take title to the Property with the assignment of such proceeds and subject to such damage to or destruction of the Property without reduction of the Purchase Price; provided, however, Purchaser shall receive a credit towards the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible under Seller's insurance policy.  In no event shall Seller have any affirmative obligation to rebuild or repair the Property pursuant to this Section 7.1.  The provision of this Section 7.1 shall govern notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Florida Property Code, as amended.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust any insurance claim with Seller's insurance carriers after the Effective Date of this Agreement; provided that Seller shall adjust such claims in a commercially reasonable manner in order to attempt to obtain a reasonable payment of proceeds on the claim.

7.2Condemnation.  If prior to the Closing Date there shall occur the threatened taking or condemnation of any portion of the Property which is not material, then Purchaser shall have no right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement and this transaction shall close as contemplated and there shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing all right, title, and interest of Seller to any condemnation awards or proceeds and Purchaser shall take title to the Property with the assignment of such condemnation awards or proceeds and subject to such taking or condemnation without reduction of the Purchase Price.  If prior to the Closing Date there shall occur the threatened taking or condemnation of all or a material portion of the Property, then Seller or Purchaser shall have, as its sole and exclusive remedies: (i) the option to terminate this Agreement within five (5) days following notice in writing to the other of such threatened taking or condemnation and a determination from the condemning authority of the amount of condemnation proceeds to be offered for the proposed taking (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the originally scheduled Closing Date as set forth in Section 6.1), in which event, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein, and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser subject to Purchaser's satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 10.12 of this Agreement, or (ii) if Seller or Purchaser does not elect to terminate, this transaction shall close as contemplated and there shall be assigned to Purchaser at Closing all right, title and interest

12

of Seller to any condemnation awards or proceeds, and Purchaser shall take title to the Property with the assignment of such condemnation awards or proceeds and subject to such taking or condemnation without reduction of the Purchase Price.  As used in this Section 7.2, there shall occur the threatened taking or condemnation of a "material" portion of the Property if the area subject to the threatened taking or condemnation includes within its boundary any portion of the parking areas, the Improvements on the Land, or any means of ingress or egress to or from the Property or otherwise materially interferes with the operation of the Property.  In the event that any condemnation occurs prior to Closing, if Seller receives and retains any condemnation proceeds, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount (but not below zero).  

8.

DEFAULT

8.1Breach by Seller.  In the event that Seller shall breach any of its obligations hereunder or shall fail to consummate this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser's default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, and if Purchaser is not then in default hereunder and is ready, willing and able to consummate this transaction, then Purchaser shall have the right to pursue one, but not all of the following, as its sole and exclusive remedies: (i) the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money upon Purchaser's satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 10.12 of this Agreement, or (ii) by giving written notice to Seller within ninety (90) days after the scheduled Closing Date and filing a lawsuit within one hundred twenty (120) days after the scheduled Closing Date, the right to seek specific performance of Seller's obligations to sell the Property in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.  In the event Purchaser fails to give written notice to Seller within such 90-day period or file a lawsuit for specific performance within such 120-day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the remedy of termination of this Agreement.  If Purchaser enforces specific performance of Seller's obligations to sell the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement Purchaser agrees that it shall accept a special warranty deed to the Property subject to the Permitted Encumbrances.  In no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for any actual, punitive, exemplary, speculative, or consequential, or other damages.

8.2Breach by Purchaser.  In the event that Purchaser shall breach any of its obligations hereunder prior to Closing or shall fail to consummate this Agreement at Closing for any reason other than Seller's default or the termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the terms and provisions hereof, and if Seller is not then in default, then Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy for such pre-Closing breach, may terminate this Agreement and receive the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages.  The parties agree that Seller will suffer damages in the event of Purchaser's default on its pre-Closing obligations.  Although the amount of such damages are difficult or impossible to determine, the parties agree that the amount of the Xxxxxxx Money is a reasonable estimate of Seller's loss in the event of Purchaser's pre-Closing default.  Thus, Seller shall accept and retain the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages, but not as a penalty.  In the event Seller is entitled to the Xxxxxxx Money and the Xxxxxxx Money has not been previously distributed to Seller as liquidated damages, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately paid to Seller by the Title Company upon written receipt of notice from Seller that Purchaser has defaulted under this Agreement.  Purchaser agrees to take all such actions and execute and deliver all such documents necessary or appropriate to effect such payment of the Xxxxxxx Money to Seller.  Seller shall also be entitled to recover its damages and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs in seeking recovery of the Xxxxxxx Money if Purchaser fails to instruct the Title Company to disburse the Xxxxxxx Money to Seller when Seller is entitled to obtain disbursement of the Xxxxxxx Money pursuant to this Agreement.

13

8.3Actions by Purchaser.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained or implied elsewhere herein, in the event Purchaser (i) files a Lis Pendens or an action for specific performance against Seller or otherwise clouds Seller's title to the Property or any portion thereof and fails to prevail in a final, non-appealable judgment, or (ii) breaches Purchaser's agreements of indemnity contained in this Agreement, or (iii) breaches any of Purchaser's obligations that survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement, Seller shall be entitled to pursue any remedies available at law or in equity, including but not limited to, suit for damages from Purchaser (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred by Seller in connection therewith).

(c)Foreign Person.  Seller is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (i.e., Seller is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or estate as those terms are defined in such Internal Revenue Code and regulations promulgated thereunder).

15

As used in this Agreement, the phrase "Seller's knowledge," or words of like effect (i) shall mean and apply to the knowledge of Xxxx X. Xxxxx (the "Seller's Representative"), who is President of the management company managing the Property for Seller and directly involved in the negotiation of sale and purchase transaction described herein and not to any other parties, (ii) shall mean the current actual knowledge of such person, it being understood and acknowledged that (a) such person, in many instances, is not involved in the day-to-day operations of the Property and in many instances, is not involved in the negotiation or execution of the leases, management contracts, service contracts, or other agreements in question, and (b) such person is not charged with the knowledge of all of the acts and/or omissions of the predecessors in title to the Property or with knowledge of all of the acts and/or omissions of Seller's or Seller's property manager's agents or employees, and (iii) shall not apply to or be construed to apply to information or material which may be in the possession of Seller or Seller's property manager generally, or incidentally, but which is not actually known to Seller's Representative. As used herein, the term "current actual knowledge" of a party shall mean that no facts have come to the party's attention that would give the party actual knowledge that any such facts are not true, correct, and complete, and the party has no obligation to and has not undertaken no investigation, inquiry, or verification as to such matters to determine the existence or absence of such facts, and no inference of the party's knowledge of the existence or absence of such facts should be drawn from the statements made herein.  In no event shall Seller's Representative have any personal liability under this Agreement by reason of his acting as Seller's Representative hereunder.  In the event that either Seller or Purchaser should discover prior to the Closing that any representation made by Seller in this Agreement is untrue or inaccurate (herein referred to as a "Breach"), it shall promptly inform the other party in writing of its discovery and Purchaser shall have the right, as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy on account of such Breach by written notice delivered to Seller given upon the earlier to occur of the Closing Date or within ten (10) days after Purchaser becomes aware of the Breach to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money upon compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 10.12 hereof.  In the event that Purchaser fails to so terminate on or before the earlier to occur of the Closing Date or said ten (10) day period as aforesaid, Purchaser shall automatically be deemed to have waived any objection to such Breach and all rights or remedies against Seller on account of such Breach.  If Purchaser shall waive a Breach by failing to terminate this Agreement as provided above, such representation shall be deemed revised as of the Closing Date to the extent necessary to make the representation true and accurate.  Seller does not represent or warrant that there will be no change in any of the representations of Seller set forth in this Agreement prior to the Closing Date, however, it shall be a condition to Purchaser's obligation to consummate the transaction described in this Agreement that all representations made by Seller in this Agreement as of the Effective Date shall remain true and accurate in all material respects on the Closing Date.  Purchaser shall not have any right to bring any action against Seller for a Breach where Purchaser had knowledge of the Breach prior to Closing and failed to notify Seller of such fact prior to Closing.

9.4Representations of Purchaser.  Purchaser represents to Seller that:

(a)Authority.  The execution and delivery by Purchaser of and Purchaser's performance under, this Agreement, are within Purchaser's powers and have been duly authorized by all requisite action, and the person executing this instrument on behalf of Purchaser has authority to do so.
