shall be for a period expiring on the date that is ten (10) days following the

finder's fees, commissions or other similar fees in connection with the
transactions covered by this Agreement insofar as such claims shall be based
upon alleged arrangements or agreements made by such party or on its behalf.
ARTICLE XII
TERMINATION, DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
12.1 If this Agreement is terminated because of a failure of one or
more of the covenants, conditions or agreements contained in this Agreement, or
because of any specific right of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement,
including without limitation those termination rights contained in Article IV,
Article V, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX or Article XIII hereof
(hereinafter referred to as a "PERMITTED Termination"), the Xxxxxxx Money, and
all accrued interest thereon, shall be immediately returned to Purchaser,
whereupon neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder.
12.2 In the event that any of the Seller's representations or
warranties contained herein are untrue or if Seller shall have failed to have
performed any of the covenants and/or agreements contained herein which are to
be performed by Seller, Purchaser may, at its option and as its sole remedy
either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to
Seller and Escrow Agent and receive a full and immediate refund of any and all
Xxxxxxx Money and accrued
- 23 -
interest thereon; or (b) seek to enforce specific performance of this Agreement.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit Purchaser's remedies in the event of a
breach of any representation or warranty by Seller following the Closing.
12.3 If Purchaser fails to close the transaction contemplated hereby
for any reason other than a Permitted Termination, Seller shall be entitled to
receive the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages as Seller's sole and exclusive
remedy for such failure, Seller hereby specifically waiving any and all rights
which it may have to damages or specific performance as a result of Purchaser's
default under this Agreement. SELLER AND PURCHASER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE
IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER WOULD
SUFFER IF THE PURCHASE AND SALE CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT IS NOT
CONSUMMATED BY REASON OF PURCHASER'S FAILURE TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THE XXXXXXX MONEY
CONSTITUTES A FAIR AND REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL DETRIMENT WHICH SELLER
WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER.
ARTICLE XIII
RISK OF LOSS
Risk of all loss, destruction, or damage to the Property, or any portion
thereof, from any and all causes whatsoever until consummation of the Closing
shall be borne by Seller. In the event that any portion of the Improvements,
Personal Property, or the Land are damaged by fire or other casualty, or all or
any portion of the Land or Improvements is condemned or taken by eminent domain
by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or
preliminary steps in such condemnation for eminent domain proceedings shall have
been taken before the Closing Date, Seller shall give immediate notice thereof
to Purchaser. In the event that any such casualty or condemnation (or threat
thereof) does or could result in damages costing more than an amount equal to
five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price to repair or replace, or have an adverse
effect on the access to or use of the Property (a "Material Casualty or
Condemnation"), Purchaser, at its option, may terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Seller prior to or at the Closing, in which event the Xxxxxxx
Money shall be returned to Purchaser and, thereafter, neither Seller nor
Purchaser shall have any further duties or obligations hereunder. In the event
that (i) such casualty or condemnation (or threat thereof) is not a Material
Casualty or Condemnation, or (ii) such casualty or condemnation (or threat
thereof) is a Material Casualty or Condemnation, but Purchaser elects not to
terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, then the Closing shall take place as
provided herein without abatement of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign
to Purchaser at Closing all of the rights and interests of Seller in and to any
insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which may be paid or payable to Seller
on account of any such occurrence; provided, however, that Seller shall pay to
Purchaser in cash at Closing the amount of any deductible under any existing
insurance policies applicable to such occurrence.

Closing, shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to be delivered, whether

agreement between the parties, and no promise, representation, warranty, or
covenant not included in this Agreement or any such referenced agreements has
been or is relied upon by either party. Each party has relied upon its own
examination of the full Agreement and the provisions thereof, and the counsel of

expressly contained in this Agreement. No modification or amendment of this
Agreement shall be of any force or effect unless made in writing and executed by
both Purchaser and Seller. In the event that any litigation arises hereunder, it
is specifically stipulated that this Agreement shall be interpreted and
construed according to the laws of the State of Florida. Further, the prevailing
party in any litigation between the parties shall be entitled to recover, as a

agree that the venue for any action or lawsuit arising under this Agreement
shall be the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial Circuit in and for Xxxx
County, Florida.
ARTICLE XVI
MISCELLANEOUS
16.1 The article headings contained in this Agreement are for
purposes of identification only and shall not be considered in construing this
Agreement.
16.2 This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of Purchaser
hereunder, may be assigned by Purchaser to any related party or affiliate of

original party designated as the Purchaser shall be released from all duties and
obligations hereunder and Seller agrees to close the transaction contemplated
hereunder with the assignee of Purchaser. This Agreement may not be assigned by
Seller.
16.3 All references in this Agreement to "the date hereof" or similar
references shall be deemed to refer to the last date, in point of time, on which
all parties hereto have executed and received a fully executed copy of this
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes an offer by Purchaser to purchase the
Property on the terms and conditions and for the Purchase Price specified
herein. Unless sooner terminated or withdrawn by notice in writing to Seller,
this offer shall automatically lapse and terminate at 5:00 p.m. Central Time on
September 23, 2004, unless, prior to such time, Seller has returned to Escrow
Agent two (2) fully executed copies of this Agreement.
16.4 Words of any gender used in this Agreement shall be held and
construed to include any other gender, and words of a singular number shall be
held to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context requires
otherwise.
16.5 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
16.6 All exhibits described in this Agreement are by this reference
fully incorporated herein and made a part hereof by reference for all purposes.

information as the Internal Revenue Service may by form or regulation require
from time to time, and (b) furnish both Seller and Purchaser with a written
statement showing the name and address of the Title Company and the information
shown on such return with respect to the transaction. This return shall be filed
to ensure that the parties to this transaction will be in compliance with
Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended from time to time and
as further set forth in any regulations promulgated thereunder.
16.9 Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall, without the written consent
of the other, publicize this Agreement or the sale contemplated by this
Agreement. All news and press releases, advertisements, and other public
dissemination concerning this Agreement or the sale contemplated by this
Agreement shall be jointly coordinated by Seller and Purchaser and shall be
subject to both Seller's and Purchaser's written approval. Seller shall not
disclose to any third party (other than Seller's lender, employees, agents,
attorneys, investors and brokers, all of which shall be advised of the
requirements of this Section 16.9) the terms of this Agreement, including
without limitation the Purchase Price, and such agreement on the part of Seller
shall survive the Closing Date and shall not merge into the closing of this
transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article shall not be deemed to
prevent the disclosure following the Closing of information which is readily
available to the public at large.
