Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Article II hereof (herein referred to
collectively as the "Permitted Exceptions").
I.4 Purchase Price. Seller is to sell and Purchaser is to purchase the Property

bank account designated by Seller in writing, together with wire transfer

I.6 Xxxxxxx Money.
(a) Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement,

Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, X.X. 00000 Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, the sum of
One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (the "Xxxxxxx Money")
in good funds, either by certified bank or cashier's check or by
federal wire transfer. Purchaser shall provide Purchaser's federal
tax identification number to Escrow Agent concurrently with the
making of such deposit. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Xxxxxxx
Money in an interest-bearing account in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. All interest accruing on such sum
shall become a part of the Xxxxxxx Money and shall be distributed as
Xxxxxxx Money in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

receipt of a party's written demand for the Xxxxxxx Money, the
Escrow Agent shall promptly mail a copy of such demand to the other
party, who shall then have five (5) days to dispute the disbursement
by sending written notice of such objection to the Escrow Agent. In
the event of any dispute between Seller and Purchaser regarding the

Agent shall withhold disbursement of the Xxxxxxx Money until such
dispute is resolved. Alternatively, the Escrow Agent shall be
entitled to deposit the Xxxxxxx Money into a court of general
jurisdiction in the District of Columbia or the United States
District Court for the District of Columbia, and to interplead
Seller and Purchaser in connection therewith. The costs of any such
action for interpleader shall be paid by whichever of Seller or
Purchaser is the losing party. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable
for any damage, liability or loss arising out of its services
pursuant to this Agreement, except for damage, liability or loss
resulting from the willful or negligent conduct of the Escrow Agent
or any of its officers or employees.
I.7 Independent Contract Consideration. In addition to the Xxxxxxx Money,
Purchaser shall, concurrently with its execution hereof, deliver to Seller a
check in the amount of ONE HUNDRED AND NO/100ths DOLLARS ($100.00), which amount
Seller and Purchaser agree has been bargained for as consideration for Seller's
execution and delivery of this Agreement and Purchaser's right to inspect the
Property pursuant to Article III. Such sum is in addition to and independent of
any other consideration or payment provided for in this Agreement and is
nonrefundable in all events.
65535RT65535CLE IITITLE AND SURVEY
II.1 Title Examination; Commitment for Title Insurance. Seller has obtained and
delivered to Purchaser at no cost to Purchaser and the surveyor preparing the
Survey, from Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company (the "Title Company"), a
current ALTA title insurance commitment No. 99-1135 (the "Title Commitment")
covering the Property and a copy of each document referenced in the Title
Commitment as an exception to title to the Property. Purchaser shall have until
June 21, 1999 (the "Title Exam Deadline"), to review the Title Commitment
(regardless if such date occurs prior to the Effective Date). At Closing, at
Purchaser's expense, Purchaser shall obtain from the Title Company an Owner's
Policy of Title Insurance in the full amount of the Purchase Price pursuant to
Section 2.4 hereof.
II.2 Survey. Seller has obtained and delivered to Purchaser and the Title
Company at no cost to Purchaser a current ALTA survey of the Property prepared
by Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx Civil Engineers (the "Survey") reflecting the total area
of the Property, the location of all improvements, recorded easements and
encroachments, if any, located thereon and other matters of record with respect
thereto. Purchaser shall pay any costs associated with any changes to the Survey
(or certifications thereon or updates thereto) requested by Purchaser.
II.3 Title Objections; Cure of Title Objections.
(a) Purchaser shall have until the Title Exam Deadline to notify Seller,
in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything
contained in the Title
4
Commitment or the Survey. (Seller shall use good faith efforts, but
without any cost or liability to Seller, to remove or cure title
objections raised by Purchaser as to matters set forth on the Title
Commitment.) Any item contained in the Title Commitment or any
matter shown on the Survey to which Purchaser does not object prior
to the Title Exam Deadline shall be deemed a Permitted Exception. In
the event Purchaser shall notify Seller of objections to title or to
matters shown on the Survey prior to the Title Exam Deadline, Seller
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such
objections; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated, at
its sole cost and expense, to take such actions as may be necessary
to cause the Title Company to delete as an exception, by payment or
other appropriate measure of satisfaction, any mechanic's lien, IRS
payment lien, judgment lien or deed of trust or other financing lien
created prior to Closing by any action or inaction of Seller, which
liens shall be deemed to be excluded from the term "Permitted
Exceptions."
(b) Within ten (10) days after receipt of Purchaser's notice of
objections, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing whether Seller
elects to attempt to cure such objections. If Seller fails to give
Purchaser such notice of election, then Seller shall be deemed to
have elected not to attempt to cure the matter. If Seller elects to
attempt to cure, and provided that Purchaser shall not have
terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof,
Seller shall have until the date of Closing to attempt to remove,
satisfy or cure the same and for this purpose Seller shall be
entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing if additional
time is required, but in no event shall the adjournment exceed
thirty (30) days after the date for Closing set forth in Section 4.1
hereof. If Seller elects not to cure any objections specified in
Purchaser's notice, or if Seller is unable to effect a cure prior to
the Closing (or any date to which the Closing has been adjourned),
Purchaser shall have the following options: (i) to accept a
conveyance of the Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions,
specifically including any matter objected to by Purchaser which
Seller is unwilling or unable to cure, and without reduction of the
Purchase Price; or (ii) to terminate this Agreement by sending
written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice
of termination, this Agreement shall terminate and the Xxxxxxx Money
shall be returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto
shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder
except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set
forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. If
Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller does not intend to attempt to
cure any title objection or objections, or if, having commenced
attempts to cure any objection or objections, Seller later notifies
Purchaser that Seller will be unable to effect a cure thereof,
Purchaser shall, within ten (10) days after such notice has been
given, notify Seller in writing whether Purchaser shall elect to
accept the
5
conveyance under clause (i) or to terminate this Agreement under
clause (ii). In the event Purchaser does not so timely notify Seller
within such 10-day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have
elected to terminate this Agreement under clause (ii).
II.4 Conveyance of Title. As a condition of Closing, Seller shall convey and
transfer to Purchaser, and the Title Company shall insure by a standard 1970-B
ALTA Owner's Policy of Title Insurance (or its equivalent) (the "Title Policy"),
at Purchaser's sole cost, good and marketable title to the Property (as defined
in such Title Policy), in the full amount of the Purchase Price (at such rates
as Purchaser may negotiate with the Title Company), in the name of Purchaser or
Purchaser's designee, and with such endorsements as Purchaser shall reasonably
require and which the Title Company shall agree to issue to Purchaser prior to
the Title Exam Deadline (all of which shall be at Purchaser's sole expense).
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Property shall be
conveyed subject only to the following matters, which shall be deemed to be
Permitted Exceptions:
(1) the rights of Tenants, as tenants only, under the Leases and any new
Leases entered into between the Effective Date and Closing and, where
required, approved by Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement;
(2) the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not yet
due and payable as of the date of Closing, subject to adjustment as herein
provided;
(3) local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental regulations,
including but not limited to, building and zoning laws, ordinances and
regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Property; and
(4) items as shown on the Title Commitment or the Survey which are not
objected to by Purchaser or which are waived by Purchaser in accordance
with Sections 2.3 or 2.5 hereof.
II.5 Pre-Closing "Gap" Title Defects. Whether or not Purchaser shall have
furnished to Seller any notice of title objections pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2, Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing, notify
Seller in writing of any objections to title first raised by the Title Company
or the Surveyor between (a) the date which is the earlier of (i) the effective
date of Purchaser's Title Commitment referred to above or (ii) the expiration of
the Inspection Period, and (b) the date on which the transaction contemplated
herein is scheduled to close. With respect to any objections to title set forth
in such notice, Seller shall have the same option to cure and Purchaser shall
have the same option to accept title subject to such matters or to terminate
this Agreement as those which apply to any notice of objections made by
Purchaser before the expiration of the Inspection Period. If Seller elects to
attempt to cure any such matters, the date for Closing shall be automatically
extended by a reasonable additional time to effect such a cure, but in no event
shall the extension exceed thirty (30) days after the date for Closing set forth
in
6
Section 4.1 hereof.
65535RT65535CLE IIIINSPECTION PERIOD
III.1 Right of Inspection.
(a) During the period beginning upon the Effective Date and ending at
5:00 p.m. Eastern time on June 30, 1999, with time being of the
essence thereto (such period hereinafter referred to as the
"Inspection Period"), Purchaser shall have the right to make a
physical inspection of the Property and to examine at such place or
places at the Property, in the offices of the property manager or
elsewhere as the same may be located, any operating files maintained
by Seller or its property manager in connection with the leasing,
maintenance and/or management of the Property, including, without
limitation, the Leases, lease files, Operating Agreements, insurance
policies, bills, invoices, receipts and other general records
relating to the income and expenses of the Property, correspondence,
surveys, plans and specifications, warranties for services and
materials provided to the Property, environmental audits and similar
materials, but excluding materials not directly related to the
leasing, maintenance and/or management of the Property such as,
without limitation, Seller's internal memoranda, financial
projections, budgets, appraisals, accounting and tax records and
similar proprietary, elective or confidential information. Purchaser
understands and agrees that any on-site inspections of the Property
shall be conducted upon at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior
written notice to Seller and in the presence of Seller or its
representative. Such physical inspection shall not unreasonably
interfere with the use of the Property by Seller or its tenants nor
shall Purchaser's inspection damage the Property in any respect.
Such physical inspection shall not be invasive in any respect
(unless Purchaser obtains Seller's prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and in any
event shall be conducted in accordance with standards customarily
employed in the industry and in compliance with all governmental
laws, rules and regulations. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may
request the right to conduct certain customary invasive tests with
respect to testing the environmental condition of the Property.
During the Inspection Period and at all times prior to Closing,
Purchaser, its agents and contractors, shall have reasonable access
to the Property and other information pertaining thereto in the
possession or within the control of Seller or its property manager
for the purpose of performing such studies, tests, borings,
investigations and inspections as Purchaser shall deem necessary or
desirable (it being understood that physical testing shall require
Seller's prior written approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). Following each entry by Purchaser
with respect to inspections and/or tests on the Property, Purchaser
shall restore the Property to a condition which is as near to its
original condition as existed prior to any such inspections and/or
tests. Except as
7
specifically set forth in Section 5.3, Purchaser's right of
inspection and the exercise of such right shall not constitute a
waiver by Purchaser of a breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement of Seller which might, or should, have been
disclosed by such inspection.
(b) Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in Purchaser's due diligence
but Seller shall not be obligated to incur any liability or expense
in connection therewith. Purchaser shall not contact any tenants of
the Property or any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities
without obtaining Seller's prior written consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and Purchaser and
its agents shall not disrupt Seller's or Seller's tenants'
activities on the Property. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser shall
require contact with such parties prior to the expiration of the
Inspection Period in order to complete its due diligence. Purchaser
agrees to indemnify against and hold Seller harmless from any claim
for liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees actually incurred by Seller or Seller's agents or management
company), damages or injuries to the extent arising out of, or
resulting from any acts or omissions of Purchaser or Purchaser's
agents in connection with the inspection of the Property by
Purchaser or its agents (but the foregoing indemnity shall not apply
to any claims arising out of, or resulting from, the discovery by
Purchaser of any existing environmental conditions or matters).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
Purchaser's obligation to indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless
shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. All
inspections shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller
and Purchaser.
III.2 Right of Termination. Seller agrees that in the event Purchaser determines
(such determination to be made in Purchaser's sole discretion) that the Property
is not suitable for its purposes, or for any reason or for no reason, Purchaser
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice
thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period. If Purchaser
or Purchaser's attorneys shall give or fail to give such notice of termination
prior to expiration of the Inspection Period, then this Agreement shall
terminate and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser. Time is of the
essence with respect to the provisions of this Section 3.2.
65535RT65535CLE IVCLOSING
IV.1 Time and Place. The consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby
("Closing") shall be held at the offices of Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx, 1201 New York
Avenue, N.W., Penthouse, Washington, D.C., at 10:30 a.m. on July 15, 1999, or
such earlier date to which Seller and Purchaser may agree. At Closing, Seller
and Purchaser shall perform the obligations set forth in, respectively, Section
4.2 and Section 4.3, the performance of which obligations shall be concurrent
conditions. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.1 to the contrary, the
parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to pre-close the
transaction contemplated hereby
8
(i.e., sign documents into escrow) on the business day immediately preceding the
then-scheduled date of Closing.
IV.2 Seller's Obligations at Closing. At Closing, Seller shall:
(1) deliver to Purchaser a duly executed special warranty deed with a
covenant of further assurances in recordable form (the "Deed"), conveying
the Land and Improvements, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions;
(2) deliver to Purchaser a duly executed xxxx of sale conveying the
Personal Property without warranty of title or use and without warranty,
expressed or implied, as to merchantability and fitness for any purpose;
(3) deliver to Purchaser all original Leases and Lease files (or complete
copies of such Leases or other documents where such documents are not in
Seller's, Lend Lease's (as defined below) or Seller's management company's
possession) and assign to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall assume from and
after Closing, the landlord/lessor interest in and to the Leases by duly
executed assignment and assumption agreement in the form attached to this
agreement as Exhibit F;
(4) deliver to Purchaser all original Operating Agreements as well as all
other documents referred to herein (or complete copies of such Operating
Agreements or other documents where such documents are not in Seller's or
Seller's management company's possession) and to the extent assignable,
assign to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall assume from and after Closing,
Seller's interest in the Operating Agreements and the other Intangibles by
duly executed assignment and assumption agreement;
(5) deliver to Purchaser all original Tenant Estoppels (as such term is
defined in Section 5.4(b) hereof) as are in Seller's possession.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in
no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for, or deemed to be in
default hereunder by reason of, its failure to obtain any Tenant Estoppel
which Seller is required to deliver to Purchaser pursuant to Section
5.4(b) (it being understood, however, that such failure shall constitute a
non-fulfillment of a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to
close hereunder and Purchaser's remedies shall be as set forth in this
Agreement);
(6) join with Purchaser to execute (i) a notice in form and content
reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller which Purchaser shall send
to each tenant under each of the Leases (A) informing such tenant of the
sale of the Property and of the assignment to Purchaser of Seller's
interest in, and obligations under, the Leases (including, if applicable
any security deposits) effective from and after the Closing, and (B)
directing that all rent and other sums payable after the Closing under
each such Lease shall be paid as set forth in the notice, and (ii) a
notice in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller
which Purchaser shall send to each vendor under each of the
9
Operating Agreements in effect at Closing informing such vendor of the
sale of the Property and of the assignment to Purchaser of Seller's
interest in, and obligations under, the Operating Agreements and directing
that all sums payable after the Closing under each such Operating
Agreement shall be paid as set forth in the notice;
(7) deliver to Purchaser a certificate, dated as of the date of Closing
and executed on behalf of Seller by a duly authorized officer thereof,
stating that the representations and warranties of Seller contained in
Section 5.1 hereof are true and correct in all material respects as of the
date of Closing (with appropriate modifications of those representations
and warranties made in Section 5.1 hereof to reflect any changes therein
including without limitation any changes resulting from actions under
Section 5.4 hereof) or identifying any representation or warranty which is
not, or no longer is, true and correct and explaining the state of facts
giving rise to the change. In no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser
for, or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of, any breach of
representation or warranty which results from any change that (i) occurs
between the Effective Date and the date of Closing and (ii) is (A)
expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement or (B) beyond the
reasonable control of Seller to prevent; provided, however, that the
occurrence of a change which is not expressly permitted in this Agreement
shall constitute a non-fulfilment of a condition precedent to Purchaser's
obligations to close under this Agreement, and Purchaser's remedies shall
be as set forth in this Agreement. If, despite changes or other matters
described in such certificate, Purchaser proceeds to the Closing and the
Closing occurs, then Seller's representations and warranties set forth in
this Agreement shall be deemed to have been modified by all statements
made in such certificate;
(8) deliver to Purchaser such evidence as Purchaser's counsel and/or the
Title Company may reasonably require as to the authority of the person or
persons executing documents on behalf of Seller;
(9) deliver to Purchaser an affidavit duly executed by Seller stating that
Seller is not a "foreign person" as defined in the Federal Foreign
Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 and the 1984 Tax Reform Act;
(10) deliver to Purchaser the Leases, Operating Agreements, Environmental
Documents (as defined below) and licenses and permits, if any, in the
possession of Seller or Seller's agents, together with all leasing and
property files and records in connection with the continued operation,
leasing and maintenance of the Property, to the extent not previously
delivered to Purchaser. Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller for a period
of seven (7) years after Closing in case of Seller's need in response to
any tax audit, tax return preparation or litigation threatened or brought
against Seller, by allowing Seller and its agents or representatives
access, upon reasonable advance notice (which notice shall identify the
nature of the information sought by Seller), and at reasonable times to
examine and make copies of any and all instruments, files and records
related to the
10
period of Seller's ownership of the Property and which Seller has
delivered to Purchaser at Closing, which right shall survive the Closing;
(11) deliver to Purchaser possession and occupancy of the Property,
subject to the Permitted Exceptions;
(12) deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to
consummate the transaction expressly contemplated by this Agreement, which
additional documents may include transfer and recordation tax declarations
and other tax certificates; and
(13) deliver an affidavit (and such other documents or instruments
reasonably required by the Title Company) executed by Seller (and in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Seller's counsel) (i)
certifying against any work done or supplies delivered to the Property
which might be grounds for a materialman's or mechanic's lien under or
pursuant to applicable law, in form sufficient to enable the Title Company
to delete any exception to any such lien, and (ii) which the Title Company
may require to eliminate the pre-printed standard exceptions in the Title
Policy;
(14) deliver such transfer and other tax declarations and returns and
information returns, duly executed and sworn to by Seller as may be
required of Seller by law in connection with the conveyance of the
Property to Purchaser (including, but not limited to, Internal Revenue

adjustments and prorations;
(16) deliver an updated Schedule 4.4(b)(8) (delinquent rents);
(17) deliver an updated Schedule 5.1(s) (Rent Roll);
(18) deliver to Purchaser any letters of credit given by Tenants as
Security Deposits, and if requested by Purchaser, Seller shall execute
such transfer instruments in form and substance as may be required by the
issuer of such letters of credit in connection with the transfer of such
letters of credit to Purchaser; and
(19) such other documents as are required under this Agreement to be
delivered by Seller at Closing.
IV.3 Purchaser's Obligations at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall:
(1) pay to Seller the full amount of the Purchase Price, as increased or
decreased by prorations and adjustments as herein provided, in immediately
available wire transferred federal funds pursuant to Section 1.5 above, it
being agreed that at Closing the Xxxxxxx
11
Money shall be delivered to Seller and applied towards payment of the
Purchase Price, and it being further understood that Seller shall receive
such proceeds at its bank account no later than 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on
the date of Closing, failing which the pro-rations shall be redetermined
to coincide with the date on which said funds are received prior to 3:00
p.m. Eastern time (time being of the essence with respect to this
subparagraph);
(2) join Seller in execution of the instruments described in Sections
4.2(c), 4.2(d), and 4.2(f) above;
(3) deliver to Seller a letter duly executed by Purchaser, confirming that
Purchaser is not acquiring the Property with the assets of an employee
benefit plan as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income

to make such a representation, then Purchaser shall be deemed to be in
default hereunder, and Seller shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement and to receive and retain the Xxxxxxx Money;
(4) deliver to Seller such evidence as Seller's counsel and/or the Title
Company may reasonably require as to the authority of the person or
persons executing documents on behalf of Purchaser; and
(5) deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to
consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
IV.4 Credits and Prorations.
(1) The following shall be apportioned with respect to the Property as of
12:01 a.m., on the day of Closing, as if Purchaser were vested with title
to the Property during the entire day upon which Closing occurs:
(1) rents, if any, as and when collected (the term "rents" as used
in this Agreement includes all payments due and payable by
tenants under the Leases);
(2) taxes (including personal property taxes on the Personal
Property) and assessments levied against the Property;
(3) payments under the Operating Agreements;
(4) gas, electricity, water, sewer and other utility charges in
connection with the Property for which Seller is liable, if
any, such charges to be apportioned at Closing on the basis of
the most recent meter reading occurring prior to Closing (and
Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
utilities to read the meters as close as possible to the date
of Closing); and
12
(5) any other operating expenses or other items pertaining to the
Property which are customarily prorated between a purchaser
and a seller in the area in which the Property is located.
(2) Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing provisions:
(1) At Closing, Seller shall credit to the account of Purchaser
the amount of all cash security deposits held by Seller, $608
(which represents an additional security deposit for Belay &
Belay Investment, Inc.) and any interest on such security
deposits if and only to the extent required by the applicable
Lease.
(2) Any taxes paid at or prior to Closing shall be prorated based
upon the amounts actually paid. If taxes and assessments for
the current year have not been paid before Closing, Seller
shall be charged at Closing an amount equal to that portion of
such taxes and assessments (together with interest and
penalties thereon) which relates to the period before Closing
and Purchaser shall pay the taxes and assessments prior to
their becoming delinquent. Any such apportionment made with
respect to a tax year for which the tax rate or assessed
valuation, or both, have not yet been fixed shall be based
upon the tax rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed. To the
extent that the actual taxes and assessments for the current
year differ from the amount apportioned at Closing, the
parties shall make all necessary adjustments by appropriate
payments between themselves following Closing.
(3) Charges referred to in Section 4.4(a) above which have been
contracted for by a Tenant to a third party and are payable by
such Tenant directly to said third party shall not be
apportioned hereunder, and Purchaser shall accept title
subject to any of such charges unpaid and Purchaser shall look
solely to the tenant responsible therefor for the payment of
the same.
(4) Seller shall receive the entire advantage of any discounts for
the prepayment by it of any taxes, water rates or sewer rents.
(5) As to gas, electricity and other utility charges referred to
in Section 4.4(a)(iv) above, Seller may on notice to Purchaser
elect to pay one or more of all of said items accrued to the
date hereinabove fixed for apportionment directly to the
person or entity entitled thereto, and to the extent Seller so
elects, such item shall not be apportioned hereunder, and
Seller's obligation to pay such item directly in such case
shall survive the Closing.
(6) The Personal Property is included in this sale, without
further charge.
13
(7) If (i) Purchaser approves any new Lease, or the renewal or
extension of an existing Lease which is not provided for
thereunder, which approval includes an approval of the costs
to be incurred by the landlord on account thereof, or (ii) a
Tenant exercises, after the Effective Date, a renewal or
extension of an existing Lease pursuant to a right set forth
therein, which exercise requires the landlord to incur certain
costs on account thereof, then Purchaser shall be responsible
for such costs and Seller shall have no responsibility
therefor. If, as of the date of Closing, Seller shall have
paid any costs for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to
the foregoing sentence, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller
therefor at Closing. The provisions of this Section shall
survive the Closing.
(8) All moneys received from Tenants from and after the date of
Closing shall belong to Purchaser and shall be applied by
Purchaser to current rents and other charges under the Leases.
After application of such moneys to current rents and charges,
Purchaser agrees to remit to Seller any excess amounts paid by
a Tenant to the extent that such Tenant was in arrears in the
payment of rent prior to the Closing. Attached hereto as
Schedule 4.4(b)(8) is a schedule of delinquent rents as of the
Effective Date, which schedule shall be updated as of the date
of Closing.
(9) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a list of
additional rent, however characterized, under each Lease,
including without limitation, real estate taxes, electrical
charges, utility costs and operating expenses (collectively,
"Additional Rents") billed to Tenants for the calendar year in
which the Closing occurs (both on a monthly basis and in the
aggregate), the basis for which the monthly amounts are being
billed and the amounts incurred by Seller on account of the
components of Additional Rents for such calendar year. Upon
the reconciliation by Purchaser of the Additional Rents billed
to Tenants, and the amounts actually incurred for such
calendar year, Seller and Purchaser shall be liable for
overpayments of Additional Rents, and shall be entitled to
payments from Tenants, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis
based upon each party's period of ownership during such
calendar year. In addition, Seller has advised Purchaser that
Xxxxxx Brothers, Inc., is obligated to pay percentage rent in
accordance with its lease, and upon receipt by Purchaser of
any percentage rent which pertains to the period of time prior
to Closing, Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller its
proportionate share thereof.
(10) With respect to the ongoing tenant improvement work being
performed for Radio Free Europe, Seller shall provide to
Purchaser at Closing a credit in the amount of any sums
remaining to be paid by Seller pursuant to such
14
tenants' leases. With respect to the ongoing tenant
improvement work being performed for Xxxxxx X. Del Balzo,
Seller shall credit to Purchaser at Closing an amount equal to
120% of any sums outstanding for such work as of Closing, and
the unused portion of such credit shall be reimbursed to
Seller promptly after completion and acceptance by Xxxxxx X.
Del Balzo of the tenant improvement work for such tenant. The
amount of the credit due on account of such work shall be
based on a letter from the contractor setting forth the
amounts owed to it. The credit shall also include amounts due
for the construction management fee for such work. With
respect to Seller's obligations to such tenants for the
aforesaid tenant improvement work, Seller shall provide to
Purchaser at Closing such written documentation as Purchaser
may request for the purpose of establishing the amounts
remaining to be paid to such tenants in connection with such
work, Seller acknowledging that Purchaser is requesting the
estoppel from Radio Free Europe to set forth the amount still
due.
(3) Any errors in calculations or adjustments shall be corrected or
adjusted as soon as practicable after the Closing. The provisions of this
Section 4.4 shall survive Closing.
IV.5 Closing Costs. Seller shall pay: (a) the fees of any counsel representing
it in connection with this transaction; (b) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fee
which may be charged by the Escrow Agent or Title Company; (c) one-half (1/2) of
any transfer tax, recordation tax, grantor's tax, documentary stamp tax or
similar tax which becomes payable by reason of the transfer of the Property; (d)
the customary fees for recording the deed conveying the Property to Purchaser;
and (e) all costs incurred to repay or satisfy all liens as specifically
required by Section 2.3. Purchaser shall: (u) pay the fees of any counsel
representing Purchaser in connection with this transaction; (v) pay the premium
for the Title Policy to be issued to Purchaser by the Title Company at Closing;
(w) pay for the cost of changes to the Survey requested by Purchaser; (x) pay
one-half (1/2) of any transfer tax, recordation tax, grantor's tax, documentary
stamp tax or similar tax which becomes payable by reason of the transfer of the
Property; and (y) pay one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees charged by the Escrow
Agent or Title Company. All other costs and expenses incident to this
transaction and the closing thereof shall be paid by the party incurring such
costs and expenses. The provisions of this Section 4.5 shall survive the Closing
or any early termination of this Agreement.
IV.6 Conditions Precedent to Obligation of Purchaser. The obligation of
Purchaser to consummate the transaction hereunder shall be subject to the
fulfillment on or before the date of Closing of all of the following conditions,
any or all of which may be waived by Purchaser in its sole discretion:
(1) Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser all of the items required to
be delivered to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
including but not limited to, those
15
provided for in Section 4.2.
(2) All of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this
Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the
date of Closing.
(3) Seller shall have performed and observed, in all material respects,
all covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed and
observed by Seller as of and to the date of Closing.
(4) The Title Company shall be unconditionally prepared to issue to
Purchaser a Title Policy which meets the requirements of this Agreement.
(5) The Property shall be in substantially the same condition as exists as
of the last day of the Inspection Period, subject to (i) ordinary wear and
tear, and (ii) the provisions of Article VII, it being understood that
Seller shall not be required to replace any building systems or make any
capital improvements except as expressly required by this Agreement.
(f) Zuckerman, Spaeder, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx ("Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx")
shall have entered into a written and binding agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser identifying the expansion
space on the 5th floor which Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx will occupy, which space
shall be unoccupied and legally allowed to be occupied; such agreement
shall also provide for a renewal of the space currently occupied by
Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx on the 8th floor, and shall provide that the term of the
expansion space and the renewal space shall be coterminous with the term
of the balance of the space occupied by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx at the Property.
Purchaser shall have the right to reasonably approve the configuration of
the expansion space identified by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, and Purchaser shall
not be deemed to be unreasonable if the lineal footage along Connecticut
Avenue identified by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx is increased by more that 5% from
the space plan annexed hereto as Exhibit H. The remaining vacant space on
the fifth floor shall be reasonably capable of being separately demised
and leased in the ordinary course of business, shall be reasonably
appropriate for office use, and shall contain not less than 5,476 square
feet. Such agreement shall set forth Xxxxxxxxx Spaeder's agreement on its
rent and any tenant improvement allowances for the expansion space, and
the rent for the renewal space during the renewal term, and shall
specifically acknowledge that such agreement satisfies Xxxxxxxxx Spaeder's
expansions rights under its Lease. At Closing Purchaser shall receive a
credit from Seller towards the Purchase Price equal to the sum of (i),
(ii) and (iii):
(i) an amount equal to $6.32 multiplied by the number of square
feet remaining on the 5th floor following approval by
Purchaser of the expansion space on such floor to be occupied
by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, further multiplied by 5 (reflecting an
agreed upon assumed 5 year term);
16
plus
(ii) the sum of (A) with respect to the expansion space on the
fifth floor, the positive difference between $31.32 per square
foot of space to be leased by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and the per
square foot fixed rent to be paid by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx during
the first year of the expansion term, multiplied by the square
footage of such expansion space and further multiplied by the
annualized term of the expansion, plus (B) with respect to the
renewal space on ---- the eighth floor, the positive
difference between $31.32 per square foot of space to be
leased by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx on the eighth floor and the per
square foot fixed rent to be paid by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx during
the first year of the renewal term, multiplied by the square
footage of such renewal space and further multiplied by the
annualized term of the renewal; plus
(iii) the sum of the amount, if any, by which the tenant improvement
allowance (including any sprinklering costs) for Xxxxxxxxx
Spaeder's fifth floor space exceeds $20 per square foot,
multiplied by the square footage of such expansion space, plus
the amount, if any, by which the tenant improvement allowance
(including any sprinklering costs) for Xxxxxxxxx Spaeder's
eighth floor space exceeds $10 per square foot, multiplied by
the square footage of such renewal space. In the event that
the agreement with Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx requires that the
landlord under Xxxxxxxxx Spaeder's Lease is to perform the
tenant improvement work, then, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this clause (f)(iii), Purchaser and
Seller shall mutually agree upon an amount that is equal to
150% of the estimated cost of such tenant improvement work
(including a construction management fee), which amount shall
be held in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement mutually
satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller, and Purchaser shall not
be entitled to a credit pursuant to this clause (iii). The
cost of Xxxxxxxxx Spaeder's tenant improvement work shall be
paid from such escrow account, and any balance remaining after
the completion of such work shall promptly be paid to Seller.
The provisions of this Section 4.6(f) shall survive Closing
indefinitely.
In lieu of the expansion rights with respect to the fifth floor,
Seller agrees that if by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, July 2, 1999, Purchaser
advises Seller in writing that Purchaser will approve of Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
occupying a portion of the 3rd floor equal to the portion which would
otherwise be taken on the 5th floor, then if by Closing Seller delivers an
agreement from Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx satisfying all of the terms and
conditions set forth above but which provides for Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
occupying a portion of the 3rd floor rather than a portion of the 5th
floor, and the terms and conditions of such occupancy
17
provide for a fixed rent of $28.70 per square foot in the first year,
increasing 2% per year, a 5 year term, and tenant improvement concessions
not to exceed $20 per square foot, then Seller will credit Purchaser with
$302,175 on account of the credits described in (i) and (ii) above and the
credit on account of the tenant improvement allowance for the fifth floor
as described in (iii) above.
(6) Seller shall have paid the second half real estate brokerage
commissions payable with respect to the lease to Xxxxxx X. Del Balzo and
provided Purchaser with written evidence thereof.
(7) Radio Free Europe shall have either vacated the temporary space which
it is occupying pursuant to that certain letter dated March 16, 1999, or
agreed to vacate the temporary space within 15 days of the Closing, so
long as such agreement is confirmed in writing and a copy thereof is
provided to Purchaser.
(8) Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser a letter from the District of
Columbia Fire Department clarifying that there is only one (1) underground
storage tank at the Property.
(9) Seller shall have delivered or caused to be delivered to Purchaser a
reliance letter from Xxxxxx-Xxxxxx-Recon (for the Phase I Report (as
defined below)) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Purchaser.
(10) All Leases under which the Required Tenants (as defined below) lease
space shall be in full force and effect.

and payable in the manner provided for in this Agreement.

65535RT65535CLE VREPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
18
V.1 Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller hereby makes the following
representations and warranties to Purchaser:
(1) Organization and Authority. Seller has been duly organized and is
validly existing under the laws of New York. Seller has the full right and
authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to the provisions of
Section 10.6 hereof, to transfer all of the Property to be conveyed by
Seller pursuant hereto and to consummate or cause to be consummated the
transactions contemplated herein to be made by Seller. The person signing
this Agreement on behalf of Seller is authorized to do so. This Agreement,
when duly executed and delivered, will be the legal, valid and binding
obligation of Seller, enforceable in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The performance by Seller of its duties and obligations under
this Agreement and the documents and instruments to be executed and
delivered by it hereunder will not conflict with, or result in a breach
of, or default under, any provision of any of the organizational documents
of Seller or any agreements, instruments, decrees, judgments, injunctions,
orders, writs, laws, rules or regulations, or any determination or award
of any court or arbitrator, to which Seller is a party or by which its
assets are or may be bound.
(2) Pending Actions. To Seller's knowledge, there is no pending action,
suit, arbitration, unsatisfied order or judgment, governmental
investigation or proceeding against the Property or the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement (nor, to Seller's knowledge, has any such
matter been threatened in writing), which, if adversely determined, could
individually or in the aggregate have an effect on the Property or any
portion thereof or which could in any material way interfere with the
consummation by Seller of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
or which is not covered by insurance.
(3) Leases. Seller is the lessor or landlord or the successor lessor or
landlord under the Leases. Seller has delivered to Purchaser true, correct
and complete copies of all of the Leases and any guaranties thereof.
Except as set forth in the Lease Schedule, there are no other leases or
occupancy agreements affecting the Property. Except as otherwise set forth
in the Leases, to Seller's knowledge, no presently effective rent
concessions have been given to any tenants and no rent has been paid in
advance by any tenants respecting a period subsequent to the Closing. No
tenants have asserted in writing any claims, defenses or offsets to rent
accruing from and after the date of Closing. To Seller's knowledge, except
as disclosed to Purchaser in writing, no default, delinquency or breach
exists on the part of any tenant, and to Seller's knowledge, no condition
exists which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both,
will become a default. There are no defaults or breaches on the part of
Seller, as the landlord under any Lease. In the event that any Tenant
Estoppel delivered to Purchaser with respect to any Lease shall contain
any statement of fact, information or other matter which is inconsistent
with the matters stated in Seller's representations in this Section
5.1(c), the Tenant Estoppel shall control and Seller shall have no
liability for any claim based upon a breach of
19
representation regarding such statement of fact, information or other
matter contained in the Tenant Estoppel. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller does not represent or warrant
that any particular Lease will be in force or effect at Closing or that
the tenants under the Leases will have performed their obligations
thereunder. The termination of any Lease prior to Closing by reason of the
tenant's default shall not affect the obligations of Purchaser under this
Agreement in any manner or entitle Purchaser to an abatement of or credit
against the Purchase Price or give rise to any other claim on the part of
Purchaser, except that such event with respect to a Required Tenant shall
constitute a non-fulfillment of a condition precedent to Purchaser's
obligation to close hereunder and Purchaser's remedies shall be as set
forth in this Agreement.
(4) Lease Brokerage. There are no lease brokerage agreements, leasing
commission agreements or other agreements providing for payments of any
amounts for leasing activities or procuring tenants with respect to the
Property which will become due and payable from and after the date of
Closing other than as disclosed in Exhibit G attached hereto and made a
part hereof. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing,
Seller further represents that there are no existing agreements with
brokers concerning expansions or renewals of existing Leases, except for
the lease commissions payable to Xxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxx Real Estate
Services (and disclosed in Exhibit G), which lease commissions shall be
paid prior to Closing pursuant to Section 4.6(g). Seller shall indemnify
and hold harmless Purchaser from any claims arising from a breach of the
representation set forth in this Section 5.1(d). Seller shall use
reasonable efforts to obtain a letter from Xxxxxxx Xxxx Real Estate
Services that Purchaser shall have no liability to Xxxxxxx Xxxx for any
commissions or fees following the termination of its leasing agreement as
of Closing.
(5) No Violations. To Seller's knowledge, Seller has not received prior to
the Effective Date any written notification from any governmental or
public authority (i) that the Property is in violation of any applicable
fire, health, building, use, occupancy or zoning laws where such violation
remains outstanding and, if unaddressed, would have an adverse effect on
the Property as currently owned and operated or (ii) that any work is
required to be done upon or in connection with the Property, where such
work remains outstanding and, if unaddressed, would have an adverse effect
on the Property as currently owned and operated. In addition, to Seller's
knowledge, there are no violations, suits, investigations or judgments
relating to any violations of any laws, ordinances or regulations
affecting the Property (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws
(as hereinafter defined)), or any violations or conditions that may give
rise thereto, and to Seller's knowledge, no agency, board, bureau,
commission, department, office or body of any municipal, county, state or
federal governmental unit, or any subdivision thereof, having, asserting
or acquiring jurisdiction over all or any part of the Property or the
management, operation, use or improvement thereof (collectively, the
"Governmental Authorities") has notified Seller in writing that it
contemplates the issuance thereof, and
20
to Seller's knowledge, there are no outstanding orders, judgments,
injunctions, decrees, directives or writs of any Governmental Authorities
against or involving Seller or the Property.
(6) Taxes and Assessments. True and complete copies of the most recent
real estate tax bills for the Property received by Seller have been
delivered to Purchaser. Except as disclosed to Purchaser in writing,
Seller has not filed, and has not retained anyone to file, notices of
protests against, or to commence action to review, real property tax
assessments against the Property.
(7) Condemnation. To Seller's knowledge, Seller has not received any
written notice and, to Seller's knowledge, there are no (i) pending or
contemplated annexation or condemnation proceedings, or private purchase
in lieu thereof, affecting or which may affect the Property, or any part
thereof, (ii) proposed or pending proceedings to change or redefine the
zoning classification of all or any part of the Property, (iii) proposed
or pending special assessments affecting the Property or any portion
thereof, (iv) penalties or interest due with respect to real estate taxes
assessed against the Property and (v) proposed change(s) in any road or
grades with respect to the roads providing a means of ingress and egress
to the Property. Seller agrees to furnish Purchaser with a copy of any
such notice received by Seller within two (2) days after receipt.
(8) Insurance. To Seller's knowledge, Seller has not received any written
notice from any insurance company or board of fire underwriters of any
defects or inadequacies in or on the Property or any part or component
thereof that would materially and adversely affect the insurability of the
Property or cause any material increase in the premiums for insurance for
the Property that have not been cured or repaired or require any repairs
or work in or to the Property.
(9) Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in that certain Phase I
Environmental Report prepared by Xxxxxx-Xxxxxx-Recon and dated April 16,
1999 (as modified by that certain letter dated June 17, 1999), a copy of
which has been delivered to Purchaser (the "Phase I Report"), or as
otherwise disclosed to Purchaser in writing,

Authority (as defined in Section 5.8 below) has determined
that there are any violations of Environmental Law (as defined
in Section 5.8 below) with respect to the Property.

applicable Environmental Laws (as defined in Section 5.8).
(3) no portion of the Property has ever been used by Seller or, to
Seller's
21
knowledge, any current or former owner or Tenant to generate,
manufacture, refine, produce, treat, store, handle, dispose
of, transfer or process Hazardous Substances in violation of
any applicable Environmental Laws.
(4) there is no Operation and Maintenance Plan (the "O&M Plan")
with respect to any asbestos or asbestos-containing materials

required of the landlord under the Leases. To Seller's knowledge, all
work, alterations, improvements or installations required to be made for
or on behalf of all Tenants under the Leases have in all respects been
carried out, performed and complied with, and there is no agreement with
any Tenant for the performance of any work to be done in the future. To
Seller's knowledge, no work has been performed at the Building which would
require an amendment to the certificate of occupancy for the Improvements,
and any and all work performed at the Property to the date hereof and to
the Closing Date has been and will be in accordance with the rules, laws
and regulations of all applicable authorities. All bills and claims for
labor performed and materials furnished to or for the benefit of the
Property will be paid in full on the Closing Date.
(11) Agreements. There are no service contracts, union contracts,
employment agreements, leasing commission or brokerage agreements or other
agreements affecting the Property or the operation thereof, except the
Operating Agreements. All of the Operating Agreements are unmodified and
in full force and effect without any default or claim of default by any of
the parties thereto. All sums currently due and payable by Seller under
the Operating Agreements have been fully paid (or will be paid in the
ordinary course of business) and all sums which become due and payable
between the date hereof and the Closing Date shall be fully paid on the
Closing Date. All of the Operating Agreements (with the exception of the

days notice without the payment of any fee or penalty.
(12) Employee Contracts. There are no employees working at or in
connection with the Property who are employed by Seller, nor are there any

settlement, extension or composition to its creditors generally.
(14) Personal Property. The Personal Property listed on Exhibit B is now
owned and will on the Closing Date be owned by Seller free and clear of
any conditional bills of sale, chattel mortgages, security agreements or
financing statements or other security interests of any kind. Exhibit B is
a materially true, correct and complete listing of the Personal Property
which Seller has used in connection with the maintenance and operation of
the Property.
(15) Taxes. Seller has paid all Taxes (as defined herein) due and payable
prior to the Closing and filed all returns and reports required to be
filed prior to the Closing with respect to the ownership and operation of
the Property (by Seller or any predecessor entity) for which Purchaser

audits or other proceedings by any Governmental Authorities pending or, to
Seller's knowledge, threatened in writing with respect to the Taxes
resulting from the ownership and operation of the Property (by it or any
predecessor entities) for which Purchaser could be held liable or a claim
made against the acquired property. Seller is not party to, and has no
liability under (including liability with respect to a predecessor
entity), any indemnification, allocation or sharing agreement with respect
to Taxes. "Taxes" mean all federal, state, county, local, foreign and

interest, additions to tax or interest, and penalties with respect
thereto, and include expenses associated with contesting any proposed

Deposits held by Seller, as
23
landlord, under the Leases, which Security Deposits shall be held by
Seller in accordance with this Agreement and at Closing, shall be assigned
to Purchaser.
(18) No Misrepresentation. No material representation or warranty made by
Seller and contained in this Section, and no express statement contained

complete rent roll for the Property setting forth the following: (i) the
name of each Tenant; (ii) the fixed rent actually being collected; and

extent such Tenant Estoppel covers the matters set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence, such Tenant Estoppel shall control and the
immediately preceding sentence shall be of no further force or effect for

V.2 Knowledge Defined.
(a) References to the "knowledge" of Seller shall refer only to the
actual knowledge of the Designated Employee (as hereinafter defined)
of Lend Lease Real Estate Investments, Inc. ("Lend Lease"), the
manager of the Property for Seller, and shall not be construed (by
imputation or otherwise) to refer to the knowledge of Seller, Lend
Lease or any affiliate of either of them, to any property manager,
or to any other officer, agent, manager, representative or employee
of Seller or Lend Lease or any affiliate thereof or to impose upon
such Designated Employee any duty to investigate the matter to which
such actual knowledge, or the absence thereof, pertains; provided,
however, that the Designated Employee has contacted Xxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxx Lang LaSalle's (the property manager) representative at the
Property, and requested that Xx. Xxxxxx review Xxxxx Lang LaSalle's
files relating to the Property and the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 5.1, and Xx. Xxxxxx has advised the
Designated Employee that he has no actual knowledge of any fact or
circumstance which would cause any representation made to the
knowledge of Seller to be false. As used herein, the term
"Designated Employee" shall refer to Xxxxxxx X. Xxxx, Xx. Seller
represents and warrants that the Designated Employee is the person
currently in the employ of either Seller or Lend Lease who possesses
the knowledge with respect to the matters contained herein.
(b) References to the "knowledge" of Purchaser shall refer only to the

24
any of its affiliates, or to any officer, agent, manager,
representative or employee of Purchaser or any affiliate thereof, or
to impose upon Purchaser's Representative any duty to investigate
the matter to which such actual knowledge, or the absence thereof,

5.1, as updated by the certificate of Seller to be delivered to
Purchaser at Closing in accordance with Section 4.2(g) hereof, shall
survive Closing for a period of two hundred seventy (270) days. No
claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller shall
be actionable or payable (i) if the breach in question results from
or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter which was
known to Purchaser's Representative prior to Closing, (ii) unless
the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more
than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), in which event the full
amount of such claims shall be actionable, and (iii) unless written
notice containing a description of the specific nature of such
breach shall have been given by Purchaser to Seller prior to the
expiration of said 270-day period and an action shall have been
commenced by Purchaser against Seller within sixty (60) days after
the termination of the survival period provided for above in this
Section 5.3. Purchaser agrees to first seek recovery under any
insurance policies, service contracts and Leases prior to seeking
recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser if
Purchaser's claim is satisfied from such insurance policies, service
contracts or Leases.
(b) As used herein, the term "Cap" shall mean an amount, in total
aggregate, equal to $1,500,000. In no event shall Seller's aggregate
liability to Purchaser under this Agreement, for breach of any
representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement or the
certificate to be delivered by Seller at Closing pursuant to Section
4.2(g) hereof or otherwise, exceed the amount of the Cap. During the
foregoing 270-day period, the Value Enhancement Fund shall maintain
$1,500,000 of assets (net of liabilities) for the purpose of
satisfying any obligations under this Section 5.3. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Purchaser from and against all claims,
liabilities, losses, damages, penalties and costs (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) which Purchaser may
incur as a result of Seller's failure to pay third parties or
Seller's breach of any
25
obligation or agreement with the same, which indemnification shall
survive the Closing and shall not be subject to any monetary
limitations.
V.4 Covenants of Seller. Seller hereby covenants with Purchaser as follows:
(1) From the Effective Date hereof until the Closing or earlier
termination of this Agreement, Seller shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to operate and maintain the Property in a manner generally

Property prior to the date hereof. In addition, Seller shall use
reasonable efforts to preserve for Purchaser the relationships of Seller
with the Tenants, suppliers and others having on-going relationships with
the Property. Seller will complete any capital expenditure program
currently in process or anticipated to be completed. Seller will not defer
taking any actions or spending any of its funds, or otherwise manage the
Property differently, due to the pending sale of the Property
(2) Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts (but without
obligation to incur any cost or expense) to obtain and deliver to
Purchaser prior to Closing, a written estoppel certificate (each, a
"Tenant Estoppel" and collectively, the "Tenant Estoppels"), signed by

shall be in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto and made a part hereof
(or, alternatively, in the form, required by the applicable Lease); (ii)
shall be dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the
Closing; (iii) shall not contain any adverse statements (other than of a
de minimis nature) relating to the operation or condition of the Property
or assert a material default on the part of Seller; and (iv) shall state
that all rent due under such Tenant's Lease has been paid through the
month in which the Closing occurs. It shall be a condition to Closing and
to Purchaser's obligation to perform hereunder that Seller deliver to

existing Lease (except in connection with the exercise of a renewal or
expansion right provided in such Lease) or of any new Lease which Seller
wishes to execute between the Effective Date and the date of Closing,
Seller shall submit the relevant documentation to Purchaser for
Purchaser's approval. Prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period,
Purchaser agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its
consent to any proposed lease or amendment; and after the expiration of
the Inspection Period, Purchaser may grant or withhold its consent in its
sole discretion. In any event, Purchaser agrees to notify Seller in
writing within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof of either
its approval or disapproval thereof, as well as any costs to be incurred
by the landlord thereunder in connection therewith. In the event Purchaser
fails to notify Seller in writing of its approval or disapproval within
the five (5) day time period for such purpose set forth
26
above, such failure shall be deemed the disapproval by Purchaser. At
Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any costs paid by Seller on
account of such renewal, expansion or new Lease approved by Purchaser.
(4) If, prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have received from (i) any
insurance company which issued a policy with respect to the Property, (ii)
any board of fire underwriters or other body exercising similar functions,
or (iii) the holder of any mortgage, any notice requiring or recommending
any repair work to be done on the Property, Seller shall perform the same

Closing Date, but only so long as the cost thereof does not exceed $50,000
in the aggregate.
(5) Seller shall: (1) Promptly notify Purchaser of, and promptly deliver
to Purchaser, a copy of any Notice which Seller may receive, on or before
the date of Closing, from any Governmental Authority concerning a
violation of Environmental Laws or Discharge (as defined in Section 5.8
below) of Hazardous Substances; and (2) contemporaneously with the signing
and delivery of this Agreement, and subsequently, promptly upon receipt by
Seller or its representatives, deliver to Purchaser a true and complete

Accept the surrender of any Service Contract or Lease, or grant any
concession, rebate, allowance or free rent; (3) apply any Security
Deposits with respect to any Tenant in occupancy on the Closing Date; (4)
Renew, extend or modify any of the Operating Agreements without the prior
written consent of Purchaser; (5) Remove any Personal Property located in
or on the Property, except as may be required for repair and replacement.
All replacements shall be free and clear of liens and encumbrances and
shall be of quality at least equal to the replaced items and shall be
deemed included in this sale, without cost or expense to Purchaser; (6)
Cause or permit the Property, or any interest therein, to be alienated,
mortgaged, licensed, encumbered or otherwise be transferred; or (7) cause
or permit any new lien or encumbrance to be placed upon or against the

and expense, any lien or encumbrance which appears of record after the
date on which the Title Commitment was issued and is not shown on the
Title Commitment.
(7) Upon request of Purchaser at any time after the date hereof (but
without any cost or expense to Seller), Seller shall assist Purchaser in
its preparation of audited financial statements, statements of income and
expense, and such other documentation as Purchaser may reasonably request,
covering the period of Seller's ownership of the Property.
27
(8) Up to and including the Closing Date, Seller agrees to maintain and
keep such hazard, liability and casualty insurance policies in full force
and effect in such amounts and covering such risks sufficiently to protect
the Property and to protect, to a reasonable and prudent extent, the owner
of the Property, in such amounts as are required so as not to be deemed a
co-insurer, and for actual replacement cost, against any loss, damage,
claim or liability.
(9) Seller shall cancel, at its sole cost and expense, those Operating
Agreements which Purchaser elects not to assume and which can, by their
terms, be terminated prior to the Closing without the payment of any
termination or other penalties or charges of any type or nature.
(10) Seller shall permit Purchaser and its authorized representatives to
inspect the Books and Records of its operations concerning the Property at
all reasonable times and on reasonable advance notice. The foregoing shall
survive the Closing.

codes, directives or requirements affecting the Property, whether or not
such violations are now noted in the records of or have been issued by any
Governmental Authorities, shall be complied with by Seller prior to the
Closing and the Property shall be conveyed free of any such violations,
including, without limitation, violations of Environmental Laws, provided
that the aggregate cost to Seller of complying with the foregoing shall
not exceed $50,000. If the cost to cure said violations exceeds $50,000,
Purchaser shall have the right to either (i) terminate this Agreement and
receive a full refund of the Xxxxxxx Money or (ii) proceed to Closing, and
at such event Purchaser shall receive a $50,000 credit from Seller.
Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the event that
Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) above,
then Seller shall have the right to cure said violations by paying the
entire cost to cure said violation and Purchaser and Seller shall proceed
to Closing (and Purchaser's election to terminate this Agreement shall be
of no force or effect).

X.2 Public Disclosure. Prior to Closing, any release to the public of
information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set
forth in this Agreement will be made only in the form approved by Purchaser and
Seller and their respective counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing or any
early termination of this Agreement.
35
X.3 Discharge of Obligations. The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be
deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every representation and
warranty made by Seller herein and every agreement and obligation on the part of
Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except
those which are herein specifically stated to survive Closing.
X.4 Assignment. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without
first obtaining Seller's written approval, which approval may be given or
withheld in Seller's sole discretion; provided, however, that Purchaser may
assign this Agreement to an entity which is affiliated (i) with Purchaser or
(ii) with any entity under the common control of the entity controlling
Purchaser. In the event of an assignment by Purchaser to any such entity,
Purchaser shall advise Seller prior to the Closing. Under no circumstances shall
Purchaser have the right to assign this Agreement to any person or entity owned
or controlled by an employee benefit plan if Seller's sale of the Property to
such person or entity would, in the reasonable opinion of Seller's ERISA
advisor, create or otherwise cause a "prohibited transaction" under ERISA. In
the event Purchaser assigns this Agreement or transfers any ownership interest
in Purchaser, and such assignment or transfer would make the consummation of the
transaction hereunder a "prohibited transaction" under ERISA and necessitate the
termination of this Agreement then, notwithstanding any contrary provision which
may be contained herein, Seller shall have the right to pursue any remedy
available at law or in equity as a result of such assignment or transfer. Any
transfer, directly or indirectly, of any stock, partnership interest or other
ownership interest in Purchaser without Seller's written approval, which
approval may be given or withheld in Seller's sole discretion, shall constitute
a default by Purchaser under this Agreement.

(a) personal delivery, or (b) reputable overnight delivery service with proof of
delivery, or (c) United States Mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission sent to
the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other address

address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile
transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided that an
original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by means
described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Notices may be given by counsel for

advisor, Lend Lease, shall each have the right, in its unfettered discretion, to
disapprove the transaction contemplated by this Agreement for any reason
whatsoever, without obligation thereafter to proceed to the next stage of
Seller's investment approval process. Seller's approval of this Agreement shall
be evidenced only by both Seller's execution of this Agreement and Seller's
sending of the Approval Notice to Purchaser prior to the Approval Deadline and,
accordingly, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser cannot and will
not rely upon any other statement or action of Seller or its representatives as
evidence of Seller's approval of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof.
X.7 Modifications. This Agreement cannot be changed orally, and no executory
agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify or discharge it in whole
or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing and is signed by the

discharge is sought.

consideration execute and deliver such other documents and take such other

to any materials delivered by Seller to Purchaser with respect to the Property.
